Detailed Implementation

[0018] The present invention will now be described more fully below with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which presently preferred embodiments of the invention are shown. However, the present invention may be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided for thoroughness and completeness and to fully convey the scope of the invention to those skilled in the art.

[0019] Example: An intelligent foaming control device, such as Figures 1-3As shown, the system includes a mounting housing 1, an upper housing 2, a CPU and drive circuit module 3, a concealed pump 4, a gas flow sensor 5, a flow pipe 6, a connecting pipe 7, a liquid flow sensor 8, a mixing housing 9, a water inlet 10, a delivery pipe 1001, a water flow sensor 11, a foaming effect sensor 12, a mounting plate 13, a voice recognizer 14, a touch screen 15, a face recognizer 16, indicator lights 17, an NFC reader / writer 18, and a QR code reader 19. The upper housing 2 is mounted on the mounting housing 1. The CPU and drive circuit module 3, the core control unit of the system, is installed inside the mounting housing 1. It is responsible for receiving data from various sensors, executing control algorithms, and driving actuators to achieve intelligent control and adjustment of the foaming process. The concealed pump 4 is installed inside the mounting housing 1. The concealed pump 4 is responsible for drawing liquid from external equipment and mixing it with gas through its internal structure to generate initial foam. Its closed design prevents leakage and improves operational safety and efficiency. A gas flow sensor 5 is installed in the center of the top surface of the concealed pump 4 to monitor the gas flow rate entering the pump in real time, ensuring accurate and controllable gas ratios. This sensor is one of the key sensors for achieving precise foaming. A flow pipe 6 is connected to the inlet of the concealed pump 4, and a connecting pipe 7 is also connected to the inlet. A liquid flow sensor 8 is installed in the middle of the connecting pipe 7 to monitor changes in the flow rate of the foam liquid within the connecting pipe 7, providing feedback control to ensure the stability and consistency of the mixing process. A mixing shell 9 is installed inside the mounting housing 1, where the foam liquid and clean water are finally mixed. The system is used to homogenize and optimize the structure of multi-component liquids to form the final foam product. The other end of the connecting pipe 7 is connected to the mixing shell 9. A water inlet 10 is installed inside the housing 1. When water needs to be added during the foaming process, it is responsible for drawing water from the storage device and delivering it to the connecting pipe through the delivery pipe 1001. The outlet of the water inlet 10 is connected to the delivery pipe 1001. A water flow sensor 11 is installed between the delivery pipe 1001 and the connecting pipe 7 to monitor the water flow in the delivery pipe 1001 in real time, ensuring that the water is added accurately in proportion and avoiding the impact of water fluctuation on foam quality. A foaming effect sensor 12 is installed on the mixing shell 9 to detect the final foam formed in the mixing shell and evaluate its density, bubble size, and uniformity. The system monitors key performance indicators such as performance and feeds the data back to the control system to form a closed-loop control. A mounting plate 13 is installed on the top of the upper casing 2, and a voice recognition unit 14 is mounted on the mounting plate 13. The voice recognition unit 14 is wired to the CPU and drive circuit module 3, receiving user voice commands for starting the system, setting parameters, or querying status, improving ease of operation and intelligence. A touch screen 15 is also mounted on the mounting plate 13, wired to the CPU and drive circuit module 3, providing a graphical user interface that supports parameter setting, status display, fault prompts, and other functions. It serves as an important interaction window between the user and the equipment. A face recognition unit 16 is also mounted on the mounting plate 13, wired to the CPU and drive circuit module 3.To implement authentication functionality and ensure that only authorized personnel can operate the system, enhancing device security and management access control, the mounting plate 13 is equipped with indicator lights 17, which are wired to the CPU and drive circuit module 3. These lights display the device's operating status (e.g., running, standby, alarm), providing intuitive status feedback for users to quickly assess the device's working condition. An NFC reader / writer 18 is also mounted on the mounting plate 13, connected to the CPU and drive circuit module 3. Operators can identify themselves by swiping an NFC card, and the system determines operating permissions based on the card information. Finally, a QR code reader 19 is installed on the mounting plate 13, connected to the CPU and drive circuit module 3. Operators can log in by scanning their personal QR code, simplifying the operation process.

[0020] When this device is needed, the operator first connects the flow pipe 6 to the external conveying equipment and connects the water inlet 10 to the liquid storage device to complete the installation and preparation of the pipeline system. After all external pipelines are connected and confirmed to be correct, the operator can authenticate their identity through the face recognition device 16, voice recognition device 14, NFC reader / writer 18, and QR code reader 19, log in to the system, and start the CPU and drive circuit module 3. At the same time, the operator can also set the initial parameters of each functional component through the touch screen 15. After the system confirms the settings, it can automatically execute the entire foaming process according to the preset program to achieve intelligent control. After startup, the concealed pump 4 starts working, drawing the base liquid from the conveying equipment through the flow pipe 6. This pump adopts advanced fluid dynamics design and high-performance sealing materials, enabling it to operate efficiently in a closed state, while achieving stable mixing of liquid and gas to generate uniform foam. During this process, the gas flow sensor 5 installed on the concealed pump 4 monitors the gas flow rate entering the pump body in real time and feeds the data back to the central control system to ensure accurate and controllable gas ratio. The mixed foam The liquid is discharged by the concealed pump 4 and transported to the mixing shell 9 through the connecting pipe 7. During this stage, the liquid flow sensor 8 installed on the connecting pipe 7 monitors the flow rate of the foam liquid in real time to further ensure the stability and consistency of the mixing process. If water needs to be added as a component in the foaming process, the water inlet 10 draws water from the storage device and transports it to the connecting pipe 7 through the delivery pipe 1001. During this process, the water flow sensor 11 continuously monitors the flow rate change of the water to ensure that it is added in the correct proportion and fully integrated with the initially formed foam liquid. Finally, the foam liquid after multi-stage mixing enters the mixing shell 9, where it undergoes final homogenization and structural optimization. At this time, the foaming effect sensor 12 detects key performance indicators such as foam density, bubble size, and uniformity of the mixture and feeds the data back to the CPU module to form a closed-loop control. Based on the data fed back by each sensor, the CPU and drive circuit module 3 can dynamically adjust key parameters such as the speed of the concealed pump 4, the ratio of gas to liquid, and the water inlet, thereby realizing intelligent control of the foaming quality and ensuring that the output foam meets the set standards.
