Abstract

A device for measuring liquid volume in a container, wherein the measuring device includes a compression member, which is in sealed connection with a container to be detected, forms a sealed space in the container, and compresses gases in the sealed space under the effect of an external force, and the compressed volume value of the gases is a predetermined value; a pressure detector, which is disposed on the compression member, and configured to measure the pressure values of the gases in the container before and after compression; and a controller. A container and a method for measuring liquid volume in a container is further provided.
