[0003] For the existing wedge-shaped flowmeters, due to the solid particles and dirty impurities contained in the measured medium precipitating, it is easy to cause erosion to the inner wall of the measuring pipe, and long-term friction is likely to cause wear of the measuring pipe wall. In addition, the solid particles and dirty impurities contained in the measured medium are likely to accumulate upstream of the throttling element, resulting in local blockage of the measuring pipe and ultimately affecting the measurement accuracy.

[0016] Preferably, a boss is provided in the cavity of the semi-elliptical wedge throttling element, and the threaded hole is provided on the boss.
[0017] The working principle of the present utility model:
[0018] 1. When the measured medium flows through the minimum cross-section of the gap between the semi-elliptical wedge throttling element and the asymmetric fish-tail streamline throttling element, due to the semi-elliptical structure and streamline structure of the throttling element, the permanent pressure loss in the measuring tube is greatly reduced. When the measured medium passes through the minimum cross-section, due to the throttling of the throttling element at the upper and lower pipe walls of the measuring tube, the flow velocity at the center of the measuring tube is the largest, and the flow velocity gradient of the measured medium gradually decreases from the center of the measuring tube to the pipe wall of the measuring tube, reducing the erosion of the measured medium on the downstream pipe wall of the measuring tube and reducing the wear of the measured medium on the pipe wall of the measuring tube.
[0019] 2. The asymmetric fish-tail streamline throttle element includes an asymmetric fish-tail shape and a streamline structure. After the measured medium flows through the highest point of this throttle element, the solid particles and dirty impurities contained in it precipitate on the upper surface of the asymmetric fish-tail streamline throttle element, and slowly flow through the bottom of the measuring tube along with the measured medium at its downstream end, slowing down its flow velocity, reducing the kinetic energy of the solid particles and dirty impurities, reducing the wear on the bottom of the measuring tube, extending the service life of the flow detection device, and improving the use effect of the flow detection device.
[0020] 3. The semi-elliptical wedge throttle element is symmetric with the asymmetric fish-tail streamline throttle element about the axis of the measuring tube. The short-axis vertex of the lower semi-ellipse of the semi-elliptical wedge throttle element and the highest point of the asymmetric fish-tail streamline throttle element are on the same diameter line of the measuring tube, ensuring that this is the minimum cross-sectional area where the measured medium flows through. According to the different specifications of the measuring tube and the size of the flow rate of the measured medium, the height of the semi-elliptical wedge throttle element can be appropriately adjusted to maximize the kinetic energy and flow rate when the measured medium flows through the minimum cross-sectional area, reduce the static pressure energy, make the differential pressure value between the positive pressure tapping tube and the negative pressure tapping tube reach the maximum, ensure the stability of the flow detection device, and improve the detection accuracy.
[0021] 4. The semi-elliptical wedge throttle element is formed by one-time pressing of a steel plate and has a cavity structure inside, which reduces the weight of the entire flow detection device and the cost. The lower part of the semi-elliptical wedge throttle element is designed as a semi-ellipse, which is smoothly transitioned with the two hypotenuses of the semi-elliptical wedge throttle element, reducing the resistance when the medium flows through this throttle element and reducing the pressure loss.
[0022] 5. The asymmetric fish-tail streamline throttle element is symmetric with the semi-elliptical wedge throttle element about the axis of the measuring tube. The upstream of the asymmetric fish-tail streamline throttle element is in the form of a streamline structure, and the downstream is in the shape of a fish-tail. The transition angle relative to the lower pipe wall of the measuring tube is below 10°. The distance between the highest point of the asymmetric fish-tail streamline throttle element and the bottom of the measuring tube depends on the diameter of the measuring tube, and the maximum distance should not exceed 30 mm. This can prevent the solid particles and dirty impurities contained in the measured medium from accumulating upstream of this throttle element and affecting the measurement accuracy.
[0023] 6. The surfaces of the semi-elliptical wedge throttle element and the asymmetric fish-tail streamline throttle element are evenly sprayed with STL alloy to improve the scouring ability of the medium flowing at high speed on the surfaces of the semi-elliptical wedge throttle element and the asymmetric fish-tail streamline throttle element, and enhance the surface wear resistance of the throttle element.
