Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of instrument temperature measurement, and particularly relates to a double metal temperature sensing element for end face temperature measurement. BACKGROUND

[0002] The temperature sensing element of the double metal thermometer is made by pressing together two metal materials with different thermal expansion coefficients, winding into a spiral shape, fixing one end, and connecting the other end to a pointer. When the temperature changes, the two metals expand due to the different thermal expansion coefficients, and the side with the higher expansion coefficient deforms more, causing the entire spiral temperature core to rotate along the spiral line, thereby driving the steel wire and the pointer to rotate and indicate the corresponding temperature value on the dial.

[0003] The existing double metal thermometer temperature measurement end uses a welding or riveting structure. The welding method is not easy to implement when installed and used in large plane fixing positions or extremely small spaces, and it is difficult to maintain and replace in the later period. The riveting structure has the risk of falling off, and the size control is strict. Therefore, a connection method that is safe and reliable, easy to install and maintain in the later period, and suitable for use in large plane (end face) working conditions is needed. SUMMARY

[0004] The utility model provides a double metal temperature sensing element for end face temperature measurement, which uses a support disc with an adjusting groove and a threaded structure as the installation structure of the temperature measurement end, and the whole can be assembled and disassembled through the adjusting groove and the thread.

[0005] The utility model adopts the technical scheme:

[0006] A double metal temperature sensing element for end face temperature measurement, comprising a support disc, a temperature sensing element and a pointer shaft, the bottom of the support disc is provided with an adjusting groove, and the outer circumferential surface of the support disc is provided with a thread; the top of the support disc is fixed with one end of the temperature sensing element, and the other end of the temperature sensing element is fixed with the end of the pointer shaft; the other end of the pointer shaft is connected as a temperature indicating element connection part; the axis of the support disc, the temperature sensing element and the pointer shaft is parallel. The support disc serves as a support base, and the whole is assembled to the required working position through the thread, and the pointer shaft is made of steel wire.

[0007] As a preferred scheme of the utility model, the temperature sensing element is a double metal spiral temperature sensing element.

[0008] As a preferred scheme of the utility model, the top of the support disc is provided with a boss, and the temperature sensing element is welded with the outer wall of the boss. The boss is arranged at the center position of the support disc, the center of the boss overlaps with the center of the support disc, and the boss is convenient for welding of the temperature sensing element.

[0009] As a preferred scheme of the utility model, the adjusting groove is a character type groove, and the adjusting groove is arranged along the radial direction of the supporting disc, and the axis of the adjusting groove passes the center of the supporting disc. A character screwdriver can be inserted into the adjusting groove to rotate the supporting disc, and the supporting disc is assembled to or disassembled from the work station through the thread.

[0010] As a preferred scheme of the utility model, the temperature sensing element and the fixed end of the pointer shaft are provided with an inner folding part, and the inner folding part is welded with the pointer shaft; and the pointer shaft is located on the axis of the temperature sensing element. The inner folding part is convenient for the pointer shaft to be on the axis of the temperature sensing element, and the spiral end is directly bent inward.

[0011] As a preferred scheme of the utility model, the outer layer of the temperature sensing element is an active layer, and the inner layer is a passive layer, the expansion coefficient of the active layer is greater than that of the passive layer, and the active layer shrinks inward along the spiral direction when heated, and expands outward along the spiral direction when cooled, and can be left-handed or right-handed, and the commonly used temperature sensing element has the active layer inside and the passive layer outside, expands outward when heated, and shrinks inward when cooled, and when the thermometer is continuously heated, the expansion is large, and the winding element is easy to touch the inner wall of the tube or is out of concentric due to the expansion deformation. The consequences are that the finished thermometer is prone to needle jumping and needle sticking, and the temperature core that expands and lengthens greatly limits the length of the temperature sensing tube, and in the case of short protective tube, a large temperature measurement error occurs.

[0012] The utility model uses the supporting disc as the supporting base of the temperature measuring structure, and a character type groove is arranged on the bottom surface of the supporting disc and a thread is arranged on the outer circumferential surface, and the two are matched to realize the overall installation and disassembly, without the aid of argon arc welding or riveting structure, the end surface of the supporting disc is directly contacted, and the character screwdriver can be used to operate the rotating of the supporting disc, the temperature sensing element and the pointer shaft welded thereon, so that the whole rotates, the temperature is adjusted, the installation and disassembly are realized, and the disassembly and installation are convenient, and the temperature sensing element uses the winding mode that the active layer is outside and the passive layer is inside, shrinks when heated, and expands when cooled, so that the thermometer needle sticking and needle jumping are avoided.
