[0021] In existing technologies, thermocouples require ceramic clay heads. Now, paper tubes are used instead, which not only saves costs and is easy and simple to manufacture, but also better protects internal components. Paper tubes conduct heat slowly, resulting in more accurate temperature measurement.
[0022] In this embodiment, a fixing frame 12 is provided on the top wall of the bracket 4, and the quartz tube 7 is installed on the fixing frame 12. The fixing frame 12 is provided in this embodiment to realize the installation and fixation of the quartz tube 7.
[0023] In this embodiment, a metal protective cap 9 is installed on the top wall of the high-temperature resistant material 8. The top wall of the metal protective cap 9 in this embodiment has a through hole.
[0024] In this embodiment, a metal protective cap 9 is provided to protect the internal components of the upper paper tube 2 under normal conditions. The metal protective cap 9 will melt during the molten steel measurement process. A through hole is opened on the top wall of the metal protective cap 9 so that when the metal protective cap 9 has not melted during the measurement process, the molten steel can quickly enter the metal protective cap 9 and come into contact with the measuring components.
[0025] Example 2
[0026] This embodiment further defines the limitations based on Embodiment 1.
[0027] This embodiment also includes a lower paper tube 1 and an outer paper tube 3. The bottom wall of the upper paper tube 2 is in contact with the top wall of the lower paper tube 1. The outer wall of the cylinder 10 is connected to the inner walls of both the lower paper tube 1 and the upper paper tube 2. The inner wall of the outer paper tube 3 is connected to the outer walls of both the upper paper tube 2 and the lower paper tube 1.
[0028] This embodiment also includes a lower paper tube 1 and an outer paper tube 3. The bottom wall of the upper paper tube 2 contacts the top wall of the lower paper tube 1. The cylinder 10 is connected to both the lower paper tube 1 and the upper paper tube 2 to improve the stability of the connection.

[0030] In this embodiment, the outer paper tube 3 is bonded to the upper paper tube 2 and the lower paper tube 1 with adhesive.

Apply glue to the upper part of the cylinder 10, insert the bracket 4 into the upper paper tube 2, pour in the high-temperature resistant material 8, and then fasten the metal protective cap 9 to fix the bracket 4 on the upper paper tube 2. Then apply glue to the lower part of the cylinder 10 and insert the cylinder 10 into the lower paper tube 1 to obtain the finished fast thermocouple. Then apply glue to the upper paper tube 2 and lower paper tube 1 and connect them to the outer paper tube 3 to prevent molten steel from entering through the connection between the upper paper tube 2 and lower paper tube 1.
[0032] Example 3
[0033] This embodiment further defines the limitations based on Embodiment 1.
[0034] In this embodiment, the upper paper tube 2 is set to be relatively long, equivalent to the length of the upper paper tube 2 and the lower paper tube 1 in embodiment 2. Therefore, the lower paper tube 1 and the outer paper tube 3 are not needed during actual installation and production. During production, the upper paper tube 2 is cut to the correct size, high-temperature resistant material 8 is poured onto the bracket 4, a metal protective cap 9 is attached, and then glue is applied to the cylinder 10. The cylinder 10 is then inserted into the upper paper tube 2, resulting in the finished rapid thermocouple. This installation method is simpler and has lower production costs.
