Detailed Implementation

[0027] 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.

[0028] Please see Figures 1-7 This utility model provides an integrated water level gauge, comprising:

[0029] The water level gauge body 1 has a fixed cylinder 2 fixedly installed on the outer bottom of the water level gauge body 1. A connecting wire 3 is connected to the bottom of the water level gauge body 1. One end of the connecting wire 3 passes through the upper part of the fixed cylinder 2 and is connected to a silicon pressure sensor 11. The bottom of the silicon pressure sensor 11 is provided with a pressure guiding hole 12. The silicon pressure sensor 11 includes a water level sensor and a temperature sensor.

[0030] A protective cover 14 is movably fitted onto the outer side of the lower part of the silicon pressure sensor 11. A gear ring 17 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the protective cover 14. A partition plate 15 is movably fitted onto the inner wall of the protective cover 14. A gear 16 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the partition plate 15. The outer side of the gear 16 meshes with the inner teeth of the gear ring 17. A scraper 18 is installed on the top of the gear 16. The gear 16, gear ring 17, and scraper 18 are located within the inner cavity of the protective cover 14. When the protective cover 14 is placed over the end of the silicon pressure sensor 11, the scraper 18 is inserted into the pressure guiding hole 12. Rotating the protective cover 14 can drive the gear ring 17 to rotate. Since the scraper 18 is inserted into the pressure guiding hole 12, the positions of the scraper 18 and the gear 16 are restricted, allowing the gear 16 to rotate and drive the scraper 18 to rotate. This allows the scraper 18 to clean the impurities in the pressure guiding hole 12.

[0031] In this embodiment, a circular hole is provided on the partition plate 15 above the gear 16, and the scraper 18 is located inside the circular hole. The circular hole on the partition plate 15 above the gear 16 allows the scraper 18 to move within the circular hole.

[0032] In this embodiment, the number of gears 16 and scrapers 18 is equal to the number of pressure guide holes 12, and the gears 16 are located directly below the pressure guide holes 12. This facilitates the cleaning of impurities within the pressure guide holes 12.

[0033] In this embodiment, a limiting ring 13 is fixedly sleeved on the lower part of the silicon pressure sensor 11. The lower part of the silicon pressure sensor 11 is provided with an external thread, and the inner wall of the protective cover 14 is provided with an internal thread that matches the external thread. Since the lower part of the silicon pressure sensor 11 is connected to the protective cover 14 by the thread, the protective cover 14 can rotate to the lower part of the silicon pressure sensor 11 to protect it. At the same time, the limiting ring 13 restricts the range of movement of the protective cover 14.

[0034] In this embodiment, a bottom cylinder 4 is movably sleeved at the bottom of the water level gauge body 1, and one end of the connecting line 3 passes through from the bottom side of the bottom cylinder 4.

[0035] In this embodiment, a first connecting ring 5 is fixedly installed on the top of the bottom cylinder 4, and a second connecting ring 6 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the water level gauge body 1. A sleeve 7 is fixedly sleeved on one side of the second connecting ring 6, and a threaded cylinder 8 is fixedly sleeved on one side of the sleeve 7. A threaded rod 9 is threadedly connected to the inner cavity of the threaded cylinder 8, and a fixing plate 10 is connected to one end of the threaded rod 9. By using the sleeve 7, threaded cylinder 8, threaded rod 9, and fixing plate 10 between the water level gauge body 1 and the bottom cylinder 4, it is convenient to limit the rotation of the water level gauge body 1, and prevent the connecting wire 3 from being easily pulled out of the bottom cylinder 4 when it is not needed.

[0036] In this embodiment, the fixing plate 10 is located inside the sleeve 7, and the inner wall of the second connecting ring 6 is fitted with the outer side of the first connecting ring 5.

[0037] In this embodiment, the portion of the connecting wire 3 inside the bottom cylinder 4 is wound around the outside of the fixed cylinder 2. This winding of the connecting wire 3 inside the bottom cylinder 4 around the outside of the fixed cylinder 2 facilitates the storage of the connecting wire 3.

[0038] Working principle: When using this device, rotating the water level gauge body 1 drives the fixed cylinder 2 to rotate inside the bottom cylinder 4, releasing the connecting wire 3 wound around the outside of the fixed cylinder 2. After releasing a certain length of the connecting wire 3, rotating the threaded rod 9 drives the fixed plate 10 to move inside the sleeve 7, pressing the fixed plate 10 tightly against the outer wall of the first connecting ring 5, thus defining the position of the water level gauge body 1. Then, the silicon pressure sensor 11 is placed in the water. The silicon pressure sensor 11 senses the pressure change, and the conversion circuit inside the water level gauge body 1 converts it into a water level value. This enables a high-precision water level gauge that can simultaneously output water level and temperature, suitable for water level change monitoring in various scenarios. Both the temperature sensor and water level sensor on the silicon pressure sensor 11 are original imported sensors using a high-precision 24-bit AD converter.

[0039] Since the lower part of the silicon pressure sensor 11 is connected to the protective cover 14 by threads, the protective cover 14 can rotate to the lower part of the silicon pressure sensor 11 to protect it. At the same time, the limit ring 13 is set to limit the range of movement of the protective cover 14.

[0040] When the protective cover 14 is placed over the end of the silicon pressure sensor 11, the scraper 18 is inserted into the pressure guiding hole 12. By rotating the protective cover 14, the gear ring 17 can be rotated. Since the scraper 18 is inserted into the pressure guiding hole 12, the position of the scraper 18 and the gear 16 is restricted, so that the gear 16 can rotate on its own, driving the scraper 18 to rotate, so that the scraper 18 is in the pressure guiding hole 12, cleaning the impurities in the pressure guiding hole 12.

[0041] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
