Description
Technical Field

[0002] Turbidity measurement of water quality is of great significance to both industrial and domestic water use. Turbidity measurement of water quality is mainly carried out through special turbidity measurement devices. Currently, common turbidity measurement devices are carried out through transmission method and scattering method. The transmission method calculates the attenuation of light after passing through the water body, and the scattering method measures the intensity of scattered light at 90 degrees to the incident light. The turbidity value of the water sample is obtained through the corresponding relationship between scattered light and turbidity.
[0003] In the prior art, the device for measuring turbidity by scattering method mainly includes a flow channel for the water sample to be tested to flow and a detection light path for detecting the turbidity value of the water sample. The incident light in the detection light path irradiates the water sample to be tested flowing through the flow channel and then scatters. The intensity of the scattered light is detected to obtain the turbidity value of the water sample. In long-term measurement, the device is easily contaminated by impurities in the water sample because the flow channel is in contact with the water sample to be tested for a long time. When impurities exist at the position on the flow channel where the detection light path passes, it will affect the measurement results and needs to be cleaned frequently. Summary of the invention

[0026] A detection chamber 1a for turbidity detection is provided in the housing 1, a water inlet channel 1b for the water sample to be tested to enter and communicate with the detection chamber 1a is vertically provided in the upper end of the housing 1, and a drainage channel 1c for the water sample to be tested to flow out and communicate with the detection chamber 1a is vertically provided in the lower end of the housing 1, and the drainage channel 1c is located directly below the water inlet channel 1b. To ensure that the water sample to be tested can flow out smoothly along the drainage channel, the inner diameter of the drainage channel 1c is larger than the water inlet channel 1b. During installation, the housing is kept horizontal so that the water sample to be tested can be in the shape of a water column under the action of gravity, and pass through the water inlet channel, the detection chamber and the drainage channel in turn, which is not only convenient for automatic water inlet and water outlet, but also prevents the water sample to be tested from contacting the wall of the detection chamber, so that no dirt is generated on the wall of the detection chamber, ensuring that the device does not need to be cleaned.
[0027] To realize scattered light detection, an incident channel 1d for incident light to pass through and connected to the detection cavity 1a is provided in the housing 1, and a receiving channel 1f for receiving scattered light and connected to the detection cavity 1a is provided in the housing 1, and the angle between the incident channel 1d and the receiving channel 1f is 90°, wherein the light source device is provided at one end of the incident channel 1d away from the detection cavity 1a, and the receiving device is provided at one end of the receiving channel 1f away from the detection cavity 1a.

[0029] In order to reduce the influence of stray light, a vertically arranged light absorption well 1g for absorbing stray light is provided at the lower end of the housing 1, and the light absorption well 1g is connected to the detection cavity 1a through a light absorption channel 1h. It is best to have two light absorption wells symmetrically arranged at the lower end of the housing.

[0030] In order to facilitate the entry of the water sample to be tested, a water inlet pipe 8 is arranged in the water inlet channel 1b, and the upper end of the water inlet pipe is arranged higher than the outer shell. In order to achieve the fixation of the water inlet pipe, a fixed joint 9 for fixing the upper end of the water inlet pipe 8 is arranged at the end of the water inlet channel 1b away from the detection chamber 1a, and at the same time, in order to ensure that the water inlet pipe can be accurately located in the middle of the incident channel and the receiving channel, a fixing component for fixing the water inlet pipe 8 is arranged at the lower end of the water inlet pipe 8.

In order to reduce the distance between the incident channel, the receiving channel and the water sample to be tested, an extension section extending inward and downward is provided at the upper end of the light-absorbing inner shell, and the extension section is provided with extension through holes corresponding to the incident channel and the receiving channel respectively. The setting of the light-absorbing inner shell, the water inlet pipe and the drain pipe can also effectively prevent the water sample to be tested from generating dirt after long-term contact with the outer shell.

The detection device can be arranged to include a horizontal detection sensor embedded in the housing.
[0036] In order to reduce the size of the entire device, it is best that the upper end of the shell is symmetrically provided with two inclined surfaces, and correspondingly, to ensure the installation of the entire shell, the upper end of the installation slot is set as the small end. It is best that the level detection sensor is set at the front side of the water inlet pipe, and the wire passage is set at the rear side of the water inlet pipe. At the same time, in order to prevent the first air permeable plug and the window plug from being installed incorrectly, an identification mark is set at the end of the shell for installing the window plug.
[0037] When the device is in use, it is connected to the water sample to be tested through a pipeline, and then enters the water inlet pipe under the action of the power in the pipeline. Then, the water sample to be tested passes through the water inlet pipe, the light-absorbing inner shell cavity and the drain pipe in sequence under the action of gravity. The control board controls the light source to emit incident light. After passing through the incident channel, the incident light is irradiated on the water column in the detection cavity and scattered. The scattered light at 90° to the incident light is received by the receiver after passing through the receiving channel. The receiver obtains the turbidity of the water sample to be tested by the intensity of the received light signal.
