TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of intelligent water meters, and particularly relates to an intelligent water meter based on the Internet of Things and facilitating control of water consumption. BACKGROUND

[0002] An intelligent water meter is a new type of water meter that uses modern microelectronic technology, modern sensing technology and intelligent IC card technology to measure water consumption and perform water data transmission and settlement transactions. In combination with the Internet of Things technology, a user can control the electromagnetic valve in the intelligent water meter through the Internet of Things to realize opening, closing and water consumption control of the intelligent water meter. Compared with a traditional water meter that generally only has the functions of flow acquisition and mechanical pointer display of water consumption, the intelligent water meter is a great progress and is more convenient for users to save water. Therefore, when an old city is renovated, old water meters are replaced with the new intelligent water meters.

[0003] The existing intelligent water meter based on the Internet of Things and facilitating control of water consumption is usually installed through flange connection between flanges. When a new water supply pipeline is built, the size of the flanges can be unified to ensure that the flanges are matched with each other during installation. However, when the water meter is upgraded during renovation of an old city, the positions and sizes of the mounting holes in the flanges on the old water pipes are inconsistent, and the positions and sizes of the mounting holes in the flanges on the existing intelligent water meters are fixed and cannot be adjusted adaptively. Therefore, the applicability is very poor, so that when the intelligent water meter is installed, a plurality of intelligent water meters with different specifications and sizes of flanges need to be prepared in advance, and when the flanges are connected and installed, the workers need to install a plurality of bolts one by one, which is very cumbersome and seriously affects the installation efficiency of the intelligent water meter. Moreover, because the bolts need to be installed one by one, the fastening degrees of the bolts are inconsistent, and the flanges cannot be ensured to be parallel, so that the sealing between the flanges is poor. SUMMARY

[0004] The present application aims at solving the problems in the prior art, such as: the existing smart water meter based on the Internet of Things for facilitating water consumption control is usually installed by flange connection between flanges, and when a new water supply pipeline is constructed, the size of the flange can be unified to ensure that the flanges match each other during installation, but when the water meter is upgraded in the old urban area, the installation hole positions on the flanges of the old water pipes are inconsistent, and the sizes are inconsistent, and the positions and sizes of the installation holes on the flanges of the existing smart water meters are fixed and cannot be adjusted adaptively, so the applicability is very poor, which requires the preparation of smart water meters with multiple different specifications and sizes in advance, and when the flanges are connected and installed, the workers need to install multiple bolts one by one, which is very cumbersome and seriously affects the installation efficiency of the smart water meter, and because the bolts are installed one by one, the fastening degree of each bolt is inconsistent, and the parallelism between the flanges cannot be ensured, so the sealing performance between the flanges is poor.

[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present application adopts the following technical scheme:

[0016] 3. Only the handle needs to be held, the plug rod is inserted into the positioning groove on the flange plate, and then the handle is rotated around the axis of the water collecting pipe to drive the fastening seat to rotate around the bolt, thereby completing the threaded connection and installation between the bolt and the threaded groove on the fastening seat. The operation is simple and convenient, and since the installation progress of each bolt is consistent, the sealing property between the flanges is well guaranteed, and the installation efficiency is significantly improved.

Then install multiple second limit nuts on the threaded rod in sequence to further limit and fix the protective plate, enhance the fixing effect, and prevent the protective plate from falling off. Use the protective plate to shield the structure between the flange and the water pipe to prevent dust and foreign objects from entering and affecting the disassembly, installation and replacement of the water meter when it malfunctions.

[0025] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments.

[0026] Reference Figures 1-6The utility model provides an intelligent water meter based on internet of things is convenient for controlling water consumption, including intelligent water meter shell 1, two water pipes 2 are symmetrically equipped on the outside wall of intelligent water meter shell 1, and the flange plate 3 is equipped on two water pipes 2, and a plurality of mobile adjusting seat 4 are equipped between water pipe 2 and flange plate 3, and the limiting ring 5 is fixedly connected on water pipe 2, and the limiting inner gear ring 6 is fixedly connected on the inner side wall of flange plate 3, and the outer side wall of mobile adjusting seat 4 is equipped with the gear slot 7, and the limiting ring 5 and limiting inner gear ring 6 are all located in gear slot 7, and a plurality of mobile adjusting seat 4 are all connected with fastening seat 8 through limiting device.

[0027] Limiting device includes limiting card 11, and two limiting holes are equipped on limiting card 11, and the both ends of fastening seat 8 are rotatably connected in two limiting holes, and limiting card 11 is slidably connected on the outer side wall of mobile adjusting seat 4, and limiting card 11 is spliced by two clamping pieces 12, and the side wall of two clamping pieces 12 is fixedly connected with fixed rod 13, and fixed rod 13 is semicylindrical, and the curved side wall of two fixed rods 13 is equipped with matching thread, and the outer side wall of two fixed rods 13 is screw-connected with first limiting nut 14, and the outer side wall of fastening seat 8 is fixedly connected with gear 9, and the inner side wall of mobile adjusting seat 4 is engagedly connected with screw groove 10, and the portable rotating device is equipped on flange plate 3.

[0028] Portable rotating device includes a plurality of positioning grooves 15, and a plurality of positioning grooves 15 are symmetrically arranged on the outer side wall of flange plate 3, and plug rod 16 is inserted in positioning groove 15, and handle 17 is fixedly connected on the end of plug rod 16 away from flange plate 3, and the edge of the end of plug rod 16 close to flange plate 3 is rounded, and anti-skid rubber film is arranged on the outer side wall of handle 17, and protection device is arranged between water pipe 2 and flange plate 3, and protection device includes baffle 18, and baffle 18 is fixedly connected on the outer side wall of water pipe 2, and a plurality of threaded rods 19 are symmetrically fixedly connected on the side wall of flange plate 3 close to intelligent water meter shell 1, and two protection plates 20 are arranged between water pipe 2 and threaded rod 19, and second limiting nut 21 is screw-connected on the outer side wall of threaded rod 19.

[0029] In use, since mobile adjusting seat 4 is rotatably connected between water pipe 2 and flange plate 3, and since limiting ring 5 and limiting gear ring 6 are both located in gear slot 7, limiting ring 5 and limiting gear ring 6 both limit mobile adjusting seat 4, so that mobile adjusting seat 4 can only move between the outer side wall of water pipe 2 and the inner side wall of flange plate 3, and fastening seat 8 is connected in limiting ring 5 through limiting device, and limiting card 11 is rotatably connected with the inner side wall of limiting ring 5, so that fastening seat 8 can also move around the inner side wall of limiting ring 5, and the combination of the two enables the position of fastening seat 8 to be arbitrarily adjusted between the outer side wall of water pipe 2 and the inner side wall of flange plate 3, so that the position of screw groove 10 can be arbitrarily adjusted.

[0030] In the design of the application, the fastening seat 8 and the threaded groove 10 correspond to the mounting hole on the traditional flange structure, and the nut structure is combined with the mounting hole in one body. Since the position of the fastening seat 8 can be moved and adjusted, the flange structure in the application can be adaptively adjusted according to the position of the mounting hole on the corresponding flange to be installed, thereby significantly improving the installation adaptability of the intelligent water meter proposed in the application, so that the intelligent water meter based on the Internet of Things and convenient for controlling water consumption can be applied to the butt joint installation between flanges of different specifications and sizes on the water pipe to be installed.

[0031] Since the limiting piece 11 on the limiting device is spliced by two clamping pieces 12, the fastening seat 8 can be detached from above. Therefore, when the size of the threaded groove 10 on the fastening seat 8 is inconsistent with the size of the mounting hole, only the first limiting nut 14 needs to be rotated and detached from the fixed rod 13, the two clamping pieces 12 are separated, the fastening seat 8 is taken out, and then a new fastening seat 8 with a threaded groove 10 of appropriate size is replaced. The operation of disassembly and installation is simple and convenient.

The operation is simple and convenient. Since the installation progress of each bolt is consistent, the sealing between the flanges is well guaranteed, and the installation efficiency is significantly improved.

[0033] After the butt joint installation between the flange plate 3 and the flange on the water pipe to be installed is completed, the two protective plates 20 are sequentially placed between the outer side wall of the water receiving pipe 2 and the threaded rod 19, the protective plate 20 is arranged close to the side wall of the flange plate 3 abutting the stop ring 18, the protective plate 20 is fixed by limiting with the flange plate 3 through the stop ring 18, then a plurality of second limiting nuts 21 are sequentially installed on the threaded rod 19, the protective plate 20 is further fixed by limiting, the fixing effect is enhanced, the protective plate 20 is prevented from falling off, the structure between the flange plate 3 and the water receiving pipe 2 is shielded by the protective plate 20, dust and foreign matters are prevented from entering, and the subsequent disassembly, installation and replacement for maintenance when the water meter fails are affected.
