DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0033] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all the embodiments.

[0034] Refer to Figures 1-6 A fertilizer slurry viscosity testing device, including circular base 1, the upper side of circular base 1 is provided with stand 2, stand 2 is provided with extension arm 3 slidingly, the inner end of extension arm 3 is fixedly connected with funnel 4.

[0035] In use, appropriate fertilizer slurry to be detected is added into funnel 4; it falls downwards on circular base 1 and gradually solidifies; after solidification, its height is measured to detect its viscosity.

[0036] It can be understood that the greater the viscosity of the fertilizer slurry, the smaller the spreading range, and the greater the height after solidification; according to our experience, the fertilizer slurry is solidified after about 1 min; taking 100g slurry as an example, the height after solidification is in the range of 2-10mm.

[0037] To further standardize data, the height difference between the lowermost end of funnel 4 and the panel of circular base 1 is 6cm, and the outlet diameter of funnel is 1.8cm.

[0038] In addition, the lower part of circular base 1 is provided with heating assembly 5; to heat the material receiving area above circular base 1, so that it is kept in a constant temperature range, to avoid test errors caused by temperature.

[0039] According to actual experience, the heating temperature range is required to be 20-50 DEG C; preferably, the normal temperature is controlled at 25 DEG C.

[0040] In addition, a thickness gauge 6 is slidably mounted on column 2 for easy measurement.

[0041] Understandably, column 2 is also equipped with scale lines corresponding to the thickness gauge.

[0042] It should be noted that the thickness gauge 6 is swivelable; normally it can be placed to one side without affecting material feeding; after the slurry solidifies, it can be rotated to measure the thickness of the slurry.

[0043] Understandably, other forms of measurement can also be used; for example, independently set tools and components such as rulers and vernier calipers.

[0044] Additionally, our company's testing rules for a specific formula are as follows:

[0045] Under the conditions of heating to 25℃, using 100g of slurry, and allowing it to stand for 1 minute to solidify:

[0046] If the thickness in the middle is greater than 7.5mm, it is too viscous and unsuitable; if the thickness in the middle is less than 4.5mm, it is too thin and unsuitable; the suitable range is 4.5~7.5mm.

[0047] It is understandable that in specific experiments, the height standard is adaptively selected based on different formulas, environments, etc.

[0048] In some embodiments, one end of the extension arm 3 is fixedly provided with a collar 31 that slides with the column 2 to facilitate height adjustment.

[0049] It should be noted that the standard height is controlled during routine testing (e.g., the height difference mentioned above is 6cm); it can be adjusted in different tests to obtain richer parameters and to adapt to different raw materials, formulas, environments, etc.

[0050] Specifically, the collar 31 is fixed to the end of the extension arm 3 and slides on the column 2.

[0051] In addition, in order to precisely limit the position of the funnel 4, a limiting groove 21 is vertically opened on the column 2, and a corresponding protrusion is provided on the inner side of the collar 31; thus, in the installed state, the central axis of the funnel 4 corresponds to the central axis of the circular base 1 through the cooperation of the protrusion and the limiting groove 21, so that the center point of the fall is constant.

[0052] In some embodiments, a positioning ring 7 is also slidably disposed on the column 2; the positioning ring 7 supports the extension arm 3.

[0053] like Figures 1-4 As shown; after the position of the positioning ring 7 is fixed, the collar 31 is supported and limited to control the height of the funnel 4.

[0054] It can be understood that the outer side of the positioning ring 7 is threadedly connected with an adjustable jacking screw to move and fix the positioning ring 7.

[0055] In addition, in this state, the funnel 4 can be conveniently removed together with the extension arm 3 and the sleeve ring 31, and the cleaning and maintenance operations can be conveniently performed; that is, after use, it is directly pulled up.

[0056] In some embodiments, the outer end of the thickness ruler 6 is fixedly connected with a rotating drum 61 sleeved on the stand 2 to facilitate the rotation of the thickness ruler 6.

[0057] Further, the inner end of the thickness ruler 6 is provided with a pressing plate 62.

[0058] As shown in Figure 3 , 5 , the additional pressing plate 62 has a larger pressing surface, and the measurement is more convenient.

[0059] In some embodiments, a recess is formed in the upper center position of the circular base 1, and a material receiving circular plate 8 is placed in the recess.

[0060] As shown in Figure 4 , the material receiving circular plate 8 can be taken out and placed, and the cleaning and maintenance operations can be conveniently performed.

[0061] It can be understood that the material receiving circular plate 8 coincides with the central axis of the circular base 1, and the slurry falls in the center position of the material receiving circular plate 8.

[0062] It should be noted that the material receiving circular plate 8 and the circular base 1 are made of stainless steel to facilitate heat transfer and ensure good strength and corrosion resistance.

[0063] In some embodiments, the material receiving circular plate 8 is provided with multiple layers of semicircular scale lines, so that the current slurry spreading surface can be conveniently viewed.

[0064] In some embodiments, the heating assembly 5 includes a heating plate 51 arranged below the circular base 1 and a temperature control button 52 arranged above the circular base 1, and the temperature is adjusted through the temperature control button 52.

[0065] Preferably, as shown in Figure 5 , the heating plate 51 is arranged in the form of a circular plate and is embedded and installed.

[0066] The heating plate 51 can be in the form of an electric ceramic plate with an embedded electric heating wire.

[0067] In some embodiments, the funnel 4 is provided with a discharge pipe 41 below, which is more convenient for controlling the discharge.

[0068] Further, a valve is arranged on the discharge pipe 41; so as to open the valve after placing the appropriate amount of slurry, and then discharge.

[0069] The utility model uses, through simulating the free fall of slurry from top to bottom and the diffusion after discharging, detecting the middle thickness of slurry spreading form under the component 6 etc.
