Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an electromagnetic flowmeter sensor, and in particular to a shell, an inner lining and a hot-melt welding joint portion of the electromagnetic flowmeter. The present invention is applicable to the field of flow measurement based on the electromagnetic measurement principle, and is particularly applicable to heat meters, cold meters, water meters, sewage meters, etc. based on the electromagnetic measurement principle, and is also applicable to rapid filling and flow ratio systems. Background Art

[0002] Electromagnetic flowmeter is a flow measurement instrument based on Faraday's electromagnetic induction principle. Its basic principle is that when a fluid passes through a magnetic field, an induced electromotive force is generated. The magnitude of the induced electromotive force is proportional to the flow rate of the fluid. The flow rate of the fluid is obtained by measuring the induced electromotive force. Usually, an electromagnetic flowmeter consists of a sensor and a transmitter.

[0003] The sensor is mainly composed of a measuring tube, an excitation coil, a detection electrode, and a housing that meets the protection standards. The measuring tube of the existing sensor is composed of a metal pipe or a non-metallic pipe, and the connection between the measuring tube composed of a metal pipe and the housing is welded or clamped. These connection methods have poor integrity in the manufacture of electromagnetic flow sensors, many parts, and high material and labor costs.

[0004] The measuring tube of the sensor is composed of a metal tube and an insulating lining. Since the insulating lining is manufactured by a separate process, the manufacturing cycle is long, and a magnetically conductive stainless steel tube is also required, which has a high manufacturing cost. The outer shell is composed of another method. The insulating lining and the outer shell are made of different materials. The excitation coil is installed outside the pressure pipe, and a magnetic yoke needs to be installed outside the excitation coil. Finally, the side panel and the outer ring need to be installed. When manufactured separately, the electromagnetic flow sensor has poor integrity, many parts, and high material and labor costs.

[0005] In summary, the existing electromagnetic flow sensor insulation lining and shell have the following problems: when a metal tube and an insulating lining are used, since the insulating lining and the instrument shell are manufactured separately, the electromagnetic flow sensor has poor integrity, many parts, and high material and labor costs; traditional electromagnetic flow sensors have many parts, many installation and manufacturing procedures, and high labor costs, which are not conducive to large-scale industrial production.

[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to design a built-in electromagnetic flow sensor. Summary of the invention

[0007] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is that when the existing electromagnetic flow sensor is composed of a metal tube and an insulating lining, since the insulating lining and the instrument housing are manufactured separately, the electromagnetic flow sensor has poor integrity, many parts, and high material and labor costs; the traditional electromagnetic flow sensor has many parts, many installation and manufacturing procedures, and high labor costs, which is not conducive to large-scale industrial production.

[0008] In order to solve the above technical problems, a technical solution adopted by the present invention is: to provide a built-in electromagnetic flow sensor, which includes an outer shell, an end face sealing sheet, an insulating inner part, a hot melt welding joint and an excitation coil installed inside a pressure pipe, and the insulating inner part and the outer shell are designed as an integral whole.

[0009] The shell is made of iron.

[0010] The insulating inner part and the outer shell are made of plastic.

[0011] The insulating inner part is a one-time injection-molded product.

[0012] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0013] 1. The insulating lining and shell of the electromagnetic flowmeter sensor measuring tube are made of plastic material and are manufactured in one go by injection molding. They have good integrity, few parts, low material and labor costs, and are easy to mass-produce industrially.

[0014] 2. The sensors produced by injection molding method have excellent performance, good sensor sensitivity and measurement accuracy. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0020] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby making a clearer and more definite definition of the protection scope of the present invention.

The insulating inner part 3 is made of plastic in one go by injection molding.

[0022] The housing 1 is made of an iron metal material tube, which acts as a pressure-bearing tube in the pipeline and also acts as a yoke for the excitation coil.
