Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of liquor filling equipment, in particular to a device for improving the precise measurement of liquor transported over a long distance. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the modern liquor production industry, the filling step is a key step to ensure product quality and consistency. The liquor filling production line is usually equipped with a long conveying pipeline. Due to the viscosity and surface tension characteristics of the liquor, when the liquor flows at high speed in the pipeline, it is affected by various factors such as pumping, disturbance of the internal structure of the pipeline, and friction between the liquid and the pipe wall. Air is continuously entrained into the liquor, forming bubbles of various sizes. These bubbles are transported forward with the liquor. When the liquor containing bubbles reaches the metering device, the bubbles occupy a certain space, causing the metering device to perceive a liquid volume that contains a large amount of "false" bubble volume, resulting in a deviation in the final detection data, and the actual amount of bottled liquor does not meet the standard requirements. SUMMARY

[0003] The present application aims to provide a device for improving the precise measurement of liquor transported over a long distance, to reduce the amount of bubbles in the liquor entering the metering device.

[0005] The working principle and beneficial effects of the present scheme are as follows: the liquid outlet is closed and the liquid inlet is opened, and the wine enters the semicircular liquid guide cavity from the liquid inlet, and the rotating shaft is connected in the liquid guide cavity, the rotating shaft is uniformly distributed with a plurality of liquid guide pieces, and the rotating shaft is provided with a ratchet, and the box body is provided with a pawl, when the wine enters the liquid guide cavity, the liquid guide piece is impacted, and the rotating shaft and the liquid guide piece are rotated. Then, the wine flows into the transition cavity, the height of the transition cavity is greater than that of the liquid guide cavity, which provides a relatively spacious space for the wine to buffer until the wine rises to the bottom of the baffle, the liquid outlet is opened, and the bubbles in the wine float to the top of the wine. In this process, since the baffle is located in the running path of the liquid guide piece, when the liquid guide piece rotates to push the wine forward, the baffle can slide within a certain range under the cooperation of the guide rod and the spring, since the baffle is fixedly connected with the defoaming assembly, the fixed plate and the plurality of defoaming needles in the defoaming assembly can directly act on the bubbles on the top of the wine, greatly improving the defoaming effect and effectively reducing the bubble content in the wine entering the quantitative device, thereby improving the precise measurement of the wine transported over a long distance.

[0006] Further, the defoaming assembly comprises a fixed plate and a plurality of defoaming needles fixedly connected to the fixed plate, the fixed plate is fixedly connected to one side of the baffle away from the liquid inlet, and the fixed plate is located directly below the spring. The plurality of defoaming needles can better pierce the bubbles, thereby discharging the box.

[0007] Further, the fixed plate is equal in width to the transition cavity or slightly smaller than the transition cavity. It is ensured that the defoaming needles can cover most of the area of the wine in the transition cavity, avoiding dead angles for defoaming, so that the wine passing through the transition cavity can be effectively defoamed.

The external air is prevented from flowing back into the box body, the air pressure in the box body is maintained stable, the gas flow direction in the whole device is always outward, and the prevention of bubble regeneration is further consolidated.

[0012] Further, the liquid guide piece is provided with a notch, and a roller is rotatably connected to the notch. The roller contacts the inner wall of the liquid guide cavity and the baffle, which helps to reduce friction. Attached Figure Description

[0018] The liquid guide assembly comprises a rotating shaft 5 and three liquid guide sheets 4 fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 5, the extending direction of the rotating shaft 5 is consistent with the extending direction of the liquid guide cavity 2 and coaxial, one end of the rotating shaft 5 extends out of the box body 1 and is fixedly connected with a ratchet wheel 18, the outer wall of the box body 1 is provided with a ratchet pawl 19 matched with the ratchet wheel 18, the free end of the liquid guide sheet 4 is provided with a notch, the roller 3 is rotatably connected to the notch, the roller 3 is in contact with the inner wall of the liquid guide cavity 2, the length of the liquid guide sheet 4 is equal to or slightly smaller than the length of the liquid guide cavity 2; the transition cavity 7 is slidably connected with a baffle 6, specifically: the inner top of the box body 1 is provided with a limiting groove 15, the limiting groove 15 is slidably connected with a sliding block 14, the top of the baffle 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding block 14, the baffle 6 is located on the running path of the liquid guide sheet 4, the baffle 6 is located between the liquid inlet hole 17 and the liquid outlet hole 9, the opposite sides of the baffle 6 are respectively fixedly connected with a guide rod 16 and a spring 12, the spring 12 is located on the side of the baffle 6 away from the liquid inlet hole 17, the other end of the spring 12 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the box body 1, the inner wall of the box body 1 is provided with a supporting block 11, the extending direction of the supporting block 11 is consistent with the extending direction of the spring 12, the top of the supporting block 11 is provided with an arc-shaped groove, and the spring 12 is located in the arc-shaped groove; one end of the guide rod 16 away from the baffle 6 is slidably connected in the wall of the box body 1.

[0019] The defoaming assembly comprises a fixed plate 13 and six groups of defoaming needles 8 fixedly connected to the fixed plate 13, the fixed plate 13 is fixedly connected to the side of the baffle 6 away from the liquid inlet hole 17, the fixed plate 13 is located directly below the spring 12, and the fixed plate 13 is equal in width to the transition cavity 7 or slightly smaller than the width of the transition cavity 7; each group of defoaming needles 8 comprises a plurality of rows of defoaming needles 8 arranged in a matrix, and the plurality of rows of defoaming needles 8 on each adjacent group of defoaming needles 8 are staggered, and the bottommost defoaming needle 8 is flush with the bottom of the baffle 6.

[0020] The specific implementation process is as follows: in use, the device is installed between the pipeline and the quantitative device and close to the quantitative device, the liquid outlet hole 9 is closed, and the liquid inlet hole 17 is opened, at this time, the rotating shaft 5 in the liquid guide cavity 2 is kept stationary under the action of the ratchet wheel 18 and the ratchet pawl 19 mechanism, the liquid guide sheet 4 is also in a fixed position, and the baffle 6 in the transition cavity 7 is located at the initial position close to the liquid inlet hole 17 under the action of the spring 12.

[0021] When the wine is filled, the wine enters the liquid guide cavity 2 through the liquid inlet hole 17 under the action of the pump body, since the liquid guide cavity 2 is designed in a semicircle, Figure 1 for example, the ratchet pawl 19 prevents the ratchet wheel 18 and the rotating shaft 5 from rotating counterclockwise, the wine enters and flows along the cavity wall clockwise, and then impacts on the liquid guide sheet 4, the liquid guide sheet 4 is driven to rotate the rotating shaft 5 and the ratchet wheel 18 clockwise, thereby ensuring that the liquid guide sheet 4 continuously and stably drives the wine to flow to the transition cavity 7.

When the liquid level reaches the bottom of the baffle 6, the liquid outlet hole 9 is opened, at this time, under the action of the liquid flow inertia and the subsequent wine entering, the guide vane 4 continues to rotate and touches the baffle 6. The baffle 6 slides away from the liquid inlet hole 17 under the guidance of the guide rod 16 and overcomes the elastic force of the spring 12 to slide a certain distance, thereby leaving a channel for the wine to flow out.
