Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dissolved oxygen devices, specifically a device for measuring dissolved oxygen in water samples. Background Technology
[0002] In many fields such as water quality monitoring, aquaculture, environmental science research, and sewage treatment, dissolved oxygen meters play an irreplaceable role as key equipment for measuring dissolved oxygen content in water bodies. With the development of technology, although existing dissolved oxygen meters have made certain progress in measurement principles and functions, many problems that urgently need to be solved have still been exposed in actual use.
[0003] A search revealed that Chinese Patent Publication No. CN 222671689 U discloses a device for determining dissolved oxygen in water samples. The device includes a measuring cylinder with a first stopcock (a three-way stopcock) installed at its top. An outlet pipe and a colorimetric reagent inlet pipe are fixedly installed at the top of the measuring cylinder. The original reagent dispenser is improved to a three-way valve, and the first stopcock controls the flow of each pipe, thus obtaining the test results. This separates the colorimetric reagent inlet and the sample outlet, preventing the sample and colorimetric reagent from mixing and thus avoiding deviations. Furthermore, a flow guide is provided, with several guide vanes installed inside. When water flows through, it forms a vortex, allowing the water to better flush the inner wall, thereby cleaning the cylinder wall and preventing deviations.
[0004] The dissolved oxygen device in the aforementioned patent still has certain shortcomings. Because dissolved oxygen meters are easily affected by environmental factors during actual use, most of the existing dissolved oxygen meters are used outdoors when measuring the oxygen content in water. As a result, some impurities or oil stains in the water can easily adhere to the sensor membrane head of the dissolved oxygen meter. If these are not removed in a timely and effective manner, the oil stains or impurities will condense on the surface of the membrane head, making subsequent cleaning difficult and even damaging the normal use of the membrane head. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a device for measuring dissolved oxygen in water samples. It solves the problem that existing dissolved oxygen meters are mostly used outdoors, and the sensor membrane head of the dissolved oxygen meter is prone to adhering to impurities or oil from the water. If these impurities are not removed in a timely and effective manner, they will condense on the surface of the membrane head, making subsequent cleaning difficult and even damaging the membrane head for normal use.
[0006] This utility model provides the following technical solution: a device for measuring dissolved oxygen in a water sample, including a dissolved oxygen measuring instrument body, a measuring probe is provided on the side of the dissolved oxygen measuring instrument body, the dissolved oxygen measuring instrument body and the measuring probe are connected by a connecting line, a measuring membrane head is provided at the bottom of the measuring probe, and a membrane head cleaning component is provided on the outside of the measuring membrane head;

[0017] (1) This utility model provides a membrane head cleaning assembly on the outside of the measuring membrane head. The cleaning sleeve in the membrane head cleaning assembly is sleeved on the outside of the measuring membrane head.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-4 ,
[0025] Example 1: A device for measuring dissolved oxygen in a water sample includes a dissolved oxygen measuring instrument body 1, a measuring probe 2 is provided on the side of the dissolved oxygen measuring instrument body 1, the dissolved oxygen measuring instrument body 1 and the measuring probe 2 are connected by a connecting line 3, a measuring membrane head 4 is provided at the bottom of the measuring probe 2, and a membrane head cleaning component 5 is provided on the outside of the measuring membrane head 4.
[0026] The membrane head cleaning assembly 5 includes a connecting collar 501 fitted onto the bottom of the measuring probe 2. Two fixing slots 502 are symmetrically opened on both sides of the connecting collar 501. Fastening screw holes 503 are opened on the side of the fixing slots 502. Fastening bolts 504 are inserted into the fastening screw holes 503. A cleaning sleeve 505 is provided at the bottom of the connecting collar 501. The inner wall of the cleaning sleeve 505 is provided with a liquid inlet cavity 506. A plurality of cleaning spray holes 507 are evenly opened on the inner wall of the liquid inlet cavity 506. The cleaning sleeve 505 is fitted onto the measuring membrane head 4.
[0027] A top connecting ring 508 is fixed to the top of the cleaning sleeve 505. Two fixing plates 509 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the top of the top of the top connecting ring 508. The fixing plates 509 are inserted into the fixing slots 502. A liquid inlet connector 510 is provided on the side of the cleaning sleeve 505. A liquid storage tube 511 is fixed to the side of the dissolved oxygen measuring instrument body 1. A push rod 512 is inserted into the liquid storage tube 511. A piston head 513 is provided in the liquid storage tube 511. The bottom end of the push rod 512 is fixedly connected to the piston head 513. The bottom end of the liquid storage tube 511 is connected to an infusion hose 514. A valve 515 is provided on the infusion hose 514.
[0028] Example 2: The difference between this example and Example 1 is that the middle part of the cleaning sleeve 505 is hollow.
[0029] This allows the cleaning sleeve 505 to be better fitted onto the outside of the measuring membrane head 4.
[0030] Example 3: The difference between this example and Example 1 is that the fixing plate 509 is in the shape of an arc that matches the fixing slot 502.
[0031] This makes the connection between the fixed insert plate 509 and the connecting collar 501 more convenient.
[0032] Example 4: The difference between this example and Example 1 is that a connecting block is provided at the top of the push rod 512.
[0033] This makes it more convenient for users to press the push rod 512.
[0034] In this embodiment, since most of the existing dissolved oxygen meters are used outdoors when measuring the oxygen content in water, the sensor membrane head of the dissolved oxygen meter is prone to the adhesion of some impurities or oil from the water. If these are not removed in a timely and effective manner, the oil or impurities will condense on the surface of the membrane head, making subsequent cleaning difficult and even damaging the normal use of the membrane head.
[0035] In summary, during implementation, after the user measures the dissolved oxygen content in the water sample using the measuring membrane head 4 on the measuring probe 2, some impurities or oil stains will remain on the surface of the measuring membrane head 4. At this time, the user can place the cleaning sleeve 505 from the membrane head cleaning assembly 5 on the outside of the measuring membrane head 4, pass the fixing plate 509 through the fixing slot 502, and insert the fastening bolt 504 into the fastening screw hole 503 to abut against the side wall of the fixing plate 509, so that the cleaning sleeve 505 is stably placed on the outside of the measuring membrane head 4.
[0036] Next, the user connects to the inlet connector 510 via the infusion hose 514 connected to the bottom of the storage tube 511. A certain amount of cleaning fluid is pre-stored in the storage tube 511. By pushing the push rod 512, the user causes the push rod 512 to push out the cleaning fluid stored in the storage tube 511 through the piston head 513. The cleaning fluid is then squeezed through the infusion hose 514 into the inlet cavity 506 on the cleaning sleeve 505. The side wall of the inlet cavity 506 is evenly provided with several cleaning nozzles 507. The squeezed cleaning fluid is sprayed onto the surface of the measuring membrane head 4 through the cleaning nozzles 507, thereby rinsing and cleaning the impurities or oil stains on the surface of the measuring membrane head 4.
[0037] This method is well-suited for cleaning water samples after outdoor testing, allowing for the rapid and effective removal of impurities or oil from the surface of the measuring membrane head 4. It prevents impurities and oil from adhering to the surface of the measuring membrane head 4 and condensing into something difficult to remove, making the cleaning of the measuring membrane head 4 more timely. This facilitates the subsequent use of the measuring membrane head 4 for water sample testing and provides good protection for the measuring membrane head 4.
