Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of measuring equipment, in particular to a novel glass liquid thermometer reading device, which aims to improve the reading efficiency of the glass liquid thermometer and ensure the accuracy and consistency of the reading of the glass liquid thermometer. Background Art

[0002] A glass liquid thermometer is a device that measures temperature based on the principle that the volume of an object changes when its temperature changes. It is mainly composed of a glass tube, an internal liquid (usually a liquid with low viscosity such as isopropyl alcohol), a chemical gas such as pore pressure, and a scale. However, traditional glass liquid thermometers have certain limitations when reading temperature values. The traditional reading method of a glass liquid thermometer requires manual operation of an optical telescope to aim at the glass liquid thermometer and estimate the temperature value through 5x optical magnification. The operation is cumbersome, time-consuming, and the reading accuracy is not high.

[0003] Based on the above background, the utility model proposes a novel glass liquid thermometer reading device, which is composed of a camera magnification system and a display screen reading system, and realizes accurate reading of temperature value through image processing technology. Compared with the existing manual reading method, the utility model is simple to operate and has higher reading accuracy, and has strong practicality and innovation. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution of a novel glass liquid thermometer reading device of the utility model is as follows:

[0006] A novel glass liquid thermometer reading device comprises a display screen, a movable base, a support column, and an adjustment mechanism, wherein the adjustment mechanism comprises a clamping unit, a y-axis fine-tuning unit, an x-axis fine-tuning unit, an angle fine-tuning unit, a spherical bracket, an industrial camera and accessories.

[0007] The clamping unit is fixed on the support column by hand-tightening bolts and can move in a wide range of y-axis directions along with the support column.

[0008] Preferably, the y-axis fine-tuning unit is installed on the right side of the clamping unit by mechanical connection, and the displacement of the y-axis can be fine-tuned.

[0009] Preferably, the x-axis fine-tuning unit is mounted on the y-axis fine-tuning unit by mechanical connection, so that the displacement of the x-axis can be fine-tuned.

[0010] Preferably, the angle fine-tuning unit is installed on the x-axis fine-tuning unit, which can achieve precise angle adjustment within a range of 360 degrees.

[0011] Preferably, the spherical bracket is installed on the angle fine-tuning unit, which can achieve positioning with all-directional freedom.

[0012] Preferably, a high-definition industrial camera can clearly magnify the image 20 times.

[0013] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0014] 1. The utility model provides a new glass liquid thermometer reading device, which has the advantages of simple and reliable structure, good stability, easy adjustment and use, etc. The operator first adjusts the clamping unit to roughly align the high-definition industrial camera with the glass liquid thermometer to be read, and then adjusts the position of the high-definition industrial camera through the x-axis, y-axis, and angle fine-tuning unit to accurately align it with the glass liquid thermometer to be read, and then zooms in on the display screen to quickly complete the reading;

[0015] 2. The traditional reading method requires manual adjustment of the optical telescope to aim and read, which requires complex operating steps and a long reading time. However, this device simplifies the reading process through optimized design. Users only need to follow convenient operating steps to quickly aim and accurately read, which greatly improves the reading efficiency of the glass liquid thermometer and reduces manual reading errors and reading time.
