Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of temperature sensing display technology, and in particular to an external temperature control sensing status display device. Background Technology
[0002] In scenarios such as external temperature control monitoring of industrial equipment, real-time display of temperature control data, early warning of abnormal ambient temperature, visualization of equipment temperature control status, and convenient on-site temperature control status display, external temperature control sensing status display devices are often needed to accurately control the temperature measurement accuracy, response speed, display clarity, installation convenience, and operational stability.
[0003] Existing external temperature control sensing status display devices have significant shortcomings in terms of intuitiveness of status display, ease of disassembly and assembly, and operational safety. In the process of displaying temperature control status, they usually use flashing warnings such as embedded sound and light alarms to remind staff of temperature control status such as water temperature. This warning method is relatively simple and not intuitive enough. Staff need to observe closely to catch the warning signal, and they are prone to missing status reminders due to visual fatigue, environmental interference, and other factors. They cannot quickly and clearly grasp the real-time temperature control situation. They cannot use a quick-detachable and removable external temperature-sensitive color-changing component to display the temperature control status in real time and intuitively through color changes.

[0025] To make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0026] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the invention. However, the invention may also be practiced in other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the invention. Therefore, the invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0027] Secondly, the term "one embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments.
[0028] Example 1, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 This is the first embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment provides an external temperature control sensing status display device, which includes an installation component 1 and an external component 2.
[0029] By employing a collaborative design of component 1 and external component 2, this system effectively addresses the shortcomings of existing external temperature control sensing status display devices, such as unintuitive status display, poor ease of disassembly and assembly, and insufficient operational safety. On one hand, it abandons the outdated method of a single embedded sound and light flashing warning, adding a quickly detachable external temperature-sensitive color-changing component. The color change of this component provides real-time and intuitive display of the temperature control status, eliminating the need for close observation by staff and preventing missed status alerts due to visual fatigue or environmental interference. This allows staff to quickly and clearly grasp the real-time temperature control situation. On the other hand, the optimized disassembly and assembly structure enables quick separation and disassembly of the temperature-sensing component, facilitating flexible replacement and maintenance according to usage needs. This enhances the convenience and visualization of the status display. Furthermore, a temperature-linked self-locking protection mechanism is added, automatically locking the disassembly mechanism after heating, preventing accidental disassembly when the temperature is higher than room temperature and the equipment is still operating. This prevents equipment damage, temperature control data distortion, and burns from high-temperature components, eliminating operational safety hazards.
[0030] Specifically, the installation component 1 includes a support ring 11, a connecting block 14 is fixed to the outside of the support ring 11, and an external arc-shaped ring 12 is fixed to one side of the connecting block 14.
[0031] Specifically, the external component 2 is set on the top of the mounting component 1, including a temperature sensing ring 21 set on the top of the support ring 11, a temperature sensing element 22 fixed on one side of the temperature sensing ring 21, a snap-fit element 24 fixed on the surface of the temperature sensing ring 21, and a positioning element 23 sleeved on the surface of the snap-fit element 24.
[0032] Example 2, refer to Figures 2-5 This is the second embodiment of the present invention, which is based on the previous embodiment.
[0033] Specifically, the bottom of the support ring 11 is fixed with a screw hole plate 13, and the surface of the support ring 11 is provided with a first insertion groove 15 that cooperates with the snap-fit member 24.
[0034] The support ring 11 provides rigid support for the overall structure, and the screw hole plate 13 is used for the fixed installation of the support ring 11, which facilitates connection and fixation with external equipment or foundation structure; the first insertion slot 15 and the snap-fit part 24 are precisely matched to realize the snap-fit positioning of the support ring 11 and the temperature sensing ring 21, ensuring that the connection between the two is firm and not easy to loosen.
[0035] Specifically, the temperature sensing element 22 includes a temperature-sensitive deformable metal strip 223 fixed to one side of the temperature sensing ring 21, and a thermosensitive color-changing metal plate 221 fixed to one side of the temperature-sensitive deformable metal strip 223.
[0036] The temperature sensor 22 is the core component of temperature sensing. The temperature-sensitive deformable metal strip 223 can deform according to temperature changes, converting heat energy into mechanical driving force. The thermosensitive color-changing metal plate 221 changes color with temperature, realizing intuitive visualization of temperature status and making it easy for staff to quickly judge the temperature range.
[0037] Specifically, a second insertion slot 224 is provided at the bottom of the thermochromic metal plate 221.
[0038] The second insertion slot 224 is used to cooperate with the positioning member 23 to achieve precise docking between the positioning member 23 and the thermochromic metal plate 221. After the thermochromic metal plate 221 is displaced, the positioning member 23 will lock the snap-fit member 24 to ensure that it cannot be disassembled when the temperature is higher than a certain range.
[0039] Specifically, a telescopic rod 222 is fixed to one side of the thermochromic metal plate 221, and the telescopic rod 222 is fixed to the surface of the temperature sensing ring 21.
[0040] The telescopic rod 222 provides support and guidance for the thermochromic metal plate 221, restricts its movement trajectory, and prevents it from shifting or jamming when the temperature sensor deforms. At the same time, it adapts to the deformation displacement of the thermochromic metal plate 221, ensuring the overall structural stability of the temperature sensor 22.
[0041] Specifically, the snap-fit component 24 includes a fixing seat 241 fixed to the surface of the temperature sensing ring 21, a first slide rod 242 slidably connected to the inner wall of the fixing seat 241, and a plug rod 245 fixed to one side of the first slide rod 242.
[0042] The snap-fit component 24 is used to realize the detachable snap-fit connection between the temperature sensing ring 21 and the support ring 11. The fixed base 241 provides a sliding guide for the first slide rod 242. The first slide rod 242 drives the insertion rod 245 to extend and retract, which facilitates the insertion rod 245 to dock or separate from the first insertion slot 15.
[0043] Specifically, a first limiting block 243 is fixed to one side of the plug rod 245, and a first spring 244 is sleeved on the surface of the first limiting block 243. The first spring 244 is fixed to one side of the first limiting block 243 and the fixing seat 241 respectively.
[0044] The first limiting block 243 restricts the sliding limit stroke of the first slide rod 242 to prevent it from coming out of the fixed seat 241; the first spring 244 provides elastic preload force so that the plug rod 245 always tends to be inserted into the first plug groove 15, ensuring a firm engagement and facilitating manual unlocking and separation.
[0045] Specifically, the positioning component 23 includes a fixing sleeve 231 sleeved on the surface of the plug rod 245, and a support rod 232 is fixed on the surface of the fixing sleeve 231.
[0046] Specifically, a connecting horizontal plate 233 is fixed to the top of the support rod 232, and a second sliding rod 234 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting horizontal plate 233.
[0047] The connecting plate 233 connects the support rod 232 and the second slide rod 234, providing a sliding guide for the second slide rod 234. The second slide rod 234 can slide along the inner wall of the connecting plate 233 to adapt to the deformation and displacement of the temperature sensor 22, thereby achieving flexible adjustment of the positioning position and ensuring accurate positioning.
[0048] Example 3, referring to Figures 2-5 This is the third embodiment of the present invention, which is based on the first two embodiments.
[0049] Specifically, a second limiting block 236 is fixed to the bottom of the second slide bar 234, and a second spring 235 is sleeved on the surface of the second slide bar 234.
[0050] During use and installation, align the temperature sensing ring 21 with the support ring 11 and press it down. The plug rod 245 of the snap-fit part 24 slides outward under the pressure of the outer arc ring 12, and the first spring 244 is stretched. When the plug rod 245 moves to the position of the first plug slot 15, the first spring 244 releases its elastic force, pushing the plug rod 245 to automatically extend and snap into the first plug slot 15, thus completing the quick snap-fit and fixation of the temperature sensing ring 21 and the support ring 11. The entire installation requires no tools and is simple and quick to operate.
[0051] When the equipment is running normally and the temperature is within a safe range, the temperature-sensitive deformable metal strip 223 maintains its initial shape, and the thermochromic metal plate 221 displays a normal temperature color, visually indicating that the equipment temperature is normal. At this time, the second slide bar 234 and the second insertion slot 224 are separated, and neither the snap-fit part 24 nor the positioning part 23 is locked. The operator can pull the insertion rod 245 outward to release the lock and easily remove the temperature sensing ring 21 from the support ring 11 for easy maintenance and replacement.
[0052] When the equipment temperature rises above the set threshold, the temperature-sensitive deformable metal strip 223 undergoes directional deformation due to heat, pushing the thermochromic metal plate 221 outward. The color of the thermochromic metal plate 221 changes significantly with the increase in temperature, and the abnormal temperature state can be clearly identified from a distance. At the same time, the thermochromic metal plate 221 presses against the second slide rod 234 of the positioning member 23, causing the second slide rod 234 to slide downward along the connecting horizontal plate 233. The second spring 235 is stretched, and the bottom end of the second slide rod 234 is precisely inserted into the second insertion groove 224 of the thermochromic metal plate 221.
[0053] After the second slide bar 234 is inserted, the support rod 232 and the fixing sleeve 231 form a rigid mechanical lock on the plug rod 245, making the plug rod 245 unable to move and completely locking the snap-fit part 24. At this time, the operator cannot press to unlock it, and the temperature sensing ring 21 and the support ring 11 remain fixedly connected and cannot be disassembled. Only when the equipment temperature drops back to the safe range, the temperature-sensitive deformation metal strip 223 cools and resets, driving the thermosensitive color-changing metal plate 221 back to its original position, and the second spring 235 pulls the second slide bar 234 out of the second plug slot 224, and the lock is automatically released, can the normal disassembly function be restored.
[0054] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
