Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of flow meters, and more specifically, to a tooling suitable for the convenient disassembly and assembly and protection of an air intake flow meter. Background Technology

[0002] A flow meter is a device that measures the flow rate of liquids or gases. Depending on the application, flow meters come in various appearances and types. Gas flow meters are instruments that measure the flow rate of gases. They are installed in pipelines to record the amount of gas flowing through them and are widely used in industrial production and scientific research. Gas flow rate data can be used as important reference data. The installation sealing and performance of the flow meter affect the accuracy of the measurement results, so it is necessary to disassemble and test the flow meter regularly.

[0003] Currently, in some locations where flow meters need to be disassembled and installed regularly for verification, the disassembly and installation of flow meters requires two people to work together. However, due to the high height of some pipelines, the installation is troublesome. When manually holding or dragging the flow meter, it is unstable and the connection is not correct, which leads to poor sealing and air leakage on the other side. Moreover, when disassembling and installing at height, there is a risk of the flow meter falling and being damaged if it is not held firmly. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To overcome the shortcomings of the existing system, this application provides a tooling suitable for convenient disassembly and assembly and protection of air intake flow meters. It can solve the problem that the disassembly and assembly of flow meters requires two people to cooperate in the operation. However, due to the high height of some pipelines, the installation is troublesome. The flow meter is unstable when manually held or dragged, and the connection is not correct, resulting in poor sealing and air leakage when the other is installed and fixed. Moreover, when disassembling and assembling at height, there is a risk of the flow meter falling and being damaged if it is not held firmly.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the embodiments of this application to solve its technical problem is:

[0006] A tooling suitable for easy disassembly and assembly and protection of an air intake flow meter includes a clamping component and a protective component.

[0007] The clamping assembly includes a first channel steel, a second channel steel, a first screw, a tightening nut, a connector, and a limiting angle steel. The first screw passes through the first channel steel and the second channel steel, and the tightening nut is threaded onto both ends of the first screw. The connector is fixedly connected to the limiting angle steel and is connected to the first channel steel. The second channel steel is also provided with the connector.

[0008] The protective assembly includes a second screw, a sleeve, a limiting nut, an adjusting limiting component, and a protective support frame. The sleeve is fixedly connected to both the first channel steel and the second channel steel. The second screw slides through the second screw. Multiple limiting nuts are sleeved on the second screw. The adjusting limiting component is disposed on the second screw. The protective support frame is disposed on the top of the adjusting limiting component.

[0009] In one specific implementation, the connector includes a threaded post and a connecting nut. The threaded post is fixedly connected to the limiting angle steel and passes through the first channel steel. The connecting nut is threadedly sleeved on the threaded post.

[0010] In the above implementation process, a threaded post and a connecting nut are set up. The threaded post passes through the first channel steel, and then the connecting nut is tightened to fix it.

[0011] In one specific implementation, both the first channel steel and the second channel steel are provided with multiple positioning holes, and the threaded column moves through the positioning holes.

[0012] In the above implementation process, by opening multiple positioning holes, the threaded column can be inserted into different positioning holes according to actual needs, and the distance between the two limiting angle steels can be adjusted to adapt to pipes of different diameters.

[0013] In one specific implementation, the limiting nuts are arranged at both ends of the sleeve, and the limiting nuts abut against the sleeve.

[0014] In the above implementation process, by arranging limit nuts at both ends of the sleeve, after adjusting the position relative to the sliding sleeve and the second screw, the limit nuts are tightened to abut against the sleeve for limiting.

[0015] In one specific implementation, the adjusting limit member includes a sleeve and an adjusting nut. The sleeve is threaded onto the second screw, and the adjusting nut is threaded onto the second screw, with the adjusting nut abutting against the sleeve. The adjusting nut is arranged at both ends of the sleeve.

[0016] In the above implementation process, by setting up a sleeve and adjusting nuts, rotating the sleeve drives the protective support frame to move. After adjusting the angle of the protective support frame, the adjusting nuts are then tightened to abut against both ends of the sleeve, thereby restricting the axial movement of the sleeve and thus restricting the rotation of the sleeve.

[0017] In one specific implementation, the protective support frame includes a support rod and a protective rod. The support rod is fixedly connected to the sleeve, and the protective rod is disposed on the top of the support rod, with two protective rods arranged in parallel.

[0018] In the above implementation process, by setting support rods and protective rods, the two parallel protective rods can fit in close contact with the bottom of the flow meter for support and protection.

[0019] In one specific implementation, the system further includes a piping assembly comprising a vent pipe, a flow meter body, and a connecting clamp. The flow meter body is located at the end of the vent pipe, the vent pipe abuts against a plurality of the limiting angle steels, and the connecting clamp is fitted at the junction of the vent pipe and the flow meter body.

[0020] In one specific implementation, the connecting clamp includes a ring clamp, a threaded head, and a clamping nut. The threaded head is located at one end of the ring clamp, and a groove is formed at the other end of the ring clamp. The clamping nut is threadedly fitted onto the threaded head.

[0021] In the above process, by setting up a ring clamp, a threaded head, and a clamping nut, after the ends of the ring clamp are connected, the threaded head passes through the groove, and then the clamping nut is tightened onto the threaded head to achieve connection and fixation.

[0022] In one specific implementation, the pipe assembly further includes a sealing gasket, which is fitted onto the joint between the vent pipe and the flow meter body, and the sealing gasket is located inside the ring clamp.

[0023] In the above implementation process, a sealing gasket is set to improve the sealing performance of the connection between the vent pipe and the flow meter body.

[0024] In one specific implementation, the protective rod abuts against the bottom of the flow meter body.

[0025] The advantages of this embodiment are: by setting the first channel steel, the second channel steel, the first screw, the tightening nut, the connecting piece, and the limiting angle steel, a stable protective support can be provided at the two pipe openings where the flow meter is installed. The position of the limiting angle steel can be adjusted to adapt to pipes of different diameters. Then, by setting the second screw, the sleeve, the limiting nut, the adjusting limiting piece, and the protective support frame, the flow meter can be stably supported, ensuring stability during the process of installing and removing the flow meter, ensuring connection quality, and the installation and removal can be completed by a single person. This not only improves the installation quality but also significantly improves the efficiency of installation and removal, and ensures high safety. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0033] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with embodiments.

[0034] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0035] In the embodiments, unless otherwise specified, all methods used are conventional methods in the art.

[0036] Please see Figures 1-6 This application provides a tooling suitable for easy disassembly and assembly and protection of an air intake flow meter, including a clamping component 100 and a protective component 200.

[0037] Please see Figure 1 , 2 3. The clamping assembly 100 includes a first channel steel 110, a second channel steel 120, a first screw 130, a tightening nut 140, a connector 150, and a limiting angle steel 160. The first screw 130 passes through the first channel steel 110 and the second channel steel 120. Both ends of the first screw 130 are threaded with tightening nuts 140. The connector 150 is fixedly connected to the limiting angle steel 160 and connected to the first channel steel 110. The second channel steel 120 is also provided with a connector 150.

[0038] The connector 150 includes a threaded post 151 and a connecting nut 152. The threaded post 151 is fixedly connected to the limiting angle steel 160 and passes through the first channel steel 110. The connecting nut 152 is threaded onto the threaded post 151. By setting the threaded post 151 and the connecting nut 152, the threaded post 151 passes through the first channel steel 110 and is then tightened and fixed by the connecting nut 152.

[0039] Specifically, the first channel steel 110 and the second channel steel 120 are each provided with multiple positioning holes 170. The threaded column 151 moves through the positioning hole 170. By providing multiple positioning holes 170, the threaded column 151 can be adjusted to be inserted into different positioning holes 170 according to actual needs, and the distance between the two limiting angle steels 160 can be adjusted to adapt to pipes of different diameters.

[0040] Please see Figure 1 , 3 4. The protective component 200 includes a second screw 210, a sleeve 220, a limiting nut 240, an adjusting limiting component 250, and a protective support frame 260. The first channel steel 110 and the second channel steel 120 are both fixedly connected to the sleeve 220. The second screw 210 slides through the second screw 210. The second screw 210 is sleeved with multiple limiting nuts 240. The adjusting limiting component 250 is disposed on the second screw 210. The protective support frame 260 is disposed on the top of the adjusting limiting component 250.

[0041] The sleeve 220 has limit nuts 240 at both ends. The limit nuts 240 abut against the sleeve 220. By arranging limit nuts 240 at both ends of the sleeve 220, the relative position of the sliding sleeve 220 and the second screw 210 is adjusted, and the limit nuts 240 are tightened to abut against the sleeve 220 for limiting.

[0042] Specifically, the adjusting limit component 250 includes a sleeve 251 and an adjusting nut 252. The sleeve 251 is threaded onto the second screw 210, and the adjusting nut 252 is threaded onto the second screw 210 and abuts against the sleeve 251. Adjusting nuts 252 are arranged at both ends of the sleeve 251. By setting the sleeve 251 and the adjusting nut 252, rotating the sleeve 251 drives the protective support frame 260 to move. After adjusting the angle of the protective support frame 260, the adjusting nut 252 is then turned to abut against both ends of the sleeve 251, thereby restricting the axial movement of the sleeve 251 and thus restricting the rotation of the sleeve 251.

[0043] In this embodiment, the protective support frame 260 includes a support rod 261 and a protective rod 262. The support rod 261 is fixedly connected to the sleeve 251, and the protective rod 262 is disposed on the top of the support rod 261. There are two protective rods 262 arranged in parallel. By setting the support rod 261 and the protective rod 262, the two parallel protective rods 262 can fit against the bottom of the contact flow meter for support and protection.

[0044] Please see Figure 1 , 4 5 and 6 also include a pipe assembly 300, which includes a vent pipe 310, a flow meter body 320 and a connecting clamp 340. The flow meter body 320 is located at the end of the vent pipe 310, the vent pipe 310 abuts between multiple limiting angle steels 160, and the connecting clamp 340 is sleeved at the joint between the vent pipe 310 and the flow meter body 320.

[0045] The connecting clamp 340 includes a ring clamp 341, a threaded head 342, and a clamping nut 343. The threaded head 342 is located at one end of the ring clamp 341, and a groove is provided at the other end of the ring clamp 341. The clamping nut 343 is threaded onto the threaded head 342. By setting the ring clamp 341, the threaded head 342, and the clamping nut 343, after the ends of the ring clamp 341 are aligned, the threaded head 342 passes through the groove, and then the clamping nut 343 is tightened onto the threaded head 342 to achieve connection and fixation.

[0046] It should be noted that the pipe assembly 300 also includes a sealing gasket 330. The sealing gasket 330 is fitted at the joint between the vent pipe 310 and the flow meter body 320. The sealing gasket 330 is located inside the ring 341. By setting the sealing gasket 330, the sealing performance of the joint connection between the vent pipe 310 and the flow meter body 320 is improved. The protective rod 262 abuts against the bottom of the flow meter body 320.

[0047] The working principle of this tooling suitable for easy disassembly and disassembly and protection of the air intake flow meter is as follows: In use, the first channel steel 110 and the second channel steel 120 are clamped at the end of the vent pipe 310, and the first screw 130 passes through the first channel steel 110 and the second channel steel 120. A tightening nut 140 is then fitted onto the end of the first screw 130, with the two tightening nuts 140 respectively pressing into the first channel steel 110 and the second channel steel 120. The limiting angle steels 160 on the first channel steel 110 and the second channel steel 120 abut against the end of the vent pipe 310, effectively ensuring the stability of the clamping of the vent pipe 310. Simultaneously, the threaded post 151 can be inserted into different positioning holes 170 according to actual needs, adjusting the distance between the two limiting angle steels 160. Finally, a connecting nut is used... Tighten and secure the 152 screws to fit the vent pipes 310 of different diameters. Then, pass the second screw 210 through the sleeve 220 to ensure that the clamping mechanisms on both sides are parallel. Finally, put the sealing gasket 330 on the flow meter body 320 and place the flow meter body 320 between multiple protective rods 262. The multiple parallel protective rods 262 can fit and support the bottom of the flow meter for support and protection, thereby stabilizing the connection between the flow meter body 320 and the vent pipe 310. Then, install the ring clamp 341, threaded head 342 and clamping nut 343 to ensure stability during the disassembly and assembly of the flow meter, ensure connection quality, and allow a single person to complete the disassembly and assembly. This not only improves the installation quality but also significantly improves the disassembly and assembly efficiency and ensures high safety.

[0048] It should be noted that the specific model and specifications of the flow meter body 320 need to be selected and determined according to the actual specifications of the device. The specific selection and calculation method adopts the existing technology in this field, so it will not be described in detail here.

[0049] The power supply and operating principle of the flowmeter body 320 are clear to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here.

[0050] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this application is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that this application can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this application. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this application is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within this application. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
