It should be understood that the specific examples described herein are only used to explain the utility model and not to limit the utility model.
[0025] The specific implementation of the utility model will be described in detail in combination with specific examples.
[0026] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 The utility model discloses a small-bore vortex flowmeter, which comprises a flowmeter body 1, and threaded connection rotating cylinders 2 are arranged on both sides of a pipeline in the flowmeter body 1.
[0027] In the embodiment of the utility model, please refer to Figures 1 to 6 The utility model discloses a small-bore vortex flowmeter, which comprises a flowmeter body 1, and threaded connection rotating cylinders 2 are arranged on both sides of a pipeline in the flowmeter body 1.
[0028] It should be noted that: the installation mode of clamping extrusion limiting is used to connect the device and the pipeline, when in use, the staff inserts the insertion rod 31 into the flange and clamps the clamping block 41 into the clamping groove 32, then the rotating cylinder 2 can be controlled to rotate to drive the clamping block 41 to move, so that the clamping block 41 drives the insertion rod 31 to move through the abutment with the clamping groove 32, when the arc-shaped support piece 3 at the end of the insertion rod 31 abuts against the flange at the end of the pipeline, the driving force of the rotating cylinder 2 when rotating can drive the flowmeter body 1 to move towards the side close to the connecting pipeline, so that the flange on the flowmeter body 1 can abut against the flange at the end of the connecting pipeline tightly, and the installation of the flowmeter body 1 can be realized quickly.
[0029] Compared with the installation mode of tightening the bolt nut for multiple times, the whole operation process is very convenient and fast, and the connection structure of the device is more integral, compared with the traditional bolt nut structure, the probability of nut loss can be reduced in the subsequent installation and use process, thereby the influence of the nut falling and loss in the dismounting and installation operation process on the whole installation can be reduced.
[0030] In the embodiment of the utility model, please refer to Figures 1 to 6 , the pipeline end flange of flowmeter body 1 is equipped with several evenly distributed guide rods 11 on the side close to rotating cylinder 2, the inner wall of guide rod 11 is in abutment and sliding connection with the inner wall of arc linkage strip 5, the opposite ends of two rotating cylinders 2 are both equipped with fixedly connected linkage rings 21, the outer wall of linkage ring 21 is provided with groove 22, and the inner wall of groove 22 is in abutment and sliding connection with the outer wall of arc linkage strip 5.
[0031] It should be noted that: by opening groove 22 on the outer wall of linkage ring 21, the outer wall of arc linkage strip 5 can be clamped into the inside of linkage ring 21, so that when rotating cylinder 2 drives linkage ring 21 to move spirally, linkage ring 21 can drive arc linkage strip 5 and the components on the top thereof to move synchronously through the abutment of groove 22 and the outer wall of arc linkage strip 5;
[0032] And through the setting of guide rod 11, guide rod 11 can guide arc linkage strip 5 during the movement of arc linkage strip 5, so that arc linkage strip 5 moves stably horizontally, thus arc linkage strip 5 can stably support the components on the top.
[0033] In the embodiment of the utility model, please refer to Figures 1 to 6 , arc-shaped support strip 4 is provided with guide strip 42 on the side close to arc linkage strip 5, arc linkage strip 5 is provided with guide hole 51 on the opposite part inside guide strip 42, the inner wall of guide hole 51 is in abutment and sliding connection with the outer wall of guide strip 42, the outer wall of guide strip 42 is provided with spring 43, one end of spring 43 is fixedly connected with corresponding arc-shaped support strip 4, and the other end of spring 43 is fixedly connected with corresponding arc linkage strip 5.
[0034] It should be noted that: through the setting of guide strip 42 and spring 43, during the use process, the staff presses arc-shaped support strip 4, which drives guide strip 42 to slide in the inside of the guide cylinder, so that the vertical direction of arc-shaped support strip 4 can be guided, arc-shaped support strip 4 can drive the stable vertical movement of top clamping block 41, and through the setting of spring 43, when the staff releases the pressing of arc-shaped support strip 4, spring 43 can extrude arc-shaped support strip 4 through the action force of itself, so that arc-shaped support strip 4 drives clamping block 41 to be clamped into the inside of clamping groove 32, thereby the sliding of the plug strip in the flange can be avoided.
[0035] In the embodiment of the utility model, please refer to Figures 1 to 6 The length of the rotating cylinder 2 is greater than the length of the guide strip 42.
[0036] It should be noted that: by setting the relatively long rotating cylinder 2, the end of the rotating cylinder 2 can be located outside the end of the guide strip 42, so that the staff can conveniently hold and operate the rotating cylinder 2 later.
[0037] The working principle of the small-bore vortex flowmeter provided by the utility model is as follows:
[0038] When using the device, the staff can first move the flange in the device to the opposite part of the flange at the end of the connecting pipeline, then take out the arc-shaped supporting piece 3, insert the insertion rod 31 in the arc-shaped supporting piece 3 into the flange, press the arc-shaped supporting strip 4 in the process, make the clamping block 41 on the arc-shaped supporting strip 4 move downward, so that the insertion rod 31 can be moved downward to the direction of the arc-shaped supporting strip 4, until the clamping groove 32 on the insertion strip moves to the opposite part of the clamping block 41, the pressing of the arc-shaped supporting strip 4 can be released, at this time the spring 43 can lift and reset the arc-shaped supporting strip 4 through the elastic force of itself, so that the clamping block 41 can be clamped into the clamping groove 32, by repeating the above operation, all the insertion rods 31 can be inserted into the flange.
[0039] Then the rotating cylinder 2 can be controlled to rotate, at this time the rotating rotating cylinder 2 can be moved on the flowmeter body 1 through the threaded structure, and since the end of the rotating cylinder 2 is connected between the inner groove 22 in the linkage ring 21 and the corresponding arc-shaped linkage strip 5, the arc-shaped linkage strip 5 can be stably slid on the outer wall of the guide rod 11 when the rotating cylinder 2 is spirally moved, and then the insertion rod 31 can be pulled through the abutting between the clamping block 41 and the clamping groove 32 in the top arc-shaped supporting strip 4.
[0040] With the continuous rotation of the rotating cylinder 2, when the arc-shaped supporting piece 3 at the end of the insertion rod 31 abuts against the flange at the end of the pipeline, the driving force of the rotating cylinder 2 when rotating can drive the flowmeter body 1 to move to the side close to the connecting pipeline, so that the flange on the flowmeter body 1 can abut against the flange at the end of the connecting pipeline, and then the installation of the flowmeter body 1 can be quickly realized, so that the flowmeter can stably perform monitoring operation later.
[0041] The installation mode of the device is opposite to the traditional bolt and nut connection mode, the number of rotating operations required by the device is less, the operation steps of the staff can be reduced, the whole connecting component has high integrity, and the influence of the loss of nuts in the dismounting and mounting operation process on the whole installation can be reduced.
