[0027] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative efforts fall within the scope of the present utility model. The present utility model will be further described in combination with the drawings and embodiments.

[0028] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , an aviation fuel oil sampling device comprises a sampling bottle 1, further comprises a flow pipe 2, an external thread 3, a connecting rod 5, a mounting seat 6, a mounting box 7, a miniature electric push rod, a circular table 8 and a top rod 9,

[0029] One end of the flow pipe 2 is threadedly connected with the bottle mouth of the sampling bottle 1, and a plurality of circles of external threads 3 are arranged on the outer wall of the other end of the flow pipe 2;

[0030] The connecting rod 5 is symmetrically arranged in the upper region inside the flow pipe 2;

[0031] The mounting seat 6 is arranged between the two connecting rods 5, and the center of the mounting seat 6 is on the same straight line as the center of the flow pipe 2;

[0032] The mounting box 7 is arranged at the bottom of the mounting seat 6, and the miniature electric push rod is arranged inside the mounting box 7;

[0033] The bottom center of the circular table 8 is connected with the miniature electric push rod;

[0034] The top rod 9 is arranged on the circular table 8, and the end surface center of the top rod 9 is on the same straight line as the center of the flow pipe 2.

[0035] Further refinement of the embodiment scheme of the present utility model is shown in Figure 2 One end of the top rod 9 is provided with a rubber block 10.

[0036] Further refinement of the embodiment scheme of the present utility model is shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 An annular sealing plate 4 is arranged below the external threads 3 on the outer wall of the flow pipe 2, the annular sealing plate 4 is provided with a sealing rubber ring consistent in size, and the sealing rubber ring is not shown in the figure.

[0037] Further optimization of the embodiment scheme of the present utility model is that the direction of the external threads 3 is opposite to the direction of the outer circle threads of the bottle mouth of the sampling bottle 1.

[0038] It should be noted that the miniature electric push rod is electrically connected with a controller, and the controller is not shown in the figure.

[0039] The working process of the present utility model is:

[0040] First, connect the mouth of the sampling bottle 1 to the lower end of the flow tube 2 by thread. After the sampling bottle 1 and the flow tube 2 are installed, align the external thread 3 with the oil drain port of the aircraft body and screw it in. The oil drain port of the aircraft body has internal threads and a one-way valve, which is existing technology and will not be improved. Then the connection and fixation between this device and the oil drain port of the aircraft body can be achieved. After the internal thread of the oil drain port and the external thread 3 of the flow tube 2 are engaged, the sealing rubber ring can contact the surface of the aircraft body near the oil drain port, thereby improving the sealing effect after installation.

[0041] In the initial state, the controller controls the miniature electric push rod to retract, so that the push rod 9 is inside the flow tube 2 (as per the instruction manual). Figure 2 As shown in the diagram, once the device is installed, the controller will control the micro electric push rod to extend a pre-set distance. At this time, the push rod 9 will rise vertically and open the one-way valve in the oil outlet. The rubber block 10 is placed in contact with the one-way valve to reduce wear on the one-way valve. Then the aviation fuel oil can flow out. When the fuel oil flows to the truncated cone 8, it will then spread out in all directions and finally leave from the bottom outer edge of the truncated cone 8. Finally, the fuel oil is injected into the sampling bottle 1 through the flow pipe 2 to start the aviation fuel oil sampling process.

[0042] Staff can monitor the collection of aviation fuel oil in the transparent sampling bottle 1 in real time. Once enough aviation fuel oil has been sampled, staff will control the micro electric push rod to retract to its initial state via the controller. At this time, the one-way valve in the drain port will close. After the fuel oil that has flowed out has completely entered the sampling bottle 1, the sampling bottle 1 can be removed by thread for subsequent aviation fuel oil quality inspection. It should be noted that the direction of disassembly and tightening of the flow tube 2 is opposite to that of disassembly and tightening of the sampling bottle 1, so that the flow tube 2 and the drain port will not become loose during the disassembly of the sampling bottle 1.

[0043] Compared to existing technologies, this device can automatically complete the sampling process immediately after completing the threaded connection with the aircraft's fuel drain port. After sampling, the sampling bottle 1 can be unscrewed separately for subsequent quality inspection. The entire aviation fuel sampling process does not require manual handling of the device, thus improving sampling convenience and optimizing the process.

[0044] In some embodiments, the connecting rod 5 has several through holes and several reinforcing ribs that are staggered with the through holes at the bottom of the connecting rod 5. This embodiment is not shown in the figure. This embodiment can reduce the amount of fuel oil remaining on the connecting rod 5 by opening through holes, and on this basis, the reinforcing ribs ensure the load-bearing strength of the connecting rod 5.

[0045] The basic principle, main features and advantages of the present application are shown and described above. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present application is not limited by the above embodiments, and the above embodiments and descriptions in the specification are only to illustrate the principles of the present application. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application, various changes and improvements can be made to the present application, and these changes and improvements all fall within the scope of the present application. The scope of protection of the present application is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
