[0022] The embodiment of the present application provides a one-to-two waterproof power line for a remote water meter, which can solve the problem that the general power line for a remote water meter in the prior art is poor in moisture resistance and difficult to meet the power supply demand of multiple water meters.

[0023] Please refer to Figures 1-4 A one-to-two waterproof power line for a remote water meter comprises a first male head 1, a first cable 2 arranged on the first male head 1, a three-way joint 3 arranged at one end of the first cable 2 away from the first male head 1, a second cable 4 and a third cable 5 arranged on the three-way joint 3, a female head 6 arranged at one end of the second cable 4 away from the three-way joint 3, a second male head 7 arranged at one end of the third cable 5 away from the three-way joint 3, a rubber ring 8 arranged on the first male head 1 and the second male head 7, and a nut 10 arranged on the first cable 2 and the third cable 5.

[0024] In this way, when the first male head 1 and the second male head 7 are inserted into a socket, the rubber ring 8 tightly adheres to the inner wall of the socket to form a seal, preventing moisture from entering the socket through the gap between the male head and the socket to cause faults such as electric leakage and short circuit. In addition, after the male head is inserted into the socket, the staff can screw the nut 10 to further press the rubber ring 8, thereby enhancing the sealing effect of the male head and the socket. Through the double protection of the rubber ring 8 and the nut 10, the power line can still maintain good waterproof performance in a humid environment, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the water meter. In addition, through the arrangement of the three-way joint 3, the second cable 4 and the third cable 5, the device can realize the function of supplying power to multiple water meters by a single power line, thereby reducing the installation and maintenance cost and enhancing the applicability and practicality of the device.

[0025] Specifically, in the embodiment, the storage assembly 9 is further included, the storage assembly 9 includes a protective shell 91 and two sets of limiting pieces 92, the protective shell 91 is sleeved on the first cable 2, and the two sets of limiting pieces 92 are arranged on the two sides of the interior of the protective shell 91 respectively, the limiting piece 92 includes a plurality of limiting rods 921, the plurality of limiting rods 921 are slidingly arranged in the protective shell 91, and the plurality of limiting rods 921 on the two sets of limiting pieces 92 are staggered and spaced apart from each other, the first cable 2 is wound on the plurality of limiting rods 921 in sequence, and the first cable 2 is distributed in the protective shell 91 in a snake shape.

[0026] In this way, when the staff uses the device, the first cable 2 at both ends of the protective shell 91 can be directly pulled out of the protective shell 91, and the plurality of limiting rods 921 are pushed to move, so that the staff can pull out the first cable 2 to a corresponding length according to the length of the power cord needed, and there is no extra first cable 2 scattered on the ground, so that the power cord can be effectively stored and managed, the first cable 2 is protected by the protective shell 91, and the winding and knotting of the cable during use can be prevented, thereby prolonging the service life of the power cord, and the practicability is high.

[0027] More specifically, the limiting piece 92 further includes a connecting plate 922, a threaded rod 923 and a handle 924, the connecting plate 922 is fixedly connected with the plurality of limiting rods 921, the threaded rod 923 penetrates through the connecting plate 922 and is screwedly connected with the connecting plate 922, and the handle 924 is arranged on the threaded rod 923.

[0028] In this way, when in use, the staff can pull the plurality of limiting rods 921 on the two sides to move through the connecting plate 922, so as to adjust the position of the plurality of limiting rods 921, so as to adjust the winding state of the first cable 2, so that the first cable 2 can be stretched and contracted according to the use requirement, and the staff can rotate the threaded rod 923 through the handle 924, so that the threaded rod 923 approaches the protective shell 91 through the threaded connection with the connecting plate 922, so that the threaded rod 923 abuts against the protective shell 91, thereby limiting and fixing the limiting rod 921, avoiding the displacement of the limiting rod 921 affecting the length of the first cable 2, so that the device can better adapt to cables of different lengths and types, thereby improving the management efficiency of the power cord and prolonging the service life of the power cord.

[0029] Further, in the embodiment, the two side inner walls of the protective shell 91 are symmetrically provided with a plurality of sliding grooves 911, the limiting rod 921 comprises a fixed rod 9211 and two groups of sliding blocks 9212, the two groups of sliding blocks 9212 are respectively sleeved at two ends of the fixed rod 9211, the sliding blocks 9212 are slidingly arranged in the sliding grooves 911, and the sliding blocks 9212 are fixedly connected with the connecting plate 922.

[0030] In this way, the movement track of the fixed rod 9211 can be guided and limited through the limiting effect of the sliding connection between the sliding blocks 9212 and the sliding grooves 911, the sliding of the fixed rod 9211 in the protective shell 91 is more smooth, and the stability of the first cable 2 is ensured, and the use is facilitated.

[0031] Further, the fixed rod 9211 is sleeved with a guide wheel 9213, and the guide wheel 9213 is rotatably connected with the fixed rod 9211.

[0032] In this way, when the first cable 2 moves on the fixed rod 9211, the first cable 2 can roll along the guide wheel 9213, so that the abrasion of the first cable 2 caused by direct friction on the fixed rod 9211 can be avoided, the service life of the first cable 2 and the storage assembly 9 is ensured, and the staff can pull the first cable 2 more smoothly and labor-savingly, so that the operation of the staff is facilitated, and the practicability is high.

[0033] Preferably, the surfaces of the first cable 2, the second cable 4 and the third cable 5 are all provided with fireproof layers.

[0034] In this way, the fireproof effect of the power cord can be further improved, so that the safety performance of the power cord is ensured.
