Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of fire fighting, in particular to a balanced foam proportion mixing device. Background Art

[0002] The foam used for fire extinguishing is made by mixing water and foaming agent in a certain proportion through a mixing device. After searching, the Chinese patent authorization number CN210250937U discloses a balanced foam proportion mixing device for fire fighting, which belongs to the technical field of mixing devices. When the water and foaming agent are mixed into a mixture and a notification is issued, the water control switch is turned off to prevent water from continuing to enter the interior of the mixing box, thereby facilitating the mixing of the foaming agent and water by the mixing device, and achieving the effect of preventing the mixed foam from being too thick or too thin. However, when the device is in use, when the foam in the mixing box is used up, it needs to be re-mixed before the foam can be continuously supplied, which results in the inability to continuously supply foam during use, thereby delaying the fire extinguishing time during fire fighting. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the utility model provides a balanced foam proportioning device, which solves the problem that when the prior art device is in use, the foam inside the mixing box needs to be remixed after being used up before the foam can be continuously supplied, resulting in an inability to continuously supply foam during use, which in turn delays the fire extinguishing time.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the utility model is implemented through the following technical solutions: a balanced foam proportion mixing device, comprising a device body, a mixing box, a storage tank, a scraper and a third control valve, a control panel is installed on one side of the outside of the device body, a pressure gauge is arranged on the other side of the device body, the pressure gauge is connected to the mixing box, the top of the mixing box is connected to the bottom of the foam agent tank and the bottom of the water tank respectively through two first control valves, the bottom of the foam agent tank and the top of the water tank are both provided with a water inlet, the bottom of the mixing box is connected to the storage tank through a second control valve, the bottom of one end of the storage tank is connected to one end of the pressure pump, and the other end of the pressure pump is connected to one end of the discharge pipe, and the device body and the mixing box can be partially made of transparent material to facilitate observation of the interior.

[0005] Preferably, a driving motor is installed at one end of the storage tank, and a turntable is mounted on the outside of the output end of the driving motor. One side of the turntable is welded to one end of the scraper. The driving motor can drive the turntable to rotate, and the rotation of the turntable can also drive the scraper to rotate. The rotation of the scraper can stir the foam inside the storage tank, thereby preventing the foam inside the storage tank from settling easily due to long-term standing and insufficient mixing.

[0006] Preferably, the scraper fits tightly against the inner wall of the storage tank, is arranged in a circular shape with equal spacing, and is connected to each other by a connecting ring. The scraper scrapes the inner wall of the storage tank, so that the foam inside the storage tank can be fully discharged to avoid hanging on the wall.

[0007] Preferably, one side of the mixing box is connected to the overflow box through a third control valve and a fourth control valve. The third control valve is arranged above the fourth control valve. When there is too much foaming agent inside the mixing box, it enters the overflow box through the third control valve, so that the foam inside the mixing box can be mixed in normal proportion.

[0008] Preferably, liquid level sensors are provided at the top and bottom of the mixing box, and the liquid level sensors are electrically connected to the control panel. Liquid level sensing can indicate whether there is liquid inside the mixing tank and the internal water level.

[0009] The utility model provides a balanced foam proportion mixing device, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0010] (1) A balanced foam proportioning device, when in use, opens the first control valve at the bottom of the foaming agent tank to allow the foaming agent to enter the mixing box, and then opens the first control valve at the bottom of the water tank to allow water to enter the mixing box to mix with the foaming agent. During mixing, the two control valves are closed, and the foam after mixing is discharged into the storage tank, and then the first control valve is opened to mix again in the mixing box. When the foam in the storage tank is used up, the second control valve is opened to allow the foam in the mixing box to be discharged into the storage tank. This allows the device to mix the foam while using it, thereby continuously supplying foam.

[0011] (2) In a balanced foam proportioning device, when too much foaming agent is discharged into the mixing box, the third control valve is opened to allow the excess foaming agent to enter the overflow box. After the excess foaming agent is discharged from the mixing box, the mixing box can be mixed normally. After the mixing in the mixing box is completed and discharged into the storage tank, the fourth control valve is opened to allow the excess foaming agent in the overflow box to return to the mixing box for water addition and mixing, thereby helping to avoid excessive foam in the mixing box with no excess capacity for water dilution.

[0012] This solves the problem that when the existing device is in use, the foam in the mixing box needs to be remixed before the foam can be continuously supplied, resulting in an inability to continuously supply foam during use, which in turn delays the fire extinguishing time.
