[0002] In winter, snow and ice accumulation cause numerous inconveniences to road traffic and people's daily lives. To address this problem, deicing agents are widely used, effectively lowering the freezing point and rapidly melting snow and ice. However, there are many different types of deicing agents on the market, and their deicing capabilities vary widely.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The principles and features of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0022] It should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "installed," "connected," and "connected" should be understood broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integrated structures. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of such terms in this patent based on specific circumstances.

[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the deicing agent deicing ability measuring device of the present invention comprises a test platform 1, above which a supporting mesh plate 2 is set; a deicing agent spraying rack 3 and a deicing agent storage tank 4 are arranged in sequence along the test platform 1; the deicing agent spraying rack 3 is provided with a lifting seat 3.1 and a lifting assembly 5 connected to the lifting seat 3.1; a horizontal main feed pipe 6 is set on the lifting seat 3.1, and the main feed pipe 6 is connected with a plurality of spraying branches 7 extending to the top of the supporting mesh plate 2, and the end of the spraying branch 7 is equipped with a nozzle 7.1 facing the supporting mesh plate 2; a pumping assembly 8 for transporting the deicing agent in the box to the main feed pipe 6 is also provided on one side of the deicing agent storage tank 4.

[0024] The device first stores the deicing agent to be tested in a deicing agent storage tank 4, and places standard-sized snow or ice cubes on the support mesh 2. When preparing for testing, the pumping assembly 8 activates, pumping the deicing agent from the storage tank 4 and delivering it to the main feed pipe 6. This main feed pipe 6 is located on the lifting base 3.1 of the deicing agent spray rack 3. Adjustment of the lifting assembly 5 allows precise control of the height of the main feed pipe 6 and its spray branch 7, ensuring that the spray head 7.1 is aligned with the test area on the support mesh 2.

[0025] Once the height adjustment is complete, pumping assembly 8 continues to operate, pumping deicing agent from main feed pipe 6 to spray branch pipe 7, and spraying it evenly over the test area on support mesh 2 through nozzle 7. The number and distribution of spray branch pipes 7 ensure that the deicing agent is evenly distributed over the test area.

[0026] After the test begins, the support mesh 2 above the test platform 1 carries a deicing agent, simulating the snow or ice conditions in a real environment. As the deicing agent acts, the snow or ice begins to melt, and the melted water flows through the diversion slope of the test platform 1 to the designated collection area.

[0027] Finally, by collecting and measuring the amount of melted water, the deicing and ice-melting ability of the deicing agent can be evaluated. Throughout the test process, the accuracy and reliability of the test are ensured by the precise control of the lifting assembly 5 and the pumping assembly 8.

[0028] In addition, the lifting component 5 can be assembled by an electric push rod and a lifting platform; the electric push rod: as the main power source of the lifting component, it is fixedly connected to the robot or equipment, including a cylinder body and a piston rod that can be extended in the cylinder body; the lifting platform is fixedly connected to the piston rod of the electric push rod, and is used to carry objects or equipment that need to be lifted.

[0029] The lifting assembly 5 can also be lifted and lowered using other electric lifting platforms, which will not be described in detail here.

[0030] As an embodiment, the surface of the testing table 1 further forms a diversion slope below the supporting mesh plate 2. Since the surface is designed as a diversion slope, the melted water can naturally flow to the lower end, thereby avoiding water accumulation on the surface.

[0031] As a supplement, a meltwater collection box 9 is provided at the lower end of the diversion slope of the test platform 1. When the meltwater flows down the slope, it will eventually flow into the collection box. This design ensures that all the meltwater can be effectively collected instead of being lost or splashed.

[0032] Furthermore, the test bench 1 is surrounded by water-retaining edges 1.1, along one side of which is a water channel 1.2 extending to the top of the meltwater collection tank 9. To prevent meltwater from overflowing from the sides of the test bench 1, the water-retaining edges 1.1 ensure that water can only flow along the surface and cannot overflow from the edges.

[0033] In addition, the melt water collection box 9 is transparent and can be made of glass, and the box body is marked with scales, which improves the convenience and intuitiveness of the experiment, allowing the experimenter to grasp the effect of the deicing agent on melting snow and ice in real time.

[0034] As an embodiment, the pumping assembly 8 is a powder delivery pump, and both the input and output ends of the powder delivery pump are connected to the snow melting agent storage tank 4 and the main feed pipe 6 through a bellows.

[0035] Deicing agents are typically stored and used in powder form. Powder transfer pumps efficiently and reliably deliver powdered deicing agents from storage tanks to the required locations. Bellows offer excellent flexibility and sealing properties, accommodating a range of displacement and vibration, ensuring leak-free transport.

[0036] As an embodiment, it also includes a movable guide rail 10, and the bottom of the de-icing agent spraying rack 3 is equipped with a roller 3.2 that cooperates with the movable guide rail 10. Through the cooperation of the roller and the guide rail, the moving distance and position of the spraying rack can be accurately controlled to ensure that the de-icing agent can be accurately and evenly sprayed to the predetermined test area.

[0037] The deicing agent spraying rack 3 is further provided with a handle 3.3, which is directly mounted on the deicing agent spraying rack 3, so that the experimenter can directly control the movement of the spraying rack by holding the handle.

[0038] It should be noted that, in this article, the terms "include", "comprising" or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device that includes a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also includes other elements that are not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. Unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "install", "connect", and "connect" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or it can be internal communication between two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0039] Although the preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described, those skilled in the art may make additional changes and modifications to these embodiments once they have learned the basic creative concept. Therefore, the appended claims are intended to be interpreted as including the preferred embodiments and all changes and modifications that fall within the scope of the present invention.

[0040] Obviously, those skilled in the art may make various modifications and variations to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Thus, if such modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and their equivalents, the present invention is intended to include such modifications and variations.
