[0019] Beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0020] 1. The present invention uses a bidirectional electric push rod to drive the toothed plate to move and engage with the gear, thereby driving the winding seat to wind up the pull rope. In the initial state, the vertical plate is vertical, and the baffle of the vertical pipe blocks the opening of the horizontal pipe at the lower end of the connecting pipe.

[0021] 2. The bottom box of the present invention is fixed to the bottom of the Cat.1 water meter body by the first clamp, and is connected to the pull rope by the second clamp, so that the pull rope can be used to activate the switching end at the farthest end of the connecting pipe to switch the water flow direction. In this structure, the disassembly and assembly of the bottom box and the installation of the detection component are convenient. At the same time, the traction force of the pull rope can be used to connect with the monitoring pipe at a farther distance, and the water flow direction can be switched simultaneously from both ends of the connecting pipe. This has little effect on the installation distance of the monitoring pipe and the length of the connecting pipe, and can meet the installation requirements of connecting pipes of different lengths, and can switch the object for detecting leakage.

[0022] 3. The Cat.1 water meter body of the present invention is threadedly connected to the connecting pipe and the monitoring pipe through a connecting end, a connecting head and an installation end, and adopts an existing connection method, which is convenient for installation, disassembly and replacement. The first flow sensor and the second flow sensor inside the Cat.1 water meter body and the monitoring pipe are flow sensors of the same type, and the water flow is detected at different points, so it is more convenient to determine the location of the leak.

[0023] 4. Compared with the prior art, the present invention additionally sets monitoring tubes at both ends of the Cat.1 water meter, collects three sets of water flow data through the cooperation of the second flow sensor in the monitoring tube and the first flow sensor inside the Cat.1 water meter, and compares them. The leakage position is simply determined based on the comparison data results, and the leakage position is accurately found through the detection component, so that timely maintenance can be carried out to reduce the waste of water resources.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easy to understand, the present invention is further explained below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.

[0033] See also Figures 1 to 7 , the present invention provides a technical solution:

[0036] (2) Flow detection: The second flow sensor in the monitoring tube at the input end monitors the input flow, the first flow sensor in the Cat.1 water meter body monitors the water flow passing through, and the second flow sensor in the monitoring tube at the output end monitors the output flow;

[0037] (3) Data collection: The three sets of flow data are transmitted to the terminal through the data transmission module and compared. According to the different locations of the data, the detection component performs leak detection;

[0038] (4) Problem summary: Switch the middle tube connecting the monitoring tube and the Cat.1 water meter body, and compare the flow values ​​of the two again. If there is still a difference, the Cat.1 water meter body is leaking. The staff will promptly inspect and repair it. When the flow is the same after switching the middle tube, the middle connecting tube is leaking. Notify the residents to inspect and replace it by themselves.

[0039] The Cat.1 water meter body 1 in the present application is a Cat.1 smart water meter of the prior art. A water flow sensor is installed inside the Cat.1 water meter to detect the water flow velocity in the pipe. When the water flows through the water meter, the sensor converts the water flow velocity into an electrical signal. The microprocessor inside the water meter receives the electrical signal output by the sensor, processes the signal according to a preset algorithm, and calculates the water consumption.

The Cat.1 communication protocol is a communication technology based on cellular networks, with high data transmission rate and low latency. The remote server receives the water consumption data transmitted by the water meter and conducts real-time monitoring and summary analysis. In this way, the water company can understand the water consumption situation in various areas at any time, detect abnormalities in time and take corresponding measures. When the water meter detects abnormal conditions, such as excessive water use, abnormal water pressure, etc., it will send alarm information to the water company and users through the Cat.1 communication module;

A fixed shaft seat 25 is fixed to the protruding end of the tooth plate 23, and the bottom of the fixed shaft seat 25 is fixed on the pull rope 26. The first connecting rod 22 is rotatably installed on both sides of the fixed shaft seat 25. The top of the first connecting rod 22 is rotatably connected to the plug rod 312 close to the side of the Cat.1 water meter body 1. A gear 28 is rotatably installed on the surface of the winding seat 27 corresponding to the tooth plate 23, and the gear 28 is fixedly connected to the winding shaft of the winding seat 27.

The three sets of flow data are transmitted to the terminal through the data transmission module and carried out. By comparison, according to the different positions of the data, when the values ​​of the two groups of flow sensors of the input end and the Cat.1 water meter body 1 are different, the vertical electric push rod 211 on this side is inserted into the jack 212 of the tooth plate 23, and the two-way electric push rod 29 drives the tooth plate 23 to move and mesh with the gear 28, driving the reel seat 27 to reel the pull rope 26. In the initial state, the vertical plate 215 is vertical, and the baffle 313 of the vertical pipe 311 blocks the horizontal pipe opening at the lower end of the connecting pipe 3. At this time, the water flows to the monitoring pipe 4, the vertical pipe 311, the horizontal pipe at the upper end of the connecting pipe 3, and the Cat. t.1 water meter body 1, through the movement of the pull rope 26, the vertical plate 215 is pulled to rotate, and at the same time, through the connection of the fixed shaft seat 25, the first connecting rod 22 and the second connecting rod 213 are synchronously rotated, and the plug rod 312 passing through the top of the vertical pipe 311 at both ends of the connecting pipe 3 is moved upward, and the baffle 313 moves along the inside of the vertical pipe 311, from blocking the horizontal pipe at the lower end to blocking the horizontal pipe at the upper end. The water flows along the horizontal pipe at the lower end into the Cat.1 water meter body 1. When comparing the data values ​​of the flow sensor inside the monitoring tube 4 and the Cat.1 water meter body 1, it is still When there is a difference, it is determined that the Cat.1 water meter body 1 is leaking, and the staff is notified in time to carry out maintenance and replacement to avoid affecting the recording of the flow value. When the data values ​​are the same or the difference is small, it means that there is a leak in the connecting pipe 3, and the residents are notified to repair or replace the connecting pipe 3 by themselves to maintain normal water flow delivery. The detection coordination between one side of the output end and the Cat.1 water meter body 1 is the same. The two-way electric push rod 29 can select the side with the abnormality to switch the water flow direction, and can also simultaneously start the connecting pipes 3 on both sides to switch the flow direction.
