Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of reaction kettles, and particularly relates to an on-line vacuum sampling device for a reaction kettle. Background Art
[0002] In industries such as chemical engineering, pharmaceuticals, and food, reaction kettles are used as reaction containers or devices. In order to detect the reaction degree in the reaction kettle and judge the reaction end point, sampling and analysis are required during the production process. There are generally two sampling methods. One is the traditional direct sampling from the sampling ports left at the upper or lower part of the reaction kettle, and the other is sampling using the vacuum principle. The existing vacuum sampling device (also called a vacuum sampler) of a reaction kettle has a relatively complex structure and a large processing difficulty; during sampling, after closing the vacuum, a sampling bottle is connected to a sampling sight glass and flows into the sampling bottle by gravity, which increases the connecting pipeline, has a complex design, and a high failure rate; moreover, it is difficult to measure the PH and / or conductivity of the sample during the sampling process. Content of the Utility Model
[0003] Therefore, the utility model provides an on-line vacuum sampling device for a reaction kettle to solve one or more of the technical problems such as the complex structure of the existing vacuum sampler, relatively more connecting pipelines, and inability to measure PH and / or conductivity online.
[0004] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:
[0005] An on-line vacuum sampling device for a reaction kettle includes a sampling pipe, a flow-through cell, a main cut-off valve, a sampling valve, a sampling sight glass, a vacuum valve, and a nitrogen valve. The upper end of the sampling pipe is connected to the lower end of the flow-through cell. An on-line PH meter and / or an on-line conductivity meter are connected to the side of the flow-through cell. The upper end of the flow-through cell is connected to the lower end of the main cut-off valve. The upper end of the main cut-off valve is connected to the lower end of the sampling sight glass. The vacuum valve and the nitrogen valve are respectively connected to the upper end of the sampling sight glass in a parallel manner. The sampling valve is connected to the pipeline between the main cut-off valve and the sampling sight glass.
[0006] Further, the on-line vacuum sampling device further includes a connecting flange, and the connecting flange is arranged on the periphery of the sampling pipe.
[0007] Further, the flow-through cell includes a cell body, and a communication cavity is arranged in the cell body. The cross-sectional area of the communication cavity is larger than the cross-sectional area of the sampling pipe.
[0008] Further, a temporary storage cavity is arranged inside the sampling sight glass. The lower port and the upper port of the temporary storage cavity are both in a flared shape and the large ends of the two flares face each other. A floating ball is arranged in the temporary storage cavity, and the diameter of the floating ball is adapted to the inner diameter of the temporary storage cavity.
[0009] Furthermore, the main cut-off valve, sampling valve, vacuum valve, and nitrogen valve are all automatic control valves.
[0010] The utility model has the following advantages:
[0011] A flow cell is configured, which can install an online pH meter and / or an online conductivity meter to enable online measurement; nitrogen is used to provide the power for the liquid to enter the sampling bottle instead of the existing gravity method, saving some complex pipelines; a sampling valve is used for sampling instead of the existing bypass method, reducing some pipelines and eliminating cleaning dead ends.

[0017] In the following text, only some exemplary embodiments are simply described. As those skilled in the art can recognize, the described embodiments can be modified in various different ways without departing from the spirit or scope of the present application. Therefore, the drawings and the description are considered to be exemplary in nature and not restrictive.
[0018] As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides an on-line vacuum sampling device for a reaction kettle, which includes a sampling pipe 2, a flow-through cell 3, a main cut-off valve 4, a sampling valve 5, a sampling sight glass 6, a vacuum valve 7 and a nitrogen valve 8. The upper end of the sampling pipe 2 is connected to the lower end of the flow-through cell 3. An on-line pH meter and / or an on-line conductivity meter are connected to the side of the flow-through cell 3. The upper end of the flow-through cell 3 is connected to the lower end of the main cut-off valve 4. The upper end of the main cut-off valve 4 is connected to the lower end of the sampling sight glass 6. The vacuum valve 7 and the nitrogen valve 8 are respectively connected to the upper end of the sampling sight glass 6 in a parallel manner. The sampling valve 5 is connected to the pipeline between the main cut-off valve 4 and the sampling sight glass 6.
[0019] It should be noted that the above "connection" is a broad connection, including direct connection, indirect connection, and connection and communication. In this embodiment, the sampling pipe 2 communicates with the flow-through cell 3, the flow-through cell 3 communicates with the main cut-off valve 4, the main cut-off valve 4 communicates with the sampling sight glass 6, the vacuum valve 7 and the nitrogen valve 8 respectively communicate with the sampling sight glass 6, and the sampling valve 5 communicates with the "pipeline between the main cut-off valve 4 and the sampling sight glass 6". The probe of the on-line pH meter and / or the on-line conductivity meter is located inside the flow-through cell 3, and the display part or the data transmission part is outside the flow-through cell 3. Among them, the data transmission part can be connected to the control end (referring to the controller or control circuit board of the reaction kettle) through a data line.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, a flow-through cell 3 is configured for the sampling device, which can install an on-line pH meter and / or an on-line conductivity meter to achieve on-line measurement. After the nitrogen valve 8 is opened, nitrogen presses the liquid buffered or temporarily stored in the sampling sight glass 6 into the sampling valve 5, and flows into the sampling bottle (or called sampling container) from the opened sampling valve 5. In this way, nitrogen is used to provide the power for the liquid to enter the sampling bottle, rather than the existing gravity-dependent method, saving some complex pipelines. The sampling valve 5 is used for sampling, rather than the existing bypass method, reducing some pipelines and also being able to eliminate the cleaning dead corners.
[0021] In this embodiment, the on-line vacuum sampling device further includes a connecting flange 1, and the connecting flange 1 is arranged on the periphery of the sampling pipe 2. The connecting flange 1 is used to connect with the flange of the sampling port of the reaction kettle, so that the sampling device can be fixed to the reaction kettle through the connecting flange 1. After installation, the lower end of the sampling pipe 2 should extend below the liquid level in the reaction kettle to ensure sampling, so the sampling pipe 2 has a certain length.
[0022] The flow cell 3 is a closed container for installing an on-line pH meter and / or an on-line conductivity meter. In this embodiment, the flow cell 3 includes a cell body provided with a communication cavity inside. The top of the cell body is provided with a liquid outlet for connecting to the main cut-off valve 4, the bottom of the cell body is provided with a liquid inlet for connecting to the sampling pipe 2, and an installation port for installing the on-line pH meter and / or the on-line conductivity meter is provided on the side of the cell body. The liquid outlet, the liquid inlet and the installation port are all communicated with the communication cavity. The flow area of the communication cavity is larger than that of the sampling pipe 2. Generally, the flow area of the communication cavity is the sum of the flow area of the sampling pipe 2 and the area of the probe of the on-line pH meter or the probe of the on-line conductivity meter, so as to prevent the probe in the communication cavity from obstructing the liquid flow.
[0023] In this embodiment, a temporary storage cavity is provided inside the sampling sight glass 6. The lower port and the upper port of the temporary storage cavity are both flared and the large ends of the two flares face each other. A floating ball is provided in the temporary storage cavity, and the diameter of the floating ball is adapted to the inner diameter of the temporary storage cavity. After evacuation, the liquid enters the temporary storage cavity from below, and the liquid drives the floating ball to move upward until the floating ball abuts against the upper flare. The floating ball cannot move upward continuously, and relies on the floating ball to block the upper flare to prevent the liquid from entering the upper evacuated pipeline. During sampling, nitrogen gas pushes the floating ball downward, and the floating ball pushes the liquid into the sampling valve 5 and then discharges it into the sampling bottle.
[0024] In this embodiment, the main cut-off valve 4, the sampling valve 5, the vacuum valve 7 and the nitrogen valve 8 are all automatic control valves. The main cut-off valve 4 is used to automatically connect or disconnect the sampling device from the reaction kettle. The sampling valve 5 is used to automatically sample the liquid into the sampling bottle. The vacuum valve 7 is used to automatically open and close the vacuum pipeline. The nitrogen valve 8 is used to automatically open and close the nitrogen pipeline or the cleaning water pipeline, with a high degree of automation.
[0025] The sampling principle is as follows:
[0026] The sampling device is installed on the top of the reaction kettle and is connected to the sampling port of the reaction kettle through the connecting flange 1. The sampling pipe 2 is inserted below the liquid level of the reaction kettle. During sampling, the vacuum valve 7 is opened and waited for a set time to make a certain vacuum degree reached inside the sampling sight glass 6. The main cut-off valve 4 is opened and waited for a set time to make a certain liquid level reached inside the sampling sight glass 6. During this process, the pH and / or conductivity of the material can be recorded by the on-line pH meter and / or the on-line conductivity meter inserted on the flow cell 3. The main cut-off valve 4 is closed, and the vacuum valve 7 is closed. The nitrogen valve 8 is opened, the sampling valve 5 is opened, and nitrogen gas pushes the liquid inside the sampling sight glass 6 through the sampling valve 5 into the sampling bottle. After sampling is completed, the sampling valve 5 is closed, the main cut-off valve 4 is opened to press the remaining liquid back into the reaction kettle. The main cut-off valve 4 is closed to complete one sampling.
