Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of pipeline systems, and in particular to a fluid flow observation mechanism. Background Art
[0002] For pipes such as water pipes used to transport fluids, in order to observe the circulation and flow conditions in the pipes, an observation mechanism with a transparent observation window is set between the pipes to facilitate observation of the flow data of the fluid.
[0003] When some observation mechanisms are used for a long time, dirt and other substances in the fluid will adhere to the observation window, causing the observation window to become blurred, making it difficult for staff to observe through the observation window whether there is water flow in the pipe or whether the water flow is normal. Summary of the invention
[0004] In order to improve the above-mentioned problems, the present application provides a fluid flow observation mechanism.
[0005] The present application provides a fluid flow observation mechanism that adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A fluid flow observation mechanism, applied to fluid transportation in a pipeline, comprises an observation piece, a pipe joint, a transparent piece and an observation lamp; an observation cavity is provided in the observation piece; the observation piece has two cavity openings, both of which are provided with the pipe joints, and the pipe joints are used to connect with the pipeline for conveying fluid; the transparent piece is embedded in the observation piece, and the fluid flow in the observation cavity is observed by the transparent piece; the observation lamp is installed on the observation piece and is located in the observation cavity.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the two pipes are respectively connected to the cavity openings of the observation chamber through pipe joints, so that when the fluid in one pipe flows, it will pass through the observation piece and enter the other pipe. The transparent piece can be used to observe the flow of the fluid in the observation chamber. When dirt adheres to the transparent piece, making it difficult to observe clearly, the observation lamp is used to provide light that penetrates the dirt, so that the observation effect is clearer and obvious.
[0008] Optionally, at least one transparent member is provided.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, when the number of transparent parts is more than one, the multiple transparent parts can observe the fluid from different angles to further ensure the accuracy of the observation.
[0010] Optionally, the cross-section of the transparent member is arc-shaped.
[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the arc-shaped cross-section of the transparent member enables the transparent member to have a magnifying effect, which can provide a magnified observation of the water flow in the observation cavity, making the observation effect clearer.
[0012] Optionally, the observation direction of the transparent member is perpendicular to the flow direction of the fluid in the pipeline.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the observation direction and the fluid flow direction are perpendicular to each other, so that the transparent component will not block the flow path of the fluid, thereby ensuring smooth flow of the fluid.
[0014] Optionally, the transparent member has a circular structure.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the circular structure can reduce the edges and corners, making it easier to avoid damage to the metal pipe caused by impact during use, and also avoiding safety problems caused by users touching the edges and corners.
[0016] Optionally, the observation piece is further provided with a protective piece; the protective piece is located outside the observation cavity and wraps around the outside of the transparent piece.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, when the observation mechanism falls or is hit, the protective member contacts the impact point first, thereby providing protection for the transparent member and preventing the transparent member from being damaged by the impact, which would affect subsequent use.
[0018] Optionally, a limiting portion is provided on the protective member; the limiting portion abuts against the transparent member.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, when the water pressure in the observation chamber is too high, the transparent part will be pushed outward from the protective part by the water pressure. Therefore, the limiting part is used to provide support and limiting effects to prevent the transparent part from separating from the observation part and the protective part.
[0020] Optionally, a water outlet cover is also included; the water outlet cover is located in the observation cavity and is movably connected to the pipe mouth of any one of the pipes.
[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, after the water outlet cover is movably connected to the pipeline, when the water outlet cover is subjected to sufficient pressure from the fluid, the fluid will flush the water outlet cover open and enter the observation chamber. If the pressure is low or no fluid passes through, the water outlet cover is in a closed state. Therefore, the water outlet cover can be used to more clearly judge whether the fluid is flowing.
[0022] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0023] 1. The two pipes are connected to the cavity of the observation cavity through pipe joints, so that when the fluid in one pipe flows, it will pass through the observation piece and enter the other pipe. The transparent piece can be used to observe the flow of the fluid in the observation cavity. When there is dirt attached to the transparent piece, making it difficult to observe clearly, the observation lamp is used to provide light that penetrates the dirt, making the observation effect clearer and more obvious;
[0024] 2. When the observation mechanism falls or is hit, the protective part contacts the impact point first, thereby protecting the transparent part and preventing the transparent part from being damaged by the impact, which would affect the subsequent use;
[0025] 3. When the water pressure in the observation chamber is too high, the transparent part will be pushed outward by the water pressure of the protective part. Therefore, the limiting part is used to provide support and limit to prevent the transparent part from separating from the observation part and the protective part.
[0026] 4. After the water outlet cover is movably connected to the pipeline, when the water outlet cover is subjected to sufficient pressure from the fluid, the fluid will push the water outlet cover open and enter the observation chamber. If the pressure is low or no fluid passes through, the water outlet cover is in a closed state. Therefore, the water outlet cover can be used to more clearly judge whether the fluid is flowing.

[0037] The following is combined with Figure 1 -Attached Figure 4 , further details of this application are given.
[0038] The embodiment of the present application discloses a fluid flow observation mechanism.
[0039] A fluid flow observation mechanism, reference Figure 1 As shown, it is mainly used in the fluid transportation process in the pipeline 9. The fluid can mainly be water, oil, chemical liquid, etc., among which water includes condensed water, cooling water, hot water, etc. The fluid of this application takes water as an example.
[0040] The observation mechanism mainly includes an observation piece 1, a pipe joint 2, a transparent piece 3 and an observation lamp 4; the observation piece 1 can be an observation tube made of metal, an observation cavity 11 is opened in the observation piece 1, and the observation cavity 11 is a transfer station for water circulation. Two cavity openings are opened on both sides of the observation piece 1, and pipe joints 2 are provided at the two cavity openings. The pipe joints 2 are connected to the water conveying pipe 9, so that the fluid in the pipe 9 can enter the observation cavity 11 through the cavity opening, and then flow from the observation cavity 11 to another pipe 9, so that the water will not be affected by the observation mechanism during transportation.
[0041] The transparent member 3 is embedded in the observation member 1 . The transparent member 3 can be made of transparent materials such as transparent glass and transparent plastic. The staff or user uses the transparent member 3 to observe the water flow in the observation cavity 11 .
[0042] The observation lamp 4 is installed on the observation member 1 and is located in the observation cavity 11. The observation lamp 4 can be mainly installed on the inner wall surface of the observation cavity 11. The observation lamp 4 can emit a certain lumen of light so that the water flow in the observation cavity 11 can be clearly illuminated.
[0043] Among them, a dust cover (not shown in the figure) is provided on one side of the transparent member 3 outside the observation cavity 11. When the dust cover is not needed, the transparent member 3 can be covered to reduce the transparent member 3 being covered by external dust and affecting the clarity of observation.
[0044] Among them, a sealing part (not shown in the figure) is provided at the embedding point between the transparent part 3 and the observation part 1. The sealing part can adopt a sealing ring or a sealing ring. The sealing part is used to ensure that the water in the observation cavity 11 will not flow out from the embedding point between the transparent part 3 and the observation part 1, thereby improving the stability of the water flow.
[0045] Specifically, the two pipes 9 are respectively connected to the cavity openings of the observation chamber 11 through the pipe joints 2, so that when the water in one pipe 9 flows, it will enter the other pipe 9 through the observation piece 1, and the transparent piece 3 can be used to observe the fluid flow in the observation chamber 11, and the observation lamp 4 is used to provide light to make the observation effect clearer and obvious, avoiding the inability to accurately observe the water flow conditions in insufficient light. Even if there is dirt attached to the transparent piece 3, the penetrability of light can be used to make the observation effect clearer.
[0046] Furthermore, at least one transparent member 3 is provided, that is, one transparent member 3 can be provided to observe the internal situation of the observation chamber 11, but if there is a line of sight obstruction, such as being blocked by a wall, it is difficult to fully observe. Therefore, more than one transparent member 3 can be provided, and multiple transparent members 3 can observe the fluid from different angles to further ensure the accuracy of the observation. The present application takes two transparent members 3 as an example, which are respectively located on the front and rear sides of the observation member 1 as shown in the figure, and the rear side is blocked and cannot be fully displayed.
[0047] Further, refer to Figure 2 As shown, the cross section of the transparent member 3 is arc-shaped. The arc-shaped cross section of the transparent member 3 serves to provide a magnifying effect for the transparent member 3, thereby providing a magnified view of the water flow in the observation chamber 11 and making the observation effect clearer.
[0048] Furthermore, the observation direction of the transparent part 3 is perpendicular to the flow direction of the fluid in the pipe 9, that is, the extension line of the observation direction of the transparent part 3 is perpendicular to the water flow direction in the pipe 9. The main function is to ensure that the transparent part 3 will not block the flow path of the fluid to ensure smooth flow of the fluid.
[0049] Furthermore, the transparent part 3 is of a circular structure, which can reduce the edges and corners, making it easier to hit the metal pipe 9 during use to cause damage, and also avoiding safety problems caused by the user touching the edges and corners, thereby ensuring safety and practicality.
[0050] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1 As shown, the observation member 1 is also provided with a protective member 5, which is located outside the observation cavity 11 and wraps the outside of the transparent member 3. The protective member 5 can be a protective ring, which wraps the outside of the transparent member 3 and forms a raised outer ring. The distance between the end of the protective member 5 away from the transparent member 3 and the transparent member 3 is 0.5cm-1.5cm. It is mainly used for when the observation mechanism falls or is hit, the protective member 5 first contacts the impact point, thereby providing protection for the transparent member 3, avoiding the transparent member 3 from being damaged by the impact and affecting subsequent use.
[0051] Furthermore, a limiting portion 51 is provided on the protective member 5, and the limiting portion 51 abuts against the transparent member 3. The limiting portion 51 can adopt a limiting protrusion, and the limiting protrusion is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the protective member 5 and abuts against the transparent member 3, so that the transparent member 3 is limited between the observation member 1 and the protective member 5, which can be used to provide a certain support.
[0052] If the water pressure in the observation chamber 11 is too high, the transparent part 3 will be pushed outward from the protective part 5 by the water pressure. Therefore, the limiting part 51 is used to provide support and limiting effects to prevent the transparent part 3 from separating from the observation part 1 and the protective part 5.
[0053] The limiting portion 51 may be in a trapezoidal shape. The trapezoidal structure can more stably fit the outer surface of the transparent member 3 . A circular or T-shaped shape is also suitable.
[0054] In some embodiments, reference Figure 3 As shown, a water outlet cover 6 is also included; the water outlet cover 6 is located in the observation cavity 11 and is movably connected to the corresponding pipe 9 at any pipe joint 2. The water outlet cover 6 can adopt a cover structure made of metal or plastic material. When the pipe 9 extends into the observation cavity 11 and is connected through the pipe joint 2, the water outlet cover 6 can be installed at the pipe mouth of the pipe 9, that is, the water outlet, to cover the water outlet. At the same time, the movable connection method can be hinged, and the water outlet cover 6 can be opened along the hinge point by hinge to connect the water outlet or close the water outlet.
[0055] Specifically, after the water outlet cover 6 is movably connected to the pipeline 9, when the water outlet cover 6 is subjected to sufficient pressure from the fluid, the fluid will push the water outlet cover 6 open and enter the observation chamber 11. If the pressure is low or no fluid passes through, the water outlet cover 6 is in a closed state. Therefore, the water outlet cover 6 can be used to more clearly judge whether the fluid is flowing.
[0056] Furthermore, a reflective layer is provided on the surface of the water outlet cover 6. When the light of the observation lamp 4 is irradiated to the reflective layer, the closing or opening of the water outlet of the water outlet cover 6 can be observed more clearly.
[0057] Further, refer to Figure 4 As shown, the water outlet cover 6 is provided with a wiping member 7 and a rebound member 8, and the wiping member 7 is in contact with the transparent member 3, wherein the wiping member 7 includes a wiping brush and a connecting rod or a connecting frame, the wiping brush is composed of a plastic brush body and a plurality of plastic bristles, and the connecting rod or the connecting frame can adopt a rod-shaped structure or a frame structure made of plastic material. The present application takes the connecting rod as an example, and the wiping brush is connected to the water outlet cover 6 by the connecting rod, and the wiping brush is in contact with one side of the transparent member 3 located in the observation chamber 11, so that the wiping brush can wipe the surface of the transparent member 3 in the observation chamber 11 to wipe off dirt.
[0058] The rebound member 8 can be made of elastic rebound rubber, and one end of the rebound member 8 is connected to the wiper 7, and the other end is connected to the pipe joint 2 or the pipe 9, so that the rebound member 8 provides a rebound pulling force to the water outlet cover 6, and the rebound pulling force is greater than the friction force generated by the contact between the wiper 7 and the transparent member 3, ensuring that the water outlet cover 6 can stably return to the water outlet of the pipe 9.
[0059] The rebound member 8 may also be a torsion spring, which is installed at the movable connection point between the water outlet cover 6 and the pipeline 9, and also provides a rebound and reset effect. The figure takes the torsion spring as an example.
[0060] Specifically, when the water outlet cover 6 is opened along the movable connection point by the action of water pressure, the wiping member 7 is driven to move synchronously along the surface of the transparent member 3, thereby wiping off the dirt on the surface of the transparent member 3, and then the water flow is turned off. After the water flow is closed, the water outlet cover 6 is closed to the pipe 9 by the action of the rebound member 8, and at the same time drives the wiping member 7 to be pulled back, thereby repeating the cleaning of the dirt. The dirt on the surface of the transparent member 3 can be removed repeatedly in sequence to ensure the cleanliness of the transparent member 3.
[0061] The embodiments of this specific implementation are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present application. The same components are represented by the same figure marks. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
