The infrared thermal imaging camera of the infrared thermal imager passes through the first external threaded connecting post to the inside of the cabinet.
[0005] The specification of prior art 1 discloses an installation structure for an infrared thermal imager. In use, the infrared thermal imager is fixed to the cabinet by a mounting base plate, avoiding large-area drilling in the cabinet. However, in practical applications, it is not possible to install multiple infrared thermal imagers, and the load is too large when installing multiple infrared thermal imagers, resulting in poor stability of the support structure. Summary of the Invention
[0006] This utility model provides an infrared thermal imager mounting bracket, which aims to solve the problem that the load on the existing infrared thermal imager mounting bracket is too large when installing multiple infrared thermal imagers, resulting in poor installation stability.

[0027] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments. The described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are all within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0028] Please see Figures 1-5 As shown, this embodiment discloses an infrared thermal imager mounting bracket, including a main bracket 101, an extension bracket 102, and a support structure; the main bracket 101 is used to mount on a carrier; the extension bracket 102 is slidably mounted on the main bracket 101 and is used to mount the infrared thermal imager; the support structure provides additional support for the mounting of the main bracket 101, one end of the support structure is detachably connected to the main bracket 101, and the other end is mounted on the carrier through the mounting structure;
[0029] The installation structure includes a back plate 103 and a connecting plate 104. The back plate 103 is installed on the support structure and is used to connect to the connecting plate 104 by connecting bolts 105. A threaded cylinder 106 is rotatably provided on the connecting plate 104. The threaded cylinder 106 is threadedly engaged with the connecting bolts. The front and rear end faces of the carrier are used to be in close contact with the end faces of the connecting plate 104 and the back plate 103.
[0030] This utility model mainly includes a main support 101, an extension support 102, and a support structure. In actual use, the main function of the main support 101 is to provide a sliding carrier for the extension support 102 and to support it. During installation, the main support 101 is installed on the carrier, and then the extension support 102 is fastened onto the main support 101 to complete the installation. The main function of the extension support 102 is to act as a carrier for the infrared thermal imager and to slide on the main support 101, thereby effectively adjusting the position of the infrared thermal imager and facilitating adaptive scanning based on the actual object being scanned. Since several infrared thermal imagers need to be installed on the extension support 102, a support structure is required to support the main support 101. When several infrared thermal imagers are installed on the extension support 102... The load of the extension bracket 102 is transferred to the main bracket 101, and the support structure then supports the main bracket 101, enabling the main bracket 101 and the extension bracket 102 to support the infrared thermal imager more stably. At the same time, the installation structure allows the support structure to be flexibly installed on carriers of different thicknesses. In use, the connecting bolt 105 is threaded to the back plate 103, and then the connecting plate 104 is threaded onto the connecting bolt 105. Finally, the threaded cylinder 106 on the connecting plate 104 is rotated to fix the connecting plate 104. When the threaded cylinder 106 is rotated, since the threaded cylinder 106 is threaded with the connecting bolt 105, the threaded cylinder 106 drives the connecting plate 104 to adjust the distance between the back plate 103 and the connecting plate 104, thereby adapting to carriers of different thicknesses and making it more convenient for the installation of the support device.
[0031] As an optional implementation, in this embodiment, the carrier includes, but is not limited to, a column. In order to adapt to columns of different thicknesses, an installation structure that can adjust the distance is provided. By rotating the threaded cylinder 106, the distance between the connecting plate 104 and the back plate 103 is adjusted, so that the front and rear sides of the column are in contact with the back plate 103 and the end face of the connecting plate 104, and finally the installation structure is fixed to the support structure.
[0032] In some embodiments, the main support 101 is also provided with the mounting structure and is used to mount on the carrier through the mounting structure, wherein the back plate 103 in the mounting structure near the main support 101 is fixedly connected to the main support 101.
[0033] In actual use, the mounting structure on the main bracket 101 is exactly the same as the mounting structure on the support structure. The back plate 103 of the support structure on the main bracket 101 is fixedly connected to the main bracket 101, and the back plate 103 of the support structure is fixedly connected to the support structure.
[0034] In some embodiments, a connecting rib 107 is provided on the back plate 103 connected to the main support 101, and the connecting rib 107 is also connected to the main support 101.
[0035] In actual use, the purpose of setting the connecting rib 107 is to make the connection between the back plate 103 and the main support 101 more stable.
[0036] In some embodiments, both the main support 101 and the extension support 102 are U-shaped channel steel structures. The extension support 102 is fastened to slide on the main support 101 and is used to lock with the main support 101.
[0037] In actual use, the purpose of setting it as a U-shaped channel steel structure is to facilitate the fastening of the main support 101 and the extension support 102, and at the same time reduce processing costs.
[0038] In some embodiments, the support structure includes a support beam 108, one end of which is inclinedly disposed at the bottom of the main support 101, and the other end is connected to a back plate 103 near the support beam 108.
[0039] In actual use, the support beam 108 supports the main support 101 and shares the load borne by the main support 101.
[0040] In some embodiments, the support beam 108 is detachably mounted on the main bracket 101 via a locking structure.
[0041] In actual use, the purpose of setting the locking structure is to facilitate the installation of the support beam 108 on the main bracket 101, and at the same time, to facilitate the disassembly of the support beam 108.
[0042] In some different embodiments, no support structure is provided below the main support 101;
[0043] When the number of infrared thermal imagers installed is small, there is no need to set up a support structure to support the main bracket 101. The freely pull-out extension bracket 102 can adjust the position of the thermal imager.
[0044] In some different embodiments, the extension bracket 102 is not provided on the main bracket 101, and the infrared thermal imager is directly mounted on the main bracket 101. This mounting method is suitable for situations where no adjustment of the infrared thermal imager is required, and this setting saves more manufacturing costs.
[0045] In some embodiments, the locking structure includes a locking plate 109 and a locking bolt 110. The locking plate 109 is connected to the end of the support beam 108 to form an integral structure. The locking bolt 110 is used to pass through the main bracket 101 and the locking plate 109 in sequence and then be threadedly connected to the threaded hole on the locking plate 109.
[0046] In actual use, when installing the support beam 108, the locking bolt 110 needs to be passed through the main bracket 101 and threaded to the threaded hole on the locking plate 109 to achieve the connection of the locking plate 109.
[0047] In some embodiments, the end face and side face of the main bracket 101 and the extension bracket 102 are provided with a plurality of waist-shaped holes 111, and the locking bolt 110 is used to pass through the waist-shaped holes 111 on the end face of the main bracket 101 and then be threadedly connected to the threaded hole on the locking plate 109.
[0048] In actual use, the purpose of setting the waist-shaped hole 111 is to make it easier for the locking bolt 110 to fit with the threaded hole on the locking plate 109 after passing through the main bracket 101. In addition, the waist-shaped hole 111 can also adapt to the installation position of the locking plate 109, which is more conducive to the installation of the support beam 108.
[0049] In some embodiments, both the main support 101 and the extension support 102 are provided with scale lines 112.
[0050] In actual use, the purpose of setting the scale line 112 is to facilitate the accurate measurement of the distance the extension bracket 102 slides out, thereby making the position of the infrared thermal imager more accurate.
[0051] In some different embodiments, the two ends of the support beam 108 are respectively hinged to the locking plate 109 and the back plate 103 near the support beam 108, and the locking plate 109 is used to slide on the main bracket 101.
[0052] In actual use, since the main support 101 has several oblong holes 111 on its end face, the locking plate 109 can be moved to any position below the main support 101. During the movement of the locking plate 109, the tilt angle of the support beam 108 changes, thereby pushing or pulling the mounting structure near the support beam 108 to move down or up on the column. Finally, after the position of the locking plate 109 is determined, the position of the mounting structure is fixed. The advantage of this setting is that it is easier to install the support beam 108 without having to install the support beam 108 in a fixed position.
