Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of temperature measuring guns, and in particular to a thermocouple probe temperature measuring gun. Background Technology
[0002] Thermocouple probe temperature guns work on the principle of the thermoelectric effect. When a temperature difference exists between the ends of two metal conductors of different materials, a potential difference is generated within the conductors. This thermoelectric potential is related to the temperature difference; by measuring the magnitude of the thermoelectric potential, the temperature of the object being measured can be calculated. Thermocouple probe temperature guns combine a thermocouple probe with a portable thermometer, measuring the surface temperature of an object using non-contact or contact methods and displaying the temperature value on a screen.
[0003] A search revealed that CN209513096U discloses a portable temperature measuring gun for steel windows, including a gun-shaped housing and a hollow rod assembly connected to the housing. The rod assembly includes rod I and rod II sleeved inside rod I. A sliding connection is provided at the contact point between rod II and rod I, allowing rod II to reciprocate axially along the sliding connection.
[0004] Existing thermocouple probe temperature guns often have significant limitations in probe angle adjustment. Due to the structure and design of the gun body, the adjustable angle range of the probe is small, making it difficult to meet complex and ever-changing measurement needs. When measuring the temperature of equipment close to a wall, the probe may not be able to be directly aligned with the measurement area due to the size and shape limitations of the gun body itself. Even if the gun body is close to the wall, it is impossible to send the probe into the target position, affecting the accuracy and efficiency of the measurement. The probes of most thermocouple probe temperature guns are not replaceable, which to some extent limits their application flexibility. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the problem that the probe's adjustable angle range is small and cannot meet complex and varied measurement needs, and that when measuring the temperature of a device near a wall, the probe may not be able to be directly aligned with the measurement area due to the size and shape limitations of the gun itself, even if the gun is pressed against the wall, the probe cannot be sent to the target position, affecting the accuracy and efficiency of the measurement, this utility model achieves this through the following technical solution.
[0006] A thermocouple probe temperature gun includes: a temperature gun body;
[0007] A connector is installed on one side of the temperature measuring gun body;
[0008] A rotating seat is connected to the connecting seat and is configured to rotate along the axis of the connecting seat;
[0009] A rotating base is connected to the rotating base, and the rotating base is configured to rotate on the rotating base to drive the thermocouple probe to rotate.
[0010] Thermocouple probe, detachably connected to the rotating base, is used to measure temperature.
[0011] The rotating base includes:
[0012] A bearing is mounted on the rotating seat, and the rotating seat is connected to the inner ring of the bearing.
[0013] The rotating base includes multiple clamping heads, which are arranged in a circumferential array on the rotating base. One end of each clamping head has an inclined surface and is configured to move towards or away from the center of the rotating base simultaneously to fix the position of the thermocouple probe on the rotating base.
[0014] It also includes: a control seat, mounted on the rotating seat and configured to move on the rotating seat. The control seat is used to control the movement of the clamping head within the rotating seat during movement. By moving the control seat, the user can easily control the position of the clamping head to tighten or loosen the thermocouple probe.
[0015] The control seat includes: a pressing block, mounted on the control seat, for pressing the clamping head when the control seat moves; a moving block, mounted on the control seat, the rotating seat having a moving groove, the moving block being connected within the moving groove; and an elastic element, one end connected to the moving block and the other end connected to the inner wall of the moving groove, for providing a restoring force after the control seat moves. This allows for the tightening or loosening of the thermocouple probe through simple operation, without the need for additional tools or complex steps. The elastic element provides a restoring force after the control seat moves, enabling the control seat to automatically return to its initial position.
[0016] The rotating base further includes: a connecting groove, which is opened at one end of the rotating base, and one end of the thermocouple probe is connected to the connecting groove; and multiple through holes, which are opened on the inner wall of the connecting groove in a circumferential array, and the clamping head is connected to the through holes.
[0017] The control base has a circular projection shape; the connecting base has a circular projection shape.
[0018] The temperature gun body includes a handle, which is installed at the bottom of the temperature gun body.
[0019] One end of the thermocouple probe is equipped with a conductive head, and a terminal is installed on the clamping head, with the terminal in contact with the conductive head; one end of the terminal is connected to a compensating wire, and the other end of the compensating wire passes through the rotating base and is connected to the temperature measuring gun body.
[0020] This invention provides a thermocouple probe temperature measuring gun. Compared with the prior art, it has the following advantages:
[0021] By designing a mechanism that combines a rotating base and a rotary base, the adjustable angle range of the thermocouple probe is increased. Users can not only rotate the probe along the axis of the connecting base by rotating the rotary base, but also further adjust the specific angle of the probe on the rotary base by rotating the rotary base. This easily meets complex and ever-changing measurement needs, allowing the probe to be flexibly aligned with various hard-to-reach measurement areas, thus improving the accuracy and efficiency of the measurement. By adjusting the angle and position of the probe, the thermocouple probe can be directly aligned with and measured in the target area. Even if the probe body is close to the wall, the user can still move the probe to the target position by rotating and turning the probe. Attached Figure Description

[0034] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0035] The following specific examples illustrate the implementation of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this utility model from the content disclosed in this specification. This utility model can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and various details in this specification can also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of this utility model.
[0036] Reference Figures 1-5 A thermocouple probe temperature gun includes: a temperature gun body 100, which serves as the main body of the entire temperature gun, providing stable support and an operating platform, and integrating necessary circuits and a display system, enabling users to easily read temperature data and perform operations; and a connector 200, which is installed on one side of the temperature gun body 100.
[0037] A rotating seat 300 is connected to the connecting seat 200, and the rotating seat 300 is configured to rotate along the axis of the connecting seat 200;
[0038] A rotating seat 400 is connected to the rotating seat 300. The rotating seat 400 is connected to the rotating seat 300 and is configured to rotate on the rotating seat 300 to drive the thermocouple probe 500 to rotate.
[0039] Thermocouple probe 500 is detachably connected to rotating base 400. Thermocouple probe 500 is used for temperature measurement. As the core component of temperature measurement, its detachable design facilitates replacement and maintenance, improving the flexibility and lifespan of the temperature gun. Thermocouple probe 500 can accurately sense and measure the target temperature, providing reliable data support for users. Connecting base 200 has a circular projected shape, serving as a bridge between rotating base 400 and temperature gun body 100. This ensures that rotating base 400 can be securely mounted on temperature gun body 100 while allowing for rotation. Rotating base 400 includes multiple clamping heads 403 arranged in a circumferential array, all positioned to simultaneously move towards the center of rotating base 400. The rotating base 400 is used to fix the position of the thermocouple probe 500 on the rotating base 400. The rotating base 300 is connected to the connecting base 200 and is configured to rotate along the axis of the connecting base 200. The rotating base 400 is connected to the rotating base 300 and is configured to rotate on the rotating base 300 to drive the thermocouple probe 500 to rotate. The rotating base 400 and the rotating base 300 realize multi-angle measurement of the thermocouple probe 500. Multiple clamping heads 403 are distributed in a circumferential array. One end of the clamping head 403 is formed with a bevel, which can firmly fix the thermocouple probe 500 and prevent loosening or displacement during the measurement process, ensuring the accuracy of the measurement results. The rotation function of the rotating base 400 and the rotating base 300 allows the user to easily adjust the direction of the thermocouple probe 500 to adapt to the measurement needs of different angles and positions.
[0040] The rotating base 300 includes a bearing 301 mounted on the rotating base 300, and the rotating base 400 is connected to the inner ring of the bearing 301. By rotating the rotating base 300, the user can measure the temperature of different areas or targets around the device without moving the temperature measuring gun body 100, which improves measurement efficiency and convenience. The bearing 301 provides smooth and stable rotation support for the rotating base 400. The low friction characteristics of the bearing 301 reduce resistance and wear during rotation, extend the service life of the temperature measuring gun, and ensure that the rotating base 400 can rotate smoothly at multiple angles.
[0041] A control seat 600, mounted on a rotating seat 400, is configured to move on the rotating seat 400. The projected shape of the control seat 600 is annular. The control seat 600 is used to control the movement of the clamping head 403 within the rotating seat 400 during movement. The control seat 600 includes: a pressing block 601, mounted on the control seat 600, used to press the clamping head 403 when moving with the control seat 600; a moving block 602, mounted on the control seat 600, with a moving groove 404 formed on the rotating seat 400, and the moving block 602 connected within the moving groove 404; and an elastic element 603, one end connected to the moving block 602 and the other end connected to the inner wall of the moving groove 404, used to provide a restoring force after the control seat 600 moves. Through the movement of the control seat 600, the user can easily control the position of the clamping head 403 to tighten or loosen the thermocouple probe 500. This design not only improves the ease of operation of the temperature gun but also ensures the stability and reliability of the thermocouple probe 500 during measurement. The elastic element 603 uses a stainless steel spring, but elastic rubber can also be used. The compression block 601 is mounted on the control base 600 and compresses the clamping head 403 as the control base 600 moves. This design allows users to tighten or loosen the thermocouple probe 500 with simple operations, without the need for additional tools or complicated steps. The moving block 602 slides in the moving groove 404 on the rotating base 400, providing guidance and support for the movement of the control base 600. The elastic element 603 provides a restoring force after the control base 600 moves, allowing the control base 600 to automatically return to its initial position. This not only ensures the accuracy and stability of the movement of the control base 600 but also improves the service life and reliability of the temperature gun.
[0042] The rotating base 400 also includes: a connecting groove 401, which is opened at one end of the rotating base 400, and one end of the thermocouple probe 500 is connected to the connecting groove 401; a plurality of through holes 402, which are opened on the inner wall of the connecting groove 401 in a circumferential array, and a clamping head 403 is connected to the through holes 402.
[0043] The temperature gun body 100 includes a handle 101, which is installed at the bottom of the temperature gun body 100.
[0044] A conductive head 501 is installed at one end of the thermocouple probe 500, and a terminal 405 is installed on the clamping head 403. The terminal 405 is in contact with the conductive head 501. One end of the terminal 405 is connected to a compensating wire 406, and one end of the compensating wire 406 passes through the rotating seat 400 and is connected to the temperature measuring gun body 100. When the clamping head 403 clamps the thermocouple probe 500, its terminal 405 is in contact with the conductive head 501. The thermocouple probe 500 is connected to the temperature measuring gun body 100 through the compensating wire 406. Based on the thermoelectric effect (Seebeck effect), that is, when two different conductors or semiconductors are connected to form a circuit, if there is a temperature difference between the two ends, a thermoelectric electromotive force will be generated in the circuit. The temperature can be calculated by measuring this electromotive force.
[0045] During use, the user pushes the control seat 600, which causes the moving block 602 to press against the elastic element 603 within the moving groove 404. Simultaneously, the control seat 600 also causes the pressing block 601 to disengage from the clamping head 403, releasing the clamping head 403's limit. After the thermocouple probe 500 is installed in the connecting groove 401, the control seat 600 is released. Under the restoring force of the elastic element 603, the pressing block 601 moves back to its original position with the control seat 600, pressing against the clamping head 403. The clamping head 403, after being pressed, moves towards the center of the rotating seat 400, firmly clamping the thermocouple probe 500 and preventing loosening or displacement during measurement. The moving block 602 slides within the moving groove 404 on the rotating seat 400, providing guidance for the movement of the control seat 600. The user adjusts the direction of the thermocouple probe 500 as needed, first by rotating the rotating seat... The rotating base 400 and its thermocouple probe 500 can rotate along the axis of the connecting base 200, thereby covering a wider measurement area. Then, based on the rotating base 300, the user can further adjust the specific angle of the thermocouple probe 500 by rotating the rotating base 400 to meet the measurement needs of different positions or angles. The user aligns the thermocouple probe 500 with the target to be measured. The temperature gun senses and measures the target temperature through the thermocouple probe 500, transmits the temperature data to the circuit system in the temperature gun body 100 for processing, and displays it on the display system. The user reads the temperature data through the display system on the temperature gun body 100 and records or further processes it as needed. After the measurement is completed, the user can release the clamping head 403 by pushing the control base 600, and easily remove the thermocouple probe 500 from the rotating base 400 for replacement, cleaning, or maintenance.
[0046] In summary, compared with existing technologies, it has the following beneficial effects:
[0047] By designing a mechanism that combines the rotating base 400 and the rotating base 300, the adjustable angle range of the thermocouple probe 500 is increased. Users can not only rotate the rotating base 300 along the axis of the connecting base 200, but also further adjust the specific angle of the probe on the rotating base 300 by rotating the rotating base 400. This allows for easy handling of complex and ever-changing measurement needs, enabling the probe to be flexibly aligned with various hard-to-reach measurement areas, thus improving the accuracy and efficiency of the measurement.
[0048] By adjusting the angle and position of the probe, the thermocouple probe 500 can be directly aligned with and measure the target area. Even if the gun body is close to the wall, the user can rotate and turn the probe to send it into the target position, effectively solving the limitations of traditional temperature guns when measuring near walls.
[0049] By setting multiple clamping heads 403 on the rotating seat 400, the thermocouple probe 500 is securely clamped, ensuring that the probe will not loosen or shift during the measurement process, thus improving the stability and reliability of the measurement and facilitating the replacement of different thermocouple probes 500.
