[0002] A water controller is a device that precisely controls the passage, flow and time of water to achieve the purpose of water conservation. It is mainly composed of three parts: an electronic control module, an IC card and a base meter. The electronic control module is the core of the water controller, responsible for the control of sampling, billing, display and other units, and can also take corresponding measures according to the operating status, and save important data for use and analysis. Users use water on demand, scientifically billed, and effectively save water resources. The working principle of a water controller is usually to convert cash into electronic currency through a server and store it in an IC card electronic wallet. When consumers need water, they only need to put the IC card on the water control machine. After the water control machine reads the information in the card, it opens the solenoid valve (or electric valve) to release water, and at the same time deducts the consumption amount from the card according to the set rate, thus completing the entire transaction process. The water controller has multiple functions, such as; scientific billing, effective conservation of water resources, more water use requires more payment, which can improve the turnover rate of shower use; accurate billing to ensure the interests of users; IC smart card swiping to control water, convenient and reliable; generally has daily limit, monthly limit, daily limit, monthly limit and other functions; based on offline network design, it can avoid network failures caused by large number of water control and wide network points affecting water use; high rate calculation accuracy, which can effectively protect the rights and interests of users.

[0033] The present application is further described in detail below through drawings and examples.

[0034] Reference Figures 1 to 10 The embodiment of the present application provides an integrated water controller for scanning and consuming based on the Internet of Things, including a water controller body 1, a water inlet pipe 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the water controller body 1, a water outlet pipe 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the water controller body 1, a connecting plate 5 is fixedly installed on one side of the water controller body 1, a protective component 6 is arranged on one side of the water controller body 1, and the protective component 6 includes a protective shell 61 and a fixing plate 62, the protective shell 61 is arranged on one side of the water controller body 1, the fixing plate 62 is fixedly installed on one side of the protective shell 61, the bottom of the fixing plate 62 is slidably connected to a sliding rod 63, and the fixing plate A spring 64 is provided at the bottom of a 62, a bottom end of a slide bar 63 is fixedly connected to a bottom plate 65, the bottom end of a spring 64 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate 65, a connecting rod 66 is hinged at the bottom of the bottom plate 65, a movable plate 67 is hinged at one side of the connecting rod 66, a clamping rod 68 is fixedly installed at one side of the movable plate 67, the clamping rod 68 is clamped with the connecting plate 5, a slide bar 2 69 is fixedly installed at one side of the protective shell 61, the movable plate 67 and the slide bar 2 69 are slidably connected, and the protective component 6 also includes a pull block 610, which is fixedly connected to the top of the slide bar 63.

[0035] In this embodiment, when the pull block 610 is pulled, the slide bar 1 63 will be used to drive the bottom plate 65 to move accordingly, and the bottom plate 65 will further drive the moving plate 1 67 to start sliding on the side wall of the slide bar 2 69 through the connecting rod 66. Then, the connecting plate 5 and the protective shell 61 are clamped to connect them to each other. Then, once the pull block 610 is released, the spring 1 64 will play its elastic role and reset the bottom plate 65. In this way, the bottom plate 65 will drive the moving plate 1 67 to move again through the connecting rod 66, so that the clamping rod 68 and the connecting plate 5 can be tightly clamped together. This clamping method is not only simple and reliable, but also more convenient, and the protective shell 61 and the water controller body 1 can be easily installed together. In addition, when disassembly operation is required, it is also very convenient. Such a design can greatly facilitate the subsequent maintenance of the water controller body 1 and ensure that the equipment can maintain a good operating state.

[0036] Reference Figures 1 to 10 In one aspect of the present embodiment, a cleaning assembly 7 is fixedly installed on one side of the protective shell 61. The cleaning assembly 7 includes a second fixing plate 71 and a second spring 72. The second fixing plate 71 is fixedly installed on one side of the protective shell 61. The top of the second fixing plate 71 is fixedly connected to the second spring 72. The top of the second spring 72 is fixedly connected to a lifting plate 73.

[0037] In this embodiment, when the pull ring 75 is pulled, the scraper 74 will start to move. The scraper 74 will use the lifting plate 73 to squeeze the spring 2 72, so that the spring 2 72 will shrink. In this process, the lifting plate 73 will slide downward through the stabilizing rod 76, and as the lifting plate 73 slides, the scraper 74 can effectively clean the transparent plate 3. This cleaning method is very convenient to operate, and can quickly clean the stains on the transparent plate 3, ensuring the cleanliness of its surface, so that the normal use of the device will not be affected by the stains on the transparent plate.

[0038] Reference Figures 1 to 10In one aspect of the present embodiment, support assemblies 8 are fixedly installed on both sides of the protective shell 61, and a cup 9 is provided on one side of the support assembly 8. The support assembly 8 also includes a fixing frame 81 and a bolt 82. The fixing frame 81 is fixedly installed on both sides of the protective shell 61, and the bolt 82 is threadedly connected to both sides of the fixing frame 81. A movable plate 2 83 is slidably connected to one side of the fixing frame 81. A U-shaped frame 84 is fixedly installed on one side of the fixing frame 81. A threaded rod 85 is threadedly connected to one side of the U-shaped frame 84. One end of the threaded rod 85 is connected to the movable plate 2 83 through a bearing. The support assembly 8 also includes a knob 86, which is fixedly connected to one end of the threaded rod 85.

[0039] In this embodiment, when the knob 86 is turned, the threaded rod 85 starts to rotate, and as the threaded rod 85 rotates, the second movable plate 83 can slide on one side of the fixed frame 81. Through this sliding operation, the second movable plate 83 can effectively limit the cup 9. In this way, when the cup 9 is receiving water, it will be more stable and convenient, avoiding problems in the water receiving process caused by the shaking or position deviation of the cup, greatly improving the user experience.

[0040] Working principle: First, when the pull block 610 is pulled, the slide bar 1 63 will be used to drive the bottom plate 65 to move accordingly, and the bottom plate 65 will further drive the moving plate 1 67 to start sliding on the side wall of the slide bar 2 69 through the connecting rod 66. Then, the connecting plate 5 and the protective shell 61 are clamped to connect them to each other. Then, once the pull block 610 is released, the spring 1 64 will play its elastic role and reset the bottom plate 65. In this way, the bottom plate 65 will drive the moving plate 1 67 to move again through the connecting rod 66, so that the clamping rod 68 and the connecting plate 5 can be tightly clamped together. This clamping method is not only simple and reliable, but also more convenient. It can easily install the protective shell 61 and the water controller body 1 together, and it is also very convenient when disassembly is required. Such a design can greatly facilitate the subsequent maintenance of the water controller body 1 and ensure that the equipment can maintain a good operating state.

[0041] Then, when the pull ring 75 is pulled, the scraper 74 will start to move. The scraper 74 will use the lifting plate 73 to squeeze the spring 2 72, so that the spring 2 72 will shrink. In this process, the lifting plate 73 will slide downward through the stabilizing rod 76, and as the lifting plate 73 slides, the scraper 74 can effectively clean the transparent plate 3. This cleaning method is very convenient to operate, and can quickly clean the stains on the transparent plate 3, ensuring the cleanliness of its surface, so that the normal use of the device will not be affected by the stains on the transparent plate.

[0042] Afterwards, when the knob 86 is turned, the threaded rod 85 will start to rotate. As the threaded rod 85 rotates, the second movable plate 83 can slide on one side of the fixed frame 81. Through this sliding operation, the second movable plate 83 can effectively limit the cup 9. In this way, when the cup 9 is receiving water, it will be more stable and convenient, avoiding problems in the water receiving process caused by the shaking or position deviation of the cup, which greatly improves the user experience.
