Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of float liquid level switches, in particular to a side-mounted float liquid level switch with a DPDT output signal. Background Art

[0002] The side-mounted float level switch consists of a float assembly, a flange assembly, a switch assembly and other accessories. Its basic principle is: when the liquid level at the float switch position changes, the float floating on the liquid level or interface swings within a certain stroke, and the magnet at the end of the float assembly repels the magnet swing of the switch assembly, driving the micro switch to operate, thereby changing the state of the micro switch.

[0003] This type of side-mounted float level switch usually has a large hysteresis. For some occasions that require small hysteresis control, such as equipment with stirring, the level switch needs to be installed in the side outlet pipe, which may not work reliably. On the other hand, because its output contacts are usually SPDT single-pole double-throw, for some occasions that require redundant design, or when the liquid level alarm signal needs to be connected to different systems for processing, one product cannot meet the requirements and two products need to be installed, which increases the manufacturing cost and complexity of the equipment.

[0004] With the development of equipment intensification and miniaturization, the above-mentioned demand is becoming more and more prominent, and a side-mounted float liquid level switch with DPDT output signal is needed to solve this problem. Utility Model Content

The second cavity head is located on the self-inspection cavity tube, and a connecting flange is installed on the end of the self-inspection cavity tube away from the first cavity head.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution of the utility model, a limiting block is installed in the flange assembly, a support bar is installed in the flange assembly, a support shaft is installed on the support bar, and a retaining ring is installed on the support shaft.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution of the present utility model, screws are installed between the switch assembly and the flange assembly for installing the switch assembly in the cavity of the flange assembly.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution of the utility model, the installation position of the reed switch is 13 mm above and below the center of the reed switch mounting seat, and the left and right spacing is 8 mm.

[0012] As a preferred technical solution of the utility model, the reed switch mounting seat is made of PTFE polytetrafluoroethylene material, and the sealant is 704 soft silicone.

The end magnet of the float assembly on the float liquid level switch is a samarium cobalt magnet. The movable cavity of the magnet is processed into a cylindrical shape with a spherical bottom to ensure that it can move freely within a limited range, so as to increase the strength and range of action of the magnetic field. A limit block is spot-welded on the inner wall of the mounting cavity of the switch assembly for the float liquid level switch to limit the switch assembly to prevent it from affecting the reliability and consistency of the action after rotating in the inner cavity. With the self-checking handle, it is convenient for daily maintenance and repair of the switch. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
