Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of thermometer technology, specifically to a digital thermometer with intelligent functions. Background Technology

[0002] With increasing awareness of health monitoring and growing demand for precise temperature control in industrial production, digital thermometers, due to their intuitive readings and high measurement accuracy, have been widely used in various fields such as home health, medical care, food processing, and electronics manufacturing. In recent years, industrial production has placed higher demands on the ease of use, storage safety, and intelligent functionality of digital thermometers. Traditional digital thermometers have gradually revealed numerous shortcomings in structural design and functional adaptation, making it difficult to meet the diverse usage needs of current industrial scenarios.

[0003] In terms of storage and portability, traditional digital thermometers often feature exposed probes or are only equipped with simple plastic protective sleeves. Exposed probes are prone to damage to the sensing element due to collisions and friction during transport and storage, affecting measurement accuracy. Independent protective sleeves, on the other hand, are easily lost and inconvenient to access, increasing user costs and operational complexity. Furthermore, the wires connecting the probes to the thermometer body are often of fixed length. Excessively long wires are prone to tangling and knotting during storage, not only taking up space but also potentially causing internal wire breakage due to repeated pulling, affecting data transmission stability and thus hindering the reliable implementation of intelligent thermometer functions such as real-time data acquisition and remote transmission. Regarding probe fixation stability, while some digital thermometers attempt to incorporate simple slots on the body for probe placement, these slots often lack active clamping mechanisms, relying solely on the gap between the slot and the probe for positioning. In scenarios involving movement or bumps, the probe is prone to detaching from the slot, failing to provide effective protection and potentially causing additional damage by scratching other thermometer components due to the probe's movement. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a digital thermometer with intelligent functions to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A digital thermometer with intelligent functions includes a thermometer body; the thermometer body has a groove, a pin is rotatably connected to the groove, a cover plate is rotatably connected to the pin, a wire is fixedly connected to the thermometer body, and a probe is electrically connected to the wire; a positioning groove is provided in the groove, and the probe is placed in the positioning groove. An elastic clip is installed on each side of the positioning groove, and a silicone pad is provided on the inner side of the elastic clip; a wedge-shaped block is provided on the cover plate corresponding to the position of the positioning groove, with the inclined surface of the wedge facing the elastic clip.

[0007] A further improvement of the present invention is that: a coiling groove is provided in the groove, a coiling spring is provided in the coiling groove, a winding shaft is provided in the middle of the groove, one end of the coiling spring is fixedly connected to the winding shaft, an installation block is fixedly connected to the winding shaft, a locking block is rotatably connected to the installation block, a guide groove is provided on the cover plate, and the installation block and the locking block extend to the outside of the cover plate.

[0008] A further improvement of this utility model is that the thermometer is equipped with a display screen, and a conical protrusion is provided on the outside of the display screen.

[0009] A further improvement of this utility model is that: a compression spring is connected between the end of the elastic clip away from the positioning groove and the inner wall of the groove; when the cover is closed, the wedge block squeezes the elastic clip to rotate inward to the positioning groove 7, the compression spring is compressed, and the silicone pad is tightly attached to the probe to achieve clamping; when the cover is opened, the wedge block disengages from the elastic clip, the compression spring resets and pushes the elastic clip to open, releasing the probe.

[0010] A further improvement of this utility model is that a micro switch is provided on the inner wall of the groove corresponding to the closed position of the cover plate, and a trigger protrusion is provided on the edge of the cover plate.

[0011] A further improvement of this utility model is that a metal connecting tube is detachably connected to the lower side of the thermometer body.

[0012] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the technological progress achieved by this utility model compared to the prior art is as follows:

[0013] 1. This utility model provides a digital thermometer with intelligent functions. Through the coordinated design of positioning groove, elastic clip, wedge block and compression spring, it realizes automatic clamping-release linkage protection for probe: When the cover is closed, the wedge block squeezes the elastic clip to rotate inward to the positioning groove. The compression force of the compression spring makes the silicone pad tightly adhere to the probe. This not only avoids collision and wear of the probe due to shaking when it is carried or idle, but also protects the sensitive element of the probe through the buffering effect of the silicone pad, effectively maintaining the temperature detection accuracy. When the cover is opened, the compression spring automatically resets and pushes the elastic clip to open. The probe can be quickly removed without manual adjustment, eliminating the cumbersome steps of manual fixing or disassembly in traditional products, greatly improving the convenience of operation, and is especially suitable for the need for quick removal and placement of probes in medical scenarios.

[0014] 2. This utility model provides a digital thermometer with intelligent functions. The combination structure of wire groove, coil spring, winding spool and locking block solves the pain points of traditional wires being easy to tangle, difficult to manage, and easy to be pulled and damaged: the coil spring can drive the winding spool to automatically wind up the wire, so that the wire is neatly stored in the wire groove and avoids the wire being messy and tangled when idle; by rotating the mounting block and locking block on the outside of the cover plate, the wire extension length can be flexibly fixed to adapt to different measurement distances, such as deep scenes in industrial equipment, without the need to frequently adjust the hand position; at the same time, the wire is stored in the closed groove, which can reduce the damage to the wire sheath and internal circuitry caused by external pulling and friction, extend the service life of the wire, and reduce the risk of measurement failure caused by poor circuit contact.

[0022] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to embodiments:

[0023] Example 1

[0024] like Figures 1-5As shown, this utility model provides a digital thermometer body 1 with intelligent functions, including a thermometer body 1; the thermometer body 1 has a groove 2, the groove 2 is rotatably connected to a pin, the pin is rotatably connected to a cover plate 4, the thermometer body 1 is fixedly connected to a wire 5, the wire 5 is electrically connected to a probe 6, a positioning groove 7 is provided in the groove 2, and the probe 6 is placed in the positioning groove 7. An elastic clip 8 is installed on each side of the positioning groove 7, and a silicone pad is provided on the inner side of the elastic clip 8. A wedge block 9 is provided on the cover plate 4 corresponding to the position of the positioning groove 7, with the inclined surface of the wedge block 9 facing the elastic clip 8. The probe 6 is the core sensing component of the thermometer body 1, which is prone to failure due to collision, scratches, or contamination. The groove 2 provides a dedicated storage cavity for the probe 6, preventing the probe 6 from being exposed; after the cover plate 4 is closed by rotating the pin, it can completely seal the probe 6 in the groove 2, effectively isolating it from dust, liquids such as sweat and disinfectant, and external collisions, preventing wear on the surface of the probe 6 or moisture to the internal components. The silicone pad on the inner side of the elastic clip 8 prevents the clip from making hard contact with the probe 6—preventing the clip from squeezing and deforming the probe 6, and also preventing the edge of the clip from scratching the sensing coating of the probe 6, thus protecting the sensing accuracy of the probe 6.

[0025] If the probe 6 becomes loose or shifts during transportation, carrying, or when idle, it may cause the wire 5 to be pulled or the probe 6 to bend. The elastic clips 8 on both sides of the positioning groove 7 can clamp the probe 6 in the center of the positioning groove 7 using their own elasticity, preventing the probe 6 from shifting when there is slight shaking. Moreover, the elastic design has self-adaptive fault tolerance. Even if the probe 6 has a small dimensional error, it can still be firmly clamped without strict size matching. When the cover plate 4 is closed, the wedge block 9 corresponding to the positioning groove 7 will push the elastic clip 8 through the inclined surface. The tighter the cover plate 4 is closed, the greater the squeezing force of the wedge block 9 on the clip, which makes the clip further hold the probe 6 tightly, completely eliminating the loosening of the probe 6 when it is bumped or turned over during transportation, and preventing the wire 5 from being damaged by pulling.

[0026] like Figures 1-5As shown, preferably, a coiling groove 10 is provided in the groove 2, and a coiling spring 11 is provided in the coiling groove 10. A winding shaft 12 is provided in the middle of the groove 2. One end of the coiling spring 11 is fixedly connected to the winding shaft 12. A mounting block 13 is fixedly connected to the winding shaft 12. A locking block 14 is rotatably connected to the mounting block 13. A guide groove 15 is provided in the cover plate 4. The mounting block 13 and the locking block 14 extend to the outside of the cover plate 4. One end of the coiling spring 11 is fixed to the winding shaft 12. When the wire 5 is pulled out for use, the coiling spring 11 is twisted and stores force. After the wire 5 is released, the coiling spring 11 releases its elasticity and drives the winding shaft 12 to rotate, automatically winding the wire 5 onto the winding shaft 12 and storing it in the coiling groove 10—eliminating the need for manual arrangement of the wire 5 and avoiding the wire 5 being pulled or worn due to messy knots. The wire trough 10 provides a dedicated winding track for the wire 5, allowing the wire 5 to be evenly wound on the winding spool 12 along the trough, preventing local stacking and jamming of the wire 5, ensuring smooth winding, and avoiding damage to the insulation layer of the wire 5 due to disordered winding.

[0027] Mounting block 13 is fixed to the winding spool 12, and locking block 14 is rotatably connected to mounting block 13 and extends to the outside of cover plate 4. When it is necessary to lengthen the wire 5 or to operate at a distance, the wire 5 can be pulled out to the required length, and then the outer locking block 14 can be rotated to engage with or abut against the inner wall of guide groove 15, thereby locking the winding spool 12 and preventing the wire 5 from automatically retracting due to the spring force of coil spring 11. This meets the needs of different measurement distances. When the wire 5 needs to be retracted, the outer locking block 14 can be rotated in the opposite direction to release the lock. The coil spring 11 will automatically drive the winding spool 12 to retract the wire without manual pulling, making the operation highly efficient. When the wire 5 is wound on the reel 12, it is under uniform force and low tension. The spring 11 has controllable elasticity, preventing excessive pulling on the wire 5. This avoids the internal copper core from breaking or the interface from loosening due to long-term bending or excessive local stress. After winding, the wire 5 is completely hidden in the coil groove 10, isolating it from external dust and liquids. It also prevents the wire 5 from being snagged by other objects during transport, further protecting the insulation layer and electrical connections at both ends of the wire 5, and reducing problems such as inaccurate measurements or no readings caused by damage to the wire 5. The locking block 14 extends to the outside of the cover plate 4, allowing adjustment of the locking or unlocking state without opening the cover plate 4. The entire process of pulling the wire 5, locking the length, and unlocking the wire can be completed with one hand.

[0028] Example 2

[0029] like Figures 1-5As shown, based on Embodiment 1, this utility model provides a technical solution: Preferably, the thermometer body 1 is provided with a display screen 3, and a conical protrusion 17 is provided on the outer side of the display screen 3. Adding a conical protrusion 17 to the outer side of the display screen of the thermometer body 1 further optimizes the visual experience, physical protection, and ease of operation of the device. The raised arc surface or specific angle of the conical protrusion 17 can form an effect similar to a micro-focusing lens: in strong light environments, it can reduce the direct reflection of ambient light on the display screen surface, avoiding glare from screen reflections, while moderately converging light onto the display screen area, making numbers and icons clearer; in low light environments, if the display screen has its own backlight, the conical protrusion can reduce the diffusion loss of the backlight, allowing the light to be more concentrated in the visible area, improving data recognition, without the need for an external light source. Traditional flat display screens have side viewing angle deviations, while the angled structure of the conical protrusion 17 can adjust the effective viewing angle of the display screen: users do not need to be completely facing the screen; they can clearly read the data from a slightly side angle.

[0030] The tapered bump 17 protrudes from the display surface. When the thermometer is accidentally placed flat, the bump will first contact the contact surface, preventing the display from directly rubbing against hard objects such as desktops, reducing screen scratches and extending the display's lifespan. If the device is accidentally dropped, the tapered bump 17 can act as the first point of impact, dispersing the impact force through its own deformation. If the bump is made of silicone, soft plastic, or as a structural support, or if it is made of hard plastic, it prevents the impact force from being directly transmitted to the edge of the display, reducing the probability of the display breaking or going black due to impact.

[0031] Example 3

[0032] like Figures 1-5As shown, preferably, a compression spring 19 is connected between the end of the elastic clip 8 away from the positioning groove 7 and the inner wall of the groove 2. When the cover plate 4 is closed, the wedge block 9 squeezes the elastic clip 8 to rotate inward toward the positioning groove 7, the compression spring 19 is compressed, and the silicone pad is tightly attached to the probe needle 6 to achieve clamping. When the cover plate 4 is opened, the wedge block 9 disengages from the elastic clip 8, the compression spring 19 resets and pushes the elastic clip 8 to open, releasing the probe needle 6. When the cover plate 4 is closed, when the wedge block 9 squeezes the elastic clip 8 to rotate inward toward the positioning groove 7, the compression spring 19 is compressed simultaneously—at this time, the compression spring 19 will generate a reverse rebound force, continuously pushing the elastic clip 8 to apply pressure toward the probe needle 6, so that the silicone pad and the probe needle 6 form a tight and uniform fit. Compared to designs that rely solely on the deformation of the clip itself, the spring 19 has more stable and less prone to attenuation. Especially after long-term use, the clip itself may become fatigued, but the spring 19 can still maintain sufficient elasticity. Even if there are bumps during transportation or the thermometer body 1 is flipped, the probe 6 will not shift due to insufficient clamping force, completely avoiding the risk of the wire 5 being pulled or the probe 6 being bent. When the cover 4 is opened and the wedge block 9 disengages from the elastic clip 8, the compressed spring 19 will immediately return to its original position. Through its elasticity, it will actively push the elastic clip 8 to rotate away from the positioning groove 7—the clip will automatically open. The user does not need to pry the clip open with their fingers; they can simply reach in and remove the probe 6, achieving instant release upon opening the cover and one-handed needle removal.

[0033] In this embodiment, since the compression of the spring 19 can be adjusted according to the rotation amplitude of the clamping plate, the larger the diameter of the probe 6, the greater the rotation amplitude of the clamping plate, the greater the compression of the spring 19, and the greater the elastic force; the smaller the diameter, the smaller the compression of the spring 19, and the smaller the elastic force. It is not necessary to strictly match the fixed diameter of the probe 6. Even if there are slight differences in diameter, the spring 19 can also be adjusted adaptively by the elastic force to ensure that each probe 6 can be stably clamped, thereby improving the multi-functional adaptability of the thermometer body 1.

[0034] Example 4

[0035] like Figures 1-5As shown, based on Embodiment 1, this utility model provides a technical solution: Preferably, a micro switch 20 is provided on the inner wall of the groove 2 corresponding to the closed position of the cover plate 4, and a trigger protrusion 16 is provided on the edge of the cover plate 4; when the cover plate 4 is completely closed, the trigger protrusion 16 presses the micro switch 20, and the main board of the thermometer body 1 receives the signal and controls the display screen 3 to enter sleep mode; when the cover plate 4 is open, the trigger protrusion 16 disengages from the micro switch 20, and the display screen 3 automatically wakes up and lights up. The thermometer body 1 is mostly battery powered, such as button batteries or dry batteries, and the display screen 3 is the main power-consuming component. This structure reduces ineffective power consumption from the source by using the logic of sleep mode when not in use. When the cover plate 4 is completely closed and the probe 6 is retracted, the thermometer body 1 is in an idle state. The trigger protrusion 16 presses the micro switch 20, and the main board receives the signal and controls the display screen 3 to enter sleep mode—at this time, the screen backlight is turned off and the display driver circuit operates with low power consumption. Compared with manually turning off the screen or always-on standby, the screen power consumption can be reduced by more than 80%. When needed, the moment the cover 4 is opened, the trigger lug 16 disengages from the microswitch 20, and the display screen 3 immediately wakes up and lights up—no need to wait for power-on or press the wake-up button; the probe 6 can be picked up directly after opening the cover for measurement, and the reading is displayed instantly. Compared to the traditional thermometer body 1 requiring pressing the power button to power on → waiting for startup → measurement, this design reduces 2-3 steps, allowing the entire process of opening the cover and measuring to be completed with one hand. This structure ensures that the wake-up or sleep state of the display screen 3 is completely synchronized with the movement of the cover 4, requiring no additional manual operation and significantly lowering the barrier to entry for users.

[0036] The thermometer body 1 has a detachable metal connecting tube 18 on its lower side. Metals such as 304 stainless steel have excellent high temperature resistance and can withstand temperatures above 100℃ or even higher. They are also resistant to acid and alkali corrosion and can be used to measure the temperature of special media such as hot water, hot oil, and weakly corrosive liquids. Plastic connecting tubes are prone to deformation at high temperatures, brittleness at low temperatures, or corrosion damage, making them unsuitable for such scenarios. At the same time, the surface of the metal material is smooth and does not easily attract dust and oil, reducing the release of harmful substances due to material aging, making it especially suitable for food contact scenarios.

[0037] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
