[0049] To make the objectives and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with embodiments. It should be understood that the following text is merely used to describe one or more specific embodiments of this utility model and does not strictly limit the scope of protection specifically claimed by this utility model.

[0050] See Figure 1-7 A novel ultrasonic probe adjuster includes a cylindrical support 1 and a probe 2 located inside the support 1. The adjuster is mounted on the support 1 to define the position of the probe 2. Fixing feet 21 are provided on both sides of the probe 2, and the fixing feet 21 are connected to the outside of the probe 2 by adjusting the tightness of screws to support the probe 2 and facilitate angle adjustment. The adjuster includes a base 3, which is circular in structure. A positioning element 4 is connected to the center of the upper end face of the base 3 by screws. The positioning element 4 includes a first positioning post 41 connected to the support 1. The first positioning post 41 is hollow to reduce weight, and a positioning head 42 is fixedly connected to its top side. The positioning head 42 is fan-shaped and fits against the outer surface of the probe 2 for precise positioning of the probe 2. A locking assembly 5 is connected to the positioning element 4. The locking assembly 5 can lock onto supports 1 of different diameters. By adjusting the position of the locking assembly 5, the adjuster can be installed for various purposes.

[0051] See Figure 2-5A first positioning hole 33 is formed through the center of the side of the base 3, which is used to fix and connect the positioning component 4. A plug-in pin 411 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the first positioning pin 41. The plug-in pin 411 is a cylindrical structure that inserts into the first positioning hole 33, achieving a stable connection between the positioning component 4 and the base 3. A threaded groove 412 is formed at the bottom end of the first positioning pin 41, which has an internal thread structure and is used to cooperate with a locking screw for fixation. A second connecting hole 331 is formed through the side of the base 3, corresponding to the threaded groove 412, for inserting a locking screw to further fix the positioning component 4 and improve the stability of the device.

[0052] See Figure 4-7 A limiting ring 34 is fixedly connected to the center of the bottom of the base 3. The outer surface of the limiting ring 34 is smooth to reduce the frictional resistance of the drive disk 51. The locking assembly 5 includes a drive disk 51 sleeved on the limiting ring 34. The drive disk 51 achieves rotation through the limiting ring 34. A through groove 511 is opened through the side of the drive disk 51. The through groove 511 is evenly distributed around the axis of the drive disk 51. A connecting rod 52 is slidably connected in the through groove 511. One end of the connecting rod 52 is set in the through groove 511, and the other end is rotatably connected to a clamping block 53. The outer surface of the clamping block 53 is provided with multiple reinforcing ribs to increase the structural strength and prevent deformation due to long-term use.

[0053] See Figure 4-7 A through hole 512 is provided at the center of the side of the drive disk 51. The limiting ring 34 is inserted into the through hole 512. The size of the through hole 512 and the limiting ring 34 match to ensure that the drive disk 51 can rotate flexibly without deviation.

[0054] See Figure 6-7 A connecting post 521 is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting rod 52. The connecting post 521 is cylindrical and located in the through groove 511. The position of the clamping block 53 is adjusted by sliding the connecting post 521. A second positioning hole 522 is provided through the other side of the connecting rod 52. The second positioning hole 522 is a circular hole structure. A second positioning post 531 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the clamping block 53. The second positioning post 531 is inserted into the second positioning hole 522. The limiting structure ensures the reliability of the connection between the connecting rod 52 and the clamping block 53.

[0055] See Figure 4-7The top of the clamping block 53 is provided with a locking groove 532, which has a U-shaped structure and is used to engage with the outer surface of the bracket 1 to adapt to brackets 1 of different diameters. The upper end surface of the base 3 is provided with a guide groove 32, which is evenly distributed around the central axis of the first positioning hole 33. The guide groove 32 cooperates with the clamping block 53, and the opening size of the guide groove 32 is slightly larger than the thickness of the clamping block 53 to guide the movement of the clamping block 53 on the base 3.

[0056] See Figure 4 The base 3 has a first connecting hole 31 symmetrically opened on its side. The first connecting hole 31 is used to insert connecting bolts to assemble the base 3 with other components, ensuring the stability and reliability of the overall structure.

[0057] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0058] When in use, adjust the position of the clamping block 53 according to the diameter of the bracket 1 so that the engaging groove 532 at one end of the clamping block 53 can engage with the bracket 1. Through the three clamping blocks 53, the base 3 can be connected to the bracket 1 with different diameters.

[0059] When adjusting the position of the clamping block 53, the drive disk 51 needs to be rotated by hand. When the drive disk 51 rotates, the drive disk 51 will pull the clamping block 53 to move in the guide groove 32 through the connecting rod 52.

[0060] When rotated clockwise, the three clamping blocks 53 move away from each other; when rotated counterclockwise, the clamping blocks 53 move closer to each other.

[0061] The positioning component 4 and the base 3 are fixed by the locking assembly 5. Then, the position of the probe 2 can be adjusted by adjusting the tightness of the screws on the fixing foot 21. During the adjustment of the probe 2, the positioning component 4 is always on the axis of the bracket 1. Therefore, by observing the position of the probe 2 relative to the positioning component 4, the position of the probe 2 can be quickly adjusted.

[0062] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. Structures, devices, and operating methods not specifically described or explained in this utility model, unless otherwise specified or limited, shall be implemented using conventional methods in the field.
