DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0026] Example 1

[0027] In this embodiment, if Figure 1-Figure 6 As shown, a polymer viscosity testing device includes a workbench 101, a mounting plate 102 is fixedly arranged on the upper surface of the workbench 101 by a plurality of bolts, a slide groove 103 is provided on one side of the mounting plate 102, a screw is rotatably connected inside the slide groove 103, one end of the screw 104 extends to the outside of the mounting plate 102 and is fixedly connected to a handle, which is convenient for rotating the screw, thereby adjusting the height of the testing mechanism 300, a slide plate 104 is threadedly connected to the outside of the screw, and the slide plate 104 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the slide groove 103, and also includes a heating mechanism 200 and a testing mechanism 300, the heating mechanism 200 is arranged on one side of the mounting plate 102 for heating and constant temperature operation, the testing mechanism 300 is arranged above the heating mechanism 200 for viscosity testing of the PPDO material, before the polymer viscosity testing device is used, the PPDO material is first dissolved in a liquid to form a PPDO sample solution to be tested, the slide plate 104 cooperates with the fastening tube clamp 107 to fix the position of the testing mechanism 300, and then the heater 202 is started, so that the device enters a ready-to-use state;

[0028] Among them Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 6As shown, the heating mechanism 200 includes a water bath 201 fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the workbench 101, and a water changing port is provided on one side of the water bath 202, so as to facilitate timely replacement and addition of water according to the water usage inside the water bath 202, thereby improving the working efficiency of the device. A heater 202 is fixedly provided on one side of the water bath 201, and the liquid inside the water bath 201 is heated to ensure the normal preheating and constant temperature measurement operation of the test mechanism 300. A motor 203 is installed at the lower end of the water bath 201. 03, the output end of the motor 203 extends to the inside of the water bath 201 and is fixedly connected with a cleaning brush 204. The water inside the water bath 201 will cause scale on the inner wall of the water bath 201 if it is heated for a long time. The cleaning brush 204 is convenient for quick cleaning and can reduce the waste of human resources. The cleaning brush 204 abuts against the inner wall of the water bath 201. An ultrasonic cleaner is connected to one side of the water bath 201, which is convenient for timely cleaning and maintenance of the components of the test mechanism 300 after the test is completed, so as not to affect the next use;

[0029] Among them Figure 2-Figure 5 As shown, the testing mechanism 300 includes a main pipe 301, and valves are provided at the tops of the main pipe 301, the branch pipe 305, and the side pipe 306. The lower end of the main pipe 301 is connected with a first liquid storage ball 302, a timing ball 303, a capillary tube, and a hanging liquid ball 304 in sequence from top to bottom. Through the capillary tube, the liquid will encounter resistance when it falls freely due to gravity. When the liquid flows in the pipeline, a part of work must be consumed to overcome the resistance. There is a formula relationship between the consumed energy and the pipeline size and time. Then, the viscosity of the polymer solution can be obtained according to the time and liquid volume, so as to understand the viscosity qualification of the polymer. One side of the main pipe 301 is provided with A branch pipe 305, the lower end of which is connected to the hanging liquid ball 304, a side pipe 306 is provided on one side of the branch pipe 305, the lower end of which is connected to a second liquid storage ball 307, the second liquid storage ball 307 is connected to the hanging liquid ball 304 through a pipeline, a certain volume of solution is injected into the hanging liquid ball 304 by the side pipe 306, and then the solution is absorbed by the main pipe 301 by the negative pressure structure, so that the liquid is sucked into the first liquid storage ball 302 through the capillary, and then the negative pressure is released to make the liquid flow downward naturally through the capillary under the action of gravity, and the viscosity of the material is measured according to the outflow speed of the PPDO solution in the capillary;

[0030] Among them Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, a support member 105 is symmetrically arranged at the lower end of the workbench 101, and the support member 105 can be set as a support rod or a roller to support the device and facilitate movement;

[0031] Among them Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, a timer 106 is provided on one side of the workbench 101. The timer 106 can accurately know the time between a specific volume of PPDO material solution passing through two liquid level sensors under a specific temperature condition, and then calculate according to the liquid level drop time of a solution with a known viscosity, so as to understand the viscosity of the polymer;

[0032] Among them Figure 1 As shown, one end of the slide plate 104 close to the test mechanism 300 is connected with a fastening pipe clamp 107, which is sleeved on the outside of the side pipe 306. The fastening pipe clamp 107 is fixedly connected to the side pipe 306 by a fastening bolt, which is convenient for fixing the position of the side pipe 306. Since the main pipe 301, the branch pipe 305, and the side pipe 306 are an integrated structure, the main pipe 301 and the branch pipe 305 can be fixed, which is convenient for subsequent cleaning and replacement operations.

[0033] Among them Figure 5 As shown, a first liquid level sensor 308 is installed below the first liquid storage ball 302, and a second liquid level sensor 309 is installed below the timing ball 303. The first liquid level sensor 308 and the second liquid level sensor 309 are both electrically connected to the timer 106. Under the action of gravity, the solution sample flows downward inside the first liquid storage ball 302. When the liquid level passes through the first liquid level sensor 308, the first liquid level sensor 308 transmits a signal to the timer 106, so that the timer 106 performs a timing operation. When the liquid level passes through the position of the second liquid level sensor 309, the second liquid level sensor 309 transmits a signal to the timer 106, so that the timer 106 stops the timing operation. After multiple tests, the viscosity value can be calculated according to the pipe diameter and time.

[0034] Example 2

[0035] The difference from Example 1 is that Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, a cover 205 is hinged on the top of the water bath 201, and the cover 205 is connected to the water bath 201 by a hinge. A sealing strip adapted to the water bath 201 is provided on one side of the cover 205, and the cover 205 can be rotatably placed on the top of the water bath 201, so that the interior of the water bath 201 remains closed to prevent dust from falling in, thereby improving the test effect.

[0036] When in use, first fix the position of the test mechanism 300 by tightening the pipe clamp 107, then rotate the screw so that the mechanism can smoothly enter the water bath 201, start the heater 202, and start the preheating operation. When the liquid in the water bath 201 reaches a certain temperature, it is kept at a constant temperature. A certain volume of solution is injected into the hanging liquid ball 304 by using the side pipe 306, and then the solution is absorbed by the main pipe 301 by using the negative pressure structure, so that the liquid is sucked into the first liquid storage ball 302 through the capillary, and then the negative pressure is released to allow the liquid to flow downward naturally through the capillary under the action of gravity. The viscosity of the polymer is measured according to the outflow speed of the solution in the capillary, and then it is determined whether the polymer meets the specifications.

[0037] The above is only a specific implementation of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art who is familiar with the present technical field can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in the present application, which should be included in the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
