[0002] A thermal imaging search device is a device that uses infrared thermal imaging technology to detect the temperature distribution of an object. It is widely used in military, industrial, and medical fields. It generates a temperature distribution image by capturing the thermal radiation from the surface of an object, providing users with important temperature information. However, existing handheld thermal imaging search devices are bulky and inconvenient to store, thus affecting user portability. Utility Model Content

The recording screen is located on the rear of the housing, opposite the thermal imaging lens. The rear-mounted recording screen design conforms to human observation habits, allowing users to naturally observe the thermal image on the recording screen without adjusting the device angle or posture, improving ease of use and comfort. The handle is rotatably connected to the housing, making it foldable. By changing the position of the handle, the originally protruding handle can be folded up and fitted to the recording screen without affecting the normal function of the device, thereby reducing the vertical dimensions of the device and making it easier to carry. For example, in scenarios such as field operations and emergency rescue, users can easily put the device into a backpack or pocket, improving its portability. When the handle is in the working position, it is separated from the recording screen, providing users with sufficient space to hold the handle for various operations, such as adjusting the shooting angle and focusing on the target, making operation more flexible and convenient. This utility model embodiment employs a handle that is rotatably connected to the housing, allowing the handle to be folded for storage. This reduces the overall size of the device in the vertical direction, shrinking its overall volume and making it easier to store. The entire thermal imaging search device with the foldable handle can be folded down to the size of a pocket, thus improving its portability. By using a thermal imaging lens and recording screen positioned along the front and back of the housing, the thermal imaging lens can directly face the target object, reducing external interference and improving the accuracy and efficiency of thermal radiation capture. The rear-mounted recording screen conforms to human observation habits, improving the convenience and comfort of use. Attached Figure Description

[0046] A thermal imaging search device is a device that uses infrared thermal imaging technology to detect the temperature distribution of an object. It is widely used in military, industrial, and medical fields. It generates a temperature distribution image by capturing the thermal radiation from the surface of an object, providing users with important temperature information. However, existing handheld thermal imaging search devices are bulky and inconvenient to store, thus affecting user portability.

[0047] After careful research, the applicant found that conventional handheld thermal imaging search devices are bulky and take up a lot of space when carried outdoors, making them inconvenient to carry. In addition, conventional handheld thermal imaging search devices are often of fixed specifications and their shape cannot be adjusted, so they cannot be effectively reduced in size when not in use, making them difficult to place outdoors and limiting the user's ease of operation and application scenarios.

[0048] The main purpose of this invention is to propose a foldable grip thermal imaging search device to solve the problem of how to improve the portability of handheld thermal imaging search devices.

[0049] Please see Figures 1 to 5In one embodiment of this utility model, the foldable grip thermal imaging search device 100 includes a thermal imaging search device 1 and a grip 2. The thermal imaging search device 1 includes a housing 11, a thermal imaging lens 12, a circuit assembly (not shown), and a recording screen 13. The thermal imaging lens 12 and the recording screen 13 are respectively disposed on opposite sides of the housing 11 along a first direction. The circuit assembly is disposed inside the housing 11, and both the thermal imaging lens 12 and the recording screen 13 are electrically connected to the circuit assembly. The grip 2 is rotatably disposed at one end of the housing 11 along a second direction. The grip 2 has a folding position 2111 and a working position 2112. The grip 2 can reciprocate between the folding position 2111 and the working position 2112. When the grip 2 is in the folding position 2111, the grip 2 abuts against the side of the recording screen 13 away from the thermal imaging lens 12. When the grip 2 is in the working position 2112, the grip 2 is separated from the recording screen 13. The first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other.

[0050] In this embodiment of the utility model, the first direction is the front-to-back direction, and the second direction is the up-to-down direction. The housing 11 serves as the external structure of the entire thermal imaging search device 1, protecting the internal components and providing a stable installation environment for other parts, preventing damage to the thermal imaging search device 1 from external factors such as dust, moisture, and collisions. The thermal imaging lens 12 is used to capture the thermal radiation information of the target object. Through a specific optical structure and sensor, it focuses the thermal radiation of the target object and converts it into an electrical signal. The circuit component is the core control part of the entire thermal imaging search device 1. It is responsible for receiving the electrical signal from the thermal imaging lens 12, processing, analyzing, and storing it, and transmitting the processed information to the recording screen 13 for display. The recording screen 13 is used to display the thermal imaging image in real time, facilitating user observation and operation. The handle 2 is located at the lower end of the housing 11. The main function of the handle 2 is to provide a convenient grip and operation part for the user, allowing for a more comfortable and stable grip during long-term use of the device. At the same time, its foldable design reduces the overall size of the device when not in use, making it easy to carry and store. The thermal imaging lens 12 and the recording screen 13 are respectively disposed on opposite sides of the housing 11 along the front-rear direction. In this embodiment, the thermal imaging lens 12 is located on the front side of the housing 11, allowing the thermal imaging lens 12 to directly face the target object, reducing external interference and improving the accuracy and efficiency of thermal radiation capture. The recording screen 13 is disposed on the rear side of the housing 11, opposite to the thermal imaging lens 12. The design of the rear-mounted recording screen 13 conforms to human observation habits, allowing users to naturally observe the thermal image on the recording screen 13 without adjusting the device angle or posture, thus improving the convenience and comfort of use; the handle 2 rotates with the housing 11. The connection allows the grip 2 to be folded. By changing the position of the grip 2, the originally protruding part of the grip 2 can be stored and fitted with the recording screen 13 without affecting the normal function of the device. This reduces the size of the device in the vertical direction and the overall volume, making it easier to carry. For example, in scenarios such as field operations and emergency rescue, users can easily put the device into a backpack or pocket, improving the portability of the device. When the grip 2 is in the working position 2112, it is separated from the recording screen 13, providing users with enough space to hold the grip 2 to perform various operations, such as adjusting the shooting angle and focusing on the target, making the operation more flexible and convenient.

[0051] The technical solution of this utility model adopts a handle 2 that is rotatably connected to the housing 11, so that the handle 2 can be folded and stored, reducing the overall size of the device in the vertical direction, shrinking the overall volume, and making it easier to store. The entire thermal imaging search device 100 with the foldable handle can be folded to the size of a pocket, and can then be directly stored in a pocket, improving the portability of the device. By adopting a thermal imaging lens 12 and a recording screen 13 arranged along the front and rear direction of the housing 11, the thermal imaging lens 12 can be directly facing the target object, reducing external interference and improving the accuracy and efficiency of thermal radiation capture. The rear-mounted recording screen 13 conforms to human observation habits, improving the convenience and comfort of use.

[0052] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7In one embodiment, the grip 2 includes a handle 21, a pivot 22, and a fastener 23. The handle 21 includes a gripping portion 211 and a connecting portion 212 connected to each other. The connecting portion 212 is provided with a through hole 2121. The housing 11 includes an outer shell 111 and a limiting block 112 connected to each other. The thermal imaging lens 12 and the recording screen 13 are respectively disposed on two opposite sides of the outer shell 111 along a first direction. The circuit components are disposed inside the outer shell 111. The limiting block 112 is provided with a first mounting hole 1121, a second mounting hole 1122, and a limiting groove 1123. Both the first mounting hole 1121 and the second mounting hole 1122 communicate with the limiting groove 1123. The pivot 22... One end passes sequentially through the first mounting hole 1121, the through hole 2121, and the second mounting hole 1122 and is connected to the fastener 23. The fastener 23 can restrict the rotation of the rotating shaft 22 relative to the limiting block 112. The grip 211 has a folding position 2111 and a working position 2112. The grip 211 can reciprocate between the folding position 2111 and the working position 2112. When the grip 211 is in the folding position 2111, the grip 211 is in contact with the recording screen 13. When the grip 211 is in the working position 2112, the grip 211 is separated from the recording screen 13. Specifically, the outer shell 111 mainly serves to protect the internal components and prevent external factors from damaging the equipment. The limiting block 112 is used to install the grip 2. The first mounting hole 1121, the second mounting hole 1122, and the limiting groove 1123 provided on it provide precise positioning and support for the installation of the grip 2. The handle 21, as a handheld component, provides a part for the user to hold. The handle 21 is divided into a grip part 211 and a connecting part 212. The grip part 211 is used to directly contact the user's hand. Its design conforms to ergonomic principles, providing a comfortable grip, reducing hand fatigue, and facilitating the user's operation of the thermal imaging searcher 1. The connecting part 212 connects the grip part 211 and the housing 11, enabling the grip 2 to be stably connected to the housing 11. The rotating shaft 2 2 is a key component for realizing the foldable function of the grip 2. One end of the rotating shaft 22 passes through the first mounting hole 1121 on the limiting block 112, the through hole 2121 on the connecting part 212, and the second mounting hole 1122 on the limiting block 112 in sequence, and is connected to the fastener 23. This design allows the rotating shaft 22 to rotate freely in the first mounting hole 1121 and the second mounting hole 1122. At the same time, the fastener 23 restricts the grip 2 so that it will not rotate arbitrarily due to external force during normal use, ensuring the stability of the connection between the grip 2 and the limiting block 112, thereby providing a guarantee for the structural stability of the thermal imaging searcher 100 of the entire foldable grip.

[0053] In this embodiment, the pivot 22 can be a pin screw, and the fastener 23 can be a nut. One end of the pin screw passes through the first mounting hole 1121, the through hole 2121, and the second mounting hole 1122 in sequence and is threaded to the nut. By adjusting the tightness of the nut, the grip 2 will not rotate arbitrarily due to external force during normal use, thereby improving the structural stability of the thermal imaging search device 100 with the foldable grip.

[0054] According to another embodiment of the present invention, the fastener 23 is an elastic retaining spring. The elastic retaining spring can be installed on the rotating shaft 22. Through its elastic action, the handle 2 is fixed in a specific position. When it is necessary to adjust the position of the handle 2, only a certain external force needs to be applied to overcome the elastic force of the elastic retaining spring, thereby preventing the handle 2 from rotating randomly due to external force during normal use and improving the structural stability of the entire foldable grip thermal imaging searcher 100.

[0055] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 In one embodiment, the depth of the limiting groove 1123 is greater than the thickness of the connecting portion 212, allowing the grip portion 211 to abut against the side of the limiting block 112 away from the housing 11, thereby restricting the grip portion 211 from rotating away from the recording screen 13. Specifically, the cooperation between the limiting groove 1123 and the connecting portion 212 is mainly for precisely controlling the rotation range and position of the grip portion 211, ensuring that the grip 2 maintains a stable and design-compliant position under different conditions. Since the limiting groove 1123 is provided on the limiting block 112 and its depth is greater than the thickness of the connecting portion 212, this... Sufficient space is provided for the rotation of the grip 211, allowing it to rotate smoothly to the folded position 2111 and abut against the recording screen 13. When the grip 211 rotates to its maximum angle, due to the depth limitation of the limiting groove 1123, the grip 211 will naturally contact and abut against the side of the limiting block 112 away from the housing 11. This abutment relationship forms a physical restriction, preventing the grip 211 from continuing to rotate away from the recording screen 13. This ensures that the relative position of the grip 2 and the recording screen 13 remains unchanged in the working state, providing the user with a reliable operating experience. The maximum rotation angle of the grip 2 can be selected according to actual needs. This embodiment does not limit this. In this embodiment, the maximum rotation angle of the grip 2 is designed to be 170°. That is, when the grip part 211 abuts against the side of the limiting block 112 away from the housing 11, the angle between the grip part 211 and the recording screen 13 is 170°. This is the most suitable angle based on ergonomic principles. At this angle, the user's hand can naturally grip the grip 2, and the posture of the arm and wrist is more comfortable during operation, reducing the fatigue caused by long-term use of the device. At the same time, the stable positioning of the grip 2 at the maximum angle also makes the user more comfortable during operation.

[0056] Please see Figure 1 In one embodiment, the outer casing 111 has a first end 1111 along the second direction, and the recording screen 13 has a second end 1311 along the second direction. The first end 1111 and the second end 1311 are coplanar. The limiting block 112 is detachably connected to the first end 1111 and abuts against the second end 1311. Specifically, the first end 1111 at the lower end of the outer casing 111 and the second end 1311 at the lower end of the recording screen 13 are coplanar. This layout design optimizes the overall structure of the device, making the outer casing 111 and the recording screen 13 form a relatively regular whole in space, which facilitates the assembly, carrying and use of the device. The thermal imaging searcher 100 with a foldable grip may be subjected to vibration and collision during carrying or use. By abutting against the second end 1311, the outer casing 111 can be prevented from being vibrated or impacted. The limiting block 112 and the recording screen 13 are tightly fixed together to ensure the structural stability of the device and prevent relative displacement or loosening of the limiting block 112. The limiting block 112 and the first end 1111 are detachably connected, which facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the handle 2. When the handle 2 malfunctions and needs to be replaced or removed, the user can easily remove the limiting block 112 from the first end 1111 of the outer shell 111 for corresponding repair or replacement operations without disassembling the entire device, reducing maintenance costs and difficulty, and making the device more flexible and adaptable to meet the needs of different scenarios. For example, in some special monitoring tasks, it may be necessary to temporarily modify the device or add some auxiliary equipment. The detachable connection design allows users to easily adjust and expand the device according to actual needs. In addition, in this embodiment, the limiting block 112 and the first end 1111 can be detachably connected by bolts and nuts or by buckles. This embodiment does not limit this.

[0057] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3In one embodiment, the recording screen 13 includes a screen body 131 and a baffle assembly 132. The baffle assembly 132 includes a first baffle 1321, a second baffle 1322, and a third baffle 1323. The first baffle 1321 is disposed at the end of the screen body 131 away from the grip 2 along a second direction. The second baffle 1322 and the third baffle 1323 are respectively disposed at the two ends of the screen body 131 opposite to each other along a third direction. The first direction, the second direction, and the third direction are perpendicular to each other. Specifically, the third direction is the left-right direction. The recording screen 13 is composed of the screen body 131 and the baffle assembly 132. This structural design is mainly to protect the screen body 131. The first baffle 1321 is disposed at... At the upper end of the screen body 131, the second baffle 1322 and the third baffle 1323 are respectively disposed at the left and right ends of the screen body 131. Through the synergistic effect of the first baffle 1321, the second baffle 1322 and the third baffle 1323, all-round protection of the screen body 131 is achieved. Whether during device placement and carrying or in actual use scenarios, it can effectively prevent rainwater from entering the screen body 131 and avoid collisions and scratches from external objects, greatly improving the service life and stability of the screen body 131. It can also significantly reduce the interference of light on the thermal imaging image on the screen body 131, allowing users to observe and analyze thermal imaging information more clearly.

[0058] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 In one embodiment, the thickness of the second baffle 1322 is gradually reduced in the direction away from the first baffle 1321; and / or, the thickness of the third baffle 1323 is gradually reduced in the direction away from the first baffle 1321. Specifically, the thickness of both the second baffle 1322 and the third baffle 1323 is gradually reduced in the direction away from the first baffle 1321. This gradual reduction design can visually create a guiding effect, and the user's line of sight will naturally move along the gradual change in the thickness of the second baffle 1322 and the third baffle 1323, gradually extending from the thicker starting end near the first baffle 1321 to the thinner end. This guiding effect makes the user's attention more focused in a specific direction, thereby achieving the effect of visual concentration, avoiding the dispersion of the line of sight in multiple directions, reducing external interference, and allowing the user to focus more on the details and analysis of the thermal imaging image. Moreover, this gradual reduction design makes the edge lines of the recording screen 13 smoother and more natural. When viewed from different angles, the appearance of the device presents a gradually shrinking aesthetic, which conforms to the minimalist design trend of modern electronic devices and enhances the overall aesthetics of the product.

[0059] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the second baffle 1322 and the third baffle 1323 have a constant thickness in the vertical direction. That is, at any position in the vertical direction, the thickness of the second baffle 1322 and the third baffle 1323 remains the same, and there is no gradual change in thickness. When the thermal imaging searcher 1 is subjected to collision, vibration or other external forces during use, the uniformly thick second baffle 1322 and the third baffle 1323 can better withstand these impact forces, thereby improving the structural stability of the entire device.

[0060] Please see Figure 1 In one embodiment, the foldable grip thermal imaging searcher 100 further includes a battery (not shown) and a mounting cover 4. The battery is disposed within the housing 11 and is electrically connected to the circuit components. The mounting cover 4 is detachably connected to one end of the housing 11 along a third direction, and the mounting cover 4 can abut against the battery. The first direction, the second direction, and the third direction are perpendicular to each other. Specifically, the battery can provide stable power support for the normal operation of the foldable grip thermal imaging searcher 100. The battery is disposed within the housing 11. This layout design can make full use of the internal space of the housing 11, so that the battery is properly placed and protected. At the same time, the battery is electrically connected to the circuit components. Through carefully designed circuit lines and interfaces, it can be ensured that the electrical energy output by the battery can be stably and efficiently transmitted to the circuit components, thereby ensuring the smooth realization of functions such as the thermal imaging lens 12 capturing images, the circuit components processing data, and the recording screen 13 displaying images. In this embodiment, the mounting cover 4 Located on the right end of the housing 11, the mounting cover 4 is convenient for user operation and conforms to the usage habits of most users. The detachable connection between the mounting cover 4 and the housing 11 is a threaded connection, which is simple in structure and firmly connected. During installation, simply screw the mounting cover 4 onto the housing 11 so that it abuts against the battery to complete the installation process. This makes the removal and installation of the mounting cover 4 simpler and more convenient. When it is necessary to maintain, replace or inspect the battery, the user only needs to unscrew the mounting cover 4 to easily remove the battery, reducing the difficulty of equipment maintenance and improving the maintainability of the equipment. The threaded connection between the mounting cover 4 and the housing 11 ensures a tight fit between the mounting cover 4 and the battery, thereby preventing the battery from shaking or shifting inside the equipment and avoiding loosening of the connection between the battery and the circuit components due to vibration or other factors, which would affect the normal operation of the equipment. At the same time, the mounting cover 4 also provides a certain degree of protection for the battery, preventing damage to the battery from external factors such as dust and moisture.

[0061] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the mounting cover 4 is snapped onto one end of the housing 11 along a third direction. An elastic buckle is provided on the housing 11, and a slot is provided on the mounting cover 4. The elastic buckle and the slot engage with each other. When the mounting cover 4 is fixed on the housing 11 by the elastic buckle and the slot, the elastic buckle will apply a certain pressure to the battery through the mounting cover 4, so that the mounting cover 4 can abut against the battery, thereby making the battery stably placed inside the housing 11.

[0062] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5 In one embodiment, the grip 2 is located at the folded position 2111. The dimension of the thermal imaging searcher 100 of the foldable grip along the first direction is defined as H, then: 49mm ≤ H ≤ 59mm; the dimension of the thermal imaging searcher 100 along the second direction is defined as W, then: 69mm ≤ W ≤ 79mm; the dimension of the thermal imaging searcher 100 along the third direction is defined as L, then: 85mm ≤ L ≤ 95mm. The first direction, the second direction, and the third direction are perpendicular to each other. Specifically, by explicitly defining the grip 2 as being located at the folded position 211... The foldable grip thermal imaging search device 100 achieves precise specification of its overall size and shape across three dimensions (vertical, horizontal, and forward / backward). This results in a smaller and lighter overall device. In scenarios such as field operations and emergency rescue, where users need to carry the device for extended periods for monitoring and searching, the smaller size and weight reduce the burden on users, making it convenient to use anytime, anywhere. It also allows the device to be easily placed in a backpack, pocket, or other carrying tool, improving its portability. The specific dimensions of the foldable grip thermal imaging search device 100 in three dimensions can be selected according to actual needs; this embodiment does not limit this. In this embodiment, L = 90mm, W = 74mm, and H = 54mm, making it easy for users to place the foldable grip thermal imaging search device 100 in their pockets, further enhancing its portability.

[0063] Please see Figure 5In one embodiment, the extension length of the grip 2 is defined as A, then A≤W; and / or, the outer wall of the grip 2 is fitted with an anti-wear sleeve (not shown in the figure), the grip 2 is located in the folded position 2111, and the anti-wear sleeve abuts against the recording screen 13; specifically, after considering factors such as the storage space of the grip 2 after folding, the distance requirement between it and the first baffle 1321, and the convenience of user operation, the value of A is set to not exceed the vertical dimension W of the thermal imaging searcher 1, provided that the functional requirements are met. When the grip 2 is located in the folded position 2111, due to the limitation of A≤W, the grip 2 will not be too long and extend into the area where the first baffle 1321 is located, effectively avoiding collision and interference between the grip 2 and the first baffle 1321, ensuring that the grip 2 is not obstructed by the first baffle 1321 during the folding process, making the folding operation more convenient. Smooth and natural operation eliminates the need for users to worry about the grip 2 folding or becoming stuck or obstructed, improving the user experience. It also prevents wear and deformation of the grip 2 or the first baffle 1321 due to impacts, extending the device's lifespan. In this embodiment, the anti-wear cover is typically made of wear-resistant, soft, and elastic materials such as rubber or silicone. This embodiment does not limit the material selection for the anti-wear cover. When the grip 2 is folded to the position where it abuts against the recording screen 13, the anti-wear cover naturally conforms to the screen surface, forming an effective protective layer that protects the recording screen 13, preventing wear and tear on the screen when the grip 2 is folded, and extending the lifespan of the recording screen 13. Simultaneously, the anti-wear cover provides a certain degree of cushioning, reducing the impact of the folding grip 2 on the screen.
