Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The excitation device of a miniaturized electromagnetic flow sensor described in the present invention relates to the technical fields of miniaturized electromagnetic flow sensors, accurate flow measurement, water metering, heat metering, etc., and particularly to the fields of accurate measurement, heat metering, flow and heat balance of central heating systems and water system air conditioners, as well as urban water supply and drainage, agricultural irrigation, and flow metering in production processes. The present invention is applicable to balanced heat meters, heat metering devices with built-in control valves, heating measurement and control terminals with integrated flow sensors and control valves, miniaturized electromagnetic flow meters, water meters, and other products. Background Art
[0002] Electromagnetic flowmeter is a flow measurement instrument based on Faraday's electromagnetic induction principle. Its basic principle is: when a fluid with a conductive medium passes through a magnetic field, the fluid cuts the magnetic lines of force and generates an induced potential in the vertical direction of the magnetic field. The amplitude of the induced potential is proportional to the flow rate of the fluid, thereby obtaining the flow rate of the fluid and then the flow rate of the fluid. In order to generate a magnetic field, an excitation coil is installed around the measuring cavity. The generated magnetic field passes through the fluid, thereby generating an induced potential in the fluid. Electrodes are installed at the positive and negative positions of the induced potential to measure the magnitude of the induced potential. Electromagnetic flowmeters are widely used in flow measurement and have the advantages of high measurement accuracy, good linearity, no structural parts in the measuring cavity, and resistance to pollutants.
[0003] Usually, in electromagnetic flow sensors, the electrodes are arranged symmetrically in the measuring tube, and the electrodes are led out directly in opposite directions. For example, in industrial electromagnetic flow meters, the lead-out structure is complex, which is not conducive to electromagnetic shielding, occupies a large space, and is not conducive to miniaturization. As for the electrodes and lead-out devices of miniaturized and low-cost electromagnetic flow sensors, patent ZL201210301748.6 "Electrode device of electromagnetic flow meter" discloses an arrangement structure, including a measuring tube, a first electrode, a second electrode, a first lead, a second lead, a signal conditioning circuit, and a printed circuit board; the first electrode and the second electrode are respectively located on both sides of the inner wall of the measuring tube, and a smooth surface is formed on the inner wall of the measuring tube; one end of the first lead and the second lead are respectively connected to the first electrode and the second electrode, and the other end of the first lead and the second lead are connected to the signal conditioning circuit, and the signal conditioning circuit is arranged on the printed circuit board. The materials used for the first electrode and the second electrode include conductive plastics, which are manufactured by injection molding; the measuring tube is made of insulating plastics and manufactured by injection molding. Patent ZL201910472847.2 "An Electrode Device for an Electromagnetic Flow Sensor" discloses another arrangement structure, including a body, a lead, a first electrode, a second electrode, a first conductive plastic, a second conductive plastic, a temperature sensor, and a conductive spring. The body includes a horizontal through hole, the first electrode and the second electrode are respectively located on the left and right sides of the through hole, the first conductive plastic and the second conductive plastic are located above the through hole, a temperature sensor is arranged at the lower part of the lead, and a conductive spring is arranged on the side. The first electrode is connected to the first conductive plastic, the second electrode is connected to the second conductive plastic, and the first conductive plastic is connected to the lead through a conductive spring and a lead. For miniaturized, low-cost electromagnetic flow sensors, the magnetic conductive components are generally arranged outside the housing. Patent 201910471279.4 "An Integrated Device of an Electromagnetic Flow Sensor and a Valve" discloses a magnetic circuit arrangement method, including a valve core, a valve body, a coil, a W-shaped steel sleeve, a first magnetic conductive column and a second magnetic conductive column; the valve body forms a cavity with a top and front and rear openings, the valve core is located in the cavity and can perform horizontal rotation; the valve core is provided with a horizontal through hole connecting the front and rear openings of the valve body. The valve core includes a U-shaped first electrode and a second electrode which are placed opposite to each other, and are electrically connected to the printed circuit board through the first conductive plastic and the second conductive plastic; the coil is placed in the W-shaped cavity of the W-shaped steel sleeve, located below the valve body, with a magnetic conductive plate provided in between; the first magnetic conductive column and the second magnetic conductive column are respectively located on the left and right sides of the valve body, the lower part is respectively connected to the left and right sides of the W-shaped steel sleeve, and the upper part is connected to the left and right sides of the magnetic conductive cover above the valve body.
[0004] In the prior art, the magnetic conductive component below the measuring cavity is arranged outside the outer shell. Since the outer shell is made of conductive material, an additional insulating layer needs to be added, which makes the distance between the measuring cavity through hole and the magnetic conductive component farther, increasing the magnetic gap. At the same time, the prior art does not set a magnetic conductive device at the electrode lead-out position above the measuring cavity, which makes the magnetic gap larger and the magnetic field strength in the measuring cavity through hole is difficult to increase, affecting the signal sensitivity of the electromagnetic flow sensor. In order to increase the magnetic field strength, it is generally considered to set a magnetic conductive device above and below the measuring cavity through hole, but due to structural and space limitations, this method is difficult to implement.
[0005] In the prior art, the electrodes and the lead-out device are arranged in the measuring cavity, and the measuring cavity is not provided with a magnetic field isolation device, so that the lead-out device of the electrode signal is in the distribution of the excitation magnetic field. Since the electromagnetic flow sensor adopts AC excitation technology, the lead-out device of the electrode signal has a projected area in the magnetic field, so that when the excitation magnetic field changes, a spike-shaped induced potential is generated on the lead-out device of the electrode signal. This interference signal is called differential interference. Differential interference is a common interference of electromagnetic flow sensors and will affect the sampling accuracy of the signal. In order to reduce differential interference, on the one hand, the method of reducing the projected area of the electrode device can be adopted, but due to the limitations of the structure and dimensional accuracy of the components, this method cannot completely eliminate the interference; on the other hand, the electrode can be directly led out of the shell. This method is commonly used in the structure of industrial electromagnetic flow sensors, but it cannot achieve a miniaturized and low-cost flow sensor.
[0006] With the development of smart heating systems and the need for energy management, the measurement, digital management and precise scheduling of thermal energy have become the key to energy conservation. A method is invented that can achieve high-precision flow and heat measurement to meet the needs of smart heating systems for heat measurement, digital management and scheduling. The existing technology has not yet seen a method to reduce differential interference and reduce magnetic gap in a miniaturized and low-cost solution.
[0007] In summary, the excitation device of the miniaturized electromagnetic flow sensor in the prior art has the following problems:
[0008] 1) The magnetic gap is large, affecting the signal sensitivity;
[0009] 2) The measuring cavity is not equipped with a magnetic field isolation device, resulting in differential interference. Summary of the invention

[0017] A shell is arranged around the measuring cavity, and the shell includes magnetic conductive parts, such as soft iron sheets, magnetic conductive columns, magnetic conductive bolts, magnetic conductive rivets, etc.
[0018] The magnetic conductive part of the shell contacts with the U-shaped magnetic conductive plate, and the magnetic conductive part of the shell contacts with the coil cover.
[0019] A shell is arranged around the measuring cavity, and the shell 1 is made of magnetic conductive materials, such as soft iron, magnetic conductive stainless steel, magnetic conductive plastic, etc.
[0020] The shell is in contact with the U-shaped magnetic conductive plate, and the shell is in contact with the coil cover.
[0021] A sealing ring is arranged at the upper opening of the cavity of the shell to achieve sealing of the upper opening of the cavity.

[0036] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0037] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 , which are the cross-sectional view and exploded view of the first embodiment of the excitation device of the miniaturized electromagnetic flow sensor of the present invention.
[0038] This embodiment includes a housing 1, a measuring cavity 2, a first electrode 3a, a second electrode 3b, a U-shaped magnetic conductive plate 4, a coil 5, a sealing ring 6, a magnetic conductive body 7, a non-magnetic conductive body 8, and a coil cover 9.
[0039] The housing 1 forms a cavity connecting the flow channel inlet and the flow channel outlet, and a measuring cavity 2 with a through hole is arranged in the cavity. The flow channel inlet, the through hole of the measuring cavity 2, and the flow channel outlet are smoothly connected in sequence, so that the flow shape of the fluid medium remains stable. The first electrode 3a and the second electrode 3b are arranged on both sides of the measuring cavity 2 in a vertical direction. The contact surface between the electrode and the fluid medium is a vertical rectangle and forms a large contact area to reduce the noise caused by the impact of the fluid medium. The first electrode 3a and the second electrode 3b are injection molded with conductive plastic, and the measuring cavity 2 is secondary injection molded with insulating plastic and the electrode, so that the electrode and the measuring cavity wall are tightly combined to avoid water seepage. The housing 1 is made of conductive materials with magnetic conductivity, such as soft iron, magnetic stainless steel, etc., to achieve both electrical shielding and magnetic conductivity.
[0040] A protruding electrode lead-out mechanism is provided on the upper part of the measuring cavity 2, and a U-shaped magnetic conductive plate 4 is provided at the same time. The first electrode 3a and the second electrode 3b are surrounded by the protrusion of the measuring cavity 2 and extend from the electrode lead-out hole of the U-shaped magnetic conductive plate 4. The U-shaped magnetic conductive plate 4 and the housing 1 are made of magnetic conductive materials, such as soft iron, magnetic conductive stainless steel, etc., and contact each other to form a magnetic conductive loop. Since the electrodes are arranged vertically, the routing projection area of the electrode signal is minimized. At the same time, the magnetic shielding formed by the U-shaped magnetic conductive plate 4 and the housing makes the magnetic field above the U-shaped magnetic conductive plate 4 negligible. When the magnetic field strength changes, the induced voltage of the electrode lead can be ignored, thereby reducing the differential effect.
[0041] The bottom of the measuring cavity 2 is provided with a coil 5, a magnet 7, a non-magnet 8 and a coil cover 9. The magnet 7 and the U-shaped magnetic plate 4 form the two poles of the magnetic field and are close to the through hole of the measuring cavity 2, so that a strong magnetic field can be formed in the through hole of the measuring cavity 2, which is conducive to increasing the induced potential strength on the electrode and improving the signal sensitivity. The coil 5 is annular and is placed in the U-shaped coil cover 9. The coil 5 surrounds the magnet 7, and the opening of the coil cover 9 is in contact with the shell 1. The magnet 7 and the coil cover 9 are made of magnetic conductive materials, such as soft iron, magnetic conductive stainless steel, etc., and the non-magnet 8 is made of non-magnetic conductive materials to avoid the formation of a magnetic conductive loop between the magnet 7 and the shell 1. A magnetic conductive loop is formed in sequence between the U-shaped magnetic plate 4, the shell 1, the coil cover 9, and the magnet 7, thereby providing the magnetic field required by the measuring cavity 2. The shell 1, the magnet 7 and the non-magnet 8 are made of stainless steel and connected as a whole by welding, bolts or other connection methods.
[0042] See also Figure 4 , is a cross-sectional view of another embodiment of the excitation device of the miniaturized electromagnetic flow sensor of the present invention.
[0043] This embodiment includes a housing 1 , a measuring cavity 2 , a first electrode 3 a , a second electrode 3 b , a U-shaped magnetic conductive plate 4 , a coil 5 , a sealing ring 6 , a magnetic conductive body 7 , a coil cover 9 , and a magnetic conductive column 10 .
[0044] The housing 1 forms a cavity connecting the flow channel inlet and the flow channel outlet, and a measuring cavity 2 with a through hole is arranged in the cavity. The flow channel inlet, the through hole of the measuring cavity 2, and the flow channel outlet are smoothly connected in sequence, so that the flow shape of the fluid medium remains stable. The first electrode 3a and the second electrode 3b are arranged on both sides of the measuring cavity 2 in a vertical direction. The contact surface between the electrode and the fluid medium is a vertical rectangle and forms a large contact area to reduce the noise caused by the impact of the fluid medium. The first electrode 3a and the second electrode 3b are injection molded with conductive plastic, and the measuring cavity 2 is secondary injection molded with insulating plastic and electrodes, so that the electrode and the measuring cavity wall are tightly combined to avoid water seepage. The main body of the housing 1 is made of conductive plastic to achieve electrical shielding. The housing 1 is embedded with a magnetic conductive column 10, and the magnetic conductive column 10 is made of magnetic conductive material to achieve a magnetic conductive function.
[0045] A protruding electrode lead-out mechanism is provided at the top of the measuring cavity 2, and a U-shaped magnetic conductive plate 4 is provided at the same time. The first electrode 3a and the second electrode 3b are surrounded by the protrusion of the measuring cavity 2 and extend from the electrode lead-out hole of the U-shaped magnetic conductive plate 4. The U-shaped magnetic conductive plate 4 is made of magnetic conductive material, such as soft iron, magnetic conductive stainless steel, etc., and contacts the magnetic conductive column 10 to form a magnetic conductive loop. Since the electrodes are arranged vertically, the routing projection area of the electrode signal is minimized, and the U-shaped magnetic conductive plate 4 forms a magnetic shield, so that the magnetic field above the U-shaped magnetic conductive plate 4 can be ignored. When the magnetic field strength changes, the induced voltage of the electrode lead can be ignored, thereby reducing the differential effect.
[0046] The bottom of the measuring cavity 2 is provided with a coil 5, a magnetizer 7 and a coil cover 9. The magnetizer 7 and the U-shaped magnetic plate 4 form the two poles of the magnetic field and are close to the through hole of the measuring cavity 2, which can increase the magnetic field in the through hole of the measuring cavity 2, so as to increase the induced potential strength on the electrode and improve the signal sensitivity. The coil 5 is annular and is placed in the U-shaped coil cover 9. The coil 5 surrounds the magnetizer 7, and the opening of the coil cover 9 is in contact with the magnetic column 10. The magnetizer 7 and the coil cover 9 are made of magnetic conductive materials, such as soft iron, magnetic conductive stainless steel, etc. The protruding part at the bottom of the measuring cavity separates the magnetic circuit of the magnetizer 7 and the housing 1. A magnetic conductive circuit is formed in sequence between the U-shaped magnetic plate 4, the housing 1, the coil cover 9, and the magnetizer 7, thereby providing the magnetic field required for the measuring cavity 2.
