Method for manufacturing gas cylinders

摘要

Disclosed is a method for manufacturing gas cylinders. The disclosed method for manufacturing gas cylinders comprises: a) a step of producing a liner using a liner blower machine; b) a step of applying an adhesive to the threads of the produced liner; c) a step of coupling a bushing to the threads of the liner; d) a step of leaving the liner having undergone step c) for 30 minutes to 2 hours at room temperature so as to naturally harden the adhesive; e) a liner-flaming step of heat-treating the outer surface of the liner with plasma; f) a step of coupling a shaft to the liner; g) a winding step of mixing multiple fiberglass strands with a resin and a hardening agent, and wrapping the mixture around the outer surface of the liner; h) a dry-hardening step of drying the cylinder made of the composite material and having undergone the winding step for 70 to 90 minutes at a temperature of 70° C. to 90° C.; i) a cooling step of leaving the cylinder made of the composite material for 15 to 40 minutes at room temperature so as to lower the surface temperature of the cylinder having undergone the dry-hardening step to a level of 35° C. or lower; j) a step of separating the shaft from the cylinder made of the composite material; k) a step of assembling a valve to the bushing installed in the cylinder made of the composite material; and l) a step of checking the state of the gas cylinder including the cylinder made of the composite material.

1. A method for manufacturing gas cylinders comprises:
a) manufacturing a liner, comprising
forming the liner into a cylinder using a liner blower machine;extracting the liner from the liner blower machine using a liner extracting robot;removing scraps on a surface of the liner;maintaining the liner at room temperature for 4 to 6 hours and curing the liner; andchecking dimensions of the liner; b) applying an adhesive to a thread of the liner; c) coupling a bushing to the thread of the liner; d) maintaining the liner having undergone c) at room temperature for 30 minutes to 2 hours so as to naturally harden the adhesive; e) performing a liner-flaming by a heat-treating an outer surface of the liner with plasma; f) coupling a shaft to the liner; g) mixing multiple fiberglass strands with a resin and a hardening agent, and winding the mixture around the outer surface of the liner to form the gas cylinder; h) dry-hardening the gas cylinder made of the composite material undergone the winding for 70 to 90 minutes at a temperature of 70° C. to 90° C.; i) cooling by maintaining the gas cylinder made of the composite material at room temperature for 15 to 40 minutes so as to lower the surface temperature of the gas cylinder having undergone the dry-hardening to a level of 35° C. or lower; j) separating the shaft from the gas cylinder made of the composite material; k) assembling a valve onto the bushing installed in the gas cylinder made of the composite material; and l) checking the state of the gas cylinder including the gas cylinder made of the composite material, comprising performing a pressure resistance test by maintaining the gas cylinder made of the composite material for a predetermined time under pressure between 2 Mpa and 4 Mpa and checking the pressure resistance of the gas cylinder made of the composite material; and performing an airtightness test by maintaining the gas cylinder under pressure between 1 Mpa and 2 Mpa, placing the gas cylinder into a water tub filled with soapy bubbles, and then checking the airtightness of the gas cylinder.
