Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automated testing equipment technology, and more specifically, to a multi-functional pressure detection device for thermos cups. Background Technology
[0002] A thermos is a container with a sealed top and an internal vacuum insulation layer, usually made of stainless steel or ceramic. Its core principle is to insulate heat conduction and convection through a vacuum layer, thereby significantly slowing down heat loss from the internal liquid (such as water, coffee, etc.) to achieve long-term heat preservation or cold preservation. The quality indicators of a thermos include pressure resistance and flow characteristics. Pressure resistance is reflected in the fact that the thermos stores liquids such as hot water and carbonated beverages (such as cola and Sprite). Excessive pressure inside the container during use can easily lead to explosions, flying parts, and other safety hazards. Flow characteristics are reflected in thermos cups with straws and spouts. We aim to reasonably control the flow rate of thermos cups, evaluating the size of the straw and spout, and the seal between the straw and the cap from a structural design perspective. Insufficient seal between the straw and cap, or excessively large straws and spouts, make it difficult for users to drink water. Excessive flow can cause choking, especially for children. Similarly, excessively small straws and spouts result in small water intake and a less satisfying user experience. Therefore, manufacturers of thermos cups urgently need a comprehensive device to test the flow rate and pressure of thermos cups. Utility Model Content

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0010] This utility model discloses a multifunctional pressure detection device for thermos cups. It features a simple structure and ingenious design, including a workbench. The workbench is equipped with a gas storage tank, a vacuum generator, a solenoid valve, a pressure transmitter, a pressure control gauge, a first reversing valve, a second reversing valve, a collection bottle, a weighing module, and a fixing module. The gas storage tank is connected to the first reversing valve via a gas pipe. The first reversing valve is connected to the vacuum generator and the solenoid valve. The vacuum generator is connected to the solenoid valve via a valve. The solenoid valve is connected to the pressure transmitter. The pressure transmitter is connected to the pressure control gauge.

The second electronic scale is used to place the thermos cup, and the star-shaped vise is used to fix the thermos cup. When testing the pressure of a thermos, the thermos is placed in a star-shaped vise for fixation. Gas flows from the gas tank through the first reversing valve, solenoid valve, pressure transmitter, and pressure controller, connecting to the thermos. The gas pressure slowly increases until it reaches the set value on the pressure controller. Then, the solenoid valve closes the gas pipe, and the state of the thermos is observed to complete the pressure test. When testing the flow rate of a thermos, a thermos containing a measured amount of water is placed on a second electronic scale. Gas flows from the gas tank through the first reversing valve, vacuum generator, solenoid valve, pressure transmitter, and pressure controller, connecting to a collection bottle. The collection bottle is connected to the thermos. The vacuum generator converts positive pressure into negative pressure to provide suction. The gas pressure slowly increases until it reaches the negative pressure value set on the pressure controller. Then, the solenoid valve closes the gas pipe, and the water in the thermos is automatically drawn into the collection bottle by the negative pressure. The flow rate of the thermos is calculated by the weight of the water in the collection bottle and the time elapsed. Attached Figure Description

The workbench 10 is equipped with a gas storage tank 101, a vacuum generator 102, a solenoid valve 103, a pressure transmitter 104, a pressure control gauge 105, a first reversing valve 106, a second reversing valve 107, a collection bottle 108, a weighing module, and a fixing module. The gas storage tank 101 is connected to the first reversing valve 106 through a gas pipe. The first reversing valve 106 is connected to the vacuum generator 102 and the solenoid valve 103. The vacuum generator 102 is connected to the solenoid valve 103 through a valve. The solenoid valve 103 is connected to the pressure transmitter 104. The pressure transmitter 104 is connected to the pressure control gauge 105. The pressure control gauge 105 is connected to the second reversing valve 107. One end of the second reversing valve 107 is connected to the collection bottle 108. Two positive and negative pressure gas pipe lines are formed for testing the pressure and flow rate of the thermos cup 116.
[0023] Reference Figure 1-4As shown, the weighing module includes a first electronic scale 109 and a second electronic scale 110. A collection bottle 108 is placed on the first electronic scale 109. The first electronic scale 109 is used to weigh the water inside the collection bottle 108 and the water inside the thermos cup 116. Furthermore, a limiting plate 112 is provided on the workbench 10. The limiting plate 112 has two through holes, corresponding to the first electronic scale 109 and the second electronic scale 110 respectively. The through holes of the limiting plate 112 further fix the collection bottle 108 and the thermos cup 116. In addition, the weighing module also includes a positioning block, which is used to position the first electronic scale 109 and the second electronic scale 110 to prevent measurement data errors caused by movement of the first electronic scale 109 and the second electronic scale 110 during the test.
