Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of float level gauges, in particular to a device for detecting the accuracy of a rocker-type magnetic level gauge. Background Art

[0002] Water tank testing and simulated liquid level testing are commonly used to test rocker-type magnetic level gauges to determine the gauge's indication error, set point error, and other factors. Water tank testing uses a method that uses the gauge being tested as a reference, meaning the liquid level on the test device is read based on the gauge being tested. However, some rocker-type magnetic level gauges have a magnetic attraction between the float and the rocker arm. When performing simulated testing using a conventional water tank, as liquid is poured in and out, the float may roll or even shift horizontally on the liquid surface, or even deviate from the rocker arm. In the simulated liquid level testing method, the float or rocker arm is manually moved, and the float's displacement is measured with a steel tape measure as the actual liquid level. The level gauge's indication is also recorded for testing. Factors such as manual operation force and inconsistent operation methods can lead to misjudgments.

[0003] Patent publication number CN104864940A discloses a float detection device for a float level gauge. The device includes a graduated cylinder with a scale marked in direct proportion from the top of the cylinder to the bottom, with the top of the cylinder as the zero mark. This device can restrain the float, preventing it from moving around as long as the cylinder's diameter is slightly larger than the float's. However, this solution is difficult to use with rocker-type magnetic level gauges. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The object of the present invention is to provide a rocker type magnetic level gauge usage accuracy detection device which is more convenient to detect and can be used for the rocker type magnetic level gauge usage accuracy detection.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention adopts a rocker-type magnetic liquid level gauge use accuracy detection device, including a measuring cylinder, a scale is provided on the measuring cylinder, the measuring cylinder is fixed to the base, a fixing frame fixed to the base is provided on the side of the measuring cylinder, and a fixing portion for fixing to the fixing seat of the rocker-type magnetic liquid level gauge is provided at the lower end of the fixing frame. The measuring cylinder includes, from bottom to top, a vertical fixing section and a measuring section made of a light-transmitting material, a liquid inlet and a liquid outlet are provided at the fixed section, the liquid inlet is equipped with a liquid inlet valve, and the liquid outlet is equipped with a liquid outlet valve. The measuring section is arc-shaped, the center of the arc formed by the measuring section is at the same height as the fixing portion, and the measuring section is symmetrically arranged above and below with the fixing portion as the center.

[0006] When testing the accuracy of a rocker-type magnetic level gauge, a float is placed in a graduated cylinder, and the mounting base of the rocker-type magnetic level gauge is fixed to a mounting bracket. The cylinder is then filled with liquid, and the scale readings on the graduated cylinder and the digital display or pointer dial at the mounting base of the level gauge are taken at different liquid levels. The accuracy is determined by comparing the graduated cylinder readings with the level gauge readings. The present invention, by providing an arc-shaped measuring section on the graduated cylinder, can restrict the float, preventing it from deviating from the rocker arm of the level gauge, facilitating simulated accuracy testing. Furthermore, only readings are required during testing, making the test very convenient.

[0007] The liquid inlet and outlet are both carried out in a fixed section, so that the flow direction of the liquid is relatively consistent during the inlet and outlet, reducing the sudden change of the liquid flow direction, reducing the eddy current and disturbance generated by the liquid during the flow process, which is conducive to the smooth flow of the liquid; at the same time, it helps to reduce the generation and mixing of bubbles, avoid a large number of bubbles at the liquid surface, and thus facilitate observation.

[0008] When the vertical fixed section bears the force from the liquid pressure, its own weight and the force from the connection with the base, the force is more uniform, which can ensure the structural stability of the measuring cylinder; the liquid flow path in the vertical fixed section is relatively straight, and the liquid encounters less resistance when flowing therein, and is less likely to generate eddy currents and local pressure losses, which is conducive to the stable flow and accurate measurement of the liquid. The tester can read the digital display screen at the measuring cylinder and the liquid level gauge fixing seat more quickly, making the detection of the present invention more convenient and faster.

[0009] The setting of the arc-shaped measuring section can match it with the swing trajectory of the rocker-type magnetic level gauge; the fixed part is the installation position of the rocker-type magnetic level gauge fixing base. Setting the center of the measuring section and the fixed part at the same height can ensure that the arc of the measuring section coincides with the rocker swing path of the level gauge, facilitating precise alignment and installation of the two, so that the level gauge can accurately perform liquid level detection on the measuring section.

[0010] Preferably, the upper end of the measuring section of the measuring cylinder is connected to an opening section with an opening at the upper end, the opening section and the fixed section are coaxial and both are vertically arranged, and the connection between the opening section and the measuring section is an arc transition.

[0011] The opening section can not only be used to place the float, but also to introduce liquid through the opening section, and cooperate with the liquid inlet valve to fill the measuring section faster; the arc transition is used at the connection between the opening section and the measuring section, which helps to reduce the impact and disturbance of the liquid during the flow process, thereby reducing the generation and mixing of bubbles, and facilitating subsequent detection.

[0012] Preferably, the scale includes scale lines, which are located on the side of the measuring section, and one end of the scale line is located in the middle of the measuring section along the front-to-back direction, and the line connecting the ends of all scale lines is parallel to the extension direction of the measuring section.

[0013] There are scale lines on the side of the measuring section, which makes it easier for inspectors to observe the center of the spherical or cylindrical float and take readings; the magnet of the float is generally set at the center of the float, and the end of the scale line is located in the middle of the measuring section in the front-to-back direction, which can make the end of the scale line closer to the center of the float, making it easier for inspectors to read.

[0014] Preferably, the scale value at the connection between the measuring section and the connecting section is 10%, the scale value at the connection between the measuring section and the opening section is 90%, and the scale value at the same height as the fixing portion is 50%.

[0015] The 10% and 90% scale values ​​respectively mark the starting and ending positions of the measuring section, clarifying the measurement range of the liquid level; the 50% scale value marks the middle position of the measuring section, that is, the midpoint of the liquid level, providing an important reference point for detection and facilitating observation by testers.

[0016] Preferably, the liquid inlet is higher than the liquid outlet. The higher position of the liquid inlet allows the liquid to more smoothly fill the entire fixed section and measuring section when injected into the graduated cylinder. At the same time, this design helps to expel air from the graduated cylinder during the liquid injection process.

[0017] Preferably, the fixing bracket includes a plurality of vertical portions disposed oppositely on the left and right sides, with a transversely disposed and detachably fixed fixing portion connected and fixed between the vertical portions on both sides. The fixing portion is detachably fixed to the fixing seat via fasteners, and the fixing portion is provided with mating holes for engaging the fasteners. By replacing different fixing portions, the fixing portion can be adapted to accommodate different types of liquid level gauges, thereby expanding the scope of applicability of the present invention.

[0018] The present invention also discloses a detection method using the above-mentioned rocker-type magnetic liquid level gauge accuracy detection device, comprising the following steps: S1. Adjust the relative position between the measuring cylinder and the fixed frame according to the main length of the rocker-type magnetic level gauge to be measured; S2.

Adjust the liquid level by adding or removing liquid from the measuring cylinder, causing the float to move accordingly. S4. Observe and record the value of the float position of the graduated cylinder and the value on the dial of the fixed base of the rocker-type magnetic level gauge after each liquid level change, and compare the two sets of values.

[0019] Preferably, in step S2, a certain amount of liquid is first injected into the measuring cylinder so that the liquid level is located in the fixed section or at the connection between the fixed section and the measuring section, so that the float first floats on the liquid, and then the rocker arm of the rocker-type magnetic level gauge is rotated so that the front end of the rocker arm and the float are magnetically attracted to each other.
