In casting production, real-time measurement and recording of the temperature of the mold is extremely important for the control of the casting process. Compared with other temperature measurement methods, the spring-fixed thermocouple can achieve real-time monitoring of the temperature of each point of the mold at a lower cost.
[0003] When measuring the temperature of the molten metal in the mold cavity, during the production process, it is usually necessary to process a thermocouple blind hole on the mold surface, and install the sleeve in the thermocouple blind hole to achieve the installation of the thermocouple, thereby achieving the measurement of the temperature of the molten metal in the mold; and in order to avoid direct contact between the molten metal and the working end of the thermocouple, the bottom of the thermocouple blind hole cannot be opened, that is, it cannot be a through hole.
