Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of flow metering instrument technology, and particularly relates to a core counting and sensing mechanism for a Roots gas flow meter's metering chamber. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, the most widely used volumetric gas flow meter in the Chinese market is the Roots gas flow meter. A traditional Roots gas flow meter mainly consists of a housing, conjugate rotors, and a counting device. Its working principle is as follows: a pair of conjugate rotors installed in the metering chamber rotate alternately under the pressure difference between the inlet and outlet of the flowing gas. Each rotation outputs four times the effective volume of the metering chamber. The rotational speed is measured by a counting device, thus achieving continuous or intermittent measurement of the gas flow rate in the pipeline. This type of flow meter is widely used in industrial production and domestic gas applications due to its wide operating pressure range, high measurement accuracy, broad measuring range, and strong adaptability to various media.
[0003] In terms of flow measurement methods, existing Roots gas flow meters are mainly divided into three categories according to user requirements: one is to directly count and display the flow rate using a counter after mechanical deceleration; the second is to obtain flow data through intelligent calculation after collecting pulse, pressure, and temperature sensor signals; and the third is to simultaneously configure the above two methods to achieve dual display of mechanical and intelligent flow. However, the flow meter structures corresponding to different measurement methods vary greatly, resulting in a wide variety of required components and poor versatility. This not only significantly increases the manufacturing cost of the product but also brings many inconveniences to on-site installation, commissioning, and subsequent maintenance.
[0004] More notably, existing Roots gas flow meters generally employ an external sensing structure, meaning that the pulse, pressure, and temperature sensor lines required for signal acquisition by the intelligent totalizer are all located outside the housing. This structure has the following significant drawbacks: First, the external piping affects the simplicity and aesthetics of the overall product appearance; second, exposed piping is highly susceptible to breakage and damage during transportation, installation, and use. Once the sensor signal is interrupted, the flow meter will be unable to perform standard condition measurements, directly causing the cessation of trade settlement measurement work and resulting in serious economic losses for both suppliers and buyers; third, frequent maintenance and parts replacement significantly increase the operating costs of the equipment; fourth, the external structure is loosely integrated, making it difficult to fully adapt to complex and changing on-site installation environments, limiting its application in certain special working conditions.
[0005] With the international adoption of standard operating condition flow data obtained through intelligent conversion of sensor signals as the basis for commodity trade settlement, higher demands are placed on the measurement stability, reliability, and field adaptability of Roots gas flow meters. Therefore, developing a new type of Roots gas flow meter core counting sensor mechanism that can overcome the aforementioned shortcomings of existing technologies, possesses both mechanical and intelligent dual display functions, has strong component versatility, is convenient for installation and maintenance, and has an integrated sensing pipeline, has become an urgent technical problem to be solved in this field.

[0029] The following specific embodiments illustrate the implementation of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of the present invention from the content disclosed in this specification. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0030] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6This invention provides a core counting and sensing mechanism for a Roots gas flow meter's metering chamber, comprising a housing 1, a mechanical core counting mechanism 2, a built-in sensing mechanism 3, and a magnetic coupling 4. The housing 1 is fixedly connected to the front cover 12 of the Roots gas flow meter's metering chamber, and houses and supports the mechanical core counting mechanism 2 and the built-in sensing mechanism 3. The magnetic coupling 4 is used to non-contactly sense and transmit the rotational speed of the rotor inside the Roots gas flow meter's metering chamber to the mechanical core counting mechanism 2. The mechanical core counting mechanism 2 converts the rotational speed signal into a flow rate value through gear transmission and displays it mechanically. The built-in sensing mechanism 3 includes a pulse sensing component, a pressure sensing component, and a temperature sensing component. The pipeline of the built-in sensing mechanism 3 is built inside the housing 1. The pulse sensing component collects the rotor rotational speed pulse signal, and the pressure sensing component and temperature sensing component collect the pressure signal and temperature signal of the gas in the pipeline, respectively, and transmit them to the integrator component for standard flow rate calculation.
[0031] Among them, the magnetic coupling device 4 adopts non-contact magnetic coupling transmission, eliminating the need for openings in the high-pressure housing of the metering chamber, thus avoiding the risk of gas leakage, and achieving complete isolation between the metering chamber and the meter core mechanism. The mechanical meter core counting mechanism 2 is driven by the pressure difference energy generated by the gas-driven rotor, requiring no external power supply throughout the process, making it particularly suitable for areas without power supply in the field and explosive hazardous environments. The built-in sensing mechanism 3 completely hides all signal pipelines inside the housing, fundamentally solving the problem of standard condition measurement interruption caused by external pipelines being easily torn by external forces or aging and damaged, ensuring the continuity of settlement measurement, and making the overall appearance of the product more concise and neat.
[0032] In this embodiment, the housing part 1 includes a first layer plate 26, a second layer plate 31, a third layer plate 44, a plurality of first pillars 32, and a plurality of second pillars 43; the first layer plate 26, the second layer plate 31, and the third layer plate 44 are arranged in parallel, the first layer plate 26 and the second layer plate 31 are fixedly connected by the first pillars 32, and the second layer plate 31 and the third layer plate 44 are fixedly connected by the second pillars 43 to form an internal space for accommodating the mechanical watch movement counting mechanism 2 and the built-in sensing mechanism 3; the third layer plate 44 is machined with through holes to allow the sensing components in the built-in sensing mechanism 3 to pass through; the housing part 1 also includes a watch head cover 6 and a sensing cover 7, the watch head cover 6, the sensing cover 7, and the third layer plate 44 are fixedly connected by the first screws 5 and the front cover 12, and rubber asbestos plates are installed between each component for sealing.
[0033] Specifically, the housing 1 adopts a three-layer plate support structure, dividing the internal space into two independent functional areas: the mechanical transmission area is between the first plate 26 and the second plate 31, where a gear reduction system and a mechanical counter 27 are installed; the sensor acquisition area is between the second plate 31 and the third plate 44, where pulse, pressure, and temperature sensors are centrally located. This partitioned design ensures that the functional modules do not interfere with each other, allowing for pre-assembly of each module before overall assembly, significantly improving production efficiency. During maintenance, individual modules can also be disassembled. Through-holes on the third plate 44 provide direct access to the metering chamber for the sensing elements, ensuring the accuracy of sensor signal acquisition. The meter head cover 6 is made of transparent material, protecting the counter 27 from dust and moisture without affecting the observation of the meter's working status; the sensor cover 7 provides physical protection for the protruding sensing components, preventing damage from collisions during transportation and installation.
[0034] In this embodiment, both ends of the first support column 32 are machined with steps and threaded holes, and the first layer plate 26 and the second layer plate 31 are machined with corresponding through holes. The first layer plate 26 and the second layer plate 31 are fixedly connected by screws. One end of the second support column 43 is provided with a step, and the other end of the second support column 43 is machined with a step and threaded holes. The second support column 43 is riveted to the third layer plate 44, and the second support column 43 is fixedly connected to the second layer plate 31 by screws. The first layer plate 26 is machined with process holes for mounting screws, so as to facilitate the screws used to fasten the second support column 43 and the second layer plate 31 with a screwdriver. The housing part 1 is fixedly installed on the front cover 12 of the metering chamber of the Roots gas flow meter by the first screw 5. The front cover 12 is provided with an oil window 13 and an oil plug 14.
[0035] Specifically, the first support column 32 adopts a threaded connection at both ends, facilitating repeated disassembly and reassembly of the first layer plate 26 and the second layer plate 31, thus providing convenience for the debugging and maintenance of the mechanical transmission system. The second support column 43 adopts a hybrid connection process of riveting at one end and screwing at the other end. The riveting ensures the connection strength and perpendicularity of the third layer plate 44, while the screwing facilitates the disassembly and adjustment of the second layer plate 31. The mounting screw holes on the first layer plate 26 serve as space for a screwdriver when tightening the screws connecting the second support column 43 and the second layer plate 31. The housing part 1 is securely fixed to the front cover 12 of the metering chamber by the first screw 5. The oil window 13 is used to observe the level of the lubricating oil in the metering chamber in real time, and the oil plug 14 is used for periodically adding and replacing the lubricating oil to ensure the lubrication effect of the conjugate rotor and extend the service life of the flow meter.
[0036] In this embodiment, the magnetic coupling device 4 includes a spacer 15, a first magnet sleeve 19, and a signal disk 18. The spacer 15 is fixedly installed on the front cover 12 of the main body of the Roots gas flow meter metering chamber by a third screw 16. The first magnet sleeve 19 is fixedly installed on the rotor shaft inside the Roots gas flow meter metering chamber. The signal disk 18 is fixedly connected to the first magnet sleeve 19 by a fourth screw 17. The signal disk 18 is a circular component, and several blind holes are evenly arranged on the edge of the signal disk 18. A magnet is interference-fitted into each blind hole, and the position of the magnet corresponds to the center position of the pulse sensing component.
[0037] Specifically, the magnetic coupling device 4 operates based on the magnetic coupling principle of attraction between opposite magnetic poles. When the conjugate rotor in the metering chamber rotates under the pressure difference between the gas inlet and outlet, it drives the first magnet sleeve 19 on the rotor shaft to rotate synchronously. Its magnetic field penetrates the non-magnetic front cover 12 of the metering chamber, driving the second magnet sleeve 42 on the core side to rotate synchronously, thereby transmitting the rotor speed to the mechanical counting mechanism without contact. The magnet on the signal disk 18 rotates synchronously with the first magnet sleeve 19. The pulse sensing component detects the change in the magnetic field generated when the magnet passes by, converting the rotor speed into an electrical pulse signal with a frequency proportional to the speed, providing operating flow data for intelligent totalization. The method of interference fit of the magnet without through holes effectively prevents the magnet from falling off due to centrifugal force during high-speed rotation, significantly improving the reliability of the device.
[0038] In this embodiment, the mechanical watch core counting mechanism 2 includes a drive shaft 35, a second magnetic sleeve 42, a first gear set 29, a second gear set 38, and a counter 27. The drive shaft 35 passes through the first layer plate 26, the second layer plate 31, and the third layer plate 44. The second magnetic sleeve 42 is installed at one end of the drive shaft 35. A blind hole is machined on the second magnetic sleeve 42. The second magnetic sleeve 42 is interference-fitted with a magnet to sense the magnetic signal of the magnetic coupling device 4 and drive the drive shaft 35 to rotate. The other end of the drive shaft 35 extends above the first layer plate 26. The first yin-yang plate 331 is fixedly installed on the drive shaft 35 by a nut.
[0039] Specifically, the second magnet sleeve 42 and the first magnet sleeve 19 form a magnetic coupling pair, synchronously transmitting the rotation of the rotor inside the metering chamber to the drive shaft 35. The drive shaft 35, as the power input shaft of the entire mechanical counting mechanism, is responsible for transmitting the magnetically coupled torque to the subsequent gear reduction system. The surface of the first yin-yang plate 331 features a contrasting design of half black and half white, producing a noticeable flashing effect when rotating at high speed synchronously with the drive shaft 35. This facilitates quick judgment by debugging and maintenance personnel as to whether the flow meter is working properly and whether the rotation direction of the drive shaft 35 is correct. The blind hole design on the second magnet sleeve 42 is also to prevent the internal magnets from falling off during high-speed rotation, ensuring the continuity and reliability of the transmission.
[0040] In this embodiment, the first gear set 29 includes a plurality of riveted disc gears in pairs. The first gear set 29 is installed on the first shaft 28 and the second shaft 30 with clearance fit. The first shaft 28 and the second shaft 30 are arranged in parallel, and the two ends of the first shaft 28 / second shaft 30 are respectively in clearance fit with the copper sleeves riveted on the first layer plate 26 and the second layer plate 31. A drive gear 34 is fixedly installed on the drive shaft 35. The drive gear 34 meshes with the first disc gear in the first gear set 29, and the first gear set 29 realizes speed reduction transmission.
[0041] Specifically, the first gear set 29 is the first-stage reduction unit of the mechanical counting mechanism. It adopts a combination structure of multiple riveted gears in pairs. The number of gear teeth and stages can be flexibly adjusted according to the metering chamber volume and range requirements of different diameter flow meters to achieve different reduction ratios, so that the rotational speed of the final counter 27 accurately corresponds to the actual flow value. The gears are clearance-fitted with the first shaft 28 and the second shaft 30, allowing the gears to rotate freely on the shafts and transmit torque only through gear meshing. The copper bushing has excellent wear resistance and self-lubricating properties, which can significantly reduce the frictional resistance between the shaft and the plate, reduce transmission loss, and extend the service life of the mechanism. At the same time, the non-sparking properties of copper meet the explosion-proof requirements.
[0042] In this embodiment, the second gear set 38 includes three disc gears, which are respectively fitted with a clearance fit on three third shafts 36. One end of each of the three third shafts 36 is riveted to the first layer plate 26. One end of the first shaft 28 extends above the first layer plate 26. A first transmission gear 39 is fixedly installed on the first shaft 28. The first transmission gear 39 meshes with the disc gears in the second gear set 38. The second gear set 38 realizes the forward or reverse counting of the counter 27 through the set gear meshing direction.
[0043] Specifically, the second gear set 38 serves as both the second-stage reduction unit and the function of changing the counting direction. The three third shafts 36 are riveted to the first layer plate 26 at one end, resulting in a simple assembly process and compact structure. By changing the meshing sequence and transmission path of the three gears, the rotation direction of the output shaft can be flexibly adjusted, thereby enabling the counter 27 to count forward or backward, meeting the usage requirements of different installation directions (horizontal / vertical) and different fluid flow directions of the flowmeter. The first transmission gear 39 transmits the rotational speed output from the first gear set 29 to the second gear set 38. After secondary reduction, the rotational speed is reduced to a low-speed range suitable for the operation of the counter 27, ensuring the accuracy and stability of the counting.
[0044] In this embodiment, the counter 27 includes a fourth shaft 45, a fifth shaft 46, several counting gears 47, and several auxiliary gears 48. The fourth shaft 45 and the fifth shaft 46 are arranged in parallel, and both ends of the fourth shaft 45 / fifth shaft 46 are respectively clearance-fitted with the copper sleeves riveted to the first layer plate 26 and the second layer plate 31. A second transmission gear 37 is fixedly installed on the fourth shaft 45, and the second transmission gear 37 meshes with the plate gear in the second gear set 38. Several counting gears 47 are also clearance-fitted on the fourth shaft 45. Several auxiliary gears 48 are clearance-fitted on the fifth shaft 46, and each auxiliary gear 48 meshes with two adjacent counting gears 47. One end of the fourth shaft 45 extends above the first layer plate 26, and a second yin-yang plate 332 is fixedly installed on the fourth shaft 45 by a nut.
[0045] Specifically, counter 27 employs a carry transmission structure using counting gear 47 and auxiliary gear 48. The second transmission gear 37 transmits the torque output from the second gear set 38 to the fourth shaft 45, which serves as the input shaft of counter 27, driving the first counting gear 47 to rotate. The fifth shaft 46 is a fixed shaft and does not rotate with the gears. The auxiliary gear 48 is loosely fitted on the fifth shaft 46 and rotates only during carry operations, meshing with adjacent counting gears 47 to achieve carry transmission from lower to higher positions. The second yin-yang symbol 332 functions the same as the first yin-yang symbol 331, visually displaying the rotation status of the input shaft of counter 27, facilitating the determination of whether the carry transmission is functioning correctly. The use of copper sleeves ensures the smooth rotation of the fourth shaft 45 and the fifth shaft 46, reducing friction noise.
[0046] In this embodiment, the outer circumference of each counting gear 47 is evenly distributed with the numbers 0-9, one side in the thickness direction is provided with 20 teeth, and the other side is provided with a flange that protrudes outward and is concave inward, and a small groove is provided on the flange; each auxiliary gear 48 is provided with 8 teeth, and the 8 teeth are arranged in pairs in two thicknesses. When the first counting gear 47 rotates to the position of its raised groove close to the first auxiliary gear 48, the high teeth of the first auxiliary gear 48 fall into the raised groove, driving the first auxiliary gear 48 to rotate, which in turn drives the second counting gear 47 to rotate to achieve carry counting.
[0047] Specifically, the digits 0-9 on the outer circumference of the counting gear 47 are used to visually display the cumulative flow value. Its 20 teeth precisely mesh with the 8 teeth of the auxiliary gear 48, enabling a decimal counting function that carries over once every 10 revolutions. The raised groove on the flange of the counting gear 47 is the key structure for triggering the carry. When the lower-level counting gear 47 rotates once, the raised groove passes through the corresponding auxiliary gear 48 once. The 8 teeth of the auxiliary gear 48 have two thicknesses: the lower teeth always rest on the flange surface of the counting gear 47, preventing the auxiliary gear 48 from rotating freely when not carrying over; the higher teeth fall into the groove when the raised groove passes over them, and are driven by the counting gear 47 to rotate one tooth position, thus pushing the higher-level counting gear 47 to rotate one digit, completing one carry. This process continues, and through the cooperation of multiple levels of counting gears 47 and auxiliary gears 48, continuous cumulative counting from the ones place to the ten-thousands place or even higher places is achieved.
[0048] In this embodiment, a counting gear retaining ring 23 is also included. The counting gear retaining ring 23 is an irregularly shaped copper sheet with an irregularly shaped hole in the middle and four flanges on its edge. A small groove is machined on the fourth shaft 45 corresponding to the position of the first counting gear 47. The counting gear retaining ring 23 is fitted into the small groove and fixedly installed to the fourth shaft 45 through the irregularly shaped hole. Four grooves are machined on the teeth of the first counting gear 47. The four flanges of the counting gear retaining ring 23 are respectively inserted into the four grooves, so that the first counting gear 47 rotates synchronously with the fourth shaft 45.
[0049] Specifically, the counting gear retaining ring 23 is a fixing component that enables the first counting gear 47 to rotate synchronously with the fourth shaft 45. Since all the other counting gears 47, except the first, have a clearance fit with the fourth shaft 45 (rotating only during carry-over), a special structure is needed to fix the first counting gear 47 to the fourth shaft 45. The irregularly shaped hole mates with the small groove on the fourth shaft 45, allowing the counting gear retaining ring 23 to rotate synchronously with the fourth shaft 45 without relative slippage; four flanges engage with the four grooves of the first counting gear 47, firmly connecting the counting gear retaining ring 23 to the first counting gear 47, thus enabling the first counting gear 47 to rotate synchronously with the fourth shaft 45. This fixing method is simple in structure, easy to assemble, and reliable in connection, ensuring that the first counting gear 47 accurately follows the rotation of the fourth shaft 45, providing a stable input for the entire counter 27.
[0050] In this embodiment, the pulse sensing component includes a pulse sensor 11, the pressure sensing component includes a pressure sensor 8, and the temperature sensing component includes a temperature sensor 9. The pulse sensor 11, pressure sensor 8, and temperature sensor 9 are all fixedly mounted on the front cover 12. The integrator is screwed to the outside of the housing portion 1. The pulse sensor 11, pressure sensor 8, and temperature sensor 9 are all electrically connected to the integrator via built-in conduits. The temperature sensor 9 is a shaft-like rod with an internally sealed temperature sensing element, and is threadedly mounted on the front cover 12. The pulse sensor 11 is a tubular part with a flange at one end and a closed end at the other. The pulse sensing element is installed inside the pulse sensor 11, and a through hole is machined on the flange of the pulse sensor 11. The pulse sensor 11 is fixedly mounted on the front cover 12 using a second screw 10. The pressure sensor 8 includes a pressure wire 20, a pressure sensing element 21, and a sheath 22. The pressure sensing element 21 is installed inside the sheath 22, and the pressure wire 20 is used to fix the pressure sensing element 21 inside the sheath 22. The sheath 22 is fixedly mounted on the front cover 12.
[0051] Specifically, the built-in sensing mechanism 3 integrates the acquisition functions of three types of parameters: flow rate, pressure, and temperature, providing complete raw data for standard condition flow rate calculation. The pulse sensor 11 adopts a tubular structure with one end closed, sealing the pulse sensing element internally to prevent dust and moisture intrusion. The flange connection facilitates installation and replacement. The pressure sensor 8 uses a sealed structure of sheath 22 and pressure wire 20, completely sealing the pressure sensing element 21 within the sheath 22. This ensures that the pressure sensing element 21 can accurately sense the gas pressure inside the pipeline while preventing high-pressure gas leakage. The temperature sensor 9 is a shaft-like rod with an internally sealed temperature sensing element. The pressure sensor 8 and temperature sensor 9 are directly inserted into the pipeline, enabling real-time and accurate measurement of the actual gas temperature. After receiving the three types of sensor signals, the integrator converts the volumetric flow rate under operating conditions to the volumetric flow rate under standard conditions (20℃, 101.325kPa) according to the ideal gas law, meeting internationally accepted settlement and metering requirements.
[0052] In this embodiment, a bearing housing 41 with bearing is riveted to the third layer plate 44, and the drive shaft 35 is stably assembled with the bearing housing 41 and the bearing 25 on the first layer plate 26; the bearing 25 is axially positioned by the fifth screw 24.
[0053] Specifically, the drive shaft 35 is a long shaft that runs through the three layers of plates. During operation, it bears the radial and axial forces of the gear transmission, requiring a stable and reliable support structure. A bearing housing 41 with bearings is riveted to the third layer plate 44, providing radial support and axial positioning for the lower end of the drive shaft 35; the bearing 25 on the first layer plate 26 provides radial support for the upper end of the drive shaft 35. This two-point support structure effectively prevents bending deformation and vibration of the drive shaft 35 during high-speed rotation, ensuring the meshing accuracy of the gear transmission and reducing transmission errors and noise. The fifth screw 24 is used to axially position the bearing 25 on the first layer plate 26, preventing axial movement of the bearing 25 during rotation, further improving the operational stability and service life of the drive shaft 35.
[0054] In this embodiment, a counter baffle 40 is also included. The counter baffle 40 is manually wound around the first support column 32. The counter baffle 40 is provided with a window for displaying the flow rate value on the counter 27. All gears in the mechanical dial counting mechanism 2 are standard spur gears with a tooth profile angle of 20 degrees and are made of all-copper material. The drive shaft 35, the first shaft 28, the second shaft 30, the third shaft 36, the fourth shaft 45, and the fifth shaft 46 are all made of carbon steel. All shafts are machined with several axial retaining ring grooves and positioning pin holes or steps for the installation and positioning of the shafts, plates, and gears.
[0055] Specifically, the counter baffle 40 is used to shield the complex gear transmission structure inside the counter 27, exposing only the digital display area, making the reading clearer and more intuitive. The manual winding installation method requires no additional fixing parts, making assembly simple and quick. All gears are standard 20-degree tooth angle spur gears, which have the advantages of smooth transmission, high meshing accuracy, low processing cost, and good interchangeability. The all-copper material has excellent wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and self-lubricating properties, which can significantly reduce gear wear and extend service life. At the same time, the copper material will not generate electric sparks, fully meeting the explosion-proof requirements of explosive gas environments. All shaft parts are made of high-quality carbon steel, with sufficient strength and rigidity to withstand the torque and load generated by gear transmission. The axial retaining ring groove, locating pin hole, and step on the shaft are used to achieve precise positioning and fixation between the shaft and the plate, and between the shaft and the gear, preventing axial movement and relative sliding of parts during operation, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of transmission.
[0056] The working principle of this invention is as follows: When the gas to be measured enters the metering chamber of the Roots gas flow meter, under the influence of the pressure difference between the inlet and outlet, a pair of conjugate rotors inside the metering chamber rotate alternately, outputting four times the effective volume of gas per revolution. The first magnet sleeve 19, fixed on the rotor shaft, rotates synchronously with the rotor. The alternating magnetic field it generates penetrates the non-magnetic front cover 12 of the metering chamber and drives the second magnet sleeve 42 on the meter core side to rotate synchronously through magnetic coupling, realizing contactless transmission of the speed signal. This non-contact transmission eliminates the need for openings in the high-pressure housing of the metering chamber, completely avoiding the risk of gas leakage, and simultaneously achieving complete isolation between the metering chamber and the meter core mechanism. The signal disk 18, fixedly connected to the first magnet sleeve 19, rotates synchronously. Small magnets evenly installed on its edge pass sequentially through the sensing area of the pulse sensor 11, generating an alternating magnetic field signal proportional to the rotor speed.
[0057] The drive gear 34 on the drive shaft 35 meshes with the first gear set 29. The first gear set 29 consists of multiple riveted sprockets, achieving multi-stage speed reduction through multiple gear meshing, reducing the high-speed rotation of the rotor to a low-speed range suitable for the operation of the counter 27. The reduced speed is transmitted to the second gear set 38 via the first transmission gear 39. The second gear set 38 can adjust the gear meshing direction and speed ratio to enable the counter 27 to count in either the forward or reverse direction, adapting to different fluid flow directions and installation orientations. The second gear set 38 drives the fourth shaft 45 to rotate via the second transmission gear 37. The counting gear retaining ring 23 fixes the first counting gear 47 to the fourth shaft 45, causing it to rotate synchronously with the fourth shaft 45. Each counting gear 47 has ten digits (0-9) printed on its outer circumference, 20 teeth on one side in the thickness direction, and a flange with raised grooves on the other side.
[0058] When the first counting gear 47 rotates once, the raised groove on its flange passes precisely through the corresponding auxiliary gear 48. The eight teeth of the auxiliary gear 48 are of two different thicknesses: the lower teeth always rest on the flange surface of the counting gear 47 to prevent free rotation, while the higher teeth fall into the groove as they pass through, and are driven by the counting gear 47 to rotate one tooth position, thereby driving the next higher-position counting gear 47 to rotate one digit, completing one decimal carry. This process continues, with the cooperation of multiple levels of counting gears 47 and auxiliary gears 48, achieving continuous cumulative counting from the units digit to the higher digits. The first yin-yang plate 331 and the second yin-yang plate 332 rotate synchronously with the drive shaft 35 and the fourth shaft 45 respectively, visually displaying the operating status of the mechanism through a half-black, half-white flashing effect; the counter baffle 40 conceals the complex internal gear structure, only revealing the digit display area, making the reading clearer and more intuitive.
[0059] While mechanically counting, the built-in sensing mechanism 3 simultaneously acquires multi-parameter signals and performs intelligent calculations. The pulse sensor 11 detects the change in the magnetic field generated when the small magnet on the signal disk 18 passes by, converting the rotor speed into an electrical pulse signal with a frequency proportional to the flow rate, representing the volumetric flow rate under operating conditions. The pressure sensor 8 directly senses the pressure of the gas in the pipeline through the pressure sensing element 21. The temperature sensor 9 is directly inserted into the pipeline to measure the actual temperature of the gas in real time. The signals from all sensors are transmitted to the intelligent totalizer through pipelines completely built into the housing. The totalizer, based on the ideal gas law (PV=nRT), converts the acquired operating flow rate, pressure, and temperature data into the volumetric flow rate under standard conditions (20℃, 101.325kPa), meeting internationally accepted trade settlement measurement requirements.
[0060] This invention achieves parallel display of mechanical direct reading and intelligent standard condition measurement. The mechanical counter 27 requires no external power supply, relying on the gas's own energy for propagation, and can continuously display the cumulative flow rate even in the event of a power outage, serving as the legal basis for trade settlement. The intelligent accumulation system displays various parameters such as standard condition flow rate, instantaneous flow rate, and cumulative flow rate in real time, and can realize data storage and remote transmission functions, meeting the needs of modern management. The two measurement paths are independent of each other and serve as backups for each other, ensuring both the reliability and continuity of measurement while taking into account traditional trade settlement habits and intelligent management requirements.
[0061] Although the present invention has been described in detail above with general descriptions and specific embodiments, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, all such modifications or improvements made without departing from the spirit of the present invention fall within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.
