Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of mass flowmeter measuring tubes, in particular to a single-tube double-layer Coriolis mass flowmeter measuring tube. Background Art

[0002] Coriolis mass flowmeters can have single, dual, or multiple measuring tubes. Currently, dual-tube flowmeters are the most widely used and technologically mature. Dual-tube flowmeters typically employ two independent measuring tubes arranged in parallel. A splitter mechanism divides the flow into the two tubes and then reunites them. However, the flow must be divided and reunited at the front and rear ends of the measuring tubes, which inevitably results in pressure loss and a large calibration factor, affecting metering accuracy. Utility Model Content

[0003] Aiming at the problems in the existing technical solutions such as the diversion and confluence of the diverter-double-tube structure causing pressure loss and the large calibration coefficient affecting the measurement accuracy, the utility model provides a single-tube double-layer Coriolis mass flowmeter measuring tube.

[0004] The utility model provides the following technical solutions: a single-tube double-layer Coriolis mass flowmeter measuring tube, comprising a first connecting section, a measuring tube body, and a second connecting section;

[0005] The measuring tube body comprises an upper layer pipe, an inclined pipe and a lower layer pipe connected in sequence, the upper layer pipe and the lower layer pipe are arranged in parallel and symmetrically about the central axis of the measuring tube body, and the upper layer pipe and the lower layer pipe are both provided with a plurality of elbows;

[0006] The first connecting section and the second connecting section each include an elbow and a straight pipe connected to the elbow, the upper pipe is connected to the elbow of the first connecting section, and the lower pipe is connected to the elbow of the second connecting section. The straight pipes of the first connecting section and the second connecting section are both located in the center of the upper pipe and the lower pipe, and the straight pipes of the first connecting section and the second connecting section extend in opposite directions and their central axes are collinear.

[0007] Preferably, the measuring tube body, the first connecting section and the second connecting section are integrally formed.

[0008] Preferably, the upper and lower pipelines each include a first straight section, a first elbow, a second straight section, a second elbow, and a third straight section connected in sequence, and the inclined pipe is connected between the third straight section of the upper pipeline and the first straight section of the lower pipeline. The first straight section and the third straight section are symmetrical about the central axis of the upper pipeline, and the first elbow and the second elbow are symmetrical about the central axis of the upper pipeline.

[0009] Preferably, the upper pipe and the lower pipe are triangular.

[0010] Preferably, the connection points between the two ends of the inclined pipe and the upper pipe and the lower pipe are rounded.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: a single pipeline is used to replace the diverter-double-tube structure commonly used in the prior art, and there is no diversion or confluence working condition, which effectively reduces the pressure loss; it effectively reduces the calibration coefficient of the mass flow meter. For the same type of measuring tube, the calibration coefficient of the present invention is half of the calibration coefficient of the diverter-double-tube structure.
