Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of liquid level gauges, and in particular relates to a high-temperature resistant magnetostrictive liquid level gauge. Background Art
[0002] Industrial production often requires high-precision liquid level measurement, often in environments with high temperatures. Conventional magnetostrictive level gauges are primarily used to measure liquid surfaces and interfaces. These gauges have no forced moving parts, a simple structure, and offer rapid continuous, real-time measurement, facilitating real-time monitoring of industrial sites. They are widely used for level and interface measurement in various liquid tanks, including petroleum and chemical raw material storage, industrial processes, biochemicals, pharmaceuticals, food and beverages, tank farm management, and underground storage at gas stations. However, conventional magnetostrictive products operate only at temperatures below 130°C and lack protection for the sensor's guide tube. Utility Model Content
[0003] The utility model aims to provide a high-temperature resistant magnetostrictive liquid level gauge to solve the technical problem that the guide tube of the protection sensor cannot be protected.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the specific technical solution of a high-temperature resistant magnetostrictive liquid level gauge of the present invention is as follows:
[0005] A high-temperature resistant magnetostrictive liquid level gauge includes a liquid level gauge body, a positioning slot, an installation slider, a slot, a sensor guide tube, a rod sliding cavity, a rod, and a rod push spring. The liquid level gauge body is provided with a slot, in which a mounting slider is slidably installed, the mounting slider is fixedly installed on the sensor guide tube, the sensor guide tube is slidably installed on the liquid level gauge body, the level gauge body is provided with a positioning slot, and multiple positioning slots are provided, the installation slider is provided with a rod sliding cavity, in which a rod is slidably installed, a rod push spring is provided between the rod and the rod sliding cavity, and the rod is cooperatively connected with the positioning slot.
[0006] Furthermore, a limit ring is fixedly installed on the sensor guide tube, a communicating hole is opened on the sensor guide tube, and a plurality of communicating holes are provided, and a float is slidably installed in the sensor guide tube.
[0007] Furthermore, a group of permanent magnetic rings are arranged in the float.
[0008] Furthermore, a plurality of the positioning slots are arranged in a linear array along the liquid level meter body.
[0009] Furthermore, a plurality of the communication holes are arranged in a linear array along the sensor guide tube.
[0010] The advantages of the present invention are:
[0011] 1. The circuit part of the sensor will excite a pulse current on the waveguide wire, and when the current propagates along the waveguide wire, it will generate a pulse current magnetic field around the waveguide wire. A float is provided in the sensor guide tube of the magnetostrictive liquid level gauge, and this float can move up and down along the sensor guide tube as the liquid level changes. When the pulse current magnetic field meets the magnetic field generated by the magnetic ring inside the float, since the two magnetic fields are in orthogonal directions, the resulting magnetic field force causes the waveguide wire made of magnetostrictive material to generate a torsional wave pulse at the position of the float. This pulse is transmitted back along the waveguide wire at a fixed speed and detected by the detection mechanism. By measuring the time difference between the pulse current and the torsional wave, the position of the float, that is, the position of the liquid level, can be accurately determined. A high-temperature resistant waveguide wire is selected and firmly placed in the sensor guide tube using high-temperature resistant insulating material. The upper waveguide wire is lengthened and a special radiator is installed to keep the meter head away from high-temperature working conditions. It can be used in
[0012] It can also work stably at high temperature of 250℃;
[0013] 2. At the same time, in order to protect the sensor guide tube when not in use, the protective sensor guide tube is slid along the liquid level meter body. When in use, the protective sensor guide tube is slid out, and when not in use, the protective sensor guide tube is slid in, thereby protecting the protective sensor guide tube.

[0022] Embodiment 1
[0023] As Figures 1-5As shown, a high-temperature resistant magnetostrictive liquid level gauge includes a liquid level gauge body 1, a positioning slot 2, an installation slider 3, a slot 4, a sensor guide tube 5, a rod slide cavity 9, a rod 10, and a rod push spring 11. The liquid level gauge body 1 is provided with a slot 4, in which a mounting slider 3 is slidably installed, the mounting slider 3 is fixedly installed on the sensor guide tube 5, and the sensor guide tube 5 is slidably installed on the liquid level gauge body 1. The level gauge body 1 is provided with a positioning slot 2, and a plurality of positioning slots 2 are provided. The installation slider 3 is provided with a rod slide cavity 9, in which a rod 10 is slidably installed, a rod push spring 11 is provided between the rod 10 and the rod slide cavity 9, and the rod 10 is cooperatively connected with the positioning slot 2. With such a configuration, the circuit part of the sensor will excite a pulse current on the waveguide wire, and when the current propagates along the waveguide wire, a pulse current magnetic field will be generated around the waveguide wire. The magnetostrictive liquid level gauge's sensor guide tube 5 houses a float 8, which moves up and down along the sensor guide tube 5 as the liquid level changes. When the pulse current's magnetic field meets the magnetic field generated by the magnetic ring within float 8, the two magnetic fields are orthogonal. The resulting combined force causes the waveguide wire, made of magnetostrictive material, to generate a torsional wave pulse at the location of float 8. This pulse travels back along the waveguide wire at a fixed speed and is detected by a detection mechanism. By measuring the time difference between the pulse current and the torsional wave, the position of float 8, and therefore the liquid level, can be precisely determined. A high-temperature-resistant waveguide wire is selected and securely placed within the sensor guide tube 5 using high-temperature insulating material. The upper waveguide wire is lengthened and fitted with a special heat sink to protect the meter from high-temperature conditions. It can work stably even at a high temperature of 250°C; at the same time, in order to protect the sensor guide tube 5 when not in use, the protective sensor guide tube 5 is slid along the liquid level meter body 1. When in use, the protective sensor guide tube 5 is slid out, and when not in use, the protective sensor guide tube 5 is slid in, thereby protecting the protective sensor guide tube 5.
