[0002] The IoT water meter is an intelligent water meter technology that has multiple functions such as remote monitoring, data collection, intelligent billing, water use analysis, water leakage detection and remote valve control. It uses advanced sensors and communication technologies to achieve real-time monitoring and precise management of water resources, bringing many advantages and functions to the water industry.

[0003] The existing Internet of Things water meters are connected to the pipes through threaded parts set at both ends during installation. In order for the threaded parts to fully fit with the inner wall of the pipe and ensure sealing during connection, it is generally necessary to use props such as wrenches for auxiliary operations, so as to facilitate the complete rotation and engagement of the threaded parts. The installed threaded parts are tight and stable, and subsequent dismantling also requires props such as wrenches for auxiliary dismantling. There are operational limitations, which affect the convenience of operation of the staff and are very inconvenient. Utility Model Content

[0021] In order to facilitate understanding of the present application, the present application will be described more fully below with reference to the relevant drawings. Embodiments of the present application are provided in the drawings. However, the present application can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, the purpose of providing these embodiments is to make the disclosure of the present application more thorough and comprehensive.

[0022] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application belongs. The terms used herein in the specification of this application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this application.

[0023] See also Figure 1-5 The utility model discloses an IoT water meter that is easy to disassemble, comprising an IoT water meter 1 and pipe joints 2 arranged at both ends of the IoT water meter 1, a rotatably installed connecting piece is arranged on the outside of the pipe joint 2, a movable groove 33 is arranged on the outside of the connecting piece, and a rotationally adjustable control rod 5 is arranged in the movable groove 33, and the control rod 5 is rotated vertically on the connecting piece to be subjected to force rotation, or overlapped on the outside of the connecting piece for storage.

[0024] See also Figure 2 An annular slide groove 21 is provided on the outer side of the pipe joint 2 away from the IoT water meter 1 , and an annular first installation groove 22 is provided on the inner side of the end of the pipe joint 2 away from the IoT water meter 1 .

[0025] See also Figure 5The connecting piece is composed of a sleeve 3 and a threaded joint 7. The sleeve 3 is installed on the end of the outer side of the pipe joint 2 away from the IoT water meter 1. The sleeve 3 is in a regular hexagon. The regular hexagonal setting of the sleeve 3 facilitates the opening of the movable groove 33 at equal distances on the outer side of the sleeve 3 without affecting the structure of the sleeve 3, so that when the control rod 5 on the outer side of the sleeve 3 is not obvious, it can still be used in a regular hexagon with props such as a wrench. The threaded joint 7 is arranged at the end of the sleeve 3 away from the IoT water meter 1. The end of the inner wall of the sleeve 3 away from the IoT water meter 1 is fitted with the ends of the two pipe joints 2 away from each other. A second installation groove 32 is provided on the inner side of the inner wall of the sleeve 3 away from the IoT water meter 1. The second installation groove 32 overlaps with the first installation groove 22 and The second mounting groove 32 and the first mounting groove 22 are of the same size, and cooperate with each other to form a complete annular groove for installing the sealing ring 4. During the movement and rotation of the sleeve 3 on the outside of the pipe joint 2, the sealing ring 4 ensures the sealing of the sleeve 3 and the pipe joint 2. A slider 31 installed in the annular groove 21 is provided on the inner side of the sleeve 3. The slider 31 can cooperate with the annular groove 21 on the outside of the pipe joint 2 for sliding connection, thereby reducing the friction generated by the rotation of the sleeve 3 on the outside of the pipe joint 2 and facilitating its rotation operation. A sealing ring 4 is installed between the second mounting groove 32 and the first mounting groove 22. The movable groove 33 is opened on the outside of the sleeve 3, close to the end of the IoT water meter 1, and is distributed in a circular shape with equal distances around the center of the sleeve 3.

[0026] See also Figure 3 One end of the control rod 5 is installed between the two sides of the inner wall of the movable groove 33 away from the end of the IoT water meter 1, the control rod 5 is in contact with the inner wall of the movable groove 33, and the other end of the control rod 5 extends to the outside of the movable groove 33. The control rod 5 can be rotated to overlap or be perpendicular to the sleeve 3. When the control rod 5 and the sleeve 3 are perpendicular, the staff can use the control rod 5 to form a labor-saving lever structure to manipulate the sleeve 3 and the threaded joint 7 for installation or removal without the assistance of props such as wrenches. When the control rod 5 overlaps with the sleeve 3, the control rod 5 is stored in the movable groove 33 without occupying the space. Multiple spaces affect the normal installation of the Internet of Things water meter 1. At the same time, the sleeve 3 can be maintained as a regular hexagon, which is convenient for use with other props. Blocks 6 that fit the surface of the control rod 5 are arranged on both sides of the inner wall of the movable groove 33 away from the center of the sleeve 3. The surface of the block 6 is an arc surface, which facilitates the movement of the control rod 5 outside the block 6. When the control rod 5 rotates and is perpendicular to the sleeve 3, it needs to be squeezed out from between the two blocks 6. During the process of the control rod 5 rotating and overlapping with the movable groove 33, the control rod 5 can be squeezed and stuck between the two blocks 6, so that the block 6 restricts the control rod 5 in the movable groove 33 for fixation.
