Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of oxygen generator flow detection, and particularly relates to a detection device for an oxygen generator flowmeter based on an imaging system. Background Art

[0002] Oxygen generator flowmeters are mainly divided into two types: float flowmeters and turbine flowmeters. The float flowmeter calculates the flow rate by measuring the volume of fluid passing through the pipeline and is suitable for small flow rate measurements; while the turbine flowmeter calculates the flow rate by measuring the rotational speed of the turbine driven by the fluid and is suitable for large flow rate measurements. Among them, the detection principle for the float flowmeter is based on buoyancy balance and variable area measurement. The float flowmeter mainly consists of a vertically tapered tube that expands from bottom to top and a float that moves up and down along the axis of the tapered tube. When the gas flows upward through the annular gap formed by the tapered tube and the float, a pressure difference is generated between the upper and lower ends of the float, forming a force for the float to rise. When the upward force acting on the float is greater than its weight in the gas, the float rises, the annular gap area increases, the flow velocity decreases, and the pressure difference decreases until the upward force is equal to the weight of the float, and the float stabilizes at a certain height. Generally, the pressure and the position of the float are compared by visual imaging. The detection principle of the visual imaging flowmeter is mainly based on image processing technology. The position of the float is captured by a camera, and then the corresponding scale of the float is compared with the pressure input into the float flowmeter. The way to control the pressure is to adjust the pressure valve to control the gas flow rate. The pressure valve usually has a sealing material inside to avoid gas leakage, otherwise it will lead to inaccurate detection data. Currently, the sealing material inside the pressure valve cannot be fully utilized. When the sealing performance of the sealing material decreases, it is replaced resolutely, which results in a large amount of waste of the sealing material and cannot be fully utilized.

Specific embodiments

[0014] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described in detail and non - restrictively below in conjunction with the preferred embodiments and their accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0015] Please refer to Figures 1 - 11 , the present invention provides a technical solution: A detection device for an oxygen generator flowmeter based on an imaging system, including a platform 1, a support plate is fixed on one side of the platform 1, a display board 2 is fixed on the other side, a visual imager 3 is fixed inside the support plate, a flowmeter is arranged above the platform 1, and a fixed cylinder 4 is arranged above the flowmeter, and the fixed cylinder 4 is fixedly connected with the inside of the display board 2; A pressure regulating valve 5 is fixed above the platform 1. The pressure regulating valve 5 is provided with an air inlet and an air outlet. The flowmeter is provided with an input end and an output end. The pressure regulating valve 5 includes a hollow cavity 51, a hollow pipe 52, an air duct 53 and a valve block. The air inlet is connected to an external gas source pipeline, the air outlet is connected to the input end pipeline, the output end is connected to an external pipeline, the air inlet is connected to the hollow pipe 52, the hollow pipe 52, the air duct 53 and the hollow cavity 51 communicate with each other, the air outlet is connected to the left side of the hollow cavity 51, the valve block is arranged in the hollow cavity 51 and is mutually fitted with the air duct 53. The visual imager 3 is connected to a computer display screen, and a visual imaging system is arranged in the computer display screen. The visual imaging system is used to photograph the flowmeter through the visual imager 3 and transmit the image of the float flowmeter into the computer display screen. By comparing the set scale value with the scale value presented in the image, the detection parameters of the float flowmeter are tested; Place the flowmeter below the fixed cylinder 4, then start the fixed cylinder 4. The fixed cylinder 4 presses on the flowmeter to stabilize it. After that, start detecting the flowmeter. The external air source enters the pressure regulating valve 5 through the air inlet. The gas enters the air passage 53 through the hollow tube 52, then enters the hollow cavity 51 through the air passage 53, and then enters the input end through the air outlet and then into the flowmeter. The float in the flowmeter is pushed by the air pressure and slides upward inside the flowmeter. Then the gas at the bottom of the float enters above the float through both sides of the float and is discharged through the output end. After the float stabilizes, the flowmeter is photographed by the visual imager 3 and transmitted to the computer display screen for imaging through the visual imaging system. According to the pressure value adjusted by the pressure regulating valve 5 and the position scale of the float in the flowmeter, relative conversion and comparison are carried out to determine whether there are defects in the flowmeter. The detection process is automated, the operation is convenient and efficient, and compared with traditional manual identification, the accuracy of identifying the scale position of the float through imaging is higher, and the detection accuracy and quality are high; When the pressure regulating valve 5 adjusts the pressure, by rotating the valve block, the size of the air passage 53 blocked by it is controlled, so as to control the flow rate of the gas discharged from the air passage 53 into the hollow cavity 51, thereby controlling the pressure. The adjustment is convenient and efficient, and the adjustment accuracy is high, which can relatively further improve the detection accuracy of the flowmeter.

[0016] The valve block includes a disc 54, a sealing block 55, an output shaft 56 and a turntable 57. Scales are provided on the surfaces of the pressure regulating valve 5 and the turntable 57 and are aligned with each other; A through hole is provided on one side of the pressure regulating valve 5, and the output shaft 56 is inserted through the through hole. The turntable 57 is fixed to one end of the output shaft 56, the disc 54 is fixed to the other end of the output shaft 56. The sealing block 55 is fixedly installed on one side of the disc 54 by screws, and its outer surface fits with the bottom of the air passage 53. A slot is provided in the middle of the disc 54, and an insertion block is provided on the outer side of one end of the output shaft 56 and is inserted into the slot through the insertion block. The sealing block 55 is made of plastic material; When adjusting the pressure of the pressure regulating valve 5, the operator rotates the turntable 57, drives the disc 54 to rotate through the output shaft 56, thereby driving the sealing block 55 to rotate around the center, controlling the size of the air passage 53 blocked by the sealing block 55, so as to control the gas discharge speed and the air pressure. According to the scale corresponding to the rotation of the turntable 57, the adjusted air pressure can be judged. The adjustment accuracy is high, convenient and fast, and it is convenient to improve the subsequent detection accuracy of the flowmeter. The plastic sealing block 55 has the ability to deform, so when it fits with the inner wall of the hollow cavity 51, it can ensure the sealing effect, reduce gas leakage, and thus accurately control the flow rate of the gas discharged from the air passage 53; After the pressure regulating valve 5 has been used for a period of time, the operator can pull out the output shaft 56 through the turntable 57 so that it is disengaged from the slot. At this time, the operator blows air into the pressure regulating valve 5 through the air outlet and the through hole to clean it, avoiding the presence of impurities inside after long-term testing, which may affect the gas flow and cause blockage, thus preventing the detection accuracy of the flowmeter from being affected.

[0017] An arc-shaped block 511 is fixed to the inner wall of the hollow cavity 51. A pressing block 512 is arranged inside the arc-shaped block 511, and two elastic springs 513 are fixed between the pressing block 512 and the arc-shaped block 511. A pushing block 541 is fixed to one side of the disc 54. The edges of the pushing block 541 and the pressing block 512 are both arc-shaped. After the disc 54 rotates clockwise, the pressing block 512 comes into contact with the pushing block 541. When the turntable 57 is rotated clockwise, the disc 54 rotates clockwise, the pushing block 541 and the sealing block 55 rotate synchronously. The right side of the sealing block 55 is in contact with and pressed against the right inner wall of the hollow cavity 51. At the same time, the pushing block 541 is pressed against the pressing block 512. The pressing block 512 presses the elastic spring 513 through the arc-shaped block 511 to cause deformation and generate a reaction force, so that the pushing block 541 applies a force to the upper right corner, improving the fitting strength between the sealing block 55 and the inner wall of the hollow cavity 51 to enhance the sealing performance and prevent gas from leaking from the fitting part, which may affect the pressure accuracy and thus the detection accuracy.

[0018] The inner side of the pressing block 512 is arc-shaped, and the radian gradually increases from right to left. Example 1: When the air pressure is reduced, the rotation angle of the pushing block 541 is small, and the contact surface with the pressing block 512 is small. At this time, the inner side of the pressing block 512 with a small radian provides a large force to the pushing block 541, further preventing gas from leaking from the right side of the sealing block 55 and achieving a good sealing effect. Example 2: After the pressure is increased, the rotation angle of the pushing block 541 is large, and the contact surface with the pressing block 512 is large. At this time, the pushing block 541 rotates to the large-radian part of the pressing block 512, and the pressing force of the pressing block 512 on the pushing block 541 decreases, so that the acting force of the sealing block 55 on the inner wall of the hollow cavity 51 decreases. However, at this time, the contact surface between the sealing block 55 and the inner wall of the hollow cavity 51 is large, which can not only ensure that gas does not leak, but also relatively reduce the deformation strength of the sealing block 55, thereby relatively increasing its service life and reducing the replacement cost.

[0019] In the initial state of the pressure regulating valve 5, the output shaft 56 is not fully inserted into the slot. A sliding hole 542 is arranged inside the disc 54. A ejector rod 543 is slidably connected inside the sliding hole 542. The inner end of the ejector rod 543 is located in the slot, and the outer end is in contact with the left side of the sealing block 55. The front end part of the output shaft 56 is arc-shaped. Embodiment Three: After the pressure regulating valve 5 has been used for a long time, the wear between the outer ring of the sealing block 55 and the inner wall of the hollow cavity 51 is severe. At this time, push the turntable 57 to drive the output shaft 56 to insert into the slot. The arc part at the front end of the output shaft 56 contacts the inner end of the ejector rod 543 and squeezes the ejector rod 543, causing it to slide outward through the sliding hole 542, so that its outer end squeezes the left side of the sealing block 55. The sealing block 55 exerts a thrust force to the right, so that the left part of the sealing block 55 squeezes the connection part between the air passage 53 and the hollow cavity 51, fully avoiding gas leakage from the connection part, improving the sealing strength, maximizing the utilization of the sealing block 55, and greatly reducing the replacement cost; Embodiment Four: The pressure regulating valve 5 has been used for a short time. The sealing block 55 has good deformation ability and good sealing effect. The output shaft 56 is in the initial state, so the wear of the sealing block 55 can be relatively reduced, and its service life can be further improved.

[0020] A mating block 514 is fixed to the front end of the arc-shaped block 511. A hole is provided on the left side of the mating block 514, and a spring and a sliding rod 515 are arranged in the hole. The inner diameter of the middle of the hole is larger than that of both ends, and the spring is arranged in the middle part. The spring and the sliding rod 515 are fixed to each other. One end of the sliding rod 515 is spherical, and a support block 516 is fixed to the other end. The inner end of the support block 516 is arc-shaped, and after the sliding rod 515 moves, the support block 516 contacts the outer side of the pressing block 512; A top disc 544 is fixed to the front end of the push block 541. The surface of the top disc 544 is arc-shaped, and after the disc 54 rotates to the limit position, the top disc 544 contacts the spherical part of the sliding rod 515.

[0021] Two elastic springs 513 are arranged oppositely; Embodiment Five: When the pressure is adjusted to the maximum, at this time the top disc 544 rotates to contact the spherical part of the sliding rod 515 and pushes the sliding rod 515 to move. The spring in the hole is deformed by the force. The support block 516 squeezes the pressing block 512 and fits with the left side of the pressing block 512. The left side of the pressing block 512 receives an upward acting force, so as to relatively increase the extrusion force of the sealing block 55 on the inner wall of the hollow cavity 51, thereby relatively increasing the sealing strength, and preventing the lack of interaction force after the push block 541 rotates to the large arc part of the pressing block 512 due to wear, thus preventing the influence on the sealing performance; Through the two elastic springs 513, when the support block 516 squeezes the pressing block 512, the acting forces on the left and right sides of the pressing block 512 on the push block 541 are kept balanced, so as to further improve the sealing stability and achieve the purpose of making the best use of the sealing block 55.

[0022] There are two sliding holes 542, and they are arranged adjacent to each other; Regarding the wear of the sealing block 55, when the wear is relatively severe, the ejector rod 543 is inserted into the right sliding hole 542. At this time, after the ejector rod 543 is ejected, it leans against the inner side of the sealing block 55, and the sealing strength is guaranteed; When the wear is extremely severe, the ejector rod 543 is inserted into the left sliding hole 542. At this time, after the ejector rod 543 is ejected, it leans against the outer side of the sealing block 55. The left part of the sealing block 55 strengthens the extrusion force on the connection part between the air passage 53 and the hollow cavity 51, and the sealing strength is further improved. It is possible not to replace the sealing block 55. After that, if the detected data is inconsistent, then replace the sealing block 55 to make full use of each sealing block 55, greatly reducing the cost, with simple operation and no impact on the sealing effect.
