[0003] Chinese Patent No. CN203329391 U discloses an analytical tower with a self-cleaning device for measuring instruments. The tower includes a tower body, on which an instrument tube with a level gauge is inserted is provided. A high-pressure air duct is connected to the wall of the instrument tube.

Any numerical designations such as "first" or "second" are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way.
[0029] Example: A level measuring instrument for a desorption tower, combined with Figures 1-3 The system includes: an installation pipe 2 fixedly installed on the top of the analytical tower 1, which is connected to the analytical tower 1; an inlet 3 fixedly installed on the top of the installation pipe 2; an insertable measuring instrument 4 placed on the inlet 3, which is stably supported by the inlet 3, allowing the measuring instrument 4 to be freely removed and placed from the installation pipe 2, and to be inserted into the analytical tower 1 through the installation pipe 2 to measure the level of matter in the analytical tower 1; an installation port 5 fixedly installed on the side of the installation pipe 2, which is used to connect to a high-pressure blower, through which the high-pressure blower blows high-pressure air into the installation pipe 2; an annular cavity 6 is provided in the side wall of the installation pipe 2, which is inclined and has a cross-sectional area at the top that is larger than that at the bottom. The installation port 5 is connected to the annular cavity 6, and the blown high-pressure air will be guided by the annular cavity 6; and an outlet 7 is provided at the bottom of the annular cavity 6 where it passes through the installation pipe 2, with the outlet 7 facing the measuring instrument 4.
[0030] Before removing the measuring instrument 4 to obtain data, fix the high-pressure blower at the mounting port 5, start the high-pressure blower, and blow high-pressure air into the mounting pipe 2. Under the guidance of the annular cavity 6, the high-pressure air blows in a ring shape towards the measuring instrument 4, so that the measuring instrument 4 can be cleaned evenly and thoroughly by the high-pressure air. The difference in cross-sectional area between the upper and lower parts of the annular cavity 6 allows the annular cavity 6 to pressurize and accelerate the high-pressure air, improving the cleaning quality and efficiency of the measuring instrument 4. After cleaning is completed, remove the measuring instrument 4 upwards to obtain data. Finally, disconnect the high-pressure blower from the mounting port 5.

[0032] Before cleaning the measuring instrument 4, start the motor 9 and rotate the lead screw 10 to remove the two retaining rings 11 from the outlet 7 and open the annular cavity 6. After cleaning the measuring instrument 4, reverse the lead screw 10 to reseal the outlet 7 with the retaining rings 11 and protect the annular cavity 6 to prevent it from being blocked by the material in the analytical tower 1, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the annular cavity 6.
[0033] Combination Figure 2 It also includes: a telescopic sleeve 13 fitted outside the lead screw 10. One end of the telescopic sleeve 13 is fixed to the retaining ring 11, and the other end is fixed to the mounting plate 8. The telescopic sleeve 13 is used to protect the lead screw 10 and prevent materials from adhering to the lead screw 10 and affecting the movement of the retaining ring 11.
[0034] Combination Figure 2 It also includes: a rubber ring 14 fixedly installed on the retaining ring 11, the rubber ring 14 being used to seal the gap between the retaining ring 11 and the outlet 7, so as to improve the sealing effect of the retaining ring 11 on the outlet 7.
