Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of switches, and in particular relates to a water flow switch. Background Art
[0002] The water flow switch is a sensor component used for water circulation control, water inlet and outlet control, water heating control, water pump switch control, solenoid valve on-off control or water outlet power-off and power-on control of electric water heaters, solar water heaters, air conditioners and other water systems. When a certain flow rate is reached, the water flow is converted into a switch-type electrical signal. It is mainly composed of a magnetic core, a reset spring, a forged copper or polycarbonate shell and a sensor. The magnetic core is made of neodymium iron boron permanent magnet material, and the sensor magnetic control switch is an imported medium-power component. The water inlet and outlet interfaces are both standard pipe threads.
[0003] There are three main installation methods for water flow switches: vertical installation, horizontal installation, and inverted installation. When installed vertically, it should be installed on a pipe section that flows from bottom to top; when installed at the upper end of a horizontal pipe (that is, horizontal installation), it should be ensured that the medium is full in the pipe to prevent the probe from only contacting the air but not the medium; when installed at the lower end of a horizontal pipe (that is, inverted installation), it should be ensured that there is no sediment at the bottom of the pipe to prevent the probe from being covered by the sediment and unable to fully contact the probe. However, no matter which installation method is used, the switch body needs to be stably connected to the pipe, and the diameters of the pipes are mostly different. The current water flow switch can only be used on water flow pipes with a single diameter, and the scope of application is relatively limited. In view of this, a water flow switch of the utility model is specially proposed to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention
[0004] In order to solve the technical problem that the above-mentioned water flow switch can only be applied to water flow pipes with a single diameter, the basic concept of the technical solution adopted by the utility model is:
[0005] A water flow switch comprises a connecting flange and a switch body, wherein a water inlet end is fixedly provided at the right end of the switch body, a first connecting end is fixedly provided at the end of the water inlet end, an extension end is slidably provided inside the water inlet end and the first connecting end, a movable groove is provided on the top outer wall of the extension end, a clamping block is slidably connected to the inner wall of the movable groove, a micro spring is connected to the bottom inner wall of the movable groove, the top of the micro spring is fixedly connected to the bottom outer wall of the clamping block, a first clamping slot and a second clamping slot of the same caliber are provided on the top of the water inlet end, and the clamping block is adapted to the first clamping slot and the second clamping slot.
[0006] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a second connecting end is fixedly provided at the end of the extending end.
[0007] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the outer walls of the first connecting end and the second connecting end are both provided with external threads.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the utility model, a connecting groove is provided on the inner wall of the opposite end of the water inlet end and the first connecting end, and a connecting block is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the extension end. The connecting block is slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting groove, and the connecting groove is located on one side of the first clamping groove.
[0009] As a preferred implementation manner of the present utility model, the switch body is fixedly connected to the connecting flange.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the utility model, a water outlet is fixedly provided at the left end of the switch body, and the structure inside the water outlet is the same as the structure inside the water inlet.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0012] The utility model has a first connecting end fixedly provided at the end positions of the water inlet end and the water outlet end of the switch body, and the outer walls of the first connecting ends are provided with external threads, so that the switch body can be stably connected to a water flow pipe with a larger diameter. When the switch body needs to be firmly connected to the water flow pipe with a larger diameter, the clamping block is pressed to move downward so that the clamping block is disengaged from the first clamping groove, and then the extension end and the second connecting end are pushed to move toward the water inlet end and the water outlet end. When the end position of the extension end moves to the second clamping groove, the clamping block can be pushed into the second clamping groove under the elastic force of the micro spring, and the extension end can be clamped in the water inlet end and the water outlet end, and then the first connecting end can be screwed and firmly connected to the water flow pipe.
[0013] The utility model has an extension end slidably provided on the inner walls of the water inlet end and the water outlet end through a connecting groove and a connecting block, and the end position of the extension end is fixedly provided with a second connecting end, and the outer wall of the second connecting end is provided with an external thread, so that the switch body can be stably connected to a water flow pipe with a smaller diameter. When the switch body needs to be firmly connected to the water flow pipe with a smaller diameter, the clamping block is pressed to move downward so that the clamping block is disengaged from the second clamping groove, and then the extension end and the second connecting end are pulled to move toward the outside of the water inlet end and the water outlet end. When the end position of the extension end moves to the first clamping groove, the clamping block can be pushed into the first clamping groove under the elastic force of the micro spring to achieve the positioning of the extension end, and then the second connecting end can be screwed and firmly connected to the water flow pipe.
