Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flow meter installation technology, and in particular to a quick-release flow meter calibration connector device. Background Technology
[0002] A flow meter is an instrument used to measure the flow rate or total volume of fluids (liquid, gas, or steam), and is widely used in industry, energy, environmental protection, and other fields. It detects parameters such as fluid velocity, pressure, or volume, and converts them into readable signals (such as electrical signals or digital displays) to achieve flow monitoring and management. Based on their measurement principles, they can be classified into various types, including electromagnetic, ultrasonic, and turbine flow meters, and are indispensable key equipment for process control and metering.
[0003] Flow meters are typically installed in industrial piping systems using traditional bolt fixing methods. Specifically, the flow meter is usually connected to the pipe via a flange, and multiple bolts need to be tightened symmetrically during installation to ensure sealing and stability. While this installation method is simple in structure and relatively reliable, it has significant shortcomings in practical use.
[0004] Based on the aforementioned technologies, the applicant's task requires tightening or loosening bolts one by one during installation and disassembly, which is cumbersome and consumes a lot of time and manpower. It is particularly inefficient in situations involving frequent disassembly and assembly. To address these issues, we have introduced a quick-disassembly flowmeter calibration connector device. Summary of the Invention
[0005] This utility model discloses a quick-release flow meter calibration connector device, which aims to solve the technical problem that the installation and disassembly require tightening or loosening bolts one by one, which is cumbersome, time-consuming, and labor-intensive, especially in situations with frequent disassembly and assembly.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A quick-release flow meter calibration connector device includes a measuring tube, a flow meter mounted on the top of the measuring tube, mounting plates fixedly connected to both sides of the measuring tube, and connecting mechanisms at both ends of the measuring tube. Each connecting mechanism includes a positioning component and a connecting component, which cooperate with each other. The positioning component includes a rotating block, which is fixedly connected to one side of the measuring tube in a circumferential array. A positioning plate is rotatably connected inside the rotating block. A pressing plate is fixedly connected to one end of the positioning plate, and a positioning ball is fixedly connected to the bottom of the pressing plate. Threaded grooves are symmetrically formed on the outer side of the measuring tube, and support rings are symmetrically threaded onto the outer side of the measuring tube.
[0007] The connection mechanism allows for quick installation and connection between the flow meter and external pipelines. No external tools or multiple bolts need to be tightened or loosened during installation. The operation is simple and saves manpower and time.
[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the connecting assembly includes sockets arranged in a circumferential array inside the mounting plate. Both ends of the measuring tube are provided with connecting plates. A positioning plate is fixedly connected in a circumferential array to the side of the connecting plate near the measuring tube. One end of the positioning plate is provided with a spherical groove.
[0009] The connecting components use a plug-in method with a positioning plate and a ball groove design, which makes the docking of the connecting plate and the mounting plate more precise and efficient, reduces the time for manual adjustment, and improves the efficiency of disassembly and assembly.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment, two sealing rings are fixedly connected to the sides of the two connecting discs that are close to each other, and two sealing grooves are formed on the sides of the two mounting discs that are far from each other. The sealing grooves and sealing rings cooperate with each other.
[0011] The combined use of the sealing ring and the sealing groove enhances the sealing performance at the connection, prevents fluid leakage, ensures measurement accuracy, and reduces the risk of equipment damage due to poor sealing.
[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the support ring is inclined on the side closest to the positioning plate.
[0013] The inclined design of the support ring allows it to better abut against the positioning plate, improving connection stability, preventing loosening, and making it suitable for vibration and pressure variations under different working conditions.
[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the size of the spherical groove matches the size of the positioning ball, and the spherical groove and the positioning ball are used in conjunction with each other.
[0015] The size matching design of the spherical groove and the positioning ball makes the positioning more accurate, avoids installation deviation, improves docking efficiency, and reduces the problem of sealing failure caused by misalignment.
[0016] In a preferred embodiment, the mounting plate is fixedly connected to an external water pipe.
[0017] The mounting plate is fixedly connected to the external water pipe to ensure the stability of the overall structure, while also facilitating quick adaptation to existing piping systems and improving the versatility and practicality of the device.
[0018] The quick-release flowmeter calibration connector device provided by this utility model has the following advantages: Firstly, the connection mechanism allows for rapid installation and connection between the flow meter and external pipelines. During installation, no external tools are needed, and multiple bolts do not need to be tightened or loosened. The operation is simple, saving manpower and time.
[0019] Secondly, the combined use of the sealing ring and sealing groove enhances the sealing performance at the connection, preventing fluid leakage, ensuring measurement accuracy, and reducing the risk of equipment damage due to poor sealing. The inclined design of the support ring allows it to better abut against the positioning plate, improving connection stability, preventing loosening, and making it suitable for vibration and pressure changes under different working conditions. The size matching design of the spherical groove and the positioning ball makes positioning more precise, avoiding installation deviations, improving docking efficiency, and reducing sealing failure problems caused by misalignment. The mounting plate is fixedly connected to the external water pipe, ensuring the stability of the overall structure, while facilitating quick adaptation to existing piping systems, improving the versatility and practicality of the device.

[0025] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this application described and marked in the accompanying drawings can be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this application provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed application, but merely represents selected embodiments of this application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0026] The quick-release flow meter calibration connector device disclosed in this utility model is mainly used in flow meter installation scenarios.
[0027] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 4 A quick-release flowmeter calibration connector device includes a measuring tube 1, a flowmeter 2 mounted on the top of the measuring tube 1, mounting plates 42 fixedly connected to both sides of the measuring tube 1, and connecting mechanisms at both ends of the measuring tube 1. The connecting mechanisms include a positioning component and a connecting component, which cooperate with each other. The positioning component includes a rotating block 31, which is fixedly connected to one side of the measuring tube 1 in a circumferential array. A positioning plate 32 is rotatably connected inside the rotating block 31. A pressing plate 33 is fixedly connected to one end of the positioning plate 32, and a positioning ball 34 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the pressing plate 33. Threaded grooves 35 are symmetrically opened on the outer side of the measuring tube 1, and support rings 36 are symmetrically threaded onto the outer side of the measuring tube 1. The connecting component includes insertion holes 41, which are circumferentially arranged inside the mounting plates 42. Connecting plates 45 are provided at both ends of the measuring tube 1. A positioning insertion plate 43 is fixedly connected in a circumferential array to the side of the connecting plate 45 closest to the measuring tube 1. A spherical groove 44 is opened at one end of the positioning insertion plate 43.
[0028] In this embodiment, when the quick-release flow meter calibration connector device is working, firstly, the positioning plate 43 of the connecting plate 45 is inserted into the insertion hole 41 of the mounting plate 42, so that the spherical groove 44 and the positioning ball 34 are automatically aligned. Then, the support ring 36 is rotated, so that it moves along the threaded groove 35 and pushes the positioning plate 32, which drives the pressing plate 33 to press the positioning ball 34, so that it is locked into the spherical groove 44. Through the set connection mechanism, the quick-release flow meter can be quickly installed and connected to the external pipeline. During the installation process, no external tools are needed, and multiple bolts do not need to be tightened or loosened. The operation steps are simple, saving manpower and time.
[0029] The above technical solution suffers from the problem that installation and disassembly require tightening or loosening bolts one by one, resulting in cumbersome operation steps, significant time and manpower consumption, and low efficiency, especially in situations involving frequent disassembly and assembly. To address this issue, the specific operation is as follows: Reference Figure 1 - Figure 4 In a preferred embodiment, two sealing rings 5 are fixedly connected to the sides of the two connecting discs 45 that are close to each other, and two sealing grooves 6 are formed on the sides of the two mounting discs 42 that are far from each other. The sealing grooves 6 and the sealing rings 5 cooperate with each other. The support ring 36 is inclined on the side near the positioning plate 32. The size of the spherical groove 44 matches the size of the positioning ball 34, and the spherical groove 44 and the positioning ball 34 cooperate with each other. The mounting disc 42 is fixedly connected to the external water pipe.
[0030] In this embodiment, the combined use of the sealing ring 5 and the sealing groove 6 enhances the sealing performance at the connection, prevents fluid leakage, ensures measurement accuracy, and reduces the risk of equipment damage due to poor sealing. The inclined design of the support ring 36 allows it to better abut against the positioning plate 32, improving connection stability, preventing loosening, and making it suitable for vibration and pressure changes under different working conditions. The size matching design of the spherical groove 44 and the positioning ball 34 makes positioning more precise, avoids installation deviations, improves docking efficiency, and reduces sealing failure problems caused by misalignment. The mounting plate 42 is fixedly connected to the external water pipe, ensuring the stability of the overall structure, and facilitating quick adaptation to existing piping systems, improving the versatility and practicality of the device.
[0031] Working principle: When this quick-release flowmeter calibration connector device is working, first insert the positioning plate 43 of the connecting plate 45 into the insertion hole 41 of the mounting plate 42, so that the spherical groove 44 and the positioning ball 34 are automatically aligned. Then, rotate the support ring 36 so that it moves along the threaded groove 35 and pushes the positioning plate 32, which drives the pressing plate 33 to press the positioning ball 34, so that it is locked into the spherical groove 44, achieving quick locking. The sealing ring 5 is embedded in the sealing groove 6 to ensure the sealing of the connection. When disassembling, rotate the support ring 36 in the opposite direction to release the positioning ball 34, so that the connecting plate 45 and the mounting plate 42 can be easily separated, achieving quick disassembly and assembly.
[0032] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. The substitutions may be replacements of some structures, devices, or method steps, or they may be complete technical solutions. Equivalent substitutions or modifications made based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model should all be covered within the protection scope of this utility model.
