Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technology of instruments, in particular to a temperature and pressure coaxial water altimeter. Background Art

[0002] A water level gauge is an instrument that measures both temperature and pressure. It features a bimetallic temperature sensor for temperature measurement and a Bourdon tube and pressure gauge for pressure measurement. It combines a bimetallic thermometer with a pressure gauge. It can simultaneously monitor the temperature and pressure of various liquids and gases at production sites.

[0003] The temperature pointer and pressure pointer of the existing water level gauge are connected to two axes with a certain distance respectively. Figure 5 As shown, the dial scales of each display object are set separately, resulting in a dial scale range of only 180° at most, dense scale lines, and low reading accuracy. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a temperature and pressure coaxial water level gauge to improve the reading accuracy of the water level gauge.

[0005] To achieve this purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions.

[0006] A temperature and pressure coaxial water level gauge comprises a temperature detection component and a pressure detection component. The pressure detection component comprises a movement, which comprises a core shaft constituting a pressure pointer shaft. The temperature detection component comprises a temperature pointer shaft, which is coaxial with the core shaft of the pressure detection component.

[0007] The present invention adopts the above-mentioned technical solution. By setting the temperature pointer axis of the temperature detection component and the core axis of the pressure detection component coaxially, the rotation centers of the two pointers are made concentric, and the scale range of the dial can be expanded from the original 180 degrees to 270 degrees, so that the temperature reading accuracy and the pressure reading accuracy can be improved by 1.5 times, thereby improving the measurement accuracy.

[0008] Preferably, a through hole is formed on the core shaft, the through hole extends along the axis of the core shaft, and the temperature pointer shaft is inserted into the through hole.

[0009] By forming a through hole along the axis of the core shaft, the temperature pointer shaft can pass through the through hole, making the pointer shaft coaxial with the core shaft, and making the rotation centers of the temperature pointer and the pressure pointer concentric, the scale range of the dial is expanded from the original 180 degrees to 270 degrees, and the temperature reading accuracy and pressure reading accuracy can be improved by 1.5 times.

[0010] Preferably, the temperature detection assembly includes a temperature sensing element, a rotating shaft, an angle spring and a temperature pointer, one end of the rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the free end of the temperature sensing element, and the other end is fixedly connected to one end of the angle spring, the other end of the angle spring is connected to the temperature pointer shaft, and the temperature pointer is fixedly connected to the free end of the temperature pointer shaft.

[0011] In this way, the temperature pointer can rotate synchronously with the pointer shaft. When the free end of the sensing element is deformed, the rotation of the shaft drives the rotation of the shaft, so that the pointer fixed on the pointer shaft rotates synchronously to display the current temperature value.

[0012] Preferably, the pressure detection assembly also includes a joint, a Bourdon tube and a pressure pointer, the mounting portion of the Bourdon tube is sealedly connected to the joint, the free end of the Bourdon tube is connected to the movement, the core shaft constitutes the pressure pointer shaft, and the pressure pointer is fixedly connected to the free end of the core shaft.

[0013] In this way, when the Bourdon tube is deformed under the action of the pressure medium, the elastic force is transmitted to the movement connected to it. Under the action of the transmission mechanism of the movement, the core shaft of the movement rotates, driving the pressure pointer connected to the core shaft to rotate, displaying the current pressure value.

[0014] Preferably, a thermometer mounting hole is formed on the joint, and the thermometer mounting hole extends along the axis of the joint. A Bourdon tube mounting hole is formed on one side of the joint, and the Bourdon tube mounting hole is communicated with the thermometer mounting hole.

[0015] By forming a thermometer mounting hole on the joint and arranging the thermometer mounting hole along the axis of the joint, instead of the original eccentrically arranged thermometer mounting hole, the outer dimensions of the joint are reduced, and materials are saved. The Bourdon tube mounting hole and the thermometer mounting hole are communicated, so that the thermometer mounting hole becomes the air inlet hole of the Bourdon tube, the number of openings is reduced, and the production difficulty is reduced.

[0016] Preferably, the temperature detection assembly also includes a protective tube, the rotating shaft and the temperature sensing element are both located inside the protective tube, the protective tube is passed through the thermometer mounting hole of the joint, a sealing plug is welded on the protective tube, and the sealing plug is also welded to the end of the joint to seal the protective tube and the joint.

[0017] A protective tube is set to protect the temperature measurement component from being contaminated by the medium to ensure measurement accuracy. The protective tube is passed through the thermometer mounting hole of the joint, and the gap between the thermometer mounting hole and the protective tube is sealed by end face welding to avoid air leakage in the air inlet channel of the Bourdon tube and ensure the accuracy of the measured pressure value.

[0018] Preferably, a dial is fixedly connected to one side of the joint, and a through hole is formed on the dial for the temperature pointer shaft and the core shaft to pass through, so that the pressure pointer installed at the free end of the core shaft and the temperature pointer installed at the free end of the temperature pointer shaft are both located outside the dial.

[0019] Fix the dial to avoid shaking during use, and set through holes on the dial for the free ends of the core shaft and the temperature pointer shaft to pass through, so that the pressure pointer and thermometer are located on the outside of the dial, and the temperature and pressure values ​​are displayed in conjunction with the dial scale.

[0020] Preferably, the temperature pointer shaft and the core shaft are concentric with the dial.

[0021] The accuracy of the reading is ensured by arranging the temperature pointer shaft and the core shaft concentrically with the dial.

[0022] Preferably, the top of the joint is connected to a shell, and the dial, pressure pointer and temperature pointer are all located in the shell.

[0023] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: by forming a through-hole along the axis of the core shaft of the pressure measuring assembly, through which the temperature pointer shaft can pass, the temperature pointer shaft is made coaxial with the core shaft, i.e., the rotation centers of the temperature pointer and the pressure pointer are concentric, thereby expanding the scale range of the dial from the original 180 degrees to 270 degrees, and improving the accuracy of both temperature and pressure readings by 1.5 times. Furthermore, by forming a thermometer mounting hole in the joint and locating the thermometer mounting hole along the axis of the joint, replacing the original eccentrically positioned thermometer mounting hole, the joint's overall dimensions are reduced, saving material. Furthermore, by aligning the Bourdon tube mounting hole with the thermometer mounting hole, the thermometer mounting hole serves as the Bourdon tube's air inlet, reducing the number of openings and simplifying production.
