Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of smart water meter maintenance technology, specifically to an optimized installation structure for a smart water meter insulation box. Background Technology

[0002] A smart water meter is a new type of water meter that uses modern microelectronics, modern sensing technology, and smart IC card technology to measure water consumption, transmit water usage data, and settle transactions. Compared with traditional water meters, which generally only have the functions of flow rate collection and mechanical pointer display of water consumption, it is a significant improvement. To prevent damage to smart water meters when used in harsh environments, some smart water meters are equipped with an external insulation box.

[0003] The Chinese utility model patent with authorization announcement number "CN208043158U" is specifically "an intelligent outdoor antifreeze water meter box". It effectively limits the three basic forms of heat transfer: convective heat transfer, conductive heat transfer and radiative heat transfer, avoiding the problem of rapid heat dissipation in traditional structures. Combined with a temperature control heating unit, it effectively improves the water meter's ability to resist cold and cracks.

[0004] While the insulation box in the aforementioned device can protect the smart water meter, it is connected to the water pipe through through holes on both sides of the insulation box. This requires disassembling the smart water meter or installing the insulation box before installing the smart water meter, which makes the installation difficult. Furthermore, when the temperature is too low, it cannot effectively protect the smart water meter inside the insulation box. Therefore, we propose an optimized installation structure for the smart water meter insulation box. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention provides an optimized installation structure for a smart water meter insulation box, which can effectively solve the problems mentioned in the background technology.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: This utility model provides an optimized installation structure for a smart water meter insulation box, including: The frame has a cover plate hinged to its top; a water pipe runs through the inside of the frame, and a smart water meter is installed in the middle of the water pipe. The mounting assembly includes two symmetrical mounting slots at the bottom of the frame, a base plate at the bottom of the frame, two symmetrically distributed sealing plates fixedly connected to the top of the base plate, each sealing plate having an arc-shaped groove at its top, bidirectional threaded rods on both sides of the frame, two symmetrically distributed internal threaded blocks threaded to the outer side of the bidirectional threaded rods, an L-shaped block fixedly connected to the bottom of each of the two internal threaded blocks, and a limiting block fixedly connected to the outer side of the sealing plate, the limiting block having a through limiting hole in the middle; The monitoring components include a temperature sensor mounted on the top of the base plate, and two symmetrically distributed heating plates are installed on the inner wall of the frame.

[0007] Preferably, the outer side of the bidirectional lead screw is movably connected to two symmetrically distributed support blocks via bearings, and the support blocks are fixedly connected to the outer side of the frame.

[0008] Preferably, two symmetrically distributed sliding grooves are provided on the outer side of the frame, and a slider is fixedly connected to the outer side of the internal thread block, and the slider is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove.

[0009] Preferably, the two ends of the bidirectional lead screw are configured with reverse threads, and a rotating block is fixedly connected to both ends of the bidirectional lead screw.

[0010] Preferably, a semi-circular ring is fixedly connected to the opposite surfaces of the two internally threaded blocks, and a sealing strip is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the semi-circular ring.

[0011] Preferably, a controller is installed on the top of the cover plate, and the controller is electrically connected to the temperature sensor and the heating plate.

[0012] Preferably, a display screen is installed on the top of the cover plate, the display screen is electrically connected to the temperature sensor, and a transparent window is provided on the top of the cover plate.

[0013] The technical solution provided by this utility model has the following advantages compared with the known prior art: 1. By setting up installation components, this utility model allows for the installation of the insulation structure of a smart water meter regardless of whether the smart water meter is already installed. The installation process is convenient and quick, without the need to disassemble the already installed smart water meter, which greatly improves the practicality of the smart water meter insulation box.

[0014] 2. By setting up a monitoring component, this utility model ensures that when the temperature inside the insulation box continuously decreases under extreme weather conditions and reaches the set threshold, the controller automatically activates the heating plate to heat the air inside the insulation box. This prevents damage to the smart water meter caused by excessively low temperatures and helps to extend the service life of the smart water meter. Attached Figure Description

[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. 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 embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0019] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments. Example 1:

[0020] Reference Figure 1-5 This is the first embodiment of the present invention, which discloses an optimized installation structure for a smart water meter insulation box, comprising: The frame 1 has a cover plate 2 hinged to the top of the frame 1; a water pipe 5 runs through the inside of the frame 1, and a smart water meter is installed in the middle of the water pipe 5. The mounting component 3 includes two symmetrical mounting grooves 309 at the bottom of the frame 1. The side of the mounting groove 309 away from the bottom of the frame 1 is arc-shaped. The inner wall of the mounting groove 309 is adapted to the outer side of the sealing plate 313. The bottom of the frame 1 is provided with a base plate 303 for sealing the bottom of the frame 1. Two symmetrically distributed sealing plates 313 are fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 303. Both sealing plates 313 have arc-shaped grooves 312 on their tops. Both sides of the frame 1 are provided with bidirectional threaded rods 306. Two symmetrically distributed internal threaded blocks 302 are threaded to the outer side of the bidirectional threaded rods 306. L-shaped blocks 310 are fixedly connected to the bottom of both internal threaded blocks 302. Limiting blocks 314 are fixedly connected to the outer side of the sealing plates 313. Limiting blocks 314 have through-holes 315 in the middle. The position and size of the limiting hole 315 are designed so that when the sealing plate 313 is inserted into place, it can accommodate the vertical part of the L-shaped block 310 to be inserted and locked.

[0021] Specifically, the outer side of the bidirectional lead screw 306 is movably connected to two symmetrically distributed support blocks 301 via bearings. The support blocks 301 are fixedly connected to the outer side of the frame 1 to stably support the bidirectional lead screw 306 and ensure its smooth rotation.

[0022] Specifically, two symmetrically distributed slide grooves 305 are provided on the outer side of the frame 1. A slider 311 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the internal thread block 302. The slider 311 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the slide groove 305 to guide the internal thread block 302 to move horizontally along a predetermined trajectory and prevent it from rotating.

[0023] Specifically, the two ends of the bidirectional lead screw 306 are set with reverse threads, and a rotating block 304 is fixedly connected to both ends of the bidirectional lead screw 306, so that the user can manually drive the bidirectional lead screw 306 to rotate through the rotating block 304. With the reverse threads, when the bidirectional lead screw 306 rotates, the two internal thread blocks 302 move in opposite directions.

[0024] Specifically, a semi-circular ring 307 is fixedly connected to the opposite face of the two internal threaded blocks 302, and a sealing strip 308 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the semi-circular ring 307.

[0025] When the internal threaded block 302 is driven to move towards the center by the bidirectional lead screw 306, the two semi-circular rings 307 move towards the center and eventually splice together to form two complete circular ring structures. These structures tightly cover the outside of the joint between the water pipe 5 and the mounting groove 309 and the arc groove 312 of the sealing plate 313. The sealing strip 308 on the inner wall is compressed to achieve a high-efficiency seal at the joint, preventing cold air and water vapor from entering. Example 2:

[0026] Reference Figure 1-2 and Figure 5 This is the second embodiment of the present invention, which differs from the first embodiment in that: The monitoring component 4 includes a temperature sensor 404 installed on the top of the base plate 303 for real-time monitoring of the internal ambient temperature of the frame 1. Two symmetrically distributed heating plates 403 are installed on the inner wall of the frame 1 for heating the internal space of the frame 1 when needed.

[0027] Specifically, a controller 402 is installed on the top of the cover plate 2. The controller 402 is electrically connected to the temperature sensor 404 and the heating plate 403. A low-temperature threshold is preset in the controller 402. When the temperature sensor 404 detects that the internal temperature of the frame 1 continues to decrease and reaches or falls below the preset threshold, it sends a low-temperature signal to the controller 402. After receiving this signal, the controller 402 issues a control command to start the heating plate 403.

[0028] Specifically, a display screen 401 is installed on the top of the cover plate 2. The display screen 401 is electrically connected to the temperature sensor 404. A transparent window is provided on the top of the cover plate 2 to display the temperature value monitored inside the frame 1 in real time for easy viewing by the user.

[0029] The transparent window allows users to easily view the readings of the smart water meter.

[0030] The remaining structure is the same as that in Example 1.

[0031] The workflow of this utility model is as follows: When installing the insulation box of the smart water meter, align the two mounting slots 309 at the bottom of the frame 1 with the water pipes 5 on both sides of the smart water meter, and push the frame 1 towards the water pipes 5 so that the water pipes 5 enter the mounting slots 309. At this point, align the two symmetrically distributed sealing plates 313 on the top of the base plate 303 with the mounting groove 309 and insert them until the arc-shaped groove 312 on the top of the sealing plate 313 fits against the outside of the water pipe 5. This completes the initial installation of the frame 1.

[0032] The two bidirectional lead screws 306 are rotated by the rotating block 304. The rotation of the bidirectional lead screws 306 causes the two internal thread blocks 302 to move towards the middle under the action of the reverse thread until the L-shaped blocks 310 enter the corresponding limiting holes 315 respectively, thus completing the limiting of the sealing plate 313. At this time, the two sets of semi-circular rings 307 are spliced ​​into two complete rings. The sealing strips 308 on their inner walls are used to seal the connection between the water pipe 5 and the frame 1. When used in extreme weather conditions, the temperature inside the housing 1 continues to drop. When it reaches the set threshold, the temperature sensor 404 sends a low-temperature signal to the controller 402. The controller 402 then controls the heating plate 403 to start, heating the air inside the housing 1 to prevent the smart water meter from being damaged due to excessively low temperature.

[0033] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions will not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the protection scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
