Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of instruments and meters, and more specifically, particularly relates to an ultrasonic level meter which is easy to repair. Background Art
[0002] Ultrasonic level meter is a digital level meter controlled by a microprocessor. During measurement, ultrasonic pulses are emitted by a sensor (transducer). After being reflected by the liquid surface, the sound waves are received by the same sensor or ultrasonic receiver, and converted into electrical signals through piezoelectric crystals or magnetostrictive devices. The distance from the sensor to the surface of the measured liquid is calculated by the time between the emission and reception of the sound waves. Existing ultrasonic level meters are mainly divided into ultrasonic manhole level meters, pressure manhole level meters and radar manhole level meters.
[0003] At present, ultrasonic manhole level meters are mainly used in municipal pipe networks to monitor the water level changes of related facilities such as sewers, rainwater wells, and sewage wells. Through real-time measurement data, it can help municipal departments to effectively arrange and deploy flood control and waterlogging prevention work. In the prior art, when the ultrasonic manhole level meter is installed on the inner wall of the sewer, in order to ensure the accuracy of the ultrasonic manhole level meter, it is necessary to manually use a tape measure to locate it during installation, and then use mechanical equipment to drill holes on the inner wall of the sewer, so that the ultrasonic manhole level meter can be fixed and installed with fasteners. The installation process is dangerous and labor-intensive, and when the ultrasonic manhole level meter needs to be repaired in the later stage, the disassembly process is relatively cumbersome. Therefore, in view of this, the existing structure and defects are studied and improved, and an ultrasonic level meter that is easy to repair is provided, in order to achieve a more practical purpose.
