Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of water meter processing, in particular to an electromagnetic water meter and a method for reducing the power consumption of the electromagnetic water meter. Background Art

[0002] With the growing demand for water resource management in modern industrial and civil facilities, water meters, as key equipment for monitoring and controlling water flow, have received widespread attention for their accuracy and reliability. Although traditional water meters, such as rotary-wing and helical-wing mechanical water meters, are widely used, they are susceptible to impurities, have low accuracy, and require frequent maintenance. In order to solve these problems, electromagnetic water meters have emerged. They use the principle of electromagnetic induction for non-contact measurement and have the advantages of high accuracy, no wear, and no influence from the physical properties of the fluid.

[0003] Electromagnetic water meters are playing an increasingly important role in various applications. Especially in unattended, outdoor environments or scenarios with limited energy supply, the reliability and durability of electromagnetic water meters have become key issues. Traditional electromagnetic water meters mostly rely on continuous power supply, which brings great limitations in water source monitoring, irrigation systems or water resource management in remote areas. Therefore, providing a stable and sustainable power supply for electromagnetic water meters has become an important technical requirement.

[0004] As a portable and rechargeable power source, mobile power provides a new power supply option for electromagnetic water meters. However, when using mobile power to power electromagnetic water meters, its high power consumption will seriously affect the working time of electromagnetic water meters, thereby causing inaccurate or interrupted measurement of water flow, which brings great inconvenience to practical applications. Therefore, we propose an electromagnetic water meter and a method for reducing its product power consumption to solve the above technical problems. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of this, the present invention lacks a needle, and its main purpose is to provide an electromagnetic water meter and a method for reducing its product power consumption, which serves to solve the above-mentioned problem.

[0006] To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: comprising the following steps:

[0007] Step 1: Make two pipe sections, and preset bubble exhaust mechanisms on the inner sides of the two pipe sections;

[0008] Step 2: Prepare a preliminary circulation channel, and set a timing sensor inside the preliminary circulation channel, and start timing when water flows through the channel;

[0009] Step 3: flowmeters are arranged on the inner side of the two pipe sections and near the bubble exhaust mechanism. During use, by receiving and comparing the measurement data of the two sets of flowmeters, when the fluctuation difference of the measurement data of the two sets of flowmeters is within the range of 0.13cm / s to 0.18cm / s, the preparation flow pipeline is started;

[0010] Step 4: Make a pipe body, reserve connection ports for pipe sections on both sides of the pipe body, and open a receiving groove on the pipe body, then weld the pipe sections to both sides of the pipe body, set a bubble exhaust mechanism on the inner side of the connection port, fix the prepared circulation pipeline inside the pipe body, and connect the prepared circulation pipeline to the metering module through a three-way solenoid valve;

[0011] Step 5: Mount the meter body, electrodes, coils and metering modules on the pipe body for water flow metering when the water flow fluctuates greatly.

[0012] As a preferred solution, in step one, the bubble exhaust mechanism includes an automatic exhaust valve.

[0013] As a preferred solution, in the step 2, the prepared flow conduit is designed to be semicircular.

[0014] As a preferred solution, in step three, after the water flows through one of the pipe sections, the flow rate is measured by the flow meter in the pipe section. Subsequently, this part of the water flows through the meter body, electrodes, coils and metering module and enters another pipe section. A second water flow rate measurement is performed inside the pipe section. When the fluctuation ranges of the two flow meters are within a reasonable range of difference, the water flow is introduced into the prepared circulation pipeline through the three-way solenoid valve, and the water flow is timed inside the prepared circulation pipeline.

[0015] As a preferred solution, the inner diameter of the prepared circulation channel is 1 cm, the outer diameter is 15 cm, and the wall thickness of the prepared circulation channel is 0.2 cm;

[0016] When the water flows into the preparatory circulation channel, the volume of the water flow inside the pipeline is measured by the preparatory metering module.

[0017] An electromagnetic water meter, comprising:

[0018] A meter body, the meter body being fixedly installed in the receiving groove of the tube body;

[0019] A pipe segment, wherein the pipe segments include two and are welded to the outside of the pipe body, wherein the welding position of one of the pipe segments is higher than the welding position of the other pipe segment when placed horizontally;

[0020] A metering module, the metering module includes a preparatory metering module, the preparatory metering module is used to measure the water flow time inside the preparatory pipeline;

[0021] The prepared circulation pipeline is used to reduce the power consumption of the electromagnetic water meter and is arranged at the bottom of the inner side of the pipe body.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has obvious advantages and beneficial effects. Specifically, it can be seen from the above technical solution that it mainly has the following advantages:

[0023] The device presets a bubble exhaust mechanism inside two pipe sections and sets a flow meter near the bubble exhaust mechanism. The bubble exhaust mechanism helps to remove bubbles in the pipe and ensure the stable flow of water. The flow meter is used to monitor the speed of the water flow so as to start the preparatory circulation pipe when the water flow is stable.

[0024] A timing sensor is set inside the preparation flow pipe, which starts timing when water flows through, which helps to accurately measure the passing time of water flow, thereby achieving accurate water flow measurement;

[0025] By receiving and comparing the measurement data of the two sets of flow meters, when the measurement data of the two sets of flow meters fluctuate within a specific range, it means that the water flow is stable and the preparation flow pipeline can be started;

[0026] The present invention arranges a flow meter on the inner side of the two pipe sections, and ensures that the preparatory circulation pipeline is started only when the water flow is stable by monitoring the water flow velocity, thereby avoiding energy loss caused by frequent starting and stopping. The preparatory circulation pipeline is arranged, and a timing sensor is installed inside the preparatory circulation pipeline. By accurately measuring the water flow time, accurate water flow measurement is achieved, low-power use of electromagnetic water meters is promoted, the working time of electromagnetic water meters is guaranteed, and the inaccurate measurement or interruption of water flow is reduced, which brings convenience to practical applications.

[0027] In order to more clearly illustrate the structural features and effects of the present invention, the present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0029] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and implementation examples. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0030] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" another element, it may be directly on the other element or there may be a central element. When an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or there may be a central element at the same time. The terms "vertical", "horizontal", "left", "right" and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only.

[0031] See also Figure 1 The embodiment of the present invention provides an electromagnetic water meter and a method for reducing the power consumption of the electromagnetic water meter, including the following steps:

[0032] Step 1: Make two pipe sections, and preset bubble exhaust mechanisms on the inner sides of the two pipe sections. This step is to make pipe sections with exhaust functions to remove bubbles in the water flow and ensure the purity of the water flow;

[0033] Step 2: Prepare a preparatory circulation pipeline, set a timing sensor inside the preparatory circulation pipeline, and start timing when water flows through the channel. Install a timing sensor in the preparatory circulation pipeline to start timing when water flows through, which helps to record the time when water flows through and provide data support for subsequent flow calculation;

[0034] Step 3: flowmeters are arranged inside the two pipe sections and near the bubble exhaust mechanism. During use, by receiving and comparing the measurement data of the two sets of flowmeters, when the fluctuation difference range of the measurement data of the two sets of flowmeters is 0.13cm / s to 0.18cm / s, the preparation flow pipeline is started, and flowmeters are arranged inside the two pipe sections and near the bubble exhaust mechanism. By comparing the measurement data of the two sets of flowmeters, when the fluctuation difference range is within a specific range, the preparation flow pipeline is started, thereby realizing the control of water flow;

[0035] Step 4: Make a pipe body, reserve pipe connection ports on both sides of the pipe body, and open a receiving groove on the pipe body, then weld the pipe segments to both sides of the pipe body, set a bubble exhaust mechanism on the inner side of the connection port, fix the prepared circulation pipeline inside the pipe body, and connect the prepared circulation pipeline with the metering module through a three-way solenoid valve, make a pipe body, reserve pipe connection ports on both sides of the pipe body, weld the two prepared pipe segments to both sides of the pipe body, and set a bubble exhaust mechanism on the inner side of the connection port, and at the same time, fix the prepared circulation pipeline inside the pipe body, and connect it with the metering module through a three-way solenoid valve;

[0036] Step 5: Install the meter body, electrodes, coils and metering modules on the pipe body. For water flow measurement when the water flow fluctuates greatly, install various components of the water meter on the pipe body, including the meter body, electrodes, coils and metering modules. The function of these components is to measure and meter the water flow to ensure accurate metering results.

[0037] In this embodiment, two pipe sections are made, and a bubble exhaust mechanism is preset inside. The function of the bubble exhaust mechanism is to exhaust bubbles in the pipe when water flows through the water meter to ensure measurement accuracy. An automatic air exhaust valve is selected and installed inside the pipe section.

[0038] A preparation circulation pipe is made and a timing sensor is arranged inside the preparation circulation pipe. The preparation circulation pipe is used to provide a temporary water flow channel when the water flow fluctuates greatly to ensure the normal operation of the water meter. The timing sensor is used to record the time when the water flows through the preparation circulation pipe so as to calculate the water flow rate later.

[0039] A flow meter is arranged inside the two pipe sections and near the bubble exhaust mechanism. The flow meter is used to measure the velocity of the water flow. By receiving and comparing the measurement data of the two sets of flow meters, it can be determined whether the water flow is stable. When the fluctuation difference of the measurement data of the two sets of flow meters is in the range of 0.13cm / s to 0.18cm / s, it means that the water flow fluctuation is very small. At this time, the preparation flow pipeline can be started to measure the water flow, thereby reducing the power consumption of the electromagnetic water meter and ensuring the measurement accuracy of the electromagnetic water meter.

[0040] When the water flow fluctuation is small, the workload of the electromagnetic water meter can be stopped by starting the reserve flow pipe, thereby reducing power consumption. At the same time, the measurement frequency of the electromagnetic water meter can be adjusted according to actual needs to avoid unnecessary measurements and calculations, further reducing power consumption.

[0041] It should be noted that the flow meter used in this device is a low-power flow meter.

[0042] See also Figure 1 In the step 1, the bubble exhaust mechanism includes an automatic exhaust valve. The automatic exhaust valve is a device that can automatically exhaust gas or bubbles in the pipeline. They are usually installed at the high point of the pipeline or the position where exhaust is required. When gas or bubbles accumulate in the pipeline, the automatic exhaust valve will open to exhaust the gas to maintain the continuity and purity of the fluid in the pipeline;

[0043] Moreover, when making two sections of pipe, the preset automatic exhaust valve can ensure that possible bubbles are automatically removed during the flow of water, thereby reducing the impact of bubbles on the accuracy of water flow measurement. This design can improve the stability and accuracy of the water meter system and ensure the reliability of water flow measurement.

[0044] See also Figure 1In step 2, the prepared circulation pipe is designed to be semicircular. In step 2, the prepared circulation pipe is designed to be semicircular. This design may be to optimize the circulation of water flow and ensure the stability and uniformity of water flow in the pipe. The semicircular design can reduce the resistance of water flow through the pipe, promote the smooth flow of water flow, and thus improve the circulation efficiency of water flow;

[0045] In addition, the semicircular design can also reduce the turbulence that may be generated in the water flow, making the water flow more stable, which is beneficial to the subsequent metering work. By setting a semicircular design inside the prepared circulation pipe, the flow characteristics of the water flow can be optimized and the performance and accuracy of the water meter system can be improved.

[0046] See also Figure 1 In step 3, after the water flows through one of the pipe sections, the flow velocity is measured by the flow meter in the pipe section, and then the water flows through the meter body, the electrode, the coil and the metering module and enters the other pipe section, and the water flow velocity is measured for the second time inside the pipe section. When the fluctuation ranges of the two flow meters are within a reasonable range of difference, the water flow is introduced into the prepared circulation pipeline through the three-way solenoid valve, and the water flow timing is performed inside the prepared circulation pipeline;

[0047] In this embodiment, first, when the water flows through one of the pipe sections, the flow meter in the pipe section will perform the first flow velocity measurement, then the water flows into the meter body, electrodes, coils and metering module to perform water flow measurement, then the water flows into another pipe section to lead the water flow out of the device, and the second water flow velocity measurement is performed in the pipe section, through the second flow meter, and the water flow velocity therein is measured;

[0048] Next, when the fluctuation between the measurement results of the two flow meters is within a reasonable range, it indicates that the water flow speed in the two pipe sections is relatively stable, and the preparatory circulation pipeline can be started. At this time, the water flow is introduced into the preparatory circulation pipeline through the three-way solenoid valve, and the timing is started inside the preparatory circulation pipeline to record the time when the water flows through, so as to calculate the volume of the water passing through on the computer;

[0049] Through this step, the water flow can be controlled and timed to ensure accurate measurement of the water flow, and the stability of the water flow can be determined based on the measurement results of the flow meter, thereby starting or stopping the flow of the prepared circulation pipeline.

[0050] See also Figure 1 The inner diameter of the prepared circulation channel is 1 cm, the outer diameter is 15 cm, and the wall thickness of the prepared circulation channel is 0.2 cm;

[0051] When the water flows into the prepared circulation channel, the volume of the water flow inside the pipeline is measured by the prepared metering module;

[0052] In this embodiment, when water flows into the preliminary circulation channel, the preliminary metering module will measure the volume of water flow inside the pipeline, which means that by monitoring and measuring the flow velocity and flow rate of the water flow in the pipeline, the total volume of water flowing through the pipeline can be calculated. Therefore, the preliminary metering module can be used to record and calculate the volume of water flowing through the preliminary circulation pipeline, thereby achieving accurate water flow metering.

This design may help stabilize the flow of water and ensure that water flows smoothly through the pipeline;

[0056] The metering module includes a preparatory metering module, which is used to measure the water flow time inside the preparatory pipeline. The preparatory metering module is used to measure the water flow time inside the preparatory circulation pipeline. This helps to accurately measure the time for the water flow to pass through the pipeline, thereby achieving accurate measurement of the water flow;

[0057] A preparation circulation pipe is provided at the bottom of the inner side of the pipe body to reduce the power consumption of the electromagnetic water meter. This design may help to optimize the circulation of water and reduce the energy consumption of the water meter system, thereby improving the efficiency and sustainability of the system.
