[0002] In industrial production, such as the gasification unit of thermal power and nuclear power, or the extraction and transportation of natural gas and oil, and the transportation of low-boiling-point liquids, there is a gas-liquid two-phase flow. In such a transportation pipeline, flow is the most basic parameter, and a two-phase flow meter is needed to collect it efficiently and accurately. The existing two-phase flow measuring device can basically meet the daily use requirements, but there are still some deficiencies that need to be improved.

[0039] As the preferred technical scheme of the embodiment, the outer side of the valve body 3 is provided with a limiting assembly for positioning the position of the operating handle 13, specifically, the limiting assembly limits the rotation of the operating handle 13, and further fixes the rotating positions of the first valve block 11 and the second valve block 12.
[0040] As a further preferred technical solution of the embodiment, the limiting assembly comprises a button 14 elastically movably arranged on the operating handle 13, a clamping block 15 is fixedly arranged on the button 14, a sleeve 16 is arranged outside the valve body 3 and surrounds the button 14, a plurality of clamping grooves 17 matched with the clamping block 15 are circumferentially arranged on the inner wall of the sleeve 16, specifically, an elastic groove is arranged in the rotating shaft of the operating handle 13, a spring is arranged in the elastic groove and connects the button 14, the spring hinders the movement of the button 14 into the elastic groove, so that the button 14 is automatically kept in the state of extending outward, which is convenient for pressing; the clamping block 15 extends radially from the button 14, under the elastic force, the position where the button 14 is at rest corresponds to the position of the sleeve 16 carrying the clamping block 15, when the clamping block 15 corresponds to the clamping groove 17, the clamping block 15 is automatically embedded in the clamping groove 17, thereby limiting the rotation of the operating handle 13; the sleeve 16 is in the shape of a rotating body and is internally provided with a cavity, the end of the sleeve 16 away from the valve body 3 is provided with the clamping groove 17, when the button 14 is pressed and drives the clamping block 15 to move away from the clamping groove 17, the clamping block 15 is accommodated into the cavity, at this time, the operating handle 13 rotates and the clamping block 15 can freely move in the cavity; a chamfer is arranged at the position where the inner wall of the cavity meets the clamping groove 17, which can facilitate the clamping block 15 to automatically identify the position of the clamping groove 17, when the clamping block 15 moves to the vicinity of the clamping groove 17, the chamfer assists the clamping block 15 to be embedded in the clamping groove 17; the clamping groove 17 is preferably four, which are uniformly distributed in the circumference, thereby enabling the operating handle 13 to rotate by an integer multiple of 90°, which matches the T-shaped distribution arranged on the valve body 3.
[0041] As a preferred technical solution of the embodiment, the side wall of the valve body 3 is provided with a first interface 18 and a second interface 19 corresponding to the first valve block 11 and the second valve block 12 respectively, a third interface 20 and a fourth interface 21 are arranged on the first pressure taker 5 and the second pressure taker 6 respectively, the two ends of the first conduit 9 are connected with the first interface 18 and the fourth interface 21 respectively, the two ends of the second conduit 10 are connected with the second interface 19 and the third interface 20 respectively, specifically, the first interface 18, the first pressure taker 5 and the first pressure taking pipe 7 form a T-shaped arrangement; the second interface 19, the second pressure taker 6 and the second pressure taking pipe 8 form a T-shaped arrangement; the third interface 20 is arranged on the upper side of the first interface 18, and the fourth interface 21 is arranged on the upper side of the second interface 19, thereby the first conduit 9 and the second conduit 10 form a cross arrangement.
[0042] Within the synchronous rotating movement range of the first valve block 11 and the second valve block 12, there are three effective positions:
[0043] The first position, referring to Figure 7 , the three-way pipeline of the first valve block 11 communicates with the first pressure taker 5 and the first pressure taking pipe 7, while the remaining branch pipelines are away from the direction of the first conduit 9, at the same time, the three-way pipeline of the second valve block 12 communicates with the second pressure taker 6 and the second pressure taking pipe 8, while the remaining branch pipelines are away from the direction of the second conduit 10, at this time, the measuring device is collecting the pressure difference in the forward direction;
[0044] second position, reference Figure 8 , the three-way pipe of the first valve block 11 communicates with the first pressure tapping pipe 7 and the first conduit 9, while the remaining branch pipes are away from the first conduit 9, at the same time, the three-way pipe of the second valve block 12 communicates with the second pressure tapping pipe 8 and the second conduit 10, while the remaining branch pipes are away from the second conduit 10, at this time, the first pressure tapping pipe 7 is connected to the second pressure tapping pipe 8 through the first conduit 9, the second pressure tapping pipe 8 is connected to the first pressure tapping pipe 7 through the second conduit 10, and the measuring device collects the pressure difference in the reverse direction;
[0045] third position, reference Figure 9 , the three-way pipe of the first valve block 11 communicates with the first pressure tapping pipe 5 and the first conduit 9, while the remaining branch pipes are away from the first conduit 9, that is, none of the branches of the three-way pipe of the first valve block 11 is connected to the first pressure tapping pipe 7, at the same time, the three-way pipe of the second valve block 12 communicates with the second pressure tapping pipe 6 and the second conduit 10, while the remaining branch pipes are away from the second conduit 10, that is, none of the branches of the three-way pipe of the second valve block 12 is connected to the second pressure tapping pipe 8, at this time, the first pressure tapping pipe 7 and the second pressure tapping pipe 8 are both closed, and the measuring device stops collecting the pressure difference, which can be used for disassembly and maintenance of the instrument head 2 and the pressure tapping pipe.
[0046] Since the first pressure tapping pipe 5 and the second pressure tapping pipe 6 are the detection terminals, it is difficult for the fluid to flow in other directions after entering, which may cause impurities to accumulate and affect the detection accuracy, and therefore needs to be cleaned regularly.
[0047] In another embodiment of the present application, the side wall of the valve body 3 is provided with a discharge port 22 corresponding to the second valve block 12, and a sealing member 23 is detachably arranged on the discharge port 22. The first valve block 11 and the second valve block 12 are rotationally offset, and the first pressure taking pipe 7 is simultaneously connected to the first pressure taker 5 and the first conduit 9. The discharge port 22 is simultaneously connected to the second pressure taker 6 and the second conduit 10. Specifically, the discharge port 22 is arranged on the opposite side of the second interface 19, and forms a cross-shaped arrangement with the second pressure taker 6, the second pressure taking pipe 8 and the second interface 19. The sealing member 23 is preferably a screw member, which is convenient to disassemble and assemble. When the measuring device is normally used for measurement, the sealing member 23 keeps the discharge port 22 sealed. The end of the second valve block 12 away from the first valve block 11 is provided with a sliding block 24, and the inner wall of the valve body 3 is provided with an arc-shaped groove 25 matched with the sliding block 24. The arc-shaped groove 25 is arranged in the upper half of the valve body 3, and the arc is preferably 180°. In the first position, the sliding block 24 is at the highest position in the active range, and corresponds to the middle position of the arc-shaped groove 25, thereby limiting the second valve block 12 to rotate only 90° clockwise or 90° counterclockwise from the first position, i.e. to meet the switching of the second valve block 12 from the first position to the second position or the third position. The end of the first valve block 11 away from the operating handle 13 is provided with a torsion groove 26, and the second valve block 12 is coaxially provided with a mandrel 27, which is embedded in the torsion groove 26 and connected to each other by a coil spring 28. When the first valve block 11 and the second valve block 12 can freely rotate, the coil spring 28 makes the first valve block 11 and the second valve block 12 rotate synchronously. After the second valve block 12 rotates 90° clockwise or 90° counterclockwise from the first position, the sliding block 24 on the second valve block 12 is limited by the arc-shaped groove 25. Therefore, under the continuous rotation of the first valve block 11, the first valve block 11 can rotate relative to the second valve block 12 against the elastic force of the coil spring 28. Thus, when the second valve block 12 rotates to the third position, the continuous rotation of the first valve block 11 in the same direction can switch the first valve block 11 to make the three-way pipe on it simultaneously connect the first pressure taker 5, the first pressure taking pipe 7 and the first conduit 9. At this time, the three-way pipe on the second valve block 12 simultaneously connects the second pressure taker 6 and the second conduit 10 to the discharge port 22, thereby forming the fourth position of the first valve block 11. Figure 10 In this position, the second pressure taking pipe 8 is closed, the first pressure taking pipe 7 guides the fluid to be divided into the first pressure taker 5 and the first conduit 9. The fluid entering the first pressure taker 5 is guided to the discharge port 22 through the second conduit 10 and the three-way pipe of the second valve block 12. The fluid entering the first conduit 9 is also guided to the discharge port 22 through the second pressure taker 6 and the three-way pipe of the second valve block 12. Thus, the discharge port 22 can discharge the impurities and precipitates accumulated in the first pressure taker 5 and the second pressure taker 6, and smoothly realize the cleaning effect.
[0048] The above first position, second position, third position and fourth position are matched with the limiting of the four rotation positions of the operating handle 13.
[0049] In yet another embodiment of the present application, the instrument head 2 is connected with a temperature sensor 30 through a hose 29, which is detachably arranged at the end of the straight pipe 1. Specifically, the temperature sensor 30 detects the temperature of the fluid at the outlet end of the straight pipe 1, so as to assist the program calculation of the flow rate in combination with the collected differential pressure and other data. According to the principles of fluid mechanics and thermodynamics, it is more optimal to measure the temperature at the outlet end of the straight pipe 1, and the specific principles are known in the art and will not be described herein.
[0050] As a preferred technical solution of the present embodiment, the straight pipe 1 is provided with flanges 31 at both ends, and the flanges 31 are provided with connecting heads 32 that are screwed with the temperature sensor 30. The flanges 31 are radially provided with perforations 33 that are in communication with the connecting heads 32 and match the detection end of the temperature sensor 30. The inner wall of the perforations 33 is provided with a plurality of one-way umbrella rings 34. Specifically, the detection end of the temperature sensor 30 is in the shape of a cylindrical needle. When the temperature sensor 30 is connected with the connecting head 32 on one of the flanges 31, the connecting head 32 on the other flange 31 is blocked by a screwing member. The temperature sensor 30 is kept installed at the outlet end of the straight pipe 1, that is, the reversing of the pressure differential collection is kept. The detection end of the temperature sensor 30 penetrates into the interior of the straight pipe 1 through the perforation 33. The one-way umbrella ring 34 is elastic and includes a plurality of blades arranged circumferentially. When not subjected to external force, the blades of the one-way umbrella ring 34 elastically approach each other to form a closed conical sleeve, and the conical tip is directed toward the interior of the straight pipe 1. The maximum expansion aperture of the one-way umbrella ring 34 is not less than the outer diameter of the detection end of the temperature sensor 30. In actual use, when the temperature sensor 30 is screwed on the connecting head 32, the needle-shaped detection end of the temperature sensor 30 can penetrate through the perforation 33 and, when passing through the one-way umbrella ring 34, the blades of the one-way umbrella ring 34 are expanded by extrusion, so that the temperature sensor 30 smoothly penetrates into the interior of the straight pipe 1. When the temperature sensor 30 is detached, the detection end of the temperature sensor 30 is separated from the one-way umbrella ring 34, and the blades of the one-way umbrella ring 34 are automatically elastically contracted to prevent leakage of the perforation 33. Subsequently, the connecting head 32 is connected with the screwing member to form a seal.
[0051] The foregoing merely describes some exemplary embodiments of the present application by way of illustration, and it is self-evident that those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various manners without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application. Therefore, the foregoing drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present application.
