Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of water meter testing technology, specifically relating to an intelligent water meter testing auxiliary device. Background Technology

[0002] A water meter is an instrument that measures water flow. Most of them measure the cumulative flow of water. They are generally divided into two categories: volumetric water meters and velocity water meters. When selecting a water meter, you should first estimate the flow rate and range that you will be using under normal circumstances.

[0003] In the prior art, Chinese utility model patent CN219977541U discloses "a water meter waterproof testing device," which includes a testing platform. The upper surface of the testing platform is equipped with a testing device for storing pure water, an infusion device for testing whether the water meter is waterproof, and an auxiliary testing device for re-checking whether the testing device contains a testing solution. The infusion device is activated to deliver the testing solution through the water meter. When the testing solution passes through the water meter, if the pure water in the testing device changes color, the water meter's waterproofness is substandard. If the pure water in the testing device does not change color, the auxiliary testing device is activated to further test the water in the testing device to ensure that the pure water in the testing device does not contain the testing solution, thereby achieving the testing of the water meter's waterproofness during operation.

[0004] While existing water meter testing devices can determine the water meter's waterproofness by detecting color changes in pure water within the device, they are inconvenient for installation and testing. Although the fixing mechanism allows adjustment of the distance between clamps one and two using bolts to secure the meter, this method is cumbersome in practice, requiring specialized tools for installation and removal. Furthermore, the limited operating space on the fixing device causes considerable inconvenience for operators. More seriously, when the fixing bolts are inserted into the testing tank, they are easily corroded and soaked by water, accelerating corrosion and damage, further affecting the device's stability and lifespan.

[0005] To address the aforementioned issues, this application proposes an auxiliary device for detecting smart water meters. Utility Model Content

A positioning plate is also installed on the fixing plate below the connecting rod. The positioning plate has a positioning groove for the arc-shaped clamping plate to be inserted. A spring is sleeved on the outer wall of the connecting rod. The spring is located between the fixing plate and the connecting plate. A sliding rod is also fixed to one side of the connecting plate. One end of the sliding rod passes through the fixing plate.

[0010] Two symmetrically distributed movable clamping plates are fixed on the connecting plate, and each of the two movable clamping plates is also provided with a V-shaped groove for clamping the outer wall of the water meter body.

[0011] Preferably, cavities are provided on both of the fixed clamps and both of the movable clamps.

[0012] Preferably, a pair of support rods are fixed inside each of the four cavities.

[0013] Preferably, the interior of each of the four V-grooves is glued with a silicone pad.

[0014] Preferably, the water tank is provided with a viewing window.

[0015] Preferably, both the arc-shaped card plate and the positioning plate are made of metal.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0027] Please see Figures 1-5 The present invention provides the following technical solution: a smart water meter detection auxiliary device, including a base plate 1, a water tank 2 and a support plate 4 installed on the top of the base plate 1, a cylinder 5 fixed on the top of the support plate 4, the output end of the cylinder 5 passing through the support plate 4 and fixed with an installation frame 6, and a detachable water meter body 7 installed on the installation frame 6.

[0028] Mounting frame 6 is fixed with mounting plate 8, and mounting plate 8 is mounted with two symmetrically distributed fixing plates 9, and both fixing plates 9 are provided with V-grooves 10.

[0029] A fixing plate 11 is installed on the support plate 4 at a position away from the mounting plate 8. A connecting rod 12 passes through the fixing plate 11. A movable clamping plate 14 is rotatably connected to one end of the connecting rod 12 near the fixing clamping plate 9. An arc-shaped clamping plate 15 is fixed on the outer wall. A positioning plate 17 is also installed on the fixing plate 11 below the connecting rod 12. The positioning plate 17 has a positioning groove 18 for the arc-shaped clamping plate 15 to be inserted. A spring 16 is sleeved on the outer wall of the connecting rod 12. The spring 16 is located between the fixing plate 11 and the connecting plate 13. A sliding rod 21 is also fixed on one side of the connecting plate 13. One end of the sliding rod 21 passes through the fixing plate 11.

[0030] Two symmetrically distributed movable clamping plates 14 are fixed on the connecting plate 13. Both movable clamping plates 14 are also provided with V-shaped grooves 10 for clamping the outer wall of the water meter body 7. During use, the connecting rod 12 is pulled first to move the two movable clamping plates 14 away from the fixed clamping plate 9, and the spring 16 is squeezed by the connecting plate 13. At this time, the water meter body 7 can be placed on the mounting frame 6, and the outer wall of the water meter body 7 initially contacts the V-shaped grooves 10 on the fixed clamping plate 9, providing initial positioning for subsequent clamping operations.

[0031] Subsequently, the operator releases the connecting rod 12, and the spring 16 pushes the connecting plate 13, causing the slide rod 21 to slide in the through hole of the fixed plate 11, which drives the connecting rod 12 and the movable clamping plate 14 on it to move towards the water meter body 7. As the movable clamping plate 14 approaches, the V-shaped groove 10 on it gradually contacts the outer wall of the water meter body 7 and generates clamping force. When the movable clamping plate 14 moves to a certain position, the arc-shaped clamping plate 15 moves just above the positioning plate 17. Then, the connecting rod 12 is rotated so that the arc-shaped clamping plate 15 is inserted into the positioning groove 18 on the positioning plate 17. At this time, the entire clamping mechanism reaches a stable state, and the water meter body 7 is firmly clamped between the two fixed clamping plates 9 and the two movable clamping plates 14. The cylinder 5 can then be activated to perform water meter testing. The activation of the cylinder 5 drives the installation frame 6 and the water meter body 7 to move up and down as a whole, so that the water meter body 7 can smoothly enter the water tank 2 for soaking or rinsing testing, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the test results.

[0032] This clamping method is simple to operate, requires no special tools, and provides uniform clamping force, effectively protecting the water meter body 7 from damage. At the same time, since the movable clamping plate 14 is connected to the fixed plate 11 through the spring 16 and the slide rod 21, when it is necessary to disassemble the water meter body 7, simply rotate the connecting rod 12 to disengage the arc-shaped clamping plate 15 from the positioning groove 18, and gently pull the connecting plate 13 outward. The movable clamping plate 14 will then move away from the water meter body 7, thus easily achieving the disassembly of the water meter body 7.

[0033] Specifically, by Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, cavities 19 are provided on both fixed clamping plates 9 and both movable clamping plates 14, and a pair of support rods 20 are fixed inside each of the four cavities 19. This design not only reduces the weight of the overall structure, but also enhances the strength and stability of the clamping plates. The addition of the support rods 20 makes the structure inside the cavity 19 more stable and effectively prevents the clamping plates from deforming due to uneven force.

[0034] Specifically, by Figure 2 As shown in this embodiment, silicone pads 22 are glued inside the four V-grooves 10. When the moving clamp 14 and the V-grooves 10 on the fixed clamp 9 clamp the water meter body 7 together, the silicone pads 22 can ensure that a soft contact layer is formed between the clamping surface and the outer wall of the water meter body 7, effectively reducing scratches or indentations on the water meter body 7 caused by excessive clamping force.

[0035] Specifically, by Figure 1 As shown in this embodiment, the water tank 2 is provided with a viewing window 3; the design of the viewing window 3 is intended to provide a direct observation of the internal testing process of the water tank 2. Through the viewing window 3, the operator can clearly see the performance of the water meter body 7 in the water, such as whether there is leakage, the uniformity of soaking, etc.

[0036] Specifically, by Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, both the arc-shaped clamping plate 15 and the positioning plate 17 are made of metal. The metal arc-shaped clamping plate 15 and the positioning plate 17 ensure the structure is sturdy and durable, and are not prone to loosening or deformation, thereby further enhancing the stability and reliability of the clamping mechanism.

[0037] It should be noted that both cylinder 5 and water meter body 7 are commercially available conventional devices with built-in power switches. Those skilled in the art can make conventional selections according to their needs. Their working principles are common knowledge known to those skilled in the art and have been fully disclosed in the prior art, so they will not be elaborated on further in this article.

[0038] The circuit connection involved in this utility model is a common method used by those skilled in the art, and technical inspiration can be obtained through a limited number of experiments. It belongs to the widely used prior art.

[0039] Components not described in detail in this article are existing technologies.

[0040] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: During use, first pull the connecting rod 12 to move the two moving clamps 14 away from the fixed clamp 9, and squeeze the spring 16 through the connecting plate 13. At this time, the water meter body 7 can be placed on the mounting frame 6, and the outer wall of the water meter body 7 initially contacts the V-groove 10 on the fixed clamp 9, providing initial positioning for subsequent clamping operations.

[0041] Subsequently, the operator releases the connecting rod 12, and the spring 16 pushes the connecting plate 13, causing the slide rod 21 to slide in the through hole of the fixed plate 11, which drives the connecting rod 12 and the movable clamping plate 14 on it to move towards the water meter body 7. As the movable clamping plate 14 approaches, the V-shaped groove 10 on it gradually contacts the outer wall of the water meter body 7 and generates clamping force. When the movable clamping plate 14 moves to a certain position, the arc-shaped clamping plate 15 moves just above the positioning plate 17. Then, the connecting rod 12 is rotated so that the arc-shaped clamping plate 15 is inserted into the positioning groove 18 on the positioning plate 17. At this time, the entire clamping mechanism reaches a stable state, and the water meter body 7 is firmly clamped between the two fixed clamping plates 9 and the two movable clamping plates 14. The cylinder 5 can then be activated to perform water meter testing. The activation of the cylinder 5 drives the installation frame 6 and the water meter body 7 to move up and down as a whole, so that the water meter body 7 can smoothly enter the water tank 2 for soaking or rinsing testing, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the test results.

[0042] This clamping method is simple to operate, requires no special tools, and provides uniform clamping force, effectively protecting the water meter body 7 from damage. At the same time, since the movable clamping plate 14 is connected to the fixed plate 11 through the spring 16 and the slide rod 21, when it is necessary to disassemble the water meter body 7, simply rotate the connecting rod 12 to disengage the arc-shaped clamping plate 15 from the positioning groove 18, and gently pull the connecting plate 13 outward. The movable clamping plate 14 will then move away from the water meter body 7, thus easily achieving the disassembly of the water meter body 7.

[0043] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
