Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of water level detection, in particular to a water level meter for water quantity and water level detection. Background Art

[0002] In the field of water level detection technology, float-type water level gauges are widely used for monitoring water levels in rivers, lakes, reservoirs, industrial pools, and other locations due to their simple structure, low cost, and fast response. Their core principle is that a float with a built-in permanent magnet slides up and down along a probe rod as the water level changes. An electronic transmitter senses the float's position and converts it into a water level signal, enabling real-time water level monitoring.

[0003] However, existing float-type water level gauges have obvious limitations in long-term use: on the one hand, the detection rod is immersed in water for a long time, and is prone to the attachment of impurities such as algae, mud, and microorganisms. As the impurities accumulate, the resistance of the float to sliding along the detection rod will increase, and it may even cause the float to get stuck and be unable to accurately follow the water level changes, seriously affecting the detection accuracy; on the other hand, floating objects in the water (such as branches, plastic garbage, stones, etc.) can easily directly hit the detection rod or float, which may not only cause damage to the components, but also change the force state of the float, further interfering with the detection results.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new water level meter for water quantity and water level detection to solve the above technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a water level meter for detecting water quantity and water level.

[0006] The utility model provides a water level meter for detecting water quantity and level, which includes an electronic transmitter, a detection rod fixedly mounted on the bottom of the electronic transmitter, and a floating ball with a sliding connection and a built-in permanent magnet is sleeved on the detection rod;

[0007] A cleaning component is hoisted at the bottom of the electronic transmitter, and the cleaning component includes a mounting top plate, the mounting top plate is fixedly welded to the mounting bracket at the bottom of the electronic transmitter, and two symmetrically distributed guide rods are fixedly mounted at the bottom of the mounting top plate, a mounting base is fixedly mounted at the bottom of the two guide rods, and a sliding floating ring disk is mounted between the two guide rods, a through cavity larger than the diameter of the float is opened on the floating ring disk, and cleaning parts are installed on the upper and lower disk surfaces of the floating ring disk;

[0008] The cleaning member comprises a sleeve, which is fixedly mounted on the floating ring disc via a bracket, and cleaning bristles are fixedly embedded in the sleeve, and the cleaning bristles abut against the detection rod.

[0009] Preferably, rubber buffer pads are fixedly installed on the opposite ends of the two sleeves.

[0010] Preferably, the outer wall of the mounting top plate and the mounting bottom plate are both provided with an annular groove, and a protective component is provided between the mounting top plate and the mounting bottom plate.

[0011] Preferably, the protective component includes a rotating top ring and a rotating chassis, the rotating top ring is sleeved on the annular groove opened on the mounting top plate and is rotatably connected to the annular groove, the rotating chassis is sleeved on the annular groove opened on the mounting chassis and is rotatably connected to the annular groove, and a plurality of annularly distributed and rotatably connected protective rods are installed between the rotating top ring and the rotating chassis.

[0012] Preferably, an impeller is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the rotating chassis.

[0013] Preferably, the fixing sleeve on the protective rod is provided with a rubber sleeve.

[0014] Preferably, the float ball is located in a through cavity formed in the floating ring disk.

[0015] Compared with the related art, the water level meter provided by the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. When the sleeve moves up and down along the detection rod, the cleaning bristles of the utility model can brush away the impurities attached to the detection rod. Since the upper and lower surfaces of the floating ring are both provided with cleaning members, the cleaning members in the upward or downward floating direction of the floating ring can pre-wipe and brush the detection rod, reducing the hidden danger of the float being obstructed during the movement of the float due to increasing impurities attached to the detection rod, and reducing the influence of the float on the accuracy of the water level measurement due to the inability to accurately reflect the changes in the liquid level.

[0017] 2. The protective rod arranged between the rotating top ring and the rotating chassis in the utility model can effectively reduce the impact of floating objects in the water on the detection rod and the float, and effectively protect the detection rod and the float. The rubber sleeve on the protective rod can alleviate the impact force of floating objects on the protective rod. When the water impacts the impeller and drives the impeller to rotate, it can drive the rotating top ring and the rotating chassis to rotate as a whole, thereby reducing the accumulation of floating objects on the protective rod and improving the sustainability of the protection effect.

[0025] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0026] The specific implementation of the present invention is described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0027] See also Figures 1 to 6 An embodiment of the present invention provides a water level meter for detecting water quantity and water level, which includes an electronic transmitter 1, a cleaning component 4 and a protective component 5.

[0028] In the embodiments of the present invention, please refer to Figures 1 to 6 A detection rod 2 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the electronic transmitter 1, and a floating ball 3 with a sliding connection and a built-in permanent magnet is sleeved on the detection rod 2. A cleaning component 4 is hoisted at the bottom of the electronic transmitter 1, and the cleaning component 4 includes a mounting top plate 41, which is fixedly welded to the mounting frame at the bottom of the electronic transmitter 1, and two symmetrically distributed guide rods 43 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the mounting top plate 41. A mounting base 42 is fixedly mounted at the bottom of the two guide rods 43, and a sliding floating ring plate 44 is mounted between the two guide rods 43. A through cavity larger than the diameter of the floating ball 3 is opened on the floating ring plate 44, and the floating ball 3 is located in the through cavity opened by the floating ring plate 44 to prevent the floating ring plate 44 from hindering the floating ball 3 from sliding up and down along the detection rod 2, and cleaning parts 45 are installed on the upper and lower disk surfaces of the floating ring plate 44;

[0029] The cleaning member 45 includes a sleeve 451 , which is fixedly mounted on the floating ring disk 44 via a bracket 452 , and cleaning bristles 453 are fixedly embedded in the sleeve 451 , and the cleaning bristles 453 abut against the detection rod 2 .

[0030] It should be noted that when the float ball 3 on the detection rod 2 floats on the water surface, the floating ring disc 44 also floats on the water surface. Therefore, when the float ball 3 moves up and down along the detection rod 2 as the measured liquid level rises and falls, the floating ring disc 44 also floats and moves up and down synchronously with the rise and fall of the measured liquid level. At this time, the cleaning members 45 on the upper and lower surfaces of the floating ring disc 44 can clean the detection rod 2. Specifically:

[0031] When the sleeve 451 moves up and down along the detection rod 2, the cleaning bristles 453 are able to brush the attached impurities attached to the detection rod 2. Since the upper and lower surfaces of the floating ring disk 44 are provided with cleaning members 45, the cleaning members 45 in the upward or downward direction of the floating ring disk 44 can wipe and brush the detection rod 2 in advance, reducing the hidden danger of the float 3 being obstructed during the movement due to the increasing number of impurities attached to the detection rod 2, and reducing the accuracy of the water level measurement affected by the inability of the float 3 to accurately reflect the changes in the liquid level.

[0032] In this embodiment, rubber buffer pads 454 are fixedly installed at the opposite ends of the two sleeves 451. The rubber buffer pads 454 can reduce the impact between the sleeves 451 and the mounting top plate 41 or the mounting bottom plate 42.

[0033] In the embodiments of the present invention, please refer to Figures 1 to 6 , annular grooves 4a are provided on the outer disk walls of the mounting top plate 41 and the mounting bottom plate 42, and a protective component 5 is arranged between the mounting top plate 41 and the mounting bottom plate 42, the protective component 5 includes a rotating top ring 51 and a rotating bottom plate 52, the rotating top ring 51 is sleeved on the annular groove 4a provided on the mounting top plate 41 and is rotatably connected to the annular groove 4a, the rotating bottom plate 52 is sleeved on the annular groove 4a provided on the mounting bottom plate 42 and is rotatably connected to the annular groove 4a, and an impeller 55 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the rotating bottom plate 52, and a plurality of annularly distributed and rotatably connected protective rods 53 are installed between the rotating top ring 51 and the rotating bottom plate 52, and a rubber sleeve 54 is fixedly sleeved on the protective rod 53.

[0034] It should be noted that the protective rod 53 arranged between the rotating top ring 51 and the rotating chassis 52 can effectively reduce the impact of floating objects in the water on the detection rod 2 and the float 3, effectively protecting the detection rod 2 and the float 3, and the rubber sleeve 54 on the protective rod 53 can alleviate the impact force of floating objects on the protective rod 53.

[0035] When the water impacts the impeller 55 and drives the impeller 55 to rotate, the rotating top ring 51 and the rotating base 52 can be driven to rotate as a whole, thereby reducing the accumulation of floating objects on the protective rod 53 and improving the sustainability of the protective effect.

[0036] The circuits and controls involved in the present invention are all prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0037] The above description is merely an embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made by using the contents of the description and drawings of the present invention, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
