Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to a constant temperature detector, in particular to a liquid nitrogen constant temperature detector. BACKGROUND

[0002] The constant temperature detector is a detection tool for measuring the detection accuracy of a temperature sensor, which detects the temperature sensor to be tested and a standard temperature sensor in the same temperature environment, and then compares the measured temperature values of the two to determine the detection accuracy and detection precision of the test piece. The existing constant temperature detector mainly consists of a test tank and a temperature control part. The surface of the test tank is coated with thermal insulation material to avoid interference of the external environment temperature on the test temperature in the test tank. The temperature control part is used to heat or cool the internal temperature of the test tank to obtain a specified test temperature, so as to realize the test of the test piece at any temperature.

[0003] However, the structure has the following defects. On the one hand, although the test tank reduces interference by wrapping thermal insulation material, the external environment still affects the internal temperature of the test tank. The detection precision of the temperature sensor is generally in the range of ±0.1-0.2℃, so that once the temperature in the test tank is slightly disturbed by the external environment, the temperature difference in different areas is easy to occur, which further causes the decrease of the detection accuracy. On the other hand, only relying on the temperature control part to heat or cool the test tank, the temperature control part stops working when the test tank reaches the specified temperature value, and restarts to control the temperature when the temperature change in the test tank is detected. This makes the temperature in the test tank continuously change in a certain temperature range instead of keeping at a constant temperature value, which makes the detection value of the temperature sensor fluctuate, and the temperature sensor cannot be continuously detected in a constant temperature environment, which reduces the detection effect of the temperature sensor.

[0004] Therefore, the existing constant temperature detector has the problems of poor temperature control effect and low detection accuracy. SUMMARY

[0026] The bottom of the lower sealing block 8 is provided with a plurality of extrusion parts 801, the adjacent extrusion parts 801 are separated from each other through a first groove 13, the pressing surface 9 and the limiting surface 10 are respectively located on the inner and outer sides of the extrusion parts 801, and a second groove 14 for the deformation and opening of the extrusion parts 801 can be arranged between the extrusion parts 801 and the annular part 11.

[0027] The outer side of the thermostatic cylinder 4 is provided with an extrusion surface matched with the pressing surface 9.

[0028] The bottom of the cover 2 is annularly provided with a plurality of limiting plates 15, and the plurality of limiting plates 15 are respectively arranged in the first grooves 13 between the extrusion parts 801.

[0029] The constant temperature cylinder 4 comprises an outer cylinder and an inner cylinder, a vacuum area is formed between the outer cylinder and the inner cylinder, the top of the outer cylinder and the inner cylinder are connected with each other through a plurality of sleeves 16, the temperature control element 5, the standard element 6 and the determination element 7 are arranged in the plurality of sleeves 16 respectively, wherein the temperature control element 5 can be a heating pipe, the standard element 6 is a required temperature sensor, the determination element 7 is a temperature sensor for determining the detection accuracy, the lower ends of the temperature control element 5, the standard element 6 and the determination element 7 extend to the inner cylinder, and the upper ends of the temperature control element 5, the standard element 6 and the determination element 7 extend to the outside of the sealing assembly through the constant temperature cylinder 4 in sequence.

[0033] The working principle of the application is as follows: when the application is installed, the operator first places the lower sealing block 8 at the bottom of the installation cavity 3 and makes the first groove 13 and the limiting plate 15 be buckled with each other, then inserts the constant temperature cylinder 4 after vacuumizing into the Dewar jar 1 through the installation cavity 3, and supports the constant temperature cylinder 4 by using the cooperation of the pressure receiving surface 9 and the extrusion surface.

During subsequent disassembly, the operator only needs to pull out the supporting sleeves 18, and then can individually screw out the upper sealing block 12, and then directly pull out the constant-temperature cylinder 4, which is convenient for the operator to disassemble later.

[0035] In use, the liquid nitrogen around the constant-temperature cylinder 4 can cool the constant-temperature cylinder 4, and the temperature control member 5 in the constant-temperature cylinder 4 can heat it, so that the temperature in the inner cylinder can be maintained within a certain temperature value under the cooperation of the two, thereby realizing the temperature accuracy detection of the measuring member 7 in the range of-80℃ to-196℃. At this time, the measuring member 7 to be detected is inserted into the constant-temperature cylinder 4 through the supporting sleeve 18, and the temperature of the inner cylinder is detected, and the detection result of the measuring member 7 is compared with the detection result of the standard member 6, so as to judge whether the measuring member 7 has detection error.
