Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water meter processing technology, specifically to a capping device for water meter production. Background Technology

[0002] A water meter is an instrument used to measure water flow. It is typically used to cumulatively measure water flow. The history of water meters can be traced back to 1825, when the British inventor, Crowe, invented the balance tank water meter, which truly possessed the characteristics of an instrument. Water meters were introduced to China in 1883, and with technological advancements, they have gradually become an indispensable metering tool in households and industries.

[0003] After the water meter is manufactured, its internal parts need to be properly protected to prevent the intrusion of external factors such as dust and moisture. The cap can effectively seal the water meter casing and prevent damage to the internal parts, thereby ensuring the accuracy and service life of the water meter. However, the frequent contact and friction between the capping head and the bottle cap can easily cause wear on the capping head, resulting in changes in the shape and size of the capping head. This, in turn, affects the accuracy and stability of the capping, leading to slippage, incomplete capping, and other problems. When replacing the existing capping head, the production line usually needs to be stopped. If the replacement process is complicated and time-consuming, it can lead to a long downtime, forcing the interruption of production and affecting the output of products.

[0004] Therefore, a capping device for water meter production is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the problem of long replacement time of the capping head, which affects the output of products. This utility model provides a capping device for water meter production.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model specifically adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A capping device for water meter production includes a base, a movable component at the bottom of the base, a fixed frame fixedly connected to the top of the base, a capping mechanism at the top of the fixed frame, a fixed plate at the output end of the capping mechanism, hydraulic rods two fixedly connected around the perimeter of the fixed plate, clamping rods fixedly connected to the output ends of the hydraulic rods two, rubber pads provided on the sides of the bottom ends of the clamping rods that are close to each other, a sleeve rod fixedly connected to the top center of the fixed plate, limit grooves provided on the left and right sides of the sleeve rod, a fixed component at the top of the base, a placement plate at the top of the base, a positioning component at the top of the base, and a control mechanism on the right side of the fixed frame.

[0008] Furthermore, the fixing assembly includes a top plate fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixing plate, support rods fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the bottom of the top plate, sleeves fixedly connected to the output ends of the support rods, side plates fixedly connected to the bottom of the top plate, a fixing rod one fixedly connected between the side plates, a movable block movably connected to the outer wall of the fixing rod one, an arc-shaped groove opened on the top of the movable blocks on the side closest to each other, a crossbar set inside the arc-shaped groove, and a hydraulic rod three set inside the top plate.

[0009] Furthermore, the shape and volume of the sleeve are adapted to the interior of the sleeve.

[0010] Furthermore, the positioning component includes a fixed rod two fixedly connected to the top of the base, a driven gear movably connected to the top of the fixed rod two, rectangular slots being provided around the top of the base, movable plates being provided around the driven gear, movable rods being fixedly connected to the bottom of each movable plate, positioning plates being fixedly connected to the top of each movable plate, limit rods being fixedly connected to the bottom of each movable plate, limit holes being provided around the top of the driven gear, a stepper motor being fixedly connected to the left side of the top of the base, a rotating shaft being fixedly connected to the output end of the stepper motor, and a drive gear being fixedly connected to the output end of the rotating shaft.

[0011] Furthermore, the shape and volume of the limiting rod are adapted to the interior of the limiting hole.

[0012] Furthermore, the moving component includes a through groove formed around the bottom of the base, with a hydraulic rod fixedly connected to the top of the inside of the through groove, and a wheel fixedly connected to the output end of the hydraulic rod.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] 1. This utility model enables convenient movement of the device through a movable component. The water meter is then placed on top of the placement plate, and the water meter cover is placed between the clamping rods. Rubber pads prevent wear on the water meter cover during the capping process. The drive fixing component facilitates easy installation and disassembly between the fixing plate and the capping mechanism. When replacing the clamping rods, it is not necessary to disassemble the entire capping device; the capping head can be replaced with a simple operation, thereby improving the efficiency of maintenance work and greatly shortening maintenance time. At the same time, the positioning component positions the water meter so that it is located at the bottom of the capping head. The capping mechanism is activated to cap the water meter, ensuring that the water meter does not shake randomly during the capping process, thus preventing gaps at the connection.

[0015] 2. This utility model, through the setting of the fixing component, places the sleeve rod inside the sleeve. When the hydraulic rod three is activated, the hydraulic rod three drives the crossbar to move up or down inside the arc groove through the output end. During the upward movement of the arc groove, the movable block drives the movable block to rotate inward around the fixed rod one, so that the top ends of the movable block that are far apart are respectively located inside the limiting groove, realizing that the movable block clamps the sleeve rod. When the hydraulic rod three moves downward, the crossbar drives the movable block to rotate outward around the fixed rod one, so that the output end of the movable block disengages from the limiting groove. This realizes convenient installation and disassembly between the fixing plate and the capping mechanism, and quick replacement of the clamping rod, avoiding situations such as the clamping rod not being able to screw the cap in place.

[0026] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a capping device for water meter production includes a base 1. A moving component 2 for driving the device to move is provided at the bottom of the base 1. A fixing frame 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 1. A capping mechanism 4 is provided at the top of the fixing frame 3. A fixing plate 401 is provided at the output end of the capping mechanism 4. Hydraulic rods 402 are fixedly connected to all four sides of the fixing plate 401. Clamping rods 403 are fixedly connected to the output ends of the hydraulic rods 402. Rubber pads 404 are provided on the sides of the bottom of the clamping rods 403 that are close to each other. A sleeve rod 405 is fixedly connected to the center of the top of the fixing plate 401. Limiting grooves 406 are provided on the left and right sides of the sleeve rod 405. A fixing component 5 for easy disassembly and fixing of the fixing plate 401 is provided at the top of the base 1. A placement plate 6 is provided at the top of the base 1. A positioning component 7 for positioning the water meter is provided at the top of the base 1. A control mechanism 8 is provided on the right side of the fixing frame 3.

[0027] It should be noted that the movable component 2 facilitates the movement of the device. The water meter is then placed on top of the placement plate 6, and the water meter cover is placed between the clamping rods 403. The rubber pad 404 prevents wear on the water meter cover during the capping process. The drive fixing component 5 facilitates the installation and removal of the fixing plate 401 and the capping mechanism 4. When replacing the clamping rods 403, it is not necessary to disassemble the entire capping device. The capping head can be replaced with a simple operation, thereby improving the efficiency of maintenance work and greatly shortening maintenance time. At the same time, the positioning component 7 positions the water meter so that it is located at the bottom of the capping head. The capping mechanism 4 starts to cap the water meter, ensuring that the water meter does not shake randomly during the capping process, thus preventing gaps at the connection.

[0028] The fixing component 5 includes a top plate 501 fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixing plate 401. Support rods 502 are fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the bottom of the top plate 501. A sleeve 503 is fixedly connected to the output end of the support rod 502. The sleeve rod 405 is located inside the sleeve 503. Side plates 504 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the top plate 501. A fixing rod 505 is fixedly connected between the side plates 504. A movable block 506 is movably connected to the outer wall of the fixing rod 505. The bottom of the movable blocks 506 on the side closest to each other is located inside the limiting groove 406. An arc groove 507 is opened on the top of the side closest to each other of the movable blocks 506. A crossbar 508 is provided inside the arc groove 507. A hydraulic rod 509 is provided inside the top plate 501. The output end of the hydraulic rod 509 is fixedly connected to the top of the crossbar 508.

[0029] It should be noted that when the sleeve rod 405 is placed inside the sleeve 503, the hydraulic rod 3 509 is activated. The hydraulic rod 3 509 drives the crossbar 508 to move upward or downward inside the arc groove 507 through its output end. During the upward movement of the arc groove 507, the movable block 506 rotates inward around the fixed rod 1 505, so that the ends of the movable block 506 that are far apart are located inside the limiting groove 406, thus clamping the sleeve rod 405. When the hydraulic rod 3 509 moves downward, the crossbar 508 drives the movable block 506 to rotate outward around the fixed rod 1 505, so that the output end of the movable block 506 is disengaged from the limiting groove 406. This facilitates the installation and disassembly of the fixed plate 401 and the capping mechanism 4, and allows for quick replacement of the clamping rod 403, preventing situations such as the clamping rod 403 not being able to cap properly.

[0030] The positioning component 7 includes a fixed rod 701 fixedly connected to the center of the top of the base 1. A driven gear 702 is movably connected to the top of the fixed rod 701. The placement plate 6 is located on top of the driven gear 702. Rectangular slots 703 are provided around the top of the base 1. Movable plates 704 are provided around the driven gear 702. Movable rods 705 are fixedly connected to the bottom sides of the movable plates 704 that are far apart from each other. The movable rods 705 are located inside the rectangular slots 703. The top sides of the movable plates 704 that are close to each other are fixedly connected to the bottom sides of the movable plates 704. Each of the base plates 704 is fixedly connected to a positioning plate 706. The bottom of each movable plate 704 is fixedly connected to a limit rod 707 on one side that is close to each other. The driven gear 702 has limit holes 708 around its top. The limit rods 707 are located inside the limit holes 708. A stepper motor 709 is fixedly connected to the top left side of the base 1. A rotating shaft 710 is fixedly connected to the output end of the stepper motor 709. A drive gear 711 is fixedly connected to the output end of the rotating shaft 710. The drive gear 711 and the driven gear 702 mesh with each other.

[0031] It should be noted that, firstly, the water meter is placed on top of the placement plate 6. The external controller is started, and the stepper motor 709 starts, driving the rotating shaft 710 to rotate forward or backward through the output end. During the rotation of the rotating shaft 710, the driving gear 711 is driven to rotate. During the rotation of the driving gear 711, the driven gear 702 meshing with it is driven to rotate. During the rotation of the driven gear 702, the limiting rod 707 is pulled by the limiting hole 708 to move closer to or further away from each other. The limiting rod 707 drives the movable plate 704 to move. The movable plate 704 slides inside the rectangular groove 703 through the movable rod 705. During the movement, the movable plate 704 clamps and positions the water meter from all sides, so that the water meter will not shake during the capping process, and the connection between the water meter and the cap will not be loose.

[0032] The moving component 2 includes a through groove 201 formed around the bottom of the base 1. A hydraulic rod 202 is fixedly connected to the top of the inside of the through groove 201, and a wheel 203 is fixedly connected to the output end of the hydraulic rod 202.

[0033] It should be noted that when the device needs to be moved, hydraulic rod 202 is activated, and hydraulic rod 202 drives wheel 203 to move downward through the output end until wheel 203 is on the ground, and the position of the device can be moved by wheel 203.

[0034] In summary: The movable component 2 facilitates the movement of the device. The water meter is then placed on top of the placement plate 6, and the water meter cover is placed between the clamping rods 403. The rubber pad 404 prevents wear on the water meter cover during the capping process. The drive fixing component 5 facilitates the installation and removal of the fixing plate 401 and the capping mechanism 4. When replacing the clamping rods 403, it is not necessary to disassemble the entire capping device. The capping head can be replaced with a simple operation, thereby improving the efficiency of maintenance work and greatly shortening maintenance time. At the same time, the positioning component 7 positions the water meter so that it is located at the bottom of the capping head. The capping mechanism 4 starts to cap the water meter, ensuring that the water meter does not shake randomly during the capping process, thus preventing gaps at the connection.
