Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of sensor technology, and specifically relates to an underwater multi-probe temperature transmitter and its components. Background Technology

[0002] With the latest developments in sensors, microelectronics, and computers, modern marine research and development have made significant progress. Underwater temperature transmitters are primarily used to measure the surface temperature of the metal hulls of surface equipment (such as ship hulls) or underwater equipment (such as submarines and drilling platforms). They measure whether the underwater metal temperature is affected by movement speed, ocean currents, and pressure, which has extremely important implications for both military and civilian applications.

[0003] Existing underwater temperature transmitters only have one temperature probe, which is in direct contact with the surface of the metal casing being measured. Due to the uneven temperature distribution on the surface of the metal casing, the temperature value measured by a single temperature probe is limited, only reflecting the temperature value at that probe's measuring point, and cannot accurately reflect the temperature value of a large area of ​​the metal casing surface.

[0004] Existing technologies also employ multi-probe solutions, as described in the following patents:

[0005] For example, patent application number CN202022875776.1 discloses a multi-probe segmented temperature transmitter, including a transmitter housing and a metal cover. The temperature transmitter body is fixedly installed inside the transmitter housing, and the housing is also provided with a cover. The transmitter housing is provided with a conductive head, and the conductor of the conductive head is electrically connected to the temperature transmitter body. The conductive head has an external thread on the outer wall surface away from the transmitter housing, and the inner wall surface of the port of the metal cover has an internal thread. The metal cover is threadedly connected to the conductive head. The metal cover is provided with a temperature probe mechanism through wires. The temperature probe mechanism is divided into several temperature probes, and the temperature probes are numbered 1, 2...N respectively.

[0006] For example, patent application number CN202122097279.8 discloses a multi-probe temperature sensor, including an assembly assembly and a temperature sensor body. The assembly assembly includes a distribution cylinder and an orifice plate. The orifice plate is installed on the inner circumference of the distribution cylinder. The orifice plate has multiple mounting holes that are uniformly and vertically opened through it. The temperature sensor body includes probes and a wire groove ring. The wire groove ring is horizontally fixed to the top of the outer circumference of the distribution cylinder. Multiple probes are provided. The multiple probes are uniformly and vertically fixed in the mounting holes of the orifice plate. The multiple probes are connected to the wire groove ring through a transmission line.

[0007] For example, patent application number CN202121886486.5 discloses a multi-head temperature sensor, including a protective shell, a processing unit disposed in the inner cavity of the protective shell, a plurality of probes electrically connected to the processing unit, a shielding chamber disposed on the outer periphery of the probes, a connecting bushing disposed at the connection between the shielding chamber and the protective shell, and a power supply wire electrically connected to the processing unit.

[0008] If multiple temperature probes are installed, since the surface of the metal housing is not entirely flat, there may be gaps between the probe and the metal housing when the temperature probe comes into contact with the metal surface, which may result in insufficient accuracy of the measured temperature value. Summary of the Invention

[0009] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides an underwater multi-probe temperature transmitter and assembly, allowing the temperature probes to be retractable, thus ensuring that the temperature probes remain in close contact with the metal housing. This enables multiple probes to perform high-precision detection, achieving multi-point temperature measurement within a given area. The technical solution is as follows:

[0015] In this embodiment of the invention, the telescopic protrusion 6 has a stepped hole at its center, which is larger at the top and smaller at the bottom, and mates with the temperature probe 2. The stepped hole is coaxially arranged with the telescopic protrusion 6, and the upper part of its larger hole section is a threaded hole with a locking sleeve 8 on it. The temperature probe 2 is located in the lower part of the larger hole section and inside the smaller hole section of the stepped hole. The locking sleeve 8 is coaxially arranged with the threaded hole, and it has a ring structure. Its lower end rests against the top of the temperature probe 2, and its upper end protrudes upward from the telescopic protrusion 6. The lower end of the spring 7 is sleeved on the upper end of the locking sleeve 8.

[0016] Furthermore, in this embodiment of the present invention, the top of the protrusion 5 is coaxially provided with a connecting part, the outer diameter of the connecting part being smaller than the diameter of the protrusion 5; the mounting plate 11 is provided with a second circular hole for the connecting part to pass through and to cooperate with the connecting part; the connecting part is directly fixed to the mounting plate 11 or locked and fixed to the mounting plate 11 by a locking member, the connecting part passes through the second circular hole upwards, the top of the locking member is provided with a wire-passing hole for the wire to pass through and it is located on the upper side of the mounting plate 11, and the top of the spring 7 abuts against the top of the connecting part or the locking member.

[0020] The beneficial effects of the technical solution provided by this utility model embodiment are as follows: This patent fixes the sensor to the medium being measured (usually a metal casing) using a mounting plate. Since the metal casing is not necessarily a flat surface, the telescopic probe plays a crucial role. Multiple temperature probes automatically adjust their telescopic distance according to the varying flatness of the metal casing surface, ensuring that all probes make close contact with the casing. The multiple probes measure the temperature signal (resistance value) and transmit it to the processing unit. The processing unit filters, amplifies, and transmits the signal to an external system via a signal cable. Furthermore, the telescopic structure of this patent is simple in design, facilitates temperature probe replacement, and is easy to install. Attached Figure Description
