Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of lubricating fluid storage devices, and in particular relates to a liquid level control structure for storing metal lubricating fluid. Background Technology
[0002] Metal lubricants are industrial liquids used to reduce friction and wear on metal parts during processing and operation, while also providing cooling, rust prevention, and cleaning functions. They are stored because metal lubricants need to be kept on hand for extended periods to meet continuous production needs. Direct exposure makes them susceptible to contamination, evaporation, or deterioration, affecting their performance. Storage ensures stable performance and continuous supply. Liquid level control allows for real-time monitoring of the storage volume, preventing overflows and environmental pollution caused by excessively high levels, while also ensuring the safe operation of storage equipment and maintaining smooth production processes.
[0003] However, in the existing control structure, it is difficult to stop the filling directly when the liquid level reaches the required level. This results in excessive metal lubricant being poured into the storage equipment, causing liquid overflow and waste, as well as pollution of the surrounding environment and equipment. Moreover, the excess liquid will increase the pressure of the storage equipment, affect the service life of the equipment, and even cause safety problems such as leakage. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a liquid level control structure for metal lubricating fluid storage. By setting a stop-flow part, it solves the problem that in the use of existing control structures, it is difficult to stop the filling directly when the liquid level reaches the required level, which leads to excessive filling of metal lubricating fluid into the storage equipment, causing liquid overflow and waste, and polluting the surrounding environment and equipment. Moreover, the excess liquid will also increase the pressure of the storage equipment, affect the service life of the equipment, and even cause safety problems such as leakage.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0006] This utility model relates to a liquid level control structure for storing metal lubricating fluid, comprising an oil storage tank and an oil outlet pipe with a valve connected to the bottom of the oil storage tank, and further comprising: a flow-stopping part disposed inside the oil storage tank; an oil inlet part mounted on the oil storage tank; the flow-stopping part comprising a flow-stopping assembly mounted on the inner wall of the oil storage tank; and a reset assembly mounted on the flow-stopping assembly; the flow-stopping assembly comprising two sliding rods fixedly connected to the inner wall of the oil storage tank, two connecting rods slidably connected to the outer wall of each of the two sliding rods, two stop blocks fixedly connected to the bottom of several connecting rods, and two adapter blocks fixedly connected to the bottom of each of the two stop blocks; a floating element is disposed inside the oil storage tank; the two adapter blocks are mirror images of each other.
[0007] Furthermore, the oil inlet includes a diversion assembly mounted on the oil storage tank; and a feeding assembly mounted on the diversion assembly; the diversion assembly is used for diverting oil, and the feeding assembly is used for inleting oil.
[0008] Furthermore, the reset assembly includes several stop bars fixedly connected to the inner wall of the oil storage tank, and reset components are provided on the two slide bars; the side of the several stop bars away from the inner wall of the oil storage tank is in contact with several connecting rods respectively.
[0009] Furthermore, the diversion assembly includes an inlet hose fixedly connected to the top of the oil storage tank, the bottom of the inlet hose extending into the oil storage tank, and a plurality of diversion pipes connected to the outer wall of the inlet hose. The bottom of the plurality of diversion pipes is connected to a circular ring, and the bottom of the circular ring is connected to a plurality of connecting pipes. There are four connecting pipes and four diversion pipes, all of which are distributed in a circumferential array.
[0010] Furthermore, the feeding assembly includes a second ring connected to the bottom of several branch pipes, and several inlet holes are opened on the outer wall of the several second rings; there are eight inlet holes, which are distributed in a circumferential array on the second rings.
[0011] Furthermore, the floating component includes a float plate slidably connected to the outer wall of several connecting pipes, and several adapter blocks II are fixedly connected to the top of the float plate.

[0013] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] 1. By setting up a flow-stopping part, the floating plate can be linked with the rise of the liquid level. Through the contact and interaction between the adapter blocks, the stop block is driven to approach and clamp the oil inlet hose, so that the oil circuit is automatically blocked when the liquid level reaches the standard, thereby directly stopping the oil injection. This avoids the overflow and waste caused by excessive metal lubricant, as well as pollution of the surrounding environment and equipment. At the same time, it reduces the pressure of excess liquid on the storage equipment, extends the service life of the equipment, reduces the risk of safety problems such as leakage, and ensures the accuracy and safety of the oil injection process.
[0015] 2. By setting up an oil inlet, the lubricating oil can be diverted and guided through multiple paths when injected into the oil storage tank, avoiding direct impact of liquid on the bottom or local areas of the tank, reducing splashing and air bubbles generated during injection, and allowing the lubricating oil to be more evenly distributed in the tank, preventing impurity deposition or uneven composition caused by local accumulation. It can also reduce the wear and tear on the tank body caused by liquid impact, protect the internal structure of the oil storage tank, and ensure the stability and performance of subsequent lubricating oil storage.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model is a liquid level control structure for storing metal lubricating fluid, including an oil storage tank 111 and an oil outlet pipe 112 with a valve connected to the bottom of the oil storage tank 111. It also includes: a flow stop 2, which is disposed inside the oil storage tank 111; and an oil inlet 3, which is installed on the oil storage tank 111.
[0027] The flow-stopping part 2 includes a flow-stopping assembly 21, which is installed on the inner wall of the oil storage tank 111; and a reset assembly 22, which is installed on the flow-stopping assembly 21. The flow-stopping assembly 21 includes two sliding rods 211 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the oil storage tank 111, and two connecting rods 212 slidably connected to the outer wall of each of the two sliding rods 211. Two stop blocks 213 are fixedly connected to the bottom of several connecting rods 212, and two stop blocks 213 are fixedly connected to the bottom of each of the two stop blocks 213. The first adapter block 214 is provided with a floating component inside the oil storage tank 111; the two adapter blocks 214 are mirror images of each other; the reset assembly 22 includes several stop rods 221 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the oil storage tank 111, and reset components are provided on the two sliding rods 211; the side of the several stop rods 221 away from the inner wall of the oil storage tank 111 respectively contacts several connecting rods 212; the floating component includes a float plate 215 slidably connected to the outer wall of several connecting pipes 314, and the top of the float plate 215 is fixedly connected to... A plurality of adapter blocks 216 are connected, the tops of which are respectively adapted to a plurality of adapter blocks 214; the outer wall of the float plate 215 is in contact with the inner wall of the oil storage tank 111; the reset component includes two reset springs 222 respectively sleeved on two slide rods 211; the side of the plurality of reset springs 222 away from the oil inlet hose 311 is fixedly connected to the oil storage tank 111, and the side of the plurality of reset springs 222 near the oil inlet hose 311 is fixedly connected to a plurality of connecting rods 212. By setting the flow stop 2, the float 215 can rise with the liquid level, and through the contact and interaction between the adapter blocks, the stop block 213 can be driven to approach and clamp the oil inlet hose 311. This achieves automatic blocking of the oil circuit when the liquid level reaches the target, thereby directly stopping the oil injection. This avoids overflow and waste caused by excessive metal lubricant, as well as pollution of the surrounding environment and equipment.

The diversion assembly 31 is used for diverting oil, and the feeding assembly 32 is used for feeding oil. The diversion assembly 31 includes an oil inlet hose 311 fixedly connected to the top of the oil storage tank 111. The bottom of the oil inlet hose 311 extends into the oil storage tank 111. A plurality of diversion pipes 312 are connected to the outer wall of the oil inlet hose 311. A circular ring 313 is connected to the bottom of the plurality of diversion pipes 312. A plurality of connecting pipes 314 are connected to the bottom of the circular ring 313. There are four connecting pipes 314 and four diversion pipes 312, and they are all arranged in a circumferential array. The feeding assembly 32 includes a second annulus 321 connected to the bottom of several diversion pipes 312. Several inlet holes 322 are opened on the outer wall of the several second annulus 321. There are eight inlet holes 322, which are distributed in a circumferential array on the second annulus 321. By setting the oil inlet 3, the lubricating oil can be diverted and guided through multiple paths when injected into the oil storage tank 111, avoiding direct impact of liquid on the bottom or local area of the tank, reducing splashing and bubbles generated during injection, and allowing the lubricating oil to be more evenly dispersed in the tank, preventing impurity deposition or uneven composition caused by local accumulation. It can also reduce the wear of the tank body caused by liquid impact, protect the internal structure of the oil storage tank 111, and ensure the stability and performance of subsequent lubricating oil storage.
[0029] A specific application of this embodiment is as follows: In use, the required amount of lubricating oil is first injected into the oil storage tank 111 through the oil inlet hose 311. The lubricating oil will first flow into the first annulus 313 through the diversion pipe 312, then flow into the second annulus 321 through the connecting pipe 314, and finally flow into the oil storage tank 111 through the circumferentially distributed inlet holes 322. As the oil is injected, when the surface of the lubricating oil contacts the float 215, the float 215 will float upwards, and the second adapter block 216 will move upwards accordingly. As the floating continues, when the second adapter block 216 contacts the first adapter block 214, the second adapter block 216 will continue to move upwards. When the two stop blocks 213 move, they will approach each other under the interaction of the first adapter block 214 and the second adapter block 216, and clamp the oil inlet hose 311 until the oil inlet hose 311 is clamped. At this time, the oil inlet hose 311 will no longer flow, and the oil injection can be stopped. During this process, the return spring 222 will be stretched. When it is necessary to take the lubricating oil in the oil storage tank 111, the valve on the oil outlet pipe 112 with valve can be opened to take the lubricating oil. As the lubricating oil is removed, the lubricating oil level in the oil storage tank 111 will drop. At this time, the float 215 will drive the second adapter block 216 to move downward, the return spring 222 will release the tension, and drive the two stop blocks 213 to reset.
