Abstract

A camera tunnel for projecting the data display of a water meter contains a mounting device which ensures a positive mounting for all known types of water meter to enable automatic projection of the data display. The camera tunnel can be used with all commercial cameras. USE/ADVANTAGE - Tunnel and built-in camera can be used to record documentary evidence, e.g. of water losses, which is especially important in the water industry. Enables information to be presented in graphical form. Information is acceptable as evidence in court.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Kameratunnel mit ent­ sprechender Haltevorrichtung zum Ablichten der Daten­ anzeige eines Wasserzählers nach Anspruch 1.The invention relates to a camera tunnel with ent speaking holding device for imaging the data display of a water meter according to claim 1.

Der vorgegebene Kameratunnel und dessen eingebaute Kamera sollen der Dokumentation in der Weise dienen, daß Ablichtungen in bestimmter Zeitfolge automatisch erfolgen.The given camera tunnel and its built-in Camera should serve the documentation in such a way that photographs in a certain time sequence automatically respectively.

Es ist bekannt, daß Wasserzähler zum Zwecke der Do­ kumentation mit Fern- und Dokumentationseinrichtungen hergestellt werden. Diese Systeme unterscheiden sich jedoch grundsätzlich von den dargestellten Patent­ ansprüchen und werden nur bei besonderen Erforder­ nissen eingesetzt. Wasserzähler, die der Registrie­ rung für Haushalte etc. dienen, sind mit dieser Aus­ rüstung nicht versehen. Da diese Einrichtung bei herkömmlichen Zählereinrichtungen fehlt, werden die­ se im allgemeinen persönlich abgelesen und hand­ schriftlich notiert.It is known that water meters for the purpose of Do documentation with remote and documentation facilities getting produced. These systems differ  however fundamentally from the patent shown claims and will only apply if there are special requirements nits used. Water meter by the registry serving households etc. are with this off armor not provided. Since this facility at conventional counter devices are missing, the se generally read and hand personally written down.

Das Ablesen des Zählerstandes auf manuelle Weise be­ inhaltet in jedem Falle immer eine gewisse Fehler­ quote. Es entsteht keine juristisch haltbare Doku­ mentation. Wird der Wasserzähler automatisch abge­ lichtet, so entsteht eine Dokumentation, die exakte Zählerstände nachweist und sich in Diagramme umwan­ deln läßt. Dadurch lassen sich z. B. Leckwasserverlu­ ste, die ein besonderes Kriterium in der Wasserwirt­ schaft darstellen, einwandfrei juristisch dokumentie­ ren und beheben.Reading the meter reading in a manual manner always contains a certain error quote. There is no legally valid document mentation. The water meter is automatically switched off clears, a documentation is created that is exact Detect meter readings and turn into diagrams lets deln. This allows z. B. Leakage water loss ste, which is a special criterion in the water management represent the company, perfect legal documentation and fix.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß ein Kameratunnel mit entsprechender Haltevorrich­ tung für alle herkömmlichen Wasserzählertypen, ver­ sehen mit einer handelsüblichen Kamera, auf den ent­ sprechenden Wasserzähler aufgesetzt wird.According to the invention, this object is achieved by that a camera tunnel with a corresponding holding device device for all conventional water meter types, ver see with a commercially available camera, on the ent talking water meter is placed.

Die mit der Erfindung erzielten Vorteile bestehen darin, daß durch den Kameratunnel eine Einrichtung geschaffen wird, die in der Ruhezeit (Nachtzeit) die Daten einer Wasseruhr ablichtet und somit registriert.The advantages achieved with the invention exist in that a facility through the camera tunnel is created which in the rest period (night time) Data from a water meter is photographed and thus registered.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in der Zeichnung dargestellt und wird wie folgt beschrie­ ben:An embodiment of the invention is in the Drawing shown and is described as follows ben:

Fig. 1 zeigt den Kameratunnel, der rund oder eckig sein kann. Die Innenseite ist schwarz be­ legt. Fig. 1 shows the camera tunnel, which can be round or angular. The inside is black.

Fig. 2 zeigt den Stufenaufsatz, der im allgemeinen sich aus Ringen zusammensetzt, so daß die verschiedenen Ringe sich den einzelnen Zäh­ lertypen und -größen anpassen. Fig. 2 shows the step attachment, which is generally composed of rings, so that the different rings adapt to the individual types and sizes.

Fig. 3 zeigt einen eingebauten Spiegel, um das Bild der Zähleranlage über den waagrechten Tunnel­ teil auf die Kamera zu projektieren. Bei senkrechtem Aufsatz des Kameratunnel ent­ fällt der Spiegel. Fig. 3 shows a built-in mirror to project the image of the meter system over the horizontal tunnel part of the camera. The mirror is removed when the camera tunnel is placed vertically.

Fig. 4 zeigt die Beleuchtung des Kameratunnels, um eine Ablichtung zu ermöglichen. Fig. 4 shows the illumination of the camera tunnel, to allow illumination.

Fig. 5 zeigt die Kamera, die das Bild der Datenan­ zeige ablichtet. Als Kamera kann ein Foto-, Film- oder Videogerät verwendet werden. Fig. 5 shows the camera, which shows the image of the data display. A photo, film or video device can be used as the camera.

Fig. 6 zeigt den Wasserzähler, dessen Datenanzeige abgelichtet werden soll. Fig. 6 shows the water meter, the data display of which is to be photographed.
