Description

[0002] At present, in the production process of lubricating oil, in order to ensure the quality of the lubricating oil produced, it is usually necessary to conduct multiple tests on the lubricating oil, including viscosity test. When conducting viscosity test, a capillary viscometer is often used. In the process of testing lubricating oil with an existing capillary viscometer, multiple preparations for the sample are required, and skilled operation skills are required. Bubbles are easily introduced during the processing and loading of samples, causing measurement errors, resulting in inaccurate measurement results.

[0003] For example, a viscosity detection device for lubricating oil production disclosed by announcement number CN214277787U has the problem that bubbles are easily generated during the stirring process of the lubricating oil, which causes measurement errors. A high-precision viscosity capillary detection device disclosed by announcement number CN111175183A, although it uses automatic image recognition technology to automatically identify whether the lubricating oil flows through the scale line, the lubricating oil is usually colored and a certain amount of lubricating oil will remain on the tube wall during the process of flowing down along the capillary, affecting the recognition accuracy and causing different measurement results. A capillary viscometer disclosed by announcement number CN219777414U, although it can fix the viscometer to prevent angle deviation during the measurement process, is prone to bubbles during sample injection due to the discontinuous injection process;

[0046] The present invention provides a viscosity detection device and detection method based on lubricating oil production. Compared with the prior art, it has the following beneficial effects:

[0047] (1) The viscosity detection device and detection method based on lubricating oil production use weighing to measure the viscosity of the lubricating oil. By recording the weight of the lubricating oil at each time point during its outflow, a more detailed flow curve is obtained, providing very accurate data. The device can be performed under static conditions, avoiding measurement errors caused by bubbles, improving measurement accuracy, and adapting to the measurement requirements of different sample quantities.

[0048] (2) The viscosity detection device and detection method based on lubricating oil production use a power motor to transfer the sample to be tested to the weighing sampling point. During the process, the storage cup can be automatically released to the weighing area for weighing before the sample lubricating oil is absorbed, which reduces the workload of operators, reduces the errors caused by human operation, and reduces the pollution that may be caused during manual operation. It can quickly switch between samples of different batches to perform viscosity detection to ensure product quality, and is convenient for the quality department to regularly perform viscosity detection on the inventory samples produced to ensure the stability of the product.

During the weighing detection process, a time interval is set so that the material removal rod intermittently wipes off the lubricating oil that has not completely fallen into the storage cup at the end of the suction pipe, so that there will be no lubricating oil between the suction pipe and the storage cup, thereby avoiding data fluctuations caused by variable interference at the end of the suction pipe, and further improving the measurement accuracy.

[0064] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. 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.

[0065] In the embodiments of the present application, the devices or elements referred to or implied must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the embodiments of the present application. In the description of the embodiments of the present application, the meaning of "multiple" is two or more, unless otherwise precisely and specifically specified.

[0066] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4As shown, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a viscosity detection device based on lubricating oil production, comprising a housing 1 with a control screen, a support column 13 fixed at the bottom of the housing 1 and cooperating with a base 11 to provide support, and a storage cup 47 for holding a sample, a support plate 12 for weighing the sample is installed on the support column 13, a weighing area is provided in the center of the support plate 12, and a detection component for detecting the viscosity of the lubricating oil is provided above the support plate 12, and the detection component includes: a suction pipe 2, a guide block 21, a capillary 22, a clamping ring 23, a tension sensor 24, an electric push rod 25, a hose 26, and an air pump 27;

[0067] One end of the suction pipe 2 is slidably disposed in the housing 1, and the end of the suction pipe 2 located in the housing 1 is connected to a capillary 22 to transport the lubricating oil to be tested to the capillary 22, and the other end of the suction pipe 2 is located between the housing 1 and the support plate 12, and directly above the storage cup 47;

[0068] The inner wall of the guide block 21 is fixedly mounted outside the suction pipe 2 and slidably penetrates the housing 1 to fix the angle of the capillary tube 22;

[0069] The detection end of the tension sensor 24 is fixedly mounted on the clamp ring 23, and the clamp ring 23 is fixedly sleeved outside the capillary 22. The weight of the capillary 22, the guide block 21, the suction pipe 2 and the internal lubricating oil sample is measured by the tension sensor 24;

[0070] One end of the electric push rod 25 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the inner wall of the housing 1, and the other end of the electric push rod 25 is fixedly mounted with a connecting plate, the bottom of the connecting plate is fixedly connected to one end of the tension sensor 24, and the connecting plate provides support for the tension sensor 24;

[0071] One end of the hose 26 is connected and installed at the branch of the capillary 22, and the other end of the hose 26 is connected and installed on the output end of the air pump 27. A mounting column is fixedly installed on the top of the air pump 27, and the top of the mounting column is fixedly installed on the top of the inner wall of the outer shell 1. The air pump 27 extracts gas from the capillary 22 and the suction pipe 2 through the hose 26.

[0072] When in use, the lubricating oil to be tested is put into the storage cup 47, and placed on the weighing area on the support plate 12 for weighing to obtain a known weight A. The weight of the empty storage cup 47 is a fixed value B. The weight of the empty capillary 22, the guide block 21 and the suction pipe 2 is measured by the tension sensor 24 to obtain a known weight C. Then the electric push rod 25 is started by the control panel. The electric push rod 25 drives the tension sensor 24 to move downward through the connecting plate. The tension sensor 24 drives the capillary 22 to move downward through the retaining ring 23. The capillary 22 drives the suction pipe 2 and the guide block 21 to move downward synchronously. The guide block 21 and the housing 1 are slidably matched so that the guide block 21 can only move in a straight line. When the suction pipe 2 extends into the storage cup 47 and reaches the suction position, the electric push rod 25 is controlled to stop moving, the end of the capillary 22 away from the suction pipe 2 is blocked, and the air is started. Pump 27, the air pump 27 is connected to the straight tube of the capillary 22 through the hose 26, so that the air pump 27 can suck the lubricating oil in the storage cup 47 from the suction pipe 2 into the capillary 22, and at most does not reach the corner just above the buffer ball of the capillary 22, turn off the air pump 27 and control the electric push rod 25 to move up again, move the suction pipe 2 out of the storage cup 47, stop moving and stay still for 2-3S after reaching the detection height, and use the tension sensor 24 to detect the total weight of the capillary 22, the guide block 21 and the suction pipe 2 after the lubricating oil is absorbed to obtain a known weight D, and the weighing area on the support plate 12 is used to weigh the remaining lubricating oil and the total weight E of the storage cup 47, and use the pressure sensor to detect the air pressure in the capillary 22 to obtain the pressure difference P at both ends of the capillary 22, the radius of the capillary 22 is a known value r, and the length of the capillary 22 is a known value L;

[0073] At this time, open the end of the capillary 22 away from the suction tube 2, so that the lubricating oil in the capillary 22 falls into the storage cup 47 below along the suction tube 2. The changes in the known weight D and the total weight E are detected in real time through the tension sensor 24 and the weighing area on the support plate 12 after the lubricating oil starts to fall, and a time interval is set, which is every second or every few seconds until the lubricating oil completely flows out of the capillary 22. After the detection, the final weight F of the storage cup 47 and the lubricating oil and the final weight G of the lubricating oil adhering to the capillary 22, the guide block 21, the suction tube 2 and the inner wall are obtained. The average flow rate Q in each time interval is obtained by calculation, and the viscosity of the measured lubricating oil can be calculated by substituting the above known values ​​into the Hagen-Poiseuille equation.

[0074] In another embodiment different from the above-mentioned embodiment, Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the detection assembly also includes: an isolation box 3, a sealing plate 31, a guide rod 32, a sliding electromagnet 33, a fixed electromagnet 34, a control switch 35, and a toggle rod 36;

[0075] One end of the isolation box 3 is fixedly sleeved on one end of the capillary 22 to adjust the air intake mode of the capillary 22. An air inlet is opened on the side wall of the isolation box 3 to isolate the end of the capillary 22 away from the suction pipe 2 through the isolation box 3.

[0076] The outer wall of the sealing plate 31 is slidably abutted against the inside of the isolation box 3 for closing or opening the air inlet, and a sliding electromagnet 33 is fixedly mounted on the side wall of the sealing plate 31;

[0077] One end of the guide rod 32 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the inner wall of the isolation box 3, and the other end of the guide rod 32 slides out from the sliding electromagnet 33. A fixed electromagnet 34 is fixed to one end of the guide rod 32, and the fixed electromagnet 34 is located directly above the sliding electromagnet 33.

[0078] The outer wall of the control switch 35 is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the isolation box 3, and the control switch 35 is used to control the magnetism between the sliding electromagnet 33 and the fixed electromagnet 34;

[0079] One end of the toggle rod 36 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the air pump 27 , and the other end of the toggle rod 36 is located below the control switch 35 for changing the state of the control switch 35 .

[0080] During use, when the suction pipe 2 extends into the storage cup 47 to prepare to absorb the lubricating oil, the capillary 22 drives the isolation box 3 to move downward synchronously, so that the isolation box 3 drives the control switch 35 to move downward synchronously. During the downward movement of the control switch 35, the control switch 35 is toggled by the toggle rod 36, so that the magnetism between the sliding electromagnet 33 and the fixed electromagnet 34 controlled by the control switch 35 becomes mutually exclusive, so that the sliding electromagnet 33 slides along the guide rod 32 to the side away from the fixed electromagnet 34, and the sliding electromagnet 33 drives the sealing plate 31 to slide synchronously, so that the sealing plate 31 blocks the air inlet on the isolation box 3. At this time, the air pump 27 is turned on to absorb the lubricating oil in the storage cup 47 into the capillary 22 through the suction pipe 2.

[0081] When the suction pipe 2 is driven by the electric push rod 25 to move up to the detection height, the capillary 22 drives the isolation box 3 to move up synchronously, so that the isolation box 3 drives the control switch 35 to move up synchronously. During the upward movement of the control switch 35, the toggle rod 36 toggles the control switch 35 again, so that the control switch 35 controls the magnetism between the sliding electromagnet 33 and the fixed electromagnet 34 to become attractive, so that the sliding electromagnet 33 slides along the guide rod 32 to the side close to the fixed electromagnet 34, so that the sealing plate 31 opens the air inlet on the isolation box 3. At this time, the lubricating oil in the suction pipe 2 and the capillary 22 will drip from the suction pipe 2 into the storage cup 47 below.

[0082] In another embodiment different from the aforementioned embodiment, the toggle rod 36 is no longer fixedly installed on the bottom of the air pump 27, but is fixedly installed on the output end of an electric telescopic rod. After moving to the detection height on the capillary 22 and pausing for 2-3S, the electric telescopic rod drives the toggle rod 36 to move and switch the magnetism of the fixed electromagnet 34 and the sliding electromagnet 33, so that the sealing plate 31 opens the air inlet. During the process of absorbing the lubricating oil, the electric telescopic rod also drives the toggle rod 36 to move and switch.

[0083] In another embodiment different from the aforementioned embodiment, in order to further reduce the influence of the sealing plate 31 on the known weight D during the opening and closing process, a magnetorheological damper or a component with the same function is arranged between the fixed electromagnet 34 and the sliding electromagnet 33, so that the influence of the sliding electromagnet 33 on the detection of the known weight D by the tension sensor 24 is minimized during the movement of the sliding electromagnet 33 along the guide rod 32.

[0086] One end of the power slide bar 41 is also provided with an inclined surface and is slidably adapted with the inclined surface provided on the push rod 4.

[0093] When in use, when the suction pipe 2 moves downward and extends into the storage cup 47 to absorb the lubricating oil, the guide block 21 will synchronously drive the push rod 4 to move downward, and the push rod 4 will squeeze the power slide bar 41 to move linearly along the support plate 43 and slide toward the side close to the rotating ring 48 through the sliding cooperation between the inclined surface of the push rod 4 and the inclined surface of the power slide bar 41, and the sliding cooperation between the power slide bar 41 and the support plate 43, so that the push rod 4 can finally extend from the through hole opened in the support plate 43 to the bottom of the support plate 43, and the power slide bar 41 will slide along the support plate 43. When the lever 43 moves, it drives the sliding rope 44 to move synchronously, and the sliding rope 44 drives the stopper 45 to move toward the side where the power slide rod 41 is located, so that the stopper 45 retracts into the fixed claw 431. At this time, the stopper 45 no longer provides support for the contact between the storage cup 47, and the storage cup 47 will fall to the weighing area on the lower support plate 12. At the same time, the handle of the storage cup 47 is still in the fixed claw 431, but the fixed claw 431 does not provide support for the storage cup 47. At this time, when the support plate 12 is weighed, the known weight A of the storage cup 47 and the internal lubricating oil can be measured;

[0094] Then the suction tube 2 moves up to the detection height, the push rod 4 is separated from the power slide bar 41, the power slide bar 41 is reset under the action of the spring 1 42, the power slide bar 41 no longer applies tension to the sliding rope 44, the sliding rope 44 no longer applies tension to the stopper 45, so that the stopper 45 is reset under the action of the spring 2 46, and the handle of the storage cup 47 is located just below the stopper 45 and just above the fixed claw 431;

[0095] After the detection is completed, the power motor 412 is started to drive the rotating shaft 411 to rotate, the rotating shaft 411 drives the gear 410 to rotate, the gear 410 drives the gear ring 49 to rotate with the support column 13 as the axis, the gear ring 49 drives the rotating ring 48 to rotate synchronously, the rotating ring 48 drives the support plate 43 and the fixed claw 431 to rotate, so that the fixed claw 431 drives the storage cup 47 to move out from the support plate 12, and the next storage cup 47 containing the lubricating oil to be tested is transferred to the support plate 12.

The material-moving rod 57 is flipped under the drive of the impact rod 54. The driven rod 56 is a telescopic rod that can automatically reset. When the rotating ring 48 rotates to switch the material storage cup 47, the driven rod 56 first slides and abuts against one of the impact rods 54 to shorten, and then automatically extends and resets when it rotates to between the two vertical parts of the H-shaped impact rod 54.

[0102] The inner wall of the material-moving rod 57 is fixedly connected to the turning shaft 58. One end of the material-moving rod 57 is located in the material storage cup 47. The other end of the material-moving rod 57 is approximately T-shaped and is located directly below the material suction pipe 2. It is used to cut off the lubricating oil connected between the material suction pipe 2 and the material storage cup 47 during detection.

[0103] Both ends of the turning shaft 58 are movably mounted in the material storage cup 47 through bearings to provide support for the material removing rod 57 .
