[0028] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0029] See also Figure 1-5 A thermocouple in this embodiment includes a thermocouple body 1, a protrusion 2 and a terminal 3, and an anti-wear component is provided outside the terminal 3;

[0030] The anti-wear component includes a sleeve 4 arranged at the opening of the terminal 3, a socket 5 fixedly connected to the top and bottom of the terminal 3, a plug plate 6 fixedly connected to the top and bottom of the sleeve 4, a damper 7 fixedly connected to the inside and outside of the sleeve 4, a protective sleeve 8 fixedly connected to the top of the damper 7, a rubber pad 9 bonded to the outer surface of the protective sleeve 8, a first fixing plate 10 fixedly connected to the front and back of the terminal 3, a threaded column 11 fixedly connected to the right side of the fixing plate 10, a second fixing plate 12 fixedly connected to the front and back of the sleeve 4 and a nut 13 threadedly sleeved on the top of the threaded column 11. When in use, the cable will pass through the terminal 3 to the outside of the sleeve 4. When the cable is about to contact the opening of the sleeve 4, the rubber pad 9 on the outer surface of the protective sleeve 8 can play a bottoming role to prevent cable wear.

[0031] The damper 7 can play a buffering role to prevent the cable from being subjected to excessive pressure. At the same time, it can also simply clamp the cable to prevent it from deflecting.

[0032] In addition, when the rubber pad 9 reaches the end of its service life, the staff only needs to remove the nut 13, and then pull out the sleeve 4 with force to release the plug-in connection between the socket 5 and the plug plate 6, and then remove the sleeve 4 and replace the rubber pad 9, which is more convenient. Compared with the existing thermocouple, it can avoid cable wear and is more conducive to use.

[0033] Among them, a left half tube 14 and a right half tube 15 are arranged on the left and right sides of the protection tube of the thermocouple body 1, and the front and back sides of the left half tube 14 and the right half tube 15 are fixedly connected with a mounting plate 16. By arranging the left half tube 14 and the right half tube 15, the effect of protecting the protection tube of the thermocouple body 1 is achieved, and at the same time, it is more convenient for transportation.

[0034] At the same time, a positioning hole 17 is opened on the outer surface of the mounting plate 16, and a positioning bolt 18 is arranged inside the positioning hole 17. A positioning nut 19 is threadedly sleeved on the outer surface of the positioning bolt 18. By arranging the positioning bolt 18 and the positioning nut 19, when the left half pipe 14 and the right half pipe 15 affect the installation of the thermocouple body 1, the staff only needs to remove the positioning bolt 18 and the positioning nut 19 to release the limit on the left half pipe 14 and the right half pipe 15, so as to disassemble them, thereby achieving the effect of easy disassembly and assembly.

[0035] In addition, the inner and outer sides of the left half tube 14 and the right half tube 15 are fixedly connected with insulation pads 20, and the material of the insulation pads 20 is glass wool. By setting the insulation pads 20 made of glass wool, it can achieve a heat insulation effect and prevent the external temperature from affecting the normal operation of the thermocouple body 1.

[0036] It should be noted that there are two terminals 3, and the socket 5 and the plug board 6 are plugged and fixed. By providing the socket 5 and the plug board 6, it is convenient for workers to quickly locate them.

[0037] It should be understood that the number of bumps 2 is consistent with the number of terminals 3, and the bottom of the bump 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the thermocouple body 1. By providing the bump 2, the sensitive part of the thermocouple can be protected from physical damage or environmental influences.

[0038] In addition, an isolation pad 21 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the protection tube of the thermocouple body 1. The isolation pad 21 is made of ceramic. By providing the isolation pad 21 made of ceramic, the corrosion resistance of the thermocouple body 1 is enhanced and its service life is increased.

[0039] The implementation principle of a thermocouple in the embodiment of the present application is:

[0040] When the thermocouple is in use, the cable will pass through the terminal 3 to the outside of the sleeve 4. When the cable is about to contact the opening of the sleeve 4, the rubber pad 9 on the outer surface of the protective sleeve 8 can play a bottoming role to avoid cable wear, and the damper 7 can play a buffering role to avoid excessive pressure on the cable. At the same time, it can also simply clamp the cable to avoid its deviation. In addition, when the rubber pad 9 reaches the end of its service life, the staff only needs to remove the nut 13 and then pull out the sleeve 4 outward with force, thereby releasing the plug-in fixation of the sleeve 5 and the plug board 6, and the sleeve 4 can be removed and the rubber pad 9 can be replaced.
