[0024] In order to illustrate the technical content and structural features of the present invention in detail, the following further description is made in conjunction with the embodiments and with reference to the drawings.

[0025] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, the coaxial probe 100 of the present invention includes a needle tube 10, a current probe 20, a voltage probe 30 and a needle sleeve assembly 40. The current probe 20 is detachably mounted at the first end of the needle tube 10. The needle sleeve assembly 40 is mounted inside the needle tube 10. The voltage probe 30 is detachably mounted on the needle sleeve assembly 40. The voltage probe 30 is telescopically arranged inside the first end of the needle tube 10. The needle sleeve assembly 40 is insulated and connected to the needle tube 10. The current probe 20 and the voltage probe 30 are coaxially arranged. In this way, when either the current probe 20 or the voltage probe 30 is damaged, only the damaged current probe 20 or voltage probe 30 needs to be disassembled and replaced, without scrapping the entire coaxial probe 100, reducing the use cost and waste.

[0026] As Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 7As shown, the coaxial probe 100 of the present invention further includes a voltage needle tube 50 and a first elastic member 60. The voltage needle tube 50 is detachably installed in the needle sleeve assembly 40, and the voltage probe 30 is movably disposed in the voltage needle tube 50. The first elastic member 60 is installed in the voltage needle tube 50 and is disposed between the voltage probe 30 and the voltage needle tube 50. The first elastic member 60 always has a tendency to drive the voltage probe 30 to extend outwards. When the voltage probe 30 is damaged and needs to be replaced, only the voltage needle tube 50 needs to be disassembled, and the disassembly and assembly are simple. Moreover, the voltage needle tube 50 enables the voltage probe 30 to be stably and reliably installed. With the elastic force of the first elastic member 60, the voltage probe 30 is in closer contact with the object to be detected, ensuring normal conduction. For example, the first elastic member 60 is a spring, but is not limited thereto.

[0027] As Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 shown, a first insulator 70 is sleeved outside the first end of the needle sleeve assembly 40, and a second insulator 80 is sleeved outside the second end of the needle sleeve assembly 40. The first insulator 70 and the second insulator 80 are clamped in the needle tube 10, and the needle sleeve assembly 40 and the needle tube 10 are coaxially arranged. The first insulator 70 and the second insulator 80 are used to stably and firmly install the needle sleeve assembly 40 in the needle tube 10, and at the same time, the insulating connection between the needle sleeve assembly 40 and the needle tube 10 is realized. The first insulator 70 and the second insulator 80 are clamped in the needle tube 10 and are not easily loosened or displaced, improving the installation reliability of the needle sleeve assembly 40. Specifically, the needle sleeve assembly 40 includes a mounting needle tube 41 and a connecting member 42. The first end of the connecting member 42 is sleeved inside the second end of the mounting needle tube 41. The first insulator 70 is sleeved outside the first end of the mounting needle tube 41, and the second insulator 80 is sleeved outside the second end of the connecting member 42. The structure of the needle sleeve assembly 40 is simple, which is convenient for the installation of the voltage needle tube 50 and the output circuit. As Figures 1 to 5 , Figure 8As shown, a transfer probe 90 is installed at the first end of the needle tube 10, and the current probe 20 is detachably mounted in the transfer probe 90. The transfer probe 90 facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the current probe 20. Specifically, the transfer probe 90 includes a mounting sleeve portion 91 and a plurality of mounting portions 92 extending outward from one end of the mounting sleeve portion 91. Two adjacent mounting portions 92 are arranged at intervals, and all the mounting portions 92 are arranged together on the mounting sleeve portion 91 to form a circle surrounding the axis of the mounting sleeve portion 91. The free ends of the plurality of mounting portions 92 are close to each other and arranged together, and all the mounting portions 92 enclose an installation space 93. An annular protrusion 11 is provided on the circumference of the first end of the needle tube 10, and the mounting sleeve portion 91 is mounted on the first end of the needle tube 10, and the current probe 20 is installed in the installation space 93. The annular protrusion 11 allows the mounting sleeve portion 91 to be more stably mounted on the needle tube 10, and also strengthens the circuit transmission between the transfer probe 90 and the needle tube 10. The free ends of the multiple sleeve parts 92 are close to each other and gathered together. When the current probe 20 is installed in the installation space 93, the current probe 20 can be stably and reliably clamped by the sleeve part 92, so that the current probe 20 can be stably and firmly installed on the adapter probe 90.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the coaxial probe 100 of the present invention also includes a mounting seat 101 that is slidably mounted on the needle tube 10, a stopper 12 is provided on the outer periphery of the needle tube 10, and a second elastic member 102 is provided between the mounting seat 101 and the adapter probe 90, and the second elastic member 102 always has a tendency to drive the mounting seat 101 away from the adapter probe 90 and to the stopper 12. The mounting seat 101 is provided to facilitate the assembly of the coaxial probe 100 to the machine equipment. The mounting seat 101 is slidably mounted on the needle tube 10, meeting the telescopic adjustment detection needs of the coaxial probe 100. The elastic force of the second elastic member 102 can make the current probe 20 more closely contact the object to be measured, ensuring normal conduction. Preferably, the stopper 12 is an annular step structure, but is not limited thereto. For example, the second elastic member 102 is a spring, but is not limited thereto. Specifically, the mounting seat 101 is provided with a mounting external thread structure 1011, and a mounting nut 103 is screwed on the mounting external thread structure 1011. By adjusting the mounting nut 103, the coaxial probe 100 can be conveniently locked to the machine equipment, and by unscrewing the mounting nut 103, the mounting nut 103 can also be conveniently removed.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 7As shown, the second end of the syringe 10 is provided with an adjustable external thread structure 13, and two locking nuts 104 are screwed onto the adjustable external thread structure 13. A tail connector structure 105 is installed at the second end of the connecting member 42. An electrical component for the output circuit (not shown in the figure) is provided between the two locking nuts 104. By rotating and adjusting the locking nuts 104, the two locking nuts 104 clamp the electrical component, realizing the positioning of the electrical component, which is convenient for stably outputting the current signal detected by the current probe 20. The provided tail connector structure 105 is convenient for outputting the voltage signal detected by the voltage probe 30. Specifically, a plurality of current contact pointed structures 21 are provided on the acting end face of the current probe 20, and a plurality of voltage contact pointed structures 31 are provided on the acting end face of the voltage probe 30. The provided current contact pointed structures 21 and voltage contact pointed structures 31 can effectively pierce the oxide layer on the surface of the object to be detected, reducing the detection resistance between the two and facilitating transmission. For example, the current contact pointed structures 21 and voltage contact pointed structures 31 are arranged in a conical structure, but are not limited thereto. All the current contact pointed structures 21 on the current probe 20 are jointly arranged in a circular ring to obtain multiple-point effective contact with the object to be detected, but are not limited thereto.

[0030] Compared with the prior art, the coaxial probe 100 of the present invention includes a syringe 10, a current probe 20, a voltage probe 30, and a needle sleeve assembly 40. The current probe 20 is detachably installed at the first end of the syringe 10. The needle sleeve assembly 40 is installed inside the syringe 10. The voltage probe 30 is detachably installed on the needle sleeve assembly 40. The voltage probe 30 is telescopically arranged inside the first end of the syringe 10. The needle sleeve assembly 40 is insulated and connected to the syringe 10. The current probe 20 and the voltage probe 30 are coaxially arranged. Thus, when either the current probe 20 or the voltage probe 30 is damaged, only the damaged current probe 20 or voltage probe 30 needs to be disassembled and replaced, without having to scrap the coaxial probe 100 as a whole, reducing the use cost and waste.

[0031] The above-disclosed are only the preferred examples of the present invention and cannot be used to limit the scope of rights of the present invention. Therefore, equivalent changes made according to the claims of the present invention all fall within the scope covered by the present invention.
