Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of a pressure gauge and a gauge movement, in particular to a pressure gauge and a gauge movement. Background Art

[0002] A pressure gauge is an instrument that uses an elastic element as a sensitive element to measure and indicate pressure higher than the ambient pressure. It is widely used in almost all industrial processes and scientific research fields, and can be seen everywhere in thermal pipelines, oil and gas transmission, water and gas supply systems, vehicle repair and maintenance shops, etc.

[0003] For example, a pressure gauge movement and a pressure gauge disclosed in Patent Publication No. 201910660916.2, the key points of its technical solution are: the pressure gauge movement includes a gear shaft, fan teeth and an elastic tube, the gear set is fixedly connected to the pointer and drives the pointer to rotate, the fan teeth are meshed with the gear shaft and drive the gear shaft to rotate, it should be mentioned that the fan teeth rotate around a fixed axis; the inside of the elastic tube is through and curved; a concave hole is provided on the fan teeth, and an insert that can be inserted into the concave hole is fixed at one end of the elastic tube. When the pointer in the dial is vibrated and shakes, resulting in a tendency to swing back, the elastic tube with elasticity makes the insert connected to the elastic tube abut against the inner side of the concave hole on the fan teeth, pulling the fan teeth so that the fan teeth cannot rotate back, thereby constraining the rotation of the gear shaft and preventing the pointer from swinging back.

[0004] The pressure gauge mentioned above describes the problem that the rotation of the gear shaft prevents the pointer from swinging back, and the design uses an elastic tube and its components. However, in practice, the problem that the pointer cannot return to its original position lies in the design of the torsion spring. Simply installing a torsion spring on the pointer shaft cannot maximize the resetting of the pointer. Utility Model Content
