Abstract

The present invention refers to a security seal with tamper evident means for water meters, which is characterized in that it comprises two pieces coupled therebetween by an attaching system including frangible fasteners located at the opposite sides of each piece and a semicircular recess placed on the adjacent opposite surfaces thereof, said surfaces generating a cavity that houses a connector located between the meter and a piping. The attaching system comprises breakable tabs attached to the edge of the opposite walls of each piece by a frangible line with at least a rib at the inner or outer surface thereof, the aforementioned attaching system further presenting cavities located at the opposite edge of each piece, the cavities simultaneously having inner stopping means where the frangible tab ribs are attached thereto upon the coupling thereof, thereby generating a permanent coupling.

Description

SAFETY SEAL FOR MEASURING MEASURES WITH UNDIABLE HANDLING INDICATOR MEDIA FIELD OF THE INVENTION present is related to the means and devices used for the assurance and protection against possible violations of various accessories More specifically aeejaa seal of safety for meters with means indicators of tampering BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1 It is known that there are seals known as seals for water protection, but said seals do not protect sufficiently since they can be opened and can be attached to the oadse means giving the In fact, they have not been treated with undue and unsuspected ma oculation of water. Many of the seals can be applied to heat by softening the plastic material. They can be opened and closed. Others can break at key points and stick with an adhesive. A security seal that allows the prot ection of water meters that adequately protects them and that is also tampering or undue violations and that has not been extensively repaired in accordance with the OBJECTIVES OF THE INVENTION. Its main objective is to make soon seal of water meters that indicators The purpose of this invention is to allow said seal to be safe for water meters which also allows cements of said water meters of the prese inecc P is to make available security d se c for water meters. Water that in addition to the medium to medium temperature is allowed to seal said gauges for which it is also highly resistant to impacts and at the same time fragile at the key points as indicators of tampering or of such a seal. with means of indicators of tampering that also ensures the assurance of the meters Theft and benefits of the present may be apparent from the study of the following description and the accompanying drawings for purposes of illustration only and not BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The seal of tamper-proof media meters consists in a very short time. in two cores that can be assembled together, a medium of a system of angles in the corresponding oojestos caca a reba or semicircular in opposing adjacent faces generate a cavity that houses and protects the measuring coefficient and the pipe In another form of the two pieces they have a box shape as the walls define an internal cavity and secure coupling in corresponding opposite side walls of each piece and a semicircular recess in the other corresponding opposite walls of each in their coupling generate a cavity that protects the meter pipeline us frangible insurance fixation system in its preferred mode Away consists of breakable tabs joined at the edge of each piece through one and the same in the internal space and preferably at each side and each cavity made in the corresponding opposite edge of each with internal means of stop where said cepes are engargolan in their generating permanent collection B breakable chasms can be understood on both sides single fish and the complementary piece ce in both opposite acs corresponding said paths of housing and capture of said tabs D enos fixation of insurance requests that the seal be opened so it is forced to self and destroying said tabs through its frangible lines of union to the forming parts of the seal of man if being tampered with as once or c cseo is not possible rejoining that is to say coupling sayings can not be rejoined by any means as it does not support any susta adhesive bond and heat The components The seo allow a great resistance to impacts which allows a great durability has not been attempted to violate Seal of security is made of virgin polyethylene of 12 degrees of Because dicno seal of security is by injection treated s ce 5 seconds or having two pieces in cold cast in the C and whose insurances guaranteeing a maximum accuracy in the To understand the characteristics of the invention is present as an integral part of the d with illustrative but not limitative character that are described below BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS Figure 1 shows a conventional perspective of the unattached water meter seal Figures 2 and 3 illustrate a top view and a bottom view respectively of one of the parts that conform to said seal for water meters Figure 4 shows a front of one of the pieces that make up said safety seal for water meters 5 a cross section of one of the parts that make up or seal of safety for gauges in the fg J a 3 6 is a front of a seal of safety is water in process of coupling The f gura an onal perspective of said seal of water sedated aac a pipe of an understanding of the invention will be followed by a detailed description of some of the modalities shown in the drawings, which for illustrative purposes are not appended to the present description. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION deta is characteristic of the seal of for indicator media meters of tampering is clearly set forth in the following description and in the accompanying illustrative drawings by using the same signs to indicate the m parts referred to. Referring to FIG. 1 which shows a stamp perspective of for non-d cna meters. The safety seal for measuring instruments for improper handling indicators consists of parts and 2 which are not a box shape whose Penmetric grids define an internal ca 3 and comprising coupling 4 on opposite side walls 5 co of each part 1 and 2 and a semicircular recess 7 on the opposite front walls 8 and rear corresponding to each part Said fastening system for coupling locks 4 in its modality consists of rupturable tongues 10 joined in etce of opposite lateral aredes 5 each piece through a nail 1 1 and with a rib on internal face 12 and a rib on the external one and two cavities 14 practiced on the wall opposite side 6 of each piece 1 and with internal stop means where ribs 12 of said breakable tabs 10 in their generating a permanent coupling reference to the figure said respective cavities 14 in the opposite side wall 6 through wall to wall Figure 15 refers to the figure each piece internally comprises 15 less two reinforcement ribs 16 that give it greater impact resistance Figure 4 shows a front view of a piece of water that forms a water seal. In the figure, each piece comprises the beam 10 attached at the edge of a side wall 5 aaves from aa frangible 1 a tra es of the which said breakable tongue is detached or tampered with or a force is exerted trying to violate the seal to in turn violate the water meter which shows the action indicating the existence of a manipulation said breakable tongue 10 comprises the rib on the external face 12 and rib on the external 13 H aciendo reference to figure 5 that illustrates a cross section of one of the pieces that conform to said seal of for meters in the line shown in figure 3 in figure is appreciated the cavity path 14 practiced in a rack 6 with internal stop means 17 where ribs 12 of said breakable tabs 10 are engaged in their collection see figures 1 and generating a coupling? e r a n e n t e e t In this connection, the rupturable tongues 10 tend to be inserted through said paths for the assembly of both pieces 1 and 2 in the seal information. The semicircular dichcs ebaos are opposed to the opposite walls. and subsequent 9 of each piece generate a cavity 18 that houses and protects connector between the medidor and the pipe Referring to figure 7 illustrating a conventional perspective of said safety seal for water meters installed in a tap pipe of drinking water In said safety figures 19 formed the coupled parts 1 and 2 are mounted covering and guarding the connector between the meter 20 and the pipe avoiding access to said connector and therefore the violation of this E nv etchas described sufficiently so that a person with means in the art can reproduce and obtain results in the present invention which Any person skilled in the art who is the subject of the present invention may be able to make modifications not described in the present application that for the purpose of these modifications in a given structure, a part of it is required of the aa bait in The following claims will be considered to be within the scope of the insufficient OCRQuality
