[0002] Currently, most laboratory ranging probes use threaded fixing or single installation methods, which result in cumbersome installation, difficult alignment, and complex wiring, making them unsuitable for diverse experimental equipment layouts. Traditional probes lack quick replacement and automatic electrical connection mechanisms, leading to low equipment switching efficiency and insufficient installation stability and contact reliability, thus affecting measurement accuracy and experimental efficiency.

Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a laboratory ranging probe that is easy to install, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a laboratory ranging probe that is easy to install, comprising a protective shell and an installation assembly. An ultrasonic sensor is disposed at the bottom of the protective shell, and a support plate is fixedly connected to the top of the protective shell. The top of the support plate is provided with a ring-shaped neodymium magnet and several gold-plated spring pins. The installation assembly includes a fixing plate, and a connecting plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixing plate. The bottom of the connecting plate is provided with a low-carbon steel magnetic plate and several gold-plated metal contacts. A threaded hole is opened at the top of the fixing plate, and tenons are opened at both ends of the top of the fixing plate. Two magnetic iron blocks are disposed at the top of the fixing plate.
[0006] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: it adapts to different experimental equipment through three methods: magnetic adsorption, threaded connection, and tenon-groove snap-fit, making it flexible and efficient. The annular neodymium magnet and the low-carbon steel magnetic plate automatically align with the center, and the gold-plated spring pin makes tight contact with the metal contact point, completing the electrical signal connection without manual alignment, saving time and effort, ensuring reliable contact, guaranteeing stable transmission of ranging signals, and improving installation and usage efficiency.
[0007] To achieve balanced installation forces and precise alignment:
[0008] The configuration is further defined as follows: the two tenons and the two magnetic iron blocks are symmetrically distributed about the threaded hole.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solutions, the symmetrical distribution ensures uniform force distribution during magnetic adsorption, threaded connection, and tenon-groove clamping, avoiding installation misalignment and improving the stability and adaptability of different installation methods.
[0010] To achieve stable and precise alignment of magnetic adsorption:
[0011] The top of the annular neodymium magnet has the same dimensions as the bottom of the low-carbon steel magnetic plate.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the same size ensures the maximum contact area, enhances the adsorption force, and makes the two fit tightly and center-aligned, preventing loosening and misalignment during use and ensuring structural stability.
[0013] To achieve reliable transmission of electrical signals and power:
[0014] A further configuration is made whereby the ultrasonic sensor is connected to a gold-plated spring pin circuit.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the circuit connection enables the sensor's detection signal and the required power to be transmitted through the pin, eliminating the need for additional wiring, simplifying the connection process, and ensuring transmission continuity.
[0016] To achieve precise and stable electrical contact:
[0017] Further configuration: the top of the outer surface of the gold-plated spring pin and the bottom of the outer surface of the gold-plated metal contact are the same size; the gold-plated spring pin is distributed in a ring around the annular neodymium magnet; and the gold-plated metal contact is distributed in a ring around the low-carbon steel magnetic plate.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solutions, the same size ensures tight contact, and the ring distribution ensures that the pins and contacts correspond one-to-one, avoiding poor contact and ensuring stable and reliable power and signal transmission.
[0019] The parts of the device not covered herein are the same as or can be implemented using existing technologies. Attached Figure Description
