Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sedimentation meters, and in particular to an adjustment mechanism for a water pipe sedimentation meter. Background Technology
[0002] An electromagnetic shut-off valve is a valve controlled by an electromagnetic signal. It is mainly used in automated control systems to regulate or cut off the flow of fluid. However, traditional electromagnetic shut-off valves usually rely on sensors to determine and control the valve to close. But sensors are prone to becoming insensitive after prolonged use.
[0003] A search revealed that the Chinese patent "An Adjustment Device for a Water Pipe-Type Sedimentation Observation Cabinet" (authorization announcement number "CN214470770U") describes a utility model where the bubble of the vertical adjustment reference component 7 on the support 1 is centered by adjusting the outer nut of the double-nut expansion bolt, thus keeping the adjustment device roughly vertical. The centeredness of the bubbles in the horizontal adjustment reference component 3 and the vertical adjustment reference component 7 is checked periodically. If the bubble is found to be out of center, the inner and outer nuts of the double-nut expansion bolt are adjusted to center the bubble.
[0004] Although the above method utilizes observation of whether the bubbles in the vertical and horizontal adjustment reference components are centered, when the adjustment device is tilted, it is necessary to repeatedly tighten the inner and outer nuts of the double-nut expansion bolts to center the bubbles, which is cumbersome and inefficient.
[0005] Therefore, an adjustment mechanism for a water-tube sedimentation meter is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide an adjustment mechanism for a water-tube sedimentation meter to solve the above-mentioned problems, thereby improving the cumbersome and inefficient operation of repeatedly turning the inner and outer nuts of the double-nut expansion bolts to center the air bubble during the horizontal adjustment process.
[0007] This utility model achieves the above-mentioned objectives through the following technical solution: an adjustment mechanism for a water pipe type settling meter, comprising: a mounting frame for supporting the settling equipment, with an observation cabinet disposed on one side of the mounting frame; and an adjustment assembly, the adjustment assembly including a positioning plate disposed on one side of the mounting frame, a support rod rotatably connected to the inner cavity of the positioning plate, a connecting rod fixedly connected to the outer surface of the support rod, a connecting sleeve fixedly connected to the other end of the support rod through the positioning plate, a movable shell fixedly connected to one end of the connecting sleeve, a movable rod movably connected to the inner cavity of the movable shell via a rotating shaft, and one side of the movable rod fixedly connected to one side of the mounting frame. Through the support rod, connecting rod, and connecting sleeve, when the positioning plate is bolted to a wall or other location, if the mounting position of the positioning plate tilts left or right, the connecting rod will be affected by gravity, causing the support rod to rotate, thus keeping the support rod horizontal and simultaneously keeping the mounting frame horizontal. Through the movable shell and movable rod, when the mounting frame tilts forward or backward, the movable rod is located in the center of one side of the mounting frame, and the angle of the mounting frame is adjusted by the movable rod, ensuring that the mounting frame remains vertical.
[0008] Preferably, mounting plates are fixedly connected to both sides of the positioning plate. These mounting plates allow the adjustment assembly to be installed on a wall or other location.
[0009] Preferably, a counterweight is provided at the bottom of the connecting rod, and the counterweight is trapezoidal in shape. The counterweight allows the connecting rod to be subjected to gravity, ensuring it remains vertical.
[0010] Preferably, a positioning ring is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the connecting sleeve, and one end of the positioning ring is fixedly connected to one side of the movable shell. The positioning ring secures the connecting sleeve.
[0011] Preferably, fixing blocks are fixedly connected to both sides of the movable rod, and one side of each fixing block is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting frame. The fixing blocks thus connect and fix the movable rod to the mounting frame.
[0012] Preferably, a limiting rod is hinged to the bottom of the movable shell, and the other end of the limiting rod is hinged to one side of the mounting frame. The limiting rod effectively limits the mounting frame's movement during adjustment.
[0013] Preferably, two slides are symmetrically fixedly connected to one side of the mounting frame, two scales are symmetrically fixedly connected to one side of the mounting frame, two support plates are symmetrically slidably connected to one side of the slides, one side of the support plate is threadedly connected to one side of the observation cabinet, a measuring tube is provided at the bottom of the observation cabinet, a measuring scale is provided at the bottom of the observation cabinet on one side of the measuring tube, a vertical adjustment reference component is provided on one side of the mounting frame, and a horizontal adjustment reference component is provided on one side of the mounting frame. By using a slide block, scale, support plate, observation cabinet, measuring tube, measuring ruler, vertical adjustment reference components, and horizontal adjustment reference components, the distance between the two support plates is adjusted to a suitable level. The observation cabinet is then bolted to one side of the support plate. When the height of the observation cabinet needs to be adjusted, the bolts on the slide block are adjusted to move the observation cabinet up and down to the desired installation height. The observation cabinet support plate is then fixed to the slide rail lock using bolts. Simultaneously, the scale reading at the lower end of the observation cabinet is recorded for easy reference in recording the height adjustment of the observation cabinet. After differential calculation, it can be matched with the original installation height of the observation cabinet. Removing the bolts connecting the observation cabinet support plate and the slide rail allows for vertical adjustment of the observation cabinet support rod and the observation cabinet relative to the slide block to meet the measurement range requirements of the measuring tube.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] 1. By using a support rod, connecting rod, and connecting sleeve, when the positioning plate is installed on the wall or other positions by bolts, if the positioning plate tilts left or right, the connecting rod will be affected by gravity and drive the support rod to rotate. When the connecting rod rotates to a horizontal position, the support rod will also be horizontal, and at the same time, the mounting bracket will be kept horizontal. This adjustment method avoids the problem of conventional adjustment methods, which require multiple tightening of the inner and outer nuts of the double-nut expansion bolts to center the air bubble, which is cumbersome and inefficient.
[0016] 2. By using the movable shell and movable rod, when the mounting frame tilts forward or backward, the movable rod is located in the center of one side of the mounting frame. The movable rod drives the mounting frame to adjust its angle, so that the mounting frame always remains vertical. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] In practical implementation: such as Figure 1-4 As shown, an adjustment mechanism for a water pipe type settling device includes: a mounting frame 1 for supporting the settling device, with an observation cabinet 5 disposed on one side of the mounting frame 1; and an adjustment assembly 10, which includes a positioning plate 1001 disposed on one side of the mounting frame 1. A support rod 1003 is rotatably connected to the inner cavity of the positioning plate 1001, and a connecting rod 1004 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the support rod 1003. The other end of the support rod 1003 passes through the positioning plate 1001 and is fixedly connected to a connecting sleeve 1006. One end of the connecting sleeve 1006 is fixedly connected to a movable shell 1007, and a movable rod 1009 is movably connected to the inner cavity of the movable shell 1007 via a rotating shaft. One side of 009 is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting bracket 1. Mounting plates 1002 are fixedly connected to both sides of the positioning plate 1001. A counterweight 1005 is provided at the bottom of the connecting rod 1004. The counterweight 1005 is trapezoidal in shape. A positioning ring 1008 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the connecting sleeve 1006. One end of the positioning ring 1008 is fixedly connected to one side of the movable shell 1007. Fixing blocks 1010 are fixedly connected to both sides of the movable rod 1009. One side of the fixing block 1010 is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting bracket 1. A limiting rod 1011 is hinged to the bottom of the movable shell 1007. The other end of the limiting rod 1011 is hinged to one side of the mounting bracket 1.
[0024] like Figure 4As shown, two slides 2 are symmetrically fixedly connected to one side of the mounting bracket 1, two scales 3 are symmetrically fixedly connected to one side of the mounting bracket 1, two support plates 4 are symmetrically slidably connected to one side of the slides 2, one side of the support plate 4 is threadedly connected to one side of the observation cabinet 5, a measuring tube 6 is provided at the bottom of the observation cabinet 5, a measuring ruler 7 is provided at the bottom of the observation cabinet 5 on one side of the measuring tube 6, a vertical adjustment reference component 8 is provided on one side of the mounting bracket 1, and a horizontal adjustment reference component 9 is provided on one side of the mounting bracket 1.
[0025] The surface of the support plate 4 has threaded holes for installing the observation cabinet 5 and for fixing the support plate 4 itself. Bolts are connected to the internal threads of the threaded holes.
[0026] The observation cabinet 5, measuring tube 6, and measuring scale 7 protect the measuring tube 6 and other sensitive parts from external interference. The observation cabinet 5 is used to install the measuring tube 6, display the horizontal status, and make observations. When sedimentation occurs, the level of the liquid in the measuring tube 6 changes, which in turn affects the height of the bubble. The liquid level in the measuring tube 6 is read by the measuring scale 7, thereby calculating the difference in sedimentation height. It should be noted that the above-described devices are all relatively mature devices with existing technology. Specific models can be selected according to actual needs, and will not be elaborated here.
[0027] Firstly, when the positioning plate 1001 is installed on the wall or other location using bolts, if the positioning plate 1001 tilts left or right, the connecting rod 1004 will be affected by gravity, causing the support rod 1003 to rotate. When the connecting rod 1004 rotates to a horizontal position, the support rod 1003 will also be horizontal, simultaneously keeping the mounting frame 1 horizontal. When the mounting frame 1 tilts forward or backward, the movable rod 1009 is located in the center of one side of the mounting frame 1. The movable rod 1009 drives the mounting frame 1 to adjust its angle, ensuring that the mounting frame 1 always remains vertical without manual adjustment. When the mounting frame 1 tilts, it can be automatically adjusted to a horizontal or vertical position. Next, adjust the distance between the two support plates 4 to a suitable distance, and then install the observation cabinet 5 on one side of the support plate 4 with bolts. When it is necessary to adjust the height of the observation cabinet 5, adjust the bolts on the slide block 2 to move the observation cabinet 5 up and down to the desired installation height. Use bolts to fix the support plate 4 of the observation cabinet 5 to the slide rail lock of the slide block 2. At the same time, record the reading of the scale 3 corresponding to the lower end of the observation cabinet 5. It is convenient to refer to the scale 3 to record the lifting height of the observation cabinet 5. After the difference calculation, it can be connected with the installation height of the observation cabinet 5 before adjustment. Remove the bolts used to connect the observation cabinet 5 and the support plate 4, and then adjust the height of the support rod 1003 and the observation cabinet 5 to meet the range requirements of the measuring tube 6.
[0028] In use, when the positioning plate 1001 is installed on the wall or other location by bolts, if the positioning plate 1001 tilts left or right, the connecting rod 1004 will be affected by gravity, causing the support rod 1003 to rotate. When the connecting rod 1004 rotates to a horizontal position, the support rod 1003 will also be horizontal, simultaneously keeping the mounting frame 1 horizontal. If the mounting frame 1 tilts forward or backward, the movable rod 1009 is located in the center of one side of the mounting frame 1. The movable rod 1009 drives the mounting frame 1 to adjust its angle, ensuring that the mounting frame 1 remains vertical without manual adjustment. When the mounting frame 1 tilts, it can be automatically adjusted to be horizontal or... In the vertical position, adjust the distance between the two support plates 4 to a suitable distance, and then install the observation cabinet 5 on one side of the support plate 4 with bolts. When it is necessary to adjust the height of the observation cabinet 5, adjust the bolts on the slide block 2 to move the observation cabinet 5 up and down to the desired installation height. Use bolts to fix the support plate 4 of the observation cabinet 5 to the slide rail lock of the slide block 2. At the same time, record the reading of the scale 3 corresponding to the lower end of the observation cabinet 5 for easy reference to record the lifting height of the observation cabinet 5. After the difference calculation, it can be connected with the installation height of the observation cabinet 5 before adjustment. Remove the bolts used to connect the observation cabinet 5 and the support plate 4, and then adjust the height of the support rod 1003 and the observation cabinet 5 to meet the range requirements of the measuring tube 6.
[0029] It should be noted that the observation cabinet 5, measuring tube 6, vertical adjustment reference component 8, horizontal adjustment reference component 9 and counterweight 1005 mentioned above are all devices with relatively mature existing technology. The specific models can be selected according to actual needs, and will not be elaborated here.
[0030] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
