The terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of this application or the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a specific order.
[0022] Reference to "embodiments" herein means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in conjunction with the embodiments may be included in at least one embodiment of the present application. The appearance of the phrase in various locations in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an independent or alternative embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It is explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.
[0023] The utility model embodiment provides an easy-to-operate oil measuring hole, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, the easy-to-operate oil measuring hole includes: an oil hole tube 2 assembled on the top of the oil tank body 1, and a detachable sealing cover 3 is arranged on the oil hole tube 2; an electronic liquid level gauge 4 for detecting the oil amount, the electronic liquid level gauge 4 is arranged on the sealing cover 3, and the detection rod 5 of the electronic liquid level gauge 4 extends into the oil hole tube 2; a hook 6 for limiting the sealing cover 3, and the hook 6 is fixedly installed on the sealing cover 3; a buckle 7 for limiting the hook 6, the buckle 7 is arranged on the oil hole tube 2, and the buckle 7 can be engaged with or separated from the hook 6; a limiting mechanism for limiting the electronic liquid level gauge 4, and the limiting mechanism is arranged on the detection rod 5 and the sealing cover 3.
[0024] It should be noted that the traditional method of monitoring the liquid level of oil tanks mainly relies on manual operation. The process involves the operator going to the top of the oil tank in person and using a dipstick or other measuring tools to measure the liquid level from the oil hole into the oil tank. This method has the following significant deficiencies and potential safety risks: manual measurement requires the operator to go to the oil tank site in person and perform a series of complex operation steps, such as opening the oil hole, inserting the dipstick, and reading the liquid level. These steps are not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also increase the labor intensity of the operator; during the manual measurement process, due to the influence of human factors (such as visual errors, improper operation, etc.), it is easy to cause errors in the measurement results. This error may affect the inventory management, production planning, and safety assessment of the oil tank; due to the cumbersome and error-prone operation of manual measurement, the entire liquid level monitoring process is inefficient. Especially when multiple oil tanks need to be monitored, the time and labor costs of manual measurement will increase significantly; for large oil tanks or high-level oil products, manual measurement has certain safety risks. Operators need to climb to the top of the oil tank, which may lead to the risk of working at height. At the same time, in the process of opening the oil measuring hole and inserting the oil dipstick, they may also come into contact with toxic, harmful or flammable and explosive oil products, thereby increasing the risk of safety accidents. In summary, it is necessary to develop an easy-to-operate oil measuring hole to solve the above problems.
[0025] In this embodiment, it is assembled on the top of the oil tank body 1 as the installation base of the electronic liquid level meter 4, and also the channel for liquid level detection. Its position is fixed, which is convenient for the installation and removal of the sealing cover 3; the sealing cover 3: the detachable design is convenient for the maintenance and replacement of the electronic liquid level meter 4. The opening and closing of the sealing cover 3 are completed by the cooperation of the hook 6 and the buckle 7, which ensures the convenience of operation and the sealing inside the oil tank; the electronic liquid level meter 4: is set on the sealing cover 3, and its detection rod 5 extends into the oil hole tube 2, realizing the real-time monitoring of the oil tank liquid level. The use of the electronic liquid level meter 4 avoids the manual operation of the traditional oil dipstick, reduces human errors, and improves the measurement accuracy; the hook 6: is fixedly installed on the sealing cover 3, used to cooperate with the buckle 7 to realize the rapid locking and unlocking of the sealing cover 3. The design of the hook 6 simplifies the operation process of the sealing cover 3 and improves the operation efficiency; the buckle 7: is set on the oil hole tube 2, and interacts with the hook 6 to ensure the stability of the sealing cover 3 in the correct position. The movable design of the buckle 7 makes the opening and closing of the sealing cover 3 more convenient and quick; it is arranged on the detection rod 5 and the sealing cover 3 to ensure the stability and accuracy of the electronic liquid level meter 4 during the measurement process.

As one of the main parts of the limiting mechanism, it moves together with the detection rod 5 and provides a fixed reference position for the limiting block 12. The design of the assembly shell 8 ensures the stability of the detection rod 5 during the measurement process; the mounting frame 9: is fixed on the sealing cover 3, and provides stable support and guidance for the pin 10. The fixed position of the mounting frame 9 helps to keep the movement trajectory of the pin 10 consistent, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the limiting mechanism; the pin 10: is slidably mounted on the mounting frame 9, one end of which is fixed with the limiting block 12, and the other end is fixed with a pull ring 13. The pin 10 realizes the engagement or release between the limiting block 12 and the assembly shell 8 by sliding, and is a key actuator of the limiting mechanism; the spring 11: is mounted on the pin 10 to provide a reset force for the pin 10. The function of the spring 11 is to keep the limit block 12 in the engaged state when there is no external force, so as to ensure that the detection rod 5 of the electronic liquid level meter 4 will not accidentally leave the limited state; the limit block 12 is fixed at one end of the pin rod 10, and one side of the limit block 12 is engaged with the assembly shell 8.

[0034] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a mounting hole is provided on the mounting frame 9 , and the mounting hole is adapted to fit the pin rod 10 .
[0035] In this embodiment, the mounting hole is formed on the mounting frame 9, providing a precise positioning and movement channel for the pin 10.
