Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electrolytic cells, and in particular to an electrolytic cell used for separating oxide inclusions in steel. Background Art

[0002] Electrolysis plays a crucial role in the broad field of chemical analysis, particularly in the niche area of ​​metallurgical chemical analysis. It is a key method for separating samples and purifying their active ingredients. Quantitative chemical analysis involving electrochemical reactions presents numerous challenges. Among them, air contamination of the sample due to prolonged electrolysis is a significant risk. Air contamination can introduce impurities, interfering with the accuracy of analytical results. Furthermore, acidity significantly impacts the electrolytic reaction. As the electrolytic reaction proceeds, the solution's acidity can fluctuate, affecting both the rate and direction of the reaction. Therefore, to ensure the smooth progress of the electrolytic reaction, the acidity must be adjusted continuously according to the progress of the reaction. Such an electrolytic cell must possess two key functions: effective isolation from air to prevent sample contamination during the electrolysis process, thereby ensuring accurate analytical results; and an acidity adjustment function to flexibly adjust the acidity according to the actual reaction conditions, creating a suitable environment for the electrolytic reaction and ensuring efficient and stable performance. For these reasons, the design of a specialized electrolytic cell is urgently needed. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In response to the technical problem of air entering the electrolytic cell during the electrolysis process, an electrolytic cell for separating oxide inclusions in steel is provided. The utility model designs an electrolytic cell for separating oxide inclusions in steel, which adopts a closed space design to prevent the electrolysis sample and electrolyte from being contaminated by air and dust in the air. The electrolytic cell uses composite glass with acid and high temperature resistance, and all joints and seals are made of acid- and high temperature-resistant elastic sealing materials.

[0004] The technical means adopted by this utility model are as follows:

[0028] It should be noted that the terms used herein are only for describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to the present invention. As used herein, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular form is also intended to include the plural form. In addition, it should be understood that when the terms "comprise" and / or "include" are used in this specification, they indicate the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components and / or combinations thereof.

[0029] Unless otherwise specifically stated, the relative arrangement of the parts and steps, the numerical expressions and the numerical values ​​described in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the present invention. At the same time, it should be clear that, for ease of description, the sizes of the various parts shown in the drawings are not drawn according to the actual proportional relationship. The techniques, methods and equipment known to ordinary technicians in the relevant fields may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, the techniques, methods and equipment should be considered as part of the authorization specification. In all examples shown and discussed here, any specific value should be interpreted as being merely exemplary and not as a limitation. Therefore, other examples of the exemplary embodiments may have different values. It should be noted that similar numbers and letters represent similar items in the following figures, so once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further discussed in subsequent figures.

[0030] In the description of the present invention, it needs to be understood that the directions or positional relationships indicated by directional words such as "front, back, up, down, left, right", "horizontal, vertical, vertical, horizontal" and "top, bottom" are usually based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description. Unless otherwise specified, these directional words do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction or be constructed and operated in a specific direction.

Thus, the exemplary term "above" can include both "above" and "below". The device can also be positioned in other different ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatially relative descriptions used here are interpreted accordingly.

[0032] In addition, it should be noted that the use of words such as "first" and "second" to limit components is only for the convenience of distinguishing the corresponding components. Unless otherwise stated, the above words have no special meaning and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model.
