DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0035] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0036] An easy-to-use electric meter includes a base plate 10, an electric meter 12 is fixed on the front of the base plate 10, a protective box 11 covering the electric meter 12 is arranged on the front of the base plate 10, and a button 13 is arranged on the front of the electric meter 12. The electric meter 12 and the button 13 are the insurance buttons provided by the existing electric meter machine, and the base plate 10 and the protective box 11 are the protective boxes provided by the existing electric meters. Please refer to the prior art for details and will not be repeated here.

[0037] In the examples of this application, please refer to Figure 1 and 2 A fixed shell 20 is fixed on the front of the electric meter 12, and a push block 30 aligned with the button 13 is slidably arranged inside the fixed shell 20. Normally, the button 13 can be pressed by pressing the push block 30, which is simple to operate and does not affect the operation. At the same time, a through hole is opened on the front of the protective box 11, and the through hole is adapted to the fixed shell 20, so that the user can press the push block 30 here;

[0038] For further examples, see Figure 1 , 2 And 3, a reset structure 40 is set at the bottom of the fixed shell 20, and a fixed rod 50 is fixed to the bottom of the reset structure 40. The fixed rod 50 passes through the fixed shell 20 and extends to the bottom of the fixed shell 20. A movable rod 60 is slidably set inside the fixed rod 50. The fixed rod 50 extends from the bottom of the movable rod 60 and is transmission-connected to the reset structure 40 and the push block 30, wherein the reset structure 40 is used for resetting the movable rod 60.

[0039] Specifically, the reset structure 40 includes a connecting shell 41 fixed between the fixed rod 50 and the fixed shell 20, the outer part of the movable rod 60 is fixedly sleeved with a limit plate 42, the limit plate 42 is slidably arranged inside the connecting shell 41, and the outer part of the movable rod 60 is sleeved with a reset spring 43 located on the side of the limit plate 42 close to the fixed shell 20 and abutting against the limit plate 42. When the movable rod 60 moves upward, it drives the limit plate 42 to compress the reset spring 43, and then when the movable rod 60 is released, the restoring force of the reset spring 43 can make the movable rod 60 and the limit plate 42 return to the initial position;

[0040] Furthermore, a movable groove 61 is provided at the connection between the movable rod 60 and the push block 30, and two guide grooves 62 are provided on the inner wall of the movable groove 61. The movable rod 60 is fixedly connected to a movable block 63 which is slidably arranged inside the movable groove 61. Both sides of the movable block 63 are fixedly connected to guide blocks 64 located inside the guide groove 62. Figure 3 As shown, a slope is provided on the side of the movable block 63 away from the movable rod 60, and the slope is against the movable groove 61. The angle of the slope is the same as the angle of the guide block 64, and the angle is preferably 45 degrees. In order to keep the movable block 63 sliding smoothly, the contact surface between the guide block 64 and the guide groove 62 and the contact surface between the slope and the movable groove 61 are both smooth.

[0041] During use, when the electric meter 12 is installed at a higher position, although it is difficult for the user to touch the button 13 on the electric meter 12, the user can touch the movable rod 60 and the fixed rod 50. The user only needs to press the movable rod 60 to drive the movable block 63 to move, thereby driving the pressing block 30 to slide under the action of the inclined surface, the guide groove 62 and the guide block 64, and finally the button 13 is pressed synchronously by the pressing block 30 to complete the operation, and then the movable rod 60 is released, and the reset spring 43 in the above process drives the movable rod 60 to return to the initial position, and the synchronous movable block 63 and the pressing block 30 can also be moved back to the initial position. The operation is simple and easy to control, and there is no need to climb high, which increases the convenience and safety of operation.

[0042] It should be noted that, in this article, relational terms such as first and second, etc. are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "include", "comprise" or any other variants thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. In the absence of further restrictions, the elements defined by the sentence "comprise a ..." do not exclude the existence of other identical elements in the process, method, article or device including the elements.

[0043] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
