Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of temperature sensor technology, and in particular to a quick-release temperature sensor. Background Technology

[0002] A temperature sensor is a sensor that can sense temperature and convert it into a usable output signal. It is the core component of temperature measurement instruments and an indispensable basic measuring element in fields such as industrial automation, building control, HVAC systems, and food, pharmaceutical, and warehousing. It is used to monitor the temperature of the environment or medium in real time and is a key component for achieving precise control and safe production.

[0003] Existing quick-mount temperature sensors typically use mounting ears that are integrated with the sensor housing or rigidly fixed. However, this approach has significant limitations in practical applications. When the mounting surface of the device under test is not horizontal or vertical but has a certain angle of inclination, the rigidly connected mounting ears cannot be adjusted accordingly. This causes the sensor body to tilt, which not only affects aesthetics but, more importantly, may prevent the sensor's sensing end from contacting the measured medium at the optimal angle, thus affecting measurement accuracy and response speed. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the limitations of existing quick-release temperature sensors, which typically use an integrated or rigidly fixed mounting ear to the sensor housing, this application provides a quick-release temperature sensor. When the mounting surface of the device under test is not horizontal or vertical but has a certain angle of inclination, the rigidly connected mounting ear cannot be adjusted accordingly. This causes the sensor body to tilt, affecting not only aesthetics but, more importantly, potentially preventing the sensor's sensing end from contacting the measured medium at the optimal angle, thus impacting measurement accuracy and response speed.

[0005] This application provides a quick-installation temperature sensor with the following technical solution: it includes a temperature sensor body and an integrated mounting block and plug-in component connected to the top of the temperature sensor body. The plug-in component is located above the mounting block. An arc-shaped mounting groove is provided on one side of the mounting block. Rotating holes are provided at both ends of the mounting block. A first connecting rod is rotatably connected inside one of the rotating holes. A fixing member is fixedly connected to one end of the first connecting rod. A first limiting tooth is fixedly connected to the outer periphery of one of the rotating holes. A fixing hole is provided at the other end of the first connecting rod. An adjusting column is threadedly connected inside the fixing hole. A second limiting tooth is threadedly connected to the surface of the adjusting column.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, when installing the temperature sensor body and the device under test, depending on the different installation scenarios, the adjusting column can be turned to move one end of the adjusting column away from the inside of the first connecting rod, allowing the protruding teeth of the second limiting tooth to separate from the groove of the first limiting tooth, thereby adjusting the tilt angle of the fixing component and facilitating the fixed connection between the fixing component and the device under test. After installation, the adjusting column is tightened to allow the protruding teeth of the second limiting tooth to mesh with the groove of the first limiting tooth, fixing the adjusted position. This allows for flexible adjustment of the installation angle, adapting to non-horizontal and non-vertical inclined installation surfaces, improving installation compatibility, ensuring that the sensor's temperature sensing end always contacts the measured medium at the optimal angle, and improving temperature measurement accuracy and response speed.

[0007] Preferably, a rotating column is rotatably connected inside another of the rotating holes, and one end of the rotating column is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing member.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotating column is rotatably connected inside another rotating hole, which makes it convenient for the rotating column and the first connecting rod to rotate simultaneously when adjusting the installation angle, thus facilitating the adjustment of the fixing member angle.

[0009] Preferably, a rubber ring is fitted onto the surface of the rotating column, and the rubber ring is in contact with the outer wall of the rotating hole.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, a rubber ring is fitted onto the surface of the rotating column, so that the rubber ring contacts the outer wall of the rotating hole, which can reduce rotational friction, improve service life and smoothness of adjustment.

[0011] Preferably, the first limiting tooth and the second limiting tooth are respectively provided with a plurality of protruding teeth and grooves, the protruding teeth on the first limiting tooth engage with the grooves on the second limiting tooth, and the grooves on the first limiting tooth engage with the protruding teeth on the second limiting tooth.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the angle is fixed by the meshing structure of several protruding teeth and grooves respectively provided on the first and second limiting toothed parts. The structure is simple and reliable, with high adjustment accuracy and good stability.

[0013] Preferably, the inner bottom wall of the first limiting tooth is provided with a through hole, which is adapted to the first connecting rod.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, a through hole is opened in the inner bottom wall of the first limiting tooth component, which facilitates the rotation of the first connecting rod in order to make adjustments.

[0015] Preferably, the temperature sensor body is provided with two sealing grooves, and a first sealing ring and a second sealing ring are respectively engaged inside the sealing grooves.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, and by setting a first sealing ring and a second sealing ring on the body of the temperature sensor, the sealing performance and durability of the sensor in complex environments are enhanced.

[0017] Preferably, the surface of the fastener has mounting holes.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution and through the setting of mounting holes, the quick-install temperature sensor can be easily installed and fixed quickly using external connecting components.

[0019] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0020] When installing the temperature sensor body to the device under test, depending on the installation scenario, the adjusting column can be turned to move one end of the adjusting column away from the inside of the first connecting rod, allowing the protruding teeth of the second limiting tooth to separate from the groove of the first limiting tooth, thereby adjusting the tilt angle of the fixing component. This facilitates the fixing component and the device under test to be fixedly connected. After installation, the adjusting column is tightened to allow the protruding teeth of the second limiting tooth to mesh with the groove of the first limiting tooth, fixing the adjusted position. This allows for flexible adjustment of the installation angle, adapting to non-horizontal and non-vertical inclined installation surfaces, improving installation compatibility, ensuring that the sensor's temperature sensing end always contacts the measured medium at the optimal angle, and improving temperature measurement accuracy and response speed.

[0026] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.

[0027] This application discloses a quick-installation temperature sensor.

[0028] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 A quick-install temperature sensor includes a temperature sensor body 1, a mounting block 2 integrated onto the top of the temperature sensor body 1, and a plug-in component 3. The plug-in component 3 is positioned above the mounting block 2. An arc-shaped mounting groove 4 is provided on one side of the mounting block 2. Rotating holes 5 are provided at both ends of the mounting block 2. A first connecting rod 6 is rotatably connected inside one of the rotating holes 5. A fixing member 7 is fixedly connected to one end of the first connecting rod 6. When the installation angle needs to be adjusted, the first connecting rod 6 rotates inside the rotating hole 5 to adjust the tilt angle of the fixing member 7. A first limiting tooth 8 is fixedly connected to the outer periphery of one of the rotating holes 5. A fixing hole 9 is provided at the other end of the first connecting rod 6, and an adjusting post 10 is threadedly connected inside the fixing hole 9. The surface of the adjusting column 10 is threaded with a second limiting tooth 11. Tightening the adjusting column 10 moves one end away from the interior of the first connecting rod 6, allowing the protruding tooth 14 of the second limiting tooth 11 to separate from the groove 15 of the first limiting tooth 8. This allows adjustment of the tilt angle of the fixing member 7, facilitating the fixed connection between the fixing member 7 and the device under test. After installation, tightening the adjusting column 10 allows the protruding tooth 14 of the second limiting tooth 11 to mesh with the groove 15 of the first limiting tooth 8, fixing the adjusted position. This allows for flexible adjustment of the installation angle, adapting to non-horizontal and non-vertical inclined installation surfaces, improving installation compatibility, ensuring that the sensor's temperature sensing end always contacts the measured medium at the optimal angle, and improving temperature measurement accuracy and response speed.

[0029] Reference Figure 2 Another rotating hole 5 has a rotating column 12 rotatably connected inside. One end of the rotating column 12 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing member 7. By rotatably connecting the rotating column 12 inside the other rotating hole 5, the rotating column 12 and the first connecting rod 6 can rotate simultaneously when adjusting the installation angle, which makes it convenient for the fixing member 7 to adjust the angle.

[0030] Reference Figure 2 A rubber ring 13 is fitted onto the surface of the rotating column 12. The rubber ring 13 contacts the outer wall of the rotating hole 5. By fitting the rubber ring 13 onto the surface of the rotating column 12 and having the rubber ring 13 contact the outer wall of the rotating hole 5, rotational friction can be reduced, service life can be improved, and adjustment smoothness can be enhanced.

[0031] Reference Figure 3The first limiting tooth 8 and the second limiting tooth 11 are respectively provided with a plurality of protruding teeth 14 and grooves 15. The protruding teeth 14 on the first limiting tooth 8 and the grooves 15 on the second limiting tooth 11 mesh with each other. Through the meshing structure of the plurality of protruding teeth 14 and grooves 15 respectively provided on the first limiting tooth 8 and the second limiting tooth 11, the angle is fixed. The structure is simple and reliable, with high adjustment accuracy and good stability.

[0032] Reference Figure 3 The inner bottom wall of the first limiting toothed component 8 is provided with a through hole, which is adapted to the first connecting rod 6. By providing a through hole in the inner bottom wall of the first limiting toothed component 8, the first connecting rod 6 can rotate inside and be adjusted.

[0033] Reference Figure 4 The temperature sensor body 1 is provided with two sealing grooves, and a first sealing ring 16 and a second sealing ring 17 are respectively snapped into the inside of the sealing grooves. The sealing performance and durability of the sensor in complex environments are enhanced by the first sealing ring 16 and the second sealing ring 17 on the temperature sensor body 1.

[0034] Reference Figure 1 The surface of the fastener 7 is provided with mounting holes 18, which facilitates the quick-installation temperature sensor to be installed and fixed quickly using external connecting components.

[0035] The working principle of this quick-installation temperature sensor is as follows: When using the temperature sensor body 1, when installing it with the device under test, the first connecting rod 6 of the fixing part 7 and the rotating column 12 are rotated in the rotating hole 5 of the mounting block 2 according to different installation scenarios, thereby realizing flexible adjustment of the installation angle.

[0036] Alternatively, the adjusting column 10 can be turned so that one end of the adjusting column 10 is away from the inside of the first connecting rod 6, allowing the protruding tooth 14 of the second limiting tooth 11 to separate from the groove 15 of the first limiting tooth 8. This allows adjustment of the tilt angle of the fixing member 7, facilitating the fixed connection between the fixing member 7 and the device under test. After installation, the adjusting column 10 is tightened so that the protruding tooth 14 of the second limiting tooth 11 meshes with the groove 15 of the first limiting tooth 8, fixing the adjusted position. This allows for flexible adjustment of the installation angle, adapting to non-horizontal and non-vertical inclined installation surfaces, improving installation compatibility, ensuring that the sensor's temperature sensing end always contacts the measured medium at the optimal angle, and improving temperature measurement accuracy and response speed.

[0037] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
