Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gas-liquid separator technology, specifically a gas-liquid separator with flow rate calibration. Background Technology
[0002] If the liquid in a liquid mixture is discharged directly into the environment without treatment, it may contain harmful substances and pollute the soil, water and air. A gas-liquid separator can separate these liquids and treat them properly, reducing pollutant emissions and protecting the environment.
[0003] Existing gas-liquid separators separate the gas and liquid and then purify them separately to meet national requirements before direct discharge. However, due to the simple structure of the gas-liquid separators, it is impossible to monitor the flow rate of the gas and liquid after separation, resulting in low functionality.
[0004] To address the aforementioned shortcomings, a liquid continuous pressure guiding device for flow measurement, disclosed in CN210487153U, is described. This device connects a liquid continuous pressure guiding unit in series with a differential pressure transmitter upstream and with a liquid continuous pressure guiding unit downstream of the primary device. Therefore, the liquid from upstream or downstream of the primary device first passes through the liquid continuous pressure guiding unit to separate the gas before entering the differential pressure transmitter. This prevents small air bubbles in the measured pipeline from entering the differential pressure transmitter, thereby avoiding uncertain differential pressure measurement errors caused by gas entering the differential pressure transmitter.
[0005] In actual use, although the above-mentioned device can achieve the purpose of measurement, the pipe being measured contains gas and liquid. As a result, when the gas and liquid are mixed, only one type of object can be detected, leading to poor detection results.
[0006] Therefore, we proposed a flow-calibrated gas-liquid separator that can effectively solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide a flow rate calibrated gas-liquid separator to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the pipes being tested currently on the market contain both gas and liquid, which leads to the fact that during measurement, the gas and liquid mix and only one type of object can be detected, resulting in poor detection performance.
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a flow rate calibrated gas-liquid separator, including a pipeline, wherein the pipeline is connected to the equipment;
[0009] The pipeline has a branch in the middle, and each branch is equipped with a meter. The two sets of meters are arranged vertically, and the meter is connected to the pipeline by a sealing gasket.
[0010] Preferably, the bottom of the meter is fixed with a slider, and there are two sets of sliders arranged symmetrically.
[0011] Preferably, the outer end of the slider extends into the interior of the groove to form an engaging mechanism, and the groove is opened inside the pipe, with the top of the groove being open.
[0012] Preferably, the slider has a sliding connection with a locking block inside, and the inner end of the locking block is arc-shaped, and the arc-shaped positions of the inner ends of the two sets of locking blocks are opposite.
[0013] Preferably, the inner end of the card block extends into the interior of the card slot to form a one-way engaging mechanism, and the card slot is formed inside the slider.
[0014] Preferably, the outer end of the card block is connected to a spring, and the outer end of the spring is connected to the inside of the pipe.
[0015] Preferably, the outer end of the card block is connected to a pull ring, and the outer end of the pull ring extends out of the inside of the pipe to form a sliding mechanism.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the flow-calibrated gas-liquid separator has good measurement effect and is easy to maintain. The use of the meter allows for separate measurement and calibration of gas and liquid, thereby improving the measurement effect. Furthermore, the use of the slider allows for convenient disassembly and assembly of the meter, facilitating subsequent maintenance. The specific details are as follows:
[0017] (1) A meter is provided. By providing two sets of metering instruments, the metering instruments can be used to detect and calibrate the flow rates of gas and liquid respectively, thereby improving the measurement effect.
[0018] (2) A slider is provided, which disengages from the slide groove, thereby allowing the measuring instrument to be easily disassembled and assembled, which facilitates subsequent maintenance of the measuring instrument and ensures the accuracy of the measuring instrument.

The locking groove is opened inside the slider. Then, the locking between the locking block and the locking groove can improve the stability of the connection between the slider and the groove.
[0021] (5) A pull ring is provided. The pull ring is connected to the outer end of the block, and the outer end of the pull ring extends into the inside of the pipe to form a sliding mechanism.

[0029] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0030] Example 1: A flow-calibrated gas-liquid separator solves the problem that existing test pipelines contain both gas and liquid, resulting in poor detection performance because the mixture of gas and liquid can only detect one type of substance during measurement. By using a meter 2, gas and liquid can be detected separately, thereby improving the detection effect. The following is disclosed:
[0031] Pipeline 1 is connected to the equipment; Pipeline 1 has a branch in the middle, and each branch of Pipeline 1 is equipped with a meter 2, and the two sets of meter 2 are arranged vertically, and the connection between the meter 2 and Pipeline 1 is connected by a sealing gasket.
[0032] refer to Figures 1 to 4The gas-liquid mixture flows inside pipe 1, and then through a branch of pipe 1, the gas-liquid mixture can be separated. The liquid flows to the bottom of the branch of pipe 1 by gravity, while the gas flows through pipe 1. Meter 2 measures the flow rate based on the pressure difference generated by the fluid passing through the obstruction. When the gas and liquid fill pipe 1 separately, the flow stream will locally contract, thereby increasing the flow velocity and decreasing the static pressure. As a result, a pressure drop is generated before and after the throttling device on meter 2. The greater the flow rate of the medium, the greater the pressure difference generated before and after the throttling device on meter 2. The fluid flow rate is measured by measuring the pressure difference. Then, the gas and liquid can be detected separately by meter 2, thereby improving the comprehensiveness of the measurement and thus improving the measurement effect.
[0033] Example 2: A flow rate calibrated gas-liquid separator solves the problem of inconvenient disassembly and maintenance of the meter 2 in Example 1. The use of the slider 3 and the slide groove 4 improves the ease of disassembly and assembly of the meter 2. The following is disclosed:
[0034] The bottom of the measuring device 2 is fixed with a slider 3, and there are two sets of sliders 3. The two sets of sliders 3 are arranged symmetrically. The outer end of the slider 3 extends into the interior of the slide groove 4 to form a locking mechanism. The slide groove 4 is opened inside the pipe 1, and the top of the slide groove 4 is open.
[0035] refer to Figures 1 to 6 When maintenance of meter 2 is required, by rotating meter 2, meter 2 can slide inside pipe 1, which in turn causes slider 3 to move inside slide groove 4. After meter 2 is rotated to the position, slider 3 and slide groove 4 will disengage, and then meter 2 can be pulled to detach it from pipe 1, thus facilitating maintenance and repair of meter 2. When installing meter 2, the above operation is reversed, and the engagement between slider 3 and slide groove 4 fixes meter 2 inside pipe 1. The connection between meter 2 and pipe 1 is sealed with a gasket to prevent gas and liquid from overflowing.
[0036] Example 3: A flow-calibrated gas-liquid separator solves the problem of unstable connection between slider 3 and groove 4 in Example 2. The stability of the connection between slider 3 and groove 4 can be improved by using locking block 5 and locking groove 6. The following is disclosed:
[0037] The slider 3 has a sliding connection of a locking block 5 inside, and the inner end of the locking block 5 is arc-shaped. The arc positions of the inner ends of the two sets of locking blocks 5 are opposite. The inner end of the locking block 5 extends into the inside of the locking groove 6 to form a one-way locking mechanism. The locking groove 6 is opened inside the slider 3. The outer end of the locking block 5 is connected to a spring 7, and the outer end of the spring 7 is connected to the inside of the pipe 1. The outer end of the locking block 5 is connected to a pull ring 8, and the outer end of the pull ring 8 extends out of the inside of the pipe 1 to form a sliding mechanism.
[0038] refer to Figure 6 When it is necessary to disassemble the meter 2, pull the pull ring 8, which moves the pull ring 8 and drives the locking block 5 to move. The moving block 5 will slide into the inside of the pipe 1 and disengage from the locking groove 6. The movement of the locking block 5 will also compress the spring 7, causing the spring 7 to be compressed and forceful. This allows the slider 3 to slide inside the slide groove 4. The movement of the slider 3 will also compress the locking block 5, allowing the locking block 5 to be housed inside the pipe 1. When the slide groove 4 and the slider 3 are connected and engaged, the force of the spring 7 pushes the locking block 5 into the inside of the locking groove 6 to form an engagement, thereby fixing the slider 3 inside the slide groove 4 and improving the stability of the connection between the meter 2 and the pipe 1.
[0039] Working principle: When using this type of flow-calibrated gas-liquid separator, firstly, refer to... Figures 1 to 4 The gas-liquid mixture flows inside pipe 1 and then through the branch of pipe 1, which allows the gas-liquid mixture to be separated. The liquid flows to the bottom of the branch of pipe 1 by gravity, while the gas flows through pipe 1. The gas and liquid can then be detected separately by meter 2, thereby improving the comprehensiveness of the measurement and thus improving the measurement effect.
[0040] refer to Figures 1 to 6 When maintenance is required on meter 2, meter 2 is rotated so that it can slide inside pipe 1. After meter 2 is rotated to the position, meter 2 is pulled so that it can be detached from pipe 1. When installing meter 2, the above operation is reversed. The engagement between slider 3 and slide groove 4 is used, and the connection between meter 2 and pipe 1 is sealed by a sealing gasket to prevent gas and liquid from overflowing.
[0041] refer to Figure 6 When it is necessary to disassemble the meter 2, pull the pull ring 8, which moves the pull ring 8 and drives the locking block 5 to move. The movement of the locking block 5 will disengage from the locking groove 6, allowing the slider 3 to slide inside the slide groove 4. The movement of the slider 3 will also squeeze the locking block 5. When the slide groove 4 and the slider 3 are connected and engaged, the force of the spring 7 pushes the locking block 5 into the interior of the locking groove 6 to form an engagement, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the meter 2 and the pipe 1.
