[0024] Figure 10 for Figure 9 sectional view of . DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0026] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, the temperature measuring device with a replaceable temperature probe in this embodiment includes a sensing assembly 100 and a temperature probe 200. The temperature probe 200 can be of various types, with varying sizes and shapes, and can be detachably mounted on the sensing assembly 100. In this embodiment, the temperature sensing portion of the temperature probe 200 is bent 90° relative to the fixed portion or positioned on the same horizontal plane. Of course, various shapes of temperature probes 200 can be employed depending on the installation environment.

[0027] The sensing assembly 100 includes a heat-conducting housing 1, a temperature sensor 2, and an electronic wire 3, which can be used to secure the temperature sensor 2 and the electronic wire 3. To effectively conduct heat and ensure more accurate temperature data detected by the temperature sensor 2, the housing 1 can be made of metal. For example, the housing 1 in this embodiment is made of a copper alloy. Copper alloys have good thermal conductivity and can improve the accuracy of temperature detection.

[0028] The housing 1 has a rearwardly open cavity 11. The temperature sensor 2 is disposed at the front end of the cavity 11. The front end of the electronic wire 3 is sealed and fixed within the cavity 11, and the front end of the electronic wire 3 is electrically connected to the temperature sensor 2. To ensure the sealing and waterproofing of the electronic wire 3 and temperature sensor 2 within the cavity 11 and to facilitate assembly, the rear portion of the cavity 11 is filled with epoxy resin 6 around the outer periphery of the electronic wire 3.

[0029] During operation, the electronic wire 3 transmits the temperature data detected by the temperature sensor 2 to the electronic module for data processing. To facilitate the external connection of the electronic wire 3, the rear end of the electronic wire 3 in this embodiment is electrically connected to a waterproof socket 8, which increases the assembly speed of the connection of the electronic wire 3.

[0030] Various temperature probes 200 are removably mounted on the front end of the housing 1. During use, a different temperature probe 200 can be selected based on the model and installation location of the spark plug to be measured. This ensures that the temperature measuring device, once fixed at the desired location, can effectively contact the spark plug's temperature measurement location. The temperature probe 200 does not need to be bent, thus preventing breakage and extending its service life. The temperature probe 200 in this embodiment is a sheet metal structure that effectively conducts heat from the spark plug's temperature measurement location to the housing 1, where it is then detected by the temperature sensor 2 to obtain the measured temperature.

[0031] To improve temperature detection accuracy, temperature sensor 2 is wrapped with an ultra-thin Teflon tube 4. Furthermore, to further enhance temperature detection accuracy, cavity 11 is filled with quartz sand 5, corresponding to the periphery of temperature sensor 2. Using temperature sensor 2 as a device monitor, quartz sand 5 and ultra-thin Teflon tube 4 are introduced into housing 1 as conductive materials, enabling more accurate measurement of the temperature signal generated by the engine spark plug during operation.

[0032] In order to ensure the secure installation of the electronic wire 3 in the housing 1 and prevent it from being pulled off, at least one set of screw holes 12 are relatively opened in the middle of the housing 1 corresponding to the area of ​​the electronic wire 3. An extrusion piece 7 is screwed into the screw hole 12. During assembly, the extrusion piece 7 is screwed into the screw hole 12, squeezing the electronic wire 3 in the housing 1 from the opposite direction, thereby firmly fixing the electronic wire 3 in the housing 1.

[0033] In addition, this embodiment provides two detachable structures of the temperature probe 200, as detailed below: Of course, the temperature probe 200 can also be fixed on the housing 1 by other existing detachable structures.

[0034] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the first detachable structure is as follows: a fixing portion 13 is provided at the front of the housing 1 along the radial inward direction, and a thread is provided on the outer circumferential surface of the fixing portion 13. The temperature probe 200 is sleeved outside the fixing portion 13. A fixing nut 131 is screwed on the fixing portion 13 from the front of the temperature probe 200. The fixing nut 131 presses and fixes the temperature probe 200 on the fixing portion 13 through the spring washer 9.

[0035] like Figures 6 to 10 As shown, the first detachable structure is as follows: a fixing portion 13 is provided radially inwardly on the front portion of the housing 1. The outer circumference of the fixing portion 13 is provided with threads. A connecting nut 132 is fixed to the temperature probe 200 and is threadedly connected to the fixing portion 13. In addition, a spring washer 9 is provided between the connecting nut 132 and the end surface of the fixing portion 13.

[0036] The above two detachable structures can achieve the purpose of rapid replacement and installation of temperature sugar lotus roots, and users can then replace and install them according to the specific installation environment.

[0037] The temperature measuring device of the present invention can be installed on the equipment with interchangeable temperature probes 200 of various sizes and shapes, enabling better adaptation to spark plugs of varying sizes and installation locations, thereby reducing the risk of probe damage, extending service life, and improving temperature detection accuracy. The temperature measuring device can also record the continuous operating status of the engine spark plugs, providing maintenance reminders and ensuring optimal equipment operation.

[0038] In the specification and claims of the present invention, directional terms such as "front," "back," "up," "down," "left," "right," "side," "top," and "bottom" are used to describe various exemplary structural parts and elements of the present invention. However, these terms are used herein for convenience of description only and are based on the exemplary orientations shown in the accompanying drawings. Since the embodiments disclosed herein can be arranged in different orientations, these directional terms are intended for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting. For example, "up" and "down" are not necessarily limited to directions opposite to or consistent with the direction of gravity.
