Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of electrode protection technology, and more particularly to a pH electrode holder. Background Technology

[0002] During the production process, the pH sensor is installed inside the tank. When the equipment needs cleaning or is idle for an extended period, immersing the pH electrode in a protective solution (which is required for long-term use when the pH electrode is not in use) according to the original procedure may increase labor costs and pose a risk of damage to the pH electrode.

[0003] The current standard operating procedure is as follows:

[0004] 1. Remove the pH electrode from the container;

[0005] 2. Remove the pH protective cover;

[0006] 3. Remove the sheath from the pH electrode cable;

[0007] 4. Disconnect the PH cable;

[0008] 5. After covering the pH electrode with the protective solution, store it together with the pH protective sleeve and the pH electrode cable sheath in the designated area.

[0009] However, the following problems exist in this operation:

[0010] 1. The operation takes a long time, with each set taking about 5 minutes to disassemble on average.

[0011] 2. The pH electrode protective sleeve is made of 316L metal, while the pH electrode itself is made of glass. During disassembly, the electrode is easily damaged due to bumps and knocks.

[0012] 3. Frequent plugging and unplugging of the cable connecting the pH electrode and the transmitter can easily lead to problems such as loosening, damage, and poor contact, affecting the stability and accuracy of signal transmission.

[0013] A separate storage area needs to be designed on-site to properly store the pH electrodes and their accessories, which increases the complexity of space management. Summary of the Invention

[0014] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings in the current electrode protection rack technology, the present invention provides a pH electrode storage protection rack, which can significantly reduce operational risks and avoid problems such as glass electrode breakage or cable damage that may occur during the disassembly of pH electrode protective sleeves and cable sheaths; effectively save manpower input, reduce tedious disassembly and installation operations, and shorten the average disassembly time of each set of components to less than 1 minute; significantly reduce enterprise costs, reduce maintenance costs caused by electrode damage and cable failures, and save on the design and maintenance costs of storage areas, thereby helping enterprises reduce labor costs and consumable costs.

[0015] To achieve the above objectives, the embodiments of the present invention adopt the following technical solutions:

[0016] A pH electrode holder is provided for holding a pH electrode, which includes a pH sensor, a pH electrode protective sleeve, and a cable sheath. The pH electrode holder is a frame structure, including an interface and a frame body. The lower end of the interface is connected to the frame body, and the upper end of the interface has a port for connecting to the interface of the pH electrode protective sleeve. The port is tilted, and the interface of the pH electrode protective sleeve is also tilted. The tilt angle of the port is the same as the tilt angle of the interface of the pH electrode protective sleeve.

[0017] According to one aspect of the invention, the outer wall of the frame is provided with a connecting device, which is connected to an external structure via a fastener.

[0018] According to one aspect of the invention, the connecting device is configured as a hook, and the hook has a plurality of holes.

[0019] According to one aspect of the invention, the fastener includes a fixing plate and a latch, the latch being connected to the fixing plate.

[0020] According to one aspect of the invention, the number and position of the hooks correspond to the holes on the lugs.

[0021] According to one aspect of the invention, the fixing plate is connected to an external structure.

[0022] According to one aspect of the invention, the frame is configured as a semi-sealed alloy, and the frame is welded to the lower end of the interface.

[0023] According to one aspect of the invention, a protective liquid is provided inside the frame, the protective liquid being configured to immerse the pH sensor.

[0024] According to one aspect of the invention, the pH electrode is configured to remain in a nearly vertical position when inserted into the pH electrode holder.

[0025] According to one aspect of the present invention, the upper end of the interface is provided with a rubber structure at the connection point with the pH electrode protective sleeve.

[0026] Advantages of this invention: The pH electrode holder is designed as a frame structure, including an interface and a frame body. The lower end of the interface is connected to the frame body, and the upper end of the interface is angled to match the interface of the pH electrode protective sleeve. This significantly reduces operational risks and avoids problems such as glass electrode breakage or cable damage during the disassembly of the pH electrode protective sleeve and cable sheath. It effectively saves manpower, reduces tedious disassembly and installation operations, and shortens the average disassembly time for each component to less than one minute. It significantly reduces enterprise costs, decreasing repair expenses due to electrode damage and cable failures, while also saving on the design and maintenance costs of the storage area, thereby helping enterprises reduce labor and material costs.

[0034] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0035] Example 1:

[0036] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a pH electrode holder is used to hold a pH electrode. The pH electrode includes a pH electrode protective sleeve 2 and a cable sheath 3 connected to each other, and a pH sensor 1 connected to the front end of the pH electrode protective sleeve 2.

[0037] The pH electrode holder is a frame structure, including an interface 4, a frame body 5, and a connecting device. The interface 4 and the frame body 5 form a container. The lower end of the interface 4 is welded to the frame body 5. The upper end of the interface 4 has a port for connecting to the interface of the pH electrode protective sleeve 2. The port is tilted, and the tilt angle of the port is the same as that of the interface of the pH electrode protective sleeve 2. A rubber pad is provided at the connection between the upper end of the interface 4 and the pH electrode protective sleeve 2 to ensure that the pH sensor 1 remains nearly vertical when inserted into the pH electrode holder. This design not only reduces the risk of personnel injury and equipment damage caused by accidental collisions during on-site personnel movement, but also further improves the safety and convenience of operation.

[0038] The frame 5 is a semi-sealed alloy structure with a protective fluid inside. The fluid volume is designed to completely immerse the pH sensor 1 when the pH electrode is inserted into the pH electrode holder. A connecting device is welded to the outer wall of the frame 5. This device uses a hook-type design and is connected to the external structure via fasteners. The connecting device consists of hooks 6 with multiple holes. The fasteners include a fixing plate 7 and multiple latches 8. The latches 8 are connected to the fixing plate 7, and their number and position correspond to the holes on the hooks 6. The fixing plate 7 is welded to the external structure. The connecting device and fasteners are flexibly fixed via the hooks 7 and latches 8. This design allows the pH electrode holder to be easily removed from the field for cleaning or adding pH protective fluid. This innovative design not only simplifies the maintenance process but also meets on-site cleanliness requirements, avoiding the complexity of repeated disassembly, installation, and storage in traditional operations.

[0039] In this embodiment, the pH electrode storage rack can be installed nearby next to each pH electrode. When the pH electrode needs to be disassembled, it only needs to be removed from the tank interface and placed directly into the pH electrode storage rack pre-installed near the equipment. The pH electrode storage rack is pre-filled with sufficient protective liquid, which can provide continuous protection and storage effect for the pH electrode.

[0040] Advantages of this invention: The pH electrode holder is designed as a frame structure, including an interface and a frame body. The lower end of the interface is connected to the frame body, and the upper end of the interface is angled to match the interface of the pH electrode protective sleeve. This significantly reduces operational risks and avoids problems such as glass electrode breakage or cable damage during the disassembly of the pH electrode protective sleeve and cable sheath. It effectively saves manpower, reduces tedious disassembly and installation operations, and shortens the average disassembly time for each component to less than one minute. It significantly reduces enterprise costs, decreasing repair expenses due to electrode damage and cable failures, while also saving on the design and maintenance costs of the storage area, thereby helping enterprises reduce labor and material costs.

[0043] The pH electrode holder is a frame structure, including an interface 4, a frame body 5, and a connecting device. The interface 4 and the frame body 5 form a container. The lower end of the interface 4 is welded to the frame body 5. The upper end of the interface 4 has a port for connecting to the interface of the pH electrode protective sleeve 2. The port is tilted, and the tilt angle of the port is the same as that of the interface of the pH electrode protective sleeve 2. A rubber pad is provided at the connection between the upper end of the interface 4 and the pH electrode protective sleeve 2 to ensure that the pH sensor 1 remains nearly vertical when inserted into the pH electrode holder. This design not only reduces the risk of personnel injury and equipment damage caused by accidental collisions during on-site personnel movement, but also further improves the safety and convenience of operation.

[0044] The frame 5 is a semi-sealed alloy structure, with a protective fluid inside. The capacity of the protective fluid is designed to completely immerse the pH sensor 1 when the pH electrode is inserted into the pH electrode holder. A connecting device is welded to the outer wall of the frame 5. The connecting device uses a hook-type design and is connected to the external structure via a fastener. The connecting device is a hook 6 with multiple holes. In this embodiment, the fastener includes a fixing plate 7 and multiple detachable bolts. The detachable bolts are fixed to the fixing plate 7 through threaded holes. The number and position of the detachable bolts correspond to the holes on the hook 6. The fixing plate 7 is welded to the external structure. The connecting device and fastener are flexibly fixed via the hook 7 and detachable bolts. This design allows the pH electrode holder to be easily removed from the field for cleaning or adding pH protective fluid. This innovative design not only simplifies the maintenance process but also meets the cleanliness requirements of the field, avoiding the complexity caused by repeated disassembly, installation, and storage in traditional operations.

[0045] In this embodiment, the pH electrode storage rack can be installed nearby next to each pH electrode. When the pH electrode needs to be disassembled, it only needs to be removed from the tank interface and placed directly into the pH electrode storage rack pre-installed near the equipment. The pH electrode storage rack is pre-filled with sufficient protective liquid, which can provide continuous protection and storage effect for the pH electrode.
