Description

A device for detecting sediment content in water erosion detection Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hydrological detection technology, specifically a device for detecting sediment content in water erosion. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, many testing devices require drying pretreatment of samples containing moisture to ensure accuracy when processing sediment samples. However, existing drying processes have several problems: on the one hand, there is a lack of effective water level monitoring mechanisms, making it difficult to determine whether the moisture in the sample has been completely dried. If the drying is incomplete, residual moisture will interfere with optical or other detection methods of sediment content, leading to data deviation. On the other hand, over-drying may cause the organic matter in the sediment to evaporate, which will also affect the authenticity and reliability of subsequent test data.

[0003] Therefore, this invention provides a mud and sand content detection device for water erosion detection to solve the problems mentioned above. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a mud and sand content detection device for water erosion detection, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A device for detecting sediment content in water erosion includes a base, a drying tank mounted on the upper surface of the base, a heating tank slidably connected inside the drying tank, a warning mechanism for water drying installed inside the heating tank, a pressure relief mechanism for automatic pressure relief slidably connected to the upper surface of the drying tank, a heating component mounted on the lower surface of the drying tank, and a heating chamber opened inside the drying tank.

[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the warning mechanism includes an alarm and a float plate one. The float plate one is slidably connected inside the heating tank. A float plate two is slidably connected inside the float plate one. A fixing block is installed inside the float plate one. A contact switch is installed inside the fixing block. The contact switch is located directly below the float plate two. The contact switch and the control terminal of the alarm are electrically connected. The alarm is installed on the front of the drying tank.

[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model, a triangular plate is installed on the upper surface of the float plate.

[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model, an annular protective plate is slidably connected inside the fixing block, and the upper surface of the annular protective plate is installed on the lower surface of the float plate.

[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the pressure relief mechanism includes a protective cover, which is slidably connected to the top of the drying tank. The outer surface of the protective cover has multiple sets of vent holes, and a U-shaped limiting frame is installed on the upper surface of the drying tank. The top of the inner wall of the U-shaped limiting frame is located at the top of the protective cover.

[0011] As a further improvement of this invention, an annular guide plate is installed at the bottom of the inner wall of the heating chamber.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] 1. In use, the rising water inside the heating tank causes float plate one to float inside the heating tank, and float plate two to slide upwards inside the slot of float plate one. This disconnects the lower surface of float plate two from the contact switch. When the water inside the heating tank is nearly dried, float plate one and float plate two return to their original positions after losing buoyancy. This triggers the contact switch on float plate two, activating the alarm and alerting the staff to shut down the heating components in time and use the residual heat to dry the remaining water inside the heating tank. This prevents the organic matter in the mud and sand from being dried and evaporated, which could lead to errors in subsequent test data. Therefore, the accuracy of the device in the testing process is improved.

[0014] 2. When this utility model is used, the protective cover is slidably connected to the groove inside the drying tank. As the air pressure inside the heating chamber increases, it pushes the protective cover to slide upward inside the groove of the drying tank. As the protective cover moves upward, the high-temperature gas accumulated inside the heating chamber is discharged into the heating chamber through the exhaust hole inside the protective cover, thereby completing the automatic depressurization of the heating chamber.

[0020] 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.

[0021] Please refer to Figures 1-4. In this embodiment of the present invention, a mud and sand content detection device for water erosion detection includes a base 1. A drying tank 2 is mounted on the upper surface of the base 1. A heating tank 6 is slidably connected inside the drying tank 2. An alarm mechanism 7 for warning of water drying is installed inside the heating tank 6. A pressure relief mechanism 4 for automatic pressure relief is slidably connected to the upper surface of the drying tank 2. A heating component 5 is mounted on the lower surface of the drying tank 2. A heating chamber 8 is opened inside the drying tank 2. The heating component 5 includes a hot air blower and three sets of L-shaped air ducts. The hot air blower is installed on the lower surface of the drying tank 2. A groove is opened on the lower surface of the drying tank 2. The L-shaped air ducts are installed inside the groove and installed at the air outlet of the hot air blower. Inside, the inner wall of the L-shaped air duct has multiple sets of exhaust ports, all located inside the heating chamber 8. Two sets of handles 3 are installed on the upper surface of the heating tank 6. Specifically, the water inside the heating tank 6 causes the warning mechanism 7 to float inside the heating tank 6. When the water inside the heating tank 6 is nearly dry, the warning mechanism 7 resets after losing buoyancy, thereby triggering the opening of the warning device at the outer end of the drying tank 2. This prompts the staff to shut down the heating component 5 in time and use the residual heat to dry the remaining water inside the heating tank 6, thus avoiding the evaporation of organic matter in the mud and sand, which could lead to errors in subsequent test data. Therefore, the accuracy of the device in the testing process is improved.

[0022] The warning mechanism 7 includes an alarm 701 and a float plate 702. The float plate 702 is slidably connected inside the heating tank 6. A second float plate 705 is slidably connected inside the float plate 702. A fixing block 703 is installed inside the float plate 702, and a contact switch 704 is installed inside the fixing block 703. The contact switch 704 is located directly below the second float plate 705. The contact switch 704 is electrically connected to the control terminal of the alarm 701. The alarm 701 is installed on the front of the drying tank 2. Slots are provided on both the left and right sides of the heating tank 6. Float 1 702 is slidably connected to the two sets of slots inside the heating tank 6. The lower surface of float 1 702 has a slot. Float 2 705 is slidably connected to the slot inside float 1 702. Fixing block 703 is installed inside the slot of float 1 702. Two sets of connecting blocks 706 are installed inside the slot of float 1 702. Spring 707 is installed on the upper surface of connecting block 706. The top of spring 707 is installed on the lower surface of float 2 705. The upper surface of fixing block 703 has a groove. Contact switch 704 is installed inside the groove of fixing block 703.

[0023] Specifically, when the detected water is poured into the heating tank 6, the rising water inside the heating tank 6 causes float plate 1 702 to float inside the heating tank 6, and causes float plate 2 705 to slide upwards inside the slot of float plate 1 702. This disconnects the lower surface of float plate 2 705 from the contact switch 704. When the water inside the heating tank 6 is nearly dried out, float plate 1 702 and float plate 2 705 return to their original positions due to lack of buoyancy. This causes float plate 2 705 to trigger the contact switch 704, activating the alarm 701 and issuing a warning, thereby prompting the staff to shut down the heating component 5 in time. The residual heat is used to dry the remaining water inside the heating tank 6, thus preventing the organic matter in the silt from being evaporated and causing errors in subsequent test data, thereby improving the accuracy of the device during the testing process. When silt accumulates in the slot of float plate 1 702 and blocks the sliding of float plate 2 705, the extension and contraction characteristics of the two sets of springs 707 can automatically pull float plate 2 705 back to its original position. The warning mechanism 7 automatically alerts the user that the water inside the heating tank 6 is drying, so that the staff does not need to check the height of the water accumulation inside the heating tank 6 at close range, thereby improving the safety of the device during use.

[0024] A triangular plate 11 is installed on the upper surface of the float plate 702. Specifically, the triangular plate 11 is installed on the upper end of the float plate 702 so that the mud and sand accumulated on the upper end of the float plate 702 can slide down into the interior of the heating tank 6, thereby preventing the mud and sand from accumulating on the upper end of the float plate 702 and causing the float plate 702 to fail to float properly during use.

[0025] An annular protective plate 10 is slidably connected inside the fixing block 703. The upper surface of the annular protective plate 10 is installed on the lower surface of the float 705. An annular groove is formed on the upper surface of the fixing block 703. The annular protective plate 10 is slidably connected inside the annular groove of the fixing block 703. The annular protective plate 10 is sleeved on the outer end of the contact switch 704. Specifically, by sleeved on the outer end of the contact switch 704, the annular protective plate 10 provides shielding protection for the contact switch 704, thereby improving the service life of the warning mechanism 7. By installing the upper surface of the annular protective plate 10 on the lower surface of the float 705 and slidably connecting it inside the annular groove of the fixing block 703, the float 705 moves up and down simultaneously, pushing the annular protective plate 10 to slide up and down inside the annular groove of the fixing block 703, thereby preventing the annular protective plate 10 from obstructing the normal use of the float 705.

[0026] The pressure relief mechanism 4 includes a protective cover 402, which is slidably connected to the top of the drying tank 2. The outer surface of the protective cover 402 has multiple sets of exhaust holes. A U-shaped limiting frame 401 is installed on the upper surface of the drying tank 2. The top of the inner wall of the U-shaped limiting frame 401 is located at the top of the protective cover 402. A groove is provided on the upper surface of the drying tank 2. The protective cover 402 is slidably connected to the inside of the groove of the drying tank 2. The bottom of the protective cover 402 is located inside the heating chamber 8.

[0027] Specifically, the protective cover 402 is slidably connected to the groove inside the drying tank 2. As the air pressure inside the heating chamber 8 increases, the protective cover 402 is pushed upward inside the groove of the drying tank 2. As the protective cover 402 moves upward, the high-temperature gas accumulated inside the heating chamber 8 is discharged from the heating chamber 8 through the exhaust hole inside the protective cover 402, thereby completing the automatic depressurization of the heating chamber 8. The top of the inner wall of the U-shaped limiting frame 401 is located directly above the protective cover 402, which restricts the upward movement path of the protective cover 402, thereby minimizing the possibility of the protective cover 402 moving out of the groove inside the drying tank 2 during the upward movement.

[0028] An annular guide plate 9 is installed at the bottom of the inner wall of the heating chamber 8. The annular guide plate 9 is located on the air blowing path of a set of exhaust ports at the bottom of the L-shaped air duct. Specifically, by positioning the annular guide plate 9 on the air blowing path of a set of exhaust ports at the bottom of the L-shaped air duct, the annular guide plate 9 guides the air blowing path of the set of exhaust ports at the bottom to the inner wall of the heating chamber 8. This avoids the exhaust ports at the bottom canceling each other out during synchronous air blowing, which would prevent the inner wall of the heating chamber 8 from being fully heated.

[0029] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0030] In use, the rising water inside the heating tank 6 causes float plate 1 702 to float inside the heating tank 6, and causes float plate 2 705 to slide upwards inside the slot of float plate 1 702, disconnecting the lower surface of float plate 2 705 from the contact switch 704. When the water inside the heating tank 6 is nearly dried, float plate 1 702 and float plate 2 705 return to their original positions after losing buoyancy. This causes float plate 2 705 to trigger the contact switch 704 to activate the alarm 701, thus prompting the staff to shut down the heating component 5 in time and use the residual heat to dry the remaining water inside the heating tank 6. The protective cover 402 slides... The kinetic connection is inside the groove of the drying tank 2, so that as the air pressure inside the heating chamber 8 increases, it pushes the protective cover 402 to slide upward inside the groove of the drying tank 2. As the protective cover 402 moves upward, the high-temperature gas accumulated inside the heating chamber 8 is discharged from the heating chamber 8 through the exhaust hole inside the protective cover 402, thereby completing the automatic depressurization of the heating chamber 8. The position of the annular guide plate 9 is located on the air blowing path of a set of exhaust ports at the bottom inside the L-shaped air duct, so that the annular guide plate 9 guides the air blowing path of the set of exhaust ports at the bottom to the inner wall of the heating chamber 8.

[0031] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model, should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
