Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of float level gauges, in particular to a float level gauge and a float thereof. Background Art

[0002] A float level gauge is a common liquid level measurement device. It uses a float floating on the liquid surface, and the position of the float determines the liquid level. This type of level gauge typically consists of a float, a measuring rod, a magnetic switch, or a connecting rod mechanism. Due to its simple structure, high reliability, and easy installation and maintenance, it has found widespread use in various fields, including chemical engineering, water treatment, and warehousing. During design, manufacturing, and use, it is necessary to comply with relevant standards and regulations to ensure accuracy and safety. Furthermore, the design of the level gauge will vary depending on the application scenario and requirements to meet requirements for accuracy, durability, and environmental adaptability.

[0003] To use a traditional float level gauge, the float must first be installed within the gauge's measuring cylinder, ensuring it can freely move up and down in the liquid. The gauge is then connected to the container of liquid being measured, and the displacement of the liquid drives the float up and down. As the liquid level rises, the float rises; as the level drops, the float drops. By measuring the float's height, the level gauge accurately displays the current liquid level.

[0004] The float level gauge is usually installed using bolts. During this process, multiple bolts need to be installed on the mounting plate and inside the wall using special tools. This setup not only increases the complexity and time consumption of installation, but also fails to provide sufficient stability in environments with large vibrations or shaking.

[0025] The following will be combined with the 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.

[0026] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 4 , the utility model provides an embodiment: a float level gauge, including a mounting base 1, the outer wall of the mounting base 1 is fixedly connected to a connecting rod 2, the outer wall of the mounting base 1 is rotatably connected to a rotating ring 3, the inner wall of the rotating ring 3 is fixedly connected to a meshing tooth plate 4, the outer wall of the meshing tooth plate 4 is rotatably connected to the inside of the mounting base 1, the outer wall of the meshing tooth plate 4 is provided with a limiting component, the inside of the meshing tooth plate 4 is fixedly connected to a screw 5, the outer wall of the mounting base 1 is fixedly connected to a positioning block 9, the outer wall of the screw 5 is rotatably connected to the mounting base 1 and the inside of the positioning block 9, and the outer wall of the screw 5 is threadedly connected to a sliding sleeve 6, the interior of the sliding sleeve 6 is rotatably connected to a connecting rod 7, one end of the connecting rod 7 is rotatably connected to a card block 8, the outer wall of the card block 8 is slidably connected to the interior of the positioning block 9, and the limiting assembly includes a meshing tooth plate 2 10, one side of the outer wall of the meshing tooth plate 2 10 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the meshing tooth plate 1 4, and the other side of the outer wall of the meshing tooth plate 2 10 is fixedly connected to a sliding rod 11, the outer wall of the sliding rod 11 is slidably connected to the interior of the mounting seat 1, and the outer wall of the sliding rod 11 is provided with a spring 12, one end of the spring 12 is fixedly connected to the interior of the mounting seat 1, and the other end of the spring 12 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the meshing tooth plate 2 10;

[0027] Specifically, first, on one side of the mounting base 1, gently place the positioning block 9 inside the preset mounting groove to ensure that it is stable and accurately aligned. Next, rotate the rotating ring 3. As the rotating ring 3 rotates, the internal meshing tooth plate 4 will start to rotate, further driving the screw 5 to rotate. The rotation of the screw 5 causes the sleeve 6 to slide on its outer wall. The movement of the sleeve 6 will drive one end of the connecting rod 7 to move, and the other end of the connecting rod 7 is connected to the block 8. As the connecting rod 7 is pulled, the block 8 will slide inside the positioning block 9 and the mounting groove, ensuring that the block 8 can be accurately stuck in the appropriate position, thereby achieving a stable installation of the liquid level meter. During the installation process, the rotation of the meshing tooth plate 4 The meshing gear plate 10 is supported by a spring 12 at the back, so that the meshing gear plate 10 can slide smoothly between the teeth of the meshing gear plate 10, which not only ensures the smooth installation, but also increases the stability of the installation. When the installation is completed, the meshing gear plate 10 is restricted by the straight edge of the meshing gear plate 10 and cannot be reversed, which effectively prevents the problem of falling off after installation and increases the stability of the overall structure. If the liquid level gauge needs to be disassembled, first pull the meshing gear plate 10 to separate it from the meshing gear plate 10, and then rotate the rotating ring 3 in the opposite direction to easily complete the disassembly process, thereby achieving fast and accurate installation and disassembly.

[0028] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 The outer wall of the connecting rod 2 is fixedly connected to a liquid level plate 13, the inside of the liquid level plate 13 is fixedly connected to a liquid level tube 14, the outer wall of the liquid level plate 13 is fixedly connected to a scale 15, the outer wall of the liquid level plate 13 is fixedly connected to a transparent protective plate 16, the inside of the liquid level tube 14 is slidably connected to a float 17, a sealing plug 18 is provided on the top of the float 17, a distribution groove 19 is opened inside the float 17, the outer wall of the float 17 is evenly coated with an oily coating 20, a ceramic layer 21 is provided inside the float 17, a plastic layer 22 is provided inside the float 17, the ceramic layer 21 is provided on the outside of the distribution groove 19, and the plastic layer 22 is provided on the inside of the distribution groove 19;

[0029] Specifically, when the liquid level gauge is in use, the float 17 slides inside the liquid level tube 14 and works in conjunction with the scale 15 to provide accurate liquid level readings. At the same time, the presence of the transparent protective plate 16 can effectively protect the scale 15 and the float 17 from the influence of the external environment, ensuring their normal operation. During this process, the opening and closing of the sealing plug 18 can add water to the inside of the float 17, thereby adjusting the weight of the float 17 according to actual needs, so that it can adapt to different usage scenarios and liquid properties. The outer wall of the float 17 is also coated with an oily coating 20, which not only has corrosion resistance and can effectively prevent the float 17 from being corroded by chemical substances, but also can increase the service life of the float 17. At the same time, the ceramic layer 21 enhances the wear resistance of the float 17, so that it can still maintain good working condition during long-term use. Finally, the interior is filled with a lightweight and low-cost plastic layer 22, which not only has good insulation properties, but also can effectively reduce the weight of the liquid level gauge. At the same time, the plastic layer 22 also has a certain impact resistance, which can protect the liquid level gauge from external impact to a certain extent.

[0030] Working principle: When the float level gauge is needed, first place the positioning block 9 on one side of the mounting seat 1 inside the preset mounting groove, and then rotate the rotating ring 3 to drive the meshing gear plate 1 4 to rotate inside the mounting seat 1, thereby driving the screw 5 to rotate, and then the sleeve 6 slides on the outer wall of the screw 5, and then the movement of the sleeve 6 drives one end of the connecting rod 7 to move, and then the other end of the connecting rod 7 drives the clamping block 8 to slide inside the positioning block 9 and the mounting groove, thereby realizing the installation of the liquid level gauge. In this process, the rotation of the meshing gear plate 1 4 will drive the teeth to apply pressure to the meshing gear plate 2 10. At this time, the meshing gear plate 1 4 is supported by the spring 12 to slide between the teeth of the meshing gear plate 2 10, so that after installation, it is restricted by the straight edge of the meshing gear plate 2 10 to prevent the meshing gear plate 1 4 from reversing and falling off. When disassembling, first pull the meshing gear plate 2 10, and then rotate the rotating ring 3 in the opposite direction to disassemble, thereby achieving convenient and stable installation.

[0031] In addition, when the liquid level gauge is in use, the float 17 will slide inside the liquid level tube 14 and cooperate with the scale 15 for use, and will be protected by a transparent protective plate 16. During this process, the interior of the float 17 can be waterproofed by a sealing plug 18, so that the weight of the float 17 can be adjusted, and thus it can be suitable for different occasions. Then, the outer wall of the float 17 is coated with an oily coating 20 for corrosion protection, and wear resistance is achieved through a ceramic layer 21. Finally, the interior is filled with a lightweight and low-cost plastic layer 22.

[0032] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
