Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The embodiments disclosed herein relate to the field of testing instrument technology, and more specifically, to an edible oil quality testing instrument. Background Technology
[0002] Edible oil is an indispensable food ingredient in daily life. It comes in a variety of types and has a wide range of uses. Edible oil is generally liquid at room temperature. Most common edible oils are vegetable oils, including peanut oil, olive oil, and soybean oil. Edible oil is not only an essential ingredient for cooking, but also an important source of fatty acids and nutrients for the human body.
[0003] Although cooking oil is indispensable in people's lives, people lack sufficient awareness of the hygiene and safety of cooking oil. Some cooking oils may change due to improper storage. Some vendors use cheap industrial oils to reduce production costs, which greatly harms people's health.
[0004] Therefore, before edible oils are put on the market, samples need to be tested using a testing instrument to determine their quality. The testing instrument is inserted into the sample to measure its effectiveness. Some edible oils require heating to a certain temperature before testing to assess their quality at different temperatures. Furthermore, the duration the instrument remains inserted in the oil varies, ranging from a few seconds to several minutes before being removed.
[0005] Handheld detectors require staff to hold them while conducting tests. If the oil being tested is at a high temperature, it may cause burns to the staff's hands. Furthermore, if the testing time for the edible oil is long, the staff may experience fatigue from holding it for an extended period. Utility Model Content
[0006] To overcome the above-mentioned defects, the embodiments of this disclosure provide an edible oil quality tester to solve the technical problem in the prior art that when testing edible oil, it is laborious for staff to hold the tester by hand, especially when the temperature of the edible oil to be tested is high or the testing time is long.
[0007] According to one aspect, at least one embodiment of this disclosure provides an edible oil quality tester, including a tester body, a movable frame, a lifting assembly, a rotating assembly, and a connecting frame. Two movable frames are provided. The lifting assembly is disposed on the two movable frames and is used to adjust the height of the tester body.

The reciprocating screw is rotatably installed inside the support cover and a matching screw nut is installed on the reciprocating screw. The handwheel is coaxially connected to the reciprocating screw via a drive shaft. The synchronization assembly is located on the other moving frame.
[0009] Furthermore, the synchronization component includes a second support cover, a slide bar, and a slider. The second support cover is fixedly mounted on another of the movable frames, the slide bar is fixedly mounted inside the second support cover, and the slider is slidably mounted on the slide bar.
[0010] Furthermore, the rotating assembly includes a rotating shaft, a placement frame, a drive gear ring, a drive gear, and a fixing assembly. The rotating shaft is rotatably mounted on the side of both the lead screw nut and the slider. The placement frame is fixedly mounted on the bottom end of the lead screw nut. The drive gear ring is fixedly mounted on one of the rotating shafts. The drive gear is rotatably mounted on the placement frame via a transmission shaft, and the drive gear ring meshes with the drive gear. The fixing assembly is disposed on the movable frame.
[0011] Furthermore, the fixing assembly includes a fixing plate, a fixing ring, a fixing rod, and a support frame. The fixing plate is fixedly installed on both sides of the movable frame, the fixing ring is fixedly installed on the rotating shaft, and the outer side wall of the fixing ring has two fixing grooves. The fixing rod is slidably installed through the fixing plate, and the bottom end of the fixing rod is adapted to the fixing groove. The support frame is fixedly installed on the top end of the fixing rod, and the top end of the fixing plate has two slots adapted to the bottom end of the support frame.
[0012] Furthermore, the mounting component includes a mounting bracket and a bolt. The mounting bracket is coaxially connected to the rotating shaft. Both the mounting bracket and the side of the detector body are provided with threaded holes, and the bolt is threadedly installed in the threaded holes.
[0013] To further protect the meshing of the drive gear and the drive gear ring, a protective cover is detachably installed on the lead screw nut, and both the drive gear and the drive gear ring are located inside the protective cover.
[0014] To facilitate the movement of the mobile frame, the bottom of each mobile frame is equipped with casters, and the casters have a self-locking function.
[0015] The beneficial effects of the embodiments disclosed herein are as follows:
[0016] 1. In this disclosure, when testing edible oil, the detector body can be mounted on the rotating assembly via the mounting component, and the rotating assembly can be used to place it vertically.

[0032] Furthermore, in the description of this application, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used only to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0033] like Figures 1-6 As shown, an edible oil quality tester according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is provided, including a tester body 1, a movable frame 2, a lifting component, a rotating component, and a connecting frame 3. Two movable frames 2 are provided. The lifting component is provided on the two movable frames 2 and is used to drive the tester body 1 to adjust its height. The rotating component is provided on the lifting component, and the tester body 1 is mounted on the rotating component by a mounting component. The connecting frame 3 is fixedly installed on the top of the two movable frames 2, and a push handle 4 is fixedly installed on the top of the connecting frame 3 to drive the two movable frames 2 to move to the test point.
[0034] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, when testing edible oil, the lifting assembly first moves the mounting component to a certain position to facilitate the installation of the testing instrument body 1. The lifting assembly includes a support cover 5, a reciprocating screw 6, a handwheel 8, and a synchronization assembly. The support cover 5 is fixedly installed on the side of one of the movable frames 2. The reciprocating screw 6 is rotatably installed inside the support cover 5, and a matching screw nut 7 is installed on the reciprocating screw 6. The handwheel 8 is coaxially connected to the reciprocating screw 6 via a drive shaft. The synchronization assembly is located on another movable frame 2 and includes a support cover 9, a slide rod 10, and a slider 11. The support cover 9 is fixedly installed on the other movable frame 2, the slide rod 10 is fixedly installed inside the support cover 9, and the slider 11 is slidably installed on the slide rod 10. The assembly includes a mounting bracket 21 and bolts 22. The mounting bracket 21 is coaxially connected to the rotating shaft 12. Both the mounting bracket 21 and the side of the instrument body 1 are provided with threaded holes, and the bolts 22 are threaded into the threaded holes. Specifically, rotating the handwheel 8 causes the reciprocating screw 6 to rotate within the support cover 5, thereby causing the screw nut 7 to move on the reciprocating screw 6. It should be noted that the surface of the reciprocating screw 6 is machined with a special helical groove, so the screw nut 7 is fitted on the outside of the reciprocating screw 6. The inner wall is machined with a protrusion that matches the helical groove of the reciprocating screw 6, and the two form a meshing pair. This is a known technology and will not be described in detail. Then, the other end moves the two mounting brackets 21 to the same position by sliding the slider 11 on the slide rod 10.
[0035] After the movement is complete, insert the detector body 1 horizontally into the two mounting brackets 21, and thread the bolts 22 into the threaded holes of the mounting brackets 21 and the detector body to fix the detector body 1.
[0036] like Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, after fixing, the detector body 1 is rotated to a vertical position using a rotating assembly. The rotating assembly includes a rotating shaft 12, a placement frame 13, a drive gear ring 14, a drive gear 16, and a fixing assembly. The rotating shaft 12 is rotatably mounted on the sides of both the lead screw nut 7 and the slider 11. The placement frame 13 is fixedly mounted on the bottom end of the lead screw nut 7. The drive gear ring 14 is fixedly mounted on one of the rotating shafts 12. The drive gear 16 is rotatably mounted on the placement frame 13 via a transmission shaft 15, and the drive gear ring 14 meshes with the drive gear 16. The fixing assembly is designed with… The fixed assembly, which is placed on the movable frame 2, includes a fixed plate 17, a fixed ring 18, a fixed rod 19, and a support frame 20. Fixed plates 17 are fixedly installed on both sides of the movable frame 2. A fixed ring 18 is fixedly installed on the rotating shaft 12. Two fixed grooves are opened on the outer side wall of the fixed ring 18. The fixed rod 19 is slidably installed on the fixed plate 17. The bottom end of the fixed rod 19 is adapted to the fixed groove. The support frame 20 is fixedly installed on the top end of the fixed rod 19. Two slots are opened on the top end of the fixed plate 17 that are adapted to the bottom end of the support frame 20.
[0037] Specifically, it should be added that a throttle is fixedly installed at the bottom of the drive shaft 15. By rotating the throttle, the drive shaft 15 and the drive gear 16 are rotated. The drive gear 16 drives the drive gear ring 14, which meshes with it, to rotate. The drive gear ring 14 drives the rotating shaft 12 to rotate, thereby rotating the detector body 1 to a vertical position. After the detector body 1 is rotated to a vertical position, the sliding fixing rod 19 is moved down and inserted into one of the fixing slots of the fixing ring 18, thereby fixing the rotating shaft 12. At this time, the detector body 1 is placed vertically. After the test is completed, it can be rotated to a horizontal position for easy subsequent movement. After the detector body 1 is rotated to a horizontal position, the fixing rod 19 can be moved down and inserted into another fixing slot of the fixing ring 18. At this time, the bottom end of the support frame 20 can be inserted into the slot of the fixing plate 17. A protective cover 23 is detachably installed on the lead screw nut 7, and both the drive gear 16 and the drive gear ring 14 are located inside the protective cover 23, which can protect the meshing of the drive gear 16 and the drive gear ring 14.
[0038] Working principle: When testing edible oil, first insert the detector body 1 into the two mounting brackets 21, then thread the bolts 22 into the threaded holes of the mounting brackets 21 and the detector body 1 for fixation. After fixation, turn the handle to drive the transmission shaft 15 and the drive gear 16 to rotate. The drive gear 16 drives the drive gear ring 14 that meshes with it to rotate. The drive gear ring 14 drives the rotating shaft 12 to rotate, thereby driving the detector body 1 to rotate to the vertical position. After the detector body 1 rotates to the vertical position, the sliding fixing rod 19 moves down and inserts it into one of the fixing grooves of the fixing ring 18, thereby fixing the rotating shaft 12.
[0039] Then, turn the handwheel 8. The handwheel 8 drives the reciprocating screw 6 to rotate within the support cover 5, thereby driving the screw nut 7 to move on the reciprocating screw 6. Under the connection of the detector body 1, the slider 11 moves synchronously on the slide rod 10. First, move the detector body 1 upward because the bottom of the moving frame 2 is equipped with universal wheels 24, and the universal wheels 24 have a self-locking function. Then, push the push handle 4 on the connecting frame 3 to push the detector body 1 above the edible oil to be tested. When testing the edible oil, a portion of the edible oil can be placed into the measuring cylinder. Then, move the detector body 1 above the measuring cylinder, and then turn the handwheel 8 to move the detector body 1 downward so that it can be inserted into the measuring cylinder for testing the edible oil. During testing, lock the universal wheels 24 to prevent the device from moving during testing.
[0040] The bottom of the detector body 1 is equipped with a sensor probe. After the probe is inserted into the cooking oil, the patch is a near-infrared spectral patch. When the probe is inserted into the cooking oil, infrared light shines into the oil, and the molecular vibration generates a characteristic absorption spectrum. The spectrum is transmitted back to the detector body 1 via optical fiber for analysis, and then the detection data is displayed on the screen of the detector body 1.
[0041] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this disclosure and are not intended to limit it. Although this disclosure has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this disclosure without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this disclosure, and all such modifications and substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this disclosure.
