Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water meter technology, and specifically to a water meter. Background Technology
[0002] A water meter is an instrument for measuring water flow, mostly measuring the cumulative flow of water. It is generally divided into two categories: volumetric water meters and velocity water meters. Originating in Britain, water meters have a history of nearly two hundred years. When selecting a water meter specification, you should first estimate the size and range of the flow used under normal circumstances, and then choose the water meter specification whose commonly used flow is closest to that value as the first choice.
[0003] In the existing technology, the water flow data measured by the water meter needs to be stored so that staff can compare the water flow over a period of time to determine whether the water flow is in a normal state. Storing the water flow data requires the use of a SIM card. The SIM card can store the water flow data measured by the water meter and display the water flow information on the computer screen through an electrical connection, so that staff can view and compare it.
[0004] However, in existing water meters, the SIM card is fixed on the circuit board on the water meter during production and cannot be removed. For confidentiality reasons, some companies need to replace the SIM card that comes with the water meter to ensure that the company's data is not leaked. Utility Model Content
[0005] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the defect that the SIM card on the existing water meter cannot be removed and replaced, which cannot meet the data confidentiality needs of some enterprises.
[0006] Therefore, this utility model provides a water meter, comprising:

The mounting assembly has a first mounting cavity with a first opening on one side and a second mounting cavity with a second opening on one side, and the first mounting cavity and the second mounting cavity are in communication with each other.
[0008] The detection component includes a detection element, a fixing element, and a storage element. The detection element is disposed in the first mounting cavity and is adapted to detect the water flow rate in the water pipe. The fixing element is disposed on the detection element. The storage element is detachably disposed on the fixing element and is adapted to store water flow rate information. The fixing element is adapted to electrically connect the detection element and the storage element.
[0009] When the detection element is installed in the first mounting cavity under the action of external force, the detection element is adapted to drive the fixing element to be inserted into the second mounting cavity, so as to place the fixing element between the first mounting cavity and the second mounting cavity, and the fixing element is adapted to install the storage element in the second mounting cavity.
[0010] Optionally, in the above-mentioned water meter, the installation assembly includes a connector and an installation component that are connected to each other. The connector is provided with a connecting part, which is adapted to connect to the water pipe under the action of external force, so as to connect the connector and the water pipe.

[0011] Optionally, in the above-described water meter, the mounting assembly further includes a receiving member having a second opening and a second mounting cavity, and the receiving member is disposed within the first mounting cavity, so that the mounting member simultaneously has the first mounting cavity and the second mounting cavity.
[0012] Optionally, in the above-mentioned water meter, the receiving member has a connecting portion that connects the first mounting cavity and the second mounting cavity, so that when the detection member is installed in the first mounting cavity, the fixing member is inserted into the second mounting cavity through the connecting portion.
[0013] Optionally, in the above-mentioned water meter, when the detection element is installed in the first mounting cavity and the fixing element is partially installed in the second mounting cavity, the fixing element is adapted to pass through the connecting portion and be fixedly connected to the detection element.
[0014] Optionally, the water meter described above also includes a protective component, which is slidably disposed within the second mounting cavity. The protective component has a protective portion. When the protective component is installed within the second mounting cavity, the fixing member is adapted to be inserted into the protective portion to insert the storage component into the protective portion.
[0015] Optionally, the water meter described above further includes a sealing component, which includes a first sealing member. Under the action of an external force, the first sealing member is adapted to cover the first opening and the second opening and is detachably connected to the mounting member to simultaneously close or open the first mounting cavity and the second mounting cavity.
[0016] Optionally, in the above-mentioned water meter, the first closure is provided with a clearance portion relative to the second opening;
[0017] The enclosure assembly further includes a second enclosure member, which, under the action of an external force, is adapted to cover the clearance portion and is detachably connected to the first enclosure member and the receiving member to close or open the second mounting cavity.
[0018] Optionally, in the above-mentioned water meter, the first sealing member is provided with a plurality of first engaging parts, and the second sealing member is provided with a plurality of second engaging parts. Under the action of external force, the second engaging parts are adapted to engage with the first engaging parts to detachably connect the second sealing member and the first sealing member.
[0019] Optionally, in the above-mentioned water meter, the second closure is provided with a plurality of clearance portions, and all the clearance portions are spaced apart;
[0020] It also includes a plurality of seals, any one of which is disposed within a relief portion, so that when the second closure is connected to the receiving member, all the seals together seal the gap between the outer peripheral wall of the second closure and the inner wall of the second mounting cavity.
[0021] Optionally, in the above-mentioned water meter, the sealing assembly further includes a closure member, which is detachably connected to the first sealing member. When the first sealing member covers the first opening and is connected to the mounting member under the action of external force, the closure member is adapted to block the first mounting cavity and the second mounting cavity.
[0022] The technical solution provided by this utility model has the following advantages:
[0023] 1. The water meter provided by this utility model includes a detection component mounted on an installation assembly. The installation assembly can be connected to a water pipe under external force and has a first installation cavity and a second installation cavity that are connected together. The first installation cavity has a first opening, and the second installation cavity has a second opening. The first and second openings are located on the same side of the installation assembly. The detection component specifically includes a detection element, a fixing element, and a storage element. In this embodiment, the detection element is a detection circuit board, the fixing element is a fixing circuit board, and the storage element is a SIM card. The fixing element is mounted on the detection element, and the detection element is slidably mounted in the first installation cavity. Thus, when the detection element is installed in the first installation cavity under external force, the fixing element can be driven by the detection element to be installed in the second installation cavity. The storage element is detachably mounted on the fixing element. Thus, when the fixing element is installed in the second installation cavity under the drive of the detection element, the storage element can be installed in the second installation cavity under the drive of the fixing element. In this way, the storage element can be installed on the fixing element first, and then the detection element can be installed on the second installation cavity. The detection and storage components can be installed simultaneously within the first installation cavity, improving installation efficiency. Furthermore, when disassembly is required, the detection component can be removed from the first installation cavity or the storage component from the fixing member in the second installation cavity using external force for replacement. The fixing member electrically connects the detection and storage components. The detection component measures the water flow rate in the pipe connected to the installation assembly, while the storage component stores the detected water flow rate information. This allows staff to easily review the water flow rate over a period of time to determine if it has been within acceptable limits. In summary, by sliding the detection component within the first installation cavity and detachably mounting the storage component on the fixing member in the second installation cavity, both components can be removed. This allows companies with confidentiality requirements to replace the detection and storage components, ensuring their data is not leaked to the manufacturer. Attached Figure Description

[0037] Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of this utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0038] Example
[0039] This embodiment provides a water meter, such as Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the device includes an installation component 1 and a detection component 2. The installation component 1 is adapted to connect to a water pipe 6. The installation component 1 has a first installation cavity with a first opening on one side and a second installation cavity with a second opening on one side, and the first installation cavity and the second installation cavity are interconnected. The detection component 2 includes a detection element 21, a fixing element 22, and a storage element 23. The detection element 21 is disposed in the first installation cavity and is adapted to detect the water flow rate in the water pipe 6. The fixing element 22 is disposed on the detection element 21. The storage element 23 is detachably disposed on the fixing element 22 and is adapted to store water flow rate information. The fixing element 22 is adapted to electrically connect the detection element 21 and the storage element 23. When the detection element 21 is installed in the first installation cavity under the action of external force, the detection element 21 drives the fixing element 22 to be inserted into the second installation cavity, so that the fixing element 22 is disposed between the first installation cavity and the second installation cavity, and the fixing element 22 is adapted to install the storage element 23 in the second installation cavity.
[0040] The water meter with the above structure includes a detection component 2 mounted on the mounting assembly 1. The mounting assembly 1 can be connected to the water pipe 6 under external force. The mounting assembly 1 has a first mounting cavity and a second mounting cavity that are connected together. The first mounting cavity has a first opening, and the second mounting cavity has a second opening. The first opening and the second opening are located on the same side of the mounting assembly 1. The detection component 2 specifically includes a detection element 21, a fixing element 22, and a storage element 23. In this embodiment, the detection element 21 is a detection circuit board, the fixing element 22 is a fixing circuit board, and the storage element 23 is a SIM card. The fixing element 22 is mounted on the detection element 21, and the detection element 21 is located inside the first mounting cavity. Thus, when the detection component 21 is installed in the first mounting cavity under the action of external force, since the first mounting cavity and the second mounting cavity are connected, the fixing component 22 can be driven by the detection component 21 to be installed in the second mounting cavity. The storage component 23 is specifically detachably set on the fixing component 22. Thus, when the fixing component 22 is installed in the second mounting cavity under the action of the detection component 21, the storage component 23 can also be installed in the second mounting cavity under the action of the fixing component 22. In this way, by first installing the storage component 23 on the fixing component 22 and then installing the detection component 21 in the first mounting cavity, the synchronous installation of the detection component 21 and the storage component 23 can be completed, which is beneficial to improving the installation efficiency of the detection component 21 and the storage component 23.
[0041] In addition, when it is necessary to disassemble the detection component 21 or the storage component 23, the detection component 21 can be removed from the first mounting cavity or the storage component 23 can be removed from the fixing component 22 in the second mounting cavity by external force and replaced. At the same time, when the fixing component 22 is installed in the second mounting cavity, it is located between the first mounting cavity and the second mounting cavity, and it can electrically connect the detection component 21 and the storage component 23. The detection component 21 can detect the water flow in the water pipe 6 connected to the mounting assembly 1, and the storage component 23 can store the water flow information detected by the detection component 21. Thus, the water flow information in the water pipe 6 detected by the detection component 21 can be stored through the storage component 23, which makes it convenient for the staff to check the water flow in the water pipe 6 over a period of time to determine whether the water flow in the water pipe 6 has been in a normal state over a period of time.
[0042] In summary, by installing the detection component 21 in the first mounting cavity and detachably installing the storage component 23 on the fixing component 22 in the second mounting cavity, both the detection component 21 and the storage component 23 can be removed. This allows companies with confidentiality requirements to replace the detection component 21 and the storage component 23 to ensure that their data is not leaked to the manufacturer.
[0043] Specifically, the detection element 21 and the fixing element 22 are welded together. Specifically, the detection element 21 has a connecting hole, and one end of the fixing element 22 can pass through the connecting hole. The detection element 21 and the fixing element 22 are then connected together by welding. The detection element 21 and the fixing element 22 are arranged perpendicularly, so that the detection element 21 and the fixing element 22 can be connected together. When the detection element 21 is installed in the first mounting cavity and the fixing element 22 is installed in the second mounting cavity, the detection element 21 and the fixing element 22 can be directly electrically connected, thereby avoiding the need to use electrical connection components such as cables to electrically connect the detection element 21 and the fixing element 22.
[0044] By avoiding the use of electrical connection components such as cables to electrically connect the detection component 21 and the fixing component 22, some space can be left between the detection component 21 and the fixing component 22. This space can be used to install components such as wireless devices, which helps to improve the space utilization rate within the installation cavity.
[0045] The water meter provided in this embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the installation assembly 1 includes a connector 11 and an installation component 12 that are connected to each other. The connector 11 is provided with a connecting part 111, which is adapted to be connected to the water pipe 6 under the action of external force, so as to connect the connector 11 and the water pipe 6. The first installation cavity and the second installation cavity are both opened on the installation component 12.
[0046] The water meter with the above structure includes a connecting member 11 and a mounting member 12 in the installation assembly 1. In this embodiment, the connecting member 11 is a connecting pipe, and the mounting member 12 is a mounting housing. The connecting member 11 and the mounting member 12 are interconnected, and the connecting member 11 is provided with a connecting part 111, which is a connecting threaded hole in this embodiment. The mounting member 12 has a first mounting cavity and a second mounting cavity, that is, the detection member 21 and the storage member 23 are both installed on the mounting member 12. Thus, when connecting the installation assembly 1 and the water pipe 6, the connecting part 111 on the connecting member 11 can be connected to the water pipe 6 by external force, so that the detection member 2 installed in the mounting member 12 can detect the water flow rate of the water pipe 6 and store the water flow rate information.
[0047] The water meter provided in this embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the mounting assembly 1 also includes a receiving member 13, which has a second opening and a second mounting cavity, and the receiving member 13 is disposed within the first mounting cavity so that the mounting member 12 simultaneously has the first mounting cavity and the second mounting cavity.
[0048] The water meter with the above structure also includes a receiving member 13 by setting the installation component 1. In this embodiment, the receiving member 13 is a receiving shell. The receiving member 13 is specifically set in the first installation cavity and is connected to the side wall of the installation member 12, thereby fixing it in the first installation cavity. In addition, the second installation cavity and the second opening are both opened on the receiving member 13, so that when the receiving member 13 is installed in the first installation cavity, the installation member 12 can simultaneously have the first installation cavity and the second installation cavity.
[0049] The water meter provided in this embodiment, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the receiving member 13 has a connecting part 131, which connects the first mounting cavity and the second mounting cavity, so that when the detection member 21 is installed in the first mounting cavity, the fixing member 22 is inserted into the second mounting cavity through the connecting part 131.
[0050] The water meter with the above structure, through the connecting part 131 opened on the receiving member 13, the connecting part 131 is a connecting elongated groove in this embodiment, which specifically extends from one end of the receiving member 13 to the other end of the receiving member and is set relative to the detection member 21, so that when the receiving member 13 is installed in the first mounting cavity, the first mounting cavity and the second mounting cavity can be connected through the connecting part 131. Then, when the detection member 21 is installed in the first mounting cavity under the action of external force, the fixing member 22 set on the detection member 21 can be inserted into the second mounting cavity through the connecting part 131, so as to realize the synchronous installation of the detection member 21 and the storage member 23 detachably set on the fixing member 22. At the same time, the fixing member 22 can electrically connect the detection member 21 and the storage member 23, so that the storage member 23 can store the water flow information detected by the detection member 21.
[0051] The water meter provided in this embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the inner sidewall of the mounting component 12 is provided with corresponding first sliding part and second sliding part, and the two ends of the detection component 21 are respectively adapted to connect with the first sliding part and the second sliding part.
[0052] The water meter with the above structure has a first sliding part and a second sliding part set on the inner side wall of the mounting part 12. In this embodiment, the first sliding part and the second sliding part are respectively the first sliding groove and the second sliding groove. The first sliding part and the second sliding part are arranged correspondingly to each other. When the detection element 21 is installed in the first mounting cavity, both ends of the detection element 21 can be connected to the first sliding part and the second sliding part respectively. Under the action of external force, the detection element 21 slides into the first mounting cavity between the first sliding part and the second sliding part. In this way, the installation of the detection element 21 can be completed.
[0053] Specifically, the first sliding part is provided on the inner wall of one side of the mounting member 12, and the second sliding part is provided on the inner wall of the other side of the mounting member. In this way, when the detection member 21 is installed in the first mounting cavity through the first sliding part and the second sliding part, the fixing member 22 fixed on the detection member 21 can be inserted into the second mounting cavity through the connecting part 131.
[0054] The water meter provided in this embodiment, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, it also includes a protective member 4, which is slidably disposed in the second mounting cavity. The protective member 4 has a protective part. When the protective member 4 is installed in the second mounting cavity, the fixing member 22 is adapted to be inserted into the protective part so as to insert the storage member 23 into the protective part.
[0055] The water meter with the above structure is slidably installed in the second mounting cavity by a protective member 4. In this embodiment, the protective member 4 is a protective shell. The protective member 4 has a protective part, which is a protective groove in this embodiment. When the fixing member 22 is driven to be installed in the second mounting cavity by the detection member 21, the protective member 4 can avoid the fixing member 22 and be installed in the second mounting cavity through the protective part. When the protective member 4 is installed in the second mounting cavity, the fixing member 22 can be inserted into the protective part, thereby inserting the storage member 23 installed on the fixing member 22 into the protective part. Thus, the body of the protective member 4 protects the fixing member 22 and the storage member 23.
[0056] The water meter provided in this embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it also includes a sealing component 3, which includes a first sealing member 31. Under the action of external force, the first sealing member 31 is adapted to cover the first opening and the second opening and is detachably connected to the mounting member 12 to simultaneously close or open the first mounting cavity and the second mounting cavity.
[0057] The water meter with the above structure has a detachable sealing component 3 on the mounting component 1. The sealing component 3 specifically includes a first sealing member 31, which is a first sealing plate in this embodiment. The first sealing member 31 can cover the first opening and the second opening on the mounting component 12 under the action of external force and is detachably connected to the mounting component 12, so that the first sealing member 31 can simultaneously close or open the first opening of the mounting component 12 and the second opening of the receiving component 13.
[0058] The water meter provided in this embodiment, such as Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, a clearance portion 312 is provided on the first closure member 31 at a position opposite to the second opening; the closure assembly 3 also includes a second closure member 32. Under the action of external force, the second closure member 32 is adapted to cover the clearance portion 312 and is detachably connected to the first closure member 31 and the receiving member 13 to close or open the second mounting cavity.
[0059] The water meter with the above structure includes a clearance portion 312 on the first sealing member 31 and a second sealing member 32 on the sealing assembly 3. In this embodiment, the clearance portion 312 is a clearance hole on the first sealing member 31, and the second sealing member 32 is a second sealing plate. The clearance portion 312 is opened on the first sealing member 31 corresponding to the second opening, so that when the first sealing member 31 covers the first opening, the second opening can communicate with the outside. This allows the protective member 4 to be installed in the second mounting cavity through the clearance portion 312 after the detection member 21 and the fixing member 22 are installed in place. The second sealing member 32 can cover the second opening and is detachably connected to the first sealing member 31, so that the second sealing member 32 can close or open the second mounting cavity.
[0060] The water meter provided in this embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the first closure 31 is provided with a plurality of first engaging portions 311, and the second closure 32 is provided with a plurality of second engaging portions 321. Under the action of external force, the second engaging portions 321 are adapted to engage with the first engaging portions 311 to detachably connect the second closure 32 and the first closure 31.
[0061] The water meter with the above structure has several first engaging portions 311 provided on the first sealing member 31 and several second engaging portions 321 provided on the second sealing member 32. In this embodiment, the first engaging portions 311 are first engaging blocks and the second engaging portions 321 are second engaging blocks. There is a certain gap between the first engaging portions 311 and the first sealing member 31. So when connecting the first sealing member 31 and the second sealing member 32, the second sealing member 32 can rotate under the action of external force to screw the second engaging portions 321 into the gap between the first engaging portions 311 and the second sealing member 32, thereby connecting the first sealing member 31 and the second sealing member 32. When disassembling the second sealing member 32, it is only necessary to rotate the second sealing member 32 in the opposite direction to disengage the second engaging portions 321 from the gap, thereby removing the second sealing member 32 from the first sealing member 31.
[0062] The water meter provided in this embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, the second sealing member 32 has a plurality of clearance portions, which are spaced apart from each other; it also includes a plurality of sealing members 5, each of which is disposed in a clearance portion, so that when the second sealing member 32 is connected to the receiving member 13, all the sealing members 5 together seal the gap between the outer peripheral wall surface of the second sealing member 32 and the inner wall surface of the second mounting cavity.
[0063] The water meter with the above structure, through several clearance portions formed on the second sealing member 32 and sealing members 5 disposed in the clearance portions, wherein the clearance portions are clearance grooves in this embodiment and the sealing members 5 are sealing rings in this embodiment, can first install the sealing members 5 in the clearance portions under the action of external force when installing the second sealing member 32. Then, after the second sealing member 32 is connected to the first sealing member 31, the second sealing member 32 and the inner wall surface of the receiving member 13 can be sealed by the sealing members 5, so as to ensure that the external medium will not flow into the second installation cavity through the gap between the second sealing member 32 and the inner wall surface of the receiving member 13, thereby ensuring the service life of the storage member 23.
[0064] The water meter provided in this embodiment, such as Figure 5 As shown, the sealing component 3 also includes a closure member 33, which is detachably connected to the first sealing member 31. When the first sealing member 31 covers the first opening and is connected to the mounting member 12 under the action of external force, the closure member 33 is suitable for blocking the first mounting cavity and the second mounting cavity.
[0065] The water meter with the above structure also includes a closure member 33 by setting the sealing component 3. In this embodiment, the closure member 33 is a closure plate. The closure member 33 can be detachably connected to the first sealing member 31. When the first sealing member 31 covers the first opening and is connected to the mounting member 12 under the action of external force, the closure member 33 will be positioned between the first sealing member 31 and the detection member 21. This is because the sealing component 3 is transparent. If the closure member 33 is not installed on the sealing component 3, the outside world can see the contents of the first mounting cavity and the second mounting cavity through the sealing component 3. By setting the closure member 33 on the sealing component 3, the closure member 33 can cover the contents of the first mounting cavity and the second mounting cavity, which is conducive to keeping the contents of the first mounting cavity and the second mounting cavity confidential.
[0066] Specifically, the closure 33 is provided with several slots, and the first closure 31 is provided with several blocks corresponding to the slots on the closure 33. Thus, when connecting the closure 33 and the first closure 31, the closure 33 and the first closure 31 can be connected together by engaging the slots on the closure 33 with the blocks on the first closure 31. When it is necessary to remove the closure 33 from the first closure 31, one less block corresponding to the slot can be provided on the first closure 31, so that one of the slots on the closure 33 will not engage with the first closure 31. In this way, the closure 33 can be removed from the first closure 31 by using external force to pry open the slot that is not engaged with the block.
[0067] In addition, the first closure 31 is also provided with several slots, and the inner wall of the mounting member 12 is provided with several blocks. These blocks are specifically arranged in two layers. When the closure 33 is connected to the mounting member 12, the slots on the closure 33 engage with one layer of blocks on the inner wall of the mounting member 12, thus connecting the closure 33 and the mounting member 12 together. When the first closure 31 is connected to the mounting member 12, the slots on the first closure 31 can engage with the other side of the blocks on the inner wall of the mounting member 12, thus connecting the first closure 31 and the mounting member 12 together.
[0068] The water meter provided by this utility model includes a detection component 2 mounted on an installation assembly 1. The installation assembly 1 can be connected to a water pipe 6 under external force. The installation assembly 1 has a first installation cavity and a second installation cavity that are interconnected. The first installation cavity has a first opening, and the second installation cavity has a second opening. The first and second openings are located on the same side of the installation assembly 1. The detection component 2 specifically includes a detection element 21, a fixing element 22, and a storage element 23. In this embodiment, the detection element 21 is a detection circuit board, the fixing element 22 is a fixing circuit board, and the storage element 23 is an S... The IM card includes a fixing member 22 mounted on a detection member 21, which is slidably mounted within a first mounting cavity. When the detection member 21 is installed in the first mounting cavity under external force, the fixing member 22 is driven by the detection member 21 to be installed in a second mounting cavity. The storage member 23 is detachably mounted on the fixing member 22. Thus, when the fixing member 22 is installed in the second mounting cavity under the drive of the detection member 21, the storage member 23 is also installed in the second mounting cavity under the drive of the fixing member 22. Therefore, the storage member 23 can be installed on the fixing member 22 first, and then the detection member 21 can be installed in the first mounting cavity. The simultaneous installation of the detection element 21 and the storage element 23 within the cavity improves installation efficiency. Furthermore, when it's necessary to disassemble the detection element 21 or the storage element 23, external force can be used to remove the detection element 21 from the first installation cavity or the storage element 23 from the fixing member 22 in the second installation cavity for replacement. Simultaneously, the fixing member 22 electrically connects the detection element 21 and the storage element 23. The detection element 21 detects the water flow rate in the water pipe 6 connected to the installation assembly 1, and the storage element 23 stores the water flow rate information detected by the detection element 21. This allows the detection element 21... The detected water flow information in the water pipe 6 can be stored through the storage component 23, which facilitates the staff to check the water flow in the water pipe 6 over a period of time to determine whether the water flow in the water pipe 6 has been in a normal state over a period of time. In summary, by sliding the detection component 21 in the first installation cavity and detachably installing the storage component 23 on the fixing component 22 in the second installation cavity, both the detection component 21 and the storage component 23 can be removed. This allows companies with confidentiality requirements to replace the detection component 21 and the storage component 23 to ensure that the company's data is not leaked to the manufacturer.
