[0036] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0037] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown;
[0038] A measuring scale fixing mechanism according to an embodiment of this utility model includes:
[0039] Measuring scale 1, with graduations on its outer wall along the length direction, is the core component for reading water levels and is used to visually display the water level height.
[0040] A fixing ring 2 is fitted onto the measuring scale 1. At least one fixing ring 2 is installed on the measuring scale 1. Extensions 3 are provided on both sides of the groove of the fixing ring 2.
[0041] Threaded post 4 is mounted on one side of extension 3 and passes through the through hole of the other side of extension 3.
[0042] Fastener 5 is connected to threaded post 4. Fastener 5 is used to tighten the groove of fixed ring 2 and fix it to the measuring scale 1. Two fasteners 5 are provided on threaded post 4 and the two fasteners 5 are in contact with each other.
[0043] The fixing part 6 is connected to the fixing ring 2 through the adjusting mechanism 7. The fixing part 6 is used to fix the measuring scale 1 in place, and the adjusting mechanism 7 is used to vertically level the measuring scale 1.
[0044] By adopting the above technical solution, the scale on the measuring scale 1 can intuitively display the water level. The fixing ring 2, through the extension parts 3 on both sides, in conjunction with the threaded post 4 and two fasteners 5 that are in contact with each other, can quickly tighten the groove to firmly fix the fixing ring 2 and the measuring scale 1, preventing slippage and ensuring reliable positioning. The fixing part 6 is connected to the fixing ring 2 through the adjustment mechanism 7, which can vertically level the measuring scale 1 to ensure the accuracy of the reading. The overall structure takes into account both the stability of the installation and the flexibility of the leveling, making it easy to operate and effectively improving the accuracy of water level measurement, adapting to the needs of different installation scenarios.
[0045] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the adjustment mechanism 7 includes:
[0046] An extension column 71 is fixedly installed on a fixing ring 2, and a threaded tube 72 is rotatably installed on the extension column 71.
[0047] The threaded rod 73 is installed in conjunction with the threaded tube 72. A connecting shaft 74 is provided on the threaded rod 73, and the connecting shaft 74 and the threaded rod 73 form a T-shaped structure.
[0048] The fixed base 75 is installed on the fixed part 6, and the connecting shaft 74 is rotatably connected to the shaft hole of the fixed base 75;
[0049] In this embodiment, rotating the threaded tube 72 can conveniently drive the threaded rod 73 to extend and retract. With the rotational connection between the T-shaped connecting shaft 74 and the shaft hole of the fixed seat 75, the relative angle and distance between the fixed ring 2 and the fixed part 6 can be flexibly adjusted to achieve precise vertical leveling of the measuring scale 1. The rotational cooperation between the T-shaped connecting shaft 74 and the fixed seat 75 ensures that the leveling process is smooth and without jamming. The overall structure makes the adjustment operation simple and efficient, ensuring that the measuring scale 1 is always in a vertical state and improving the accuracy of water level measurement.
[0050] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a locking element 76 is installed on the threaded rod 73, and the locking element 76 is in contact with the threaded tube 72.
[0051] The outer walls of both the threaded rod 73 and the locking element 76 are designed as regular polygonal structures.
[0052] In this embodiment, the locking member 76 on the threaded rod 73 is in contact with the threaded tube 72. After the measuring scale 1 is leveled, the locking member 76 can be tightened to prevent the relative rotation of the threaded tube 72 and the threaded rod 73 from causing the leveling position to shift, thus ensuring the stability of the vertical state. The regular polygonal structure of the outer wall of the threaded rod 73 and the locking member 76 makes it easy to quickly tighten or loosen with a wrench, improving the convenience of operation and avoiding loosening due to vibration or other factors after leveling.
[0053] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, such as Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the measuring scale 1 includes:
[0054] The scale body 11 is designed as a hollow structure, and a water inlet groove is provided at the bottom of the scale body 11.
[0055] The float 12 is located inside the hollow structure of the scale body 11. An extension rod 13 is coaxially mounted on the float 12, and an indicator 14 is mounted on the extension rod 13. The indicator 14 cooperates with the size scale to display the water level depth.
[0056] The transmission mechanism 15 is installed on the scale body 11 and is used to trigger an alarm when the water level exceeds the set height.
[0057] In this embodiment, the scale body 11 of the measuring scale 1 is designed as a hollow structure with a water inlet at the bottom, allowing external water to enter smoothly and causing the float 12 to rise and fall with the water level. The float 12 drives the indicator 14 to move synchronously through the extension rod 13. The indicator 14 and the scale of the scale body 11 are matched to display the water level depth intuitively and accurately. Compared with the traditional method of directly observing the water level and the scale, the convenience of observation is improved. The transmission mechanism 15 alarms in time when the water level exceeds the set height, realizing active early warning of water level abnormalities, avoiding the lag of manual monitoring, and improving measurement stability.
[0058] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, such as Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the transmission mechanism 15 includes:
[0059] Mounting cap 15a is installed on the top of scale body 11 by thread engagement. Mounting cap 15a is provided with vent holes and anti-slip structure on the outer wall of mounting cap 15a.
[0060] Displacement sensor 15b is mounted on mounting cap 15a. Displacement sensor 15b is used to monitor the distance from indicator dial 14. Displacement sensor 15b is electrically connected to external water level monitoring equipment.
[0061] In this embodiment, the mounting cap 15a of the transmission mechanism 15 is installed on the top of the scale body 11 by threaded connection, which is convenient for disassembly and maintenance. Its anti-slip structure on the outer wall improves the ease of operation. The vent can balance the internal air pressure of the scale body 11 and avoid the air pressure affecting the lifting accuracy of the float 12. The displacement sensor 15b is installed on the mounting cap 15a and can accurately monitor the distance between it and the indicator 14. It transmits the water level change data to the external monitoring equipment in real time, realizing the automated remote monitoring of the water level. Combined with the intuitive display of the indicator 14 and the size scale, it takes into account both on-site reading and remote early warning functions, and improves the intelligence of water level monitoring.
[0062] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the fastener 6 is provided with multiple assembly holes, and the assembly holes are designed as elongated slot structures.
[0063] In this embodiment, the multiple elongated slot assembly holes on the fastener 6 can flexibly adapt to the spacing of the fixing points in different installation positions. When installing the measuring scale 1, it is not necessary to strictly align the holes. The installation position of the fastener 6 can be easily adjusted by adjusting the allowance of the elongated slots, thus improving the installation flexibility.
[0064] The measuring scale fixing mechanism of this utility model can be used in various types of water level monitoring equipment;
[0065] Compared with existing measuring scale fixing mechanisms, the measuring scale fixing mechanism of this utility model significantly improves installation stability through the precise leveling of the adjusting mechanism 7 and the anti-loosening design of the locking part 76. At the same time, the float 12 and the indicator dial 14 of the measuring scale 1, together with the transmission mechanism 15, take into account both intuitive reading and remote monitoring functions. The overall structure is more adaptable to the needs of diverse water level monitoring scenarios.
[0066] The above are all preferred embodiments of this utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape and principle of this utility model should be covered within the scope of protection of this utility model.
