If the flow rate is far below the minimum flow rate to ensure accuracy, there will be no output (such as vortex flowmeter) or the output signal will be cut off as a small signal (such as differential pressure flowmeter), which is unfavorable and unfair to suppliers. In order to prevent the loss of benefits, for a specific set of thermal energy metering equipment, the supply and demand sides often agree that a certain flow value is the "agreed lower limit flow" according to the flow measurement range and the achievable range, and agree that if the actual flow is less than the agreed value, it will be charged according to the lower limit flow. The metrological administrative department of the people's government at or above the county level may set up metrological verification institutions according to needs, or authorize metrological verification institutions of other units to perform compulsory verification and other verification and testing tasks. Personnel who perform the verification and testing tasks specified in the preceding paragraph must pass the examination. This function is usually realized in the flow display instrument. The metrological administrative department of the local people's government at or above the county level shall, according to the needs of the local area, establish public standard instruments of measurement, which shall be used after passing the examination presided over by the metrological administrative department of the people's government at a higher level. Enterprises and institutions may, as required, establish standards of measurement for their own use, and the highest standards of measurement shall be used after passing the examination presided over by the metrological administrative department of the relevant people's government. Metrological verification shall be carried out on site in accordance with the principle of economy and rationality. Metrological verification must be carried out in accordance with the national metrological verification system table. The national metrological verification system table shall be formulated by the metrological administrative department of the State Council.

It generally takes 1-2 months from patent authorization to certificate. Patents can only be issued after authorization. After authorization, the patent power of attorney will be issued to the patentee, and the patentee can only issue the license after paying the fee. Time is money, this sentence is not just talk. For enterprises, if they compete with competitors for the market, the key to win lies in this patented technology of utility model. Therefore, we are very concerned about the time for granting utility model patents. It takes about 5-8 months from the application for utility model patents to obtaining the authorization certificate, and the time for obtaining the certificate after authorization is usually about 1-2 months. If the patent authorization certificate is received and the payment and registration are not handled in time, the authorization certificate will be delayed for a longer time, and once it exceeds the prescribed time limit, it means giving up. Now patents are not only important for enterprises, but also important for personal evaluation of professional titles. The utility model patent can be used to evaluate middle and senior professional titles, with a relatively high proportion of professional titles. It can be said that the lack of a title of utility model patent evaluation has a great influence on your promotion. As for the utility model patents used to evaluate professional titles, they must also be patents with authorization certificates. Therefore, in order to get the authorized patent certificate faster, friends with professional titles chose to apply for utility model patents without paying fees. In this case, it takes about 1-2 months to receive the certificate after the utility model patent is granted.

The longest examination and authorization time for invention patents is about 30 months, that for utility models is about 10 months, and that for design is about 6 months. According to the laws of our country, after receiving an application for a patent for invention, the patent administrative department of the State Council, after preliminary examination, considers that it conforms to the provisions of this law, and shall publish it after 18 months from the date of application. The patent administration department of the State Council may publish its application at an early date upon the request of the applicant.
