Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cold water meters, in particular to a cold water meter which is convenient for replacing a filter screen. Background Art

[0002] A water meter is an instrument for measuring water flow, most of which measure the cumulative flow of water. It is generally divided into two categories: a volumetric water meter and a velocity water meter. It originated in the United Kingdom and has a history of nearly two hundred years. When selecting the specifications of a water meter, the size and range of the flow rate used under normal circumstances should be estimated first, and then the water meter with the specification whose commonly used flow rate is closest to the value should be selected as the first choice. Water meters can be divided into cold water meters and hot water meters according to the medium temperature. When using existing cold water meters, in order to prevent a large amount of impurities such as mud and sand in the water from entering the cold water meter and causing damage to the water meter, it is necessary to install a corrosion-resistant filter in front of the cold water meter to protect the cold water meter. Since the filter will be blocked after long-term use, it is necessary to replace the filter regularly. The existing replacement method is mostly to remove the water meter and manually take out the filter in the connection end for replacement. The operation is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the filter cannot be replaced without affecting the use of the water meter. Therefore, in view of the above problems, a cold water meter that is easy to replace the filter is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0019] Example 1

[0020] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a cold water meter for facilitating replacement of a filter screen comprises a cold water meter 1, wherein the left end of the cold water meter 1 is connected with a fixed sleeve 2, the left bottom end of the fixed sleeve 2 is connected with a connecting pipe 3, the inner side of the fixed sleeve 2 is rotatably connected with a fixed shaft 4 penetrating the fixed sleeve 2, the outer side of the fixed shaft 4 is fixedly connected with a turntable 5 rotatably connected to the fixed sleeve 2, the inner side of the turntable 5 is slidably connected with a filter screen 6, the outer right end of the fixed shaft 4 is rotatably connected with a fixed box 11 fixedly connected to the fixed sleeve 2, the top end of the fixed box 11 is fixedly connected with an electric push rod 12, the bottom end of the electric push rod 12 is fixedly connected with a bracket 13 slidably connected to the fixed box 11, the inner side of the bracket 13 is fixedly connected with a rack 14, the outer side of the rack 14 is meshingly connected with a gear 15 fixedly connected to the fixed shaft 4, and the right top end of the fixed sleeve 2 is fixedly connected with a controller 24.

[0021] Example 2

[0022] like Figure 2 As shown, in order to solve the problem of being inconvenient to determine when to automatically replace the bottom filter 6, the right end of the filter 6 contacts with a slider 7 that is slidably connected to the turntable 5, the right end of the slider 7 is fixedly connected to a first spring 8, the other end of the first spring 8 is fixedly connected to a pressure block 9 that contacts the turntable 5, and the outer side of the pressure block 9 is fixedly connected to a pressure sensor 10 that contacts the turntable 5. Because the more serious the blockage of the filter 6 is, the greater the water resistance it encounters, the greater the degree to which the filter 6 pushes the slider 7 to compress the first spring 8, and the greater the force of the pressure block 9 to press the pressure sensor 10. Therefore, when the pressure value sensed by the pressure sensor 10 exceeds the set range, it is convenient to determine when to automatically replace the bottom filter 6.

[0023] Example 3

[0024] like Figure 2-3 As shown, in order to solve the problem of being inconvenient to remind the user to take out the replaced filter 6 for cleaning, the upper and lower ends of the inner side of the fixed box 11 are fixedly connected with control switches 16, and the control switch 16 at the top is in contact with the bracket 13, and the top of the fixed sleeve 2 is fixedly connected with a micro alarm 17. After replacing the filter 6, the bracket 13 triggers the control switch 16 at one end of the inner side of the fixed box 11, and further activates the micro alarm 17, which makes it convenient to remind the user to take out the replaced filter 6 for cleaning.

[0025] Example 4

[0026] like Figure 1-2 As shown, in order to solve the problem that it is inconvenient to take out the replaced filter 6 for cleaning, the top left side of the fixed sleeve 2 is rotatably connected to a baffle 18 through a rotating shaft, and the top outer side of the baffle 18 is spirally connected to a bolt 19 that penetrates the baffle 18, and the bolt 19 is spirally connected to the fixed sleeve 2, and the bottom end of the controller 24 is provided with a fixed cover 20 connected to the fixed sleeve 2, and the inner side of the fixed cover 20 is fixedly connected to a second spring 21, and the other end of the second spring 21 is fixedly connected to a slide plate 22 that is slidably connected to the fixed cover 20, and the left end of the slide plate 22 is fixedly connected to a push block 23 that penetrates the fixed cover 20, and the screw connection with the fixed sleeve 20 is disengaged by rotating the bolt 19, and then the baffle 18 is opened, and then the slide plate 22 is pushed by the second spring 21 in a compressed state, and the push block 23 further pushes the used filter 6 that is rotated to the top, which is convenient for pushing out the replaced filter 6 for cleaning.

[0027] Example 5

[0028] like Figure 2As shown, in order to solve the problem that the push block 23 for pushing the filter 6 will affect the rotation of the turntable 5, the push block 23 is arranged in a cone shape, and the push block 23 contacts the filter 6 at the top. By setting the push block 23 in a cone shape, and then making the push block 23 slide with the turntable 5 when the turntable 5 rotates, and at the same time making the push block 23 push the slide plate 22 to compress the second spring 21, the push block 23 for pushing the filter 6 is avoided. The influence of the rotation of the turntable 5 on the push block 23 is avoided.

[0029] In this embodiment, all electrical appliances in the device are external power supplies. When using the device, the sensing range of the pressure sensor 10 is first set through the controller 24. After setting, the device can be used. Because the more serious the blockage of the filter screen 6 is, the greater the water resistance is, the greater the degree to which the filter screen 6 pushes the slider 7 to compress the first spring 8, and the greater the force of the pressure block 9 to press the pressure sensor 10. Therefore, when the pressure value sensed by the pressure sensor 10 exceeds the set range to determine that the bottom filter screen 6 is blocked, the controller 24 automatically controls the electric push rod 12 to extend so that the bracket 13 drives the rack 14 to engage the gear 15, and further causes the fixed shaft 4 to drive the filter screen 6 in the turntable 5 to rotate 180 degrees, which can be done without affecting the use of the device. The filter 6 is automatically replaced under the condition that the filter 6 is replaced. When the filter 6 is replaced, the bracket 13 will trigger the control switch 16 at the bottom to start the micro alarm 17. After hearing the alarm issued by the micro alarm 17, the alarm issued by the micro alarm 17 is firstly released through the controller 24, and then the bolt 19 is turned to disengage the spiral connection with the fixing sleeve 20 to open the baffle 18, and then the slide plate 22 is pushed by the second spring 21 in the compressed state, and the push block 23 in the shape of a cone further pushes the used filter 6 turned to the top, so that the used filter 6 can be pushed out of the device, thereby facilitating the removal of the used filter 6 for cleaning. After cleaning, the cleaned filter 6 can be reset and recycled.
