Description

Technical Field

[0002] The light scattering dust concentration measurement method is a specialized detection instrument widely used in environmental monitoring, industrial production, scientific research experiments, homes and public places, and medical and health fields. Its working principle is based on the principle of light scattering. When particulate matter in a gas passes through a laser beam, it scatters light. The intensity of this scattered light is detected by a photoelectric sensor, thereby calculating the dust concentration.

[0003] However, after prolonged use, existing light-scattering dust concentration measurement devices may experience reduced luminous efficiency due to aging of the laser light source, thus affecting the light source intensity; or fluctuations in the power supply may also lead to instability in the light source intensity. For example, voltage fluctuations and current instability can both affect the luminous intensity of the light source.

[0028] Before describing the embodiments of this utility model in detail, the application environment of this utility model will be described first. The technology of this utility model is mainly applied to the field of dust concentration measurement technology. This utility model is used to solve the problem that the light source intensity of existing light scattering dust concentration measuring devices is prone to change, leading to deviations in the measurement results.

[0029] Please combine Figures 1 to 2 As shown, this utility model provides a measuring optical path system for a dust concentration measuring device.

[0030] In an exemplary embodiment of this application, the measuring optical path system of the dust concentration measuring device includes an inlet pipe and an exhaust pipe. The inlet pipe is used to introduce flue gas from the flue into the device, and the exhaust pipe is used to discharge the flue gas from the device.

[0031] Measurement chamber 1 is connected to the air inlet pipe and the exhaust pipe. Measurement chamber 1 is provided with a measurement area 101a, which is used for measuring the concentration of dust in flue gas.

[0032] The light source generating component 2 is used to emit a light beam that is scattered by the flue gas dust particles in the measurement area 101a;

[0033] The beam splitting component 3 is used to split the beam emitted by the light source generating component 2 into a measurement beam and a calibration beam;

[0034] Reflector 4 is used to reflect the calibration beam so that the calibration beam is parallel to the measurement beam;

[0035] Optical path switching baffle 5 is used to block the measurement beam or calibration beam;

[0036] The beam collection module 6 includes a first collection component 601 and a second collection component 602. The first collection component 601 is used to collect the scattered beam or calibration beam after the measurement beam passes through the measurement area 101a and is scattered by dust particles. The second collection component 602 is used to collect the beam that is not scattered after the measurement beam passes through the measurement area 101a.

[0037] In this embodiment, the beam emitted by the light source generating unit 2 is divided into a measurement beam and a calibration beam by the beam splitting component 3. The calibration beam is parallel to the measurement beam by the reflector 4 to avoid measurement errors caused by different beam paths. In the measurement state, the optical path switching baffle 5 blocks the calibration beam, and only the measurement beam passes through the measurement area 101a. The scattered beam after the measurement beam is scattered by the dust particles is collected by the first collecting component 601. By measuring the intensity of the scattered light, the dust concentration can be calculated. The beam that has not been scattered is collected by the second collecting component 602. By blocking the measurement beam with the optical path switching baffle 5, the calibration beam is received by the first collecting component 601. The calibration beam compensates for changes in light source intensity, ambient light interference, and other factors, corrects the signal of the measurement beam, and ensures the accuracy of the measurement results.

[0038] It is worth noting that the calibration beam does not scatter and is directly received by the first collecting component 601, which can be used to monitor real-time changes in the light source intensity. When the light source intensity changes, both the measuring beam and the calibration beam will be affected. However, since the calibration beam does not scatter and is directly received by the first collecting component 601, the intensity of the light it receives directly reflects the change in the light source intensity. By comparing the intensity of the light received by the calibration beam with a preset standard value or initial value, the change in the light source intensity can be calculated. The resulting change can be used to adjust or correct the intensity of the scattered light received by the measuring beam, thereby eliminating the influence of changes in light source intensity on the measurement results.

[0039] In an exemplary embodiment of this application, the light source generating component 2 is a laser diode.

[0040] In this embodiment, the light source generating component 2 shown in this application includes, but is not limited to, a 6.5nm laser diode. The laser diode can provide a stable and intensity-controllable beam, which is suitable for precise optical measurement.

[0041] In an exemplary embodiment of this application, the beam splitting component 3 includes a base 301 and a beam splitter 302. The base 301 includes an input light channel 301a, a first output light channel 301b, and a second output light channel 301c. The beam splitter 302 is located at the intersection of the input light channel 301a, the first output light channel 301b, and the second output light channel 301c. The beam splitter 302 is used to split the light beam emitted by the light source generating component 2 into a measurement beam and a calibration beam. The first output light channel 301b is used for the measurement beam to emit light, and the second output light channel 301c is used for the calibration beam to emit light.

[0042] In this embodiment, the beam splitter 302 splits the light beam emitted by the light source generating component 2 into two laser beams of equal size in terms of intensity. These beams are emitted through the first light output channel 301b and the second light output channel 301c, respectively, to form a measurement beam and a calibration beam.

[0043] In an exemplary embodiment of this application, the first light-emitting channel 301b is coaxial with the light-incoming channel 301a, and the second light-emitting channel 301c is perpendicular to the first light-emitting channel 301b.

[0044] In this embodiment, the reflector is located directly above the beam splitting component 3. The second light output channel 301c is perpendicular to the first light output channel 301b, so that the split calibration beam can be perpendicularly irradiated onto the reflector. The reflector adjusts the calibration beam to be parallel to the measurement beam.

[0045] In an exemplary embodiment of this application, a driving component is also included. The driving component is connected to the optical path switching baffle 5 and is used to drive the optical path switching baffle 5 to flip so as to block the first light output channel 301b or the second light output channel 301c.

[0046] In this embodiment, the driving component includes, but is not limited to, a motor. The driving component drives the optical path switching baffle 5 to rotate so that the optical path switching baffle 5 blocks the first light output channel 301b or the second light output channel 301c. The optical path switching baffle 5 can rotate 270°.

[0047] In an exemplary embodiment of this application, the measuring chamber 1 includes a flue gas chamber 101 and a first air curtain chamber 102 and a second air curtain chamber 103 disposed at both ends of the flue gas chamber 101 along the axial direction. The flue gas chamber 101 is connected to an air inlet pipe and an exhaust pipe. The first air curtain chamber 102 is connected to an air source. The second air curtain chamber 103 is connected to the first air curtain chamber 102.

[0048] In this embodiment, by setting a first air curtain cavity 102 and a second air curtain cavity 103 at both ends of the flue gas cavity 101, an invisible and transparent barrier can be formed at both ends of the flue gas cavity 101, which can block dust particles from passing through. When dust is generated and diffuses into the flue gas cavity 101, the air curtain barrier can block the passage of dust-laden airflow and prevent dust from entering the measurement area 101a, thereby ensuring the accuracy of dust concentration measurement; the air curtain barrier can also protect the measuring equipment from dust contamination and damage, providing a relatively clean working environment for the measuring equipment.

[0049] In an exemplary embodiment of this application, the flue gas chamber 101 is provided with an air passage 101b that connects the first air curtain chamber 102 and the second air curtain chamber 103.

[0050] In this embodiment, the first air curtain cavity 102 and the second air curtain cavity 103 are connected through the air passage 101b.

[0051] In an exemplary embodiment of this application, the beam collecting module 6 is disposed within the second air curtain cavity 103.

[0052] In this embodiment, the beam collecting module 6 is disposed in the second air curtain cavity 103, so that the beam scattered by the measurement area 101a can be collected by the beam collecting module 6 in the first time, thereby further ensuring the accuracy of the measurement results.

[0053] In an exemplary embodiment of this application, the beam collecting module 6 further includes a converging lens 603, which is used to converge a scattered beam or a calibration beam.

[0054] In this embodiment, the converging lens 603 can converge scattered light rays to form a beam with a clear direction; the first collecting component 601 is used to collect the converged beam and transmit it to the receiver, which converts the optical signal into an electrical signal.

[0055] In an exemplary embodiment of this application, the first collecting component 601 is an optical fiber, and the second collecting component 602 is an optical trap.

[0056] In this embodiment, the laser light that has passed through the dust particles without being scattered is absorbed by the optical trap.

[0057] The working principle is as follows: the beam emitted by the light source generating component 2 is divided into a measurement beam and a calibration beam by the beam splitting component 3. The calibration beam is parallel to the measurement beam by the reflector 4 to avoid measurement errors caused by different beam paths. In the measurement state, the optical path switching baffle 5 blocks the calibration beam, and only the measurement beam passes through the measurement area 101a. The scattered beam after the measurement beam is scattered by the dust particles is collected by the first collecting component 601. By measuring the intensity of the scattered light, the dust concentration can be calculated. The beam that has not been scattered is collected by the second collecting component 602. By blocking the measurement beam with the optical path switching baffle 5, the calibration beam is received by the first collecting component 601. The calibration beam compensates for changes in light source intensity, ambient light interference, and other factors, corrects the signal of the measurement beam, and ensures the accuracy of the measurement results.

[0058] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in this utility model should still be covered by the claims of this utility model.
