The hollow tube 62 is located at the center of the upper surface of the top plate 61. The inner wall of the hollow tube 62 is elastically connected to a slide rod 63 through a compression spring 65. The lower surface of the slide rod 63 is fixedly connected to a filter plate 64. The initial position of the filter plate 64 is inside the water tank 2 5.

When the upper surface of the limit block 25 is squeezed, the limit block 25 will move forward.

[0039] Working principle: When the device is used, first unlock the lock 7, then pull the pull rod 66 upward to pull the slide bar 63 and the filter plate 64 upward. When the slide bar 63 moves upward, it will squeeze the compression spring 65 to generate a reaction force, then rotate the top plate 61 to open it, and put the plastic whose density needs to be measured into the water tank 2 5, then rotate the top plate 61 in the opposite direction to close it, and lock the lock 7 to prevent the top plate 61 from loosening during use, then release the pull rod 66, the reaction force of the compression spring 65 will push the slide bar 63 and the filter plate 64 downward, the filter plate 64 moving downward will press the plastic floating on the water surface in the water tank 2 5 into the water, the water will pass through the through holes on the filter plate 64 and overflow from the water tank 2 5 into the water tank 1 4, the volume of the plastic can be intuitively understood, and then the density of the plastic can be calculated according to the weight displayed on the measuring instrument 1 and the scale displayed on the water tank 2 5.

[0040] When replacing water tank 2 5 and water tank 1 4 of different models, first press the shift block 22 downward to drive the positioning block 23 to move downward to squeeze the inclined surface of the limit block 25. When the inclined surface of the limit block 25 is squeezed, it will move forward, and the limit block 25 moving forward will be separated from the card block 24, releasing the limit on the card block 24, and then the card block 24 is taken out of the card slot 201, and the support plate 21, water tank 1 4 and water tank 2 5 can be disassembled from the measuring instrument 1, and then the required water tank 1 4 and water tank 2 5 are taken out and the card block is removed. 24 is aligned with the card slot 201 for insertion. During insertion, the card block 24 will squeeze the inclined surface of the limit block 25, and the limit block 25 will move forward to release the obstruction and squeeze the limit spring 26 to generate a reaction force. When the card block 24 and the card slot 201 are inserted, the card block 24 will release the squeezing of the limit block 25. At this time, the reaction force of the limit spring 26 will push the limit block 25 to move backward and insert the card block 24, thereby fixing the support plate 21 on the measuring instrument 1, and completing the replacement of water tank 1 4 and water tank 2 5.
