[0026] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0027] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "length", "width", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating the orientation or position relationship, are based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.
[0028] In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present utility model, the meaning of "plurality" is two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.
[0029] In the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "install", "connect", "connect", "fix" and the like should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0030] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0031] See also Figures 1 to 5 As shown, an anti-reversal movement assembly includes, from top to bottom, a counter assembly 1, an anti-reversal ring 2, an impeller assembly 3, an impeller box 4 and a filter 5, wherein:
[0032] The anti-reversal ring 2 is arranged at the bottom of the counter assembly 1, and includes a ring body 21, a rotating shaft 22, a caliper 23 and a spring 24. Specifically, as Figure 3 As shown, the ring body 21 is annular, with a through hole in the center, the shaft 22 is fixed on the ring body 21, one end of the caliper 23 is rotatably connected to the shaft 22, the other end of the caliper 23 is provided with a limit hook on the side close to the through hole, and the side away from the through hole is connected to one end of the spring 24, and the other end of the spring 24 is fixed on the ring body 21; correspondingly, as Figure 2 The impeller assembly 3 is provided with a ratchet 33 , which passes through the through hole of the ring body 21 and contacts the caliper 23 .
[0033] Through the above technical solution, such as Figure 5When the water flows forward, the impeller drives the ratchet 33 to rotate clockwise. At this time, the ratchet 33 and the caliper 23 will not restrict each other, and the water meter can operate normally; when the water flows backward, the impeller wants to drive the ratchet 33 to rotate counterclockwise. At this time, due to the tooth design of the ratchet 33 and the spring 24, the caliper 23 will tightly fit the ratchet 33. Therefore, the caliper 23 will prevent the ratchet 33 from rotating counterclockwise, thereby preventing the impeller from reversing, thereby realizing the anti-backflow function and avoiding affecting the water meter reading and electronic reading and affecting the measurement of water volume.
[0034] It is worth mentioning that, since the top of the impeller assembly 3 needs to extend into the counter assembly 1 to drive the counter to rotate, the ratchet 33 needs to be arranged in the middle and upper part of the impeller assembly 3. The formation of the ratchet 33 is somewhat difficult. Figure 4 The impeller assembly 3 is divided into an upper impeller 31 and a lower impeller 32. The bottom of the upper impeller 31 is inserted into the top of the lower impeller 32 and is limited by the limiting groove. The ratchet 33 is arranged on the top of the lower impeller 32. By separately producing the upper impeller 31 and the lower impeller 32, the formation of the ratchet 33 is facilitated, the difficulty of parts production is reduced, and the production efficiency is improved.
[0035] It is understandable that if Figure 2 , the caliper 23 and the spring 24 are arranged at the bottom of the ring body 21 , so as to maintain the flatness of the top of the anti-reversal ring 2 , thereby facilitating its installation at the bottom of the counter assembly 1 .
[0036] Furthermore, at least two positioning holes are formed on the ring body 21 , and a corresponding number of positioning pins are provided at the bottom of the counter assembly 1 . The anti-reversal ring 2 is fixed to the bottom of the counter assembly 1 through the cooperation of the positioning holes and the positioning pins.
[0037] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the technical scope of the present invention. Therefore, any minor modifications, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention are still within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
