[0039] Furthermore, in the description of this application, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used only to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0040] like Figures 1-2 As shown, it illustrates an embodiment of the present disclosure of an immersion liquid density detection device for use in liquid detection. It includes a main body 1 with a detection area 101, a communication port 102 on the main body 1, a pressure sensor 2 and a float 3 both disposed in the detection area 101 and connected to each other, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the float 3 gradually increases from top to bottom.

[0041] The present disclosure improves the shape of the float body 3, so that the side wall has an inclined surface, which facilitates detection. When the suspended particles in the ore pulp fall on the float body 3, they do not stay on the float body 3 all the time, but slide down along the side wall.

[0042] For the shape of the float body 3, for example, the cross-sectional area of the conical or circular truncated cone shape gradually increases from top to bottom, the side wall can form a sliding inclined surface, and the liquid can maintain good stability. For the circular truncated cone shape, the top is further changed to a hemispherical shape to avoid providing a retention position for suspended particles. Further, the float body 3 is preferably hollow, which saves cost and reduces weight, and is relatively easy to operate in manufacturing and installation.

[0043] The detection process of the submerged liquid density detection device of the present disclosure is as follows:

[0044] After the device is assembled, it is first completely submerged in water for calibration. At this time, the float body 3 is subjected to its own downward force F1, upward buoyancy F2, and downward pressure F3 from the pressure sensor 2. According to the action and reaction, the size of F3 is the detection value of the pressure sensor 2. The static object is in force balance, satisfying the formula: F2=F1+F3. F1 and F3 are known, and the value of F2 can be calculated. According to the Archimedes principle F 浮 =ρ 液 *g*V 排 Therefore, the calibrated V 排 , i.e. the volume of the displaced liquid, can be calculated.

[0045] After calibration, the V 排 of the submerged liquid density detection device when it completely invades the liquid inside can be known. Then, the device is put into an unknown liquid, and the measurement value F3 of the pressure sensor 2 is read to calculate F2. According to the Archimedes principle F 浮 =ρ 液 *g*V 排 The density value of the liquid can be calculated. Even if the detected liquid fluctuates in density due to some reasons, the submerged liquid density detection device can still continuously detect the density of the unknown liquid without adjustment.

[0046] The main body 1 needs to have good corrosion resistance and sealing performance. Stainless steel or lightweight aluminum alloy can be used, which can effectively resist the corrosion of the ore pulp, reduce the installation difficulty, and the size of the communication port 102 on the main body 1 is determined according to the actual liquid flow and detection accuracy requirements. Generally, the communication port 102 should not be too large or too small, so as not to cause large fluctuations in the pressure in the detection area 101 due to the too fast flow of the liquid, or the liquid flow is not smooth.

[0047] When the components are assembled, the cylindrical or square cylindrical main body 1 as the protective shell is used to install the pressure sensor 2 on the top wall or side wall inside the main body 1 through a gasket and a bolt, and then the float body 3 and the pressure sensor 2 are connected, which can be completed by using a bolt or a clamping type. It is worth considering that, in order to ensure that the pressure sensor 2 can detect the pressure change on the float body 3 as accurately as possible, the weight of the float body 3 should be appropriate. If the weight is too heavy, it may exceed the detection range of the pressure sensor 2. If the weight is too light, the response of the pressure sensor 2 to the change in the density of the liquid may not be obvious enough. Therefore, the float body 3 can be made of a non-metal material, such as resin or rubber.

[0048] As shown in Figure 2 some examples, the float body 3 is conical.

[0049] If the non-metal material is too light, the weight of the hollow float body 3 can be increased by adding a counterweight (welded or bolted) at the bottom of the float body 3 to improve the detection accuracy of the pressure sensor 2, which can achieve the above purpose while still ensuring that the center of the float body 3 is close to the bottom to reduce the tendency to sway.

[0050] As shown in Figures 2-3 some examples, the main body 1 includes a protective cover 103 and a flow stabilizing cover 104, the flow stabilizing cover 104 is detachably arranged at the bottom of the protective cover 103, the protective cover 103 has a protection area 105, the flow stabilizing cover 104 has a flow stabilization area 106, the protection area 105 and the flow stabilization area 106 together form a detection area 101, the flow stabilizing cover 104 is provided with a communication opening 102, and the pressure sensor 2 and the float body 3 are arranged in the protection area 105 and the flow stabilization area 106, respectively.

[0051] The main body 1 is prefabricated into two parts, the protective cover 103 and the flow stabilizing cover 104. On the one hand, it is convenient for disassembly and maintenance. If it is blocked by impurities in the ore pulp or damaged due to corrosion after a long period of use, some parts can be easily disassembled for cleaning, maintenance or replacement. It is also convenient for maintenance and inspection of the float body 3. If too many suspended particles adhere to the float body 3, the flow stabilizing cover 104 at the bottom can be disassembled to clean the float body 3 to ensure its normal work. On the other hand, the closed protection area 105 of the protective cover 103 can provide more secure protection for the pressure sensor 2 to avoid possible physical impact or chemical corrosion. The flow stabilization area 106 at the bottom ensures the inflow of the ore pulp and reduces the interference of the external liquid flow on the float body 3 to some extent, and the overall function is clear.

[0052] Specifically detachable can use threaded connection, buckle connection or flange connection, threaded connection, in the protective cover 103 bottom set inner thread, stable cover 104 top set outer thread, by clockwise rotating stable cover 104 will be closely connected with the protective cover 103, this way connection firm, good sealing performance; Buckle connection, the protective cover 103 bottom set several evenly distributed card slot, stable cover 104 top has corresponding buckle, after the buckle is aligned with the card slot, rotate a certain angle (such as 30° or 45°), can realize the fixation of stable cover 104.

[0053] As shown in Figures 2-3 some examples, the protective cover 103 is sleeved on the top of the stable cover 104, and the top of the stable cover 104 and the protective cover 103 each have a plurality of mounting holes 107, and the mounting holes 107 of the protective cover 103 and the mounting holes 107 of the stable cover 104 are arranged one by one.

[0054] Both use threaded connection, but do not open threaded groove at the opening of both, complex processing, but open one by one corresponding mounting hole 107 at the top of the stable cover 104 and the bottom of the protective cover 103, directly bolt in the mounting hole 107, only need to align the corresponding mounting hole 107, can quickly determine the installation position, greatly improve the installation efficiency.

[0059] As shown in Figure 2 , Figures 4-6As shown in the drawings, in some examples, a connecting rod 5 is further included, which is connected with the pressure sensor 2 and the float body 3 at two ends respectively.

[0060] A fixing disc 6 is further included, which is arranged at the bottom of the hanging disc 4 and forms a fixing area 7 with the hanging disc 4, the pressure sensor 2 is located in the fixing area 7, and the connecting rod 5 penetrates through the fixing disc 6.

[0061] The connection between the pressure sensor 2 and the float body 3 with a certain distance is achieved by the non-metallic connecting rod 5, which can be pre-fabricated and integrated with the float body 3, or a threaded groove is arranged at the end of the connecting rod 5, and the threaded groove is connected with the threaded structure of the float body 3 and the pressure sensor 2.
