Detailed Implementation

[0016] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will now be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0017] Reference Figures 1 to 7 A testing device for a coffee machine flow meter includes a body 1 and a worktable 11 mounted on the body 1. The worktable 11 is provided with a positioning fixture 2 for positioning the coffee machine flow meter. The positioning fixture 2 includes a support base 21 mounted on the worktable 11, several positioning components 22 mounted on the support base 21 for positioning the coffee machine flow meter, and several clamping mechanisms 23 mounted on the support base 21 for pressing the coffee machine flow meter onto the positioning components 22 for fixation. A pipe insertion block 24 is provided on the support base 21 and located on one side of the positioning components 22. The pipe insertion block 24 is provided with a test water inlet channel 241 connected to the inlet of the coffee machine flow meter and a test water outlet channel 242 connected to the outlet of the coffee machine flow meter. The outlet of the test water inlet channel 241 and the inlet of the test water outlet channel 242 are both located on the front side of the pipe insertion block 24. By integrating the test inlet channel 241 and the test outlet channel 242 onto the pipe connector block 24, and then cooperating with the clamping mechanism 23, the coffee machine flow meter is initially positioned by the positioning component 22 and then clamped and fixed by the clamping mechanism 23. This allows the inlet and outlet of the coffee machine flow meter to automatically align and fit tightly with the corresponding channel interfaces on the pipe connector block 24, thus achieving quick connection, eliminating the cumbersome step of connecting a separate hose, and improving testing efficiency.

[0018] The machine body 1 contains a first water tank 3 for providing test water. The machine body 1 has a water inlet 12 connected to the inlet of the test water inlet channel 241 and a drain outlet 13 connected to the outlet of the test water outlet channel 242. A flow regulating pipe 4 for adjusting the flow rate of the test water is provided between the water inlet 12 and the first water tank 3. The first water tank 3 also contains a heater and a temperature sensor to ensure a stable water level for the test water, and a water level sensor for replenishing water. Thus, the flow regulating pipe 4 provides a stable and precisely adjustable water flow to the testing system, simulating the water flow conditions of a coffee machine under different operating conditions, thereby comprehensively testing the metering accuracy of the coffee machine's flow meter at various flow rates.

[0019] The machine body 1 contains a second water tank 5 and an electronic scale 6 for detecting the weight of the second water tank 5. A guide pipe 7 is connected to the drain outlet 13 to direct the test water flowing through it into the second water tank 5. A drain pipe 8 is located at the bottom of the second water tank 5 to discharge the test water. Because the coffee machine flow meter is small, the flow rate is low; therefore, the electronic scale 6 is used to calculate the flow rate by weighing, thereby improving the testing accuracy.

[0020] In this scheme, the flow regulation pipeline 4 includes an outlet pipe 41 connected to the bottom of the first water tank 3, several flow regulation pipelines 42 connected in parallel to the outlet pipe 41, and a flow detection pipeline 43 connected to each flow regulation pipeline 42. The outlet pipe 41 is equipped with a first water filter 411 and a first water pump 412. The flow regulation pipelines 42 include a large flow regulation pipeline 421 for regulating large flow rates and a small flow regulation pipeline 422 connected in parallel to the large flow regulation pipeline 421 for regulating small flow rates. The large flow regulation pipeline 421 is equipped with a large flow valve 4211 and a large flow regulating valve 4212. The small flow regulation pipeline 422 is equipped with a small flow valve 4221 and a small flow regulating valve 4222. The flow detection pipeline 43 is equipped with a pressure regulating valve 431, a first pressure sensor 432, and a first pressure gauge 433. By setting up parallel large and small flow regulation pipelines 422, a wide testing range from extremely low flow rates to extremely high flow rates can be covered. The large and small flow regulating valves 4222 can finely adjust the flow rate of their respective pipelines, while the pressure regulating valve 431 is used to stabilize the test inlet pressure. The pressure sensor and pressure gauge are used to monitor and display the pressure value in real time. In addition, the first water filter 411 can effectively filter out impurities in the water, protecting the flow meter under test and precision components such as valves and water pumps in the pipeline, and extending the service life of the equipment.

[0021] In this design, the outlet pipe 41 is connected to a diversion pipe 44 for stabilizing water pressure. The other end of the diversion pipe 44 is connected to the first water tank 3. The diversion pipe 44 is equipped with a second pressure gauge 441, a second pressure sensor 442, and a first ball valve 443. Thus, when the first water pump 412 is operating, its output flow rate may exceed the maximum flow rate required for testing. Excess water can be directly bypassed and returned to the first water tank 3 through the diversion pipe 44, making the water flow in the flow regulation pipe 4 more stable.

[0022] In this design, the drainage pipe 8 includes a drainage pipe 81, a second ball valve 811, a drainage funnel 812, and a first check valve 813 installed on the drainage pipe 81. The drainage funnel 812 guides the water remaining in the second water tank 5 to the external sewer, and the first check valve 813 prevents the discharged water from flowing back into the machine body 1.

[0023] In this scheme, a return pipe 9 is connected above the second water tank 5 to pump the test water in the second water tank 5 back to the first water tank 3. The return pipe 9 includes a return pipe 91, a second water pump 911 and a second check valve 912 installed on the return pipe 91. A water pumping pipe 913 made of rigid material is connected to the second water pump 911. The body 1 is provided with a lifting cylinder 914 that can drive the second water pump 911 to move up and down, so that the water inlet of the water pumping pipe 913 has two position states. A water level sensor is provided at the top of the second water tank 5 to check the overflow water level.

[0024] When in the first position, the lifting cylinder 914 drives the second water pump 911 to move to the top, and the water inlet of the water pumping pipe 913 is not higher than the top of the second water tank 5 to prevent the test water in the second water tank 5 from overflowing.

[0025] When in the second position, the lifting cylinder 914 drives the second water pump 911 to move to the lowest position, and the water inlet of the water pumping pipe 913 is located at the bottom of the second water tank 5, so as to pump the test water in the second water tank 5 back into the first water tank 3.

[0026] During the test (first position), the water inlet is located at the top of the water tank, preventing contact with or interference with the water surface and ensuring the accuracy of the weighing by the electronic scale 6. Simultaneously, it serves as a safety protection against overflow should the water level in the tank rise abnormally. After the test (second position), the lifting cylinder 914 lowers the water pump to the bottom of the water tank, allowing all the collected test water to be pumped back to the first water tank 3, achieving water recycling and conserving water resources.

[0027] In this solution, the bottom of the first water tank 3 is connected to a water supply pipe 31, which includes a water supply pipe 311, a third ball valve 312, a second water filter 313, and a water supply valve 314 installed on the water supply pipe 311. The top of the first water tank 3 is connected to an overflow prevention pipe 32, and the bottom is connected to a water discharge pipe 33, which includes a water discharge pipe 331 and a water discharge valve 332 installed on the water discharge pipe 331. The water supply pipe 31 is used to replenish water to the first water tank 3 from an external water source when the equipment is running for the first time or when the water level in the first water tank 3 is too low, and the cleanliness of the replenished water is ensured by the second water filter 313; the overflow prevention pipe 32 serves as a safety protection for the first water tank 3, and when the water level is too high, excess water can be discharged through this pipe to prevent overflow; the drain pipe 33 is used to completely empty the water in the first water tank 3 when the equipment is shut down for a long time, for maintenance or water replacement, which is convenient to operate.

[0028] In this solution, the positioning component 22 includes a support block 221 disposed on the support base 21 and a positioning block 222 disposed on the rear side of the support block 221. The positioning block 222 includes a positioning groove 2221 disposed on the front side for positioning the coffee machine flow meter, a first slot 2222 disposed on its rear side wall for the coffee machine flow meter inlet to pass through, and a second slot 2223 disposed on its rear side wall for the coffee machine flow meter outlet to pass through. In this way, the support block 221 supports the front part of the coffee machine flow meter, and the positioning block 222 is used to limit the rear part of the coffee machine flow meter. When the flow meter is placed on the support block 221, its tail is embedded in the positioning groove 2221. At this time, the inlet and outlet of the coffee machine flow meter are respectively inserted into the first slot 2222 and the second slot 2223 so as to connect with the interface on the pipe plug block 24 located at the rear. Furthermore, the positioning groove 2221 is provided with limiting grooves 2224 on both the left and right sides to limit the left and right sides of the coffee machine flow meter. The limiting grooves 2224 on both sides match the protrusions or contours on the side of the coffee machine flow meter, thereby preventing the coffee machine flow meter from wobbling left and right during clamping. This provides a reliable alignment basis for subsequent precise pressing and sealing docking, and improves the repeatability and accuracy of the test.

[0029] In this design, the support base 21 includes at least two support legs 211 mounted on the workbench 11, a first support plate 212 horizontally mounted on the support legs 211, and a second support plate 213 vertically mounted on the rear side of the first support plate 212. The positioning block 222 is mounted on the front side of the second support plate 213, and the pipe insertion block 24 is mounted on the rear side of the second support plate 213. The second support plate 213 has an opening 2131 through which the inlet and outlet of the coffee machine flow meter can pass. This raises the entire fixture via the support legs 211, facilitating the arrangement of the drive mechanism below. The first support plate 212 provides a platform for the installation of the clamping mechanism 23, while the second support plate 213 serves as the mounting base for the positioning component 22 and the pipe insertion block 24. Furthermore, the opening 2131 on the second support plate 213 allows the inlet and outlet of the flow meter to pass through and connect with the pipe insertion block 24 located at the rear, resulting in a more compact and rational overall structural layout.

[0030] In this design, the pipe connector 24 includes a cover plate 243 located on the front side within the opening 2131. The cover plate 243 has a first through hole 244 communicating with the outlet of the test water inlet channel 241 and a second through hole 245 communicating with the inlet of the test water outlet channel 242. Both the first through hole 244 and the second through hole 245 are equipped with sealing rings 246. Thus, when the flow meter is pushed backward by the clamping mechanism 23, the inlet and outlet ends of the flow meter are inserted into the first through hole 244 and the second through hole 245 respectively, compressing the sealing rings 244 to form a reliable radial seal, thereby improving test accuracy.

[0031] In this solution, the clamping mechanism 23 includes a push block 231 disposed above the first support plate 212 and movable back and forth to push the coffee machine flow meter located on the support block 221 toward the positioning block 222 for clamping and fixing; a telescopic cylinder 232 disposed at the bottom of the first support plate 212 and capable of driving the push block 231 to move back and forth; and a transmission block 233 disposed between the push block 231 and the telescopic cylinder 232. The rear side of the push block 231 is provided with a push groove 2311 that matches the shape of the front side of the coffee machine flow meter.

[0032] Based on the above-described preferred embodiments of the present invention, and through the foregoing description, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the inventive concept. The technical scope of this invention is not limited to the contents of the specification, but must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
