[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water quality testing technology, specifically a device for determining the manganese content in water. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of water quality monitoring, accurate determination of manganese content in water is of great significance for assessing water safety and protecting human health. Currently, common methods for determining manganese content in water include ammonium persulfate spectrophotometry and atomic absorption spectrometry, and the corresponding measuring devices are constantly being developed. However, with increasingly stringent environmental monitoring requirements and the diversification of water quality testing scenarios, existing manganese content measuring devices are no longer sufficient to meet the demands for efficient and accurate detection.

[0003] Existing methods for determining manganese content in water sources typically employ spectrophotometry. However, in practice, spectrophotometry requires large instruments that are relatively inconvenient to carry, making it difficult to perform direct measurements of water samples in the field. Miniaturized spectrophotometers, on the other hand, lack sufficient sample storage and classification adjustment capabilities, resulting in a relatively poor balance between overall portability and sample collection, thus affecting the convenience of measurement and making field measurements inconvenient. Therefore, we propose a manganese content determination device for water to address these issues. Summary of the Invention

[0058] By setting the main body 2 of the spectrophotometer to a handheld portable spectrophotometer, the portability is relatively good. The number of sample cups 5 is no less than two. Multiple sample cups 5 can be used to collect and preserve water samples from different field sites, resulting in good multi-sample preservation.

[0059] Furthermore, the top of the mounting housing 1 is provided with a lifting handle 9, and the side of the mounting housing 1 is provided with a support shoulder strap 10;

The top end of the introduction sampling tube 61 is connected to the detection sample cup 5.

[0062] By setting up the sample import component 6, which includes an import sampling tube 61 and a flow guiding pump body 62, the import sampling tube 61 plays the role of water source sampling and extraction, and the flow guiding pump body 62 can play the role of pressurizing and guiding the extracted water source, making water sample sampling convenient.

[0063] Furthermore, a filter screen 63 is provided at the bottom of the inlet sampling tube 61. The inlet sampling tube 61 is a sampling hose and is hung on the mounting housing 1.

[0064] By setting up a filter screen 63, when sampling is performed by the inlet sampling tube 61, the filter screen 63 can filter the impurities such as stones in the water source. The filter screen 63 can isolate and filter these impurities, making it convenient for sampling. The inlet sampling tube 61 is a sampling hose, which allows the inlet sampling tube 61 to inject samples into different test sample cups 5 respectively. The sampling effect is good, and the sample distribution and storage are convenient.

[0065] Furthermore, the sample export assembly 7 includes an export sampling tube 71 and a micro pump body 72. The micro pump body 72 is fixedly installed on the side of the mounting housing 1, and the export sampling tube 71 is correspondingly installed on the flow guide end of the micro pump body 72. One end of the export sampling tube 71 is connected to the detection sample cup 5, and the other end of the export sampling tube 71 is set at the sampling end of the spectrophotometer body 2.

[0069] Furthermore, the guide end of the sample inlet component 6 is connected to the top of the sample cup 5, and the guide end of the sample outlet component 7 is connected to the bottom of the sample cup 5.

[0070] By setting the guide end of the sample inlet component 6 to be connected to the top of the test sample cup 5, and the guide end of the sample outlet component 7 to be connected to the bottom of the test sample cup 5, the sample inlet component 6 and the sample outlet component 7 can only inject or extract from a single test sample cup 5 at the same time, making extraction and injection stable and convenient.

[0071] It should be noted that all the devices in this apparatus are common devices on the market, and can be selected according to specific needs.

Those skilled in the art can easily implement it. It belongs to the prior art and will not be described in detail.

[0072] Working principle: The spectrophotometer body 2 can be installed and fixed on the photometer mounting port 3 provided on the top of the mounting housing 1. The installation and locking of the spectrophotometer body 2 is relatively convenient. The spectrophotometer body 2 is a handheld portable spectrophotometer that can measure the manganese content in water by spectrophotometry. The lifting handle 9 and the carrying shoulder strap 10 can be carried by hand and shoulder respectively, making it relatively convenient to carry.

[0073] The front of the housing 1 is equipped with a sample placement cavity 4, which can hold multiple sample cups 5. The sample inlet component 6 pressurizes and draws external water into the sample cups 5, and the sample outlet component 7 extracts the sample from the sample cups 5 and guides it to the detection end of the spectrophotometer body 2 to complete the sampling and detection. Multiple sample cups 5 can be used to collect and preserve water samples from different field sites. The reagent inlet tube 11 can introduce external reagents into the sample cups 5 for spectrophotometric measurement. The measurement is convenient and efficient. The control valve 8 acts as a sealing valve, making it difficult to see the water sample. This makes the overall device smaller and more portable, and facilitates the sampling and classification of field samples. The measurement speed is fast and the measurement is convenient.
