繼續參閱圖3及圖4,該感測單元14的整體在本實施例中例如被實施為一塊獨立的電路板,且該感測單元14是可動地設置在該基板113上,並位於該基板113與該下蓋體111之間。藉此,當該錶頭監測裝置1與該錶頭5結合時,該感測單元14的該等感測元件142是如圖1所示地與該錶頭5的錶面52彼此相間隔相對。更具體地說,該感測單元14是如圖4所示地被該連接件12所穿設,且該連接件12還一併穿設該基板113上的滑槽117,藉此,該感測單元14是透過該連接件12的穿設而被可動地設置在該基板113朝向該下蓋體111的一側。該連接件12在本實施例中例如被實施為一根與該滑槽117尺寸相配合的螺栓,但並不以此為限。Continuing to refer to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 , the whole of the sensing unit 14 is implemented as a separate circuit board in the embodiment, and the sensing unit 14 is movably disposed on the substrate 113 and located on the substrate. 113 is between the lower cover 111 and the lower cover 111. Thereby, when the meter monitoring device 1 is combined with the meter head 5, the sensing elements 142 of the sensing unit 14 are spaced apart from each other by the surface 52 of the meter head 5 as shown in FIG. More specifically, the sensing unit 14 is disposed by the connecting member 12 as shown in FIG. 4, and the connecting member 12 also passes through the sliding slot 117 on the substrate 113. The measuring unit 14 is movably disposed on a side of the substrate 113 facing the lower cover 111 through the insertion of the connecting member 12. In the present embodiment, the connecting member 12 is embodied, for example, as a bolt that fits the size of the sliding slot 117, but is not limited thereto.

如圖4所示的,藉由該連接件12與該滑槽117的配合,該感測單元14能與該連接件12一起相對於該基板113地在一位移方向D(亦即該滑槽117的延伸方向)上往復移動。另一方面,該感測單元14還能以該連接件12為軸心並相對於該基板113地在一旋轉方向R上來回轉動。藉由該感測單元14的可動性,能有利於使該三個感測元件142的位置如圖5所示地與該錶頭5的指針53相對應,並使該感測單元14能藉由該等感測元件142感測該指針53的轉動。As shown in FIG. 4, the sensing unit 14 can be coupled with the connecting member 12 with respect to the substrate 113 in a displacement direction D (ie, the chute) by the cooperation of the connecting member 12 and the sliding slot 117. The direction of extension of 117 is reciprocated. On the other hand, the sensing unit 14 can also rotate back and forth in a rotation direction R with respect to the substrate 113 with the connecting member 12 as an axis. By the movability of the sensing unit 14, the position of the three sensing elements 142 can be facilitated to correspond to the pointer 53 of the meter head 5 as shown in FIG. 5, and the sensing unit 14 can be borrowed. The rotation of the pointer 53 is sensed by the sensing elements 142.

補充說明的是,由於該殼體單元11在本實施例中是透明的,所以,即便該下蓋體111位於該感測單元14與該指針53之間(可參閱圖3),該感測單元14仍能透過該下蓋體111感測該指針53的轉動。另外,在其他實施例中,該殼體單元11並不一定要完全透明,而也可例如是使用能透光的半透明材質所製成,或者,該殼體單元11也可以是只有該下蓋體111為透明或半透明,總而言之,只要是該感測單元14能透過該下蓋體111感測該指針53轉動的態樣即可實施,而不以本實施例為限。It is to be noted that, since the housing unit 11 is transparent in this embodiment, even if the lower cover 111 is located between the sensing unit 14 and the pointer 53 (refer to FIG. 3), the sensing is performed. The unit 14 can still sense the rotation of the pointer 53 through the lower cover 111. In addition, in other embodiments, the housing unit 11 does not have to be completely transparent, but may be made of, for example, a translucent material that can transmit light, or the housing unit 11 may be only the lower one. The cover body 111 is transparent or translucent. In general, as long as the sensing unit 14 can sense the rotation of the pointer 53 through the lower cover body 111, it is not limited to the embodiment.

首先,如圖6A所示,該指針53具有一自轉端部531,以及一由該自轉端部531朝該自轉端部531之徑向延伸的指示端部532。該自轉端部531是位於該指針53轉動時的軸心處,而該指示端部532在該指針53轉動時會沿著一個圓形的封閉軌跡C移動。並且,該三個感測元件142分別對應於該錶頭5之錶面52上的三個感測位置P,該等感測位置P皆位於該封閉軌跡C以內並且分布於該指針53的轉動路徑上。更具體地說,該等感測位置P是分布在該指針53之自轉端部531的周圍,並且在該自轉端部531的徑向上彼此交錯,換句話說,該指針53在轉動的過程中只會逐一地經過每一個感測位置P,而不會同時到達其中兩個或以上的感測位置P。補充說明的是,該等感測元件142與該指針53在位置上的對應關係並不以本實施例的態樣為限,具體來說,該等感測元件142與該指針53的相對位置關係只要能使該指針53在轉動一整圈的過程中會逐一經過每一個感測位置P即可實施,舉例來說,圖6B示出了該等感測位置P相對於該指針53的另一種可行的分布方式。First, as shown in FIG. 6A, the pointer 53 has a rotation end portion 531, and an indication end portion 532 extending from the rotation end portion 531 toward the radial direction of the rotation end portion 531. The rotation end portion 531 is located at the axial center when the pointer 53 is rotated, and the indication end portion 532 moves along a circular closed track C as the pointer 53 rotates. Moreover, the three sensing elements 142 respectively correspond to three sensing positions P on the surface 52 of the meter head 5, and the sensing positions P are all located within the closed track C and distributed in the rotating path of the pointer 53. on. More specifically, the sensing positions P are distributed around the rotation end portion 531 of the pointer 53, and are staggered with each other in the radial direction of the rotation end portion 531, in other words, the pointer 53 is in the process of rotation. Only one sensing position P is passed one by one, and two or more sensing positions P are not simultaneously reached. It should be noted that the positional correspondence between the sensing elements 142 and the pointers 53 is not limited to the embodiment, and specifically, the relative positions of the sensing elements 142 and the pointers 53 The relationship can be implemented as long as the pointer 53 can pass through each of the sensing positions P one by one during the rotation of a full circle. For example, FIG. 6B shows the sensing position P relative to the pointer 53. A feasible distribution method.

同時參閱圖2、圖5及圖6A,在本實施例中,當該控制電路141透過每一感測元件142判斷出該指針53到達該感測元件142所對應的該感測位置P時,該控制電路141會輸出一對應該感測元件142的感測信號至該處理單元15。為了便於說明,在此將該三個感測元件142分別作為圖2及圖5中所示出的一第一感測元件142A、一第二感測元件142B及一第三感測元件142C,並將該三個感測位置P分別作為圖6中一對應該第一感測元件142A的第一感測位置P1、一對應該第二感測元件142B的第二感測位置P2,以及一對應該第三感測元件142C的第三感測位置P3。更具體地說,當該控制電路141藉由該第一感測元件142A判斷出該指針53到達該第一感測位置P1時,輸出一對應該第一感測元件142A的第一感測信號至該處理單元15。另一方面,當該控制電路141藉由該第二感測元件142B判斷出該指針53到達該第二感測位置P2時,輸出一對應該第二感測元件142B的第二感測信號至該處理單元15。再一方面,當該控制電路141藉由該第三感測元件142C判斷出該指針53到達該第三感測位置P3時,則輸出一對應該第三感測元件142C的第三感測信號至該處理單元15。Referring to FIG. 2, FIG. 5 and FIG. 6A, in the embodiment, when the control circuit 141 determines that the pointer 53 reaches the sensing position P corresponding to the sensing component 142 through each sensing component 142, The control circuit 141 outputs a pair of sensing signals to the sensing element 142 to the processing unit 15. For convenience of description, the three sensing elements 142 are respectively used as a first sensing element 142A, a second sensing element 142B and a third sensing element 142C as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. And the three sensing positions P are respectively taken as a first sensing position P1 of the first sensing element 142A in FIG. 6 , a second sensing position P2 of the second sensing element 142B, and a Corresponding to the third sensing position P3 of the third sensing element 142C. More specifically, when the control circuit 141 determines that the pointer 53 reaches the first sensing position P1 by the first sensing component 142A, it outputs a pair of first sensing signals that should be the first sensing component 142A. To the processing unit 15. On the other hand, when the control circuit 141 determines that the pointer 53 reaches the second sensing position P2 by the second sensing component 142B, it outputs a pair of second sensing signals corresponding to the second sensing component 142B to The processing unit 15. On the other hand, when the control circuit 141 determines that the pointer 53 reaches the third sensing position P3 by the third sensing component 142C, it outputs a pair of third sensing signals that should be the third sensing component 142C. To the processing unit 15.

該處理單元15會根據該感測單元14感測的結果判斷該指針53轉動的方向及圈數。具體而言,該處理單元15是根據接收到該等感測信號的順序判斷該指針53轉動的方向。以圖6A舉例來說,若該處理單元15是依序地接收到該第一感測信號、該第二感測信號及該第三感測信號,則代表該指針53是依序地經過了該第一感測位置P1、該第二感測位置P2及該第三感測位置P3,因此,該處理單元15能判斷出該指針53轉動的方向為順時針方向(在此作為本實施例中的一第一方向),補充說明的是,若該處理單元15是依序地接收到該第二、第三及第一感測信號,或者是依序地接收到該第三、第一及第二感測信號,則該處理單元15亦會判斷出該指針53轉動的方向為該第一方向。另一方面,若該處理單元15是依序地接收到該第三感測信號、該第二感測信號及該第一感測信號,則代表該指針53依序地經過了該第三感測位置P3、該第二感測位置P2及該第一感測位置P1,因此,該處理單元15能判斷出該指針53轉動的方向為逆時針方向(在此作為本實施例中的一第二方向),補充說明的是,若該處理單元15是依序地接收到該第二、第一及第三感測信號,或者是依序地接收到該第一、第三及第二感測信號,則該處理單元15亦會判斷出該指針53轉動的方向為該第二方向。值得一提的是,藉由該等感測元件142與該指針53的相對位置關係,本實施例的該處理單元15才能根據該感測單元14感測的結果判斷出該指針53轉動的方向。The processing unit 15 determines the direction and the number of turns of the pointer 53 according to the result sensed by the sensing unit 14. Specifically, the processing unit 15 determines the direction in which the pointer 53 rotates in accordance with the order in which the sensing signals are received. For example, if the processing unit 15 sequentially receives the first sensing signal, the second sensing signal, and the third sensing signal, the pointer 53 is sequentially passed. The first sensing position P1, the second sensing position P2 and the third sensing position P3, therefore, the processing unit 15 can determine that the direction in which the pointer 53 rotates is clockwise (herein the embodiment) In a first direction, it is added that if the processing unit 15 sequentially receives the second, third, and first sensing signals, or sequentially receives the third and first And the second sensing signal, the processing unit 15 also determines that the direction in which the pointer 53 rotates is the first direction. On the other hand, if the processing unit 15 sequentially receives the third sensing signal, the second sensing signal, and the first sensing signal, the pointer 53 sequentially passes the third sense. The measurement position P3, the second sensing position P2, and the first sensing position P1, therefore, the processing unit 15 can determine that the direction in which the pointer 53 rotates is a counterclockwise direction (here as a first embodiment in this embodiment) In the second direction, the processing unit 15 sequentially receives the second, first, and third sensing signals, or sequentially receives the first, third, and second senses. When the signal is measured, the processing unit 15 also determines that the direction in which the pointer 53 rotates is the second direction. It is to be noted that the processing unit 15 of the embodiment can determine the direction in which the pointer 53 rotates according to the result sensed by the sensing unit 14 by the relative positional relationship between the sensing elements 142 and the pointer 53. .

並且,在該處理單元15判斷出該指針53的轉動方向恆固定(例如恆為該第一方向)的前提下,該處理單元15會根據其本身在一起始時間點之後接收到該第一感測信號、第二感測信號及/或該第三感測信號的次數來判斷該指針53轉動的累積圈數。該起始時間點可例如是一計費周期中的起點(例如是當前月份的第一日),但並不以此為限。舉例來說,若該處理單元15於該起始時間點後共接收到該第一感測信號十次,則代表該時針於該起始時間點後共經過該第一感測位置P1十次,因此,該處單元會據以判斷出該指針53於該起始時間點後已經轉了十圈。Moreover, on the premise that the processing unit 15 determines that the rotation direction of the pointer 53 is constant (for example, the first direction), the processing unit 15 receives the first feeling after the start time point according to itself. The number of times of the measurement signal, the second sensing signal, and/or the third sensing signal is used to determine the cumulative number of turns of the pointer 53. The starting time point may be, for example, a starting point in a billing cycle (for example, the first day of the current month), but is not limited thereto. For example, if the processing unit 15 receives the first sensing signal ten times after the starting time point, it means that the hour hand passes through the first sensing position P1 ten times after the starting time point. Therefore, the unit will judge that the pointer 53 has been rotated ten times after the start time point.

並且,當該處理單元15判斷出一第一條件符合時,該處理單元15根據該指針53在一統計期間內所累積的轉動圈數產生一累積用量,並將該累積用量經由該通訊單元13輸出至一雲端伺服器。在本實施例中,該第一條件例如包含該指針53轉動的方向於該統計期間內恆為該第一方向,且當前的時間到達一預定時間,但不以此為限。具體來說,該預定時間可例如是該計費周期中的一終止時間點(例如是當前月份的最後一日),而該統計期間例如是從該起始時間點至該終止時間點為止的期間,但並不以此為限。並且,在本實施例中,該錶頭5是以水錶錶頭為例,因此該累積用量在本實施例中例如是一累積用水量,此外,該雲端伺服器可例如是作為一歸屬於自來水供應機構的水費計算伺服器,但並不以此為限。Moreover, when the processing unit 15 determines that a first condition is met, the processing unit 15 generates a cumulative amount according to the number of rotations accumulated by the pointer 53 during a statistical period, and uses the cumulative amount via the communication unit 13 Output to a cloud server. In this embodiment, the first condition includes, for example, the direction in which the pointer 53 rotates for the first direction during the statistical period, and the current time reaches a predetermined time, but is not limited thereto. Specifically, the predetermined time may be, for example, an end time point in the charging period (for example, the last day of the current month), and the statistical period is, for example, from the starting time point to the ending time point. During the period, but not limited to this. Moreover, in the embodiment, the meter head 5 is exemplified by a water meter head. Therefore, the cumulative amount is, for example, a cumulative water consumption in the embodiment. In addition, the cloud server can be, for example, a tap water. The water fee calculation server of the supply organization, but not limited to this.

另外,當該處理單元15判斷出一第二條件符合時,該處理單元15產生一警示通知,並將該警示通知經由該通訊單元13輸出至該雲端伺服器。在本實施例中,該第二條件例如包含該指針53轉動的方向為相反於該第一方向的該第二方向,也就是該錶頭5的指針53發生倒轉的異常現象,但並不以此為限。In addition, when the processing unit 15 determines that a second condition is met, the processing unit 15 generates an alert notification, and outputs the alert notification to the cloud server via the communication unit 13. In this embodiment, the second condition includes, for example, the direction in which the pointer 53 rotates is opposite to the second direction of the first direction, that is, the abnormality of the pointer 53 of the meter head 5 is reversed, but This is limited.

補充說明的是,在本實施例中,該處理單元15及該通訊單元13是被共同實施為獨立於該感測單元14的另一塊電路板,並且是如圖3所示地位於該基板113與該上蓋體112之間。另外,本實施例的該錶頭監測裝置1例如是透過電池供電而運作,然而,在其他實施例中,該錶頭監測裝置1亦能例如透過市電或者太陽能供電運作,而不以本實施例為限。並且,該錶頭監測裝置1可以選擇性地電連接一顯示螢幕,或者是更進一步地包含該顯示螢幕,以藉由該顯示螢幕輸出該處理單元15當前所判斷出的累計圈數及/或該警示通知。It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the processing unit 15 and the communication unit 13 are jointly implemented as another circuit board independent of the sensing unit 14, and are located on the substrate 113 as shown in FIG. Between the upper cover 112 and the upper cover 112. In addition, the meter monitoring device 1 of the present embodiment operates, for example, through battery power. However, in other embodiments, the meter monitoring device 1 can also be operated by, for example, commercial power or solar power, instead of the embodiment. Limited. Moreover, the meter monitoring device 1 can selectively electrically connect to a display screen, or further include the display screen to output the cumulative number of turns currently determined by the processing unit 15 by the display screen and/or The warning notice.

綜上所述,藉由該等感測元件142與該指針53之間的相對位置關係,本實施例的錶頭監測裝置1能根據該感測單元14感測的結果判斷出該指針53轉動的方向及圈數,而達成對該錶頭5自動讀錶的功效,如此一來,便無需以耗力費時的人工方式進行抄表,故確實能達成本新型之目的。In summary, the head monitoring device 1 of the present embodiment can determine that the pointer 53 is rotated according to the result sensed by the sensing unit 14 by the relative positional relationship between the sensing elements 142 and the pointer 53. The direction and the number of turns, and the effect of automatically reading the meter on the head 5 is achieved, so that the meter reading is not required in a laborious and time-consuming manner, so the purpose of the novel can be achieved.
