[0026] See also Figure 1-4 , an embodiment provided by the utility model:

[0027] An intelligent remote water meter, comprising:

[0028] A water meter body 1 and a dust cover 2, a symmetrically distributed rotating seat 4 is fixedly installed on one side of the water meter body 1, a connecting frame 3 is fixedly installed on one side of the dust cover 2, a through hole 8 is opened below the front of the connecting frame 3, a limiting groove 12 is opened on the top of the inner wall of the through hole 8, and a symmetrically distributed limiting block 11 is slidably installed on the limiting groove 12;

[0029] A rotating shaft 5 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the two limit blocks 11, and the rotating shaft 5 is slidably connected to the through hole 8. A first spring 10 is fixedly connected between the opposite ends of the two rotating shafts 5. A mounting hole 9 is opened on the rotating seat 4, and the rotating shaft 5 is movably plugged into the mounting hole 9. An unfolding mechanism is provided on one side of the water meter body 1 above the rotating seat 4, and a locking mechanism is provided on one side of the top of the water meter body 1.

[0030] The unfolding mechanism includes an arc-shaped cylinder 7, and the arc-shaped cylinder 7 is fixedly installed on one side of the water meter body 1 above the rotating seat 4. The inner wall of the arc-shaped cylinder 7 is provided with symmetrically distributed positioning grooves 14, and positioning blocks 13 are slidably installed on the positioning grooves 14. A push rod 6 is fixedly installed between the two positioning blocks 13, and the push rod 6 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the arc-shaped cylinder 7. A second spring 15 is fixedly connected between one end of the push rod 6 located inside the arc-shaped cylinder 7 and the inner wall of the arc-shaped cylinder 7. One end of the push rod 6 located outside the arc-shaped cylinder 7 abuts against the connecting frame 3, so that the dust cover 2 can be automatically unfolded, thereby improving the convenience of people opening the dust cover 2.

[0031] In one embodiment, the locking mechanism includes a fixed block 19, and the fixed block 19 is fixedly installed on one side of the top of the water meter body 1, a slide groove 20 is opened on the top of the fixed block 19, a cross bar 17 is fixedly installed inside the slide groove 20, a slider 21 is sleeved on the outer wall of the cross bar 17, and the slider 21 is slidably connected to the slide groove 20, a third spring 18 is sleeved on one side of the slider 21 on the outer wall of the cross bar 17, a clamping plate 16 is fixedly installed on the top of the slider 21, a clamping groove 22 is opened on the other side of the dust cover 2, and the clamping groove 22 is clamped with the clamping plate 16 to ensure the stability of the dust cover 2 in the closed state.

[0032] In one of the preferred embodiments, one side of the card plate 16 is inclined, and the card plate 16 is adapted to the card slot 22. A sealing gasket is bonded to the bottom of the card plate 16, and the card plate 16 is slidably connected to the top of the fixed block 19 through the sealing gasket at its bottom. Through the setting of the sealing gasket, a sealing effect is achieved on the top opening of the slide slot 20 to prevent external dust from entering the interior of the slide slot 20, thereby improving the service life of the internal mechanical structure of the slide slot 20.

[0033] In one embodiment, a sliding hole matched with the cross bar 17 is opened on one side of the slider 21, and the slider 21 is slidably connected to the cross bar 17 through the sliding hole opened on one side.

[0034] In one of the preferred embodiments, a plurality of longitudinal anti-slip strips are bonded to the top of the card board 16 to increase the friction between the user's hand and the card board 16 and facilitate the change of the position of the card board 16.

[0035] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: when checking the data on the water meter body 1, the dust cover 2 needs to be opened first. At this time, the second spring 15 located inside the arc tube 7 is in a compressed state. The top of the column clamping plate 16 is manually pressed to drive the clamping plate 16 to move. The movement of the clamping plate 16 drives the slider 21 to slide on the outer wall of the cross bar 17 and squeezes the third spring 18. As the clamping plate 16 moves, the left side of the clamping plate 16 will be separated from the inside of the clamping groove 22. At this time, the dust cover 2 will lose the locking effect of the locking mechanism. The extension of the second spring 15 will cause the push rod 6 to slide to the outside of the arc tube 7. The movement of the push rod 6 will drive the connecting frame 3 to rotate, and the connecting frame 3 will rotate. The rotation of the bracket 3 drives the dust cover 2 to move, so that after the locking mechanism loses the locking limit of the dust cover 2, the dust cover 2 will automatically unfold under the action of the unfolding mechanism. After completing the data viewing, the dust cover 2 is directly covered on the top of the water meter body 1. During the covering process, the dust cover 2 will contact the inclined surface on one side of the card plate 16, which will push the card plate 16 to slide to the right until the dust cover 2 contacts the top of the water meter body 1. At this time, the card plate 16 will automatically snap into the inside of the card slot 22 under the elastic action of the third spring 18, and lock the dust cover 2, thereby completing the stable closure of the dust cover 2. Therefore, when opening and closing the dust cover 2, it is only necessary to move the locking mechanism The limiting effect of the dust cover 2 is released, and the dust cover 2 will automatically open with the cooperation of the unfolding mechanism, and the operation method of the locking mechanism is simple, which is convenient for the user to quickly open the dust cover 2. When closing the dust cover 2, the dust cover 2 is directly closed manually on the top of the water meter body 1. Through the setting of the inclined surface on one side of the clamping plate 16, the locking mechanism will automatically clamp and lock the dust cover 2. The operation is convenient, which improves the convenience of people's use. When the dust cover 2 is damaged and needs to be replaced, the outer ends of the two rotating shafts 5 are directly pushed from the outside of the rotating seat 4 to disengage the two rotating shafts 5 from the inside of the mounting holes 9 on the rotating seat 4, so that the connecting frame 3 can be removed from the rotating seat 4. After the connecting frame 3 is removed, the dust cover 2 will lose the connection effect with the water meter body 1, so that the dust cover 2 is removed together. After replacing the new dust cover 2 and the connecting frame 3, directly press the two rotating shafts 5, and the two rotating shafts 5 will squeeze the first spring 10, so that the rotating shaft 5 is placed between the two rotating seats 4, and the rotating shaft 5 is aligned with the mounting hole 9. The rotating shaft 5 will be directly inserted into the inside of the mounting hole 9 under the elastic action of the first spring 10 to complete the installation of the dust cover 2 and the connecting frame 3. The detachable structure of the dust cover 2 is simple and easy to operate, which is convenient for quick assembly and disassembly of the dust cover 2. When the dust cover 2 is damaged, it can be easily repaired or replaced, and it is highly practical.

[0036] The above is only an embodiment of the utility model, and the common sense such as the known specific structure and characteristics in the scheme is not described too much here. For those skilled in the art, it is obvious that the utility model is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments, and the utility model can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic features of the utility model. Therefore, no matter from which point of view, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive. The scope of the utility model is limited by the attached claims rather than the above description, and it is intended to include all changes within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims in the utility model. Any figure mark in the claims should not be regarded as limiting the claims involved.
