Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sulfuric acid production sampling technology, specifically to a sulfuric acid buffer tank sampling device. Background Technology

[0002] After sulfuric acid is produced, it is stored in sulfuric acid storage tanks. Before the sulfuric acid is sold, the finished sulfuric acid needs to be sampled daily by flowing into a buffer tank. After the sample passes the test, it is transferred from the buffer tank to a high-level tank for loading and sale. The existing sulfuric acid buffer tanks are usually hollow rectangular tanks with pipes on them. Flanges are welded to the pipes, and the cover plate is connected to the flange with bolts to seal the pipes. Currently, the sampling process is all done manually. The bolts connecting the cover plate and the flange need to be removed, and then a sampling tool such as a steel cylinder is used to insert into the sampling pipe to take sulfuric acid. During the sampling, workers come into direct contact with sulfuric acid, and there is a risk of inhaling sulfuric acid gas such as sulfur trioxide from the pipe opening. In addition, the sampling process is cumbersome, and after the sampling is completed, the bolts need to be tightened again to seal the pipes. Utility Model Content

[0015] The overflow trough 1 is welded with a pipe opening 15, and a flange 16 is welded to the pipe opening 15. The cover plate 2 is a circular plate, and the flange and the cover plate 2 are connected by bolts 17.

[0016] Further, see Figure 1 The sealing plate 2 has a mounting hole in the center; the liquid storage cylinder 3 is provided with a connecting pipe 18, the sealing element 5 is a sealing ring, the sealing ring is sleeved on the connecting pipe 18, the connecting pipe 18 is provided with a locking sleeve 19, the connecting pipe 18 passes through the mounting hole and connects with the locking sleeve 19 to connect the liquid storage cylinder 3 and the sealing plate 2.

[0017] Preferably, the connecting pipe 18 is a hollow cylindrical pipe, and the connecting pipe 18 and the locking sleeve 19 are connected by threads. After the connecting pipe 18 passes through the mounting hole, the sealing ring is put on the connecting pipe 18, and the locking sleeve 19 is threadedly connected to the connecting pipe 18, thereby installing the liquid storage cylinder 3 on the cover plate 2.

[0018] Preferably, the suction tube 4 is located inside the connecting tube 18 and is connected to the liquid storage cylinder 3.

[0019] Further, see Figure 1 The outer wall of the liquid storage cylinder 3 is provided with a capacity scale 20.

[0021] Further, see Figure 1 , 2 The draining component 6 includes an air inlet pipe 601 located at the top of the liquid storage cylinder 3 and a draining pipe 602 located at the bottom of the liquid storage cylinder 3. An air inlet valve 603 is provided on the air inlet pipe 601, and a draining valve 7 is located on the draining pipe 602.

[0022] Preferably, the connecting pipe 18 is provided with a retaining ring 604, and there is a gap between the retaining ring 604 and the liquid storage cylinder 3. After the connecting pipe 18 is connected to the locking sleeve 19, the locking sleeve 19 and the retaining ring 604 are respectively clamped on both sides of the sealing plate 2, and there is a gap between the liquid storage cylinder 3 and the sealing plate 2, which facilitates the installation of the drain pipe 602 and subsequent liquid extraction.

[0023] In the above setup, after negative pressure is generated in the negative pressure cylinder 9 and transmitted to the liquid storage cylinder 3 through the connecting pipe 11, the negative pressure in the liquid storage cylinder 3 causes the first one-way valve 8 in the suction pipe 4 to open. The liquid in the overflow tank 1 moves up from the suction pipe 4 into the liquid storage cylinder 3 for storage. The amount of liquid taken can be controlled according to the capacity scale 20 on the outer wall of the liquid storage cylinder 3. After the liquid is taken, the first one-way valve 8 is closed, the air inlet valve 603 is opened to allow external air to enter the liquid storage cylinder 3, and at the same time the drain valve 7 is opened to drain the liquid from the liquid storage cylinder 3 into the sampling cylinder through the drain pipe 602, thus completing the sampling.

[0024] Further, see Figure 1 , 2 The negative pressure component 10 includes a piston 1001 disposed inside the negative pressure cylinder 9 and a negative pressure rod 1002 disposed on the piston 1001, the negative pressure rod 1002 being threadedly connected to the negative pressure cylinder 9; the driving component 14 includes a driving disc 1401 connected to the negative pressure rod 1002 and a driving handle 1402 disposed on the driving disc 1401.

[0028] Preferably, the rain cover 25 is a hollow cylinder with one end open. The rain cover 25 is made of stretchable rubber material and is interference-fitted with the negative pressure cylinder 9.

[0029] In the above configuration, rotating the drive handle 1402 drives the drive disc 1401 to rotate, thereby driving the negative pressure rod 1002 to rotate. Under the action of the thread, the negative pressure rod 1002 moves upward, thereby driving the piston 1001 to move upward in the negative pressure cylinder 9. The first one-way valve 8 opens and the second one-way valve 13 closes. The liquid in the overflow tank 1 enters the storage cylinder 3 from the suction pipe 4. Reverse rotation of the drive handle 1402 drives the negative pressure rod 1002 to rotate. Under the action of the thread, the piston 1001 moves downward along the negative pressure cylinder 9. The second one-way valve 13 opens and the first one-way valve 8 closes. The gas in the negative pressure cylinder 9 is discharged from the exhaust pipe 12.

The rain cover 25 can shield the negative pressure rod 1002 and prevent rainwater from corroding the negative pressure rod 1002 and the screw hole 22.
