Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of water quality detection, in particular to a water quality detection device. Background Art
[0002] Water quality testing involves measuring and analyzing physical, chemical, biological, and radioactive indicators in water using a range of techniques and methods to assess water quality and environmental trends. A turbidimeter is a type of water quality testing device that measures the turbidity of a liquid by detecting the scattering or transmission of light by suspended matter. During turbidity measurement, tiny bubbles may form when the liquid is subjected to pressure release, temperature increase, or external disturbances. These bubbles can interfere with the normal transmission of light, leading to measurement errors.
[0003] Currently, traditional defoaming methods mainly include natural gravity defoaming, chemical defoaming, pressure defoaming, and mechanical defoaming. Natural gravity defoaming uses gravity to make bubbles float and dissipate, but its effect is limited under liquid flow conditions. Chemical defoaming, although effective, increases production costs and poses the risk of environmental pollution. Pressure defoaming eliminates bubbles by adjusting the liquid pressure. The operation is complex and the defoaming effect varies depending on the liquid characteristics. Mechanical defoaming uses mechanical stirring or filtering devices to remove bubbles. The effectiveness depends on the equipment design and may make the bubbles smaller, which in turn increases the difficulty of measurement.
[0004] Therefore, it is urgent to propose a water quality detection device to solve the above technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0040] Example 1
[0041] This embodiment provides a water quality detection device that can guide the movement of bubbles and keep them away from the detection area, thereby improving the accuracy of water quality detection results. It also has a simple structure and low cost.
[0042] Specifically, if Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the water quality detection device includes a housing 100 , a water quality detection module and a bubble guide 200 .
[0043] The housing 100 includes a detection chamber 110. A water inlet channel 120 communicating with the detection chamber 110 is provided at the first end of the housing 100, and a water outlet channel 130 communicating with the detection chamber 110 is provided at the second end of the housing 100. Water to be tested is transported into the detection chamber 110 through the inlet channel and flows out through the outlet channel 130. Detection windows 140 are provided on at least two sidewalls of the housing 100, forming a detection area within the detection chamber 110 between all detection windows 140. The water quality detection module includes a first transmitting end and a receiving end, and uses these first transmitting end and the receiving end to detect the water quality within the detection area. A bubble guide 200 is provided within the detection chamber 110 to guide bubbles entering the detection chamber 110 out of the detection area. By providing the bubble guide 200 to guide bubbles entering the detection chamber 110 out of the detection area, bubbles are prevented from interfering with the normal transmission of light emitted by the first transmitting end, thereby improving the accuracy of the detection results. The water quality detection device adopts a bubble-guiding method to avoid the influence of bubbles on the detection results. Compared with some traditional defoaming methods, it significantly improves the accuracy of the detection results, and has a simple structure and low cost.
[0044] It is understandable that if the two detection windows 140 are arranged opposite to each other, the detection area is Figure 3 The area shown in the dotted box.
[0045] Optionally, the first emitting end can emit an infrared light source for detecting the turbidity of water. In this configuration, two detection windows 140 can be provided, and the two detection windows 140 can be provided on two adjacent side walls of the housing 100 .
[0046] Furthermore, the water quality detection device may also include a second transmitting end that can emit ultraviolet light for detecting organic matter in water. With this arrangement, detection windows 140 are provided on three adjacent side walls of the housing 100, two of which are provided with a first transmitting end and a second transmitting end, respectively, and another detecting window 140 is provided with a receiving end. When the second transmitting end is used to detect organic matter in water, the second transmitting end needs to be positioned opposite the receiving end.
[0047] Further, see Figure 2 A window 141 is provided on the side wall of the housing 100. A transparent plate 142 is sealed against the window 141. Window 141 and transparent plate 142 form a detection window 140. Furthermore, transparent plate 142 is smooth. Using a smooth transparent plate 142 to form detection window 140 reduces the effect of light refraction compared to conventional quartz tube solutions, reducing the impact of stray light on test results and thereby improving the accuracy of water quality test results. Alternatively, transparent plate 142 may be a quartz plate.
[0048] Optionally, continue with Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this embodiment, a mounting bracket 400 for mounting the first transmitting end or receiving end is provided on the side wall of the housing 100. A sealing member 143 is provided at the outer edge of the window 141. The mounting bracket 400 presses the transparent plate 142 against the sealing member 143. The mounting bracket 400 and the sealing member 143 achieve a sealed seal between the transparent plate 142 and the window 141, providing excellent sealing performance, a simple structure, and convenient installation and removal.
[0049] Optionally, an annular groove for mounting the sealing member 143 may be provided at the outer edge of the window 141 to improve the mounting strength of the sealing member 143 .
[0050] Optionally, the mounting bracket 400 may be connected to the side wall of the housing 100 by bolt connection, or may be connected to the side wall of the housing 100 by other means, and may be configured according to actual needs, and this application does not make any specific limitations.
[0051] In this embodiment, mounting brackets 400 are provided on the sidewalls of the housing 100 where the detection window 140 is provided. Through holes can be provided on the mounting brackets 400, and the first transmitting end or the receiving end is opposite to the detection window 140 through the through holes to facilitate emitting or receiving light.
[0052] Furthermore, the water inlet channel 120 and the water outlet channel 130 can both be L-shaped. Such an arrangement makes the water inlet direction of the water inlet channel 120 perpendicular to the water outlet direction, and the water inlet direction of the water outlet channel 130 also perpendicular to the water outlet direction, so as to achieve the purpose of turbulent flow of the water in the detection cavity 110, and carry away the bubbles hanging on the detection window 140 through turbulence, so as to avoid the bubbles attached to the detection window 140 affecting the results of water quality detection, thereby improving the accuracy of the detection results.
[0053] Furthermore, the water inlet channel 120 may be disposed at the bottom of the housing 100 , and the water outlet channel 130 may be disposed at the top of the housing 100 . This arrangement allows bubbles to be better discharged from the detection cavity 110 by floating upward.
[0054] Furthermore, the water outlet of the water inlet channel 120 can be staggered with the detection area. In this way, when the bubbles generated after the water flow in the water inlet channel 120 stops suddenly enter the detection cavity 110 from the water outlet of the water inlet channel 120, they will generally rise directly in the vertical direction. The rising path will not enter the detection area, thereby reducing the risk of bubbles entering the detection area and affecting the detection results after the water flow stops suddenly.
[0055] Further, see Figure 3 The detection chamber 110 is equipped with an inclined turbulence plate 300, which is positioned opposite the outlet of the water inlet channel 120. Water entering the detection chamber 110 from the outlet of the water inlet channel 120 is incident on the turbulence plate 300 and, guided by the turbulence plate 300, splashes onto all detection windows 140. The turbulence plate 300 redirects the water flow, flushing the detection windows 140 and removing any bubbles adhering to them, thereby improving the accuracy of water quality test results. The turbulence plate 300 also features a simple structure and low cost.
[0056] Optionally, a corner of the turbulence plate 300 near the first end of the housing 100 is disposed opposite the water outlet of the water inlet channel 120. This arrangement allows the water flowing into the detection cavity 110 from the water outlet of the water inlet channel 120 to be directly sprayed onto the corner of the turbulence plate 300, resulting in a better turbulent flow effect.
[0057] Furthermore, the water inlet of the water inlet channel 120 is connected to the water inlet pipe 104, and the length of the water inlet pipe 104 is greater than or equal to 1 meter. With this arrangement, when the water flow into the detection chamber is suddenly stopped, most of the bubbles generated will remain in the water inlet pipe 104, reducing the number of bubbles entering the detection chamber 110, which helps reduce the impact of bubbles on the detection results and thus improves the accuracy of the detection results.
[0058] Optionally, a water outlet pipe 105 may be provided at the water outlet of the water outlet channel 130 , and the water to be tested is transported into the testing cavity 110 through the water inlet pipe 104 and discharged through the water outlet pipe 105 .
[0059] Optionally, continue with Figure 3 The shell 100 includes a cylinder 101, which has a detection cavity 110. The two ends of the cylinder 101 are sealed by an upper end cover 102 and a lower end cover 103. The water inlet channel 120 is provided on the lower end cover 103, and the water outlet channel 130 is provided on the upper end cover 102.
[0060] Furthermore, in one possible embodiment, the upper end cover 102 and the cylinder 101, as well as the lower end cover 103 and the cylinder 101, can be connected by bolts. The bolt connection structure is simple and easy to install and remove. In addition, a sealing ring is provided between the upper end cover 102 and the cylinder 101 for sealing, and a sealing ring is provided between the lower end cover 103 and the cylinder 101 for sealing.
[0061] Further, see Figure 3 The bubble guide 200 is a bubble baffle 210 disposed below the detection area. Bubble baffle 210 is used to block bubbles below the detection area. Alternatively, bubble baffle 210 has a guide surface that guides bubbles out of the detection area, causing them to float upward. This bubble guide 200 has a simple structure, is easy to manufacture, and is relatively low in cost.
[0062] Furthermore, one side wall of the bubble baffle 210 is attached to the side wall of the housing 100 having the detection window 140. This arrangement can prevent bubbles from rising through the gap between the bubble baffle 210 and the side wall of the housing 100 having the detection window 140 and passing through the detection window 140, thereby affecting the detection results.
[0063] Optionally, the surface of the bubble baffle 210 that contacts the bubbles is smooth, so that the bubbles can eventually escape from the bubble baffle 210 and be discharged from the detection cavity 110 .
[0064] Optionally, continue with Figure 3 In one possible embodiment, the bubble baffle 210 is a flat plate that can be positioned horizontally. In this case, the plate can block bubbles below the detection area, preventing them from floating upward and affecting the propagation of the detection light of the water quality detection module. The plate can also be tilted. In this case, the lower surface of the plate serves as a guide surface, which guides the bubbles in the upward direction, causing them to float outside the detection area.
[0065] Alternatively, as Figure 4As shown, in another possible embodiment, the bubble baffle 210 may also be funnel-shaped. In this configuration, the outer peripheral surfaces of the bubble baffle 210 are all guide surfaces.
[0066] Alternatively, as Figure 5 As shown, in yet another possible embodiment, the bubble baffle 210 may also be in a “V” shape.
[0067] It is understandable that the shape of the bubble baffle 210 can be set according to actual needs and is not specifically limited in this application.
[0068] Example 2
[0069] This embodiment provides a water quality detection device, which is substantially the same in structure as the first embodiment, and is only improved on the basis of the first embodiment. Therefore, only the differences between the two are described here, and the structures of this embodiment and the first embodiment that are the same are not repeated here.
[0070] Specifically, if Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the bubble guide 200 is a guide tube 220. One end of the guide tube 220 is connected to the water outlet of the water inlet channel 120, and the other end extends above the detection area. The guide tube 220 is located outside the detection area. This arrangement ensures that bubbles entering through the water inlet channel 120 are always guided away from the detection area by the guide tube 220, effectively eliminating bubbles in the detection area and improving the accuracy of water quality test results.
[0071] Obviously, the above-described embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for the purpose of clearly illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the manner in which the present invention is to be implemented. A person skilled in the art would be able to make various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all embodiments here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
