Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of smart water meter technology, and in particular relates to a smart water meter with pressure monitoring function. Background Technology

[0002] A smart water meter with pressure monitoring function is an advanced metering device that integrates modern sensing technology and Internet of Things (IoT) technology. Its core function is to help users and water supply management departments optimize water resource management and ensure the safety of water supply systems by monitoring water pressure data in real time.

[0003] Traditional smart water meters are usually buried directly in the ground or installed on brackets and walls using bolts. When maintenance is required, it is difficult to quickly disassemble the smart water meter. Furthermore, the bolt installation method is prone to rusting over time, making it even more difficult to disassemble the smart water meter and increasing the risk of stripping the threads, thus increasing the difficulty of disassembly. Therefore, we have proposed a smart water meter with pressure monitoring function. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a smart water meter with pressure monitoring function. By setting up an installation part, specifically, the protective shell can be pulled to quickly remove it, exposing the smart water meter. Then, the pressure rod is pressed down, causing the pressure plate to drive two push rods downward together. The push rods push the fixing buckle into the inner groove. While pressing the two pressure rods simultaneously, the smart water meter is pulled upward, causing the bracket to disengage from the insert block, thus disassembling the smart water meter. This method is simple and convenient to operate, improves the efficiency of subsequent maintenance, and solves the problem that traditional smart water meters are usually directly buried in the ground or installed on brackets and walls with bolts, making it difficult to quickly disassemble the smart water meter when subsequent maintenance is required.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] This utility model relates to a smart water meter with pressure monitoring function, including a mounting plate, on which the smart water meter is mounted, and a pressure monitor is installed inside the smart water meter. It also includes:

[0007] A protective element, installed on the outside of the smart water meter, is used to provide protection for the smart water meter; and

[0008] The mounting part is installed on the front and back of the smart water meter, and the mounting part is used to enable the smart water meter to be quickly installed and removed.

[0009] The pressure monitor is used to monitor the water pressure of the water flow and transmits the data to the cloud platform through low-power communication technologies such as NB-IoT and LoRa.

[0010] Furthermore, the protective part includes a protective shell fitted over the outside of the smart water meter, and a protective cover is provided on the top of the protective shell; and

[0011] A locking assembly, which is mounted on the front and back of the protective housing, is used to secure the protective housing to the mounting plate;

[0012] The protective shell has openings on both the left and right sides to allow the connecting pipes on the smart water meter to extend to the outside of the protective shell.

[0013] Furthermore, the mounting part includes a bracket installed on the outside of the smart water meter, and a positioning frame is positioned and fitted on the outer bottom of the bracket;

[0014] A fixing component, mounted on top of a mounting plate, is used to cooperate with a bracket to secure and fix the smart water meter; and

[0015] The disassembly assembly is mounted on the bracket and is used to release the constraints of the fixing assembly; the positioning frame is mounted on the mounting plate by welding and can limit the bracket to prevent it from moving.

[0016] The bottom of the positioning frame is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting plate. The positioning frame is used to position the smart water meter during installation, and the bracket is used to support the smart water meter.

[0017] Furthermore, the fixing component includes two insert blocks that are inserted into the bottom of the bracket. The bottom of the insert blocks is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting plate. An inner groove is formed inside the insert block. A fixing buckle is slidably connected inside the inner groove. A spring is fixedly connected to the inner side of the fixing buckle. The end of the spring away from the fixing buckle is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the inner groove. The spring is used to store force on the pushed fixing buckle so that the fixing buckle can be reset by elastic force.

[0018] The top outer side of the fixing buckle is sloped, and the bottom outer side of the fixing buckle is flat. After the bracket is inserted into the plug, the fixing buckle will lock and fix the bracket.

[0019] Furthermore, the disassembly assembly includes a fixing block fixedly connected to the bracket, a pressure rod slidably connected inside the fixing block, a pressure plate fixedly connected to the bottom of the pressure rod, and two push rods fixedly connected to the bottom of the pressure plate; the push rods are used to push the fixing buckle into the inner groove, and the push rods contact the outside of the insertion block, thereby pushing the fixing buckle more thoroughly into the inner side;

[0020] The pressure rod is rectangular, which allows the pressure plate to move linearly. The spring is located at the top of the fixing buckle and contacts the inclined surface of the fixing buckle.

[0021] Furthermore, metal plates are fixedly connected to the four corners of the outer side of the protective shell, magnetic blocks are fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom of the protective cover, and reinforcing frames are fixedly connected to the four sides of the bottom of the protective cover; after the protective cover is docked with the protective shell, the reinforcing frames can limit the position of the protective cover, so that the protective cover will not shift.

[0022] When the protective cover plate is docked with the protective shell, the reinforcing frame can position and reinforce the protective cover plate, while the magnetic block contacts the metal sheet and uses the magnetic attraction effect to fix the protective cover plate.

[0023] Furthermore, the locking assembly includes two elastic blocks mounted on the top of the mounting plate, and two triangular protrusions are fixedly connected to both the front and back of the protective shell;

[0024] The elastic block has a protrusion on the side facing the protective shell, and a groove is formed between the two triangular protrusions. The protrusion on the elastic block is adapted to the groove between the two triangular protrusions.

[0025] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0026] 1. This utility model features an installation section that allows for quick disassembly of the protective shell, exposing the smart water meter. The pressure rod is then pressed down, causing the pressure plate to move two push rods downwards together. The push rods then push the fixing clips into the inner groove. Simultaneously pressing the two pressure rods and pulling the smart water meter upwards disengages the bracket from the insert block, allowing for easy disassembly of the smart water meter. This method is simple and convenient, improving subsequent maintenance efficiency.

[0027] 2. This utility model, through the setting of a locking component, specifically, after the smart water meter is installed, the protective shell is placed on the outside of the smart water meter. After the bottom of the protective shell contacts the top of the mounting plate, the elastic block rebounds and resets under its own weight, causing the protrusion to enter the groove between the two triangular protrusions, thereby locking and fixing the protective shell. Finally, the protective cover plate is inserted into the top of the protective shell through the bottom reinforcing frame, thereby protecting the smart water meter and reducing the impact on the smart water meter.

[0039] Please see Figures 1-6As shown, this utility model is a smart water meter with pressure monitoring function, including a mounting plate 1, a smart water meter 11 mounted on the mounting plate 1, a pressure monitor 12 installed inside the smart water meter 11, and further including:

[0040] Protective element 2, installed on the outside of the smart water meter 11, is used to provide protection for the smart water meter 11; and

[0041] Mounting part 3 is installed on the front and back of the smart water meter 11. Mounting part 3 is used to enable the smart water meter 11 to be quickly installed and removed.

[0042] Among them, the pressure monitor 12 is used to monitor the water pressure of the water flow and transmit the data to the cloud platform through low-power communication technologies such as NB-IoT and LoRa.

[0043] The protective part 2 includes a protective shell 21 fitted over the outside of the smart water meter 11, and a protective cover 22 provided on the top of the protective shell 21; and

[0044] Locking assembly 23 is mounted on the front and back of the protective housing 21 and is used to secure the protective housing 21 to the mounting plate 1.

[0045] The protective casing 21 has openings on both the left and right sides to allow the connecting pipe on the smart water meter 11 to extend to the outside of the protective casing 21.

[0046] The mounting part 3 includes a bracket 31 installed on the outside of the smart water meter 11, and a positioning frame 32 is positioned and fitted on the bottom outer side of the bracket 31;

[0047] Fixing component 33 is mounted on the top of mounting plate 1 and is used to cooperate with bracket 31 to secure and fix smart water meter 11; and

[0048] Disassembly component 34 is mounted on bracket 31 and is used to release the restriction of fixing component 33.

[0049] The bottom of the positioning frame 32 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting plate 1. The positioning frame 32 is used to position the smart water meter 11 during installation, and the bracket 31 is used to support the smart water meter 11.

[0050] The fixing component 33 includes two plugs 331 that are inserted into the bottom of the bracket 31. The bottom of the plugs 331 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting plate 1. An inner groove 332 is opened inside the plugs 331. A fixing buckle 333 is slidably connected inside the inner groove 332. A spring 334 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the fixing buckle 333. The end of the spring 334 away from the fixing buckle 333 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the inner groove 332.

[0051] The top of the outer side of the fixing buckle 333 is set with an angle, and the bottom of the outer side of the fixing buckle 333 is set with a flat surface. After the bracket 31 and the insert block 331 are inserted, the fixing buckle 333 will lock and fix the bracket 31.

[0052] The disassembly assembly 34 includes a fixing block 341 fixedly connected to the bracket 31. A pressure rod 342 is slidably connected inside the fixing block 341. A pressure plate 343 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the pressure rod 342. Two push rods 344 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the pressure plate 343. Pull the protective shell 21 to quickly disassemble it, exposing the smart water meter 11. Then press the pressure rod 342 down, causing the pressure plate 343 to drive the two push rods 344 to move downward together. The push rods 344 push the fixing buckle 333 into the inner groove 332. While pressing the two pressure rods 342 at the same time, pull the smart water meter 11 upward, causing the bracket 31 to disengage from the insert block 331. The smart water meter 11 can then be disassembled. This method is simple and convenient to operate, improving the efficiency of subsequent maintenance.

[0053] The pressure rod 342 is rectangular, which allows the pressure plate 343 to move linearly. The spring 334 is located at the top of the fixed buckle 333 and contacts the inclined surface on the fixed buckle 333.

[0054] Metal plates 211 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the outer side of the protective shell 21, magnetic blocks 221 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom of the protective cover 22, and reinforcing frames 222 are fixedly connected to the four sides of the bottom of the protective cover 22.

[0055] When the protective cover 22 is connected to the protective shell 21, the reinforcing frame 222 can position and reinforce the protective cover 22, while the magnetic block 221 contacts the metal sheet 211 and uses the magnetic attraction effect to fix the protective cover 22.

[0056] The locking assembly 23 includes two elastic blocks 231 installed on the top of the mounting plate 1. The protective shell 21 has two triangular protrusions 232 fixedly connected to both the front and back. After the smart water meter 11 is installed, the protective shell 21 is put on the outside of the smart water meter 11. After the bottom of the protective shell 21 contacts the top of the mounting plate 1, the elastic blocks 231 rebound and reset under their own weight, so that the protrusions enter the groove between the two triangular protrusions 232, thereby locking and fixing the protective shell 21. Finally, the protective cover plate 22 is inserted into the top of the protective shell 21 through the bottom reinforcing frame 222, thereby protecting the smart water meter 11 and reducing the impact of the smart water meter 11.

[0057] The elastic block 231 has a protrusion on the side facing the protective shell 21, and a groove is formed between the two triangular protrusions 232. The protrusion on the elastic block 231 is adapted to the groove between the two triangular protrusions 232.

[0058] One specific application of this embodiment is:

[0059] In use, first install the mounting plate 1 onto the ground or wall using bolts. After installation, connect the smart water meter 11 to the positioning frame 32 via the bracket 31, and insert the plug 331 into the bracket 31. When the bracket 31 contacts the fixing buckle 333, it pushes the fixing buckle 333 into the inner groove 332, and the spring 334 is compressed, allowing the bracket 31 to pass smoothly through the fixing buckle 333. When the bracket 31 moves to the bottom of the fixing buckle 333, the fixing buckle 333 pops out under the elastic action of the spring 334, locking and fixing the bracket 31 and preventing it from detaching. This completes the installation of the smart water meter 11. Then connect the water pipes to both ends of the smart water meter 11. Finally, put the protective shell 21 on the outside of the smart water meter 11. The triangular protrusion 232 on the bottom of the protective shell 21 will engage with the protrusion on the elastic buckle 231. Touch and push the elastic block 231 so that the bottom of the protective shell 21 can smoothly contact the top of the mounting plate 1, completing the installation of the protective shell 21. At this time, the elastic block 231 rebounds and resets under its own weight, so that the protrusion enters the groove between the two triangular protrusions 232, thereby locking and fixing the protective shell 21. Finally, the protective cover plate 22 is inserted into the top of the protective shell 21 through the bottom reinforcing frame 222. At this time, the magnetic block 221 moves to the top of the metal plate 211 and fixes the protective cover plate 22 by magnetic attraction, completing the sealing. This is used to protect the smart water meter 11 and reduce the impact of the smart water meter 11. The smart water meter 11 model (such as NB-IoT smart water meter) adopts an intermittent detection mode, which only activates the pressure monitor 12 when there is water flow or when a command is received, thereby monitoring the water pressure to reduce energy consumption and extend the equipment life.

[0060] When the smart water meter 11 and pressure monitor 12 need to be inspected or maintained, the protective shell 21 is pulled to quickly remove it, exposing the smart water meter 11. Then, the pressure rod 342 is pressed down, causing the pressure plate 343 to drive the two push rods 344 to move downward together. After the push rods 344 contact the fixing buckle 333, the fixing buckle 333 is pushed into the inner groove 332, thereby releasing the restriction of the bracket 31. Then, while pressing the two pressure rods 342 at the same time, the smart water meter 11 is pulled upward, causing the bracket 31 to disengage from the insert block 331, so that the smart water meter 11 can be disassembled, which is convenient for subsequent maintenance and other work. This method is simple, convenient and more efficient.
