Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of float liquid level switches, in particular to a multi-point output top-mounted float liquid level switch. Background Art
[0002] The float level switch is composed of a float, stainless steel cable, spring and switch assembly. The basic principle is: the float is partially or completely immersed in the liquid, and the change of liquid level or interface position causes the change of buoyancy of the float, thereby changing the magnitude of the force on the lower end of the spring, and the length of the spring changes accordingly, driving the push rod fixed at the free end of the spring to move up and down, and the magnet on the top of the push rod drives the magnet of the switch assembly to rotate, thereby driving the switch contacts to open and close.
[0003] The float level switch has a self-holding function: when the liquid level rises to the switch position, the switch operates and the contact state changes; the liquid level continues to rise and the switch state is maintained; when the liquid level drops to the switch position, the switch state is reset.
[0004] This type of float level switch usually controls 1~2 points, and the switch element usually adopts micro switch or three-magnetic switch. If DPDT double-pole double-throw output is required, the micro switch type uses one cam to drive two micro switches at the same time, while the three-magnetic switch type installs two switch components at the same position to achieve it.
[0005] When the number of control points exceeds 3, on the one hand, the internal installation space of the junction box is limited, and on the other hand, since the hysteresis of each point is relatively large, the spring travel may not be enough. A multi-point output top-mounted float level switch is needed to solve this problem. Utility Model Content
