Description

[0001] Presentation device, use and method

[0002] The invention relates to a presentation device according to the preamble of claim 1, a use according to the preamble of claim 9 and a method for actuation according to the preamble of claim 10.

[0003] Flow measurement devices, which comprise a wide variety of components, particularly floats, which can be connected to one another in modules, are sometimes very complex in design. Users are regularly introduced to them via catalogs.

[0004] The disadvantage is that the functions and control elements only work together through on-site demonstrations or only after the flow measuring device has been installed.

[0005] The purpose of this device is to provide a simple and safe presentation device for flow measuring devices.

[0006] The object is achieved by a presentation device for parts of flow measuring devices for flows, in particular liquids, in particular complete flow measuring devices, in particular arranged in a case, comprising a holding device for parts of flow measuring devices, in particular complete flow measuring devices, wherein input parameters assigned to a part of a flow measuring device can be adjusted by means of input means, in particular by means of potentiometers, which can be adjusted corresponding to at least one order of magnitude of the adjustment of the input parameter, and / or output parameters which can be displayed on an output means, in particular

[0007] |Confirmation copy special output screen, wherein at least one actuating device is provided for actuating the movement of a predetermined flow measuring device with electrical actuating means.

[0008] The invention provides a presentation device for parts or complete flow measuring devices for flows through pipes, particularly arranged in a case, with functional sample measuring devices, electrically controllable so that the functionality of the individual components can be verified and demonstrated, particularly suitable as a training device, and suitable for aircraft transport, allowing it to be taken anywhere in the world. The parts of the flow measuring devices can be individually installed on universal connectors, allowing them to be easily adapted to the user. The device enables environmentally friendly pre-testing, so that no superfluous or unsuitable flow measuring devices are installed. The presentation device is, in particular, completely modular.Using a monitor in the lid of the case, all information can be displayed and additional presentations and explanatory videos can be accessed.

[0009] It is advantageous if the output means, in particular the output screen, is arranged on an inner side of a cover of an enclosing device.

[0010] It is advantageous if input devices, in particular potentiometers, are provided for temperature parameters and / or pressure parameters and / or flow parameters. For example, the flow simulation is influenced by turning the flow rate potentiometer. Turning the temperature potentiometer changes the temperature in the display monitor, in particular simulated via a PLC. Turning the pressure potentiometer changes the pressure in the display monitor, in particular simulated via a PLC.

[0011] It is advantageous if a flow measuring device comprises a float that can be driven by an electrical actuation means, in particular a servomotor. The flow measuring principle corresponds, for example, to the float measuring principle. This means that the greater the flow, the higher the float is positioned. The movement of the float is simulated, for example, by a servomotor that moves the float up and down. For example, rods can be provided for this purpose, in particular adapted to different flow monitors, as well as buttons for selecting the flow monitor. By turning the flow rate potentiometer, the servomotor is controlled, which moves the float up and down via a rod and thus simulates the flow.

[0012] It is advantageous if the flow measuring device components can be set up in the holding device in an operating position and folded back into place, particularly into a transport recess, and in particular secured using a magnet. By manually pushing them up or down, the flow monitors can be set up individually or placed in the case. Using, for example, two magnets and a magnetic plate, they are then held securely and releasably in the desired position.

[0013] It is advantageous if the flow measuring device components can be configured using predefined connectors, particularly universal connectors, which can be manufactured using 3D printing. A 3D-printed turn-and-lock system allows the flow monitors to be replaced at any time. Furthermore, the flow monitor can be rotated to any position, even when it is currently operating via electrical impulses.

[0014] It is advantageous if an accumulator element, in particular a battery, and / or an electrical connection is provided as the power supply.

[0015] It is advantageous if the output device is connected to the input devices via electrical connecting cables and / or radio.

[0016] It is advantageous if the control of electrical output units on the output device can be carried out via a PLC. This task is also achieved by using a presentation device for simulating flows in a flow measuring device using electrical and / or mechanical input devices.

[0017] The object is also achieved by a method for actuating a presentation device for parts of flow measuring devices for flows, wherein input parameters assigned to a part of a flow measuring device are each set by means of input means, in particular by means of potentiometers that are set corresponding to at least one magnitude of the adjustment of the input parameter, and / or output parameters that are displayed on an output means, in particular an output screen, wherein at least one actuating device for actuating the movement of a predetermined flow measuring device is actuated by electrical actuating means. The method allows a demonstration of the function of flow measuring devices without an additional fluid connection and is also possible using battery technology without a direct power connection.

[0018] Further features and advantages of the invention emerge from the claims and the following description, in which embodiments of the subject matter of the invention are explained in more detail in conjunction with the drawings.
