Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of enamel steel detection, and relates to a double electrolytic cell for detecting enamel steel scale explosion. Background Technique

[0002] Enamel steel products are widely used in industries such as light industry, household appliances, metallurgy, chemical engineering, and construction. However, scale explosion is the most common product defect of enamel products. It will cause the enamel coating to break and peel off, directly exposing the metal substrate, leading to rust and even perforation, which means the scrapping of enamel steel products. Therefore, currently, relevant standards such as BS EN 10209-2023, ISO 10209-2014, and GB / T 29515-2013 are mainly used to evaluate the scale explosion resistance performance of steel plates. Among them, the BS EN 10209-2023 standard is generally recognized by many enterprises. Around the BS EN 10209-2023 standard, domestic innovation work on relevant enamel scale explosion performance detection devices has been carried out, such as patent CN111650258A, named "Double electrolysis experimental detection device and method for enamel steel scale explosion performance". Patent CN105486739A, named "Detection device and method for scale explosion resistance of steel for enamel based on micro differential pressure principle", patent CN109212004A, named "Drainage hydrogen measurement experimental detection device and detection method for enamel steel scale explosion performance", patent CN109490398A, named "Double electrolysis experimental detection device and detection method for enamel steel scale explosion performance".

[0003] For the enamel steel scale explosion performance detection device of the BS EN 10209-2023 standard, the experimental sample plate separates the experimental tank in the detection device to form an upper cavity and a lower cavity. The shape of the lower cavity is an inverted triangle, and there are two outlets at the bottom of the triangle, which are respectively connected to two capillary tubes. The outer end of one capillary tube is blocked by a sealing plug, and the other capillary tube extends outward and upward. The hydrogen gas precipitated excludes the liquid, causing the liquid level in the capillary tube to rise. And the rise of the liquid level in the capillary tube is caused by the increase in the volume of hydrogen gas precipitated on the lower surface of the sample plate. Therefore, it detects the liquid level height in the capillary tube through a photoelectric sensor.

[0004] For patent CN109490398A, named "Double electrolysis experimental detection device and detection method for enamel steel scale explosion performance", its experimental tank is separated by a sample plate to form an upper cavity of the experimental tank and a lower cavity of the experimental tank. The shape of the lower cavity of the experimental tank is an inverted triangle, and there is only one tubular outlet at its bottom, and the size is relatively large. It is equipped with a temperature control serpentine tube, a temperature measuring probe, a second pair of electrodes, and a reference electrode. It measures the change in current when hydrogen gas is precipitated through the second pair of electrodes, the sample plate, and the reference electrode connected to a potentiostat.

[0005] For patent CN109212004A, titled "An Experimental Detection Device and Method for Measuring Hydrogen by Draining Liquid for Scaling and Explosion Performance of Enamel Steel", the designed experimental tank is separated by a sample plate to form an upper cavity and a lower cavity. The shape of the lower cavity is an inverted triangle, and it has only one tubular outlet at the bottom, with a relatively large size, which is connected to a capillary to form a U shape. There are two resistance wires fixed in the capillary channel, and the part of the capillary channel section with the resistance wires is partially immersed in the conductive solution. The two resistance wires form a circuit through the conductive solution. It is connected to the two resistance wires through an electrical signal measuring instrument to detect the change of the circuit electrical signal to record the rise of the capillary liquid level, that is, to measure the relationship between the volume of hydrogen evolution and time in real time.

[0006] For patent CN111650258A, titled "Double Electrolysis Experimental Detection Device and Method for Scaling and Explosion Performance of Enamel Steel", the designed double electrolysis experimental detection device consists of a hydrogen charging tank and a hydrogen expansion tank, which are horizontally placed. There is a space for placing a sample plate in the middle. The motor is connected to a push rod, and the push rod is installed on the push rod guide rail and is on one side of the hydrogen charging tank. The hydrogen expansion tank is a fixed tank relative to the hydrogen charging tank. There is a pressure sensor on the rear end face of the hydrogen expansion tank, and the pressure sensor is connected to the motor through a central control computer; the hydrogen charging liquid storage tank and the hydrogen expansion liquid storage tank are placed side by side in a vertically arranged liquid storage moving tank. The designed experimental tank can facilitate the unloading and installation of the experimental solution. The main purpose is to achieve pollution-free recovery of all experimental solutions, without dripping and affecting the environment. In addition, it can also avoid the rupture of the flange edges of the hydrogen charging tank and the hydrogen expansion tank caused by excessive clamping force when manually installing the sample, or the liquid leakage in the cavities of the hydrogen charging tank and the hydrogen expansion tank caused by insufficient clamping force.

[0007] Among the above three methods, the double electrolysis tanks of the two invention patents, patent CN109490398A (Experimental Detection Device and Method for Measuring Hydrogen by Draining Liquid for Scaling and Explosion Performance of Enamel Steel) and patent CN109212004A (An Experimental Detection Device for Measuring Hydrogen by Draining Liquid for Scaling and Explosion Performance of Enamel Steel), are vertically placed in the same way as the BS EN 10209-2023 standard, while the double electrolysis tank of the invention patent CN111650258A (Double Electrolysis Experimental Detection Device and Method for Scaling and Explosion Performance of Enamel Steel) is horizontally placed. Obviously, none of the above three methods mention how to solve the problem of removing the residual air in the oxidation cell B, or the anode cell or the hydrogen expansion tank after clamping the test sample, and the residual air will affect the accuracy of the test results. Summary of the Invention

[0008] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a double electrolysis tank for detecting the scaling and explosion of enamel steel in order to overcome at least one defect of the above existing technologies. The present invention meets the experimental method requirements of the BS EN 10209-2023 standard, can quickly and accurately obtain the hydrogen penetration curve of the steel plate, and can also be used in other detection methods to evaluate the scaling and explosion sensitivity of enamel steel plates.

[0009] The object of the present invention can be achieved by the following technical solutions:

[0010] One of the technical solutions of the present invention is to provide a double electrolytic cell for detecting enamel steel scab explosion. The double electrolytic cell is composed of a top container and a bottom container; the top container serves as electrolytic cell A, that is, a hydrogen charging pool, or a cathode pool, and the bottom container serves as electrolytic cell B, that is, a hydrogen diffusion pool, or an anode pool. The top container is vertically placed on the bottom container, and the bottom container is installed on two support plates;

[0011] Electrolytic cell B is installed on two support plates through bearings and fixed by pins in the pin through holes on the support plates; when the pin is pulled out from the pin blind hole of electrolytic cell B, electrolytic cell B can rotate freely around the bearing.

[0012] Furthermore, electrolytic cell A is made of polytetrafluoroethylene, and its shape is similar to a high-neck flange, with a height of 100 mm. However, the flange is rectangular in shape, with a thickness of more than 30 mm, a length of 100 mm, and a width of 70 mm; the neck is in the shape of a circular hollow tube and is located at the center of the rectangular flange; the inner diameter of the hollow tube is 40 mm, the outer circle is concentric with the inner circle, and the wall thickness of the inner and outer circles is 15 - 50 mm; three through holes with a diameter of 5.5 mm are provided on each of the two sides of the rectangular flange.

[0013] Furthermore, electrolytic cell B is made by 3D printing with transparent resin, and its shape is similar to a cylindrical part with a flange. The outside of the cylinder is square, with a side length of 50 mm. There is a cylindrical pit inside the cylinder, with a diameter of 40 mm and a depth of 35 mm. This pit can be used as a container; the shape, size, and function of the flange on its upper part are the same as those of the rectangular flange. Three through holes are provided on each of the two sides of the rectangular flange. Since 3D printing cannot manufacture threads, threaded sleeves are inlaid in the through holes by a hot melting process to enhance the fastening between the copper sleeve and the flange. The thread size is M5, the outer diameter of the copper sleeve is 7 mm, and the height is 15 mm.

[0014] Furthermore, a square tube is located at the center of the rectangular flange, and there is a ring of tenon groove surfaces around the round hole near the surface of the rectangular flange platform.

[0015] Furthermore, at one end of each of the two sides of the square tube on the long side of the rectangular flange, there is a hollow cylindrical convex neck with an inner diameter of 1 mm, a protruding length of 15 mm, and an outer diameter of 6.5 mm. At the other end, there is a through hole with a diameter of 5 mm, which is connected to a plastic hose joint; on each of the two sides of the square tube on the short side of the rectangular flange, there is a cylindrical convex platform with a diameter of 5 mm for installing bearings, and there are also blind holes for fixing pins, with a diameter of 5 mm.

[0016] Furthermore, a conical funnel for converging residual air exists inside the hollow cylindrical convex neck with an inner diameter of 1 mm, which is more convenient for air discharge.

[0017] Furthermore, the support plate is made of PLA material and is manufactured by 3D printing. There is a bearing installation through-hole and a pin through-hole on the upper part of the support plate.

[0018] Furthermore, the double electrolytic cell is fixed on two support plates, which form a set of detection devices. This device can be arranged repeatedly, and multiple groups can be arranged side by side horizontally or front and back on a bottom plate.

[0019] Furthermore, electrolytic cell A is vertically placed on electrolytic cell B. The flange plane of electrolytic cell A directly faces the tenon-groove surface of the flange of electrolytic cell B. The inner round holes of the upper and lower electrolytic cells are aligned. At the same time, the threaded holes of the flange and the flange also need to be aligned. Place the metal sample to be tested in the middle of the rectangular flange and the rectangular flange. Add gaskets on both sides of the metal sample to be tested, and then put bolts into the through-holes of the flange and the threaded holes of the flange. Use a torque wrench to tighten all bolts with the same torque to fasten electrolytic cell A and electrolytic cell B, clamp the metal sample to be tested, and seal electrolytic cell B to prevent tilting and water leakage caused by uneven pressure.

[0020] The steps of putting electrolyte into the double electrolytic cell are to put electrolytic cell B first and then electrolytic cell A. The specific steps are as follows: Put electrolyte into the container of electrolytic cell B after the bolts are sealed. The method of putting the liquid is to inject it through a plastic hose connector. In order to prevent air from existing in electrolytic cell B, pull out the pin of electrolytic cell B and rotate the double electrolytic cell until the hollow cylindrical convex neck of electrolytic cell B is at the top. Continue to inject liquid through the plastic hose connector until all the air in the container of electrolytic cell B is completely removed. Then lock the plastic hose, rotate the double electrolytic cell to the vertical position of the top container and the bottom container again, and insert the pin to fix electrolytic cell B. Then put electrolyte on the upper part of electrolytic cell A. Then conduct tests according to the detection standard of the anti-scaling explosion performance of enameled steel in BS EN 10209-2023.

[0021] Furthermore, after the test is completed, first pull out the pin of electrolytic cell B, rotate the double electrolytic cell, pour out the electrolyte in the top electrolytic cell A into the receiving container. After all the electrolyte is completely poured out, then open the plastic hose connector of electrolytic cell B to drain the deionized water in the bottom container into the receiving container, and then close the plastic hose connector.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0023] (1) The present invention meets the experimental method required by the BS EN 10209-2023 standard, can quickly and accurately obtain the hydrogen penetration curve of the steel plate, and can also be used in other detection methods to evaluate the scaling explosion sensitivity of enameled steel plates.

[0024] (2) To prevent air from existing in electrolytic cell B, the present invention withdraws the pins of electrolytic cell B and rotates the double electrolytic cell around the bearing until the hollow cylindrical neck of electrolytic cell B is at the uppermost position, and continues to inject liquid through the plastic hose connector until the air in the container of electrolytic cell B is completely exhausted;

[0025] (3) There is a conical funnel for converging residual air inside the hollow cylindrical neck of the present invention, which is more convenient for exhausting air. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0052] At one end of each side of the square tube located on the long side of the rectangular flange 302, there is a hollow cylindrical convex neck 306 with an inner diameter of 1 mm, a protruding length of 15 mm, an outer diameter of 6.5 mm, and at the other end, there is a third through hole 305 with a diameter of 5 mm, which is the same as that in Figure 8It is connected to the shown plastic hose joint 308. The plastic hose joint 308 is equipped with a nut. There is a boss 307 inside the third through-hole 305 to facilitate the installation of the plastic hose joint 308.
