[0025] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] A non-destructive installation pressure measuring device for a rifle gas chamber comprises a sensor fixing seat 1, a positioning device, and a sensor 5. The sensor 5 is used to test the pressure of the gas chamber.

[0027] The sensor holder 1 is cylindrical, and the rear end of the sensor holder 1 is used to extend into the gas hoop 8 of the rifle and abut against the piston 9 for positioning and sealing. The inner hole at the rear end of the sensor holder 1 is an air chamber, and an air inlet is provided at the bottom of the rear end of the sensor holder 1. The air inlet of the sensor holder 1 is connected with the air chamber. When the rear end of the sensor holder is extended into the rifle and positioned with the gas hoop through the regulator limit seat (i.e., in the installed state), the air inlet of the sensor holder 1 is connected with the air hole on the barrel 6 of the rifle, and the gas hoop 8 is also provided with an air hole for gas to pass through.

[0028] A positioning connector is provided at the front end of the sensor holder 1. The cross-section of the connector is "U"-shaped. The outer diameter of the "U"-shaped circle of the positioning connector is larger than the outer diameter of the rear end of the sensor holder, forming a boss. The boss of the positioning connector is axially positioned between the gas hoop 8 and the regulator limit seat 7 of the rifle. The inner hole of the positioning connector is a threaded hole, which is connected to the air chamber. The probe end of the sensor 5 is threadedly fitted in the inner hole of the positioning connector.

[0029] The positioning device includes a positioning connecting block 2, a positioning pin 3, and a positioning plate 4. The positioning plate 4 has a cavity. The positioning plate 4 is hollowly mounted on the sensor 5 and the gun barrel 6. A T-shaped groove is provided on the inner side of the bottom of the positioning plate. The T-shaped groove of the positioning plate is used to slide and cooperate with the T-shaped block at the bottom of the regulator limit seat 7 for positioning. The upper ends of the positioning connector and the positioning plate 4 are both provided with support ears. The positioning connecting block 2 is connected to the support ears on the positioning connector and the positioning plate 4 through the positioning pin 3.

[0030] An air hole is provided at one end of the air cavity adjacent to the positioning connector. The diameter of the air hole is smaller than the diameters of the air cavity and the inner hole of the positioning connector. The sensor 5 is axially positioned on the step surface of the inner hole of the positioning connector.

[0031] The gas chamber of the sensor mount 1 has the same specifications as the rifle's regulator's gas chamber. The internal structure of the sensor mount ensures consistent parameters and chamber pressure with the original rifle. This allows for non-destructive installation after the regulator is removed from the rifle. The sensor mount features threaded holes for connection and quick replacement of pressure sensors.

[0032] A method for using a non-destructive installation pressure measurement device for a rifle's gas chamber is disclosed. To use the device, first remove the rifle's regulator, then install the sensor holder 1 onto the gas ring 8, with its rear being held against the piston 9. The regulator limiter 7 is used to limit the front-to-back position. The positioning plate 4 is then installed onto the regulator limiter 7. The positioning plate 4 and regulator limiter 7 are connected via a T-slot. The sensor holder and the positioning plate are then connected using a positioning connection block 2 and a positioning pin 3 to position the device. Finally, the sensor 5 is threadedly installed onto the sensor holder 1 to complete the device installation. After the rifle is loaded and fired, gas enters the sensor holder 1 through the gas port on the barrel 6, allowing the sensor 5 to measure the gas chamber pressure.

[0033] The regulator limit seat is an existing structure of the rifle. In this embodiment, the regulator limit seat is axially limited and can be rotated, and the circumferential position is locked by a pin. The regulator limit seat is uneven in thickness and can be rotated to make way for the regulator of the rifle, so that the regulator of the rifle can be removed. Similarly, other components can be installed and disassembled.

[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above preferred embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not limiting. Although the present invention has been described in detail through the above preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes can be made in form and details without departing from the scope defined by the claims of the present invention.
