[0029] In order to make the contents of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below based on specific embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0030] like Figure 1As shown, a device for measuring dissolved oxygen content in a solution comprises:

[0031] A sealed container 1 is provided with a solution storage cavity therein, the solution storage cavity is suitable for accommodating a solution to be tested, the sealed container 1 is provided with a solution inlet and a solution outlet connected to the solution storage cavity, and the solution inlet and the solution outlet are both provided with an on-off valve;

[0033] A first control valve 21 is provided on the first gas path 2, and the first control valve 21 is suitable for controlling the gas flow in the first gas path 2;

[0034] a second gas path 3, the second gas path 3 passing through the sealed container 1 and communicating with the solution storage chamber, the second gas path 3 being adapted to discharge gas from the solution storage chamber of the sealed container 1;

[0035] A second control valve 31 is provided on the second gas path 3, and the second control valve 31 is suitable for controlling the gas flow in the second gas path 3;

[0036] A sampling container 4 is provided with a sampling cavity therein, a communication pipe 42 is provided between the sampling container 4 and the sealed container 1, the communication pipe 42 connects the solution storage cavity and the sampling cavity, and a third control valve 41 is provided on the communication pipe 42, the third control valve 41 is suitable for controlling the flow of the solution in the communication pipe 42;

[0037] The sampling and measuring unit 5 is disposed in the sampling container 4 and is provided with a dissolved oxygen measuring head, which is suitable for measuring the dissolved oxygen content of the solution in the sampling cavity;

[0038] A third gas path 6 passes through the sampling container 4 and is connected to the sampling cavity. The third gas path 6 is suitable for introducing gas into the sampling cavity of the sampling container 4;

[0039] A fourth control valve 61 is provided on the third gas path 6, and the fourth control valve 61 is suitable for controlling the gas flow of the third gas path 6;

[0040] a fourth gas path 7, which passes through the sampling container 4 and is connected to the sampling cavity. The fourth gas path 7 is suitable for discharging gas that has entered the sampling cavity of the sampling container 4;

[0041] A fifth control valve 71 is provided on the fourth gas path 7 , and the fifth control valve 71 is suitable for controlling the gas flow in the fourth gas path 7 .

[0042] In this embodiment, if Figure 1As shown, first close the third control valve 41 of the connecting pipe, open the first control valve 21 of the first gas circuit and the second control valve 31 of the second gas circuit, and introduce gas into the solution storage chamber of the sealed container through the first gas circuit 2, and discharge other gases in the solution storage chamber, and maintain this for 24 hours to ensure the purity and stability of the gas in the sealed container. Then, close the second control valve 31 of the second gas circuit 3 and the fourth control valve 61 of the third gas circuit 6, and then open the fifth control valve 71 of the fourth gas circuit 7, while keeping the first control valve 21 of the first gas circuit 2 in an open state. At this time, the gas in the first gas circuit 2 and the pressure in the solution storage chamber of the sealed container are used to press the solution to be tested in the solution storage chamber into the sampling chamber of the sampling container 4 through the connecting pipe 42. The dissolved oxygen content of the solution to be tested is measured using a dissolved oxygen measuring head located in the sampling chamber.

[0043] After the measurement is completed, the first control valve 21 of the first gas circuit 2 and the fifth control valve 71 of the fourth gas circuit 7 are closed, and the second control valve 31 of the second gas circuit 3 and the fourth control valve 61 of the third gas circuit 6 are reopened to pressurize the sampled solution back into the solution storage chamber of the sealed container through the connecting pipe 42. This closed gas circuit control and solution transmission method effectively avoids interference with the dissolved oxygen measurement from external gases, ensures the accuracy of the dissolved oxygen data in the solution, and significantly improves the accuracy and reliability of the measurement.

[0044] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, on the sealed container 1 , the air outlet of the first air path 2 is located lower than the air inlet of the second air path 3 .

[0045] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, on sealed container 1, the outlet of first gas path 2 is positioned lower than the inlet of second gas path 3. This ensures that the gas introduced through first gas path 2 is evenly distributed within the solution storage chamber of sealed container 1, and that other gases in the solution storage chamber are discharged from the upper portion of the container, avoiding dead corners or gas stagnation. Furthermore, the higher position of the inlet of second gas path 3 allows for contact with the gas within sealed container 1, more efficiently removing other gases from the solution storage chamber within sealed container 1.

[0046] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, the communication pipe 42 includes a sampling tube arranged in the solution storage chamber of the sealed container 1 and extending downward.

[0047] In this embodiment, if Figure 1As shown, the connecting pipe 42 includes a sampling tube that is arranged in the solution storage chamber of the sealed container 1 and extends downward, and the bottom of the sampling tube is located in the lower area of ​​the solution storage chamber of the sealed container 1. This ensures that when sampling, the solution deeper in the solution storage chamber can smoothly pass through the connecting pipe 42 into the sampling cavity of the sampling container 4. The problem of inaccurate dissolved oxygen content caused by sampling only from the surface of the solution can be avoided. In particular, when the solution may be stratified, the solution at the bottom can better reflect the true dissolved oxygen level of the solution in the entire sealed container 1. In addition, the downward extension design of the sampling tube can also ensure that when multiple sampling is required, even if the solution in the solution storage chamber of the sealed container 1 is reduced, sufficient solution can still be successfully collected for measurement through the sampling tube, avoiding the situation where sampling cannot be performed due to a drop in the liquid level.

[0048] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, the dissolved oxygen measuring head of the sampling and measuring unit 5 is a dissolved oxygen sensor.

[0049] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, one-way valves are provided in the first gas path 2 , the second gas path 3 , the third gas path 6 and the fourth gas path 7 .

[0050] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, the first gas path 2 and the third gas path 6 are both connected to an inert gas source, and the first gas path 2 and the third gas path 6 are suitable for introducing inert gas into the solution storage chamber of the sealed container 1 and the sampling chamber of the sampling container 4 respectively.

[0051] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, the communication pipe 42 is connected to the sampling cavity through the lower part of the sampling container 4.

[0052] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the dissolved oxygen sensor can measure the dissolved oxygen content of the solution in the sampling chamber in real time and accurately. The dissolved oxygen sensor can select a suitable model according to the actual application requirements to adapt to the chemical properties of different types of solutions; the function of the one-way valve is to ensure that the gas or liquid can only flow in one direction to prevent the gas from flowing back or the solution from flowing back. The setting of the one-way valve can effectively avoid the measurement error caused by the gas backflow. The first gas path 2 and the third gas path 6 are both connected to the inert gas source. Inert gas, such as nitrogen or argon. It can prevent other gases from reacting with the solution to be tested, thereby affecting the measurement results of dissolved oxygen. Using inert gas as the working gas in the gas path can ensure that the dissolved oxygen content in the solution does not change due to the entry of gas, while maintaining the stability of the entire measurement environment and reducing the interference of external environmental factors on the measurement.

[0053] The specific embodiments described above further illustrate the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects solved by the present invention. It should be understood that the above are only specific embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
