Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water meter technology, specifically a dual-channel direct drinking water meter. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of the healthy drinking water market, the demand for piped drinking water systems has increased significantly. Ultrasonic water meters, with their high measurement accuracy, strong water quality adaptability, and high sensitivity, have been widely used in the drinking water field. Currently, household drinking water systems achieve "on-demand metering" through dual-channel water meters, allowing users to view water consumption and quality data in real time. Dual-channel water meters also support large-scale remote meter reading and leakage location.

[0003] Traditional water meter reading windows are usually directly exposed to the environment, or are left exposed due to human negligence in forgetting to cover them with protective covers. After use, dust, cobwebs, or insect eggs easily accumulate, causing contamination and obscuring the scale or display screen, requiring frequent cleaning. In addition, the low temperatures in northern regions during winter may cause the water meter to freeze inside. Traditional full-coverage insulation sleeves require manual binding, which is inefficient, easy to fall off, and not convenient for partial replacement. If damaged, the entire meter needs to be replaced, increasing maintenance costs. Utility Model Content
