Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of storage and conveying equipment technology, specifically a high-level metering tank with anti-overflow function. Background Technology
[0002] A high-level metering tank is a device used for precise metering and delivery of liquids. It is usually installed at a high position and relies on gravity to allow the liquid to flow to the required location. Existing organic high-level tanks do not have a device to prevent overfilling, which can easily lead to overflowing during the process of adding extractant to the organic high-level tank.
[0003] Chinese Patent No. CN222318161U discloses a metering device for an organic high-level tank, including a fixed platform. A support plate is installed at the bottom of the fixed platform, and two sets of mounting plates are symmetrically installed on the top of the fixed platform. Mounting blocks are installed at the bottom of the mounting plates. This invention utilizes a drainage channel installed at the top inside the high-level tank. The drainage channel has a hollow structure inside, with an opening on the left side of its bottom. A liquid outlet pipe is installed on the outside of this opening, extending through a corresponding slot on the side of the high-level tank to the top left side. When organic solution is added to the high-level tank until it covers the bottom opening of the drainage channel, the organic solution enters the drainage channel and eventually flows out through the liquid outlet pipe. The presence of organic solution flowing out of the liquid outlet pipe indicates whether the high-level tank has been fully filled. The design is simple, practical, and easy to produce and use.
[0004] However, the aforementioned patent relies on the discharge of solution through a drain pipe to determine if there is an overflow. This method requires constant observation by staff, which can lead to significant overflows when staff are distracted. Furthermore, the discharged solution drips directly onto the ground, causing waste and pollution, requiring additional cleaning work, which is quite inconvenient. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a high-level metering tank with an anti-overflow function to solve the problem in the background art where overflow is determined by discharging the solution through the outlet pipe. This method requires constant observation by the staff, which can lead to a large overflow when the staff is distracted. At the same time, the discharged solution drips directly onto the ground, causing waste and pollution, requiring additional cleaning work, which is quite inconvenient.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a high-level metering tank with anti-overflow function, comprising a high-level tank, a storage tank, and a glass column. The storage tank is located outside the high-level tank, and the glass column is inserted into the lower left side of the outer side wall of the storage tank. A guide plate is fixedly connected between the top of the storage tank and the top of the high-level tank. A guide hole is opened around the inner side wall of the guide plate. A water immersion controller is fixedly connected to the upper left side of the outer side wall of the storage tank. A buzzer is fixedly connected to the left end of the water immersion controller. A wire is fixedly connected to the connection end of the water immersion controller, and an electrode contact head is fixedly connected to the end of the wire.
[0007] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0008] A solenoid valve is inserted into the bottom left side of the high-level tank, and a one-way valve is inserted between the bottom right side of the high-level tank and the bottom right side of the storage box.
[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0010] The top of the storage box is fitted with a sealing cap, and a filling port is inserted into the middle of the top of the sealing cap.
[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0012] A vent hole is provided on the top right side of the sealing cap, and a sealing plug is inserted into the inner cavity of the vent hole.
[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0014] The wire is located inside the glass column, and a limiting plate is sleeved on the upper side of the outer wall of the glass column, with the right end of the limiting plate fixedly connected to the upper left side of the outer wall of the storage box.
[0015] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0016] The storage tank is fixedly connected to support feet on both sides of its bottom, and the water immersion controller is electrically connected to the electrode contact head through the wire.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0018] 1. This high-level metering tank with anti-overflow function has a storage tank installed outside the high-level tank. A guide plate and guide hole are installed between the storage tank and the high-level tank. When liquid overflows during filling, the overflowing liquid will enter the storage tank. A glass column is installed on one side of the storage tank. Through the principle of communicating vessels, the liquid levels in the storage tank and the glass column rise synchronously. An electrode contact head is installed inside the glass column. The electrode contact head is connected to the water immersion controller through a wire. When the water comes into contact with the electrode contact head, the two electrodes between the electrode contact heads form a conductive path and transmit a signal to the water immersion controller. The water immersion controller triggers a buzzer to sound an alarm. This allows for timely overflow reminders without the need for staff to constantly observe.
[0019] 2. This high-level metering tank with anti-overflow function temporarily stores overflowing liquid by setting up a storage tank. When transporting liquid, the connection between the high-level tank and the storage tank is made by opening a solenoid valve. The liquid in the high-level tank and the storage tank can be discharged by a one-way valve. In this way, the waste of liquid storage and pollution to the ground are effectively avoided, which is more convenient. Attached Figure Description

[0032] In summary: By setting a storage tank 200 outside the high-level tank 100, and setting a guide plate 210 and a guide hole 220 between the storage tank 200 and the high-level tank 100, when liquid overflows during filling, the overflowing liquid will enter the storage tank 200. A glass column 300 is set on one side of the storage tank 200. Through the principle of communicating vessels, the liquid levels in the storage tank 200 and the glass column 300 rise synchronously. By setting an electrode contact head 340 inside the glass column 300, and connecting the electrode contact head 340 to the water immersion controller 310 through a wire 330, when the water comes into contact with the electrode contact head 340, the two electrodes between the electrode contact heads 340 form a conductive path and transmit a signal to the water immersion controller 310. The water immersion controller 310 triggers the buzzer 320 to sound an alarm. This eliminates the need for staff to constantly observe and can provide timely overflow reminders.
[0033] Please refer to it again. Figure 3 A solenoid valve 110 is inserted into the bottom left side of the high-level tank 100, and a one-way valve 120 is inserted between the bottom right side of the high-level tank 100 and the bottom right side of the storage tank 200.

[0038] In summary: By setting up a storage tank 200 to temporarily store overflowing liquid, and by opening the solenoid valve 110 to connect the high-level tank 100 and the storage tank 200 during liquid transportation, the liquid in the high-level tank 100 and the storage tank 200 can be discharged through the one-way valve 120. This method effectively avoids waste of liquid storage and pollution to the ground, and is quite convenient.
[0039] In practical use, when using the product, the person in this technical field connects the filling port 240 to an external water pump, removes the sealing plug 260, and introduces the liquid into the high-level tank 100. When overflow occurs, the liquid flows into the storage tank 200 through the guide hole 220. At this time, the water levels in the storage tank 200 and the glass column 300 rise synchronously. After contacting the two electrodes of the electrode contact head 340, a conductive path is formed, and the signal is transmitted to the water immersion controller 310. The water immersion controller 310 triggers the buzzer 320 to sound an alarm. The operator turns off the water pump. When conveying the liquid, the solenoid valve 110 is opened to connect the high-level tank 100 and the storage tank 200, and the one-way valve 120 is opened to drain the liquid in the high-level tank 100 and the storage tank 200.
