Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of electrical measurement, and in particular to an easy-to-install electricity meter. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of electricity metering, electricity meters are key equipment, and their ease of installation, stability, and protection performance directly affect the accuracy of electricity metering and the service life of the equipment.

[0003] The standard installation steps for an electricity meter are as follows: Place the meter box firmly against the wall at the designated installation location; then use a spirit level to ensure the box is level. Mark the drilling positions on the wall using a pencil or marker, following the mounting holes on the back panel of the box. At the marked positions, use an impact drill and a drill bit of appropriate diameter to drill the mounting holes. Clean up any dust and debris generated during drilling. Insert the expansion tubes from the expansion screw kit into the drilled wall holes, ensuring they are fully embedded. Align the mounting holes on the back panel of the meter box with the expansion tubes on the wall. Pass the matching screws through the mounting holes on the back panel of the meter box and screw them into the expansion tubes. Use a screwdriver or wrench to tighten all screws evenly and gradually, ensuring the meter box is firmly, flat, and securely fixed to the wall without any wobbling. Finally, use the matching screws to secure the meter to the mounting plate inside the meter box.

[0004] Electricity meters are usually located at a high position. When installing the electricity meter inside the computer meter box, it is necessary to reach out to operate it. At the same time, the electricity meter box is usually only slightly larger than the electricity meter. In this case, the space around the electricity meter is relatively narrow, making it inconvenient to install it using the matching screws. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this application provides an energy meter that is easy to install.

[0006] This application provides an easy-to-install electricity meter, which adopts the following technical solution: An easy-to-install electricity meter includes a base, a support mechanism, a fixing mechanism, and a protective mechanism. The base is mounted on a wall and is detachably connected to the wall. The support mechanism is mounted on the base and is detachably connected to the base. The fixing mechanism is mounted on the support mechanism and is detachably connected to the support mechanism. The protective mechanism is mounted on the base and is detachably connected to the base.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the base is detachably connected to the wall to achieve the fixed installation of the electricity meter on the wall. The support mechanism is installed on the base and is detachably connected to the base to achieve its own fixation on the base. At the same time, it provides an installation foundation for the fixing mechanism, supporting the fixing mechanism and the electricity meter. The fixing mechanism is installed on the support mechanism and is detachably connected to the support mechanism to fix the electricity meter on the support mechanism, preventing the electricity meter from loosening or shifting during use. The protective mechanism is installed on the base and is detachably connected to the base to cover the outside of the electricity meter, providing protection for the electricity meter and preventing external factors from damaging the electricity meter, while not affecting the observation of the electricity meter reading.

[0008] Preferably, the protective mechanism includes a protective cover, the top surface of which is an arc-shaped top surface. Grooves are provided at the connection between the upper side of the protective cover and the arc-shaped top surface. Water-absorbing cotton is provided in the grooves, and an inclined drain port is provided on the protective cover at the water-absorbing cotton location.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the heat generated during the operation of the electricity meter can continuously collect the internally evaporated gas onto the arc-shaped top surface of the protective cover, which will then form a water flow that flows to the groove. At this point, the water is absorbed by the absorbent cotton to prevent secondary evaporation. In addition, if a large amount of steam is generated, it can be discharged automatically through the set drain port, improving the safety performance of use.

[0010] Preferably, the base has threaded holes at its four corners, and countersunk screws are inserted into the threaded holes at the four corners. The screws are threaded to the wall to fix the position of the base. The base is provided with parallel slide rails, which are fixedly connected to the base and slidably connected to the support mechanism.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the base is connected to the wall threaded by countersunk screws at the four corners, which fixes the entire electricity meter to the wall and provides installation support. The base is equipped with parallel slide rails that slide with the support mechanism, which facilitates the installation, disassembly and position adjustment of the support mechanism.

[0012] Preferably, the support mechanism includes a frame, anti-loosening nuts, and screws. The frame is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the electricity meter. Each frame has a threaded hole. Each frame on both sides has a screw that is threadedly connected to the threaded hole. Each screw on both sides is threaded with an anti-loosening nut, which is attached to the outer end face of the frame on both sides.

[0013] Preferably, the lower ends of both sides of the support mechanism are provided with support plates, and both sides of the support plates and the corresponding frame are provided with threaded holes. Screws are provided in the corresponding threaded holes, and the screws are threadedly connected to the threaded holes.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the frame is symmetrically set on both sides of the electricity meter. The lower support plate is fixed with screws to support the weight of the electricity meter and prevent it from falling. The screws on the frame are connected to the threaded holes. With the help of anti-loosening nuts, the tightness and installation position of the electricity meter can be adjusted to ensure that it is stable and does not shake. Through the sliding connection with the base slide rail, the support mechanism and the base can be detached and installed, which is convenient for overall assembly and disassembly.

[0015] Preferably, the fixing mechanism includes adjusting bolts and pressure plates. Pressure plates are provided at all four corners of the electricity meter. The pressure plates are fixedly connected to the adjusting bolts, and the pressure plates are connected to the adjusting bolts and installed on the corresponding support mechanisms. The adjusting bolts are threadedly connected to the support mechanisms.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the pressure plates at the four corners of the electricity meter are connected to the support mechanism by adjusting bolts. Tightening the bolts makes the pressure plates press against the electricity meter to prevent it from loosening or shifting during operation. The adjusting bolts can adjust the pressure of the pressure plates according to the size of the electricity meter or installation requirements, thereby improving installation adaptability.

[0017] Preferably, the protective mechanism includes a protective cover and rubber positioning posts. The rubber positioning posts are installed at the four corners of the protective cover and are fixedly connected to the protective cover. The other end of the rubber positioning post is inserted into the four corners of the corresponding base.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the protective cover covers the outside of the electricity meter, preventing dust, moisture or external impact from damaging the electricity meter, while not affecting the reading. The rubber positioning posts at the four corners are fixedly connected to the base, and the protective cover can be quickly installed and removed without tools, improving the convenience of maintenance.

[0019] Preferably, a shock-absorbing pad is provided between the base and the wall, and the shock-absorbing pad has a through hole corresponding to the threaded hole of the base.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, a shock-absorbing pad is installed between the base and the wall to reduce the impact of vibration on the electricity meter, and it can also act as a certain degree of anti-loosening device, improving the stability of operation and the firmness of fixation.

[0021] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: 1. The base is detachably connected to the wall to fix the electricity meter to the wall. The support mechanism is installed on the base and is detachably connected to the base to fix itself on the base. At the same time, it provides the installation foundation for the fixing mechanism, supporting the fixing mechanism and the electricity meter. The fixing mechanism is installed on the support mechanism and is detachably connected to the support mechanism to fix the electricity meter to the support mechanism to prevent the electricity meter from loosening or shifting during use. The protective mechanism is installed on the base and is detachably connected to the base to cover the outside of the electricity meter, which protects the electricity meter from damage caused by external factors, without affecting the observation of the electricity meter reading.

[0022] 2. The frame is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the electricity meter. The lower support plate is fixed with screws to support the weight of the electricity meter and prevent it from falling. The screws on the frame are connected to the threaded holes. With the help of the anti-loosening nuts, the tightness and installation position of the electricity meter can be adjusted to ensure that it is stable and does not shake. The support mechanism and the base can be detached and installed through the sliding connection with the base slide rail, which facilitates the overall assembly and disassembly.

[0027] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figs. 1-3 This application will be described in further detail.

[0028] This application discloses an easy-to-install electricity meter. (Refer to...) Figs. 1-3According to the installation location of the electricity meter, mark the corresponding positions of the four corner threaded holes of the base 1 on the wall. Align the through holes of the shock-absorbing pad 5 with the marked points on the wall. Ensure that the shock-absorbing pad 5 is flat and wrinkle-free by fitting it into the wall through the four corner threaded holes of the base 1. Use countersunk screws 12 to pass through the threaded holes of the base 1 and the through holes of the shock-absorbing pad 5 and connect them to the wall threads. Tighten the four corner countersunk screws 12 evenly to ensure that the base 1 is firm and level. Fix the two side support plates 211 to the threaded holes at the bottom of the frame 21 with screws to form a U-shaped support structure. Align the bottom of the frame 21 with the slide rail 13 of the base 1 and slide it along the slide rail 13 to the appropriate position. Screw the screws 23 into the threaded holes of the two side frame 21. After adjusting to the required installation width of the electricity meter, tighten the anti-loosening nuts 22 to make them fit tightly against the outer end face of the frame 21 and lock the position of the screws 23 to help fix the position of the electricity meter.

[0029] Place the electricity meter stably on the two side support plates 211, ensuring it is centered on the frame 21. Install pressure plates 32 at the four corners of the electricity meter. Screw the adjusting bolts 31 connected to the pressure plates 32 into the corresponding threaded holes of the frame 21 of the support mechanism 2. Tighten the adjusting bolts 31 at the four corners of the pressure plates 32 in sequence to make the pressure plates 32 evenly press the electricity meter casing, ensuring that the electricity meter is not loose. Align the protective cover 41 with the four corners of the base 1 and connect it to the base 1 through the rubber positioning pins 42 with an interference fit. Confirm that the rubber positioning pins 42 at the four corners of the protective cover 41 are firmly installed, ensuring that the protective cover 41 covers the electricity meter. When disassembling, simply pull the protective cover 41 open by overcoming the interference fit. Loosen the adjusting bolts 31 to move or replace the electricity meter. If it is necessary to adjust the position of the support mechanism 2, loosen the anti-loosening nut 22 and slide the frame along the slide rail 13. Unscrew the countersunk screws 12 to remove the base 1 and the auxiliary mechanism as a whole from the wall.

[0030] The protective mechanism 4 includes a protective cover 41, the top surface of which is an arc-shaped top surface. Grooves 411 are provided at the connection between the upper side of the protective cover 41 and the arc-shaped top surface. Water-absorbing cotton 412 is provided in the grooves 411. An inclined drain port 413 is provided on the protective cover 41 at the water-absorbing cotton 412. During the operation of the power meter, the heat generated by the meter itself can continuously collect the gas evaporated inside onto the arc-shaped top surface of the protective cover 41. Then, water will flow to the groove 411, where it will be absorbed by the water-absorbing cotton 412 to prevent secondary evaporation. At the same time, if a lot of steam is generated, it can be discharged by itself through the drain port 413.

[0031] The working principle of the easy-to-install electricity meter in this application is as follows: The frame 21 of the support mechanism 2 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the energy meter. The lower support plate 211 is fixed to the frame 21 with screws, directly bearing the weight of the energy meter and preventing it from falling. The frame 21 is slidably connected to the slide rail 13 of the base 1 through the bottom structure, and its position can be adjusted along the slide rail 13 to adapt to different installation scenarios. After adjustment, the screw 23 on the frame 21 is threaded into the threaded hole and tightened with the anti-loosening nut 22. The position of the frame 21 is locked by friction to prevent shaking. The symmetrical structure of the frame 21 provides support on both sides of the energy meter. Before the fixing mechanism 3 is installed, the energy meter is initially positioned by the support plate 211 and the frame 21 to ensure its installation posture is stable. The pressure plates 32 at the four corners of the energy meter are connected to the base 1 by adjusting bolts 31. The support mechanism 2 is threaded. When the adjusting bolt 31 is tightened, the pressure plate 32 presses down on the outer shell of the energy meter. The axial force of the adjusting bolt 31 generates friction to fix the energy meter on the support mechanism, preventing it from loosening or shifting during operation. The adjusting bolt 31 can be rotated according to the size of the energy meter or installation requirements to change the downward pressure of the pressure plate 32, adapting to different specifications of energy meters and improving installation compatibility. The protective cover 41 covers the outside of the energy meter, blocking external factors such as dust, moisture, and external impacts from damaging the energy meter. At the same time, the transparent material does not affect the observation of the meter reading. The rubber positioning posts 42 at the four corners of the protective cover 41 are interference-fitted with the corresponding positions at the four corners of the base 1, realizing the quick installation and removal of the protective cover 41.

[0032] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
