Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of alcohol detection, in particular to a mobile liquor alcohol content detection system. Background Art

[0002] Existing alcohol content detection solutions primarily rely on the density difference between alcohol and water, using a buoyant ball to detect alcohol content. However, modern liquor production has gradually developed two key characteristics: first, the need for continuous, flowing liquor alcohol concentration detection to facilitate the capture of both the head and tail of the liquor. Second, the sensor's alcohol detection range must be high, with a large difference between the maximum and minimum allowable volumes, to accommodate the new demands of automated liquor production and electronic sampling.

[0003] Traditional instruments that use the density difference between alcohol and water to measure the alcohol concentration in liquor cannot meet this demand, making it difficult to manufacture qualified electronic sensing devices. The buoyancy of the liquor is significantly affected by the flow of the liquor, creating significant noise that is difficult to filter out in electronic systems, making it impossible to detect the true alcohol content. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model provides a flowing liquor alcohol content detection system, which collects the refractive index of the liquor medium through a CCD linear array sensor, thereby dynamically detecting the flowing liquor liquid and facilitating the interception of the liquor head and tail.

[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a flowing liquor alcohol content detection system, comprising: a detection chamber, a liquid inlet is provided at the top of the detection chamber, a horizontal transparent detection window is provided at the bottom, and a liquid outlet is provided on one side of the detection chamber; a laser emitter, the laser emitter is fixed at the bottom of the transparent detection window, and the optical axis of the laser emitter is perpendicular to the transparent detection window; a CCD linear array sensor, the CCD linear array sensor is fixedly arranged on one side of the laser emitter, and the long axis of the CCD linear array sensor points to the laser emitter; a reflector, the reflector is tilted inside the detection chamber, and reflects the light of the laser emitter through the transparent detection window to the CCD linear array sensor through the tilt angle; a processor, the laser emitter and the CCD linear array sensor are electrically connected to the processor respectively, and the processor is provided with a display screen.

[0006] Preferably, a homogenizer is further included, wherein the homogenizer is embedded in the liquid inlet and is electrically connected to the processor.

[0007] Preferably, the laser color of the laser emitter is blue.

[0008] Preferably, the side of the detection chamber away from the liquid outlet is a cylindrical structure, and a piston is fitted inside the cylinder; an electric cylinder connected to the piston is provided outside the detection chamber, and the electric cylinder is electrically connected to the processor.

[0009] Preferably, it further comprises an adjustment shaft which passes through the detection cavity transversely, the reflector is arranged on the adjustment shaft through a bracket, and an adjustment knob is provided at one end of the adjustment shaft which is located outside the detection cavity.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model include: utilizing the refractive index changes in liquor of varying concentrations to detect the alcohol content of flowing alcohol. Furthermore, the blue laser employed has good directivity and low energy, preventing hazardous reactions such as high temperatures. Furthermore, depending on the alcohol concentration of the liquor being measured, the device can theoretically detect liquor concentrations ranging from 0% to 100%. The variable detection chamber volume allows for adjustments to accommodate liquor flow rates. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0015] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solution of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only some of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0016] according to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, a flowing liquor alcohol content detection system comprises: a detection chamber 2, wherein the detection chamber 2 is provided with a liquid inlet 3 at the top, a horizontal transparent detection window 5 at the bottom, and a liquid outlet 4 at one side of the detection chamber 2; a laser emitter 6, wherein the laser emitter 6 is fixed at the bottom of the transparent detection window 5, and the optical axis of the laser emitter 6 is perpendicular to the transparent detection window 5; a CCD line array sensor 7, wherein the CCD line array sensor 7 is fixedly arranged on one side of the laser emitter 6, and the long axis of the CCD line array sensor 7 points to the laser emitter 6; a reflector 8, wherein the reflector 8 is tiltedly arranged inside the detection chamber 2, and reflects the light of the laser emitter 6 through the transparent detection window 5 to the CCD line array sensor 7 through the tilt angle; a processor 9, wherein the laser emitter 6 and the CCD line array sensor 7 are electrically connected to the processor 9 respectively, and the processor 9 is provided with a display screen 10.

[0017] Through the above design, the flowing liquor alcohol content detection system is connected in parallel to the liquor flow pipe 1 of the distiller via the liquid inlet 3 and the liquid outlet 4, thereby allowing the liquor tributary to pass through the detection chamber 2. During the detection process, the processor 9 controls the operation of the laser emitter 6, and its laser beam is reflected by the reflector 8 to the CCD linear array sensor 7. During this process, the laser beam undergoes optical refraction with the liquor medium within the detection chamber 2, ultimately striking different positions of the CCD linear array sensor 7. At this time, the processor 9 determines the liquor alcohol content within the detection chamber 2 based on the feedback from the CCD linear array sensor 7. Since this process performs dynamic monitoring while the liquor is flowing, it overcomes the shortcomings of traditional static detection solutions. At the same time, the signal output terminal 15 of the processor 9 can communicate with the liquor equipment management system, thereby facilitating the interception of the liquor head and tail. The laser light of the laser emitter 6 is blue, has good directionality, low energy, and does not produce dangerous reactions such as high temperature.

[0018] The liquid inlet 3 further includes a homogenizer 11 , which is embedded in the liquid inlet 3 and electrically connected to the processor 9 .

[0019] This design uses a homogenizer 11 to stir the liquor entering the detection chamber 2, thereby obtaining a more stable and linear detection result.

[0020] The side of the detection chamber 2 away from the liquid outlet 4 is a cylindrical structure, and a piston 12 is fitted inside the cylinder; an electric cylinder 13 connected to the piston 12 is provided outside the detection chamber 2, and the electric cylinder 13 is electrically connected to the processor 9.

[0021] With this arrangement, the volume of the detection chamber 2 is made variable by the control of the electric cylinder 13 by the processor 9, thereby allowing the volume of the measurement chamber to be changed to adapt to the detection of liquor at different flow rates.

[0022] It also includes an adjustment shaft 14 that passes through the detection cavity 2 transversely. The reflector 8 is set on the adjustment shaft 14 through a bracket. An adjustment knob is provided at one end of the adjustment shaft 14 located outside the detection cavity 2.

[0023] With this setting, the staff can change the tilt angle of the reflector 8 by adjusting the knob, thereby achieving fine-tuning of the detection accuracy to meet the detection requirements of all concentrations of wine liquids from 0% to 100%.

[0024] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any modifications or substitutions that can be easily conceived by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be based on the scope of protection of the claims.
