A brush is provided on one side of the cleaning rod 23 close to the installation frame 13. The cleaning rod 23 can clean the impurities attached to the filter screen through the brush, thereby reducing to a certain extent the situation where impurities are attached and accumulated on the filter for a long time, resulting in a decrease in the water flow rate through the filter screen, and enabling the filter screen to filter the water flow more smoothly. A maintenance loading and unloading device is provided on the top of the base 2.

[0022] Further, a transmission rod 8 extending outside the water delivery pipe 6 is rotatably connected to the interior of the support plate 7. A first bevel gear 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the transmission rod 8. A second bevel gear 10 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft 11 close to the first bevel gear 9. The surface of the second bevel gear 10 is meshed with the surface of the first bevel gear 9.

[0023] Further, a handle 4 is fixedly connected to the top end of the transmission rod 8. The transmission rod 8 can be rotated more smoothly through the handle 4.

[0024] The maintenance loading and unloading device includes a positioning rod 21. The bottom of the positioning rod 21 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 2.

[0027] The staff rotates the rotating rod 5 to wrap the pull rope 18 around the rotating rod 5, compresses the spring 17, and enables the pull rope 18 to drive the movable frame 19 to move, and causes the movable frame 19 to slide out of the fixing groove 20, so that the fixation of the positioning rod 21 and the mounting plate 3 is released. The staff moves the mounting plate 3 upward and opens the maintenance groove 15, so that the staff can more conveniently disassemble and clean the mounting frame 13, and at the same time makes the later maintenance of the mounting frame 13 more convenient, and allows the staff to use the device more conveniently, so that the filter net inside the mounting frame 13 can more smoothly block and filter impurities in the water flow.

[0028] Working principle: For this type of IoT smart water meter that is easy to maintain, water first flows into the meter body 1 from the inside of the water pipe 6. The staff can make the transmission rod 8 rotate more smoothly through the handle 4. The transmission rod 8 drives the cleaning rod 23 to rotate the meter body 1 through the meshing connection of the first bevel gear 9 and the second bevel gear 10, so that the cleaning rod 23 can clean the impurities attached to the filter screen through the brush, thereby reducing the long-term adhesion and accumulation of impurities on the filter to a certain extent, reducing the speed of water flowing through the filter screen, and making the filter screen filter the water flow more smoothly. The staff rotates the rotating rod 5, so that the pull rope 18 is wrapped around the rotating rod 5, and the spring 17 is compressed, so that the pull rope 18 can drive the mobile frame 19 to move, and the mobile frame 19 slides out of the fixed groove 20, so that the positioning rod 21 and the mounting plate 3 are released. The staff moves the mounting plate 3 upward and realizes the opening of the maintenance groove 15, so that the staff can more conveniently disassemble and clean the mounting frame 13, and at the same time make the later maintenance of the mounting frame 13 more convenient.
