Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of liquid level controllers, and specifically, to a novel liquid level controller. Background Art

[0002] In current industrial production, agricultural irrigation, and various fields of liquid storage and management, liquid level controllers are widely used. Traditional liquid level controllers have many inconveniences in terms of installation, disassembly, and compatibility with containers of different models. At the same time, challenges also exist in the accuracy and real-time nature of liquid level monitoring. Especially in situations where the liquid level needs to be frequently adjusted or when dealing with containers of different sizes, the limitations of traditional liquid level controllers are particularly obvious.

[0003] Specifically, traditional liquid level controllers often adopt a fixed installation method, making it difficult to quickly adapt to containers of different sizes, and the disassembly and assembly process is cumbersome, increasing maintenance costs and operation difficulties. In addition, traditional liquid level monitoring methods mostly rely on mechanical float balls or simple electronic sensors. These devices are prone to false alarms or missed alarms when the liquid level changes greatly or the liquid properties are complex, affecting production efficiency and safety. Therefore, in view of the above technical problems, a novel liquid level controller is proposed here. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a novel liquid level controller, which can not only achieve the purpose of quick disassembly and assembly, but also facilitate connection with target containers of various different model sizes, and can automatically monitor liquid level changes in real time and make corresponding adjustments.

[0005] The utility model is realized through the following technical solutions:

[0006] A novel liquid level controller, characterized by comprising:

[0007] A water tank and a target container, the water tank and the target container are placed independently on the ground;

[0008] A mounting seat, which is installed at the top edge of the target container, and a clamping mechanism is installed between the mounting seat and the target container;

[0009] A fixing plate, which is fixedly connected to the outside of the mounting seat. A limiting cylinder is fixedly connected to the outside of the fixing plate. A monitoring rod is slidably connected inside the limiting cylinder. A floating block is fixedly connected to the bottom of the monitoring rod. A through groove is formed on the outside of the monitoring rod. A liquid level monitoring mechanism is installed on the upper side of the fixing plate;

[0010] A self-priming pump, which is fixedly connected inside the water tank. A conduit is fixedly connected to the outside of the self-priming pump, and the end of the conduit passes through the upper surface of the fixing plate and extends into the bottom of the target container.

[0011] Preferably, the clamping mechanism includes a clamping plate, a spring, a sliding rod and a pulling plate. The spring is fixedly connected between the clamping plate and the mounting seat, and the clamping plate is in contact with the target container. The sliding rod is fixedly connected to the clamping plate and is slidably connected to the outside of the mounting seat. The pulling plate is fixedly connected to the sliding rod.

[0012] Preferably, the liquid level monitoring mechanism includes a vertical plate, a laser emitter and a signal receiver. The vertical plate is fixedly connected to both sides of the through groove. A laser emitter is fixedly connected to the outside of one group of vertical plates, and a signal receiver is fixedly connected to the outside of the other group of vertical plates. The positions of the laser emitter, the signal receiver and the through groove correspond to each other.

[0013] Preferably, a scale is fixedly connected to the outside of the monitoring rod.

[0014] Preferably, a positioning member is fixedly connected to the upper side of the mounting seat, and the conduit passes through the positioning member.

[0015] Preferably, an input pipe is fixedly connected to the upper side of the water tank.

[0016] The technical solution of the present utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0017] 1. For this new type of liquid level controller, the sliding rod is used to control the movement of the clamping plate and compress the spring. At this time, there will be a large space between the clamping plate and the inside of the mounting seat. At this time, it can be docked at the edge of the target container, and then the pulling plate is released. At this time, under the action of the spring, the clamping plate can firmly clamp the mounting seat and the target container. This can not only achieve the purpose of quick disassembly and assembly, but also facilitate connection with various target containers of different models and sizes.

[0018] 2. For this new type of liquid level controller, when the liquid level inside the target container changes, the floating block will float up and down with the liquid surface. When the through groove moves a large distance, the signal receiver will not receive the signal, thereby warning can be issued, enabling the staff to quickly operate the self-priming pump and pump out the liquid inside the target container or supplement the liquid inside the water tank into the target container according to the specific situation. In this way, the liquid level change can be monitored automatically in real time and corresponding adjustments can be made. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0027] Embodiment 1

[0028] Please refer to Figure 1-2 , a new type of liquid level controller proposed by the present utility model includes a water tank 1, a target container 2, a mounting seat 3, a fixed plate 8 and a self-priming pump 17. The water tank 1 and the target container 2 are placed independently on the ground. The mounting seat 3 is installed at the top edge of the target container 2, and a clamping mechanism is installed between the mounting seat 3 and the target container 2.

[0029] The clamping mechanism includes a clamping plate 4, a spring 5, a slide bar 6 and a pulling plate 7. The spring 5 is fixedly connected between the clamping plate 4 and the mounting seat 3, and the clamping plate 4 is in contact with the target container 2. The slide bar 6 is fixedly connected to the clamping plate 4, and the slide bar 6 is slidably connected to the outside of the mounting seat 3. The pulling plate 7 is fixedly connected to the slide bar 6.

[0030] The working principle of the new liquid level controller based on Embodiment 1 is that when installing this new liquid level controller, first, the pull plate 7 can be pulled to drive the sliding rod 6 to control the movement of the clamping plate 4 and compress the spring 5. At this time, there will be a large space between the clamping plate 4 and the inside of the mounting seat 3. At this time, it can be docked at the edge of the target container 2, and then the pull plate 7 is released. At this time, under the action of the spring 5, the clamping plate 4 can firmly clamp the mounting seat 3 and the target container 2. This can not only achieve the purpose of quick disassembly and assembly, but also facilitate connection with various target containers 2 of different models and sizes.

[0031] Embodiment 2

[0032] Please refer to Figure 1-6 , on the basis of Embodiment 1, the fixing plate 8 is fixedly connected to the outside of the mounting seat 3. The outside of the fixing plate 8 is fixedly connected with a limiting cylinder 9. A monitoring rod 10 is slidably connected inside the limiting cylinder 9. A floating block 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the monitoring rod 10. A through groove 12 is opened on the outside of the monitoring rod 10. A liquid level monitoring mechanism is installed on the upper side of the fixing plate 8;

[0033] The self-priming pump 17 is fixedly connected to the inside of the water tank 1. A conduit 18 is fixedly connected to the outside of the self-priming pump 17, and the end of the conduit 18 passes through the upper surface of the fixing plate 8 and extends into the bottom of the target container 2.

[0034] The liquid level monitoring mechanism includes a vertical plate 13, a laser emitter 14 and a signal receiver 15. The vertical plate 13 is fixedly connected to both sides of the through groove 12. A laser emitter 14 is fixedly connected to the outside of a group of vertical plates 13, and a signal receiver 15 is fixedly connected to the outside of the other group of vertical plates 13. The positions of the laser emitter 14, the signal receiver 15 and the through groove 12 correspond to each other.

[0035] A scale 16 is fixedly connected to the outside of the monitoring rod 10. The specific degree of the liquid level rising or falling can be observed through the scale 16, which is convenient for adding or extracting liquid.

[0036] A positioning member 19 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the mounting seat 3, and the conduit 18 passes through the positioning member 19. The positioning member 19 can play a role in positioning and guiding the conduit 18.

[0037] An input pipe 20 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the water tank 1. Through the input pipe 20, it is convenient to add water into the water tank 1.

[0038] In this embodiment, after connecting this new type of liquid level controller to the target container 2, when the floating block 11 contacts the liquid level in the target container 2, it can be suspended to the liquid level by the buoyancy force, and the laser transmitter 14 is operated to make the signal receiver 15 receive the laser signal. When the liquid level inside the target container 2 changes, the floating block 11 will float up and down following the liquid level. When the liquid level changes greatly, the through groove 12 will completely move above or below the laser transmitter 14 and the signal receiver 15, so that the signal receiver 15 cannot receive the signal emitted by the laser transmitter 14, thereby a warning can be issued to make the staff quickly operate the self-priming pump 17 to pump out the liquid inside the target container 2 according to the specific situation, or supplement the liquid in the water tank 1 into the target container 2 to make the through groove 12 return to the position where the signal receiver 15 can receive the laser signal. In this way, the liquid level change can be monitored automatically in real time and corresponding adjustments can be made.

[0039] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those of ordinary skill in the art can understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
