[0029] It also includes:

[0030] The lifting block 4 is movably installed in the lifting groove 5 opened on the left side wall of the main body 1. The lifting block 4 is provided with a lifting limit mechanism 6. The upper part of the lifting block 4 is rotatably provided with a lifting rod 7 through a thrust ball bearing.

[0031] The first control ring 9 is movably sleeved on the lifting rod 7, and the first control ring 9 is rotatably set in the rotating groove 10 opened on the left side wall of the main body 1 through the thrust ball bearing. The first spring 12 is fixedly installed in several grooves 11 opened on the bottom wall of the rotating groove 10. The lifting rod 7 is provided with a pitch adjustment mechanism 13 connected to the rotating rod 8.

[0032] The limiting block 14, there are several limiting blocks 14, which are fixedly installed on the upper end of several No. 1 springs 12 respectively. The bottom of the No. 1 control ring 9 is provided with several limiting grooves 15 that cooperate with the limiting blocks 14.

[0033] The lifting and limiting mechanism 6 includes:

[0034] The control plate 6-1 is movably disposed within the lifting block 4. Two second springs 6-2 connected to the control plate 6-1 are fixedly disposed within the lifting block 4. A pressing block 6-3 is movably inserted into the left side of the lifting block 4, with one end of the pressing block 6-3 fixedly connected to the control plate 6-1. Two guide rods 19 are fixedly disposed within the lifting block 4. The second springs 6-2 and the control plate 6-1 are movably sleeved on the guide rods 19. The guide rods 19 not only provide auxiliary guidance for the movement of the control plate 6-1 within the lifting block 4, effectively improving the movement stability of the control plate 6-1, but also prevent the second springs 6-2 from bending during compression, thus affecting their service life.

[0035] Linkage block 6-4, there are two linkage blocks 6-4, respectively located on the front and rear sides of lifting block 4, and linkage block 6-4 is fixedly connected to the side wall of control plate 6-1. Several limiting teeth 6-5 are fixedly installed on the left side wall of linkage block 6-4. Several tooth grooves 18 are opened on the front and rear sides of the left side wall of lifting groove 5. The limiting teeth 6-5 and tooth grooves 18 are engaged and locked. Through the cooperation of lifting limiting mechanism 6, after adjusting the height of lifting rod 7, support rod 2 and probe 3, the height position of lifting block 4 can be limited, so as to prevent lifting block 4, lifting rod 7 and support rod 2 from moving downward due to their own weight, etc., so as to ensure the height position of probe 3.

[0036] The pitch adjustment mechanism 13 includes:

[0037] Worm gear 13-1 is fixedly sleeved on rotating rod 8. Worm 13-2 is rotatably installed in lifting rod 7 through bearing. Worm 13-2 meshes with worm gear 13-1. Bevel gear 13-3 is fixedly sleeved on the lower end of worm 13-2.

[0038] The second control ring 13-4 is rotatably mounted on the lifting rod 7 via a bearing. An inner bevel gear ring 13-5 that meshes with the bevel gear 13-3 is fixedly installed inside the second control ring 13-4.

With the cooperation of the pitch adjustment mechanism 13, the tilt angle of the support rod 2 can be adjusted, and the pitch angle of the probe 3 can be adjusted according to the usage requirements. Furthermore, the self-locking characteristics of the worm gear 13-1 and the worm 13-2 can also prevent the rotating rod 8 from rotating due to the gravity of the support rod 2 and the probe 3.

[0039] When using this invention, hold the main body 1 or handle 21 with your hand, and then press the pressing block 6-3 to the right with your thumb. The pressing block 6-3 drives the control plate 6-1 to move to the right and compresses the second spring 6-2. The control plate 6-1 drives the linkage block 6-4 to move to the right, causing the limiting tooth 6-5 to disengage from the tooth groove 18. Then, you can push the pressing block 6-3 upward, causing the lifting block 4 to drive the lifting rod 7 upward. The lifting rod 7 drives the support rod 2 upward through the rotating rod 8, causing the support rod 2 to move the probe 3 upward from the storage groove, thus adjusting the height of the probe 3. Then, release the pressing block 6-3, causing the second spring 6-2 to return to its original position and extend, moving the control plate 6-1 to the left. The control plate 6-1 drives the limiting tooth 6-5 to move to the left through the linkage block 6-4, thus limiting the movement of the probe 3. The tooth 6-5 is engaged in the corresponding tooth groove 18. Then, the first control ring 9 can be rotated with the thumb. The first control ring 9 drives the lifting rod 7 to rotate through the guide bar 16. The lifting rod 7 drives the support rod 2 to rotate horizontally, adjusting the orientation of the probe 3. With the cooperation of the first spring 12, the limit block 14 and the limit groove 15, the rotation of the first control ring 9 can be self-locked. After that, the second control ring 13-4 can be rotated with the thumb. The second control ring 13-4 drives the inner bevel gear ring 13-5 to rotate. With the meshing of the inner bevel gear ring 13-5 and the bevel gear 13-3, the worm 13-2 can be rotated. The worm 13-2 drives the worm wheel 13-1 to rotate. The worm wheel 13-1 drives the rotating rod 8 to rotate. The rotating rod 8 drives the support rod 2 to flip vertically, adjusting the pitch angle of the probe 3.

[0040] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0041] The lifting limit mechanism 6, controlled by the linkage of the pressing block 6-3, together with the first control ring 9 and the second control ring 13-4 operated by the thumb rotation, can realize the one-handed quick adjustment of the height, horizontal angle and pitch angle of the probe 3. It is especially suitable for complex working conditions in the well where one hand is required to support, and significantly improves the convenience of operation and the safety of operation.

[0042] The probe 3 can be fully embedded in the storage slot of the main body 1. With the magnetic fixing design of the handle 21, the overall size can be greatly reduced, making it easy to carry and store. It also prevents exposed parts from being bumped and damaged during movement, thus extending the service life of the device.

[0043] The guide rod 19 not only provides auxiliary guidance for the movement of the control board 6-1 within the lifting block 4, effectively improving the stability of the movement of the control board 6-1, but also prevents the second spring 6-2 from bending during compression, thus affecting its service life.

[0044] The grip 21 makes it easier for staff to pick up the item, thus improving the convenience of one-handed operation.

[0045] For those skilled in the art, modifications can be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, and equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
