It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments can be arbitrarily combined with each other.

[0028] The present application provides a water swelling detection device, comprising a body, a supporting structure, a fixing structure and a rotating drive mechanism. A measuring cylinder containing chopped glass fiber precursors is placed on the supporting structure, and the measuring cylinder is fixed to the supporting structure by the fixing structure. The supporting structure is then driven to rotate by the rotating drive mechanism so that the axis of the measuring cylinder rotates in a vertical plane. After the measuring cylinder is left to stand for a certain period of time (e.g., ten minutes), the measuring cylinder data can be read. The detection device of the present application can be used to efficiently and accurately detect the water swelling properties of the chopped glass fiber precursors.

[0029] Some specific implementation modes described below are intended to facilitate those skilled in the art to understand the present embodiment, and the present embodiment is not limited to some specific implementation modes described below.

[0030] like Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, an exemplary embodiment of the present application provides a water swelling detection device, including a body 1, a supporting structure 2, a fixing structure 3 and a rotating drive mechanism 4; the supporting structure 2 is used to place a measuring cylinder 10; the fixing structure 3 is arranged on the supporting structure 2, and is used to fix the measuring cylinder 10 on the supporting structure 2; the rotating drive mechanism 4 is arranged on the body 1 and connected to the supporting structure 2, and is used to drive the supporting structure 2 to rotate so that the axis of the measuring cylinder 10 rotates in a vertical plane.

[0031] When testing the water swelling performance of the chopped glass fiber precursor, the chopped glass fiber precursor is weighed and poured into a measuring cylinder 10 filled with pure water, and the measuring cylinder stopper is covered; the measuring cylinder 10 is placed on the supporting structure 2, and the measuring cylinder 10 is fixed to the supporting structure 2 by the fixing structure 3, and then the supporting structure 2 is driven to rotate by the rotating driving mechanism 4, so that the axis of the measuring cylinder 10 rotates in a vertical plane; after the measuring cylinder 10 is left to stand for a certain period of time, the data of the measuring cylinder 10 can be read.

[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the support structure 2 includes a box body 21 , one side of the box body 21 is an open structure for placing or taking out the measuring cylinder 10 from the box body 21 .

[0033] In this embodiment, one side of the box body 21 is configured as an open structure, so that the measuring cylinder 10 can be placed in or taken out of the box body 21 more conveniently.

[0034] In one embodiment, the support structure 2 further comprises a limiting block 22 disposed at the first end 23 thereof, and a limiting groove 221 for accommodating the measuring cylinder 10 is disposed on the limiting block 22 .

[0035] In this embodiment, the measuring cylinder 10 is placed in the limiting groove 221, and the measuring cylinder 10 can be limited by the limiting groove 221 to limit the movement of the measuring cylinder 10. The height of the limiting block 22 can be 1-4 mm; for example, the height of the limiting block 22 is 3 mm.

[0036] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the rotary drive mechanism 4 comprises a pneumatic rotary cylinder.

[0037] In this embodiment, the rotary drive mechanism 4 can be a pneumatic rotary cylinder, which is a standard driving component and includes a cylinder body and a turntable. Exemplarily, the cylinder body of the pneumatic rotary cylinder is arranged on the machine body 1, and the turntable is fixedly connected to the box body 21 by fastening bolts 6.

[0039] In this embodiment, the elastic member abuts against the measuring cylinder stopper of the measuring cylinder 10, which can limit the measuring cylinder stopper to restrict the movement of the measuring cylinder 10 on the one hand, and pressurize the measuring cylinder stopper to prevent the measuring cylinder 10 from leaking during the rotation process.

[0043] In this embodiment, the lighting device 5 is arranged on the body 1, and can provide a light source for the measuring cylinder 10 when reading data from the measuring cylinder 10, so as to avoid inaccurate detection results caused by insufficient light. Exemplarily, the lighting device 5 can be arranged between the box body 21 and the body 1, and a through groove 211 is arranged on one side of the box body 21 close to the body 1, and the light source of the lighting device 5 can pass through the through groove 211 to illuminate the measuring cylinder 10 located in the box body 21. It can be understood that the box body 21 can also be made of a transparent material, and the lighting device 5 can directly illuminate the measuring cylinder 10 located in the box body 21 through the box body 21.

[0044] In one embodiment, the water swelling detection device further includes a control device (not shown in the figure), and the rotation drive mechanism 4 is electrically connected to the control device.

[0045] In this embodiment, the rotation of the rotary drive mechanism 4 is controlled by the control device, which can make the operation more convenient. For example, the rotary drive mechanism 4 is a pneumatic rotary cylinder, which is electrically connected to the control device, and the control device controls the opening and closing of the pneumatic rotary cylinder through the solenoid valve switch.

[0046] In one embodiment, the water swelling detection device further includes a counter, which is used to count the number of rotations of the measuring cylinder 10 , and the counter is electrically connected to the control device.

After the rest time and rotation number are set, the rest time and rotation number can be counted by a timer and a counter respectively; the detection device can also be provided with a reminder device, which can issue a sound prompt after reaching a predetermined rest time, so as to remind the operator to read the data of the measuring cylinder 10.

[0049] The working process of the water swelling detection device of the present application is as follows:

[0050] When testing the water swelling performance of the chopped glass fiber precursor, the chopped glass fiber precursor is weighed and poured into a measuring cylinder 10 filled with pure water, and the measuring cylinder stopper is covered; the measuring cylinder 10 is placed on the supporting structure 2, and the measuring cylinder 10 is fixed on the supporting structure 2 by the fixing structure 3; the touch switch of the display screen 11 is clicked, and the control device controls the pneumatic rotary cylinder through the solenoid valve switch, and the pneumatic rotary cylinder drives the supporting structure 2 to rotate 180°, so that the axis of the measuring cylinder 10 rotates in the vertical plane; after the rotation, the set time is maintained, and the pneumatic rotary cylinder drives the supporting structure 2 to rotate 180° in the opposite direction; after completing a reciprocating motion, the control device continues to control the solenoid valve switch to stop rotating after the specified number of flips, and when the liquid level in the measuring cylinder 10 reaches a horizontal position and stands for a predetermined time, the lighting device 5 illuminates the measuring cylinder 10, and data of the measuring cylinder 10 can be read at this time.
