Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of electricity meter installation technology, specifically relating to an electricity meter mounting bracket. Background Technology

[0002] An electricity meter is an instrument used to measure electrical energy and various electrical quantities. Depending on the applicable circuit, it can be divided into DC electricity meters and AC electricity meters. Currently, electricity meters usually need to be fixed with the help of special mounting brackets during installation.

[0003] However, most existing electricity meter mounting brackets are fixed structures. Although they can achieve basic installation functions, they still have obvious shortcomings in actual operation. Due to the wide variety of types and sizes of electricity meters, traditional fixed brackets are difficult to flexibly adapt to the needs of different models, resulting in complicated installation processes, inconvenient operation, poor practicality, and inability to effectively meet the requirements of diverse electricity meter installation scenarios. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides an energy meter mounting bracket, which can flexibly adapt to the needs of various energy meter types and sizes through the coordinated cooperation of the position adjustment mechanism and adjustment components. It is not only convenient to operate and precise to adjust, but also greatly improves versatility and applicability, effectively meeting the actual needs of diverse energy meter installation scenarios.

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides an energy meter mounting bracket, including a mounting frame and a position adjustment mechanism disposed on its front side. The position adjustment mechanism includes a guide groove disposed on the front side of the mounting frame, with sliding blocks slidably connected to both ends of the guide groove. Each sliding block has an adjustment component at its front end. The adjustment component includes swing plates rotatably connected to both outer ends of the sliding blocks. Each swing plate has a movable mounting head at its outer end, and each mounting head has a threaded hole. A synchronization component is provided between two swing plates located on the same sliding block. This design allows for flexible adaptation to various energy meter types and sizes. This bracket design is not only convenient to operate and precise to adjust, but also greatly improves versatility and applicability, effectively meeting the actual needs of diverse energy meter installation scenarios.

[0006] The synchronizing element includes arc-shaped toothed plates respectively disposed on the inner ends of the swing plate. The two arc-shaped toothed plates located on the same sliding block mesh with each other, thus playing the role of synchronous driving.

[0007] The adjustment assembly also includes threaded rods respectively located at the outer ends of the swing plate. The threaded rods are threadedly connected to the mounting heads on the swing plate, thus serving as movable connections.

[0008] The position adjustment mechanism also includes a limiting groove located inside the guide groove. Both ends of the inner cavity of the limiting groove are slidably connected to limiting blocks. Locking bolts are movably inserted into the sockets on the sliding blocks. The locking bolts are threadedly connected to the threaded holes on the adjacent limiting blocks on the same side, thus achieving the function of quick locking.

[0009] The mounting bracket has mounting holes at both ends.

[0010] The axis of the circle containing the arc-shaped toothed plate coincides with the rotation axis of the swing plate it is on, thus ensuring smooth synchronous transmission.

[0011] The cross-section of the limiting groove is T-shaped, which ensures smooth sliding between the structures.

[0012] The beneficial effects of the above-mentioned technical solution of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] 1. First, fix the mounting bracket in the designated installation position through the mounting holes at both ends. Then, adjust the position adjustment mechanism according to the specific specifications and dimensions of the electricity meter to be installed. Before adjustment, loosen the locking bolts to release the friction limit between the sliding block and the guide groove. At the same time, the friction limit between the limit groove and the limit block is also released. Next, move the sliding block and its auxiliary structure to a suitable position. Simultaneously, adjust the swing plate on one side. When the swing plate on this side rotates, the arc-shaped toothed plate at its inner end meshes with the arc-shaped toothed plate on the adjacent swing plate, thereby driving the swing plate on the other side to swing synchronously. The precise synchronous adjustment of the swing angles on both sides is continuously adjusted until the threaded hole on the mounting head at the outer end of the swing plate is accurately aligned with the pre-drilled mounting hole on the electricity meter. Then, the locking bolt is tightened to ensure that the sliding block fits tightly with the guide groove and the limit block abuts against the limit groove, thereby ensuring that the entire adjustment mechanism is firmly positioned and will not shift. Finally, the mounting screw is passed through the pre-drilled hole on the electricity meter and screwed into the threaded hole on the mounting head to complete the stable installation of the electricity meter. This bracket design is not only convenient to operate and precise to adjust, but also greatly improves its versatility and applicability, effectively meeting the actual needs of diverse electricity meter installation scenarios.

[0014] 2. In addition, when faced with electricity meters of different mounting hole diameters or specifications, the original mounting head can be quickly unscrewed and replaced with a new mounting head that is compatible, and then connected and fixed by a threaded rod, so as to flexibly adapt to the needs of various electricity meter types and sizes.

Detailed Implementation

[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the following will be described in conjunction with the appendices of the embodiments of this utility model. Figure 1-4 The technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model are clearly and completely described herein. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the described embodiments of this utility model are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0021] This embodiment provides a mounting bracket for an electricity meter, such as... Figure 1-4 As shown: It includes a mounting bracket 100 and a position adjustment mechanism disposed on its front side. The position adjustment mechanism includes a guide groove 300 disposed on the front side of the mounting bracket 100. Both ends of the guide groove 300 are slidably connected to sliding blocks 301. The front end of each sliding block 301 is provided with an adjustment component. The adjustment component includes swing plates 200 respectively rotatably connected to the outer ends of the sliding blocks 301. The outer ends of each swing plate 200 are movably provided with mounting heads 201. Each mounting head 201 is provided with a threaded hole 202. The two swing plates 200 located on the same sliding block 301 are provided with a synchronizing element. The synchronizing element includes arc-shaped toothed plates 203 respectively disposed on the inner ends of the swing plates 200. The two arc-shaped toothed plates 203 located on the same sliding block 301 are meshed and connected to each other. The axis of the circle in which the arc-shaped toothed plate 203 is located coincides with the rotation axis of the swing plate 200 in which it is located.

[0022] Adjust the position adjustment mechanism according to the specific specifications and dimensions of the electricity meter to be installed. During adjustment, move the position adjustment mechanism and its auxiliary structures to the appropriate position. At the same time, adjust the swing plate 200 on one side. When the swing plate rotates, the arc-shaped toothed plate 203 set at its inner end meshes with the arc-shaped toothed plate on the adjacent swing plate, thereby driving the swing plate on the other side to swing synchronously, achieving precise synchronous adjustment of the swing angle on both sides. Continue adjusting until the threaded hole 202 on the mounting head 201 at the outer end of the swing plate is accurately aligned with the reserved mounting hole on the electricity meter. Then tighten the position adjustment mechanism to ensure that the entire adjustment mechanism is firmly positioned and will not shift. Finally, pass the mounting screw through the reserved hole on the electricity meter and tighten it with the threaded hole 202 on the mounting head 201 to complete the stable installation of the electricity meter. This bracket design is not only convenient to operate and precise to adjust, but also greatly improves versatility and applicability, effectively meeting the actual needs of diverse electricity meter installation scenarios.

[0023] like Figure 2-4 As shown, the adjustment assembly also includes threaded rods 204 respectively disposed at the outer ends of the swing plate 200, and the threaded rods 204 are threadedly connected to the mounting heads 201 on the swing plate 200 respectively.

[0024] When faced with electricity meters of different mounting hole diameters or specifications, the original mounting head 201 can be quickly unscrewed and replaced with a new mounting head that is compatible. The new mounting head can then be connected and fixed using the threaded rod 204, thus flexibly adapting to the needs of various electricity meter types and sizes.

[0025] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the position adjustment mechanism also includes a limiting groove 302 disposed inside the guide groove 300. Both ends of the inner cavity of the limiting groove 302 are slidably connected to limiting blocks 303. Locking bolts 304 are movably inserted into the sockets provided on the sliding blocks 301. The locking bolts 304 are respectively threadedly connected to the threaded holes provided on the adjacent limiting blocks 303 on the same side. The cross-section of the limiting groove 302 is T-shaped.

[0026] Tighten the locking bolt 304 to make the sliding block 301 fit tightly against the guide groove 300, and the limiting block 303 also abuts against the limiting groove 302, thereby ensuring that the entire adjustment mechanism is firmly positioned and will not shift.

[0027] like Figure 1-2 As shown, mounting holes 400 are provided at both ends of the mounting bracket 100 to facilitate the installation and fixing of the mounting bracket 100 and its auxiliary mechanisms.

[0028] The working principle of the electricity meter mounting bracket provided by this utility model is as follows: First, the mounting bracket 100 is fixed in the designated installation position through the mounting holes 400 at both ends. Then, the position adjustment mechanism is adjusted according to the specific specifications and dimensions of the electricity meter to be installed. Before adjustment, the locking bolt 304 is loosened to release the friction limit between the sliding block 301 and the guide groove 300. At the same time, the friction limit between the limiting groove 302 and the limiting block 303 is also released. Then, the sliding block 301 and its auxiliary structure are moved to a suitable position. At the same time, the swing plate 200 on one side is adjusted. When the swing plate on this side rotates, the arc-shaped toothed plate 203 set at its inner end meshes with the arc-shaped toothed plate on the adjacent swing plate, thereby driving the swing plate on the other side to swing synchronously, realizing the precise synchronous adjustment of the swing angle on both sides. The adjustment is continued until the outer end of the swing plate is reached. The threaded hole 202 on the mounting head 201 is accurately aligned with the pre-drilled mounting hole on the energy meter. Then, the locking bolt 304 is tightened to make the sliding block 301 fit tightly against the guide groove 300, and the limiting block 303 also abuts against the limiting groove 302, thereby ensuring that the entire adjustment mechanism is firmly positioned and will not shift. Finally, the mounting screw is passed through the pre-drilled hole on the energy meter and screwed tightly into the threaded hole 202 on the mounting head 201 to complete the stable installation of the energy meter. In addition, when facing energy meters with different mounting hole diameters or specifications, the original mounting head 201 can be quickly unscrewed and replaced with a new mounting head that is compatible, and then connected and fixed by the threaded rod 204 to achieve flexible adaptation to the needs of various energy meter types and sizes. This bracket design is not only convenient to operate and precise to adjust, but also greatly improves versatility and applicability, effectively meeting the actual needs of diverse energy meter installation scenarios.

[0029] Furthermore, it should be noted that, in the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0030] The above description is the preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
