Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipeline temperature measurement equipment technology, specifically, to a pipeline temperature measurement device. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of pipeline temperature measurement equipment technology, traditional pipeline temperature measurement devices mostly adopt adhesive or simple clamp installation methods. Although these installation methods achieve the installation of temperature sensors to a certain extent, they have many shortcomings.

[0003] First, while adhesive installation is convenient, the choice of adhesive and the environment in which it is used significantly affect the accuracy of temperature measurement. The adhesive may fail due to changes in environmental factors such as temperature and humidity, reducing the heat transfer efficiency between the sensor and the pipe wall, thus affecting the accuracy of the temperature measurement. Furthermore, adhesive sensors are easily damaged during installation and removal and are not easily reused, increasing operating costs.

[0004] Secondly, while the simple clamp-type installation method improves sensor stability to some extent, its simple structure makes it difficult to adapt to pipes of different diameters. During installation, different sizes of clamps may be needed to accommodate different pipe diameters, increasing the complexity and cost of the installation. Furthermore, the simple clamp-type installation method has limited effectiveness in securing the sensor; the sensor may loosen or fall off during pipeline operation due to vibration, impact, or other factors, affecting the continuity and accuracy of temperature measurements.

A sensor slot 41 is provided on the surface of the elastic pad 4, and the sensor probe 3 is placed in the sensor slot 41. The pipe temperature measuring device provided by this utility model, such as... Figures 1-4 As shown, its ingenious structural design yields significant technical benefits. The clamp 1 is firmly fixed to the outer wall of the pipe 5, providing a stable mounting base for the sensor assembly 2 and sensor probe 3. The sensor assembly 2 is connected to the sensor probe 3 via wiring, enabling accurate data transmission. The detection surface of the sensor probe 3 is tightly fitted to the outer wall of the pipe 5, ensuring accurate temperature measurement.

The surface of the elastic pad 4 is provided with a sensor slot 41, and the sensor probe 3 is precisely positioned within the sensor slot 41. This design not only allows the sensor probe 3 to be securely mounted on the clamp 1, but also, through the buffering effect of the elastic pad 4, adapts to minor changes in the surface of the pipe 5, maintaining good contact between the sensor probe 3 and the outer wall of the pipe 5, further improving the stability and accuracy of temperature measurement.

[0028] In this embodiment, the clamp 1 includes two semi-circular clamping plates 11, with locking plates 12 installed at both ends of the clamping plates 11. Locking holes 13 are provided on the surface of the locking plates 12, and the locking holes 13 are connected by threaded rods. The ends of the threaded rods are locked and fixed by nuts. This design allows the clamp 1 to adapt to pipes 5 of different diameters. By adjusting the tightness of the threaded rods, the clamp 1 can be firmly fixed to the pipe 5, improving the stability and applicability of the device.

[0029] Specifically, the sensor assembly 2 includes a housing 21, with a cover 22 detachably mounted on the back of the housing 21, and a processing chip installed inside the housing 21. This design makes the internal structure of the sensor assembly 2 easy to maintain and upgrade. The processing chip can be easily replaced or repaired by removing the cover 22, improving the maintainability and scalability of the device.

[0030] Furthermore, a threaded hole 15 is provided at the bottom of the groove 14. A threaded tube is installed on the end of the housing 21 near the threaded hole 15. The threaded tube is threadedly connected to the threaded hole 15. The wiring of the sensor probe 3 passes through the threaded tube and is electrically connected to the processing chip inside the housing 21. This design achieves a reliable connection between the sensor probe 3 and the sensor assembly 2.

[0032] Furthermore, a switch button is installed at the bottom of the housing 21 to control the on / off operation of the sensor probe 3. This design allows the operator to easily control the working status of the sensor probe 3, improving the ease of use and flexibility of the device.

[0033] Furthermore, the elastic pad 4 is made of sponge material. Sponge material has good elasticity and cushioning properties, which can adapt to minor changes on the surface of pipe 5, maintain good contact between sensor probe 3 and the outer wall of pipe 5, and improve the stability and accuracy of temperature measurement.

[0034] Furthermore, the front end of the sensor probe 3 is equipped with a thermally conductive silicone grease patch to improve heat conduction efficiency and reduce contact thermal resistance. This design enables the sensor probe 3 to detect temperature changes in the pipe 5 more quickly, improving the sensitivity and accuracy of temperature measurement.

[0035] In use, the pipe temperature measuring device of this utility model firstly consists of two semi-circular clamping plates 11, with locking plates 12 installed at both ends of the clamping plates 11. Locking holes 13 are provided on the surface of the locking plates 12. The locking holes 13 are connected to a threaded rod and secured with a nut, allowing the clamp 1 to adapt to pipes 5 of different diameters and firmly fixed to the outer wall of the pipe 5. This step provides a stable mounting foundation for the sensor assembly 2 and the sensor probe 3.

[0036] The sensor assembly 2 includes a housing 21, inside which a processing chip is installed to process the temperature data collected by the sensor probe 3. A threaded tube is installed on the side of the housing 21 near the clamp 1, and this threaded tube is threadedly connected to a threaded hole 15 at the bottom of the groove 14 on the inner wall of the clamp 1. The wiring of the sensor probe 3 passes through the threaded tube and is electrically connected to the processing chip inside the housing 21, enabling accurate data transmission.

A sensor slot 41 is provided on the surface of the elastic pad 4, and the sensor probe 3 is precisely positioned in the sensor slot 41. The buffering effect of the elastic pad 4 allows the sensor probe 3 to adapt to minor changes in the surface of the pipe 5 and maintain good contact with the outer wall of the pipe 5. A thermally conductive silicone grease patch is provided at the front end of the sensor probe 3, which improves heat conduction efficiency and reduces contact thermal resistance, enabling the probe to sense temperature changes in the pipe 5 more quickly.

[0038] When the temperature of pipe 5 changes, the sensing surface of sensor probe 3 is in close contact with the outer wall of pipe 5 to accurately sense the temperature change. Sensor probe 3 transmits the collected temperature data to the processing chip inside sensor assembly 2 via a circuit. The processing chip processes the received data and can output or display the processed data as needed.

[0039] A switch button is installed at the bottom of the housing 21, allowing operators to control the operating status of the sensor probe 3 by pressing or releasing the switch button. This design improves the ease of use and flexibility of the device, enabling operators to turn the temperature measurement function on or off at any time as needed.
