Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of measurement and calibration, and particularly to a measurement and calibration system for a high-precision radar level gauge. Background Technique

[0002] A high-precision radar level gauge is an instrument that uses radar technology to determine the height or level of materials in a container by transmitting and receiving radio waves. The high-precision radar level gauge uses the microwave pulse principle, emits extremely short microwave pulses with very low energy through the antenna system, and receives the microwave signals reflected from the surface of the materials. The radar wave travels at the speed of light, and its travel time can be converted into a level signal by electronic components. This special time extension method can ensure stable and accurate measurement in a very short time.

[0003] However, in the existing measurement and calibration systems for high-precision radar level gauges, a single transmitter measurement component is mostly used. The accuracy of the measurement needs to be rechecked, and at the same time, multiple measurements are required for measurements at different distances, resulting in general measurement and calibration efficiency for high-precision radar level gauges. Content of the Utility Model

[0008] Preferably, the number of the square grids is five groups, and the distance between each square grid is two meters.

[0010] Preferably, the number of the signal transmitters is two groups, which are respectively arranged at the upper and lower ends of the mobile rack. The two groups of signal transmitters correspond to the middle positions of the two groups of square grid areas, which is convenient for simultaneously measuring two high-precision radar level gauges, ensuring the accuracy of measurement calibration, reducing the work of repeated calibration, and improving the efficiency of measurement calibration.

[0011] Preferably, sawtooth blocks are arranged inside the square grids. Through the arrangement of the sawtooth blocks, the signal can be enhanced and the interference signal can be suppressed to ensure the accuracy of measurement calibration.

[0012] Preferably, the size of the first reflector is the same as that inside the square grid, so that the first reflector can effectively block the square grid, which is convenient for the first reflector to avoid the reflection of microwave signals.

[0013] Preferably, the number of the first cylinders is two, which are respectively arranged on both sides of the mounting rack. Through the two first cylinders, the lifting of the first reflector is ensured to be stable, which is convenient for carrying out the work of measurement calibration.

[0014] Preferably, a stop block is arranged at the middle position on one side of the mounting rack. The movement of the first reflector is limited by the stop block to ensure that the area of the first reflector within the square grid is in a fixed position, which is convenient for use in calibration measurement.

[0015] The second aspect of the present utility model discloses a measurement calibration method for a high-precision radar level gauge, which is used to execute on the system described in the first aspect. The method includes Step 1 to Step 4;

[0016] Step 1, system initialization, including: installing the signal transmitter and the signal receiver at the specified positions on the mobile rack; starting the calibration system to ensure that the initial positions of all cylinders, reflectors, and square grids are in the standard state, and the system is in the standby mode;

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0029] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0030] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , the present utility model discloses a measurement and calibration system for a high-precision radar level gauge, which includes a mounting base 1, a moving frame 2, a signal transmitter 3, a signal receiver 4 and an adjusting baffle mechanism 5. The moving frame 2 is arranged on the top of the mounting base 1. The signal transmitter 3 is installed on one side of the moving frame 2, the signal receiver 4 is installed on the other side of the moving frame 2, and the adjusting baffle mechanism 5 is installed at one end of the mounting base 1.

[0031] The adjusting baffle mechanism 5 includes a mounting frame 501, support legs 502, a grid 503, a first cylinder 504, a first reflector 505, a second cylinder 506 and a second reflector 507. The mounting frame 501 is fixedly connected to one end of the mounting base 1. The support legs 502 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting frame 501. The grid 503 is installed inside the mounting frame 501. The first cylinder 504 is fixedly connected to the outside of the mounting frame 501. The first reflector 505 is arranged inside the mounting frame 501. The second cylinder 506 is installed above the first cylinder 504. The second reflector 507 is installed above the inside of the mounting frame 501. By using the first cylinder 504 to drive the first reflector 505 to move up and down, the space between the grids 503 is blocked, so as to calibrate and measure the high-precision radar level gauge, ensuring the accuracy of the measurement. The size of the first reflector 505 is the same as that inside the grid 503, so that the first reflector 505 can effectively block the grid 503, facilitating the comparison of the first reflector 505 to avoid the reflection of microwave signals. The number of the first cylinders 504 is two, which are respectively arranged on both sides of the mounting frame 501. By using two first cylinders 504, the lifting of the first reflector 505 is ensured to be stable, facilitating the work of measurement and calibration. A stop block 511 is arranged at the middle position on one side of the mounting frame 501. The movement of the first reflector 505 is limited by the stop block 511, ensuring that the area of the first reflector 505 within the grid 503 is a fixed position, facilitating the use of calibration measurement.

[0032] The number of the grids 503 is five groups, and the spacing between each grid 503 is two meters. Through the design of multiple groups of grids 503 in cooperation with the first reflector 505, multiple positions can be measured and calibrated to ensure the accuracy of the measurement. A connecting plate 510 is arranged at the top of the first cylinder 504, and one end of the connecting plate 510 is fixedly connected to the first reflector 505. Therefore, the first cylinder 504 can drive the first reflector 505 to move up and down for adjustment. Similarly, the second cylinder 506 can drive the second reflector 507 to move up and down for adjustment, thus facilitating the adjustment setting of the measurement and calibration, reducing the manual adjustment work, and improving the efficiency of the measurement and calibration.

[0033] There are two groups of signal transmitters 3, which are respectively arranged at the upper and lower ends of the mobile rack 2. The two groups of signal transmitters 3 correspond to the middle positions of the two groups of grid 503 areas, facilitating the simultaneous measurement of two high-precision radar level gauges, ensuring the accuracy of measurement calibration, reducing the work of repeated calibration, improving the efficiency of measurement calibration. There is a serrated block 508 inside the grid 503. Through the setting of the serrated block 508, the signal can be enhanced and the interference signal can be suppressed to ensure the accuracy of measurement calibration.

[0034] When in use, the two groups of signal transmitters 3 are installed on the mounting base 1, and then microwave pulses are shot into the grid 503. By adjusting the positions of the first reflector 505 and the second reflector 507, the microwave pulses are blocked. The microwave signals reflected after the microwave pulses contact the surface of the first reflector 505 are received by the signal receiver 4 to measure the distance between calibrations and ensure the high-precision effect of the radar level gauge.

[0035] Compare the microwave signal data obtained after calibration with the standard data to confirm whether the calibration accuracy meets the predetermined requirements. If there is a deviation, re-adjust the calibration of the relevant grid.

[0036] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it can be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
