[0026] 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.

[0027] Please see Figures 1-5 The present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0028] A pulp viscosity regulator includes a regulating tank 1, a feed inlet 2 fixedly connected to the top of the regulating tank 1, a temperature regulating mechanism 3 fixedly connected to the top of the inner side of the regulating tank 1, a viscosity measuring mechanism 4 rotatably connected to the bottom of the inner side of the regulating tank 1, a discharge port 5 opened at the bottom of the regulating tank 1, an opening and closing valve 6 fixedly connected to the bottom of the discharge port 5, and a discharge pipe 7 fixedly connected to the bottom of the opening and closing valve 6.

[0029] The temperature control mechanism 3 includes a storage tray 31, several limiting holes 32, several heating tubes 33, a discharge port 34, and a temperature sensor 35. The storage tray 31 is fixedly connected to the top of the inner side of the regulating tank 1. Several limiting holes 32 are opened on the inner wall of the storage tray 31. The heating tubes 33 are fixedly connected to the inner side of the limiting holes 32. The discharge port 34 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the storage tray 31. The temperature sensor 35 is fixedly connected to the right side of the inner side of the discharge port 34. The right side of the temperature sensor 35 passes through the regulating tank 1 and is fixedly connected to the regulating tank 1.

[0030] In this embodiment: By setting the regulating tank 1 as the main container of the entire pulp viscosity regulator, the regulating tank 1 provides a relatively closed and integrated space for pulp processing. It houses key components such as the temperature control mechanism 3 and the viscosity measurement mechanism 4, allowing the pulp to undergo a series of operations such as temperature regulation, viscosity measurement and adjustment sequentially within the tank. This avoids problems such as pulp loss, temperature fluctuations, and operational inconvenience that may occur when transferring pulp between different devices, effectively ensuring the continuity and stability of the pulp processing flow, and helping to improve production efficiency and product quality. The feed inlet 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the regulating tank 1, and its position is designed to facilitate the smooth entry of pulp into the regulating tank 1 for subsequent processing. Through reasonable connection with external conveying equipment, it can... Precise control of the pulp feed rate ensures that the amount of pulp entering the regulating tank 1 meets the production process requirements. The discharge port 5 is located at the bottom of the regulating tank 1, its position designed to facilitate the smooth discharge of pulp after a series of processes including temperature regulation, viscosity measurement, and adjustment. The on / off valve 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the discharge port 5, providing flexible control over pulp discharge. By opening or closing it, the flow rate and whether pulp is discharged from the discharge port 5 can be precisely controlled. The discharge pipe 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the on / off valve 6, providing a safe and stable conveying channel for the pulp discharged from the valve. The storage pan 31 is fixedly connected to the top of the inner side of the regulating tank 1, serving to temporarily store the pulp and assist in heating. Its structural design ensures that the pulp... After entering the regulating tank 1, the pulp first accumulates in the storage pan 31, laying the foundation for subsequent uniform heating. Several limiting holes 32 are formed on the inner wall of the storage pan 31 to house the heating tubes 33. This layout allows the heating tubes 33 to be evenly distributed around the storage pan 31, thereby achieving all-round and uniform heating of the pulp in the storage pan 31. This avoids local overheating or undercooling, ensuring uniform temperature changes of the pulp during the heating process. This helps stabilize the physicochemical properties of the pulp, such as maintaining suitable viscosity and fiber state, providing stable pulp raw materials for subsequent papermaking. The heating tubes 33, as the heating source, are fixedly connected to the inside of the limiting holes 32, converting electrical energy into heat energy and transferring it to the surrounding pulp, ensuring stable heating. The function can precisely adjust the pulp temperature to a suitable range according to production needs, meeting the requirements of different papermaking processes for pulp temperature, thereby affecting key performance indicators such as pulp viscosity, ensuring the consistency and stability of paper quality. The discharge port 34 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the storage pan 31, allowing the uniformly heated pulp to flow smoothly from the storage pan 31 into other areas of the regulating tank 1 for subsequent processing. At the same time, the presence of the discharge port 34 also helps to maintain a stable pulp level in the storage pan 31, avoiding the impact of excessively high or low liquid levels on the heating effect and the flow state of the pulp. The temperature sensor 35 is fixedly connected to the right side inside the discharge port 34, which can monitor the temperature of the pulp in real time as it is about to flow out of the storage pan 31. Based on this real-time temperature feedback,Operators or the automated control system can adjust parameters such as the heating power of the heating element 33 in a timely manner to achieve dynamic and precise control of the pulp temperature. This ensures that the pulp temperature remains at a suitable level throughout the regulating tank 1, effectively preventing problems such as excessive changes in pulp viscosity and abnormal chemical reactions caused by temperature fluctuations. This, in turn, guarantees the smooth operation of the production process and improves product quality.

[0031] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, the viscosity measuring mechanism 4 includes a servo motor 41, a water wheel 42, a torque sensor 43, a microcontroller 44, a feeding pipe 45, a solenoid valve 46, and a storage tank 47. The servo motor 41 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the right side surface of the regulating tank 1.

[0032] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, the water wheel 42 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the inner side of the regulating tank 1. The right side of the water wheel 42 passes through the regulating tank 1 and is fixedly connected to the left side of the servo motor 41. The torque sensor 43 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the left side surface of the regulating tank 1. The left side of the water wheel 42 passes through the regulating tank 1 and is fixedly connected to the left side of the torque sensor 43.

[0033] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, the microcontroller 44 is fixedly connected to the surface on the left side of the regulating tank 1, the right side of the feeding pipe 45 is fixedly connected to the left side of the inner side of the storage tray 31, the left side of the feeding pipe 45 passes through the regulating tank 1 and is fixedly connected to the regulating tank 1, the solenoid valve 46 is fixedly connected to the top of the left side of the feeding pipe 45, and the storage tank 47 is fixedly connected to the top of the solenoid valve 46.

[0034] In this embodiment: By fixing a servo motor 41 to the bottom of the right side surface of the regulating tank 1 as the power source for driving the water wheel 42 to rotate, it can provide a stable and precisely controllable rotation speed. This allows the water wheel 42 to rotate at a constant speed in the pulp, creating favorable conditions for accurately measuring the pulp viscosity. The stable rotation speed ensures that the viscous resistance generated by the pulp on the water wheel 42 is relatively stable, thereby enabling the torque value to be accurately measured by the subsequent torque sensor 43, and then the accurate pulp viscosity value to be calculated. This achieves high-precision measurement of pulp viscosity. When the water wheel 42 rotates in the pulp, the viscous resistance generated by the pulp on it is transmitted to the torque sensor 43 through the rotating shaft, converting the viscosity characteristics of the pulp into... The torque sensor 43, fixedly connected to the bottom of the left side surface of the regulating tank 1, provides a reliable physical basis for accurately measuring the torque value corresponding to the viscous resistance experienced by the water wheel 42 as it rotates in the pulp. Based on physical principles, the viscosity of the pulp can be accurately calculated from this torque value, achieving high-precision measurement of pulp viscosity. Furthermore, the presence of the torque sensor 43 makes the measurement results quantifiable and accurate, providing a crucial basis for subsequent judgment on whether the pulp viscosity meets production requirements and for taking corresponding adjustment measures. The microcontroller 44 can receive the torque data transmitted from the torque sensor 43 and perform further analysis and processing, eliminating one... External factors such as minor fluctuations in motor rotation and environmental vibrations can affect the measurement results. The microcontroller 44 can more accurately determine the pulp viscosity value. Simultaneously, according to a preset program, the microcontroller 44 can control the opening and closing of the solenoid valve 46 when the pulp viscosity deviates from the appropriate range, allowing chemical additives to enter the inner side of the storage pan 31. This facilitates convenient adjustment of the pulp viscosity, ensuring it remains within the range suitable for the production process requirements, thus improving production efficiency and product quality. The feeding pipe 45 provides a channel for chemical additives to enter the regulating tank 1 from the storage tank 47, ensuring that the chemical additives are accurately added to the area in the regulating tank 1 where viscosity adjustment is needed, and thoroughly mixed with the pulp, thereby effectively regulating the viscosity. The viscosity of the pulp is controlled by the opening and closing of the solenoid valve 46 under the control of the microcontroller 44, thereby precisely controlling the amount of chemical additives added from the storage tank 47 to the regulating tank 1 through the feeding pipe 45. Through this precise control method, the viscosity of the pulp can be adjusted in a timely manner according to the actual situation of the pulp viscosity, so as to bring it back to a suitable range, optimize the production process, improve production efficiency, and ensure product quality. The storage tank 47 is used to store the chemical additives required for adjusting the pulp viscosity. Its existence ensures the stability and continuity of the supply of chemical additives, ensuring that sufficient chemical additives can be provided in a timely manner when it is necessary to adjust the pulp viscosity, meeting the needs of pulp viscosity adjustment in the production process, and ensuring the smooth progress of the entire pulp viscosity adjustment process.

[0035] Specifically, such as Figure 4As shown, a protective shell 8 is fixedly connected to the surface of the microcontroller 44, and the surface of the protective shell 8 is coated with an anti-corrosion coating.

[0036] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, the top of the storage tank 47 is rotatably connected to a twist cover 9, and the surface of the twist cover 9 is engraved with anti-slip texture.

[0037] In this embodiment: the protective shell 8 provides physical protection for the microcontroller 44, preventing it from being mechanically damaged by collisions or squeezing from external objects. The anti-corrosion coating effectively resists the corrosion of the microcontroller 44 by corrosive substances that may exist in the pulp processing environment, such as volatile chemical additives and moisture generated in humid environments. The twist cap 9 makes opening and closing the storage tank 47 more convenient and quick. When chemical additives need to be added to the storage tank 47, the twist cap 9 can be easily rotated to open it. After adding, it can be quickly tightened to close it, ensuring the airtightness of the storage tank 47. The anti-slip texture further enhances the friction between the operator's hand and the twist cap 9 when opening and closing, preventing hand slippage, improving the convenience and safety of operation, ensuring the stability of the storage environment of chemical additives in the storage tank 47, and preventing chemical additives from affecting the pulp viscosity adjustment effect due to leakage or volatilization.

[0038] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, the bottom of the storage tray 31 is cone-shaped, and the discharge port 34 is located at the lowest point of the bottom of the storage tray 31.

[0039] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, an observation window 10 is provided on the front side of the regulating tank 1, and the surface of the observation window 10 is coated with an anti-fog coating.

[0040] In this embodiment: By setting the bottom of the storage pan 31 to be conical, the conical bottom design allows the pulp in the storage pan 31 to flow naturally and smoothly towards the discharge port 34 at the bottom under its own gravity, avoiding local accumulation or stagnation of pulp at the bottom of the pan. This ensures that the pulp can flow to the discharge port 34 at a relatively uniform speed and flow rate, thereby achieving a smooth transition of pulp from the storage pan 31 to the next stage. This effectively prevents problems such as blockage caused by poor pulp flow, ensuring the continuity and efficiency of the entire pulp processing process. By setting the discharge port 34 at the lowest point of the bottom of the storage pan 31, this position allows the liquid level of the pulp in the storage pan 31 to be controlled more intuitively and accurately. The flow rate of pulp entering the storage pan 31 from the feed inlet 2 and the outflow velocity of pulp at the discharge port 34 can accurately maintain the pulp level in the storage pan 31 at a suitable height. By setting up the observation window 10, operators are provided with a window to directly observe the state of the pulp inside the regulating tank 1. Operators can use the observation window 10 to view the pulp level, color, flow status, etc. in real time, and promptly identify any potential problems so that corresponding measures can be taken to deal with them. By setting up an anti-fog coating, fogging on the surface of the observation window 10 is effectively prevented from affecting the observation effect in a humid environment. Through this clear observation, operators can better grasp the state of the pulp in the regulating tank 1, ensuring the smooth progress of the entire pulp viscosity adjustment process and the control of product quality.

[0041] Working principle: First, the user feeds pulp into the regulating tank 1 through the feed inlet 2, which is connected to the external conveying system. The feed inlet 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the regulating tank 1. Its position and connection method ensure that the pulp flows smoothly and stably into the regulating tank 1, providing pulp raw materials for subsequent processing operations. Under its own gravity, the pulp entering the regulating tank 1 flows through the discharge port 34 at the bottom of the storage pan 31 of the temperature regulating mechanism 3 into the area where the viscosity measuring mechanism 4 is located at the bottom of the inner side of the regulating tank 1. During this process, the storage pan 31 temporarily stores the pulp and assists in subsequent processing. The user then powers on and starts the servo motor 41, which drives the water wheel 42 to rotate. As the water wheel 42 rotates in the pulp, the pulp generates viscous resistance. The water wheel 42 transmits this torque force to the torque sensor 43 via its rotating shaft. The torque sensor 43 measures the torque value corresponding to the viscous resistance experienced by the water wheel 42. Based on physical principles, this torque value can be accurately converted into the pulp viscosity, thus achieving pulp viscosity measurement. The microcontroller 44 receives the viscosity value from the torque sensor 43... The microcontroller 44 uses temperature measurement data and temperature data transmitted by temperature sensor 35 to comprehensively control and regulate the state of the pulp in regulating tank 1. When the temperature is too low, the microcontroller 44 determines, based on the data fed back by temperature sensor 35, that the pulp temperature has not reached the appropriate range, and then controls the heating tube 33 to start. The heating tube 33, as a heat source, can convert electrical energy into heat energy and transfer it to the surrounding pulp, heating the pulp passing through storage pan 31 to raise its temperature to the range required by the production process. This process is also used when the pulp is too viscous or when the pulp viscosity deviates from the preset appropriate range. When the pulp viscosity is within the range required by the production process, the microcontroller 44 opens the solenoid valve 46. After the solenoid valve 46 is opened, the chemical additives for adjusting the pulp viscosity stored inside the storage tank 47 are added to the inside of the storage tray 31 through the feeding pipe 45, and are fully mixed with the pulp, thereby effectively adjusting the pulp viscosity and bringing it back to the appropriate range. Finally, after a series of processes such as temperature adjustment, viscosity measurement and adjustment, the pulp is discharged through the discharge port 5 opened at the bottom of the regulating tank 1, and the pulp can enter the next production stage in an orderly manner according to the production process requirements.

[0042] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
