DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0033] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Specific embodiment one:
[0035] See also Figure 1-8 As shown, the present invention is a honey moisture detection device comprising a pin-type moisture meter 1, a pin sensor 2, a motorized retractor 3, a sensor holder 4, a scraper assembly 5, a closer 6, and a first spring 9. The pin-type moisture meter 1 and the pin sensor 2 are connected via wires. The two pins of the pin sensor 2 are inserted into the honey, and the pin-type moisture meter 1 reads, calculates, and outputs the moisture content of the honey. The scraper assembly 5 cleans the pins of the pin sensor 2, effectively preventing interference during consecutive measurements and ensuring the accuracy of the test data.
[0036] The utility model combines an electric retractor 3, a sensor clamping seat 4, a scraping assembly 5, a closer 6, a first spring 9, etc., and installs a pin-type moisture meter 1 and a pin sensor 2 thereon respectively. The pin of the pin sensor 2 can be cleaned after each detection of honey by a single-handed operation, thereby reducing the labor intensity of cleaning the pin and facilitating the continuous operation of honey moisture detection.
[0037] The electric retractor 3 specifically comprises a rectangular plate 31. A rectangular through-hole 32 is defined in the upper half of the plate 31. A lead screw motor 33 is mounted on the upper end of the plate 31, with a lead screw extending through the through-hole 32. A T-shaped lead screw slider 34 is threadedly connected to the lead screw of the lead screw motor 33 within the through-hole 32. The T-shaped lead screw slider 34 is pivotally connected to the sensor holder 4 via a hinge. The pin sensor 2 is mounted on the sensor holder 4.
[0038] A positioning mount 7, which mates with the scraper assembly 5, is fixed to the front side of the rectangular plate 31, below the rectangular through-hole 32. A cylindrical rod 35 is fixed to each side of the positioning mount 7. The upper end of each cylindrical rod 35 is connected to a closer 6 via a first bearing 8. The closer 6 is connected to the sensor holder 4 on the same side via a first spring 9.
[0039] A handle 36 is fixed to the rear side of the rectangular plate 31. A selector switch 37 is provided on the handle 36 to control the bidirectional rotation of the lead screw motor 33. A rectangular plate 38 is fixed perpendicularly to the rear side of the rectangular plate 31. The pin-type moisture meter 1 is mounted on one side of the rectangular plate 38. A battery compartment 39 is mounted on the other side of the rectangular plate 38. Two guide grooves 310 are defined on the side of the T-shaped lead screw slider 34 facing the rectangular plate 31. Two guide bars 311 are fixed to the side of the rectangular plate 31, which mate with the guide grooves 310. A limit block 312 is fixed to the middle of the side of the T-shaped lead screw slider 34 facing the lead screw motor 33.
[0040] The sensor clamping seat 4 includes a clamping base 41 and a pressure cover 42. The clamping base 41 is rotatably connected to the T-shaped screw slider 34 through a hinge. The clamping base 41 is provided with a first groove 411 that cooperates with the main body of the pin sensor 2. The clamping base 41 is provided with a row of threaded holes 412 on both sides of the first groove 411. The pressure cover 42 is provided with a second groove 421 that cooperates with the main body of the pin sensor 2. The pressure cover 42 is provided with a row of countersunk through holes 422 on both sides of the second groove 421. The clamping base 41, the pin sensor 2 and the pressure cover 42 are connected and fixed by two rows of countersunk bolts. An extension rod 413 is fixed to each end of the clamping base 41. The end of the extension rod 413 is provided with a first circular through hole 414 that passes through the radial direction. One end of the first spring 9 is installed on the first circular through hole 414.
[0041] The closer 6 comprises a circular tube 61 that engages the outer ring of the first bearing 8. A lug plate 62 and a pressure plate 63 are fixed to the outer wall of the circular tube 61. The other end of the first spring 9 is mounted on the lug plate 62. The free end of the pressure plate 63 abuts against the outer surface of the side wiping module 52.
[0042] The pin-type moisture meter 1 is installed on the electric retractor 3, and the sensor clamping seat 4 is installed on the T-shaped screw slider 34 in a rotating connection manner. The sensor clamping seat 4 and the closer 6 are connected by two first springs 9. In the process of the screw motor 33 driving the T-shaped screw slider 34 to carry the sensor clamping seat 4 upward, the first spring 9 is stretched, and the sensor clamping seat 4 flips the pin sensor 2 to the scraping assembly 5 below. The closer 6 rests on the side wiping module 52 to increase the clamping force of the sensor pin between the side wiping module 52 and the center wiping module 51. As the sensor clamping seat 4 moves upward, the stretching length of the first spring 9 increases, and the clamping force between the side wiping module 52 and the center wiping module 51 increases, thereby improving the cleanliness of the scraping of the sensor pin. After the pin sensor 2 is completely separated from the scraping assembly 5, the screw motor 33 is stopped to complete the automatic cleaning of the pin sensor 2. The process status is as shown below. Figure 2 shown.
[0043] When preparing for the next test, the screw motor 33 rotates in the reverse direction, the pin sensor 2 moves downward, and when the pin of the pin sensor 2 contacts the scraper assembly 5, the end is guided to flip upward, that is, the sensor clamping seat 4 flips upward to prevent the pin from being contaminated by a layer of honey again. When the first spring 9 reaches the natural expansion and contraction state, the screw motor 33 continues to rotate, and the first spring 9 pushes the sensor clamping seat 4 upward to flip it to the position shown in FIG. Figure 1 The moisture content of honey can be tested in the state shown.
[0044] The positioning mounting base 7 includes a base plate 71 fixed to the front side of the rectangular plate 31. A rectangular groove 72 is defined in the center of the base plate 71. A magnet 73 is embedded in the bottom of the rectangular groove 72. Two second bearings 74 are embedded in the lower end of the base plate 71 symmetrically about the rectangular groove 72.
[0045] The scraping assembly 5 comprises a central wiper module 51, two symmetrical side wiper modules 52, and a second spring 53. The central wiper module 51 is mounted within a rectangular groove 72. The two side wiper modules 52 are symmetrically inserted into the inner races of the two second bearings 74. The two side wiper modules 52 are symmetrically defined with circular grooves 524. The ends of the second spring 53 are respectively positioned within the two circular grooves 524.
[0046] The central wiping module 51 comprises a square tube 511. An iron plate 512 is fixed to the lower end of the square tube 511. A T-shaped wiping cotton block 513 is fixed to the interior of the square tube 511, extending outward. First tooth-shaped notches 514 are symmetrically defined on both sides of the T-shaped wiping cotton block 513. The connection between the T-shaped wiping cotton block 513 and the square tube 511 is secured by compression and tensioning.
[0047] The side wiping module 52 includes an L-shaped plate 521. A rotating shaft 522 is fixed to the lower corner of the L-shaped plate 521, which engages with the inner race of the second bearing 74. A rectangular wiping cotton block 523 is fixed to the inner side of the L-shaped plate 521. A circular groove 524 is defined in the rectangular wiping cotton block 523. A second tooth-shaped notch 525 is defined on the side of the rectangular wiping cotton block 523 opposite the center wiping module 51. The rectangular wiping cotton block 523 is secured using Velcro.
[0048] Both the T-shaped wiping cotton block 513 and the rectangular wiping cotton block 523 have a sloped surface on their upper edges facing the pin sensor 2. When the pin sensor 2 reaches the slope during its downward movement, it deflects upward along the slope, thereby deflecting the sensor holder 4 and preventing damage to the pin sensor 2. The first toothed notch 514 of the T-shaped wiping cotton block 513 and the second toothed notch 525 of the rectangular wiping cotton block 523 both enhance cleaning of the pin sensor 2's surface, effectively ensuring complete honey removal.
[0049] The T-shaped wiping cotton block 513 and the rectangular wiping cotton block 523 are both fixed in a replaceable manner, which is convenient for replacement after a period of use.
