DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0025] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely explain the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. It should be noted that the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the utility model can be combined with each other without conflict, and the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments.
[0026] See also Figure 1-6The present embodiment is described as a fixing device suitable for a variety of water meter outer diameter image recognition devices, which includes a main body part 4, an annular part 3, a connecting part 2 and a fixing part 1. The main body part 4, the annular part 3, the connecting part 2 and the fixing part 1 are connected in sequence from top to bottom. The fixing part 1 includes two fixing arms 11. The two fixing arms 11 are relatively and slidably arranged on both sides of the bottom of the connecting part 2. The bottom of the main body part 4 is rotatably connected to the connecting part 2 through the annular part 3. An image recognition device placement groove 41 is provided in the main body part 4. In this embodiment, a hollow area is provided on the bottom end surface of the image recognition device placement groove 41. The image recognition device placement groove 41 is used to install and place the water meter image recognition device. The camera of the water meter image recognition device is placed downward in the image recognition device placement groove 41, and the camera can face the surface of the water meter through the hollow area.
[0027] In this embodiment, a pair of relative and slidably adjustable fixing arms 11 are provided so that the fixing device can adapt to water meters with different outer diameters and specifications. The water meter image recognition device can be fixed to water meters of different specifications without replacing fixing seats of different specifications, thereby reducing the installation difficulty of the staff and improving the installation efficiency.
[0028] The water meter image recognition device in the main body part 4 of the present embodiment is designed to rotate between the annular part 3 and the connecting part 2, so that the angle of the image recognition device can be adjusted according to actual usage. The split plug-in design between the annular part 3 and the main body part 4 allows the user to temporarily remove the main body part 4 to observe the water meter reading, thereby improving convenience and solving the problem that after installation, the water meter and the recognition device are completely integrated through the fixing seat, which is inconvenient for manual reading and user observation.
[0029] In this embodiment, a plurality of first screw holes 15 are evenly arranged on the fixed arm 11. After the fixed arm 11 is installed and connected to the water meter, screws are used to fasten the fixed arm 11 to the water meter through the first screw holes 15, so that the device will not shake between the water meter after being fixed.
[0030] In this embodiment, both ends of the bottom end surface of the connecting component 2 are provided with slide rails 21, and both ends of the top of the fixed arm 11 are provided with connecting arms 12. The top of the connecting arm 12 is provided with a slider 13 that slides with the slide rail 21. The two connecting arms 12 of the fixed arm 11 are respectively connected to the two slide rails 21 on the bottom end surface of the connecting component 2 through the slider 13. The slide rail 21 is used to provide guidance and limiting effects for the sliding of the two fixed arms 11. The slider 13 is used for connecting the fixed arm 11 with the slide rail 21. The connecting arm 12 is used to connect the fixed arm 11 and the slider 13.
[0031] In this embodiment, both ends of the fixed arm 11 and the top of the connecting arm 12 are provided with tie holes 14, and the multiple tie holes 14 of the two fixed arms 11 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence. After the fixed arm 11 is installed and connected to the water meter, the corresponding tie holes 14 between the two fixed arms 11 are passed through the tie and tightened, so that the fixing device has stronger stability after installation.
[0032] In this embodiment, a plurality of second screw holes 23 are provided on the side surfaces at both ends of the connecting component 2, and the second screw holes 23 are connected to the slide rail 21. When the fixed arm 11 is installed and connected to the water meter, screws are used to press against one side of the slider 13 through the second screw holes 23 and fix the slider 13 in the slide rail 21 to prevent the slider 13 from sliding and shaking in the slide rail 21, and to fix the fixed arm 11 and the connecting component 2, thereby ensuring the stability of the device.
[0033] In this embodiment, a first annular protrusion 22 is provided at the top of the connecting component 2, and the first annular protrusion 22 is rotatably sleeved on the outer side of the lower half of the annular component 3. A plurality of third screw holes 24 are evenly arranged on the side wall of the first annular protrusion 22. After the main body component 4 equipped with the image recognition device is adjusted to a suitable angle, screws are tightened through the third screw holes 24 and then pressed against the outer wall of the annular component 3, so that the connecting component 2 and the annular component 3 are fixed and do not rotate, thereby ensuring the stability of the image recognition device and improving the success rate of recognition.
[0034] In this embodiment, a second annular protrusion 42 is provided at the bottom of the main body part 4, and a strip protrusion 43 is provided on the outer wall of the second annular protrusion 42. A groove 31 which is plugged into and matched with the strip protrusion 43 is opened on one side of the annular part 3. The annular part 3 is plugged and sleeved on the outer side of the second annular protrusion 42. When the main body part 4 and the annular part 3 are assembled, the plug-in fit between the strip protrusion 43 and the groove 31 prevents the main body part 4 and the annular part 3 from rotating relative to each other.
[0035] In this embodiment, an upper cover plate 5 is provided on the top of the main body part 4, and a plurality of buckles 51 are provided at both ends of the bottom of the upper cover plate 5. Buckle grooves 44 matching with the buckles 51 are provided on both sides of the top of the main body part 4. The upper cover plate 5 is connected to the main body part 4 through the buckles 51 and the buckle grooves 44. The upper cover plate 5 is used to protect the image recognition device.
[0036] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows:
[0037] First, install the two fixed arms 11 and the connecting component 2, and assemble the connecting component 2 with the water meter by slidingly adjusting the two fixed arms 11. After the fixed arms 11 clamp the water meter, use a cable tie to fix it through the cable tie hole 14, and then use a screw to tighten it through the first screw hole 15 to fasten the fixed arm 11 to the water meter, and then use a screw to tighten it through the second screw hole 23 to ensure the fixation between the fixed arm 11 and the connecting component 2, place the camera of the water meter image recognition device downward in the image recognition device placement groove 41 of the main component 4, and then install the cover plate 5, and connect and assemble the main component 4 equipped with the water meter image recognition device with the connecting component 2 through the annular component 3. After the connection is completed, rotate the main component 4 through the annular component 3 to adjust the recognition angle of the water meter image recognition device so that the recognition device can face the water meter surface. After adjusting to the appropriate angle, use a screw to tighten it through the third screw hole 24 to ensure the fixation between the connecting component 2 and the annular component 3, and complete the assembly of the device.
[0038] After the device is assembled, the user can remove the main part 4 by himself to observe the water meter reading through the split plug-in design between the main part 4 and the annular part 3.
