[0025] The structure and connection method of each component will be described in detail below.

[0026] In the present invention, the sealing cover 7 and the upper cover 10, and the sealing cover 7 and the lower cover 14 are all detachably connected. The sealing cover 7, the upper cover 10 and the lower cover 14 together constitute a main structure with a hollow inner cavity, which serves as the outer shell of the device of the present invention.

[0027] As a preferred embodiment of the utility model, an O-ring is provided at the connection between the sealing cover 7 and the upper cover 10, and an O-ring is provided at the connection between the sealing cover 7 and the lower cover 14, so as to play a role of sealing connection and ensure the sealing of the hollow inner cavity. A plurality of symmetrically distributed supporting feet 15 are provided at the bottom of the lower cover 14, which can raise the main structure and facilitate the transfer of the device and the up and down movement of the piston 1.

[0028] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the upper side of the sealing cover 7 (eg Figure 1 A sapphire glass 4 is grooved and installed at the upper left end of the hollow cavity. The sapphire glass 4 serves as an observation window, which can visually monitor the state of the displaced gas and liquid in the hollow cavity.

[0029] In the utility model, a piston 1 is provided in the hollow inner cavity, and the piston 1 can slide up and down along the inner wall of the sealing cover 7 in a sealed manner, and the pressure of the injected gas and liquid can be controlled. The piston 1 divides the hollow inner cavity into an upper cavity and a lower cavity that are not connected to each other, and the position of the piston can be determined according to the height of the piston.

[0030] As a preferred embodiment of the utility model, the piston 1 is coaxially arranged with the main structure, that is, the piston 1 and the cavity 7 are on the same central axis. The piston 1 includes an upper rod, a disc body and a lower rod which are connected in sequence and coaxially arranged, and the cross-sections of the upper rod and the lower rod are smaller than the cross-section of the disc body. The upper rod is sealingly and slidably connected to the upper cover 10, the lower rod is sealingly and slidably connected to the lower cover 14, and the disc body is sealingly and slidably connected to the sealing cover 7. The disc body is sealingly and slidably connected to the inner wall of the sealing cover 7 through the first sealing ring 5 and the guide ring 6 which are sleeved on the outer periphery. In other words, the structure of the piston 1 consists of a short and thick middle cylinder and two identical slender upper and lower cylinders. The three cylinders are on the same central axis, and the first sealing ring 5 and the guide ring 6 are located on the middle cylinder.

[0031] In actual use, the surface of the first sealing ring 5 may be coated with a coating with a low friction coefficient, such as a Teflon coating, so as to reduce the friction between the piston 1 and the container.

[0032] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the sealing cover 7, the upper cover 10, the lower cover 14 and the piston 1 can all be made of corrosion-resistant and high-pressure-resistant metal materials, such as 316L stainless steel. This material can withstand high pressure and prevent the intermediate container from being corroded by the injected gas and liquid.

[0033] In the utility model, the top and bottom of the piston 1 extend out of the upper cover 10 and the lower cover 14 respectively, and are sealed and slidably connected with the upper cover 10 and the lower cover 14.

[0035] In the utility model, a temperature sensor 2 and a pressure sensor 9 are fixed on the upper cover 10, and the probes of the temperature sensor 2 and the pressure sensor 9 are located in the hollow inner cavity so as to measure the corresponding temperature and pressure indicators in the hollow inner cavity. An injection channel 3 and an output channel 11 are also provided on the upper cover 10. One end of the injection channel 3 and the output channel 11 are both connected to the hollow inner cavity, and the other end is connected to the outside. A driving pressure input channel 8 is provided on the lower cover 14. One end of the driving pressure input channel 8 is connected to the hollow inner cavity, and the other end is connected to the outside.

[0036] Based on the above piston-type visual high-pressure resistant intermediate container, the utility model also provides a method of use, which is specifically as follows:

[0037] Open the injection channel 3, close the output channel 11, open the driving pressure input channel 8, and inject the displacement gas and liquid into the cavity through the injection channel 3. After the injection is completed, close the injection channel 3 and open the output channel 11. The driving pressure input channel 8 is connected to the plunger pump, and the displacement gas and liquid are injected from the output channel 11 into the experimental reactor by injecting the driving liquid. In the above process, the relevant accurate parameters are obtained through the temperature sensor and the pressure sensor, and the intermediate container is rinsed with clean water after the experiment.

[0038] The above-described embodiment is only a preferred solution of the present invention, but it is not intended to limit the present invention. Ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, any technical solution obtained by equivalent replacement or equivalent transformation falls within the protection scope of the present invention.
