Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of valve technology, and in particular to a flow monitoring device for valve taps. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing level of industrial automation and the popularization of intelligent buildings, the demand for precise control and monitoring of fluids is growing. As key control components in fluid systems, valves and faucets play an important role in energy management, equipment operation status analysis, fault early warning, and production safety through real-time monitoring of their flow data. The global emphasis on energy conservation and emission reduction requires industrial and civil sectors to optimize resource utilization efficiency. Flow monitoring devices can help users grasp energy consumption data in real time, adjust valve opening or equipment operation mode in a targeted manner, and reduce unnecessary fluid loss.
[0003] In industrial pipelines, excessive fluid flow can cause pipes, pumps, and valves to be subjected to loads exceeding their design pressure and flow rates. Prolonged overload can accelerate equipment wear and even lead to ruptures and leaks, affecting production safety and system stability. In many industrial production processes, precise flow control is crucial for ensuring product quality and production efficiency. In the food processing industry, controlling liquid flow ensures accurate filling of each beverage bottle, improving production efficiency and product quality. Current technology utilizes electric motors to drive valve opening and closing, achieving automated control. This often forms a closed-loop control system with sensors and controllers, automatically adjusting valve opening based on set flow values. However, this control method is costly, as the electric actuators and associated control systems are expensive, and water ingress can cause short circuits, rendering the electric actuator unusable.

The sealing ring 2032 seals the gap between the two. Then, by rotating the rotating wheel 2051, the rotating wheel 2051 will drive the fixing rod 2052 and the transmission rod 2061 to rotate. The transmission rod 2061 will rotate together with the baffle 2062. During the rotation, the baffle 2062 will create a gap with the inside of the valve body 1. By controlling the size of the gap, the flow rate can be controlled, realizing the control of the flow rate and sealing of the equipment, reducing liquid leakage and reducing the cost of controlling the flow rate.
[0043] The liquid flowing through the valve body 1 impacts the vane 304, which in turn drives the rotating column 303 to rotate. External personnel can observe the rotation speed of the vane 304 through the observation window 302 to determine the liquid flow rate. The top cover 305 seals the hollow shell 301 to prevent liquid from flowing out from the top of the hollow shell 301, thus enabling the monitoring of the equipment flow rate. This allows personnel to clearly and intuitively observe the liquid flow rate, improving the practicality of the equipment.
