Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of glass tube rotor flowmeters, in particular to an integrally cast high-reliability glass tube rotor flowmeter. Background Art

[0002] The main measuring element of the glass tube rotor flowmeter is a vertically installed tapered glass tube with a small bottom and a large top and a float that can move up and down inside. When the fluid passes through the tapered glass tube from bottom to top, a pressure difference is generated between the top and bottom of the float, and the float rises under the action of this differential pressure. When the rising force, the buoyancy and viscous lift of the float are equal to the gravity of the float, the float is in a balanced position. Therefore, there is a certain proportional relationship between the flow rate of the fluid flowing through the flowmeter and the rising height of the float, that is, the flow area of ​​the flowmeter. The height of the float can be used as a flow measurement.

[0003] Usually, the glass tube rotor flowmeter is composed of supporting plates, bases, tightening devices, sealing gaskets, glass tubes and other parts, and the parts are fastened by screws to prevent leakage. However, if there are too many parts and sealing surfaces, a poor seal will easily cause leakage. If too much force is used during the tightening process, it is easy to cause problems such as bending and deformation of the supporting plate and screw thread slippage. It is particularly dangerous when measuring corrosive media in industrial sites. In order to ensure the overall strength, the parts are generally made of stainless steel, which has certain corrosion resistance. However, in strong acid and alkali environments, they will also be corroded, causing damage to the flowmeter. Therefore, an integrated casting high-reliability glass tube rotor flowmeter is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
