Detailed Implementation

[0033] The overall concept of this utility model is as follows:

[0034] 1. By adjusting the variable volume adjustment rod 2, the target volume can be accurately quantified, and the repeatability of multiple measurements is good. The thread of the variable volume adjustment rod 2 is not fully closed; the unclosed side is a flat scale 203, which facilitates clear setting of the scale and accurate marking of the volume.

[0035] 2. The scale 203 is installed on the variable volume adjustment rod 2. The target volume can be adjusted by adjusting the screw-in and screw-out length of the variable volume adjustment rod 2. The scale 203 has a large range and a small graduation value, which can meet the measurement needs of different liquid volumes and has high accuracy.

[0036] 3. The sensor is triggered by the float 4 to indicate the switch action. Two through holes are set at 90° positions on the axial tangent of the rotating rod 9. The rotating shaft is welded to the switch. The liquid filling and drainage are realized by rotating the switch.

[0037] 4. Depending on the experimental requirements for the amount of canned goods, two or more of these devices can be connected in series to improve work efficiency.

[0038] 5. The pressure of a typical liquid pipeline is sufficient to meet the measurement requirements, and no external power is needed.

[0039] The specific solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0040] A laboratory liquid quantitative measuring and filling device, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a metering component and a switching component that are interconnected; wherein, the metering component includes:

[0041] A hollow cylindrical tank 1 is provided, with its bottom connected to the top of a metering component. A variable volume adjustment rod 2 is installed inside the tank 1 to adjust the volume of the hollow cavity.

[0042] The variable capacity adjustment rod 2 is provided with an external thread 202, and the top opening of the tank body 1 is provided with an internal thread. The variable capacity adjustment rod 2 is threadedly connected to the tank body 1. After the height is set by rotating, the locking nut 3 is unscrewed from the top of the variable capacity adjustment rod 2 and abuts against the top of the tank body 1, thereby fixing the variable capacity adjustment rod 2. The locking nut 3 is coaxially arranged with the tank body 1.

[0043] The variable volume adjusting rod 2 also includes a piston 204 disposed at the bottom of the variable volume adjusting rod 2. The bottom of the piston 204, the bottom of the tank body 1, and the inner wall together form a hollow cavity. In use, raising or lowering the variable volume adjusting rod 2 will raise or lower the piston 204, thereby increasing or decreasing the volume of the hollow cavity.

[0044] A breather hole 201 is vertically inserted through the center axis of the variable displacement adjusting rod 2, which is used to discharge the gas in the hollow cavity when the piston moves downward, so as to balance the pressure in the hollow cavity.

[0045] The external thread 202 of the variable capacity adjustment rod 2 is an unclosed thread, and a scale 203 is vertically provided along the axis of the variable capacity adjustment rod 2 to mark the high and low positions of the variable capacity adjustment rod 2.

[0046] A liquid level monitoring component is also provided in the hollow cavity between the bottom of the variable volume regulating rod 2 and the bottom of the tank 1 to monitor the liquid level position in the hollow cavity.

[0047] Liquid level monitoring components include:

[0048] A float 4 is installed inside the hollow cavity, an empty-load sensor 502 is installed at the bottom of the tank body 1, and a full-load sensor 501 is installed at the bottom of the variable-capacity adjusting rod 2. The full-load sensor 501 and the empty-load sensor 502 are electrically connected to the full-load indicator light 601 and the empty-load indicator light 602, respectively. In use, as the liquid level rises or falls, the float 4 touches the full-load sensor 501 or the empty-load sensor 502, triggering the full-load indicator light 601 or the empty-load indicator light 602 to light up.

[0049] The switch component includes a housing 8, the top of which is bolted to the bottom of the tank body 1. A first sealing ring 7 is provided at the connection to prevent leakage.

[0050] Both the top of the outer shell 8 and the bottom of the tank 1 have openings of the same size.

[0051] The shell 8 has an inverted Y-shaped tee pipe installed vertically inside. The opening at the top of the tee pipe is the same size as the opening at the top of the shell 8 and the bottom of the tank 1. The inside of the tee pipe is connected to the hollow cavity of the tank 1.

[0052] The two channels of the three-way pipe are: inlet guide pipe 11 and outlet guide pipe 12. The outlet guide pipe 12 is provided with an outlet 1201 at the bottom for discharging substances from the hollow cavity.

[0053] The inlet guide pipe 11 and the outlet guide pipe 12 are respectively connected to the horizontally arranged injection pipe 10. One end of the inlet guide pipe 11 is connected to the injection pipe 10, and the other end is connected to the outlet guide pipe 12. The upper end of the outlet guide pipe 12 is the top opening of a three-way pipe, and the lower end is vertically inserted through the middle of the injection pipe 10. That is, the injection pipe 10 has through holes at the upper and lower positions, which are respectively connected to the upper and lower parts of the outlet guide pipe 12.

[0054] One end of the injection tube 10 has an injection port 1001, and the other end is fixed on the inner wall of the outer casing 8.

[0055] A rotating rod 9 is fitted inside the injection tube 10. One end of the rotating rod 9 extends out of the outer shell 8 and is fixedly fitted with a handle 901.

[0056] The rotating rod 9 has a hollow structure, with the section connecting it to the injection tube 10 being hollow, while the remaining sections are solid cylindrical tubes. The rotating rod 9 has an opening on its left side, which is connected to the inside of the injection tube 10.

[0057] The rotating rod 9 has a first opening 902 on its side wall corresponding to the liquid inlet guide pipe 11. When the first opening 902 of the rotating rod is rotated to the opening of the liquid inlet guide pipe 11, the liquid inlet guide pipe 11 is connected to the liquid injection pipe 10; otherwise, they are not connected.

[0058] The rotating rod 9 has a second opening 903 at the top and bottom of the corresponding position of the drain guide pipe 12. When the second opening 903 of the rotating rod is rotated to the vertical position, the upper and lower parts of the drain guide pipe 12 are connected to discharge liquid.

[0059] By setting the positions of the first opening 902 and the second opening 903 of the rotating rod, the connection state between the liquid inlet guide pipe 11 and the liquid injection pipe 10 and the connection state between the liquid outlet guide pipe 12 can only be selected as one of the two, and cannot be connected at the same time.

[0060] Example:

[0061] This device consists of two parts: the upper part accurately measures the liquid, and the lower part dispenses it.

[0062] The main components of the upper part are tank body 1, float 4, and variable volume adjustment rod 2. The main components of the lower part are spherical shell 8, injection pipe 10, inlet guide pipe 11, outlet guide pipe 12, and rotating rod 9.

[0063] Two openings 902 and 903, which are 90° apart from the axial tangent, are distributed on the rotating rod 9. Each opening passes through the rotating rod 9. The positions of the openings correspond to the positions of the liquid inlet guide pipe 10 and the liquid outlet guide pipe 12, respectively. The rotating rod 9 is nested inside the liquid injection pipe 10. Both ends of the liquid inlet guide pipe 10 and the liquid outlet guide pipe 12 are equipped with sealing rings.

[0064] The inner and outer diameters of the connection between the upper and lower halves are equal, and they are connected by bolts and sealed with a sealing ring 7.

[0065] The tank 1 is cylindrical, with an embedded piston 204. A variable-volume adjusting rod 2 is welded to the upper end of the piston 204. A circular vent 201 runs longitudinally through the center of the adjusting rod 2 to connect to the atmosphere and expel gas from the tank 1 during liquid measurement. The rod has an open-loop thread 202, with a 5mm wide flat graduated scale 203 on the open-loop side. The scale 203 is marked with graduations, a measuring range of (0-500) mL, and a minimum division of 5 mL. The graduations start at 0 and increase from top to bottom. To measure a specified volume of liquid, adjust the variable-volume adjusting rod 2 to the desired volume indication scale and tighten the locking nut 3. The locking nut is threaded with the variable-volume adjusting rod and can be screwed onto it. In practice, first adjust the variable-volume adjusting rod to the desired scale, then screw the locking nut downwards until it is tightly fitted against the top of the tank. At this point, the locking nut and the basic thread of the variable capacity adjustment rod form an effect similar to "double nut superposition and screwing", which can effectively enhance the fixed stability of the variable capacity adjustment rod after positioning.

[0066] Because the switch handle 901 and the rotating rod 9 are welded together, rotating the switch counterclockwise by 90° connects the inlet guide tube 11 with the left opening 902 on the rotating rod 9, and the outlet guide tube 12 is misaligned with the right opening 903 on the rotating rod 9, closing the connection. Liquid enters the tank 1 from the injection port through the inlet guide tube. When the set volume is reached, the float 4 triggers the full-load sensor 501, and the full-load indicator light 601 illuminates. At this time, rotating the switch handle clockwise by 90° causes the left and right openings on the rotating rod 9 to rotate synchronously, blocking the inlet guide tube 11. The outlet guide tube 12 connects to the right opening 903 on the rotating rod, and the measured liquid flows into the receiving container. When all the liquid is discharged, the bottom of the float 4 touches the empty-load sensor 502, and the empty-load indicator light 602 illuminates. This completes one measurement and filling process. The container is then placed directly below the outlet 1201. Rotating the switch handle counterclockwise by 90° initiates the next measurement and filling step, repeating this cycle to achieve batch processing. Depending on the sample size, two or more of these devices can be connected in series, allowing for single-person operation and improved work efficiency.

[0067] This utility model provides a concept and method for a laboratory liquid quantitative measuring and filling device. Many methods and approaches exist for implementing this technical solution; the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. All components not explicitly stated in this embodiment can be implemented using existing technology.
