[Chinese instrument network meter patent] creative limit, instrumentation invention. Today we introduce a national invention-invented patent—a self-generating water meter based on radio frequency technology. The patent was applied for by the Henan Institute of Engineering and was authorized on December 21, 2016.

Description of the Invention The utility model relates to a water quantity measuring device, in particular to a self-generating water meter based on radio frequency technology.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION With the rapid development of China's economy, the shortage of freshwater resources in China has become increasingly serious and has gradually become a “bottleneck” for sustainable development in China. According to statistics from related departments, China’s per capita water resources have only 2200 cubic meters, and currently China’s three points Two of the large and medium-sized cities are facing water shortages. For example, in Beijing, per capita water resources are less than 300 cubic meters, which is only 1/30 of the world average level, similar to desert countries such as Israel. Facing the severe situation of China’s water resources, how to reduce the actual water consumption of the cities to the minimum required by the society has become a difficult problem for the water resources management department. At present, the conservation of water resources includes two aspects: First, vigorously promote the application of new water-saving technologies; the second is to strengthen the scientific management of water conservation. In a sense, strengthening scientific management of water-saving is the most important task at present. To strengthen the scientific management of water conservation, we must first put scientific management of water conservation into the orbit of legalized management; second, we must accelerate research and development of advanced science and technology and facilitate application. Water Conservation Scientific Management Instrumentation.

The status quo is as follows: Meter charging has always used the method of manual meter reading. The work is very tedious and error-prone. Often, users are owed, late or missing. Water fees and other issues. Therefore, the water meter management department is implementing a prepayment management model. Through the user's payment of water after payment, the phenomena of overpayment, late payment, and missed payment of water fees are fundamentally eliminated, and meter reading, charging, and control are realized in a trinity, which not only saves the cost of human resources, but also strengthens the “water is a commodity”. The concept is conducive to promoting the integrated management of water conservation and water management departments.
