Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water supply equipment technology, specifically a water distributor heating device. Background Technology
[0002] Water meter boxes are common civil infrastructure facilities, widely used in civil infrastructure construction in towns, cities of all sizes. Water meter boxes are usually equipped with water distributors, whose main functions are to centrally install and manage water meters, as well as to cooperate with single-pipe multi-way use, so as to reduce pipe procurement costs, shorten construction time, and improve the efficiency of water supply system.
[0003] Currently, in colder regions, the water distributor inside the water meter box often freezes due to improper insulation or extremely low ambient temperatures. This freezing causes the water inside the distributor to expand in volume, which can easily damage the water meter. This not only inconveniences users but also causes economic losses to the water supply company. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a water distributor heating device, which has the advantage of heating and controlling the temperature of the water inside the water distributor at low temperatures, thus preventing the water meter from being damaged due to freezing.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a water distributor heating device, comprising a heat insulation pad sleeved on both sides of the water distributor body, a heating film pasted in the middle of the heat insulation pad, the surface of the heating film being movably connected to the surface of the water distributor body, a second cable fixedly installed on the surface of the heating film, a concentrator fixedly installed at the upper end of the second cable, and an arc-shaped shell fixedly connected to the surface of the heat insulation pad away from the heating film.
[0006] As a preferred embodiment, a limiting groove is provided at the right end of the arc-shaped shell, and a locking hole is provided at the left end of the limiting groove. A U-shaped locking frame is movably connected between the surfaces of the two limiting grooves. Metal springs are fixedly connected to both sides of the U-shaped locking frame, and a locking block is fixedly connected to the left end of the metal spring. The surface of the locking block is movably connected to the surface of the locking hole.
[0007] As a preferred embodiment, a pull plate is fixedly connected to the right side of the U-shaped card frame, and a connecting strip is fixedly connected to the right side of the pull plate.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment, a fixed pivot is fitted between the left ends of the two arc-shaped shells.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment, a temperature sensor is fixedly installed on the top of the water distributor body, and a first cable is fixedly installed between the top of the temperature sensor and the lower end of the concentrator.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0011] 1. This utility model, through the design of an arc-shaped shell, a heat-insulating pad, and a heating film, can connect to the main body of the water distributor. When the water temperature inside the main body of the water distributor approaches freezing point, power can be supplied to the heating film via a second cable under the action of the concentrator. This causes the heating film to heat the area around the main body of the water distributor under the action of power, and the heat generated can be transferred to the water inside the main body of the water distributor, thereby raising the water temperature. This avoids the water inside the main body of the water distributor from freezing due to excessively low temperature, which could cause the smart water meter to crack and be damaged due to freezing. This reduces the damage to the water supply company and avoids adverse effects on residents' water use.
[0012] 2. This utility model, through the design of a limiting groove, a locking hole, a U-shaped locking frame, a metal spring, and a locking block, can lock and limit the right ends of the two sets of arc-shaped shells, preventing them from detaching from the surface of the manifold body during use. When personnel need to disassemble the arc-shaped shells, insulation pads, and heating film, they can pull the U-shaped locking frame to the right. Under the elastic action of the metal spring, the locking block disengages from the locking hole. Simultaneously, the U-shaped locking frame disengages from the limiting groove, allowing personnel to open the connection between the two sets of arc-shaped shells, insulation pads, and heating film and remove them from the surface of the manifold body. This facilitates installation and disassembly. The disassembly process is greatly facilitated. The pull plate and connecting strip make it easy for personnel to pull the U-shaped frame while connecting multiple sets of U-shaped frames, reducing the chance of losing the U-shaped frame. The fixed rotating shaft allows the left ends of the two sets of arc-shaped shells to be connected, so that personnel can push the arc-shaped shells to rotate along the surface of the fixed rotating shaft during disassembly. The temperature sensor and the first cable can monitor the water temperature inside the water distributor and transmit it to the concentrator, so that the concentrator can control the operation of the heating film according to the water temperature.
[0013] 3. This utility model achieves the purpose of installing and fixing the concentrator through the installation frame, and the protective box door facilitates the protection of the front of the water meter box by water supply personnel. Attached Figure Description

[0020] 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.
[0021] Secondly, the term "an embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that excludes other embodiments.
[0022] Example 1:
[0023] Please see Figures 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a water distributor heating device, including heat insulation pads 14 sleeved on both sides of the water distributor body 2, a heating film 13 pasted in the middle of the heat insulation pads 14, the surface of the heating film 13 being movably connected to the surface of the water distributor body 2, a second cable 11 being fixedly installed on the surface of the heating film 13, a concentrator 7 being fixedly installed at the upper end of the second cable 11, and an arc-shaped shell 12 being fixedly connected to the surface of the heat insulation pads 14 and the side away from the heating film 13.
[0024] In this technical solution, the arc-shaped shell 12, the heat insulation pad 14, and the heating film 13 are designed to connect with the main body 2 of the water distributor. When the water temperature inside the main body 2 approaches freezing, the concentrator 7 can supply power to the heating film 13 via the second cable 11. (It should be noted that the concentrator 7, as existing technology, contains a processor and control unit. Based on preset water temperature parameters, it controls the heating film 13 to operate accordingly and transmits water temperature data to the water company's back-end system in real time, allowing back-end personnel to monitor the water temperature.) This design allows waterworks personnel to promptly detect and address any issues arising from damage to the heating membrane 13, which causes the water temperature to remain at freezing levels. When energized, the heating membrane 13 heats the area around the main body 2 of the water distributor, allowing the generated heat to be transferred through the main body 2 to the water inside, thus raising the water temperature. This prevents excessive freezing of the water inside the main body 2, which could lead to the smart water meter 5 cracking and being damaged by freezing. This reduces damage to the water supply company and avoids adverse effects on residents' water usage.
[0025] Example 2:
[0026] Based on Embodiment 1, this utility model is as follows: Figures 2-5 As shown, a limiting groove 17 is provided at the right end of the arc-shaped shell 12, and a locking hole 19 is provided at the left end of the limiting groove 17. A U-shaped locking frame 15 is movably connected between the surfaces of the two limiting grooves 17. Metal springs 20 are fixedly connected to both sides of the U-shaped locking frame 15. A locking block 21 is fixedly connected to the left end of the metal springs 20. The surface of the locking block 21 is movably connected to the surface of the locking hole 19. A pulling plate 18 is fixedly connected to the right side of the U-shaped locking frame 15. A connecting strip 16 is fixedly connected to the right side of the pulling plate 18. A fixed rotating shaft 10 is sleeved between the left ends of the two arc-shaped shells 12. A temperature sensor 9 is fixedly installed on the top of the water distributor body 2. A first cable 8 is fixedly installed between the top of the temperature sensor 9 and the lower end of the concentrator 7.
[0027] In this technical solution, the setting of limiting groove 17, locking hole 19, U-shaped locking frame 15, metal spring 20, and locking block 21 can lock and limit the right ends of the two sets of arc-shaped shells 12, preventing the two sets of arc-shaped shells 12 from falling off the surface of the water distributor body 2 during use. When personnel need to disassemble the arc-shaped shells 12, insulation pads 14, and heating film 13, they can pull the U-shaped locking frame 15 to the right. Under the elastic action of the metal spring 20, the locking block 21 will disengage from the surface of the locking hole 19. Simultaneously, after the U-shaped locking frame 15 disengages from the surface of the limiting groove 17, personnel can open the gap between the two sets of arc-shaped shells 12, insulation pads 14, and heating film 13 and remove them from the surface of the water distributor body 2. The installation and disassembly work is greatly facilitated by the pull plate 18 and the connecting strip 16. This allows personnel to pull the U-shaped frame 15 while connecting multiple sets of U-shaped frames 15, reducing the chance of losing the U-shaped frame 15. The fixed rotating shaft 10 connects the left ends of the two sets of arc-shaped shells 12, allowing personnel to push the arc-shaped shells 12 to rotate along the surface of the fixed rotating shaft 10 during disassembly. The temperature sensor 9 and the first cable 8 monitor the water temperature inside the water distributor body 2 and transmit the data to the concentrator 7, so that the concentrator 7 can control the operation of the heating film 13 according to the water temperature.
[0028] Example 3:
[0029] Based on Embodiment 1, this utility model is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, a smart water meter 5 is fixedly installed on the right side of the main body 2 of the water distributor, a water meter box 1 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the main body 2 of the water distributor, an installation frame 6 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the inner cavity of the water meter box 1, the surface of the concentrator 7 is fixedly installed in the middle of the installation frame 6, a protective door 3 is movably connected to the left end of the front surface of the water meter box 1 through a hinge, a handle is fixedly connected to the left side of the protective door 3, and a pipe hole 4 is opened on the right side of the water meter box 1.
[0030] In this technical solution, the installation frame 6 is used to install and fix the concentrator 7, and the protective door 3 is used to protect the front of the water meter box 1 from the water supply personnel.
[0031] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the essence and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model.
