The ends of the first cone tube 10 and the second cone tube 11 close to each other are respectively inserted into the water inlet and the water outlet of the water meter 8, and then connected to the water meter 8. The ends of the first cone tube 10 and the second cone tube 11 away from each other are connected to two detection boxes 2. After the water in the detection box 2 with a high water level enters the water meter 8 through the first cone tube 10 and the second cone tube 11, it flows into the detection box 2 with a lower water level on the other side. The water volume change in the detection box 2 is observed by a liquid level meter. By measuring the unit time of the detection box 2 The water volume change in the water meter 8 is compared with the flow rate of the water meter 8, so as to detect and calibrate the water meter 8. A bracket 12 is installed on one side of the support plate 9. The bracket 12 is L-shaped. A movable frame 13 is slidably installed on the bracket 12. The movable frame 13 is connected to the second cone tube 11. An electric push rod 14 is installed on the bracket 12. The output shaft of the electric push rod 14 is connected to the movable frame 13. After the electric push rod 14 is started, the movable frame 13 is pushed to slide on the bracket 12, thereby making the second cone tube 11 close to or away from the first cone tube 10. When in use, the electric push rod 14 is started to shorten its output shaft. Then, the movable frame 13 is driven to move on the top of the bracket 12, so that the second cone tube 11 is away from the first cone tube 10, and the water inlet and the water outlet at both ends of the water meter 8 are aligned with the first cone tube 10 and the second cone tube 11, and the electric push rod 14 is started to move the second cone tube 11 toward the first cone tube 10, until the first cone tube 10 and the second cone tube 11 are inserted into the water inlet and the water outlet at both ends of the water meter 8, and then the water flow detection and verification of the water meter 8 can be started.

The water in the detection box 2 is pumped through the water pump 6 and the transparent water pipe 4, and then discharged into the first tapered pipe 10 through the rigid pipe 5, so that the water enters the water meter 8. The transparent water pipe 4 is arranged in a vertical "U" shape, which is convenient for observing whether there are bubbles in the transparent water pipe 4, and makes the bubbles in the transparent water pipe 4 stay at the highest point of the transparent water pipe 4, preventing the bubbles from entering the water meter 8 and affecting the detection accuracy of the water meter 8.
[0039] By setting the "U"-shaped transparent water pipe 4, the rigid pipe 5 and the water pump 6, it is convenient to discharge the water in the detection box 2 on one side into the water meter 8, convenient for observing whether there are bubbles in the transparent water pipe 4, and making the bubbles in the transparent water pipe 4 stay at the highest point, preventing the bubbles from entering the water meter 8 and affecting the detection accuracy of the water meter 8.

[0043] Working principle: Corresponding valves are installed on each pipeline, which will not be elaborated here. When in use, start the electric push rod 14 to shorten its output shaft, and then drive the moving frame 13 to move on the top of the bracket 12, so that the second tapered pipe 11 moves away from the first tapered pipe 10. Align the water inlet and outlet at both ends of the water meter 8 with the first tapered pipe 10 and the second tapered pipe 11. Start the electric push rod 14 to make the second tapered pipe 11 move towards the first tapered pipe 10 until the first tapered pipe 10 and the second tapered pipe 11 are inserted into the water inlet and outlet at both ends of the water meter 8. After the water in the detection box 2 with a higher water level enters the water meter 8 through the first tapered pipe 10 and the second tapered pipe 11, it flows into the detection box 2 on the other side with a lower water level. Observe the change of the water volume in the detection box 2 through the liquid level gauge. Compare the change of the water volume in the detection box 2 per unit time with the flow rate displayed by the water meter 8, so as to detect and calibrate the water meter 8. After the detection is completed, start the electric push rod 14 to make the second tapered pipe 11 move away from the first tapered pipe 10, so as to facilitate the removal of the water meter 8.
