Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of coating testing equipment technology, and in particular to an anti-fog coating testing device. Background Technology

[0002] Anti-fog coatings are special coating materials typically used to reduce or prevent surface fogging in humid or low-temperature environments. Currently, several performance characteristics of anti-fog coatings require testing under simulated environmental conditions. For example, testing the water resistance and damp heat resistance of anti-fog coatings requires placing samples coated with the anti-fog coating (transparent material) in an environment with specific temperature and humidity for aging tests. Water baths can provide a stable temperature environment. By controlling the temperature of the water bath, different usage environment temperature conditions can be simulated to conduct relevant performance tests on anti-fog coatings, observing changes in their anti-fog effect and coating stability under heated and humid conditions to evaluate the quality and performance of the anti-fog coating.

[0003] Traditional water baths typically require users to periodically check the water level visually to ensure it remains within the normal range. While this method is simple and direct, it relies too heavily on the user's subjective awareness and frequency of observation. This can easily lead to oversight or forgetfulness, resulting in untimely water level monitoring, which in turn can cause the equipment to burn out and even lead to safety accidents. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the problem that traditional water baths rely on users periodically visually checking the water level to ensure it is within the normal range. This method can easily lead to dry burning, damage, or even safety accidents. Therefore, this invention proposes an anti-fog coating detection device.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: an anti-fog coating detection device, including a water bath and a storage cavity for storing water in the water bath, further including: a hydrophobic cavity at the bottom of the storage cavity, and an air outlet communicating with the hydrophobic cavity inside the water bath; a blockage removal mechanism, which is disposed in the hydrophobic cavity and slidably connected to the air outlet; and a support cylinder fixedly connected to the upper surface of the water bath and corresponding to the air outlet, wherein the support cylinder is provided with a prompting mechanism driven by water vapor.

[0006] Optionally, the prompting mechanism includes a rotating groove formed on the support cylinder, a second support shaft fixedly connected inside the rotating groove, a rotating fan blade rotatably connected to the second support shaft, a pair of clamping blocks fixedly connected to the support cylinder, a first support shaft fixedly connected to the middle of the clamping blocks, and a rotating plate movably sleeved on the first support shaft.

[0007] Optionally, the prompting mechanism further includes a clamping plate fixedly connected to the upper surface of the middle part of the rotating plate, a return spring fixedly connected to the clamping plate, the end of the return spring away from the clamping plate being fixedly connected to the clamping block, a connecting rope fixedly connected to the lower surface of one end of the rotating plate, and a bell fixedly connected to the end of the connecting rope away from the rotating plate.

[0008] Optionally, the unblocking mechanism includes a sliding plug that is slidably inserted into the air outlet, a floating ball that is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the sliding plug, and a guide frame that is inserted into the air outlet that is fixedly connected to the end of the sliding plug away from the floating ball.

[0009] Optionally, the top of the water bath pot is provided with a groove, and a pot lid is movably connected inside the groove. A handle is fixedly connected to the upper center surface of the pot lid.

[0010] Optionally, the bottom of the water bath is fixedly connected with multiple support legs.

[0011] Optionally, the outer wall of the sliding plug is fixedly fitted with a rubber sleeve that is in close contact with the inner wall of the vent hole.

[0012] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0013] This invention utilizes a combination of a drainage chamber, an air vent, a blockage-clearing mechanism, a support cylinder, and an indicator mechanism to automatically trigger an alarm when the water level in the water bath reaches a low level.

[0027] Example

[0028] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the present invention proposes an anti-fog coating testing device, comprising a water bath 1 and a storage cavity 11 for storing water within the water bath 1. The bottom of the water bath 1 is fixedly connected to several support legs. It also includes a hydrophobic cavity 12 located at the bottom of the storage cavity 11, which ensures that the water level within the hydrophobic cavity 12 is the same as the water level within the storage cavity 11. The water bath 1 also has an vent 13 communicating with the hydrophobic cavity 12, which allows heated water vapor to escape. A support cylinder 2 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the water bath 1, corresponding to the vent 13.

[0029] Among them, such as Figures 4 to 5 As shown, the support cylinder 2 is equipped with a steam-driven indicator mechanism. This mechanism is mechanical and does not require batteries, thus avoiding excessive reliance on electricity. The indicator mechanism includes a rotating groove 21 on the support cylinder 2. A second support shaft 25 is fixedly connected inside the rotating groove 21, and a rotating fan blade 22 is rotatably connected to the second support shaft 25. The rotating fan blade 22 is driven by lateral airflow, not frontal airflow. A pair of clamping blocks 23 are fixedly connected to the support cylinder 2. A first support shaft 24 is fixedly connected to the middle of each clamping block 23, and a rotating plate 3 is movably sleeved on the first support shaft 24.

[0030] In addition, such as Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the prompting mechanism also includes a retaining plate 31 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the middle part of the rotating plate 3. A return spring 32 is fixedly connected to the retaining plate 31. The return spring 32 ensures that the rotating plate 3 returns to its original position after rotation, and each rotation will cause the bell 34 to produce a prompting sound. The end of the return spring 32 away from the retaining plate 31 is fixedly connected to the clamping block 23. A connecting rope 33 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of one end of the rotating plate 3. The connecting rope 33 is made of wear-resistant and strong nylon rope. The end of the connecting rope 33 away from the rotating plate 3 is fixedly connected to the bell 34. The bell 34 is a sound-producing device made of metal or other materials, usually bell-shaped or spherical, with a small hammer or ball inside. When the bell is shaken, struck, or subjected to other external forces, the hammer or ball will strike the inner wall of the bell, producing a crisp and pleasant sound.

[0031] It is worth noting that, such as Figures 2 to 3 As shown, the hydrophobic cavity 12 is equipped with a slidable unblocking mechanism that is slidably connected to the vent 13. The unblocking mechanism includes a sliding plug 4 slidably inserted into the vent 13. The sliding plug 4 is used to prevent water vapor from entering the hydrophobic cavity 12 by being inserted into the vent 13. A floating ball 41 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the sliding plug 4. The floating ball 41 is made of plastic that can float in water and is resistant to water corrosion. A guide frame 42 inserted into the vent 13 is fixedly connected to the end of the sliding plug 4 away from the floating ball 41. The guide frame 42 ensures that the sliding plug 4 can only slide vertically within the vent 13 but cannot fall out.

[0032] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, the top of the water bath 1 has a groove, and a lid 14 is movably connected inside the groove. The lid 14 can cover the storage cavity 11, effectively reducing the contact area between the hot water in the storage cavity 11 and the outside cold air, thereby slowing down the rate of heat dissipation. This helps maintain a stable water temperature inside the water bath 1, reduces energy consumption, and makes it easier to maintain the required temperature environment during experiments or production. A handle is fixedly connected to the center upper surface of the lid 14, which makes it easier and more convenient to remove the lid 14 from the groove.

[0033] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, the outer wall of the sliding plug 4 is fixedly fitted with a rubber sleeve that is in close contact with the inner wall of the vent hole 13. The rubber sleeve ensures that the sliding plug 4 can be inserted into the vent hole 13 to ensure a sealed connection, so that water vapor in the hydrophobic cavity 12 cannot enter or exit the vent hole 13.

[0034] In this embodiment, when using the anti-fog coating detection device, such as Figure 1 As shown, first remove the lid 14 from the water bath 1, then pour water into the storage chamber 11. Next, start the water bath 1 to heat the water in the storage chamber 11, generating steam. Then, place the sample coated with anti-fog paint onto the storage chamber 11. The quality and performance of the anti-fog paint can be tested by observing the degree of steam adhesion on the sample. As the water in the storage chamber 11 is heated, the steam will escape and decrease, causing the water level to drop. This will also cause the floating ball 41 to move downwards. The water continues to evaporate until the bottom of the floating ball 41 is about to touch the inner wall of the hydrophobic cavity 12.

[0035] When the water vapor in the storage cavity 11 drives the prompting mechanism, such as Figure 3As shown, the floating ball 41 will then cause the sliding plug 4 to disengage from the vent 13. At this time, the water vapor generated after the water in the storage chamber 11 evaporates will drift towards the support cylinder 2 through the cleared vent 13. Immediately afterwards, the water vapor drives the rotating fan blade 22 to rotate around the second support shaft 25. The rotated fan blade 22 will repeatedly poke one end of the rotating plate 3, and the rotating plate 3, when poke, will rotate around the first support shaft 24. The other end of the rotating plate 3 will drive the bell 34 to produce a warning sound, indicating to the user that the water in the storage chamber 11 is about to evaporate completely. Simultaneously, because the retaining plate 31 rotates with the rotating plate 3, it will be subject to the elastic rebound force of the return spring 32, causing the rotated plate 3 to return to its original position. This will cause the rotating fan blade 22 to continuously drive the bell 34 to produce a warning sound.

[0036] The preferred embodiments of this utility model described above are merely illustrative of the present utility model. These preferred embodiments do not exhaustively describe all details, nor do they limit the utility model to any specific implementation. Clearly, many modifications and variations can be made based on the content of this specification.
