A protective frame 6 is fixedly connected to one side of the lifting frame 5. An inner plate 7 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the protective frame 6. A slider 8 is fixedly connected to the other side of the lifting frame 5. A guide rail 10 is slidably connected to the outer side of the slider 8 through a sliding groove 9. The thermostat 1 is fixedly connected to one side of the guide rail 10. With the help of the U-shaped limiting hole 4, the lifting frame 5 is lowered to the protective frame 6 and the inner plate 7 to cover the button position of the thermostat 1. To adjust the height of the cover, rotate screw 2 clockwise to drive pressure ring 3 to squeeze pad 12, increasing the contact force between pad 12 and one side of lifting frame 5, thereby fixing the position of lifting frame 5. When temperature adjustment is required, rotate screw 2 counterclockwise and loosen it, reducing the pressure of pad 12 on one side of pressure ring 3 on lifting frame 5, thereby loosening lifting frame 5. With the help of U-shaped limiting hole 4, raise the guard frame 6 and inner plate 7 on one side of lifting frame 5 to the required height, exposing the button on one side of temperature controller 1 to the environment. Finally, make adjustments. By covering the button position of temperature controller 1 with guard frame 6 and inner plate 7, the situation of accidental touch by personnel causing fluctuations in the set temperature can be effectively reduced.

[0028] In this utility model, preferably, a lifting button 11 is fixedly connected to one side of the protective frame 6, and a lifting frame 5 is fixedly connected to the other side of the protective frame 6. A screw 2 is movably connected to the inner side of the lifting frame 5 through a limiting hole 4, which can effectively facilitate personnel to hold and move the protective frame 6 up or down. The inner plate 7 is made of transparent acrylic material, and the protective frame 6 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the inner plate 7, which can effectively facilitate personnel to observe the button position of the thermostat 1 first. The slide bar 8 has a T-shaped structure, and the lifting frame 5 is fixedly connected to one side of the slide bar 8, which can effectively reduce the stability of the lifting frame 5 during the sliding process.

The thermostat 1 is fixedly connected to one side of each bracket 13. The guide rail 10 is fixedly connected to one side of the thermostat 1, which can effectively ensure the stability of the guide rail 10 during use.

[0029] In this utility model, preferably, a washer 12 is movably connected to the outside of the screw 2.

[0030] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: In use, the lifting frame 5 is lowered to the height where the protective frame 6 and inner plate 7 cover the button position of the thermostat 1, with the U-shaped limiting hole 4. The screw 2 is rotated clockwise to drive the pressure ring 3 to squeeze the pad 12, increasing the contact force between the pad 12 and one side of the lifting frame 5, thereby fixing the position of the lifting frame 5. When temperature adjustment is required, the screw 2 is rotated counterclockwise and loosened to reduce the pressure of the pad 12 on one side of the pressure ring 3 on the lifting frame 5, thereby loosening the lifting frame 5. With the help of the U-shaped limiting hole 4, the protective frame 6 and inner plate 7 on one side of the lifting frame 5 are raised to the required height, exposing the button on one side of the thermostat 1 to the environment. Finally, the adjustment is performed. By covering the button position of the thermostat 1 with the protective frame 6 and inner plate 7, the situation of accidental touch by personnel causing fluctuations in the set temperature can be effectively reduced.
