[0029] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0030] See also Figure 1-6 The utility model provides a technical solution: a backflow prevention water meter, including a shell 1, a water inlet pipe 2, a water meter body 3, a water outlet pipe 4, a rotating shaft 5, a rotating plate 6, a push plate 7, an annular baffle 8, a water pass plate 1 9, a water pass plate 2 10, an impeller blade 11, a filter screen 12, a pressure block 13, an elastic card block 14, a pressure plate 15, and a spring 16. Embodiment 1:

[0031] The anti-backflow water meter is provided with an anti-backflow structure, which can push the push plate 7 by the rotating plate 6 to close the water plate 1 9 and the water plate 2 10 when the water flows back, specifically:

The water meter body 3 is installed inside the shell 1, and the other side surface of the shell 1 is connected to a water outlet pipe 4, and the water outlet pipe 4 is connected to an anti-backflow structure. The anti-backflow structure can make the rotating plate 6 rotate and push the water pass plate 19 to close the water outlet pipe 4 when water flows back. The anti-backflow structure includes a rotating shaft 5, the rotating shaft 5 is rotatably installed on the inner wall surface of the water outlet pipe 4, and the outer surface of the rotating shaft 5 is fixedly connected with the rotating plate 6, the inner wall surface of the water outlet pipe 4 is installed with an annular baffle 8, and the outer surface of the annular baffle 8 is symmetrically slidably penetrated by a push plate 7, one end of the push plate 7 is fixedly installed on the side surface of the water pass plate 19, and the other end of the push plate 7 corresponds to the rotating plate 6, the water pass plate 19 is slidably installed on the bottom surface of the inner wall of the shell 1, and the other side of the water pass plate 19 is correspondingly installed with a water pass plate 2 10, and the water pass plate 2 10 is fixedly installed on the inner wall surface of the shell 1, and two rotating shafts 5 are adjacently arranged;

[0033] When the water flows normally, the anti-backflow water meter Figure 2 As shown, the rotating plate 6 rotatably mounted inside the water outlet pipe 4 via the rotating shaft 5 will be impacted forward, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, the water flows out and moves to the right under the impact of the water flow through the water-passing plate 9. Figure 2 As shown in the figure, when the water flow backflow occurs, the water flow will impact the rotating plate 6, causing the rotating plate 6 to rotate to the right rear through the rotating shaft 5. The rotating plates 6 with two semicircular structures will form a circle under the impact of the water flow to block the water flow. Then the rotating plate 6 will continue to rotate to the right rear, contact one end of the push plate 7, and push the push plate 7, so that the push plate 7 slides through the annular baffle 8, as shown in the figure. Figure 3 As shown, the other end of the push plate 7 will simultaneously push the water-passing plate 19, so that the water-passing plate 19 is close to the water-passing plate 2 10. Then, after the water-passing plate 19 and the water-passing plate 2 10 are fitted together, since the vertical plates and gaps of the water-passing plate 19 and the water-passing plate 2 10 correspond to each other, the water-passing plate 19 and the water-passing plate 2 10 are closed to prevent the water from continuing to flow back. Embodiment 2:

[0036] Installing the impeller blade 11 in the middle of the filter screen 12 can reduce the adhesion of impurities to the impeller blade 11. When the filter screen 12 is replaced and installed, Figure 6 As shown, the pressing block 13 at the lower end of the filter 12 is inserted into the groove provided on the bottom surface of the inner wall of the shell 1, and then the pressing plate 15 is pressed to compress the spring 16. Then the elastic block 14 on the side surface of the pressing block 13 can retract when the pressing block 13 is inserted into the groove, and then pop out in the groove provided on the side surface of the groove and engage with the groove. The filter 12 can be quickly installed, making the filter 12 easy to replace and easier to install.

[0037] Working principle: When using the anti-backflow water meter, the anti-backflow structure can be used to rotate the plate 6 to block the flow, and the water pass plate 1 9 and the water pass plate 2 10 are closed. The filtering structure can enable the filter screen 12 to be quickly installed through the elastic block 14, thereby increasing the overall practicality.
