Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of alarm water meters, in particular to an anti-disassembly automatic alarm water meter. Background Art

[0002] A water meter is an instrument used to measure water flow, mainly used to record the cumulative flow of water. In order to prevent damage due to human intervention, the water meter will adopt an anti-dismantling automatic alarm function. If someone attempts to illegally dismantle the water meter or change the metering data, the alarm system will trigger an alarm to prevent water theft.

[0003] Currently, alarm water meters still have certain deficiencies. For example, the water meter does not have an alarm function when it is disassembled by non-technical personnel:

[0004] To overcome the problem of water meters not having an alarm function, a prior art Chinese patent (publication number: CN114166302A) discloses a multifunctional water meter with a disassembly alarm function. By driving a movable plate downward, when an extension rod at the bottom of the movable plate contacts a light touch switch, the power of the alarm light is turned off. At this time, when the water meter body is disassembled, the alarm will not be triggered because the power of the alarm light is turned off. Conversely, when unskilled personnel are disassembling, they are unaware of the existence of the alarm mechanism. Therefore, when disassembling, there is no contact between the extension rod and the light touch switch, so the power of the alarm light remains on, thus alerting illegal disassembly.

[0005] However, the alarm water meters currently in use still have certain shortcomings. The alarm function in the above document needs to be turned off using an external tool. If the tool is lost or forgotten, the operator will not be able to maintain or replace the water meter in time, which may affect the daily maintenance efficiency. Secondly, water leakage may occur at the connection of the water meter, resulting in waste of water resources. Therefore, the existing structure needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

When the water meter needs to be disassembled, the rotating ring 108 can be rotated through the T-ring groove 107 When the rotating ring 108 rotates, the insertion rod 109 can be driven to rotate. When the insertion rod 109 rotates to the left wall of the sliding groove 101, it can be aligned with the socket of the metal block 103. Pushing the rotating ring 108 can squeeze the T-ring groove 107. When the T-ring groove 107 is squeezed, it can drive the guide block 106 to move. When the guide block 106 moves, it can slide through the guide groove 105. At the same time, the rotating ring 108 can squeeze the slide rod 110.

When the water meter is installed, the water outlet of the moving meter body 1 is docked to the end of the connecting pipe 2. After the meter body 1 and the connecting pipe 2 are docked, the collar 202 is pushed to slide through the surface of the connecting pipe 2. When the collar 202 slides to the side of the texture on the surface of the meter body 1, it can rotate. At the same time, the collar 202 can drive the sealing air ring 204 to rotate. 4 moves to the connection between the meter body 1 and the connecting pipe 2, and the collar 202 can slide with the surface texture of the meter body 1 when rotating. When the collar 202 slides to the side of the airbag 201, it can be squeezed. When the airbag 201 is squeezed, it can be deformed. The internal gas can be transported to the inside of the sealing gas ring 204 through the through pipe 205 through the deformation. The sealing gas ring 204 can expand inside the placement groove 203 with the received gas. When the sealing gas ring 204 expands, it can seal the connection between the meter body 1 and the connecting pipe 2, thereby preventing water leakage at the connection and improving the sealing performance of the water meter when connected.

[0035] Example 3:

[0036] like Figure 6 The technical solution shown in the figure, the present invention provides the following technical solution: In order to solve the problem that the sealing mechanism may be insufficient, on the basis of the second embodiment, an extrusion mechanism is disclosed:
