Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of water glass production technology, specifically relating to a finished product color monitoring device based on automated water glass production. Background Technology

[0002] Water glass is an important inorganic chemical raw material. In addition to being used as a component of detergents and binders, it is also an important raw material for manufacturing fine chemical products such as silica gel, molecular sieves, silica sol, and precipitated silica. Its applications are very wide. Generally, in the inorganic silicate industry, the filtration of liquid sodium silicate is mainly carried out by physical methods to remove insoluble impurities from the liquid and obtain a transparent and clear water glass solution. Therefore, the color of the final product of water glass solution is one of the key indicators for its quality verification.

[0003] Currently, monitoring the color of finished water glass solutions relies on the detection and analysis of samples taken from the finished product. However, the current sampling and detection analysis is inefficient and has a low degree of automation, making it unsuitable for automated water glass production processes and resulting in unsatisfactory application effects. To address this, we propose a finished product color monitoring device based on automated water glass production. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a finished product color monitoring device based on automated water glass production in order to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0005] The present invention achieves the above objectives through the following technical solutions:

[0006] This invention provides a finished product color monitoring device based on automated water glass production, comprising a cylinder, a multi-point sampling assembly, the multi-point sampling assembly including multiple sample collection cylinders and sampling structures connected to the multiple sample collection cylinders, the lengths of the sampling ends of the multiple sampling structures decreasing progressively, and a movable sealing member for sealing the sampling end provided on the side of the sampling structure near the sampling end; and

[0007] The depth to which the monitoring ends of multiple colorimetric monitoring components extend into the sample collection tube is positively correlated with the length of the sampling end of the corresponding sampling structure.

[0008] When the cylinder drives the color monitoring component to be pulled outward from the inside of the sample collection cylinder, it generates a suction force. Under the action of the suction force, the sealing component is activated to open the sampling end. The finished water glass is sucked into the sample collection cylinder under the action of the suction force, and the color monitoring component performs color monitoring operation on the finished water glass.

[0009] As a further optimization of the present invention, the sampling structure includes a three-way tube and a sampling rod. One end of the three-way tube is connected to a sample receiving cylinder, one end is connected to a movable sealing component, and the other end is connected to an upper conical cylinder. The movable sealing component includes a lower conical cylinder disposed on the three-way tube. The conical end of the lower conical cylinder is connected to the sampling rod, and a first blocking ball is abutted at the conical end. The upper end of the first blocking ball is provided with a spring component connected to the end of the lower conical cylinder connected to the three-way tube.

[0010] As a further optimization of the present invention, the color monitoring component includes a horizontal plate and a plurality of push cylinders disposed on the horizontal plate. One end of the push cylinder that extends into the sample collection cylinder is provided with an external rod, and the external rod is provided with a sliding sleeve near its head end that slides against the wall of the sample collection cylinder.

[0011] The head end of the external rod is equipped with a color sensor, and the horizontal plate is equipped with a junction box connected to the output end of the color sensor and a main controller connected to the output end of the junction box. The output end of the main controller is connected to a wireless transceiver.

The second blocking ball and the first blocking ball are connected by a connecting rod.

[0013] As a further optimization of the present invention, the suction assembly includes a hollow tube connected to the drain pipe, one end of the hollow tube is connected to a connecting pipe, and the other end of the connecting pipe not connected to the hollow tube is connected to a suction pump, the output end of the suction pump is connected to a processing box.

[0014] As a further optimization of the present invention, a branch pipe is provided at the position between the upper cone and the lower cone of the three-way pipe, and the branch pipe is connected to a cleaning component. The cleaning component includes a water tank and a water pump connected to the water tank. The output end of the water pump is connected to a water supply pipe with a valve, and the end of the water supply pipe not connected to the water pump is connected to a cleaning pipe connected to the branch pipe.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:

[0017] This invention uses a multi-point sampling component to sample the finished water glass solution at multiple points.

The colorimetric monitoring component then monitors the color of the finished water glass, reflecting its quality. The invention offers high operational efficiency, a high degree of automation, and promising application prospects. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0023] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the following specific embodiments are only used to further illustrate the present application and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present application. Those skilled in the art can make some non-essential improvements and adjustments to the present application based on the above application content.

[0024] Example 1

[0025] like Figure 1 , 4As shown, this embodiment provides a finished product color monitoring device based on automated water glass production, including a cylinder 3, a multi-point sampling assembly, the multi-point sampling assembly including multiple sample collection cylinders 1 and sampling structures 4 connected to the multiple sample collection cylinders 1, the lengths of the sampling ends of the multiple sampling structures 4 decreasing in that order, and a movable sealing member for sealing the sampling end is provided on the side of the sampling structure 4 near the sampling end; and

[0026] The depth to which the monitoring ends of multiple colorimetric monitoring components 2 extend into the sample collection tube 1 is positively correlated with the length of the sampling end of their corresponding sampling structure 4.

[0027] The colorimetric monitoring component 2 includes a horizontal plate 21 and multiple push cylinders 23 disposed on the horizontal plate 21. One end of each push cylinder 23 that extends into the sample collection cylinder 1 is provided with an external rod 25. Near the head end of the external rod 25, there is a sliding sleeve 27 that slides against the wall of the sample collection cylinder 1. The lengths of the multiple external rods 25 are positively correlated with the length of the sampling end of the corresponding sampling structure 4. This ensures that the colorimetric monitoring component 2, which is associated with the sampling structure 4 with a longer sampling end, extends deeper into the sample collection cylinder 1 than the sampling structure 4 with a shorter sampling end. This ensures that the colorimetric monitoring component 2 can monitor samples from multiple sampling structures 4 at different locations within a similar time frame, allowing multiple sets of data to be calculated within a similar time frame, thus improving operational efficiency.

[0028] The head end of the external rod 25 is equipped with a color sensor 26. The horizontal plate 21 is equipped with a junction box 22 connected to the output end of the color sensor 26 and a main controller 24 connected to the output end of the junction box 22. The output end of the main controller 24 is connected to a wireless transceiver 28. The color sensor 26 is an AF26 model. It measures the spectral reflectance of the finished water glass through the photoelectric effect, and then calculates the color attribute of the object. It outputs an electrical signal to the main controller 24. The main controller 24 transmits the color attribute data of the oil-containing object to the monitoring platform through the wireless transceiver 28 to realize online real-time monitoring.

[0029] The production process of water glass includes steps such as filtration to remove filter residue and improve the quality of the finished liquid water glass. Therefore, quality monitoring of the finished liquid water glass before storage is a necessary step. In this embodiment, the colorimetric monitoring component 2 is used to monitor the colorimetric properties of the finished liquid water glass. Specifically, the sampling ends of multiple sampling structures 4 of different lengths are inserted into different positions in the container containing the finished liquid water glass to collect samples from multiple points. Then, the cylinder 3 pushes the colorimetric monitoring component 2 to pull it outward from the sample collection cylinder 1, generating a suction force. Under the action of the suction force, the sealing component is activated to open the sampling end, and the finished water glass is sucked into the sample collection cylinder 1 under the action of the suction force. The colorimetric monitoring component 2 then performs colorimetric monitoring on the finished water glass to reflect the quality of the finished liquid water glass.

[0030] Example 2

[0031] Based on Example 1, such as Figure 2-3 As shown, the sampling structure 4 includes a three-way tube 41 and a sampling rod 44. One end of the three-way tube 41 is connected to the sample receiving cylinder 1, one end is connected to a movable sealing member, and the other end is connected to an upper cone 43. The movable sealing member includes a lower cone 42 disposed on the three-way tube 41. The cone end of the lower cone 42 is connected to the sampling rod 44, and a first blocking ball 48 is abutted at the cone end. The upper end of the first blocking ball 48 is provided with a spring member 47 connected to the end of the lower cone 42 connected to the three-way tube 41.

[0032] The upper end of the upper cone 43 is connected to an end seat 46, and the outer end of the end seat 46 is connected to a drain pipe 7. The end of the drain pipe 7 that is not connected to the end seat 46 is connected to a suction assembly 5. The sampling rod 44 has a tapered groove 410 with a narrow upper part and a wide lower part on the inner wall of the rod near the lower cone 42, and a second blocking ball 49 abuts against the tapered groove 410. The second blocking ball 49 and the first blocking ball 48 are connected by a connecting rod 411.

[0033] The suction assembly 5 includes a hollow tube 51 connected to the drain pipe 7. One end of the hollow tube 51 is connected to a connecting pipe 52, and the other end of the connecting pipe 52, which is not connected to the hollow tube 51, is connected to a suction pump 54. The output end of the suction pump 54 is connected to a processing box 53.

[0034] The specific application process is as follows: when the cylinder 3 pushes the color monitoring component 2 to be pulled outward from the inside of the sample collection cylinder 1, it generates a suction force. At this time, the first blocking ball 48 located in the lower cone 42 moves upward under the action of the suction force, compressing the spring component 47, so that the lower end of the lower cone 42 is connected to the sampling rod 44. The finished liquid water glass is sucked from the lower end of the sampling rod 44 under the action of the suction force and enters the sample collection cylinder 1 through the three-way pipe 41. The color is monitored inside the sample collection cylinder 1 by the color monitoring component 2.

[0035] After monitoring, the finished liquid water glass sample is discharged from the sample collection cylinder 1 by the suction assembly 5. Specifically, the suction pump 54 is turned on, and the suction pump 54 generates suction force. At this time, the first blocking ball 48 receives the suction force and will move further upward to compress the spring 47. Then, the first blocking ball 48 moves upward through the connecting rod 411 to the second blocking ball 49. The second blocking ball 49 moves relative to the conical groove 410 until it blocks the upper end of the conical groove 410. Subsequently, under the continuous action of the suction force, the finished liquid water glass inside the sample collection cylinder 1 is discharged from the upper conical cylinder 43 through the drain pipe 7, hollow pipe 51, and connecting pipe 52 into the processing tank 53.

[0036] Example 3

[0037] Based on Example 2, such as Figure 3 As shown, the three-way pipe 41 is provided with a branch pipe 45 at the position between the upper cone 43 and the lower cone 42, and the branch pipe 45 is connected to a cleaning component 6. The cleaning component 6 includes a water tank 62 and a water pump 65 connected to the water tank 62. The output end of the water pump 65 is connected to a water supply pipe 63 with a valve 64. The end of the water supply pipe 63 that is not connected to the water pump 65 is connected to a cleaning pipe 61 that is connected to the branch pipe 45.

[0038] With the suction assembly 5 running, the water pump 65 sends water from the water tank 62 into the three-way pipe 41 through the water supply pipe 63. The water fills the entire three-way pipe 41 and enters the sample collection cylinder 1 to rinse the inside of the sample collection cylinder 1. Under the suction action of the suction assembly 5, the cleaned water is drawn into the processing tank 53. In order to ensure that the liquid water glass is not wasted, in this embodiment, the processing tank 53 is an integrated filtration and concentration processing device, which is used to filter and concentrate the mixed liquid containing the finished water glass solution and the clean water to remove water, thereby obtaining a recycled and purified water glass solution. This ensures that the finished liquid water glass after sampling and monitoring is not wasted and can be recycled.

[0039] Furthermore, annular protrusions 412 are evenly distributed on the inner wall of the lower cone 42 of the multiple sampling structures 4. The annular protrusions 412 provide resistance to the finished liquid water glass during sampling. The number of annular protrusions 412 in each lower cone 42 is negatively correlated with the length of the sampling end of the corresponding sampling structure 4. In short, the sampling structure 4 with a longer sampling end has fewer annular protrusions 412, and the resistance to the liquid during sampling is smaller. This ensures that the colorimetric monitoring component 2 can monitor the samples from multiple sampling structures 4 at different points within a similar time, so that multiple sets of data can be calculated within a similar time, improving the efficiency of operation.

[0040] The embodiments described above are merely examples of several implementations of the present invention, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements all fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
