Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of temperature sensor technology, and in particular relates to a temperature sensor that is easy to assemble and fix. Background Technology

[0002] A temperature sensor is a device that can sense changes in external temperature and convert the physical quantity of temperature into an electrical signal or other measurable signal. It is widely used in industrial control, environmental monitoring, home appliances, automotive electronics and other fields. Its basic function is to collect and feedback temperature information to ensure that the equipment or system operates within a safe and stable temperature range.

[0003] Existing temperature sensors lack a mechanism for easy assembly and fixation. The problems with the aforementioned technologies are that existing temperature sensors are inconvenient to assemble and fix in practical applications. They lack a mechanism that is structurally sound, easy to operate, and can achieve rapid installation and reliable fixation. This results in defects such as low installation efficiency, inaccurate positioning, and poor stability during use. On the one hand, traditional installation methods usually rely on screw fastening or snap-fit ​​connections, which are not only cumbersome and time-consuming, but also prone to loosening under vibration or dynamic environments, affecting measurement accuracy. On the other hand, some sensors lack effective limiting and clamping structures, making it difficult to adapt to installation environments of different sizes or shapes, thus limiting their applicability. In addition, the disassembly and maintenance process is also relatively complex, increasing the later maintenance costs. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a temperature sensor that can overcome or at least partially solve the above problems and is easy to assemble and fix.

[0005] This utility model is implemented as follows: a temperature sensor that is easy to assemble and fix includes a mounting plate and a temperature sensor. The inner wall of the mounting plate is in contact with the lower surface of the temperature sensor. Limiting mechanisms are provided on both sides of the upper end of the mounting plate, and auxiliary mechanisms are provided on the limiting mechanisms.

[0006] The limiting mechanism is used to fix the temperature sensor;

[0007] The auxiliary mechanism is used to further secure the temperature sensor.

[0008] To improve work efficiency, preferably, the limiting mechanism includes a connecting rod, a fixed plate, a spring, a guide block, a limiting block, a baffle, a fixed ring, and an elastic block. The surface of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixed plate, the surface of the fixed plate is fixedly connected to the front end of the spring, the rear end of the spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the guide block, the rear end of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to the surface of the limiting block, the surface of the limiting block is in contact with the surface of the baffle, the lower surface of the baffle is fixedly connected to the upper two sides of the fixed ring, and the lower surface of the fixed ring is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the elastic block. The fixed plate can serve as a force transmission medium between the connecting rod and the spring, forming a structure that can generate elastic displacement along the inner wall of the guide block. With this setting, the spring can store elastic potential energy under compression and drive the connecting rod to move the limiting block in a predetermined direction when released, thereby realizing the automatic clamping function.

[0009] To improve vibration resistance after installation, the auxiliary mechanism preferably includes a support plate, a guide rod, an auxiliary plate, and an adjusting screw. The inner walls on both sides of the support plate are fixedly connected to the lower end of the guide rod. The surface of the guide rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the auxiliary plate. The inner wall of the auxiliary plate is threadedly connected to the surface of the adjusting screw. By rotating the adjusting screw, the auxiliary plate can be moved up and down on the guide rod, allowing the operator to flexibly adjust the pressing position of the auxiliary plate according to the actual size of the temperature sensor and the installation requirements. This ensures that the lower surface of the auxiliary plate is tightly attached to the top of the temperature sensor, achieving pressing and fixing of the sensor and forming a multi-point stable support structure including top pressing and lateral clamping.

[0010] To improve the reliability of the device, preferably, a stop plate is provided at the upper end of the guide rod, and the inner wall of the stop plate is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the guide rod. The surface of the mounting plate is provided with a guide groove. The stop plate can effectively limit the displacement range of the auxiliary plate when it moves along the guide rod, preventing the auxiliary plate from falling out or deviating during the lifting process. As part of the limit, the stop plate contacts the auxiliary plate when it rises to the limit position, playing a limiting role and avoiding damage to components caused by over-adjustment.

[0011] To improve assembly efficiency, preferably, the surface of the connecting rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the guide block, the lower end of the elastic block is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting plate, and the surface of the limiting block is in contact with the inner walls on both sides of the temperature sensor. The elastic block can stably store reset energy under pressure and push the fixing ring and baffle back to the initial position when it needs to be released, thereby realizing the automatic reset function of the baffle and simplifying the disassembly operation process.

[0012] To improve the service life of the adjusting screw, preferably, the lower end of the bearing plate is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the limiting block, the lower surface of the auxiliary plate is in contact with the upper surface of the bearing plate, and the lower end of the adjusting screw is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the bearing plate. During rotation, the adjusting screw does not move with the up and down movement of the auxiliary plate, but only rotates relative to the auxiliary plate, thereby ensuring the effective operation of the threaded transmission and avoiding transmission errors caused by screw wobbling or eccentricity.

[0013] To improve the stability of the baffle's moving path, preferably, the lower surfaces of both auxiliary plates are in contact with the upper surface of the temperature sensor, the lower surface of the stop plate is in contact with the upper surface of the auxiliary plates, the inner wall of the guide groove is slidably connected to the surface of the fixing ring, and the surface of the bearing plate is in contact with the two side surfaces of the temperature sensor. The baffle can move smoothly in the guide groove, ensuring the guiding accuracy and smooth movement of the baffle during its retraction and extension, and avoiding phenomena such as jamming and deflection.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] This invention comprises a limiting mechanism, an auxiliary mechanism, a fixing plate, a spring, a limiting block, a baffle, an elastic block, a guide rod, an auxiliary plate, and an adjusting screw. The limiting mechanism secures the temperature sensor, and the auxiliary mechanism further secures the temperature sensor. The fixing plate serves as a force transmission medium between the connecting rod and the spring, forming a structure capable of elastic displacement along the inner wall of the guide block. This design allows the spring to store elastic potential energy under compression and, upon release, drive the connecting rod to move the limiting block in a predetermined direction, achieving automatic clamping. Rotating the adjusting screw allows the auxiliary plate to be positioned on the guide rod. The downward displacement allows operators to flexibly adjust the clamping position of the auxiliary plate according to the actual size and installation requirements of the temperature sensor, thereby ensuring that its lower surface fits tightly against the top of the temperature sensor and achieves clamping and fixing of the sensor. This forms a multi-point stable support structure including top clamping and lateral clamping, which solves the problems of inconvenient installation, complex operation, and poor stability faced by existing temperature sensors in applications. Traditional installation relies on screws or clips, which is time-consuming and prone to loosening, affecting accuracy. At the same time, the lack of a limiting clamping structure that can adapt to different installation environments limits the scope of application, and the disassembly and maintenance process is complicated, increasing maintenance costs.

[0021] To further understand the invention content, features and effects of this utility model, the following embodiments are provided, and detailed descriptions are given in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0022] The structure of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, this utility model provides a temperature sensor that is easy to assemble and fix, including a mounting plate 5 and a temperature sensor 6. The inner wall of the mounting plate 5 is in contact with the lower surface of the temperature sensor 6. Limiting mechanisms 1 are provided on both sides of the upper end of the mounting plate 5. An auxiliary mechanism 2 is provided on the limiting mechanism 1. The limiting mechanism 1 is used to fix the temperature sensor 6, and the auxiliary mechanism 2 is used to further fix the temperature sensor 6. The limiting mechanism 1 includes a connecting rod 101, a fixing plate 102, a spring 103, a guide block 104, a limiting block 105, a baffle 106, a fixing ring 107, and an elastic block 108. The surface of the connecting rod 101 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixing plate 102, the surface of the fixing plate 102 is fixedly connected to the front end of the spring 103, and the rear end of the spring 103 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixing plate 102. The guide block 104 is fixedly connected to the inner wall. The rear end of the connecting rod 101 is fixedly connected to the surface of the limiting block 105. The surface of the limiting block 105 contacts the surface of the baffle 106. The lower surface of the baffle 106 is fixedly connected to the upper two sides of the fixing ring 107. The lower surface of the fixing ring 107 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the elastic block 108. The fixing plate 102 can serve as a force transmission medium between the connecting rod 101 and the spring 103, forming a structure that can generate elastic displacement along the inner wall of the guide block 104. With this setting, the spring 103 can store elastic potential energy under compression and drive the connecting rod 101 to move the limiting block 105 in a predetermined direction when released, realizing the automatic clamping function. The auxiliary mechanism 2 includes a bearing plate 201, a guide rod 202, and an auxiliary plate. The auxiliary plate 203 and adjusting screw 204 are fixedly connected to the lower end of the guide rod 202 on both sides of the bearing plate 201. The surface of the guide rod 202 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the auxiliary plate 203. The inner wall of the auxiliary plate 203 is threadedly connected to the surface of the adjusting screw 204. By rotating the adjusting screw 204, the auxiliary plate 203 can be moved up and down on the guide rod 202. This allows the operator to flexibly adjust the pressing position of the auxiliary plate 203 according to the actual size and installation requirements of the temperature sensor 6, so that its lower surface is tightly attached to the top of the temperature sensor 6, thereby pressing and fixing the sensor, forming a multi-point stable support structure including top pressing and lateral clamping. A stop plate 3 is provided at the upper end of the guide rod 202. The inner wall of the stop plate 3 is connected to the upper surface of the guide rod 202. The mounting plate 5 is fixedly connected, and a guide groove 4 is provided on its surface. The stop plate 3 effectively limits the displacement range of the auxiliary plate 203 when it moves along the guide rod 202, preventing the auxiliary plate 203 from coming off or shifting during lifting. As part of the limit, the stop plate 3 contacts the auxiliary plate 203 when it rises to its limit position, thus limiting the movement and preventing damage to components due to over-adjustment. The surface of the connecting rod 101 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the guide block 104. The lower end of the elastic block 108 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting plate 5. The surface of the limit block 105 contacts the inner walls on both sides of the temperature sensor 6. The elastic block 108 can stably store reset energy under pressure and push the fixing ring 107 and the baffle 106 back to the initial position when it needs to be released.The system enables automatic reset of the baffle 106, simplifying the disassembly process. The lower end of the support plate 201 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the limit block 105. The lower surface of the auxiliary plate 203 contacts the upper surface of the support plate 201. The lower end of the adjusting screw 204 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the support plate 201. During rotation, the adjusting screw 204 does not move up and down with the auxiliary plate 203, only rotating relative to it, thus ensuring effective operation of the threaded transmission and avoiding transmission errors caused by screw wobbling or eccentricity. The lower surfaces of both auxiliary plates 203 contact the upper surface of the temperature sensor 6, the lower surface of the stop plate 3 contacts the upper surface of the auxiliary plate 203, the inner wall of the guide groove 4 is slidably connected to the surface of the fixing ring 107, and the surface of the support plate 201 contacts both sides of the temperature sensor 6. The baffle 106 can move smoothly within the guide groove 4, ensuring guiding accuracy and smooth movement of the baffle 106 during retraction and extension, and preventing jamming or skewness.

[0024] The working principle of this utility model:

[0025] When assembling the temperature sensor 6, first fix the mounting plate 5 in the predetermined position to ensure it corresponds to the object being measured or the measurement area. Then, insert the temperature sensor 6 into the corresponding slot on the mounting plate 5 to complete the initial positioning. To achieve a stable fixation of the temperature sensor 6, the operator needs to press the baffle 106 on the mounting plate 5, causing the fixing ring 107 at the lower end of the baffle 106 to move vertically downward along the guide groove 4, while simultaneously retracting the baffle 106 into the guide groove 4. During this process, the limiting block 105, which was originally blocked by the baffle 106, loses its blocking force and begins to move under the action of the connecting rod 101 connected to it. Due to the elastic restoring force of the spring 103, the connecting rod 101 will slide along the inner wall of the guide block 104 through the fixing plate 102 fixed on it, thereby moving the limiting block 105 towards the temperature sensor 6 until its surface is tightly attached to the inner walls on both sides of the temperature sensor 6, achieving lateral clamping and fixing of the sensor. To further enhance the reliability of the fixation, the limiting block 105 can be further clamped and fixed by pressing the fixing ring 107 at the lower end of the mounting plate 106. Rotate the adjusting screw 204 at the upper support plate 201 of the 5. The adjusting screw 204 is threadedly engaged with the inner wall of the auxiliary plate 203. By rotating the screw, the auxiliary plate 203 can be driven to move vertically downward along the surface of the guide rod 202, so that its lower surface contacts the top of the temperature sensor 6, thereby achieving the clamping and fixing of the top of the sensor and forming a multi-point stable support. When the temperature sensor 6 needs to be replaced or maintained, the operator can first pull the connecting rods 101 on both sides of the upper end of the mounting plate 5 to move them to the left and right respectively, releasing the restriction on the baffle 106. At this time, under the elastic restoring force of the elastic block 108, the baffle 106 will push the fixing ring 107 to drive the baffle 106 out of the guide groove 4 and return to the initial state. Then, release the connecting rod 101, and the limiting block 105 will re-contact the surface of the baffle 106 in the reset state, releasing the clamping effect on the temperature sensor 6. At this time, the temperature sensor 6 is in a free-moving state, and it can be easily pulled out from the mounting plate 5 to complete the disassembly operation.

[0026] The specific models and specifications of the temperature sensor, spring, elastic block and adjusting screw proposed in this application need to be selected and determined according to the actual specifications of the device. The specific selection and calculation methods adopt the existing technology in this field, so they will not be described in detail here.
