Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of instrument assembly technology, specifically a mounting bracket for an instrument that receives liquid in a water tank. Background Technology
[0002] Existing liquid-receiving instruments in water tanks are typically installed using either floating or rigid mounting. When floating, if an agitator is installed in the tank, the instrument can easily move with the water flow, or even be swept up by the rotating water flow to the agitator, causing damage to the instrument. If rigid mounting is used, when the liquid level changes, especially when the liquid level drops, the instrument probe can easily protrude from the water surface, making it impossible to monitor the required data. If the instrument is installed close to the bottom of the tank, the accumulated mud at the bottom can easily bury the instrument probe, which will also lead to abnormal instrument monitoring data. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a mounting bracket for liquid-receiving instruments in a water tank, which aims to solve the problem that the instruments in the prior art are not easy to automatically adjust with the water level, and are easily exposed or buried in the mud when the water level drops, affecting the instrument monitoring data.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a mounting bracket for a liquid-contacting instrument in a water tank, comprising an instrument disposed inside the water tank, the water tank comprising a tank wall and a tank bottom, a support frame fixedly disposed on the tank wall, a guide rail disposed vertically on the support frame, a cage for fixing the instrument slidably disposed on the guide rail, a lifting mechanism for lifting the cage disposed on the support frame, a buoyancy mechanism fixedly disposed on the cage, multiple sets of support rods fixedly connected to the bottom of the cage, a sliding plate disposed slidably disposed on the support rod, a buffer mechanism disposed between the support rod and the sliding plate, a pressure sensor disposed at the upper end of the sliding plate, and an alarm disposed on the support frame, wherein the pressure sensor is electrically connected to the alarm.
[0005] Preferably, the lifting mechanism includes a rope winding machine fixedly mounted on a support frame, on which a steel wire rope is wound up, and a connecting ring fixedly mounted on the cage body and connected to one end of the steel wire rope.
[0006] Preferably, a slider is fixedly provided on the cage body and slides in cooperation with the guide rail, and the cage body is slidably connected to the guide rail through the slider.
[0007] Preferably, the buoyancy mechanism includes multiple buoyancy rods fixed to the cage.
[0008] Preferably, the cage is provided with clamps for fixing the buoyancy rod.
[0009] Preferably, the skateboard has two inclined surfaces extending from the middle to both sides, and gradually decreasing in the direction of the base plate.
[0010] Preferably, the support frame is rotatably equipped with a guide roller on the side near the guide rail for supporting the wire rope.
[0011] Preferably, the cage is equipped with protective netting on all four sides.
[0012] Preferably, the buffer mechanism includes a spring coaxially sleeved on the support rod.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0014] In use, this invention adjusts the depth of the cage in the pool by using a lifting mechanism to adjust the length of the steel wire rope, thereby adjusting the installation position of the instrument. This prevents the instrument from being exposed above the water level or buried in the mud, which could lead to abnormal monitoring data. A buoyancy mechanism can also be fixed to the cage to keep it suspended above the water surface, ensuring the instrument remains below the water level. Guide rails allow for height adjustment of the cage while preventing it and the instrument from swaying with the water flow, thus avoiding damage from being swept into the agitator by the rotating water flow. A sliding plate with a pressure sensor is mounted on the support rod. As the cage descends with the water level, the sliding plate at the bottom contacts the mud, slowing its descent. As the cage continues to descend, the pressure sensor on the sliding plate approaches the bottom of the cage and makes direct contact, triggering an alarm. This alerts users to reel in the steel wire rope to raise the cage or add water as needed. This effectively solves the problem of mud burying the instrument probe, causing abnormal monitoring data.

[0023] To facilitate understanding of this utility model, a more detailed description is provided below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The accompanying drawings show preferred embodiments of this utility model. However, this utility model can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to provide a more thorough and complete understanding of the disclosure of this utility model.
[0024] It should be noted that, unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used in this specification have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used in this specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
[0025] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a mounting bracket for a liquid-contacting instrument 6 in a water tank includes the instrument 6 installed inside the water tank. The water tank includes a tank wall 1 and a tank bottom 22. A support frame 3 is fixedly installed on the tank wall 1. A guide rail 4 is vertically installed on the support frame 3. A cage 5 for fixing the instrument 6 is slidably installed on the guide rail 4. A lifting mechanism for lifting the cage 5 is installed on the support frame 3. A buoyancy mechanism is fixedly installed on the cage 5. Multiple sets of support rods 13 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the cage 5. A sliding plate 16 is slidably installed on the support rod 13. A buffer mechanism is installed between the support rod 13 and the sliding plate 16. A pressure sensor 17 is installed at the upper end of the sliding plate 16. An alarm 20 is installed on the support frame 3, and the pressure sensor 17 is electrically connected to the alarm 20.
[0026] In this embodiment, the depth of the cage 5 in the pool is adjusted by using a lifting mechanism to adjust the length of the wire rope 8, thereby adjusting the installation position of the instrument 6. This prevents the instrument 6 from being exposed above the water level or buried in the mud, which could cause abnormal monitoring data. Simultaneously, a buoyancy mechanism can be fixed to the cage 5, allowing it to float above the water surface, ensuring the instrument 6 remains below the water surface. By using guide rails 4, the height of the cage 5 can be adjusted, preventing the cage 5 and instrument 6 from swaying with the water flow and avoiding damage from being swept by the rotating water flow to the agitator. A sliding plate 16 is mounted on the support rod 13, and a pressure sensor 17 is mounted on the sliding plate 16. If the cage 5 moves down with the water level, the sliding plate 16 at the bottom of the cage 5 slows down after contacting the mud bottom. As the cage 5 continues to move down, the pressure sensor 17 on the sliding plate 16 gets closer to the bottom of the cage 5 and makes direct contact. Then, the alarm 20 will sound an alarm to remind people to raise the height of the cage 5 by winding the steel wire rope 8 using the rope winding machine 7 or to add water in time. This effectively solves the problem of the mud at the bottom of the pool 22 burying the probe of the instrument 6, causing abnormal monitoring data of the instrument 6.
[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, the lifting mechanism includes a rope winding machine 7 fixedly mounted on the support frame 3, on which a steel wire rope 8 is wound up, and a connecting ring fixedly mounted on the cage body 5 and connected to one end of the steel wire rope 8.
[0028] In this embodiment, the rope winding machine 7 includes a support frame, inside which a winding roller rotates. A motor is mounted on the support frame to drive the winding roller to rotate. The motor drives the winding roller to rotate and wind up or unwind the wire rope 8 to control the height of the cage 5. A first wire 14 is connected to the instrument 6 to supply power to the instrument 6. A second wire 18 is connected between the pressure sensor 17 and the alarm 20. When the pressure sensor 17 is compressed, an electrical signal is transmitted to the alarm 20 through the second wire 18 to trigger an alarm. Both the first wire 14 and the second wire 18 pass through the top of the cage 5 and are then tied to the wire rope 8 by a clamp 19.
[0029] like Figure 2 As shown, a slider 2 is fixedly installed on the cage 5 and slides with the guide rail 4. The cage 5 is slidably connected to the guide rail 4 through the slider 2.
[0030] In this embodiment, by setting a slider 2 that cooperates with the guide rail 4, the cage 5 can slide and reciprocate vertically along the guide rail 4.
[0031] like Figure 5 As shown, the buoyancy mechanism includes multiple buoyancy rods 9 fixed to the cage 5.
[0032] In this embodiment, the buoyancy rod 9 can be made of closed-cell polyethylene foam to improve buoyancy in water.
[0033] like Figure 5 As shown, the cage 5 is equipped with clamps 10 for fixing the buoyancy rod 9.
[0034] In this embodiment, the buoyancy rod 9 is fixed by setting a clamp 10.
[0035] like Figure 3 As shown, the skateboard 16 has two ramps extending from the middle to both sides, and gradually decreases towards the bottom plate.
[0036] In this embodiment, the ramp on the slide plate 16 allows the silt to slide off automatically, preventing excessive accumulation and increasing the weight of the slide plate 16.
[0037] like Figure 4 As shown, a guide roller 12 is rotatably mounted on the side of the support frame 3 near the guide rail 4 to support the wire rope 8.
[0038] In this embodiment, the guide roller 12 supports the wire rope 8 to prevent the wire rope 8 from breaking due to friction with other parts.
[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, protective netting 21 is installed on all four sides of the cage 5.
[0040] In this embodiment, a protective net 21 is provided to prevent large impurities from entering the cage 5, increasing the weight of the cage 5, and causing damage to the instrument 6.
[0041] like Figure 3 As shown, the buffer mechanism includes a spring 15 coaxially sleeved on the support rod 13.
[0042] In this embodiment, by setting a spring 15, the distance between the slide plate 16 and the bottom of the cage 5 is controlled. Only when the slide plate 16 is subjected to a pushing force can the pressure sensor 17 on the slide plate 16 contact the bottom of the cage 5, thus avoiding accidental activation of the pressure sensor 17.
[0043] Working principle: The mounting bracket for the instrument 6 mainly consists of a guide rail 4 and a cage 5. The instrument 6 is installed inside the cage 5. The guide rail 4 is installed in the pool by welding it to the support frame 3. A lifting ring 11 and a lifting wire rope 8 are set on the top of the cage 5. A slider 2 that cooperates with the guide rail 4 is set on the side. The cage 5 can be raised and lowered along the track by using the slider 2. The depth of the cage 5 in the pool is adjusted by adjusting the length of the wire rope 8, thereby adjusting the installation position of the instrument 6 and preventing the instrument 6 from being exposed above the water level or buried in the mud bottom, which would cause abnormal monitoring data. In another embodiment, multiple sets of buoyancy rods 9 can be fixedly set on the top of the cage 5. The buoyancy rods 9 can be made of closed-cell polyethylene foam to improve buoyancy in water. The cage 5 can be made of lightweight plastic to ensure that the buoyancy rods 9 can carry the cage 5 to float in the pool. The cage 5 is positioned above the water surface, ensuring that the instrument 6 remains below the water level. Simultaneously, the guide rail 4 allows for height adjustment of the cage 5 while preventing it and the instrument 6 from swaying with the water flow and being damaged by the rotating water current. As the water level gradually decreases, the cage 5 moves downwards. When silt accumulates at the bottom of the pool (22), the sliding plate 16 at the bottom of the cage 5 contacts the silt, slowing its descent. As the cage 5 continues to descend, the pressure sensor 17 on the sliding plate 16 approaches the bottom of the cage 5 and makes direct contact. This triggers an alarm 20, prompting the user to raise the cage 5 by winding the steel wire rope 8 using the rope reel 7 or to add water as needed. This effectively solves the problem of silt burying the instrument 6 probe at the bottom of the pool (22), causing abnormal monitoring data.
