Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water meter well technology, specifically to a water meter well designed to prevent water accumulation. Background Technology
[0002] Water meter wells, which are essential components of water supply projects for daily life and production, are often buried brick structures. Since the water meter wells are typically located on the same side of the building as the water supply and drainage pipes and inspection wells, they are often close to the sewer pipes during construction. Over time, as the pipes reach the end of their lifespan and are damaged by external forces, drainage systems in older communities become clogged, allowing sewage to leak into the water meter wells. Alternatively, if the manhole cover is damaged, rainwater can enter the well through the damaged area, leading to the water meter wells being constantly submerged in sewage. This makes it impossible for meter readers to read the meters, and the facilities inside the well suffer severe corrosion and pollution. The water meter facilities age, and valves and meters become damaged, resulting in long-term inability to read and collect meters effectively, and even affecting users' normal water usage. To address these problems, the inventor proposes a water meter well designed to prevent water accumulation. Utility Model Content
[0003] In order to solve the problem that current water meter wells do not have the function of preventing water accumulation, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a water meter well that prevents water accumulation.
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a water meter well for preventing water accumulation, comprising a storage well and a drainage well, wherein the storage well includes a partition, a drainage groove is provided through the middle of the top surface of the partition, a filter screen is fixedly connected to the end face of the drainage groove, a vertical pipe is inserted through the top surface of the partition, a pipe connector is fixedly connected to the top end of the vertical pipe, a filter head is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the vertical pipe, a protruding cavity is embedded and fixedly connected to the top surface of the partition and on one side of the vertical pipe, a lifting rod is inserted through the opening of the protruding cavity, a limit plate is fixedly connected to the side wall of the lifting rod, an indicator rod is provided at the top end of the lifting rod, and a float plate is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the lifting rod.
[0005] Preferably, the drainage well is a hollow cylinder. A water pipe is installed inside the storage well, above the partition. A valve body and a water meter body are installed on the side wall of the water pipe. The storage well is located on one side of the ground. The water meter well must be embedded in the ground during installation, with the well end of the storage well higher than the ground level to prevent rainwater from flowing into the drainage well and reducing water accumulation. The water pipe, valve body, and water meter body are standard features of water meter wells and are not the focus of this device, so they will not be described in detail here. The bottom of the drainage well is hollow. When water accumulates in the storage well, the water can flow into the drainage well through the drainage channel. The hollow bottom of the drainage well allows the water to seep into the ground, increasing the amount of water that can be treated. The output end of the drainage channel extends into the drainage well. The outer diameter of the storage well is the same as that of the drainage well. The opening of the storage well is equipped with a well cover, and a handle is fixedly connected to the top surface of the well cover. The well cover can be opened and closed using the handle to operate the components inside the water meter well, such as checking the water consumption through the water meter body or opening and closing the valve body.
[0006] Preferably, a support frame is fixedly fitted onto the side wall of the vertical pipe. Several support frames are provided, with some side walls fixed to the inner wall of the storage well and others fixed to the inner wall of the drainage well. The support frames support and fix the vertical pipe. When water accumulates rapidly in the water meter well (i.e., the amount of water seeping into the ground is less than the accumulated amount), or when the ground water treatment capacity reaches saturation and the water in the drainage well can no longer be effectively drained through the ground, an external pump can be connected to a pipe connector to pump the water out of the drainage well through the vertical pipe for external discharge, thus ensuring the water in the drainage well is drained. The water will not enter the storage well through the drainage channel to ensure that there is no water accumulation in the storage well. The filter head is used to prevent impurities in the water from entering the vertical pipe when pumping water from the drainage well, thereby avoiding obstruction of the vertical pipe flow. The filter head is located inside the opening of the drainage well, and the pipe connector is located inside the opening of the storage well. The port of the pipe connector is detachably equipped with a sealing plug. When the vertical pipe is not used to pump water from the drainage well, the sealing plug and the pipe connector cooperate to seal the port of the pipe connector, so as to prevent external impurities from entering the pipe connector or the vertical pipe, ensuring normal operation when pumping is required.
[0007] Preferably, the size of the limiting plate is larger than the opening size of the convex cavity. The indicator rod is located inside the opening of the storage well, and the float is located inside the opening of the drainage well. The end of the indicator rod corresponds to the pipe connector. A protrusion is fixedly connected to the side wall of the indicator rod, and the bottom surface of the protrusion is fixedly connected to the top surface of the lifting rod. As shown in the figure, the float is in a suspended state and is located above the interior of the drainage well. The float can float in the water. The lifting rod, protrusion, limiting plate, and indicator rod are all made of lightweight materials. As the water accumulation in the drainage well increases... When the float can rise to the top, the tip of the indicator rod will be higher than the pipe connector, thus alerting the staff that there is a lot of water in the drainage well at this point. The water in the drainage well needs to be drained through the vertical pipe in time to prevent the water from continuing to accumulate and overflow into the storage well. When the water level in the drainage well has not reached the pumping value, the weight of the lifting rod, the convex block, the limit plate, and the indicator rod itself will keep the limit plate at the bottom. The cooperation between the limit plate and the convex cavity can prevent the limit plate from falling too far.
[0008] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0009] 1. This utility model can effectively prevent water accumulation in the storage well, making it convenient for operators to enter the well for meter reading or maintenance. The water meter well includes a storage well and a drainage well. The end of the storage well is higher than the ground to prevent rainwater from flowing into the drainage well, thus reducing water accumulation in the well. When water appears in the storage well, it can flow into the drainage well through the drainage channel to ensure that there is no water accumulation in the storage well. The bottom of the drainage well is hollow, allowing water to seep into the ground through the drainage well, thereby increasing the amount of water that can be treated.
[0010] 2. In this utility model, when water accumulates rapidly in the water meter well, i.e., when the amount of water seeping into the ground is less than the amount of water accumulated, or when the ground water treatment capacity reaches saturation and the water in the drainage well can no longer be effectively drained through the ground, the float will rise under the action of the water, so that the end of the indicator rod is higher than the pipe connection, thereby alerting the staff that there is a lot of water in the drainage well at this time, and the water in the drainage well needs to be drained out through the vertical pipe in time to prevent the water in the drainage well from continuing to accumulate and overflow into the storage well, thus ensuring that there is no water accumulation in the storage well.

Detailed Implementation
[0016] 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.
[0017] Example: Figure 1-3 As shown, this utility model provides a water meter well for preventing water accumulation, including a storage well 1 and a drainage well 2. The storage well 1 includes a partition 21. A drainage groove 5 is provided through the middle of the top surface of the partition 21. A filter screen 6 is fixedly connected to the end face of the drainage groove 5. A vertical pipe 10 is inserted through the top surface of the partition 21. A pipe connector 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the vertical pipe 10. A filter head 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the vertical pipe 10. A protrusion 15 is embedded and fixedly connected to the top surface of the partition 21 and one side of the vertical pipe 10. A lifting rod 16 is inserted through the opening of the protrusion 15. A limit plate 17 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the lifting rod 16. An indicator rod 20 is provided at the top of the lifting rod 16. A float plate 18 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the lifting rod 16.
[0018] The drainage well 2 is a hollow cylinder. Inside the storage well 1 and above the partition 21, a water pipe 7 is installed. The side wall of the water pipe 7 is equipped with a valve body 8 and a water meter body 9.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, a ground surface 22 is provided on one side of the storage well 1. When the water meter well is installed, it needs to be embedded in the ground surface 22, and the well end of the storage well 1 needs to be higher than the ground surface 22 to prevent water on the ground surface 22 from flowing into the drainage well 2 when it rains, so as to reduce water accumulation in the well. The water pipe 7, valve body 8 and water meter body 9 are all conventional settings for water meter wells and are not the focus of this device, so they will not be described in detail here. The bottom of the drainage well 2 is hollow. When water accumulates in the storage well 1, the water can flow into the drainage well 2 through the drainage channel 5. The hollow bottom of the drainage well 2 allows the water to seep into the ground surface 22, thereby increasing the amount of water that can be treated.
[0020] The output end of the drainage trough 5 extends into the drainage well 2. The outer diameter of the storage well 1 is the same as that of the drainage well 2. The opening of the storage well 1 is equipped with a well cover 3, and a handle 4 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the well cover 3.
[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the well cover 3 can be opened and closed by the handle 4 to operate the components inside the water meter well, such as checking the water consumption through the water meter body 9, or opening and closing the valve body 8.
[0022] A support frame 14 is fixedly fitted on the side wall of the vertical pipe 10. There are several support frames 14. The side wall of a part of the support frame 14 is fixed to the inner wall of the storage well 1, and the side wall of another part of the support frame 14 is fixed to the inner wall of the drainage well 2.
[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the support frame 14 is used to support and fix the vertical pipe 10. When water accumulates rapidly in the water meter well, that is, when the amount of water seeping into the ground 22 is less than the amount of water accumulated, or when the water treatment capacity of the ground 22 reaches saturation, and the water in the drainage well 2 can no longer be effectively drained through the ground 22, the external pump body can be connected to the pipe connector 12 to pump out the water in the drainage well 2 through the vertical pipe 10 for external discharge, so as to ensure that the water in the drainage well 2 will not enter the storage well 1 through the drainage trough 5, so as to ensure that there is no water accumulation in the storage well 1. The filter head 11 is used to prevent impurities in the water from entering the vertical pipe 10 when pumping out the water in the drainage well 2, thereby avoiding obstruction of the flow of the vertical pipe 10.
[0024] The filter head 11 is located inside the opening of the drainage well 2, the pipe connector 12 is located inside the opening of the storage well 1, and the port of the pipe connector 12 is detachably equipped with a sealing plug 13.
[0025] By adopting the above technical solution, when it is not necessary to use the vertical pipe 10 to pump water from the drainage well 2, the sealing plug 13 and the pipe connector 12 can be used to seal the port of the pipe connector 12 to prevent external debris from entering the pipe connector 12 or the vertical pipe 10, so as to ensure normal operation when pumping is required.
[0026] The size of the limiting plate 17 is larger than the opening size of the convex cavity 15. The indicator rod 20 is located inside the cylinder opening of the storage well 1, and the float plate 18 is located inside the cylinder opening of the drainage well 2. The rod end of the indicator rod 20 corresponds to the pipe connector 12. A protrusion 19 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the indicator rod 20, and the bottom surface of the protrusion 19 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the lifting rod 16.
[0027] By adopting the above technical solutions, such as Figure 2 As shown, the float 18 is suspended in mid-air and located above the interior of the drainage well 2. The float 18 can float in the water. The lifting rod 16, the protrusion 19, the limiting plate 17, and the indicator rod 20 are all made of lightweight materials. When the water in the drainage well 2 increases until the float 18 can float upward, the end of the indicator rod 20 will be higher than the pipe connector 12, thus alerting the staff that there is too much water in the drainage well 2 at this time. The water in the drainage well 2 needs to be drained out through the vertical pipe 10 in time to prevent the water in the drainage well 2 from continuing to accumulate and overflow into the storage well 1. When the water in the drainage well 2 has not reached the pumping value, the weight of the lifting rod 16, the protrusion 19, the limiting plate 17, and the indicator rod 20 can keep the limiting plate 17 at the bottom. Through the cooperation between the limiting plate 17 and the protrusion 15, the limiting plate 17 can be prevented from falling excessively.
[0028] Working principle: When using this utility model, the water meter well needs to be embedded in the ground 22 during installation, and the well end of the storage well 1 needs to be higher than the ground 22 to prevent water on the ground 22 from flowing into the drainage well 2 when it rains, so as to reduce water accumulation in the well.
[0029] When water accumulates rapidly in the water meter well, that is, when the amount of water that seeps into the ground 22 is less than the amount of water that accumulates, or when the water treatment capacity of the ground 22 reaches saturation, the water in the drainage well 2 can no longer be effectively drained through the ground 22. When the amount of water in the drainage well 2 increases until the float 18 can float upward, the end of the indicator rod 20 will be higher than the pipe connector 12, thus alerting the staff that there is too much water in the drainage well 2 and the water in the drainage well 2 needs to be drained out through the vertical pipe 10 in time to prevent the water in the drainage well 2 from continuing to accumulate and overflow into the storage well 1.
[0030] When extracting water from the drainage well 2, an external pump body is connected to the pipe connector 12 so that the water in the drainage well 2 can be extracted through the vertical pipe 10 and discharged externally to ensure that the water in the drainage well 2 will not enter the storage well 1 through the drainage trough 5, so as to ensure that there is no water accumulation in the storage well 1. The filter head 11 is used to prevent impurities in the water from entering the vertical pipe 10 when extracting water from the drainage well 2, thereby avoiding obstruction of the flow in the vertical pipe 10.
[0031] When the riser 10 is not needed to pump water from the drainage well 2, the sealing plug 13 and the pipe connector 12 cooperate to seal the port of the pipe connector 12, preventing external debris from entering the pipe connector 12 or the riser 10, ensuring normal operation when pumping is required. Under the weight of the lifting rod 16, the protrusion 19, the limiting plate 17, and the indicator rod 20, the limiting plate 17 is at its lowest position. At this time, the end of the indicator rod 20 corresponds to the pipe connector 12. Through the cooperation of the limiting plate 17 and the protrusion 15, the limiting plate 17 is prevented from falling excessively.
[0032] All standard parts used in this invention can be purchased from the market, and irregular parts can be customized according to the description and drawings. The specific connection methods of each part adopt conventional methods such as bolts, rivets, and welding that are mature in the prior art. The machinery, parts and equipment adopt conventional models in the prior art, and the circuit connection adopts conventional connection methods in the prior art, which will not be described in detail here.
[0033] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope. Therefore, if these modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims of this utility model and their equivalents, this utility model also intends to include these modifications and variations.
