[0022] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a magnetic rebound circuit detection probe comprises a syringe 1, a linkage rod 2 and a probe head 3, wherein the linkage rod 2 is arranged in the syringe 1, and its lower end is connected to the probe head 3, and a damping component is arranged between the syringe 1 and the linkage rod 2; the damping component comprises an inclined plane mechanism 41, a connecting rod 42, a fixed magnet 43 and a movable magnet 44; the inclined plane mechanism 41 is fixedly connected to the linkage rod 2; the upper end of the connecting rod 42 is connected to the syringe 1 through a hinge 421, and its lower end is in contact with the inclined plane; the fixed magnet 43 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the syringe 1, and the movable magnet 44 is fixedly connected to the linkage rod 2; the opposite surfaces of the fixed magnet 43 and the movable magnet 44 are of the same polarity;

[0024] In order to ensure the return force of the linkage rod 2, an auxiliary return assembly is also provided between the linkage rod 2 and the syringe 1; the auxiliary return assembly includes a limit magnet 51 and a return magnet 52; the limit magnet 51 is fixedly connected to the syringe 1; the return magnet 52 is fixedly connected to the linkage rod 2; in the initial state, the limit magnet 51 and the return magnet 52 are in an adsorption state;

[0025] In the initial state, under the repulsive force of the fixed magnet 43 and the movable magnet 44, the connecting rod 42 deflects to one side of the linkage rod 2, and its lower end is located at the bottom of the inclined plane; when the linkage rod 2 is pressed, the inclined plane mechanism 41 is driven to move downward, so that the connecting rod 42 deflects to the inner wall of the syringe 1, and the movable magnet 44 approaches the fixed magnet 43, and the repulsive force increases, that is, the linkage rod 2 needs to overcome the gradually increasing repulsive force between the fixed magnet 43 and the movable magnet 44, as well as the attractive force between the limit magnet 51 and the return magnet 52 to move downward until the probe head 3 is in a fully excited state; after the external force is removed, the linkage rod 2 returns to its original position under the action of the repulsive force between the fixed magnet 43 and the movable magnet 44 and the attractive force between the limit magnet 51 and the return magnet 52;

[0026] Furthermore, by changing the slope angle of the slope mechanism 41, the length of the connecting rod 42, and the specifications of the fixed magnet 43 and the movable magnet 44, the damping size in the movable stroke of the linkage rod 2 can be adjusted to be suitable for different movable strokes.

[0027] The end of the connecting rod 42 that contacts the inclined surface is provided with a roller 422, which helps to reduce friction, reduce loss and extend the service life.

[0028] In practical applications, the fixed magnet 43 and the movable magnet 44 are bar magnets; and, in practical applications, the length of the movable magnet 44 should be significantly greater than the length of the fixed magnet 43, or the length of the fixed magnet 43 should be significantly longer than the movable magnet 44, so as to ensure that the repulsive force between the two magnets will not produce a large and sudden change due to the change in the deflection angle of the connecting rod 42, thereby avoiding a clear sense of segmentation in the active stroke of the linkage rod 2.

[0029] In actual application, a shock-absorbing block 521 is provided at one end of the return magnet 52 facing the limiting magnet 51, which is used to absorb the vibration during the movement of the linkage rod 2, avoid direct contact between the limiting magnet 51 and the return magnet 52, and play a buffering role; the shock-absorbing block 521 is made of foam material or rubber material.

[0030] The linkage rod 2 is provided with a lower limit block 22 for limiting the travel of the linkage rod 2 to not exceed the lowermost end, and the limit magnet 51 serves to limit the uppermost end of the movable travel of the linkage rod 2 .

[0031] A connector 21 is disposed at the upper end of the linkage rod 2, on which grooves and protrusions are disposed for facilitating the combination of the probe and the driving unit.

[0032] A tip sleeve 11 is provided at the lower end of the syringe 1 for protecting the probe head 3 in an unactivated state. The tip sleeve 11 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the syringe 1 by screwing and can be disassembled for debugging, maintenance and replacement of parts of the probe.

[0033] Advantages of the utility model:

[0034] A combination of an inclined plane mechanism and a magnet is used to convert the longitudinal displacement of the linkage rod into the approach and distance between two repelling magnets. The repulsive force between the magnets is used to replace the mechanical spring, and an auxiliary return assembly is provided to help the linkage rod reset. Compared with springs, it is not easy to age and deform, has low mechanical loss, and has a longer service life of the detection probe, which reduces the frequency of repair and replacement of the probe and can reduce the cost of use.

[0035] The above is only a specific implementation of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed in the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model shall be based on the protection scope of the claims.
