Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automatic water replenishment in static scale inhibition experiments, and in particular to an automatic water replenishment device for static scale inhibition experiments. Background Technology

[0002] With increasing attention being paid to problems in industrial circulating cooling water systems, in practical applications, it is necessary to comprehensively consider economic and environmental benefits, select appropriate descaling, corrosion prevention, and microbial control agents, and develop new composite formulations of scale inhibitors and corrosion inhibitors, as well as research various water treatment application technologies, based on actual conditions such as raw water quality, circulating water volume and temperature rise, makeup water quality and price, the material and type of heat exchange equipment used in circulating water, and other operating conditions. The test methods for new composite formulations of scale inhibitors and corrosion inhibitors include rotating plate experiments, static scale inhibition experiments, and dynamic simulation experiments.

[0003] The principle of the static scale inhibition method for screening scaling rates is to simulate the 80℃ conditions on the cooler water side. The pH value is increased by evaporation and concentration to achieve on-site cooling water adjustment without acid. Under the condition of maintaining the natural pH value of about 9 and increasing the concentration of scale-forming ions accordingly, scale inhibitors are screened. The concentrations of scale inhibitors are measured under conditions with and without scale inhibitors. After heating and concentration, the scale inhibition efficiency of the agent is calculated based on the Ca2+ content that finally stabilizes in the water. After the experiment, the higher the Ca2+ content in the solution, the less CaCO3 insoluble salt is precipitated, and the higher the scale inhibition efficiency.

[0004] In the static scale inhibition experiment, the concentration ratio of circulating water ranges from 1 to 5 times, and the longest experiment can last up to 48 hours. For example, a concentration ratio of 5 times requires the addition of 1000 ml of recycled water. In order to ensure the quality of the experiment, 10 ml of water is added each time. Existing technology usually uses manual water replenishment. However, if 1000 ml of water is added, the staff needs to replenish the water 100 times, which will be time-consuming, labor-intensive, and increase the labor intensity of the staff. Therefore, automatic water replenishment is necessary in the static scale inhibition experiment. Summary of the Invention

[0037] 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.

[0038] This utility model provides, for example Figure 1-5 An automatic water replenishment device for a static scale inhibition experiment is shown, comprising a base plate 1 on top of which a beaker 2 is mounted. The base plate 1 provides support for the beaker 2 and also for the water replenishment tank 31. A water replenishment mechanism 3 is located on top of the base plate 1 and is used to automatically replenish water to the inside of the beaker 2. The water replenishment mechanism 3 includes a liquid level sensor 36, which can be a float type. The liquid level sensor 36 converts changes in liquid level into electrical signals and transmits them to a water pump controller 33. The water pump controller 33 determines whether to start or stop the water pump 32 based on the received signals. When the liquid level is lower than a set value, the controller 33 sends a start signal; when the liquid level is higher than the set value, it sends a stop signal. The liquid level sensor 36 is located inside the beaker 2. An adjustment mechanism 4 is located on the base plate 1 and is used to adjust the sensing height of the liquid level sensor 36.

[0039] Furthermore, the water replenishment mechanism 3 also includes a water replenishment tank 31, a support component, a water pump 32, a controller 33, a water delivery pipe 35, and a load-bearing component. The water replenishment tank 31 facilitates the storage of replenished water, making it easier to replenish water. The water pump 32 is electrically connected to an external power source via an external switch. The water pump 32 facilitates the extraction of water from the water replenishment tank 31. The controller 33 controls the on / off operation of the water pump 32. When the liquid level sensor 36 inside the beaker 2 detects a lack of water, it sends an electrical signal to the controller 33, which then controls the water pump 32 to start / stop. The system automatically replenishes water by pumping water from the water tank 31 into beaker 2, reducing the workload of operators. The pump controller 33 converts collected data into electrical signals and transmits them to its microprocessor. Upon receiving the data from the sensors, the microprocessor processes it according to a preset program and logic. This processing includes data parsing, calculation, and comparison to determine the operating status of the pump system and whether control is required. Based on the data processing results, the microprocessor sends control commands to the control output module, which then controls the pump's start, stop, and speed adjustment. The pump controller 33 can also display the operating status and parameters of the pump system via a display module, facilitating real-time monitoring and management. The water pipe 35 facilitates water delivery into beaker 2. The water tank 31 is located at the top of the base plate 1, and the support is located at the bottom of the water tank 31. The water tank 31 is connected to the base plate 1 via the support. The water pump 32 is installed outside the water supply tank 31. A fixed pipe 34 is fixedly sleeved at the end of the water pump 32. The end of the fixed pipe 34 is sleeved with the water supply tank 31. The controller 33 is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1. The controller 33 is electrically connected to the water pump 32. The liquid level sensor 36 is electrically connected to the controller 33. One end of the water supply pipe 35 is fixedly sleeved to the other end of the water pump 32. The other end of the water supply pipe 35 is located inside the beaker 2. The liquid level sensor 36 is located on the side of the water supply pipe 35. The carrier is located outside the water supply pipe 35.

[0040] Specifically, the support components include a support leg 37 and a placement plate 38. The support leg 37 is used to support the water tank 31, and the placement plate 38 is used to support the support leg 37. The top of the support leg 37 is fixedly connected to the water tank 31, and the placement plate 38 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support leg 37. The top of the placement plate 38 is threaded with a mounting bolt, which facilitates the installation and removal of the placement plate 38. One end of the mounting bolt is threadedly connected to the base plate 1.

[0041] Specifically, the load-bearing components include a support frame 39 and a fixed leg 310. The support frame 39 provides bottom support for the water pipe 35 to increase its stability. The fixed leg 310 provides support for the support frame 39. The support frame 39 is fitted over the outside of the water pipe 35, and the fixed leg 310 is fixedly connected between the support frame 39 and the base plate 1.

[0042] Furthermore, the adjustment mechanism 4 includes an adjustment frame 41, a support plate 42, and a locking pin 44. The adjustment frame 41 is L-shaped, which is beneficial for supporting the liquid level sensor 36. The support plate 42 facilitates the sliding of the adjustment frame 43 inside it, making it easy to slide and support the support plate 42. The locking pin 44 helps to limit the relative position of the adjustment frame 43 and the support plate 42, thereby helping to fix the height of the liquid level sensor 36 and adapt to the height adjustment of the liquid level sensor 36. The adjustment frame 41 is fixedly connected to the side of the liquid level sensor 36, and the adjustment frame 43 is fixedly connected to the side of the adjustment frame 41, which helps to drive the adjustment frame 41 to slide on the support plate 42 to adjust the height of the liquid level sensor 36. The support plate 42 is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1, and the support plate 42 is slidably inserted into the inner cavity of the adjustment frame 43. The locking pin 44 is threadedly inserted into the side of the adjustment frame 43, and one end of the locking pin 44 is in contact with the support plate 42.

[0043] Specifically, the adjustment mechanism 4 also includes a connecting cylinder 45 and an anti-detachment ring 46. The connecting cylinder 45, the anti-detachment ring 46, and the connecting ring 47 help to limit the position of the locking pin 44, preventing the locking pin 44 from detaching from the adjustment frame 43 at will, thus preventing loss. The connecting cylinder 45 is fixedly connected to the side of the adjustment frame 43, the locking pin 44 is located inside the connecting cylinder 45, the connecting ring 47 is fixedly embedded in the inner cavity of the connecting cylinder 45, the locking pin 44 and the inner cavity of the connecting ring 47 are slidably inserted and connected, and the anti-detachment ring 46 is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the locking pin 44.
