Description
Procédé de mesure du niveau d'un liquide submergé
La présente invention a pour objet un procédé de mesure du niveau d'un liquide submergé où l'on emploie un flotteur dont le poids spécifique est compris entre le poids spécifique du liquide submergé et celui du liquide flottant sur le liquide submergé, par exemple pour indiquer le niveau supérieur du liquide submergé, ou commander le débit de vannes d'admission ou d'écoulement.
La figure unique du dessin annexé représente, à titre d'exemple et en coupe schématique, une forme d'exécution d'un indicateur de niveau utilisé dans le procédé faisant l'objet de l'invention.
L'indicateur de niveau est placé dans un réservoir i, contenant un liquide 2 de faible densité, par exemple de la benzine, flottant sur un liquide plus dense 3, par exemple de l'eau. Le flotteur 4 ayant un poids spécifique intermédiaire se maintient entre les liquides 2 et 3, indiquant par la jauge 5 le niveau supérieur du liquide 3.
La jauge 5 fixée au flotteur 4 permet de juger de la quantité de liquide 3 qui atteint le niveau 6 dans le réservoir 1.
Dans une variante, on peut concevoir une indication de niveau portée par un cadran ou tout autre genre d'indicateur. La jauge 5 est alors par exemple munie de dents dans le but de commander un pignon supportant une aiguille de cadran. Par ailleurs, on peut combiner un indicateur de niveau tel que décrit avec la commande d'une vanne électromagnétique, cette commande étant constituée par un contact électrique lié à la jauge 5, par exemple.
REVENDICATION
Procédé de mesure du niveau d'un liquide submergé, caractérisé par le fait qu'on utilise un flotteur dont le poids spécifique est compris entre le poids spécifique du liquide submergé et celui du liquide flottant sur le liquide submergé.
SOUS-REVENDICATIONS
1. Procédé selon la revendication, caractérisé par le fait que le flotteur est relié à une tige verticale actionnant un système mécanique.
2. Procédé selon la revendication, caractérisé par le fait que le flotteur actionne une vanne électromagnétique.

Method for measuring the level of a submerged liquid
The present invention relates to a method for measuring the level of a submerged liquid where one employs a float whose specific weight is between the specific weight of the submerged liquid and that of the liquid floating on the submerged liquid, for example to indicate the upper level of the submerged liquid, or control the flow of inlet or flow valves.
The single figure of the appended drawing represents, by way of example and in schematic section, an embodiment of a level indicator used in the method forming the subject of the invention.
The level indicator is placed in a reservoir i, containing a liquid 2 of low density, for example benzine, floating on a more dense liquid 3, for example water. The float 4 having an intermediate specific weight remains between liquids 2 and 3, indicating by gauge 5 the upper level of liquid 3.
The gauge 5 attached to the float 4 makes it possible to judge the quantity of liquid 3 which reaches level 6 in the tank 1.
In a variant, it is possible to design a level indication carried by a dial or any other type of indicator. The gauge 5 is then for example provided with teeth for the purpose of controlling a pinion supporting a dial needle. Furthermore, it is possible to combine a level indicator as described with the control of an electromagnetic valve, this control being constituted by an electrical contact linked to the gauge 5, for example.
CLAIM
Method for measuring the level of a submerged liquid, characterized in that a float is used whose specific weight is between the specific weight of the submerged liquid and that of the liquid floating on the submerged liquid.
SUB-CLAIMS
1. Method according to claim, characterized in that the float is connected to a vertical rod actuating a mechanical system.
2. Method according to claim, characterized in that the float actuates an electromagnetic valve.
** ATTENTION ** end of DESC field can contain start of CLMS **.
