The piston rod of the first electric cylinder 11 is fixedly connected to the sliding support block 9.

[0027] In this embodiment, the cup body is placed inside the cup body support frame 4, and then the second electric cylinder 13 is activated to drive the cup body to the designated position. At this time, the top of the cup body is flush with the bottom edge of the scraper 10. A certain amount of liquid to be tested is added into the cup body, and the nozzle at the bottom of the cup body is blocked by a stop block. The first electric cylinder 11 is activated to drive the scraper 10 to move back and forth on the top of the detection cup body 5 to realize the scraping operation.

[0028] A second support plate 12 is fixed to the top of the guide post 2, and a second electric cylinder 13 is vertically downwardly mounted on the second support plate 12. The piston rod of the second electric cylinder 13 is fixedly connected to the first support plate 3. In this embodiment, the second electric cylinder 13 can be used to adjust the height of the detection cup 5, thereby facilitating the removal of the detection cup 5 and cleaning operations.

[0029] An annular limiting groove 14 is provided inside the cup body support frame 4. A first annular locking block 15 is provided at the position opposite to the annular limiting groove 14 on the edge of the detection cup body. The first annular locking block 15 can be inserted into the annular limiting groove 14. A second annular locking block 16 is provided on the outside of the first annular locking block 15. A first connecting groove 17 is provided on the left side of the second annular locking block 16, and a second connecting groove 18 is provided on its right side. A first limiting block 19 is provided on the left side of the second annular locking block 16. The first limiting block 19 is fixed on the first limiting post 21.

[0031] In this embodiment, when the detection cup 5 is placed inside the cup support frame 4, the first annular locking block 15 can be inserted into the annular limiting groove 14, and at the same time, the first limiting block 19 is inserted into the first connecting groove 17 under the action of the first limiting spring 23, and the second limiting block 20 is inserted into the second connecting groove 18 under the action of the second limiting spring 24, thereby improving the installation stability of the detection cup 5.

[0032] An anti-slip pad 25 is provided on the testing support platform 1. In this embodiment, the anti-slip pad 25 can improve the placement stability of the external receiving cup.

[0033] In this embodiment, a distance sensor 27 is provided on the detection support platform 1 at a position opposite to the first support plate 3. It is used to detect the height of the detection cup 5 so that the second electric cylinder 13 can drive the detection cup 5 to move to the bottom of the scraper plate 10. A control panel 26 is provided on the side of the detection support platform 1. The control panel 26 is connected to the distance sensor 27, the first electric cylinder, and the second electric cylinder, and can control the electric cylinder to work. This is the prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0034] Working principle: The detection cup 5 is placed and locked into the cup support frame 4. Then, the second electric cylinder 13 is started to move the detection cup 5 to the bottom of the scraper 10. The outer receiving cup is placed on the anti-slip pad 25. The liquid to be tested is put into the detection cup 5. The first electric cylinder 11 is started to drive the scraper 10 to move back and forth on the top of the detection cup 5 to realize the scraping operation.

[0035] When scraping material, the operator only needs to apply a certain pressure to block the nozzle to prevent liquid from flowing out, without the need for two hands (i.e., scraping material while blocking the nozzle), which improves the convenience of scraping material.

[0036] After scraping the material, quickly remove the obstruction from the nozzle orifice and press the timer button on the control panel 26. The liquid will flow into the external receiving cup through the nozzle orifice. Observe the liquid. When the liquid is interrupted for the first time, press the timer button again. The control panel 26 will automatically record the outflow time. Repeat the above steps and calculate the result.

[0037] After the test is completed, the second electric cylinder 13 can be activated to move the test cup 5 downwards, making it easier to remove the test cup 5.

[0038] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and not to limit it; although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the specific implementation of this utility model or equivalent substitutions can be made to some technical features without departing from the spirit of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications and substitutions should be covered within the scope of the technical solution claimed by this utility model.
