Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described can be combined in any one or more embodiments or examples in a suitable manner.
[0037] In the production process of nylon 6 chips, polymerization reaction is one of the key steps. This process is usually carried out under high temperature and high pressure environment, and requires strict control of the liquid level of the reaction materials to ensure product quality and production safety. Among them, the liquid level measurement and control of the polymerization tube is a key process to ensure product quality.
[0038] Traditional liquid level measurement methods such as float type and capacitance type are prone to problems such as large measurement errors, high maintenance costs, and short life under complex working conditions such as high temperature, high pressure, corrosion, or foam generation.
[0039] In the related art, the polymer tube uses a float level gauge to measure the liquid level change, wherein the float level gauge uses the Archimedes buoyancy principle to measure the liquid level change, and is mainly composed of a measurement conversion mechanism, a float, etc., and the level gauge is installed in the polymer tube and is in direct contact with the material. Figure 2The float level gauge includes a float 400, a suspension rod 410 and a sleeve 420. The float 400 and the sleeve 420 extend into the interior of the polymerization tube 100 through the suspension rod 410 and are in direct contact with the liquid. The height of the liquid surface is measured according to the position of the float 400 floating on the liquid surface.
[0040] In this regard, the disadvantages found in the use are:
[0041] 1. The level gauge cannot be easily separated from the connection with the polymer tube 100, which makes maintenance difficult. Each time maintenance is performed, the polymer tube 100 must be depressurized and cooled before it can be removed, which greatly affects product quality.
[0042] 2. The measurement accuracy is low, which is not conducive to the stable control of the liquid level of the polymerization tube 100.
[0043] 3. Since the material viscosity of the polymer tube 100 is relatively high, the float 400 and the protective sleeve 420 are often clogged by the material, causing the float 400 to stick, resulting in failure of liquid level measurement.
[0044] Especially for large containers such as polymerization tubes, accurate and reliable liquid level measurement is particularly important, but the installation position and structural design of the liquid level meter in the existing technology often cannot adapt well to the special conditions in the polymerization reaction process, affecting the measurement accuracy and the maintenance convenience of the equipment.
[0045] For this reason, Figure 1As shown in the figure, the polymer tube liquid level measurement structure for nylon 6 slice production proposed by the utility model includes a polymer tube 100, a radar level gauge 200 and a manual stop valve, wherein the radar level gauge 200 is arranged on the upper wall of the polymer tube 100 and communicated with the inside of the polymer tube 100, and the detection part of the radar level gauge 200 is arranged downward and used to detect the liquid level height in the polymer tube 100. In addition, the manual stop valve is installed on the upper wall of the polymer tube 100 and located outside the polymer tube 100, and the manual stop valve is arranged between the polymer tube 100 and the radar level gauge 200, and is suitable for driving the radar level gauge 200 to separate from the polymer tube 100. It should be noted that the use of a non-contact radar level gauge 200 directly facing the internal liquid surface of the polymer tube 100 can effectively reduce interference factors such as gas foam and solid particle suspension in the measurement process, and realize high-precision measurement of the polymer material liquid level in the production of nylon 6 slices, which is of great significance for controlling reaction conditions and ensuring product quality. In addition, the manual stop valve design allows the radar level meter 200 to be quickly isolated from the internal space of the polymer tube 100 when necessary, which simplifies the maintenance, calibration or troubleshooting process of the level meter without stopping the operation of the entire production line, greatly improving production continuity and maintenance efficiency, and reducing downtime losses caused by equipment maintenance. The manual stop valve adopts a manual direct control method, which increases the controllability of the system in an emergency, can quickly isolate possible leakage risks, prevent chemical substances from leaking, and ensure the safety of production site personnel and the cleanliness of the environment.
[0046] Optionally, the manual stop valve is a manual ball valve 300. It should be noted that the manual ball valve 300 is known for its durability, especially after the valve core and sealing ring such as wear-resistant alloy steel spraying are adopted, it can effectively resist corrosion and wear, and ensure long-term reliable operation, which is particularly important for the chemical production environment of continuous operation. In addition, compared with the automatic control valve, the manual ball valve 300 has a simple structure, low initial investment and maintenance costs, and does not require complex control system support, which is suitable for production facilities of various sizes, especially in production links that are sensitive to cost control. In application, the manual ball valve 300 can realize the rapid opening and closing of the valve by rotating the handle, and the operation is simple and intuitive, does not require complex tools or skills, and is convenient for on-site personnel to operate and control. Specifically, the upper wall of the polymer tube 100 is provided with a mounting portion 110, the mounting portion 110 extends upward, and the upper end of the mounting portion 110 is connected to a mounting flange 111, and the manual stop valve and the radar level meter 200 are both installed on the mounting flange 111. Among them, through the standardized flange connection method, the sealing between the components can be more reliably guaranteed, preventing material leakage or external contaminants from entering during the production process, thereby maintaining production safety and product quality. In addition, the mounting portion 110 extends upward and connects to the mounting flange 111. Such a structural design strengthens the connection strength between the radar level meter 200 and the polymer tube 100, ensuring the stability and durability of the equipment during long-term operation, especially under high temperature and high pressure conditions, and reducing the risk of displacement or damage caused by vibration or external force. Furthermore, the upper end surface of the mounting flange 111 is arranged horizontally, and the detection end of the installed radar level meter 200 can be directly shot into the liquid surface in the polymer tube 100, thereby improving the accuracy of the detection.
[0047] Refer to Figure 1The radar level meter 200 is eccentrically arranged on the polymer tube 100, which can avoid the interference of strong convection or foam accumulation in the central area on the measurement signal, and improve the stability and accuracy of the measurement. In addition, the eccentric arrangement may reduce the risk of direct impact or contamination of the radar level meter 200 and extend its service life. Specifically, the minimum distance between the radar level meter 200 and the inner circumferential wall of the polymer tube 100 is A, and the diameter of the polymer tube 100 is B, which satisfies: B / 6≤A≤B / 4, ensuring that the radar wave can fully cover the liquid surface and avoid direct reflection, while maintaining a sufficient distance from the inner circumferential wall of the polymer tube 100 to reduce the risk of physical contact, balancing the measurement accuracy and installation space requirements, and further improving the reliability of the measurement and the durability of the equipment. In some embodiments, the minimum distance between the radar level meter 200 and the inner circumferential wall of the polymer tube 100 is greater than 200 mm. In addition, the radar level meter 200 includes an antenna 210, which extends downward into the polymer tube 100 by at least 10 mm, thereby reducing measurement interference caused by surface fluctuations or foam, increasing the penetration and reception quality of the measurement signal, and thus improving the sensitivity and accuracy of the liquid level measurement. At the same time, the deep arrangement of the antenna 210 helps to maintain stable measurement performance even when the material density or dielectric constant changes greatly.
[0048] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
