[0023] See also Figures 1 to 2 The present invention provides a quantitative liquid feeding device 1, which uses a transfer device 12 to allow the liquid in the liquid reservoir 11 to enter the liquid storage chamber 121 in a quantitative manner under the action of gravity. The liquid in the liquid storage chamber 121 automatically flows into the reaction pool 2 set at a lower position under the action of gravity. The structure is simple and does not require electric energy to achieve liquid transportation. The manufacturing cost and operating cost are relatively low; and under the electrical control of the controller (not shown in the figure), the liquid in the liquid reservoir 11 can also be automatically and quantitatively transported to the reaction pool 2.
[0024] See also Figure 1The present invention provides a quantitative liquid inlet device 1 suitable for online chemical analysis of water vapor, comprising: a liquid reservoir 11, a transfer device 12, a liquid inlet pipe 13, a liquid discharge pipe 14, a first electrically controlled valve 15, a second electrically controlled valve 16, a liquid level detection element 17 and a controller; the shape of the liquid reservoir 11 can be any shape that can accommodate liquid, such as a cylinder, a rectangular parallelepiped, etc., and a liquid outlet 111 is processed on the lowest surface of the bottom wall of the liquid reservoir 11; the transfer device 12 is formed with a liquid storage chamber 121, and the top wall of the liquid storage chamber 121 is lower than the lowest surface of the bottom wall of the liquid reservoir 11; the shape of the liquid storage chamber 121 can be any shape that can accommodate liquid, such as a cylinder, a rectangular parallelepiped, etc. In this embodiment, in order to facilitate processing and manufacturing, Preferably, the liquid storage chamber 121 is set to be cylindrical; a liquid inlet 122 and a liquid discharge port 123 are processed on the bottom wall of the liquid storage chamber 121, and the liquid inlet 122 is connected to the liquid outlet 111 through the liquid inlet pipe 13; the liquid discharge port 123 is connected to the reaction tank 2 through the liquid discharge pipe 14, and the height of the liquid discharge port 123 is higher than the highest height of the liquid level in the reaction tank 2; wherein the liquid discharge pipe 14 and the liquid inlet pipe 13 can be a hose or a hard pipe, preferably, the liquid inlet pipe 13 and the liquid inlet 122, and the liquid discharge pipe 14 and the liquid discharge port 123 are required to be sealed, which can reduce the overflow and leakage at the liquid inlet 122 and the liquid discharge port 123 during the liquid delivery process, which affects the accuracy of the liquid delivery; the first electric control valve 15 controls To control the on-off of the liquid inlet pipe 13, the first electrically-controlled valve 15 can be arranged at the liquid outlet 111 of the liquid reservoir 11, or at the liquid inlet 122 of the liquid storage chamber 121, or on the liquid inlet pipe 13; preferably, in this embodiment, the first electrically-controlled valve 15 is arranged on the liquid inlet pipe 13, and is close to one end of the liquid inlet 122; such an arrangement facilitates the installation and connection of the first electrically-controlled valve 15, and is easy to control the timeliness of the liquid inlet on-off, thereby improving the liquid inlet accuracy; the second electrically-controlled valve 16 controls the on-off of the liquid discharge pipe 14, and the second electrically-controlled valve 16 can be arranged at the liquid discharge port 123 of the liquid storage chamber 121, or on the liquid discharge pipe 14; preferably, in this embodiment, the second electrically-controlled valve 16 is arranged on the liquid discharge pipe 14, and close to one end of the drain port 123; such a configuration facilitates the installation and connection of the second electrically controlled valve 16, and is easy to control the timeliness of the drain on and off, thereby improving the accuracy of liquid discharge; the liquid level detection component 17 is installed on the transferor 12 to detect the liquid in place in the liquid storage chamber 121, and the installation method can be any connection and fixing method such as snap connection and threaded connection. The liquid level detection component 17 can be installed on the inner wall of the liquid storage chamber 121, or on the outer wall of the liquid storage chamber 121; the controller can be set on the transferor 12, or at any other operable display position, and the first electrically controlled valve 15, the second electrically controlled valve 16 and the liquid level detection component 17 are all electrically connected to the controller.
[0025] When the quantitative liquid inlet device 1 is working, the controller controls the first electrically controlled valve 15 to open, and the liquid flows from the liquid reservoir 11 set at the upper position through the liquid inlet pipe 13 through the liquid outlet 111 to the liquid inlet 122 in the lower liquid storage chamber 121, and then enters the liquid storage chamber 121. When the liquid level detection member 17 detects that the liquid in the liquid storage chamber 121 reaches the set capacity, the liquid level detection member 17 sends a signal to the controller, and the controller controls the first electrically controlled valve 15 to close, stop the liquid from entering the liquid storage chamber 121, and complete the quantitative liquid storage in the liquid storage chamber 121. At the same time, the controller controls the second electrically controlled valve 16 to open, and the liquid in the liquid storage chamber 121 enters the drain pipe 14 through the drain port 123, and flows into the reaction tank 2 set at the lower position through the drain pipe 14; when the second electrically controlled valve 16 runs to the set time value (the liquid in the liquid storage chamber 121 can be completely discharged within the set time value), the electric signal is fed back to the controller, and the controller controls the second electrically controlled valve 16 to close, thereby completing a quantitative delivery of the liquid in the liquid reservoir 11 to the reaction tank 2, and this cycle is repeated until multiple quantitative automatic delivery of liquid is completed. The quantitative liquid feeding device 1 is set at a height difference between the liquid reservoir 11, the transfer device 12 and the reaction tank 2, so that the liquid forms a flow from a high place to a low place under the action of its own weight, which simplifies the overall structure of the device and reduces the cost. At the same time, by setting a controller to control the first electrically controlled valve 15, the second electrically controlled valve 16 and the liquid level detection member 17, the liquid in the liquid reservoir 11 is automatically and quantitatively delivered to the reaction tank 2.
[0026] See also Figure 1 In one example of the quantitative liquid feeding device 1 of the present invention, a liquid level adjustment assembly 124 is further provided within the liquid storage chamber 121 to adjust the liquid capacity within the liquid storage chamber 121. The liquid level adjustment assembly 124 can be a float-type liquid level control structure, a static pressure-type liquid level control structure, or any other structure capable of controlling the liquid level within the liquid storage chamber 121 and, thereby, controlling the liquid capacity. This configuration enables the liquid storage chamber 121 to meet the requirements of different quantitative liquid supply values, thereby expanding the scope of application of the liquid storage chamber 121.
[0027] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2In an example of the quantitative liquid feeding device 1 of the present invention, the liquid level adjustment component 124 includes a float 1241 and a float stopper 1242. The float stopper 1242 is installed on the inner wall of the liquid storage chamber 121. The installation method includes but is not limited to a threaded connection. The float stopper 1242 can be adjusted up and down along the height direction of the inner wall of the liquid storage chamber 121. The outer wall of the float stopper 1242 is cylindrical and matches and abuts against the inner wall of the liquid storage chamber 121. An air circulation hole 12421 is opened on the upper surface of the float stopper 1242 through the thickness direction. The inner and outer cavities of the liquid storage chamber 121 are Air flow is achieved through the air circulation hole 12421, and the cross-sectional shape of the air circulation hole 12421 can be any shape such as circular, triangular or long strip; the float 1241 floats on the liquid surface between the float limiter 1242 and the bottom wall of the liquid storage chamber 121, and the float 1241 can be sealed and abutted against the lower surface of the float limiter 1242 after floating into position. The cross-sectional area of the float 1241 is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the liquid storage chamber 121, and the cross-sectional shape of the float 1241 can be any shape such as circular, rectangular, etc. that can make the float 1241 float on the liquid surface. When a fixed amount of liquid needs to be added to the liquid storage chamber 121, the float stopper 1242 is first moved to adjust the set liquid volume of the liquid storage chamber 121. Liquid then enters the liquid storage chamber 121, and the float 1241 rises as the liquid level increases. Simultaneously, air within the liquid storage chamber 121 is discharged outside the liquid storage chamber 121 through the air circulation hole 12421, reducing the gas pressure during the float 1241's ascent. When the float 1241 rises to abut against the bottom surface of the float stopper 1242 and the float 1241 is pressed against the air circulation hole 12421, the space between the float stopper 1242 and the bottom wall of the liquid storage chamber 121 is filled with a fixed amount of liquid, completing the fixed amount of liquid in the liquid storage chamber 121. Subsequently, the liquid level detection element 17 sends a feedback signal to the controller, which controls the first electrically controlled valve 15 to close, stopping the flow of liquid into the liquid storage chamber 121. When the liquid is discharged, the float 1241 moves downward as the liquid level drops, and disengages from the air circulation hole 12421. Air enters the liquid storage chamber 121 again from the air circulation hole 12421, destroying the vacuum state in the liquid storage chamber 121, which is conducive to the smooth discharge of the liquid in the liquid storage chamber 121.
[0028] See also Figure 1 In one example of the quantitative liquid inlet device 1 of the present invention, the liquid storage chamber 121 is a see-through structure, and scale lines 1211 for measuring liquid volume are provided on the sidewalls of the liquid storage chamber 121. The liquid storage chamber 121 can be entirely made of a see-through material, such as glass or PPT, or only the side of the sidewall of the liquid storage chamber 121 marked with scale lines 1211 can be see-through, without specific limitation. This arrangement facilitates adjustment of the liquid level adjustment assembly 124 and allows for more precise adjustment of the liquid level limit height.
[0029] See also Figure 1 In one example of the quantitative liquid inlet device 1 of the present invention, the inner wall of the liquid storage chamber 121 is machined with internal threads 1212, the height of which matches the scale height of the liquid storage chamber 121. The outer wall of the float stopper 1242 is provided with external threads 12422, which correspond to the internal threads 1212. The float stopper 1242 is adjusted up and down on the inner wall of the liquid storage chamber 121 through the screw drive of the threads. This arrangement provides a simple connection structure and facilitates adjustment.
[0030] See also Figure 1 In one example of the quantitative liquid inlet device 1 of the present invention, the float stopper 1242 is sealed to the inner wall of the liquid storage chamber 121 via a tapered thread. The tapered thread improves the sealing performance between the float stopper 1242 and the inner wall of the liquid storage chamber 121. During the process of liquid entering the liquid storage chamber 121, the good sealing performance between the float stopper 1242 and the inner wall of the liquid storage chamber 121 can ensure that the pressure in the liquid storage chamber 121 is consistent with the pressure in the liquid reservoir 11. When the float 1241 abuts the air circulation hole 12421 on the float stopper 1242, the liquid cannot further enter the liquid storage chamber 121, thereby further improving the accuracy of the liquid volume in the liquid storage chamber 121.
[0031] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one example of the quantitative liquid inlet device 1 of the present invention, the upper surface of the float stopper 1242 is provided with a groove 12423, which engages with a screwdriver. Groove 12423 can be a straight-line, cross-shaped, or other internal or external hexagonal shape, as long as it matches the working portion of the corresponding screwdriver. The provision of groove 12423 greatly facilitates the vertical adjustment of the float stopper 1242 on the inner wall of the liquid storage chamber 121.
[0032] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2In one example of the quantitative liquid inlet device 1 of the present invention, the liquid level detection member 17 is a magnetic induction ring that is movably mounted on the outer wall of the liquid storage chamber 121. The mounting method can be a movable snap connection, a threaded connection, or any other method that can be adjusted up and down along the outer wall of the liquid storage chamber 121. The upper end surface of the magnetic induction ring is always flush with the lower end surface of the float stop 1242. The float 1241 contains magnetic material, which can be embedded in the outer wall of the float 1241 or sealed inside the float 1241. When the float 1241 abuts the float stop 1242, the magnetic induction ring can magnetically sense the position of the float 1241 and feed this information back to the controller, which controls the first electrically controlled valve 15 to close in a timely manner. The position height of the float 1241 is determined by magnetic induction between the magnetic induction ring and the float 1241. This method has a simple structure, high control accuracy, and low cost.
[0033] See also Figure 1 In an example of the quantitative liquid inlet device 1 of the present invention, a liquid sensor 18 is connected to the discharge pipe 14, and the liquid sensor 18 is electrically connected to the controller. The liquid sensor 18 can be connected at any position along the length of the discharge pipe 14. When the liquid is discharged, the liquid sensor 18 can sense the flow of liquid in the discharge pipe 14, indicating that the liquid in the liquid reservoir 11 has not been completely discharged. When the liquid is completely discharged, there is no longer any liquid flowing in the discharge pipe 14, so the liquid sensor 18 cannot detect the flow of liquid. At this time, the liquid sensor 18 feeds back a signal to the controller, and the controller controls the second electrically controlled valve 16 to close in time. By providing the liquid sensor 18, the second electrically controlled valve 16 can be automatically closed in time, which facilitates the control of the second electrically controlled valve 16 and improves timeliness. At the same time, when blockage occurs during the discharge of liquid in the discharge pipe 14, when the second electric control valve 16 is open, the liquid sensor 18 detects that no liquid is flowing out, and a signal can be fed back to the controller. The controller can issue an alarm message to promptly remind the operator to check the pipeline fault so that the equipment can continue to operate normally.
[0034] See also Figure 1In an example of the quantitative liquid feeding device 1 of the present invention, the discharge pipe 14 is provided with a liquid storage part 141, a detection part 142 and a discharge part 143 in sequence along the length direction. The liquid storage part 141 is an L-shaped structure, the lower end of the L-shaped structure is connected to the discharge port 123, and the higher end of the L-shaped structure is connected to one end of the detection part 142. The detection part 142 is horizontally arranged, and the lowest point of the inner wall of the pipeline of the detection part 142 is flush with the 0 scale line 1211 on the liquid storage chamber 121. The liquid sensor 18 is horizontally connected to the pipeline of the detection part 142 to detect the liquid flow of the detection part 142; the discharge part 143 is vertically arranged, and the upper end of the discharge part 143 is connected to the end of the detection part 142 away from the liquid storage part 141, and the lower end of the discharge part 143 is connected to the reaction pool 2. During the liquid discharge process, when the liquid sensor 18 detects that there is no liquid flowing in the detection part 142, the liquid sensor 18 feeds back a signal to the controller, and the controller controls the second electrically controlled valve 16 to close, and no more liquid is discharged from the liquid discharge part 143; however, because the lowest point of the inner wall of the pipeline of the detection part 142 is flush with the 0 scale line 1211 on the liquid storage chamber 121, liquid is stored in the pipeline below the scale line 1211 of the liquid storage part 1410 to the entire liquid storage part 141 (that is, before and after the second electrically controlled valve 16); such a setting can prevent the formation of bubbles at the connection between the discharge pipe 14 and the second electrically controlled valve 16, so that the liquid cannot flow at the second electrically controlled valve 16, thereby affecting the normal operation of the device; secondly , because the liquid capacity stored in the pipeline below the scale line 1211 of the liquid storage part 1410 to the entire liquid storage part 141 is constant, the volume of liquid discharged from the liquid storage chamber 121 is equal to the volume of liquid discharged from the discharge part 143, which reduces the phenomenon of uncontrollable liquid loss during each discharge process in the discharge pipe 14, and further improves the accuracy of liquid discharge from the discharge pipe 14; finally, because when the liquid storage chamber 121 is filled with liquid, the front and rear pipelines of the discharge valve are filled with liquid, so that the liquid entering the liquid storage chamber 121 is the liquid inlet volume, avoiding the liquid loss caused by the liquid entering between the second electric control valve 16 and the discharge port 123 during the liquid inlet process, and further improving the liquid inlet accuracy in the liquid storage chamber 121.
[0035] When the quantitative liquid inlet device 1 is used for the first time, the exhaust operation is performed first: the float limiter 1242 is adjusted to the 2mL scale of the liquid storage chamber 121 (it can also be any other scale), the first electrically controlled valve 15 and the second electrically controlled valve 16 are opened, and the liquid in the liquid reservoir 11 begins to enter the liquid storage chamber 121. When liquid flows out of the discharge pipe 14, the second electrically controlled valve 16 is closed; the position of the float limiter 1242 is adjusted up and down. At this time, when the float 1241 is in contact with the float limiter 1242, the scale on the lower surface of the float 1241 is the fixed volume of the liquid inlet of the liquid storage chamber 121. Secondly, the liquid inlet operation: when the liquid is inlet, the controller controls the first electrically controlled valve 15 to open at a fixed time, and the liquid in the liquid reservoir 11 enters the liquid storage chamber 121. The float 1241 rises as the water level in the liquid storage chamber 121 rises. At the same time, the control in the liquid storage chamber 121 is discharged through air circulation. When the float 1241 abuts against the air circulation hole 12421 of the float limiter 1242, the magnetic induction ring senses the arrival signal of the float 1241 and feeds back the signal to the controller. The controller controls the first electrically controlled valve 15 to close, and the liquid inlet is completed. During the final drain operation, after controlling the first electrically controlled valve 15 to close, the controller then controls the second electrically controlled valve 16 to open. The liquid in the liquid storage chamber 121 begins to flow out of the liquid storage chamber 121 through the drain pipe 14 and into the reaction tank 2. At the same time, the float 1241 drops with the liquid level and disengages from the air circulation hole 12421, allowing air to re-enter the liquid storage chamber 121 through the air circulation hole 12421. During the draining process, the liquid sensor 18 continuously detects the liquid flow in the detection section 142. When the liquid sensor 18 detects no liquid flow, it sends a feedback signal to the controller, which controls the second electrically controlled valve 16 to close, ending the draining operation. If the liquid sensor 18 does not detect liquid flow after the drain valve is opened, it indicates that there is a blockage or other fault in the drain pipe 14, requiring on-site drainage. At this time, the liquid sensor 18 sends a feedback signal to the controller, which issues an alarm to allow on-site operators to conduct timely troubleshooting. At the same time, in the controller, the liquid storage volume and liquid inlet volume can be set, and the number of times the first electrically controlled valve 15 is opened can be recorded to calculate the remaining liquid volume in the liquid reservoir 11. When the liquid volume is lower than a certain liquid level, a signal is sent to prompt the operator to replenish the liquid in the liquid reservoir in time.
[0036] The present invention is suitable for a quantitative liquid inlet device 1 for online water vapor chemical analysis. By providing a transfer device 12 and rationally arranging the height difference between the liquid reservoir 11, transfer device 12, and reaction tank 2, the liquid in the liquid reservoir 11 can be quantitatively transferred into the liquid storage chamber 121 under the action of gravity. The liquid in the liquid storage chamber 121 then automatically flows into the reaction tank 2, which is located lower, under the action of gravity. This eliminates the need for electrical energy to transport the liquid, resulting in relatively low manufacturing and operating costs. Furthermore, under the electronic control of a controller, the liquid in the liquid reservoir 11 can be automatically quantitatively transferred into the reaction tank 2. Therefore, the present invention effectively overcomes some practical problems in the prior art and thus has high utility and practical significance. The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Anyone skilled in the art may modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by persons of ordinary skill in the art without departing from the spirit and technical principles disclosed herein are intended to be covered by the claims of the present invention.
