Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pressure gauge technology, and more specifically, to a pressure gauge mounting structure. Background Technology

[0002] Figure 5 The old-style pressure gauge mounting structure requires the following components: pressure gauge 1, U-clamp 7, and locking nut 8. During installation, first, the pressure gauge 1 is placed into the mounting hole of the mounting panel 6, then the U-clamp 7 is installed into the slot of the pressure gauge connector 9, and finally, the pressure gauge is fixed to the mounting panel 6 using the locking nut 8. The current pressure gauge mounting structure has the following disadvantages:

[0003] 1. It requires many parts and has high costs.

[0004] 2. The U-shaped clamp and connector are prone to falling off when exposed to vibration. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as the large number of installation parts and their easy detachment, and to provide a pressure gauge installation structure to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0007] A pressure gauge mounting structure includes a pressure gauge, the top of which has a fixed limiting plate, and the two sides of the pressure gauge are symmetrically distributed with toothed buckles.

[0008] Furthermore, the buckle has two sides, upper and lower, with a protrusion at one end of the two sides. The other end of the side below the protrusion gradually approaches the pressure gauge, and teeth are formed on the side above the protrusion, with the other end of the teeth gradually approaching the pressure gauge.

[0009] Furthermore, a groove corresponding to the buckle is formed on the side of the pressure gauge.

[0010] Furthermore, the bottom of the buckle is integrally formed with the pressure gauge, and the other side of the buckle is partially located in a groove.

[0011] Furthermore, the pressure gauge is mounted on a mounting panel.

[0012] Furthermore, the normal spacing between the tips of the teeth on both sides of the pressure gauge is greater than the diameter of the central mounting hole on the mounting panel.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution provided by this utility model has the following advantages:

[0014] This invention features buckles on both sides, each buckle having a protrusion and two beveled surfaces for easy installation. During installation, the mounting panel moves upward along the beveled surface below the protrusion, gradually squeezing the buckle to deform and retract into the groove. After the mounting panel passes the protrusion, the buckle returns to its original shape due to its elasticity. The teeth of the buckle lock the mounting panel in place, making the installation more secure and less prone to falling off. This invention only features buckles, with no extra parts, saving costs. During installation, the pressure gauge can be directly inserted into the hole in the mounting panel, completing the process in one step. Installation is convenient and requires no extra steps.

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] To further understand the content of this utility model, a detailed description of this utility model will be provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0023] See Figures 1-4A pressure gauge mounting structure includes a pressure gauge 1. The top of the pressure gauge 1 has a fixed limiting plate 2. When the pressure gauge 1 is installed, the length and width of the limiting plate 2 are both greater than the diameter of the central mounting hole of the mounting panel 6. This ensures that the limiting plate 2 limits the mounting panel 6 from above, preventing the pressure gauge 1 from falling off. The two sides of the pressure gauge 1 are symmetrically distributed with toothed buckles 3. The buckles 3 can lock the mounting panel 6 through the teeth 4, ensuring the installation is secure.

[0024] Specifically, the buckle 3 has two sides, upper and lower, and the connection point at one end of the two sides has a protrusion (such as...). Figure 1 As shown at point A), the side surface downwards from the convex point (as shown in point A). Figure 1 The other end of a) gradually approaches the pressure gauge 1 to form an incline, which facilitates the installation panel 6 to move upward from below the pressure gauge 1. The installation panel 6 can move upward from the bottom of the inclined side a. After the installation panel 6 passes the protrusion, it enters the tooth 4. The tooth 4 is formed on the side above the protrusion. The other end of the tooth 4 gradually approaches the pressure gauge 1. The tooth 4 clamps the installation panel 6 to prevent the installation panel 6 from falling off.

[0025] It should be noted that the side of the pressure gauge 1 has a groove 5 corresponding to the buckle 3. The buckle 3 is made of ABS plastic, and the casing of the pressure gauge 1 is also made of ABS plastic. The buckle 3 and the casing of the pressure gauge 1 are integrally injection molded. The buckle 3 made of ABS plastic has high elasticity and toughness. When the mounting panel 6 is installed, it will squeeze the buckle 3 into the pressure gauge 1, and the buckle 3 will shrink into the groove 5.

[0026] In this embodiment, the bottom of the buckle 3 is integrally formed with the pressure gauge 1, and the other side of the buckle 3 is partially located in the groove 5, with space left in the groove 5 for the buckle 3 to retract.

[0027] Pressure gauge 1 is installed on mounting panel 6. The spacing between the top of the teeth 4 on both sides of pressure gauge 1 in the normal state (when buckle 3 is not squeezed by external force) is greater than the diameter of the central mounting hole of mounting panel 6. This ensures the clamping force of the teeth 4 of buckle 3 on mounting panel 6.

[0028] Installation principle: During installation, the pressure gauge 1 is directly inserted into the hole of the mounting panel 6. The mounting panel 6 moves upward from the bottom of the pressure gauge 1, along the inclined surface of the side a of the buckle 3. As the mounting panel 6 moves upward along the inclined surface, the buckle 3 is deformed by the squeezing force and contracts into the groove 5. When it moves to the protrusion, since the protrusion is farthest from the pressure gauge 1, the squeezing force on the buckle 3 is the greatest at the protrusion. As the mounting panel 6 continues to move upward, the slope of the inclined surface above the protrusion decreases, and the buckle 3 returns to its original shape under the action of elasticity. The teeth 4 of the buckle 3 lock the mounting panel 6, thus completing the installation process.
