Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water treatment technology, specifically to a test head protection device for a BOD analyzer. Background Technology

[0002] A BOD meter is an instrument used to measure the biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) in water. It is widely used in environmental monitoring, wastewater treatment, industrial production, scientific research and laboratories, agriculture and aquaculture, among other fields. The test head is one of the main components for achieving the measurement.

[0003] Currently, BOD analyzers lack auxiliary positioning and protection mechanisms when using test heads. Typically, the test head needs to be inserted into the culture flask from the top during use. However, in practice, external forces can easily cause the flask to tip over, leading to the test head and connecting tube detaching from the culture flask and causing damage such as pulling or bumping. This not only affects the accuracy of the measurement but also accelerates the lifespan of the test head. Therefore, a test head protection device for BOD analyzers is proposed to add an auxiliary positioning and protection mechanism. This device uses a pressing and positioning method to quickly insert the test head into the culture flask while simultaneously providing auxiliary protection. Furthermore, after use, the device can be recycled to reduce exposure to air, improving safety and stability, and ultimately enhancing the overall performance. Summary of the Invention

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the limiting ring and limiting groove facilitate the rotational connection of the mounting base to the driven sprocket, the test head and connecting hose facilitate the connection to the BOD measuring instrument for measurement, and the through hole facilitates the through-hole use of the test head, while avoiding the rotation of the driven sprocket and sealing block from affecting the use of the test head.

[0014] Specifically, the top of the BOD measuring instrument has a placement groove, the inside of the BOD measuring instrument has a groove, and the BOD measuring instrument is connected to the sleeve rod through the groove.

[0026] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0027] To facilitate the rapid insertion of the test head into the culture flask using a pressing and positioning method, while simultaneously providing auxiliary protection to improve its effectiveness, such as... Figure 1-3 As shown, the test head protection device of the BOD measuring instrument of this utility model includes a BOD measuring instrument 1, a positioning component 2 and a sealing component 3. The positioning component 2 is slidably connected to the top of the BOD measuring instrument 1, and the sealing component 3 is provided at the bottom of the positioning component 2.

[0028] The positioning component 2 includes a pressure plate 201. The bottom of the pressure plate 201 is connected to a sleeve rod 202 by bolts, and the BOD measuring instrument 1 is sleeved and connected to the sleeve rod 202. One end of the sleeve rod 202 is connected to a limit block 203 by bolts. A compression spring 204 is sleeved and connected between the limit block 203 and the pressure plate 201 on the periphery of the sleeve rod 202.

[0029] In use, the pressure plate 201, sleeve rod 202, limiting block 203 and compression spring 204 can be used to add an auxiliary positioning and protection mechanism. By using elastic force to push and slide down, the sample culture bottle is fixed and limited. At the same time, it can form a protection around the test head, which can avoid damage such as tilting, pulling and bumping caused by external forces. The structure is simple, the cost is low, and the use is more stable and reliable.

[0030] To improve measurement accuracy, for example, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the present invention also includes a sealing assembly 3 comprising a mounting base 301, wherein the mounting base 301 is connected to a pressure plate 201 by bolts, a driven sprocket 302 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the mounting base 301, a sealing block 303 is connected to the bottom of the driven sprocket 302 by bolts, and a rubber ring 304 is glued to the periphery of the sealing block 303.

[0031] In use, an auxiliary sealing mechanism can be added through the mounting base 301, driven sprocket 302, sealing block 303 and rubber ring 304. By rotating, an auxiliary reinforced sealing structure is formed around the test head, reducing the gap between the bottle mouth and the test head, thereby improving the accuracy of the measurement.

[0032] For example, such as Figure 2 , 5 As shown, the present invention also includes a handle 205 bolted to the top of the pressure plate 201, a drive sprocket 206 rotatably connected to one side of the bottom of the pressure plate 201, a chain belt 207 meshing with the outer periphery of the drive sprocket 206 and the driven sprocket 302, and a stepper motor 208 bolted to one side of the top of the pressure plate 201, and the stepper motor 208 is connected to the drive sprocket 206 via a drive shaft.

[0033] In use, the handle 205 facilitates the upward sliding of the pressure plate 201. Through the drive sprocket 206, chain belt 207 and stepper motor 208, the sealing assembly 3 can be driven to rotate synchronously by the meshing connection.

[0034] For example, such as Figure 1 , 4 As shown, this utility model also includes a limiting ring 305 welded to the top of the driven sprocket 302, a limiting groove 306 corresponding to the limiting ring 305 opened at the bottom of the mounting base 301, a test head 4 bolted to the bottom of the mounting base 301, through holes 307 corresponding to the test head 4 opened in both the driven sprocket 302 and the sealing block 303, and the test head 4 passes through the driven sprocket 302 and the sealing block 303 through the through holes 307, and a connecting hose 5 is provided on one side of the BOD measuring instrument 1, and one end of the connecting hose 5 is connected to the test head 4.

[0035] In use, the limiting ring 305 and the limiting groove 306 facilitate the rotation of the mounting base 301 to connect to the driven sprocket 302. The test head 4 and the connecting hose 5 facilitate the connection to the BOD measuring instrument 1 for measurement. The through hole 307 facilitates the through-hole use of the test head 4, while preventing the rotation of the driven sprocket 302 and the sealing block 303 from affecting the use of the test head 4.

[0036] For example, such as Figure 1 , 3 As shown, the present invention also includes a placement groove 101 on the top of the BOD measuring instrument 1, a groove 102 inside the BOD measuring instrument 1, and a connecting rod 202 sleeved on the BOD measuring instrument 1 through the groove 102. A tightening screw 6 corresponding to the rod 202 is threadedly connected to the surface of the BOD measuring instrument 1 through a reserved threaded hole.

[0037] In use, the placement slot 101 facilitates the placement of sample culture bottles, the groove 102 facilitates the connection of the sleeve rod 202, and the tightening screw 6 facilitates the limiting and fixing of the sleeve rod 202.

[0038] In use, the operator first lifts the pressure plate 201 upwards using the handle 205, places the culture bottle into the placement slot 101, and uses the elastic force of the compression spring 204 to push the lower limit block 203. The sleeve rod 202 drives the pressure plate 201 to slide downwards, allowing the test head 4 to be inserted into the corresponding culture bottle. Then, the operator manually turns on the stepper motor 208 to drive the drive sprocket 206 to rotate. The chain belt 207 drives the drive sprocket 206 to rotate synchronously. The sealing block 303 and its rubber ring 304 slowly enter the mouth of the culture bottle through rotation, providing auxiliary sealing and reinforcement. Finally, the tightening screw 6 is turned to limit and fix the sleeve rod 202. The overall structure is simple, low-cost, easy to operate, more stable and safe to use, and also helps to extend the service life of the test head 4.
