Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of inspection equipment technology, and in particular to an inspection equipment compatible with sensors. Background Technology

[0002] Inspection equipment refers to tools used during operational inspections, including: infrared thermometers / thermal imagers, electronic listening devices, combustible gas detectors, vibration sensors, flashlights, etc. Flashlights are indispensable tools for nighttime inspections. Traditional flashlights only provide illumination and lack the ability to detect the surrounding environment. If environmental detection is required, other detection equipment, such as combustible gas detectors, must be carried. Currently, a small number of inspection devices have environmental detection capabilities, but their built-in sensors are mostly soldered to the motherboard or directly connected via dedicated cables, and the sensor type cannot be changed. If different gases need to be detected, multiple specialized devices must be carried, or the entire machine must be disassembled and replaced, resulting in cumbersome operation, low efficiency, and high cost.

[0018] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a full understanding of this utility model. However, this utility model can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this utility model. Therefore, this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0019] In the description of the embodiments of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connection" and "installation" should be interpreted broadly. For example, "connection" can be a detachable connection or a non-detachable connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Furthermore, "connection" can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. "Fixed" means that the relative positional relationship remains unchanged after the connection. The directional terms mentioned in the embodiments of this utility model, such as "inner," "outer," "top," and "bottom," are only for reference to the directions in the accompanying drawings. Therefore, the directional terms used are for better and clearer explanation and understanding of the embodiments of this utility model, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the embodiments of this utility model.

[0020] In this embodiment of the invention, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Therefore, a feature defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature.

[0021] In this embodiment of the utility model, "and / or" is merely a description of the relationship between related objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B can represent three situations: A exists alone, A and B exist simultaneously, and B exists alone. Additionally, the character " / " in this document generally indicates that the preceding and following related objects have an "or" relationship.

[0022] References to "one embodiment" or "some embodiments" as used in this specification mean that one or more embodiments of the present invention include a specific feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with that embodiment. Therefore, the phrases "in one embodiment," "in some embodiments," "in other embodiments," "in still other embodiments," etc., appearing in different parts of this specification do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, but rather mean "one or more, but not all, embodiments," unless otherwise specifically emphasized. The terms "comprising," "including," "having," and variations thereof mean "including but not limited to," unless otherwise specifically emphasized. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0023] like Figures 1-3As shown, this utility model provides a sensor-compatible inspection device, including: a housing 10, in which a sensor 20 is installed, a sensor base plate 14 is provided below the sensor 20, the sensor base plate 14 is detachably fixedly connected to the housing 10, an electrical interface 15 is provided on the sensor base plate 14, and a main board 18 is also provided below the sensor base plate 14, and the sensor base plate 14 is communicatively connected to the main board 18;

[0024] The electrical interface 15 includes a plurality of pin holes 16, which are arranged in a predetermined shape. The pins of the sensor 20 are inserted into the pin holes 16 and connected to the sensor base plate 14.

[0025] Specifically, the sensor base plate 14 and the housing 10 are detachably fixed together by screws. An electrical interface 15 is provided on the sensor base plate 14, which is specifically presented as multiple pin holes 16 arranged in a predetermined shape, such as a circle. The pins of the sensor 20 are inserted into the pin holes 16, forming an electrical connection with the sensor base plate 14. A main board 18 is also provided below the sensor base plate 14. This main board 18 is used to receive and analyze the data detected by the sensor 20, and then send operating commands. The sensor base plate 14 and the main board 18 are connected via a flexible FPC 19, allowing for separation of the connection between the sensor base plate 14 and the main board 18 when needed. In this embodiment, the housing... A placement hole 11 is provided on the housing 10. The sensor 20 is inserted into the pin hole 16 of the sensor base plate 14 through the placement hole 11, and the sensor 20 is located in the placement hole 11. By opening a hole in the housing 10, it is not only convenient to install the sensor 20, but also to avoid the sensor 20. Therefore, it is not necessary to put the entire sensor 20 into the housing 10, which can reduce the volume of the housing 10. In order to avoid the sensor 20 being exposed, a decorative part 12 is detachably connected to the placement hole 11 by screws or other fasteners to cover the sensor 20 inside the housing 10. At the same time, in order to facilitate the sensor 20 to obtain external information, several through holes 13 are provided on the decorative part 12, which can not only play a role in heat dissipation, but also do not obstruct the sensor 20 from obtaining external information.

[0026] Furthermore, to facilitate the adaptation of different sensors 20 to the sensor base plate 14, the pin holes 16 include, but are not limited to, power pins, ground pins, analog signal output pins, and / or digital communication bus pins. This enables the sensor base plate 14 to provide the necessary electrical connection support for the vast majority of sensors 20. Meanwhile, the motherboard 18 has a built-in automatic sensor 20 identification function. When a new sensor 20 module is inserted, the motherboard 18 reads the ID information inside the module and automatically switches to the corresponding communication protocol and data processing program, achieving plug-and-play functionality.

[0027] Based on the above, the sensor 20 can be an ambient gas sensor 20, such as a combustible gas sensor 20, a toxic gas sensor 20 (CO, H2S), a VOCs sensor 20, an O2 sensor 20, a CO2 sensor 20, an air quality (PM2.5 / PM10) sensor 20, etc.; it can also be a meteorological parameter sensor 20, such as a temperature and humidity sensor 20, an atmospheric pressure sensor 20, a wind speed sensor 20, a wind direction sensor 20, an illuminance sensor 20, etc.; it can also be a physical phenomenon sensor 20, such as a noise sensor 20 (microphone), a vibration sensor 20, an ultrasonic sensor 20, an infrared sensor 20 (PIR), etc.; it can also be an optical radiation sensor 20, such as an ultraviolet (UV) sensor 20, an ambient light sensor 20, a nuclear radiation sensor 20 (Geiger counter), etc., or a metal detection sensor 20, etc., depending on the application requirements.

[0028] Furthermore, to ensure the stability and reliability of the connection between the sensor 20 and the sensor base plate 14, an elastic contact spring 17 is provided in each pin hole 16. The elastic contact spring 17 can adaptively clamp pins of different thicknesses through its own elastic deformation to ensure that sufficient contact pressure is provided and to avoid poor contact or loose connection caused by tolerance, vibration and impact. To improve corrosion resistance and conductivity, gold or tin can be plated on the surface of the elastic contact spring 17.

[0029] In summary, this application provides an electrical interface 15 on the sensor base plate 14 to adapt to different sensors 20, achieving compatibility of various sensors 20. When replacing, only the decorative part 12 needs to be removed to pull out the sensor 20 and insert other types of sensors 20. Disassembly is simple, switching is more convenient, production is simple, and the cost is low, thus expanding and enriching the application scenarios and functions of inspection equipment.

[0030] This invention is not limited to the description in the specification and embodiments. Therefore, other advantages and modifications can be readily realized by those skilled in the art. Thus, without departing from the spirit and scope of the general concept as defined by the claims and their equivalents, this invention is not limited to the specific details, representative devices and illustrated examples shown and described herein.
