[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of air-conditioning installation exploration, and in particular relates to an exploration device for air-conditioning installation. Background Art

[0002] Air conditioner is an air conditioner, which is a device that uses artificial means to adjust and control the temperature, humidity, flow rate and other parameters of the ambient air in a building or structure. At present, most air conditioners need to be fixedly installed in the wall or ceiling. In order not to damage the steel bars, pipes or wires inside, special air conditioner installation exploration equipment is usually required for detection;

[0003] At present, the existing air conditioner installation exploration equipment usually adopts manual handheld ultrasonic exploration instrument or electromagnetic wave exploration instrument for exploration when in use. Although it can realize the exploration of walls or ceilings in the air conditioner installation area, there are still some problems in use. First, when the relevant staff moves the instrument with their hands, due to factors beyond human control, the probe part will inevitably contact the wall or ceiling, and at this time foreign objects or protrusions in the wall or ceiling will cause damage to the probe. Secondly, the probe cannot always maintain a relatively vertical state with the wall or ceiling surface to be explored during exploration, which will lead to a decrease in exploration accuracy. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the utility model provides a survey device for air-conditioning installation, which can prevent foreign objects or protrusions in the wall or ceiling from causing damage to the ultrasonic probe through a sliding mechanism, and can also ensure that the ultrasonic probe remains relatively vertical to the wall or ceiling surface to be surveyed during survey, thereby improving the survey accuracy of the survey device for air-conditioning installation, and can minimize the friction coefficient with the wall or ceiling surface to be surveyed, so that relevant personnel can move more conveniently and smoothly.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides an exploration device for air conditioning installation, comprising a shell and a sliding mechanism arranged on the left surface, an ultrasonic probe is arranged in a mounting hole arranged in the middle of the left side surface of the shell, the sliding mechanism comprises movable plug plates which are respectively movably plugged into the front and rear end plug holes on the left surface of the shell, ball bearings are rotatably connected in ball grooves evenly arranged on the left surface of the movable plug plates, and limit assemblies are arranged in the movable plug plates, the limit assemblies comprise fixed cavities respectively arranged in the middle of the movable plug plates, sliding clamping plates are slidably connected at the upper and lower ends of the fixed cavities, limit clamping ports corresponding to the outer end heads of the sliding clamping plates are arranged at the right ends of the upper and lower walls of the socket, fixed blocks are arranged in the middle of the right wall of the fixed cavity, springs are arranged in the middle of the upper and lower surfaces of the fixed blocks, and the outer ends of the springs are respectively fixedly connected to the sliding clamping plates adjacent to the same side.

[0006] A display is arranged in a mounting groove arranged on the inclined surface of the upper right end of the shell.

[0007] A buzzer is provided at the lower right end of the housing.

[0008] The limit assembly also includes rectangular slots respectively arranged on the left surface of the sliding card; the limit assembly also includes guide rods respectively arranged in the middle of the upper and lower surfaces of the fixed block, and the guide rods are respectively slidably connected to the sliding openings arranged on the right ends of the inner ends of the adjacent sliding card on the same side.

[0009] A single chip microcomputer is arranged in the middle of the inner cavity of the shell, and the buzzer, the display and the ultrasonic probe are all electrically connected to the single chip microcomputer.

[0010] A battery is arranged in the middle of the right wall of the shell, and the single chip microcomputer is electrically connected to the battery.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the above technical solution of the utility model are as follows:

[0012] 1. The relevant staff holds the shell, then aims the ultrasonic probe at the wall or ceiling to be surveyed and gradually moves it toward it until the ball contacts the surface of the wall or ceiling to be surveyed, so that a certain distance is left between the ultrasonic probe and the surface of the wall or ceiling to be surveyed, thereby preventing foreign objects or protrusions in the wall or ceiling from damaging the ultrasonic probe, and also ensuring that the ultrasonic probe remains relatively vertical to the surface of the wall or ceiling to be surveyed during survey, thereby improving the survey accuracy of the survey device for air-conditioning installation. When the staff holds the shell and moves it, the ball can minimize the friction coefficient with the surface of the wall or ceiling to be surveyed, thereby making it more convenient and smooth for the relevant staff to move.

[0013] 2. Relevant staff use the single-chip microcomputer to control the operation of the ultrasonic probe. The transmitting end of the ultrasonic probe sends ultrasonic waves, and the built-in receiving end of the ultrasonic probe receives the returned signal and passes it to the single-chip microcomputer for processing. The single-chip microcomputer analyzes the received signal and determines the internal structure of the wall or ceiling based on the time delay, intensity and reflection characteristics of the signal. The processed data will be displayed on the data display to help installers obtain the structural image of the wall or ceiling. The installers can determine the best installation position of the air conditioner based on the structural image on the display to avoid hitting the steel bars, pipes or wires inside the wall or ceiling during drilling or installation.

[0014] 3. When the ball bearing needs to be replaced after being worn, the relevant staff only needs to move the two adjacent sliding cards in the vertical direction toward each other through the rectangular slot at the same time. The two adjacent sliding cards in the vertical direction will compress the corresponding springs when moving, so that the sliding cards are separated from the corresponding limit cards. At this time, the movable plug plate and its accessories can be taken out, and then the new movable plug plate and its accessories can be replaced according to the above steps. The structure is simple and practical, which is convenient for the relevant staff to fix. At the same time, it is firmly fixed to prevent the movable plug plate from falling.

Based on the described embodiment of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field belong to the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0021] like Figure 1-4 As shown:

[0022] The present embodiment provides an exploration device for air conditioner installation, including a housing 100 and a sliding mechanism arranged on the left surface, an ultrasonic probe 400 is arranged in a mounting opening arranged in the middle of the left side of the housing 100, the sliding mechanism includes a movable plug plate 500 respectively movably plugged into the front and rear end plugs of the left surface of the housing 100, and balls 501 are rotatably connected in the ball grooves evenly arranged on the left surface of the movable plug plate 500, and a limit assembly is arranged in the movable plug plate 500, and the limit assembly includes a plurality of movable plug plates 500 respectively arranged in the middle of the movable plug plate 500. A fixed cavity 600, wherein both upper and lower ends of the fixed cavity 600 are slidably connected with a sliding card plate 601, and the right ends of the upper and lower walls of the socket are provided with limit snap-fit ​​sockets corresponding to the outer ends of the sliding card plate 601, and a fixed block 602 is provided in the middle of the right wall of the fixed cavity 600, and a spring 603 is provided in the middle of the upper and lower surfaces of the fixed block 602, and the outer ends of the spring 603 are respectively fixedly connected with the adjacent sliding card plates 601 on the same side; the limit assembly also includes rectangular slots 604 respectively arranged on the left surface of the sliding card plate 601.

[0023] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a display 700 is provided in a mounting groove provided at the inclined surface of the upper right end of the housing 100 .

[0024] like Figure 3 As shown, a buzzer 800 is provided at the lower right end of the housing 100, and the buzzer 800 can make a sound when a steel bar, a pipe or a wire is detected.

[0025] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a single-chip microcomputer 300 is disposed in the middle of the inner cavity of the housing 100 , and the buzzer 800 , the display 700 and the ultrasonic probe 400 are all electrically connected to the single-chip microcomputer 300 .

[0026] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a battery 200 is disposed in the middle of the right wall of the housing 100 , and the single chip computer 300 is electrically connected to the battery 200 .

[0027] The working principle of an air conditioner installation exploration device provided by the utility model is as follows: the relevant staff holds the shell 100, then aims the ultrasonic probe 400 at the wall or ceiling to be explored and gradually moves toward it until the ball 501 contacts the wall or ceiling surface to be explored, so that the ultrasonic probe 400 is kept at a certain distance from the wall or ceiling surface to be explored, thereby preventing foreign objects or protrusions in the wall or ceiling from causing damage to the ultrasonic probe 400, and also ensuring that the ultrasonic probe 400 maintains a relatively vertical state with the wall or ceiling surface to be explored during exploration, thereby improving the exploration accuracy of the air conditioner installation exploration device. When the staff holds the shell 100 and moves it, the ball 501 can minimize the friction coefficient with the wall or ceiling surface to be explored, thereby making it more convenient and smooth for the relevant staff to move. At the same time, the relevant staff controls the operation of the ultrasonic probe 400 through the single-chip microcomputer 300, and the transmitting end of the ultrasonic probe 400 sends ultrasonic waves, and the built-in receiving end of the ultrasonic probe 400 receives the returned ultrasonic waves. The signal is received and transmitted to the single-chip microcomputer 300 for processing.

The processed data is displayed through the data display 700 to help the installer obtain the structural image of the wall or ceiling. The installer can determine the best air conditioner installation position according to the structural image on the display 700 to avoid hitting the steel bars, pipes or wires inside the wall or ceiling during drilling or installation. When the ball 501 is worn and needs to be replaced, the relevant staff only needs to move the two adjacent sliding card plates 601 vertically toward each other through the rectangular slot 604 at the same time. The two adjacent sliding card plates 601 vertically will compress the corresponding springs 603 when moving, so that the sliding card plates 601 are separated from the corresponding limit card ports. At this time, the movable plug plate 500 and its attached mechanisms can be taken out, and then the new movable plug plate 500 and its attached mechanisms can be replaced according to the above steps. The structure is simple and practical, which is convenient for the relevant staff to fix. At the same time, the fixation is firm and can prevent the movable plug plate 500 from falling.

[0028] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the limit assembly also includes a guide rod 605 respectively arranged in the middle of the upper and lower surfaces of the fixed block 602, and the guide rod 605 is slidably connected to the sliding opening arranged at the right end of the inner end of the adjacent sliding clamp 601 on the same side, and the guide rod 605 plays a role in guiding the movement of the spring 603.
