[0022] The following is a detailed explanation and description of a carrier for an electrochemical test of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0023] like Figure 1 Combined with Figure 2As shown, an embodiment of the present invention discloses a carrier for electrochemical tests, which mainly includes a carrier sleeve 1, a plug sleeve 2 and a three-electrode test probe 3. The carrier sleeve 1 is the main part of the device, and its lower end is sealed and welded with the test pipe 5 to ensure the stable connection between the carrier and the test pipe 5. This welding process not only improves the stability of the equipment, but also enhances its sealing performance, providing a good foundation for subsequent electrochemical tests. Three connecting rods 21 are provided inside the plug sleeve 2, and these three connecting rods 21 are cast in the plug sleeve 2 through the first insulating filler 22, forming a stable triangular distribution between the three. The upper and lower ends of each connecting rod 21 extend from the insulating filler, and the upper end of the connecting rod 21 is also used as a plug, which can be conveniently connected to the electrochemical workstation for electrochemical tests. This design not only simplifies the test operation, but also improves the accuracy and stability of signal transmission. The three-electrode test probe 3 is connected to the lower ends of the three connecting rods 21 one by one through the wire 4. That is to say, the three-electrode test probe 3 is detachably connected to the plug sleeve 2, and can be replaced with a different three-electrode test probe 3 according to actual needs. During the test, the three-electrode test probe 3 can accurately measure the electrochemical parameters of the fluid in the pipeline, providing a reliable basis for subsequent data analysis. When in use, the plug sleeve 2 and the three-electrode test probe 3 are inserted into the bearing sleeve 1 in order from top to bottom. This design makes the equipment more convenient and quick during installation and removal. When it is fully inserted, the three-electrode test probe 3 contacts the fluid in the test pipeline 5 for accurate measurement. This contact method not only improves the accuracy of the measurement, but also enhances the durability of the equipment, so that it can adapt to electrochemical tests in various complex environments. In terms of structure, the lower half of the plug sleeve 2 is sealed and plugged with the upper half of the bearing sleeve 1, and this sealed plug-in method further enhances the sealing and durability of the equipment. At the same time, the plug sleeve 2 is tightly pressed against the bearing sleeve 1 through the pressure cap 6, and the upper half of the plug sleeve 2 can extend from the pressure cap 6 to ensure the stability and safety of the carrier 10 during use. This design also facilitates the installation and removal of the carrier 10, so that the carrier 10 can adapt to electrochemical tests related to high temperature and high pressure multiphase flow. It can still maintain good performance and stability during long-term use, further improving the accuracy and reliability of electrochemical tests, and the measured experimental data can provide useful reference and help for scientific researchers and technicians in related fields.

[0024] In one embodiment of the present invention, the three-electrode test probe 3 is composed of a shell 31, a reference electrode, a test electrode and an auxiliary electrode. These electrodes are integrally cast in the shell 31 through a second insulating filler 32 to ensure the stability of the structure and the accuracy of the experiment. Among them, the upper ends of the reference electrode, the test electrode and the auxiliary electrode are all connected with wires 4, which pass through the shell 31 and are connected to the corresponding connecting rods 21, thereby ensuring the stable transmission of current. At the same time, the lower ends of these electrodes are in direct contact with the fluid in the test pipe 5, providing an accurate electrochemical environment for the experiment. The auxiliary electrode, also known as the counter electrode, plays a key role in the experiment. It forms a series circuit with the test electrode and mainly plays a conductive function. In order to reduce the impact on the test electrode, the resistance of the auxiliary electrode should be as small as possible and not easy to polarize. In addition, its area is usually larger than the test electrode to enhance the accuracy and stability of the experiment. The reference electrode provides a reference potential for the test electrode in the experiment. Since its potential is fixed and known, the potential of the test electrode can be accurately obtained by measuring the potential difference between the test electrode and the reference electrode.

[0025] See also Figure 1 In one embodiment of the present invention, the upper half of the inner circumferential wall of the bearing sleeve 1 is provided with an internal thread. This design enables the bearing sleeve 1 to be tightly connected with the pressure cap 6. The inner diameter of the upper half of the bearing sleeve 1 is larger than the inner diameter of the lower half. This asymmetric design allows the inner circumferential wall of the bearing sleeve 1 to form a step surface, which meets the connection requirements of the pressure cap 6 and enhances the structural stability of the bearing sleeve 1. The shape of the plug-in sleeve 2 is thick in the middle and thin at both ends. This design enables the plug-in sleeve 2 to be tightly matched when inserted into the lower half of the bearing sleeve 1, so that the middle lower end surface of the plug-in sleeve 2 is against the step surface formed in the bearing sleeve 1, further enhancing the connection stability between the two. In order to ensure the stable connection between the bearing sleeve 1 and the plug sleeve 2, the pressure cap 6 is designed to be placed between the plug sleeve 2 and the bearing sleeve 1. The outer peripheral wall of the pressure cap 6 is provided with an external thread, so that it can be tightly threaded with the internal thread of the bearing sleeve 1. This connection method not only ensures the stability between the two, but also facilitates installation and disassembly. The lower end face of the pressure cap 6 is against the middle upper end face of the plug sleeve 2, and then the middle part of the plug sleeve 2 is pressed between the pressure cap 6 and the step surface of the inner peripheral wall of the bearing sleeve 1 through the pressure cap 6. In addition, a sealing groove is also provided in the middle part of the plug sleeve 2, and a sealing ring 25 is provided in the sealing groove. The sealing ring 25 is interference fit with the inner peripheral wall of the bearing sleeve 1, which effectively prevents the leakage of liquid or gas and improves the sealing performance of the carrier 10. This design not only ensures the pressure and temperature bearing performance of the carrier 10, but also prolongs the service life of the carrier 10.

[0026] See also Figure 1In this embodiment, an upper plastic pad 23 is provided on the inner side of the plug sleeve 2. The upper plastic pad 23 is sleeved on the lower side of the upper ends of the three connecting rods 21, which not only plays an insulating role, but also effectively prevents the connecting rods 21 from shaking in the plug sleeve 2. The lower plastic pad 24 is sleeved on the upper side of the lower ends of the three connecting rods 21, and corresponds to the upper plastic pad 23, and together ensures the stability of the connecting rods 21. It is worth mentioning that both the upper plastic pad 23 and the lower plastic pad 24 are interference fit with the inner circumferential wall of the plug sleeve 2, which means that they fit tightly and can effectively prevent the leakage of high-temperature and high-pressure liquids or gases from interfering with the connecting rods 21. This design is particularly important for applications that require high sealing. The plug sleeve 2 of this structure can ensure the accuracy and safety of the experiment. A retaining ring 11 is provided at the lower end of the inner circumferential wall of the bearing sleeve 1. This retaining ring 11 not only increases the strength of the bearing sleeve 1, but also provides a stable support point for the outer shell 31 of the three-electrode test probe 3. In actual use, the lower end surface of the shell 31 of the three-electrode test probe 3 abuts against the upper end surface of the retaining ring 11. This design enables the three-electrode test probe 3 to be stably fixed in the bearing sleeve 1 when inserted, reducing the risk of shaking and displacement.

[0027] See also Figure 3 In one embodiment of the present invention, the lower end of the connecting rod 21 is provided with a plug hole 211 along its own axial direction, which is an important feature of the connecting rod 21. The design of the plug hole 211 allows the wire 4 to be easily inserted therein, thereby achieving electrical connection. The upper half of the cross section of the plug hole 211 is in the shape of a rectangle, and this design enables the wire 4 to be better fixed when inserted into the plug hole 211. The rectangular shape makes it difficult for the wire 4 to slide in the plug hole 211, thereby ensuring the stability of the connection. In addition, the rectangular cross section can also increase the contact area of ​​the wire 4, which is conducive to improving the conductive performance of the wire 4. The lower half of the cross section of the plug hole 211 is in the shape of a trapezoid, and this design enables the wire 4 to be better tightened when inserted into the plug hole 211. The trapezoidal shape allows the wire 4 to be gradually tightened in the plug hole 211, thereby avoiding the wire 4 from loosening or slipping in the plug hole 211. This design not only improves the reliability of the connection, but also reduces electrical faults caused by loose wires 4. The wire core of the wire 4 is tightened in the upper half of the plug hole 211 via the lower half of the plug hole 211. This design enables the wire 4 to be better fixed and tightened after being inserted into the plug hole 211. In this way, the wire core of the wire 4 is tightly fixed in the plug hole 211, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the connection. In short, the design of the plug hole 211 of the connecting rod 21 in this embodiment is a very clever structure, which realizes the fixation, tightening and stable connection of the wire 4 through the combination design of the rectangle and the trapezoid. This design not only improves the reliability of the connection, but also reduces the electrical faults caused by the looseness of the wire 4.

[0028] See also Figure 4 In one embodiment of the present invention, the lower end of the bearing sleeve 1 is formed by three parts connected in sequence from bottom to top, namely, the first columnar part 12, the second columnar part 13 and the conical part 14. This design is not only compact in structure, but also powerful in function. The first columnar part 12, whose outer diameter is smaller than the second columnar part 13, provides a preliminary fixing function for the sleeve (that is, it is easy to connect with the test pipe 5). This design makes the sleeve more stable when fixed and not easy to deviate. At the same time, its lower end face is tangent to the inner circumferential wall of the test pipe 5, further enhancing the connection stability between the sleeve and the pipe, while not affecting the flow pattern of the fluid in the pipe, and truly restoring the test environment in the actual working conditions. The second columnar part 13, whose outer diameter is larger than the first columnar part 12, provides further support and fixation for the bearing sleeve 1, so that the bearing sleeve 1 can remain stable and not easily deformed when subjected to a large pressure. The conical part 14, whose outer diameter gradually increases from bottom to top, is finally connected to the outer circumferential wall of the bearing sleeve 1. This design reduces the phenomenon of stress concentration and improves the service life of the bearing sleeve 1. During the welding process, the solder 7 completely covers the first columnar portion 12 , the second columnar portion 13 and the conical portion 14 , which not only enhances the welding strength of the sleeve, but also further improves the durability of the sleeve, so that the load-bearing sleeve 1 can exhibit excellent performance in the connection of various test pipes 5 .

[0029] See also Figure 5In one embodiment of the present invention, a pipeline assembly for electrochemical testing is provided, including a test pipeline 5, wherein a carrier 10 is symmetrically installed on the upper and lower sides of the middle of the test pipeline 5, and the carrier 10 includes a carrier sleeve 1, a plug sleeve 2 and a three-electrode test probe 3. The lower end of the carrier sleeve 1 is sealed and welded to the test pipeline 5, and three connecting rods 21 are arranged in the plug sleeve 2. The three connecting rods 21 are cast in the plug sleeve 2 in a triangular shape through a first insulating filler 22. The upper and lower ends of the connecting rods 21 extend out of the first insulating filler 22, and the upper ends of the connecting rods 21 also serve as plugs. The three-electrode test probes 3 are respectively connected to the lower ends of the three connecting rods 21 through wires 4. The plug sleeve 2 and the three-electrode test probes 3 are inserted into the carrier sleeve 1 from top to bottom, and the three-electrode test probes 3 are in contact with the fluid in the test pipeline 5. The lower half of the plug sleeve 2 is sealed and plugged into the upper half of the carrier sleeve 1. In the part, the plug-in sleeve 2 is pressed against the bearing sleeve 1 through the pressure cap 6, and the upper half of the plug-in sleeve 2 extends out from the pressure cap 6. The first ball valve 51 and the second ball valve 52 are respectively installed at both ends of the test pipe 5. The corrosion test probes 53 are symmetrically mounted on the upper and lower sides of the test pipe 5 between the carrier 10 and the first ball valve 51. A pressure gauge 54 and an exhaust valve 55 are also installed on the upper side of the test pipe 5. The pressure gauge 54 is installed between the corrosion test probe 53 located on the upper side of the test pipe 5 and the carrier 10. The exhaust valve 55 is installed between the carrier 10 located on the upper side of the test pipe 5 and the second ball valve 52. A temperature sensor 56 and a liquid extraction valve 57 are also installed on the lower side of the test pipe 5. The temperature sensor 56 is installed between the corrosion test probe 53 located on the lower side of the test pipe 5 and the carrier 10. The liquid extraction valve 57 is installed between the carrier 10 located on the lower side of the test pipe 5 and the second ball valve 52.

[0030] It should be noted that: the connecting rod 21 is usually made of copper fluororubber, the first insulating filler 22 and the second insulating filler 32 are usually made of epoxy resin, the upper plastic pad 23 and the lower plastic pad 24 are usually made of PEEK material, and the sealing ring 25 is usually made of fluororubber.

[0031] See also Figure 5 In one embodiment of the present invention, a pipeline assembly for electrochemical testing is provided. The assembly is well-designed and fully functional, and can meet various complex electrochemical testing requirements, such as high-temperature and high-pressure multiphase flow pipeline electrochemical testing.

[0032] Specifically, the pipeline assembly mainly includes a test pipeline 5, which is the core part of the whole system and is used to transport and test electrolyte solutions (such as multiphase flow test solutions). The middle part of the test pipeline 5 is symmetrically equipped with carriers 10 on both sides, which are used to connect to the electrochemical workstation for electrochemical testing. The structure of the carrier 10 in the above examples can be used here, so as to obtain all the beneficial effects brought by the above carrier 10.

[0033] Corrosion test probes 53 are symmetrically mounted on the upper and lower sides of the test pipe 5 between the carrier 10 and the first ball valve 51. These probes are used to monitor the corrosion of the pipeline in real time when it corresponds to the actual working conditions. These probes can accurately measure and record information such as corrosion rate and corrosion type, providing important data support for subsequent test analysis and result evaluation.

[0034] The first ball valve 51 and the second ball valve 52 are respectively installed at both ends of the test pipeline 5, and these two valves control the inflow and outflow of electrolyte. The first ball valve 51 and the second ball valve 52 can be used to block the running pipeline and replace the three-electrode test probe 3 or the corrosion test probe 53 in the carrier 10.

[0035] A pressure gauge 54 and an exhaust valve 55 are also installed on the upper side of the test pipeline 5, which are used to detect the pressure in the pipeline and exhaust the gas in the pipeline respectively. The pressure gauge 54 is installed between the corrosion test probe 53 and the carrier 10 located on the upper side of the test pipeline 5, and can monitor the pressure changes caused by the test process in real time. The exhaust valve 55 is installed between the carrier 10 and the second ball valve 52 located on the upper side of the test pipeline 5 to ensure that the gas that may accumulate can be discharged in time during the test process to keep the inside of the pipeline clean and stable.

[0036] A temperature sensor 56 and a liquid extraction valve 57 are also installed on the lower side of the test pipe 5, which are used to measure the temperature in the pipe and extract or drain the electrolyte solution respectively. The temperature sensor 56 is installed between the corrosion test probe 53 and the carrier 10 located on the lower side of the test pipe 5, and can monitor the temperature changes caused by the test process in real time, which is very important for some electrochemical reactions that are sensitive to temperature. The liquid extraction valve 57 is installed between the carrier 10 and the second ball valve 52 located on the lower side of the test pipe 5, which is convenient for extracting a certain amount of electrolyte solution for further testing and analysis when needed.

[0037] By using this pipeline assembly, the efficiency and accuracy of electrochemical experiments can be greatly improved, providing researchers with a powerful tool that will help promote the development and progress of the field of electrochemistry.
