Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model, a buffer tank with liquid level monitoring, belongs to the technical field of chemical production equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Buffer tanks are mainly used in chemical production. Buffer tanks used in some factories are generally large and heavy, making them difficult to move during installation or relocation. Currently, when buffer tanks are filled with liquid, the liquid flows out of the outlet at the bottom of the tank at a very fast rate, causing instability in the filling volume and creating significant pressure at the junction of the tank and the outlet. However, when the buffer tank contains less liquid, the liquid flows out slowly and at an unstable rate, resulting in longer outflow times and reduced work efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a buffer tank with liquid level monitoring, the specific technical solution of which is as follows:
[0004] Buffer tanks with liquid level monitoring, such as Figures 1-2 As shown, it includes a buffer tank 1 and a support 2, with the buffer tank 1 placed on the support 2. The buffer tank is characterized in that it includes a tank body 3 and a lid 4.
[0005] Among them, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the top of the tank body 3 is provided with a cover 4, the lower middle part of the inner wall of the tank body 3 is provided with a liquid level monitoring module 9, the bottom of the tank body 3 is provided with a discharge port 8, and a damping plug 13 is provided in the discharge port 8; a float 10 is provided inside the tank body 3, wherein the weight of the float 10 is half of the buoyancy of the liquid contained in the tank body 3.
[0006] The upper surface of the cover 4 is provided with a positioning through hole, and a drive motor 5 is provided above the cover 4. The lower end of the drive motor 5 is connected to a rotating shaft 12, and the rotating shaft 12 passes through the positioning through hole into the cover 4. A cleaning brush 11 is provided inside the rotating shaft 12. A feed port 6 is provided on one side of the drive motor 5, and a piston 7 is provided inside the feed port 6.
[0007] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: this utility model provides a buffer tank with liquid level monitoring, which is easy to disassemble, assemble and move. A support frame is installed at the bottom of the buffer tank to ensure stability during actual production. A liquid level monitoring module is located inside the lower part of the tank to monitor the liquid level. This module is connected to an external control terminal; when the liquid level falls below the module's level, it sends a signal to the control terminal, allowing operators to monitor the liquid level changes in real time and promptly add the necessary liquid through the inlet to ensure sufficient liquid levels. When the buffer tank needs to be filled, the cleaning brush connected to the drive motor is removed before the lid is placed on top of the tank to prevent contamination. The float is also positioned on the upper surface of the liquid to prevent excessive fluctuations in the liquid level when discharging from the outlet, ensuring stable liquid flow. When the buffer tank is empty and cleaning is required, the cleaning brush is mounted on the drive motor, which is connected to an external power source to drive the brush and clean the inner wall of the tank, improving efficiency and avoiding wasted time.

[0014] The present invention will be further described below.
[0015] like Figure 3As shown, the liquid level monitoring module 9 is a liquid level sensor, which is embedded in the lower middle part of the inner wall of the tank 3. The liquid level monitoring module 9 is connected to an external control terminal. When the tank needs to hold liquid, the liquid level monitoring module 9 monitors the liquid level in real time. When the liquid level is lower than the liquid level monitoring module 9, it sends a signal to the external control terminal, so that the staff can monitor the amount of liquid remaining in the buffer tank in real time and replenish the liquid at any time through the inlet.
[0016] like Figure 6 As shown, float 10 is suspended above the surface of the liquid contained in tank 3. During the discharge process, the upper surface of the liquid at outlet 8 will fluctuate, causing fluctuations in the discharge volume and resulting in instability in the outflow rate and discharge volume. Therefore, float 10 is placed on the upper surface of the liquid in tank 3. Since the weight of float 10 is half of the buoyancy of the liquid, when float 10 is placed on the upper surface of the liquid, half of the float will be immersed in the liquid, thus applying gravity to the liquid surface. This prevents significant fluctuations in the upper surface of the liquid during the discharge process at outlet 8, keeping the liquid surface stable and ensuring the stability of the flow rate and discharge volume at the lower outlet.
[0017] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a cleaning brush 11 is detachably connected inside the rotating shaft 12. The cleaning brush 11 is U-shaped. The cleaning brush 11 is detachable, which is convenient in actual use. When it is necessary to clean the inside of the tank 3, the cleaning brush 11 is installed on the rotating shaft 12 and connected to an external power source through the drive motor 5 to drive the cleaning brush 11 to rotate. Because the cleaning brush 11 is U-shaped and fits tightly against the inner wall of the tank 3, it can quickly and easily clean the inside of the tank 3, ensuring the cleanliness of the tank.
[0018] The above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
