[0021] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0022] Embodiment 1
[0023] Reference Figure 1 An ultrasonic liquid level measuring device resistant to water vapor interference includes a liquid level meter body 1 and a blow cover 2. The blow cover 2 is provided with a channel 211 for accommodating a probe of the liquid level meter body 1. The liquid level meter body 1 is connected to the blow cover 2 in a detachable manner through a fixing part 3. The top of the fixing part 3 is provided with an air hole 311 for connecting to an external air supply device. The blow cover 2 is further provided with a cavity 212 in communication with the air hole 311. The cavity 212 is used to guide the gas input from the air hole 311 to the channel 211 and output towards the bottom of the probe. The blow cover 2 is provided with a connecting part 221 for connecting to an external device to be measured.
[0024] In this design, the operator only needs to connect the liquid level meter body 1 to the blow cover 2 through the fixing part 3 to complete the assembly of the measuring device, and then connect the blow cover 2 to the external device to be measured to complete the installation of the measuring device. In an environment where water vapor needs to be removed, the operator connects an external air supply device to the air hole 311 through an air pipe and turns on the air supply device. The air supply device sends gas into the cavity 212 through the air hole 311, which is guided by the cavity 212 and output towards the bottom of the probe. Not only can the water droplets on the probe be blown away, but also the water vapor can be blown away to prevent the water vapor from affecting the measurement results. In an environment where water vapor does not need to be removed, the operator can block the air hole 311 with a blocking part.
[0025] In this way, not only can the problem of water vapor affecting the measurement results be solved, but also the structure is simple, the installation is fast and convenient, and no pipeline needs to be arranged. Especially in a sealed measurement environment, the pipeline is arranged outside the sealed environment to prevent water vapor or other corrosive substances from contacting the pipeline.
[0026] Further, the horizontal section of the chamber 212 is circular, and the gas outlet ends 2121 of the chamber 212 are arranged in a circumferential array around the probe of the liquid level meter body 1.
[0027] In actual use, by adopting the chamber 212 with a circular horizontal section and the circumferential array of the gas outlet ends 2121 around the probe, multi-angle blowing can be provided, and blind blowing area can be avoided, thereby ensuring the accuracy of measurement.
[0028] Preferably, the top of the chamber 212 is open, the top of the blowing cover 2 is provided with coaxially arranged first and second sealing assemblies 222 and 223, a sealing area is formed between the first and second sealing assemblies 222 and 223, and the inlet of the chamber 212 is located in the sealing area.
[0029] Specifically, by adopting the chamber 212 with an open top, alignment is not required when connecting the fixing member 3 and the blowing cover 2. As long as the fixing member 3 and the blowing cover 2 are assembled, the vent hole 311 and the chamber 212 are automatically connected; and the first and second sealing assemblies 222 and 223 can prevent gas leakage.
[0030] In this embodiment, the fixing member 3 includes a connecting plate 31 connected to the liquid level meter body 1, a connecting column 32 located on the connecting plate 31, and the vent hole 311 vertically arranged on the connecting plate 31. The outer diameter of the connecting column 32 matches the channel 211, and the connecting plate 31 is detachably connected to the blowing cover 2.
[0031] During installation, the connecting column 32 can provide a positioning function for the connecting plate 31 and the blowing cover 2. Specifically, after the connecting column 32 is inserted into the channel 211, the vent hole 311 is aligned with the chamber 212.
[0032] In the preferred embodiment, the connecting plate 31 and the blowing cover 2 are connected by bolts and nuts.
[0033] In other embodiments, the connecting plate 31 and the blowing cover 2 are connected by threads.
[0034] Both methods can achieve detachable connection, and the operator can choose to use the first or second method or other methods according to actual conditions.
[0035] Preferably, the blowing cover 2 includes a cover body 21 and a circular plate 22 connected to the cover body 21, and the fixing member 3 is detachably connected to the circular plate 22. The channel 211 and the chamber 212 are located in the cover body 21, and the connecting portion 221 is located on the circular plate 22.
[0036] In the preferred embodiment, the circular plate 22 matches the flange of the to-be-tested device of the external equipment, so the connection between the circular plate 22 and the to-be-tested device can be understood as the connection of the flange, which is very simple to install and disassemble and has good stability. By arranging the connection points of the fixing member 3, the blow cover 2 and the to-be-tested device of the external equipment on the circular plate 22, the installation and docking of various components become more simple and efficient, and the number of components can be reduced.
[0037] Preferably, the cover body 21 and the circular plate 22 are integrally formed. The integral forming eliminates the connection points and interfaces of the cover body 21 and the circular plate 22, reduces the potential risks of looseness, water leakage and failure, and makes the overall structure more reliable.
[0038] Although the embodiments of the utility model have been shown and described, those skilled in the art can understand that various changes, modifications, replacements and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and purposes of the utility model, and the scope of the utility model is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
