Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of water meters, and in particular relates to a water meter suitable for a narrow installation space. Background Art
[0002] A water meter is a measuring instrument that measures the amount of water flowing through a facility. It is often used to record the amount of tap water consumed in homes, businesses or industrial locations. It is usually installed in a water supply pipe and calculates the volume of water by measuring the amount of water flowing through the pipe. In some cases, especially in residential buildings, water meters are often installed in a small space, which can reduce the area they occupy. There are often certain inconveniences in installing water meters in a small installation space, and often a large number of water meters need to be installed in a small installation space to achieve unified management. Common water meters need to be rotated to achieve screw-on docking between threads. The water meter itself has a certain volume, and the rotation of the water meter in a small space may be inconvenient.
[0003] Secondly, there are certain problems with the subsequent maintenance and replacement of water meters in small installation spaces. The inability to conveniently disassemble and assemble water meters will cause certain problems in the subsequent maintenance and replacement, which in turn affects the normal water use needs of residents.
