[0025] like Figures 1-7As shown, the housing 1 has a hollow structure; the pump 2 is installed inside the housing 1, and the pump 2 has an outlet pipe 21 and an inlet pipe 22 arranged opposite to each other on both sides; the solenoid valve group 3 is connected in series on the inlet pipe 22; the battery 4 is fixedly connected to the housing 1, the battery 4 is located above the outlet pipe 21, and the battery 4 is opposite to the solenoid valve group 3; the control board 5 is installed above the inlet pipe 22, and the control board 5 is located on one side of the solenoid valve group 3; the touch screen 6 is embedded in the housing 1, the touch screen 6 is located on one side of the control board 5, and the touch screen 6 is set at an angle. As described above, the housing 1 is a hollow housing, the interior of which is used for the installation of other components; The pump 2 is installed inside the housing 1. The pump 2 has an outlet pipe 21 and an inlet pipe 22 on its two sides, which are respectively connected to the outlet and inlet of the pump 2. Among them, the battery 4 is connected to the box 1 through the bracket, and the battery 4 is arranged above the water outlet pipe 21, so as to make use of the upper space of the water outlet pipe 21; the solenoid valve group 3 is connected in series on the water inlet pipe 22, and the control board 5 is arranged above the water inlet pipe 22 and located on one side of the solenoid valve group 3, so that the space on one side of the water inlet pipe 22 of the pump 2 is fully utilized. The touch screen 6 is configured to correspond to the battery 4 and is fitted and connected to the housing 1. The touch screen 6 is located on one side of the control board 5 and is set at an angle. This makes full use of the space of the housing 1, resulting in a compact overall structure. It has the advantages of high integration and small size, making it easy to carry and use, and effectively improving the convenience of application.
[0026] Furthermore, a temperature sensor is connected in series between the outlet pipe 21 and / or the inlet pipe 22. This allows for real-time monitoring of the water temperature, which facilitates compensation when the flow meter reading deviates due to water temperature factors, thereby improving the accuracy of volume measurement.
[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, the housing 1 includes a bottom plate 11, a top cover 12, a frame 13, and a carrier plate 14. The top cover 12 is provided on the bottom plate 11 to form a hollow structure. The frame 13 is provided on the bottom plate 11, and the pump 2, the outlet pipe 21, the inlet pipe 22, the solenoid valve group 3, and the battery 4 are all provided on the frame 13. The carrier plate 14 is provided on the side of the pump 2 away from the frame 13, and the carrier plate 14 has a slot 101 corresponding to the solenoid valve group 3. The control board 5 is provided on the carrier plate 14. As described above, in the structure of box 1, the bottom plate 11 is connected to the top cover 12 to form an accommodating space; The frame 13 is set on the base plate 11 to facilitate the installation of various components, and the pump 2 and battery 4 are connected and fixed to the frame 13. The carrier plate 14 is located on the upper part of the pump 2. The carrier plate 14 is connected and fixed to the frame 13 by a connector. The control plate 5 is located on the carrier plate 14. Thus, the pump 2 and the touch screen 6 are arranged in layers. The carrier plate 14 is provided with a slot 101 to avoid the solenoid valve group 3. Thus, the solenoid valve group 3 and the control plate 5 are located on the same side, while the touch screen 6 is tilted on the other side. This makes full use of the space on the carrier plate 14 where the control plate 5 is not located. It has the advantages of reasonable and compact layout and further reduces the overall volume.
[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, the housing 1 also includes a pipe support 15. Two pipe supports 15 are provided on the frame 13, and the water outlet pipe 21 and the water inlet pipe 22 each pass through one pipe support 15. As described above, a pipe support 15 is provided on the frame 13, which can support and fix the water outlet pipe 21 and the water inlet pipe 22, thereby ensuring the stability of the structure.
[0029] like Figure 3 As shown, the housing 1 also includes isolation columns 16. Multiple isolation columns 16 are provided on the frame 13. The carrier plate 14 and the solenoid valve assembly 3 are all supported and fixed by the isolation columns 16. As described above, the housing 1 is provided with several isolation columns 16. The isolation columns 16 are fixed to the frame 13 and the carrier plate 14 by screws, thereby forming an accommodating space on the upper and lower sides of the carrier plate 14 to realize the layered installation of each component. In order to further improve the stability of the structure, the solenoid valve assembly 3 is connected to the frame 13 through several short isolation columns 16.
[0030] like Figure 4 As shown, the water inlet pipe 22 includes a quick-release bend 221, a hose 222, and an external thread 223. The quick-release bend 221 is connected to the water inlet of the pump 2; one end of the hose 222 is connected to the quick-release bend 221, and the other end of the hose 222 is connected to the solenoid valve assembly 3; the external thread 223 is connected to the solenoid valve assembly 3. As described above, the inlet pipe 22 is connected to the pump 2 via a quick-release bend 221, and the quick-release bend 221 is connected to the solenoid valve assembly 3 via a flexible hose 222. The external structure is equipped with an external threaded bend 223 connected to the solenoid valve assembly 3. The outlet pipe 21 adopts the same structure, but the outlet pipe 21 is not connected to the solenoid valve assembly 3. Therefore, the flexible hose in the outlet pipe 21 is directly connected to the external threaded bend. The solenoid valve assembly 3 is fitted into the frame 13, so a flexible hose 222 is used to connect the solenoid valve assembly 3 to the quick-release bend pagoda 221 to facilitate the layout and installation of the components.
[0031] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a groove plate 23 is provided at the water inlet of the pump 2, and a buckle 24 is slidably provided in the groove plate 23. One end of the quick-release bend pagoda 221 passes through the groove plate 23 and is inserted into the water inlet of the pump 2; the buckle 24 is engaged with the quick-release bend pagoda 221. As described above, the inlet of the pump 2 is provided with a groove plate 23 for installing the buckle 24. Thus, when installing the quick-release bend pagoda 221, the quick-release bend pagoda 221 is passed through the groove plate 23 and inserted into the inlet of the pump 2. Then, the buckle 24 is slid to engage and fix the buckle 24 with the quick-release bend pagoda 221. This has the advantage of convenient assembly and disassembly.
[0032] like Figure 5 As shown, the locking component 7 is connected to the quick-release bend pagoda 221, and the locking component 7 has a limiting buckle 24; As described above, in order to prevent the buckle 24 from coming out of the slot plate 23 due to external forces such as vibration, a locking member 7 is provided to lock and fix the buckle 24, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the quick-release bend pagoda 221 and the pump 2.
[0033] like Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, the locking component 7 includes a ring frame 71, a connecting plate 72, and a limiting block 73. The ring frame 71 is fixedly connected to the quick-release bend pagoda 221; one end of the connecting plate 72 is connected to the ring frame 71; the limiting block 73 is connected to the other end of the connecting plate 72, and the limiting block 73 abuts against the end of the buckle 24 away from the quick-release bend pagoda 221. As described above, the locking element 7 is connected to the quick-release bend tower 221 via the ring frame 71. The ring frame 71 is connected to the limiting block 73 via the connecting plate 72. The limiting block 73 holds the end of the buckle 24 away from the quick-release bend tower 221, so that the buckle 24 will not come out. At the same time, after the quick-release bend tower 221 is connected to the solenoid valve assembly 3 via the hose 222, the quick-release bend tower 221 is limited and cannot rotate, thus locking the buckle 24 and further improving the reliability of the application. like Figure 8 As shown, when it is necessary to remove the quick-release bend pagoda 221, first remove the hose 222, then the quick-release bend pagoda 221 can be rotated, and the locking part 7 rotates synchronously to form the structure shown in the figure. At this time, the locking part 7 disengages from the buckle 24, and the buckle 24 can be pulled out, and then the quick-release bend pagoda 221 can be removed.
[0034] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the self-locking switch 8 and the charging port 9 are installed on the housing 1; the pump 2, the solenoid valve group 3, the battery 4, the control board 5, the touch screen 6, the self-locking switch 8 and the charging port 9 are electrically connected. As described above, the charging port 9 is used to charge the battery 4, and the battery 4 is used to power the solenoid valve group 3, the pump 2 and the touch screen 6. When measuring the volume, the pump 2 injects water into the boiler and displays the real-time volume parameters and temperature parameters on the touch screen 6. Among them, the control board 5 is a circuit board, which is used for the electrical connection of various electrical components.
[0035] The measurement method of the boiler volume measuring device described above, as used in this invention, includes the following steps: S1. Connect the inlet pipe 22 to the water source and connect the outlet pipe 21 to the boiler under test; S2. Control via touchscreen 6 to set the rated volume of the boiler under test; S3. Start pump 2 and inject water into the boiler under test through pump 2; S4. Stop the test after the water filling is complete.
[0036] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
