Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of liquid level monitoring technology, specifically relating to a liquid level monitoring device that is easy to observe. Background Technology
[0002] Liquid level monitoring devices are indispensable equipment in many fields such as industrial production, chemical experiments, and daily life. They can help users understand the amount of liquid stored in the container in real time, thereby ensuring the stability and safety of the production process. Existing liquid level monitoring devices usually include various types such as float type, ultrasonic type, capacitive type, and magnetic flip type. These devices meet users' needs for liquid level monitoring to a certain extent, but they have certain limitations when used at night or in environments with insufficient light.
[0003] Currently, while some liquid level monitoring devices on the market can provide basic liquid level information, they often lack the ability to observe in low-light environments. For example, traditional magnetic float level gauges are difficult to identify color changes of the float in low light conditions, while ultrasonic level gauges, although they can provide digital readings, require additional lighting equipment for observation at night.
[0004] Therefore, in view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model proposes a liquid level monitoring device that is easy to observe. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a liquid level monitoring device that is easy to observe and suitable for nighttime or low-light environments. It uses luminescent material so that the liquid level scale can be clearly seen in the dark.
[0006] The specific technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0007] A liquid level monitoring device that is easy to observe includes a water level pipe, wherein valves are installed at the top and bottom of the water level pipe, and an installation groove is provided inside the water level pipe;
[0008] An indicator structure is installed in the mounting groove, which is used to indicate the liquid level in the water level pipe.
[0009] The indicating structure includes a float disposed in the mounting groove, an indicating ring bar disposed on the outside of the float, and a scale disposed on the outside of the water level tube.
[0010] Multiple counterweight metal blocks are evenly distributed on the outer side of the bottom of the float.
[0011] An indicator line is provided at the center of the bottom of the float.
[0012] The float is fitted with a shell, which encloses the float and the plurality of counterweight metal blocks together.
[0013] The indicator ring is located in the middle of the float and near the top.
[0014] The outer side of the float is provided with multiple raised strips, and the inner shell is provided with multiple grooves corresponding to the raised strips.
[0015] The technical effects achieved by this utility model are as follows:
[0016] This invention is suitable for nighttime or low-light environments. It uses luminescent material, making the liquid level scale clearly visible in the dark, thus providing users with a more convenient and intuitive way to observe the liquid level. Users can easily observe the liquid level at night without additional lighting equipment, greatly improving the convenience and reliability of liquid level monitoring. Attached Figure Description

[0023] To make the objectives and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with embodiments. It should be understood that the following text is merely used to describe one or more specific embodiments of this utility model and does not strictly limit the scope of protection specifically claimed by this utility model.
[0024] like Figures 1-4As shown, the liquid level monitoring device that is easy to observe includes a water level tube 1, which is transparent so that people can easily observe the internal condition of the water level tube 1. Valves 2 are installed at the top and bottom of the water level tube 1. The valves 2 are used to receive water from the outside. An installation groove 9 is provided inside the water level tube 1.
[0025] An indicator structure is installed in the mounting slot 9, which is used to indicate the liquid level in the water level pipe 1.
[0026] See attached document Figures 3-4 The indicator structure includes a float 3 set in the mounting groove 9. The float 3 can be any object that can float on the water surface, such as rubber, foam, etc. An indicator ring strip 6 is provided on the outside of the float 3, and a scale 8 is provided on the outside of the water level pipe 1.
[0027] When the water is inside the installation tank 9, as the water rises, it causes the float 3 to rise as well, which in turn indicates the scale 8 on the water level tube 1 via the indicator ring 6, making it easy for people to check. Furthermore, the indicator ring 6 and the scale 8 can be made of a luminescent material, so that people can observe the water level inside the water level tube 1 even at night. Specifically, the indicator ring 6 and the scale 8 can be made of fluorescent or phosphorescent materials, etc.
[0028] See attached document Figure 4 Multiple counterweight metal blocks 4 are evenly arranged on the outer side of the bottom of the float 3. The counterweight metal blocks 4 can apply some weight to the bottom of the float 3, so that the float 3 is always in the position where the counterweight metal blocks 4 are located below, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the indicator ring 6. Furthermore, the indicator ring 6 is located in the middle of the float 3 and near the top. With this arrangement, when the counterweight metal blocks 4 apply a certain weight to the float 3, the buoyancy of the float 3 is reduced accordingly. When the indicator ring 6 is located near the upper layer of the float 3, the accuracy of the indicator ring 6 can be further guaranteed.
[0029] See attached document Figure 4 The float 3 is fitted with a shell 5 on its outer side, and the shell 5 encloses the float 3 and multiple counterweight metal blocks 4 together. The shell 5 ensures that the float 3 and the counterweight metal blocks 4 can be installed together and will not loosen after a short period of use. The shell 5 ensures the integrity of the float 3 and the counterweight metal blocks 4. The outer side of the float 3 is provided with multiple protrusions, and the inner side of the shell 5 is provided with multiple grooves corresponding to the protrusions. This design makes the installation effect of the shell 5 and the float 3 better and reduces the possibility of the float 3 and the shell 5 falling off.
[0030] See attached document Figure 4An indicator line 7 is provided at the center of the bottom of the float 3. When the water level pipe 1 is long and the water is relatively transparent, making it difficult for the user to observe the position of the float 3 in a short time, the indicator line 7 allows the user to look up along the indicator line 7 to observe the position of the float 3. The indicator line 7 can also be made of luminous material. Specifically, its material can refer to the material of the indicator ring 6 and the scale 8 mentioned above.
[0031] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. Structures, devices, and operating methods not specifically described or explained in this utility model, unless otherwise specified or limited, shall be implemented using conventional methods in the field.
