Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to an adjustable thermometer. Background Technology

[0002] A thermometer is an instrument used to measure the temperature of the surface or interior of an object. Based on their measurement principles and applications, thermometers can be divided into non-contact thermometers and contact thermometers. Contact thermometers are further divided into digital and analog types. Digital thermometers are controlled by a chip and have a built-in computer that can automatically process data, offering high accuracy and fast response. Analog thermometers utilize the principles of changing resistance, potential difference, or thermistor current for measurement, offering high sensitivity but requiring manual reading. They are widely used in industrial and medical fields, among others.

[0003] In the industrial sector, thermometers are used to measure the temperature during the production processes of steel, chemicals, or food. Because these products are produced at very high temperatures, when measuring the temperature, workers hold the thermometer in their hands and insert the probe on the thermometer into the product being produced. The overall length of the thermometer is fixed, allowing only close-range measurements. When the temperature of the product being measured is high, workers who are close to the product are easily burned, posing a safety hazard.

[0004] Therefore, we desire an adjustable thermometer. Utility Model Content

[0005] This embodiment provides an adjustable thermometer, which solves the problem that the overall length of the thermometer is fixed, and it can only measure at close range. When the temperature of the product being measured is high, the staff who are close to the product are easily burned, which poses a safety hazard.

[0006] According to one aspect of this application, an adjustable thermometer is provided, including a thermometer body, the adjustable thermometer further comprising:

[0007] A storage frame, in which the thermometer body is rotatably connected;

[0008] A cover plate and an adjustment structure are provided, wherein the cover plate is disposed on one side of the storage frame and the cover plate is fixed to the storage frame by the adjustment structure.

[0009] A limiting structure is provided at the bottom of the storage frame.

[0010] Furthermore, the thermometer body has rotating shafts fixed to the top two side walls, and the other end of the rotating shafts is rotatably connected to the bottom two side inner walls of the storage frame.

[0011] Furthermore, a groove is provided at one middle end of the bottom of the storage frame, the groove corresponding to the measuring probe on the thermometer body, and a limiting structure at the bottom of the storage frame is provided on one side of the groove.

[0012] Furthermore, the limiting structure includes a limiting rod, a spring, a push plate, and a stop rod. The limiting rod is sleeved with a spring, and one end of the limiting rod and the spring is fixed to the inner side wall of the storage frame corresponding to the groove.

[0013] Furthermore, a push plate is fixed to one end of the limiting rod and spring near the groove, and a stop bar is fixed to the other side wall of the push plate, with the stop bar positioned at the top of the groove.

[0014] Furthermore, the adjustment structure includes a fixing block, a connecting rod, a mounting plate, a threaded rod, a fixing plate, a threaded ring, a scale, and a baffle. The fixing block is symmetrically fixed to the bottom of both sides of the cover plate. The cover plate is slidably connected to the opening end of the storage frame. A handle is fixed to the top of the cover plate near the pump of the storage frame.

[0015] Furthermore, the connecting rods are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the storage frame. One end of the connecting rod is fixed to a corresponding fixing block on the side wall of the cover plate, and the other end of the connecting rod is fixed to both ends of the mounting plate. The mounting plate is arranged on the side of the storage frame away from the cover plate.

[0016] Furthermore, a threaded rod is slidably connected to one end of the mounting plate near the storage frame, and a fixing plate is fixed to the bottom end of the threaded rod. One end of the fixing plate is fixed to the bottom side wall of the storage frame.

[0017] Furthermore, a scale is fixed on a fixing plate on one side of the threaded rod. The top of the scale passes through the mounting plate and is slidably connected to the mounting plate. Both the scale and the top of the threaded rod are fixed to the bottom of the baffle.

[0018] Furthermore, threaded rings are threadedly connected to the threaded rods on both sides of the mounting plate.

[0019] The advantages of this application are:

[0020] 1. Rotate the thermometer body into the storage frame. The storage frame has a cover plate fixed to it via an adjustment mechanism. When using the thermometer, rotate the threaded ring until it reaches the top of the threaded rod, then slide the cover plate upwards to fully expose the thermometer. Rotate the thermometer again until the probe is at the bottom of the storage frame. Then move the cover plate to adjust its height according to the temperature of the item to be measured. Determine the length of the cover plate by the position of the mounting plate on the scale, and fix the mounting plate with the threaded ring to secure it. This extends the distance between the end of the cover plate and the probe, ensuring a safe position for the operator and preventing burns. After measurement, push the push plate in the limiting structure to push the stop bar to the groove side. Rotate the thermometer body to store it in the storage frame. Rotate the threaded ring again to lower the cover plate until it completely covers the opening of the storage frame. Rotate the threaded ring to the bottom of the threaded rod to fix the cover plate, storing the thermometer body in the storage frame for easy transport. Attached Figure Description
