Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of float flowmeters, in particular to a metal tube float flowmeter with electronic indication. Background Art

[0002] The float of the metal tube float flowmeter is in the measuring tube. As the flow rate changes, the float moves up and down. At a certain position, the buoyancy of the float is balanced with the weight of the float. At this time, the circulation annular gap area between the float and the orifice plate (or cone tube) remains constant. The annular gap area is proportional to the rising height of the float, that is, the rising position of the float in the measuring tube represents the size of the flow rate. Usually, the metal tube float flowmeter drives the pointer to indicate the flow rate through magnetic coupling, and measures the float position to indicate the flow rate through the Hall sensor. The LCD screen displays the flow data. However, in actual applications, the pointer position adjustment accuracy is low, and it is difficult to accurately indicate the flow rate. In addition, there may be errors between the flow rate indicated by the pointer and the flow data displayed on the LCD screen. Therefore, a metal tube float flowmeter with electronic indication is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
