Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is actually only illustrative and is by no means a limitation on the utility model and its application or use. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0018] Reference Figure 1-2 , an automatic calibration device for a glass rotor flowmeter using a proportional scale reading method, comprising a base 4 and a bracket 1 arranged on the upper side of the base 4, a glass rotor flowmeter being arranged on the lower side of the bracket 1, the glass rotor flowmeter comprising a float 3 and a glass tube 8, the glass tube 8 being arranged vertically, the glass tube 8 being in a cone shape with a small bottom and a large top, the float 3 being movably arranged in the glass tube 8 up and down, the bottom of the glass tube 8 being fixedly connected to the base 4, a positioning block 2 being arranged on one side of the bracket 1, a slot matching the positioning block 2 being arranged inside the side wall of the bracket 1, a magnetic strip being arranged inside the slot, a magnetic block corresponding to the magnetic strip being arranged on the positioning block 2, positioning blocks 2 being arranged at both the upper and lower ends of the slot, the positioning block 2 being fixed in the slot by the magnetic force between the magnetic block and the magnetic strip, facilitating position adjustment and realizing quick disassembly and assembly, and a positioning point being arranged on the positioning block 2;
[0019] A slide rail 5 is provided on the upper side of the base 4, an adjustment seat 6 is provided on the upper side of the slide rail 5, an industrial camera 7 is provided on the upper side of the adjustment seat 6, the industrial camera 7 is arranged corresponding to the glass rotor flowmeter, the adjustment seat 6 is slidably connected to the base 4 through the slide rail 5, and the adjustment seat 6 slides on the slide rail 5 to realize the position adjustment of the industrial camera 7.
[0020] The main measuring element of the glass rotor flowmeter is a vertically installed tapered glass tube 8 with a small bottom and a large top and a float 3 that can move up and down inside. When the fluid passes through the tapered glass tube 8 from bottom to top, a pressure difference is generated between the top and bottom of the float 3, and the float 3 rises under the action of this differential pressure; when the rising force, the buoyancy and viscous lift of the float 3 are equal to the gravity of the float 3, the float 3 is in a balanced position;
[0021] Therefore, there is a certain proportional relationship between the fluid flow rate flowing through the glass rotor flowmeter and the rising height of the float 3, that is, the flow area of the glass rotor flowmeter. The position height of the float 3 can be used as a flow measurement.
[0022] In this embodiment, two upper and lower positioning points are set on the bracket 1. The positions and distances of the two positioning points are fixed. The position below the glass rotor flowmeter is fixed. The industrial camera 7 reads the position and spacing of the positioning points, and simultaneously reads the position and spacing of the upper and lower edges of the float 3. According to the ratio of the upper and lower edges of the float 3 to the position of the positioning points, the position coordinates of the float 3 are calculated, and the coordinates are used as the coordinates of the printed scale to ensure the accurate position of the float 3.
