Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of flowmeters, and in particular relates to an insertion-type split electromagnetic flowmeter. Background Art

[0002] In an electromagnetic flowmeter, the conductive medium in the measuring tube is equivalent to the conductive metal rod in the Faraday test. The two electromagnetic coils at the upper and lower ends generate a constant magnetic field. When the conductive medium flows through, an induced voltage is generated. The two electrodes inside the pipe measure the generated induced voltage.

[0003] Since the flow is measured by induced voltage when flowing through a conductive medium, in actual measurement, bubbles will occur when the conductive fluid flows through the pipe to be measured, and the fluid does not fill the pipe, and there will be air cavities inside the pipe. The bubbles in the fluid will change the speed of sound in the liquid, and the change in sound speed will affect the measurement accuracy of the electromagnetic flowmeter. Since bubbles cause changes in liquid density, the speed at which sound waves propagate through the liquid will also change. This change in sound speed may cause deviations in the measurement results of the electromagnetic flowmeter; when bubbles are present in the liquid, they may interfere with the measurement signal of the electromagnetic flowmeter. Bubbles may change the conductivity distribution in the liquid, resulting in inaccurate measurement results of the electromagnetic flowmeter and large errors. Summary of the invention

[0014] Preferably, a box body is provided outside the ventilation mechanism and the exhaust mechanism, and the box body is connected to the outside of the pipeline to be tested.

[0015] In addition, when the flow meter is measuring, after the fluid enters the pipe to be measured, it first enters the ascending pipe. Since the ascending pipe is inclined upward, when the fluid flows from low to high, the upward speed of the bubbles in the fluid will be accelerated, causing the bubbles in the fluid to float upward quickly. When the bubbles reach the end of the ascending pipe and the connection position with the descending pipe, the bubbles are acted upon by the pressure of the flowing water and enter the ventilation mechanism. The air permeable layer in the ventilation mechanism allows the gas to pass through and enter the exhaust mechanism. The moisture cannot pass through the air permeable layer and continue to flow into the descending pipe. Moreover, due to the inverted "V"-shaped setting, when the fluid flows into the descending pipe, the water pressure gradually increases. The bubbles in the water will not continue to enter the descending pipe with the fluid due to the buoyancy, thereby discharging the bubbles in the water flow, achieving a good bubble removal effect and reducing the influence of bubbles on the measurement results. After the fluid flows out of the descending pipe, it passes through the flow balancing mechanism. The flow balancing mechanism sequentially sets four annular plates in the pipe to be measured. The outer diameter of the cut annular plate is smaller than the inner diameter of the pipe to be measured, and the annular plate has a hollow structure. When fluid passes through the flow balancing mechanism, the annular plate closest to the downpipe will block part of the fluid, and at the same time, part of the fluid will continue to flow downstream through the gap formed by the hollow part and edge of the annular plate and the inner wall of the pipe to be tested. Part of the fluid blocked by the annular plate will form a backflow, and the backflowing fluid will merge with the newly entered fluid. Since the flow directions of the backflowing fluid and the newly entered fluid are different, and there will be a certain degree of diffusion, a water vortex will be formed. The water vortex will form a vortex between the annular plate and the inner wall of the pipe to be tested, thereby completely filling the entire cavity of the pipe to be tested. Similarly, when the fluid passes between the two annular plates, a vortex will be formed between the two annular plates, and the pipe to be tested between each part will be completely filled. Therefore, after passing through the flow balancing mechanism, the conductive fluid is not only evenly distributed in the pipe to be tested, but also completely fills the pipe to be tested, preventing the measurement error caused by the cavity at the top of the pipe to be tested when detecting the flow rate, and the liquid fluid of the wire cannot fill the pipe, thereby reducing the error and improving the measurement accuracy. In addition, the flow balancing mechanism has an exhaust mechanism that drives the connecting rod to move up and down, so that the vertical connecting rod drives the rotating connecting rod and the turntable to rotate, and the turntable drives the flow balancing mechanism to rotate. When the flow balancing mechanism rotates, when the conductive liquid fluid is blocked by the annular plate, an eddy current is formed. At the same time, the blocked part of the fluid will be affected by the centrifugal force and move along the radial direction of the annular plate toward the inner wall of the pipeline to be tested. The fluid will fill the space between the annular plate and the inner wall of the pipeline to be tested, thereby preventing a cavity from being formed at the top of the pipeline to be tested.

[0016] In addition, the process of gas in the liquid fluid passing through the ventilation mechanism is that the liquid fluid in the ascending tube enters into the first cylinder through the liquid inlet along with the bubbles. When the liquid pressure is low, the moving ball is acted upon by the elastic force of the first spring. The first spring is a tension spring. The moving ball cannot approach the channel and cannot form a tight pressure connection with the channel. The liquid fluid and the bubbles flow upward through the channel until they pass through the air permeable layer. The molecular diameter of the gas is about 0.0004 μm, while the gap of the air permeable layer is 0.1-10 μm. The diameter of the water molecule is about 400 μm. The gas molecules are subjected to the pressure. The water molecules can quickly pass through the air permeable layer to enter the exhaust mechanism, while the water molecules cannot pass through the air permeable layer, so that the water and gas are separated, and the water molecules continue to flow to the downward tube, and the gas molecules enter the second cylinder through the vent; and when the pressure of the liquid fluid increases, in order to prevent the water pressure from damaging the air permeable layer, the pressure of the flowing liquid increases, and the moving ball presses the first spring upward under the action of the fluid pressure until the moving ball is completely and tightly pressed against the channel, blocking the channel, and the fluid cannot flow upward to the air permeable layer, thereby reducing the pressure of the fluid on the air permeable layer, effectively preventing damage to the air permeable layer, and helping to extend its service life.

[0017] After the gas enters the second cylinder of the exhaust mechanism through the air vent, the movable plate of the air storage chamber of the second cylinder is opened by pressure. When the pressure in the air storage chamber gradually increases, before the pressure block and the lower air hole form a passage, and the air pressure in the air storage chamber is greater than the air pressure above the air permeable layer of the first cylinder, the movable plate is closed; when the pressure in the air storage chamber decreases again, the movable plate is opened by pressure to allow air to enter again; when the pressure in the air storage chamber reaches a certain threshold, the pressure block is compressed by the pressure on the third spring, and the lower air hole is opened. It should be understood that the pressure threshold for opening the pressure block is lower than the pressure threshold for opening the movable plate, so that a certain amount of gas is stored in the air storage chamber; when the pressure block is separated from the lower air hole, the gas in the air storage chamber passes through the lower air hole. The connecting cavity and the upper air hole enter the pressure cavity, and the piston block is pushed to move as the pressure in the pressure cavity increases. When the moving column moves upward and the airway is exposed from the middle hole, the gas in the pressure cavity quickly leaks out from the airway. The diameter of the airway is larger than the diameters of the upper air hole and the lower air hole until the pressure in the pressure cavity is balanced with the external air pressure. The piston block is reset in the opposite direction by the rebound action of the second spring, and the air pressure in the pressure cavity increases slowly again, forming a second piston movement to exhaust gas. This prevents excessive gas storage, increased pressure, and damage to the equipment. While exhausting gas, it drives the connecting rod to move back and forth up and down, thereby driving the vertical connecting rod and indirectly driving the flow equalizing mechanism to rotate. Through the set air storage cavity, a certain amount of gas can be stored. When there are few bubbles in the liquid fluid, the remaining gas in the air storage cavity can be used to indirectly drive the flow equalizing mechanism to avoid the formation of air cavities in the pipeline to be measured, thereby further increasing the accuracy of electromagnetic flowmeter detection.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: The present invention provides an insertion type split electromagnetic flowmeter. Through the flow balancing mechanism, the conductive fluid is not only evenly distributed in the pipeline to be measured, but also completely fills the pipeline to be measured after passing through the flow balancing mechanism, thereby preventing measurement errors caused by the presence of a cavity at the top of the pipeline to be measured and the inability of the liquid fluid in the conductor to fill the pipeline when detecting the flow, thereby reducing the error and improving the measurement accuracy.

[0019] When the flow balancing mechanism rotates, after the conductive liquid is blocked by the annular plate, a vortex is formed. At the same time, the blocked part of the fluid will be moved along the radial direction of the annular plate toward the inner wall of the pipeline to be tested due to the centrifugal effect. The fluid will fill the space between the annular plate and the inner wall of the pipeline to be tested, thereby preventing a cavity from being formed at the top of the pipeline to be tested.

[0020] In order to prevent the water pressure from damaging the breathable layer, the pressure of the flowing liquid increases, and the moving ball presses the first spring upward under the action of the fluid pressure until the moving ball is completely and tightly pressed against the channel, blocking the channel. The fluid cannot flow upward to the breathable layer, thereby reducing the pressure of the fluid on the breathable layer, effectively preventing damage to the breathable layer and helping to extend its service life.

[0021] By setting up the air storage chamber, a certain amount of gas can be stored. When there are few bubbles in the liquid fluid, the remaining gas in the air storage chamber can be used to indirectly drive the flow equalization mechanism to avoid the formation of air cavities in the pipeline to be tested, further increasing the accuracy of electromagnetic flowmeter detection.

Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] Embodiment 1: like Figure 1-4 As shown, an insertion-type split electromagnetic flowmeter comprises a flowmeter body 1 which is plugged and arranged on a pipeline 2 to be measured, and an electrode 3 of the flowmeter body 1 extends to the interior of the pipeline 2 to be measured; an ascending pipe 5, a descending pipe 51 and a flow equalizing mechanism 12 are arranged in sequence upstream of the electrode 3, the ascending pipe 5 and the descending pipe 51 are connected, and the ascending pipe 5 and the descending pipe 51 form an inverted "V"-shaped structure, and the flow equalizing mechanism 12 evenly distributes the flowing liquid in the space of the pipeline 2 to be measured; a ventilation mechanism 6 is arranged at the connection between the ascending pipe 5 and the descending pipe 51, the ventilation mechanism 6 is arranged on the outer wall of the pipeline 2 to be measured, and the ventilation mechanism 6 is provided with a liquid inlet 68, and the ventilation mechanism 6 is connected with the ascending pipe 5 and the descending pipe 51 through the liquid inlet 68; a permeable layer 62 is arranged in the ventilation mechanism 6, and the permeable layer 62 can only allow gas to pass through, but liquid cannot pass through, and an exhaust mechanism 7 is arranged above the ventilation mechanism 6, and the ventilation mechanism 6 and the exhaust mechanism 7 can remove excess gas and bubbles in the pipeline 2 to be measured, thereby reducing the image of the gas in the pipeline 2 to be measured on the measurement result. The ascending pipe 5 is located upstream of the descending pipe 51 , and the connecting end of the ascending pipe 5 and the descending pipe 51 is close to the upper side wall of the pipeline 2 to be tested; the liquid in the pipeline 2 to be tested flows from the ascending pipe 5 to the descending pipe 51 .

[0033] The flow balancing mechanism 12 is arranged downstream of the down pipe 51. The flow balancing mechanism 12 includes a plurality of annular plates 121, which are arranged in sequence along the length direction of the pipeline 2 to be tested. A fixing rod 122 is arranged between the plurality of annular plates 121, and the fixing rod 122 connects the plurality of annular plates 121. The center of the annular plates 121 is a hollow structure. The flow balancing mechanism 12 can rotate; a turntable 10 is connected to one end of the flow balancing mechanism 12, and the turntable 10 is provided with a support rod 11. The turntable 10 is provided with a rotating shaft and is rotatably connected to the support rod 11, and the other end of the support rod 11 is connected to the inner wall of the pipeline 2 to be tested; the other side of the turntable 10 is eccentrically connected to a rotating connecting rod 9, and the other end of the rotating connecting rod 9 is rotatably connected to a vertical connecting rod 8, which penetrates the wall of the pipeline 2 to be tested and is sealed and slidably connected to the pipeline 2 to be tested, and the other end of the vertical connecting rod 8 is connected to an exhaust mechanism 7, and the exhaust mechanism 7 drives the flow balancing mechanism 12 to rotate.

[0034] When the flow meter is measuring, after the fluid enters the pipe 2 to be measured, it first enters the ascending pipe 5. Since the ascending pipe 5 is inclined upward, when the fluid flows from low to high, the upward speed of the bubbles in the fluid will be accelerated, so that the bubbles in the fluid float upward quickly. When the bubbles reach the end of the ascending pipe 5 and the connection position with the descending pipe 51, the bubbles are affected by the pressure of the flowing water and enter the ventilation mechanism 6. The air permeable layer 62 in the ventilation mechanism 6 allows the gas to pass through and enter the exhaust mechanism 7. The water cannot pass through the air permeable layer 62 and continues to flow to the descending pipe 51, and Due to the inverted "V"-shaped arrangement, when the fluid flows into the downward pipe 51, the water pressure gradually increases, and the bubbles in the water will not continue to enter the downward pipe 51 with the fluid due to the buoyancy, thereby discharging the bubbles in the water flow, achieving a good bubble removal effect and reducing the influence of bubbles on the measurement results; after the fluid flows out of the downward pipe 51, it passes through the flow balancing mechanism 12, and the flow balancing mechanism 12 sequentially sets four annular plates 121 in the pipeline 2 to be measured, and the outer diameter of the annular plate 121 is smaller than the inner diameter of the pipeline 2 to be measured, and the annular plate 121 is hollow. When fluid passes through the flow balancing mechanism 12, the annular plate 121 closest to the down pipe 51 will block part of the fluid, and at the same time, part of the fluid will continue to flow downstream through the gap formed by the hollow part and edge of the annular plate 121 and the inner wall of the pipeline 2 to be tested, and part of the fluid blocked by the annular plate 121 will form a backflow, and the backflowing fluid will merge with the newly entered fluid. Since the backflowing fluid and the newly entered fluid have different flow directions and will diffuse to a certain extent, a water vortex will be formed, and the water vortex will form between the annular plate 121 and the inner wall of the pipeline 2 to be tested. A vortex is formed between the two annular plates 121, thereby completely filling the entire cavity of the pipeline 2 to be tested. Similarly, when the fluid passes between the two annular plates 121, a vortex is formed between the two annular plates 121, and the pipeline 2 to be tested between each part is completely filled. Therefore, after the conductive fluid passes through the flow equalizing mechanism 12, it is not only evenly distributed in the pipeline 2 to be tested, but also completely fills the pipeline 2 to be tested, thereby preventing the measurement error caused by the cavity at the top of the pipeline 2 to be tested when detecting the flow rate and the inability of the liquid fluid of the wire to fill the pipeline, thereby reducing the error and improving the measurement accuracy. In addition, the flow balancing mechanism 12 has an exhaust mechanism 7 that drives the connecting rod 714 to move up and down, so that the vertical connecting rod 8 drives the rotating connecting rod 9 and the turntable 10 to rotate, and the turntable 10 drives the flow balancing mechanism 12 to rotate. When the flow balancing mechanism 12 rotates, when the conductive liquid fluid is blocked by the annular plate 121, a vortex is formed. At the same time, the blocked part of the fluid will be affected by the centrifugal force and move in the radial direction of the annular plate 121 toward the inner wall of the pipeline 2 to be tested. The fluid will fill the space between the annular plate 121 and the inner wall of the pipeline 2 to be tested, so as to prevent the formation of a cavity at the top of the pipeline 2 to be tested.

[0038] The process of gas in the liquid fluid passing through the ventilation mechanism 6 is as follows: the liquid fluid in the ascending tube 5 enters the first cylinder 61 through the liquid inlet 68 along with bubbles. When the liquid pressure is low, the moving ball 65 is acted upon by the elastic force of the first spring 67. The first spring 67 is a tension spring.

The liquid fluid and bubbles flow upward through the channel 64 until they pass through the air permeable layer 62. The molecular diameter of the gas is about 0.0004 μm, while the gap of the air permeable layer 62 is 0.1-10 μm. The diameter of the water molecule is about 400 μm. The gas molecules can be It quickly passes through the breathable layer 62 and enters the exhaust mechanism 7, while water molecules cannot pass through the breathable layer 62, so that water and gas are separated, and water molecules continue to flow to the downward tube 51, and gas molecules enter the second cylinder 71 through the vent 69; and when the pressure of the liquid fluid increases, in order to prevent the water pressure from damaging the breathable layer 62, the pressure of the flowing liquid increases, and the moving ball 65 is pressed upward by the fluid pressure to press the first spring 67 until the moving ball 65 is completely and tightly pressed against the channel 64, blocking the channel 64, and the fluid cannot flow upward to the breathable layer 62, thereby reducing the pressure of the fluid on the breathable layer 62, effectively preventing damage to the breathable layer 62, and helping to extend its service life.

[0039] After the gas enters the second cylinder 71 of the exhaust mechanism 7 through the vent 69, the movable plate 74 of the gas storage chamber 73 of the second cylinder 71 is opened by pressure. When the pressure in the gas storage chamber 73 gradually increases, before the pressure block 725 and the lower air permeable hole 723711 form a passage, and the air pressure in the gas storage chamber 73 is greater than the air pressure above the air permeable layer 62 of the first cylinder 61, the movable plate 74 is closed; when the pressure in the gas storage chamber 73 decreases again, the movable plate 74 is opened by pressure. Start to let air in again; when the pressure in the air storage chamber 73 reaches a certain threshold, the pressure block 725 is compressed by the pressure on the third spring 724, and the lower air vent 723711 opens. It should be understood that the pressure threshold for opening the pressure block 725 is lower than the pressure threshold for opening the movable plate 74, so that a certain amount of gas is stored in the air storage chamber 73; when the pressure block 725 is separated from the lower air vent 723711, the gas in the air storage chamber 73 passes through the lower air vent 723711. The connecting cavity 721 and the upper air hole 722711 enter the pressure cavity 75. As the pressure in the pressure cavity 75 increases, the piston block 76 is pushed to move. When the movable column 77 moves upward and the air channel 78 is exposed from the middle hole 713, the gas in the pressure cavity 75 is quickly discharged from the air channel 78. The diameter of the air channel 78 is larger than the diameters of the upper air hole 722711 and the lower air hole 723711, until the pressure in the pressure cavity 75 is balanced with the external air pressure, the piston block 76 is reversed and reset by the rebound effect of the second spring 710, and the gas in the pressure cavity 75 is released. The pressure increases slowly again, forming a second piston movement to exhaust gas; preventing excessive gas storage, increased pressure, and damage to the equipment; while exhausting gas, the connecting rod 714 is driven to move up and down, thereby driving the vertical connecting rod 8 and indirectly driving the flow equalizing mechanism 12 to rotate; through the set air storage chamber 73, a certain amount of gas can be stored. When there are few bubbles in the liquid fluid, the remaining gas in the air storage chamber 73 can be used to indirectly drive the flow equalizing mechanism 12, thereby avoiding the formation of air cavities in the pipeline 2 to be tested, and further increasing the accuracy of electromagnetic flowmeter detection.
