Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the field of air conditioning technology, and in particular relates to a temperature sensor fixing device and an air conditioner. Background Technology
[0002] Accurate temperature measurement of the air conditioning system is essential for conducting point-based testing of the air conditioning piping and for achieving functions such as precise temperature control, overpressure protection, and low-temperature protection. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure the stable installation of the temperature sensor on the piping to effectively collect the pipe's temperature.
[0003] In existing laboratories, the common method for securing temperature probes to pipelines is to wrap the probes with aluminum foil. In existing air conditioning systems, a sleeve is typically welded to the pipeline to hold the probe, or a snap-fit mechanism is used. However, both of these methods of securing temperature probes suffer from operational difficulties and low efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0004] This application provides a temperature probe fixing device, a temperature sensing component, and an air conditioner, which can solve the technical problems of operational difficulties and low efficiency in fixing temperature probes on pipelines during the production and testing of existing air conditioners.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A temperature sensor fixing device includes an elastic steel sheet, which has a first state of being straightened and unfolded, and a second state of being automatically rolled into a cylindrical shape when pressed; when the elastic steel sheet is rolled into a cylindrical shape, an installation space is formed inside, which is used for fixing and installing the temperature sensor.
[0007] In some embodiments, in the first state, the elastic steel sheet includes a protruding surface disposed toward the arching direction, the protruding surface being a pressing operation surface, and the curling deformation direction of the elastic steel sheet being toward the pressing operation surface.
[0008] In some embodiments, the raised surface is used for fixing the temperature sensing probe.
[0009] In some embodiments, the raised surface includes a central portion and an edge portion surrounding the central portion, the central portion being used for fixed connection of the temperature sensing probe.
[0010] In some embodiments, the temperature probe fixing device further includes a heat insulation layer for heat preservation of the temperature probe, and the heat insulation layer is provided on at least one side of the elastic steel sheet.
[0011] In some embodiments, the insulation layer is made of insulation cotton.
[0012] A temperature sensing component, comprising:
[0013] Temperature sensor;
[0014] The aforementioned temperature probe fixing device is connected to the temperature probe.
[0015] In some embodiments, the temperature sensing probe is welded onto the elastic steel sheet.
[0016] An air conditioner, comprising:
[0017] The tube to be tested;
[0018] In the aforementioned temperature sensing component, the elastic steel sheet is cylindrical, the tube is inserted into the installation space, and the elastic steel sheet presses the temperature sensing probe tightly against the outer surface of the tube.
[0019] In some embodiments, the inner diameter of the elastic steel sheet when it is cylindrical matches the outer diameter of the tube.
[0020] The temperature sensor fixing device, temperature sensing component, and air conditioner provided in this application embodiment use an elastic steel sheet as the fixing component for the temperature sensor. By utilizing the elastic energy storage and directional triggering mechanism of the elastic steel sheet, the elastic steel sheet automatically rolls into a cylinder, thereby quickly wrapping the tube to be measured and pressing the temperature sensor between the tube and the elastic steel sheet, realizing the rapid fixing and installation of the temperature sensor, which can shorten the installation time and improve testing and production efficiency.

Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0037] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection" and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can be fixed connections, integral connections, or detachable connections; they can be mechanical connections or electrical connections, or internal connections between two components; they can be direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms according to the specific circumstances.
[0038] This application provides a temperature sensor fixing device. For an example, please refer to [link to example]. Figures 1-2 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the fixing device provided in the embodiment of this application in its first state. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the fixing device provided in the embodiment of this application in the second state. The fixing device 100 includes an elastic steel sheet 110, which has a first state of being straightened and unfolded, and a second state of being automatically rolled into a cylindrical shape when pressed; when the elastic steel sheet 110 is rolled into a cylindrical shape, an installation space 111 is formed inside, which is used for fixing and installing the temperature sensing probe.
[0039] It should be noted that the elastic steel sheet 110 is a steel sheet made of high-carbon steel, with its hardness increased through heat treatment, exhibiting high resilience and resistance to deformation. In its first unfolded state, the elastic steel sheet 110 is arched overall, and this arched feature provides support to keep the elastic steel sheet 110 in its unfolded state. When the arched portion of the elastic steel sheet 110 is subjected to a pressing force in the opposite direction of the arch, the arched support structure fails, causing the elastic steel sheet 110 to return to its second curled state based on its memory properties.
[0040] In practical applications, after the temperature probe 200 is fixed to the elastic steel sheet 110, the installer presses the unfolded elastic steel sheet 110. Utilizing the elastic energy storage and directional triggering mechanism of the elastic steel sheet 110, the sheet automatically rolls into a cylinder, quickly wrapping around the tube 20 to be measured and pressing the temperature probe 200 between the tube 20 and the elastic steel sheet 110. In this way, the temperature probe 200 can be stably fixed to the tube 20 for accurate temperature measurement.
[0041] The temperature probe 200 fixing device 100 provided in this application embodiment uses an elastic steel sheet 110 as the fixing component of the temperature probe 200. Utilizing the elastic energy storage and directional triggering mechanism of the elastic steel sheet 110, the elastic steel sheet 110 automatically rolls into a cylinder, thereby quickly wrapping around the tube body 20 to be measured and pressing the temperature probe 200 between the tube body 20 and the elastic steel sheet 110, realizing the rapid fixing and installation of the temperature probe 200, which can shorten the installation time and improve testing and production efficiency.
[0042] For example, in the first state, the elastic steel sheet 110 includes a protruding surface 112 disposed in the arching direction, the protruding surface 112 being a pressing operation surface, and the curling deformation direction of the elastic steel sheet 110 being toward the pressing operation surface.
[0043] Optionally, the raised surface 112 is used for fixing the temperature probe 200. Preferably, the raised surface 112 includes a central portion 1121 and an edge portion 1122 surrounding the central portion 1121, with the central portion 1121 used for fixing the temperature probe 200. This improves the stability of the connection between the temperature probe 200 and the elastic steel sheet 110. The temperature probe 200 can be fixedly connected to the elastic steel sheet 110 by adhesive, welding, or other connection methods.
[0044] In some embodiments, the temperature probe 200 fixing device 100 further includes a heat insulation layer 120 for heat preservation of the temperature probe 200. The heat insulation layer 120 is provided on at least one side of the elastic steel sheet 110. Thus, by providing the heat insulation layer 120, the temperature measurement accuracy of the temperature probe 200 can be improved. Preferably, both sides of the elastic steel sheet 110 are covered with the heat insulation layer 120. The heat insulation layer 120 can be attached to the surface of the elastic steel sheet 110 by adhesive or other means. The heat insulation layer 120 is, for example, made of insulating cotton. The heat insulation layer 120 can also be made of other materials with heat preservation effects.
[0045] In some embodiments, the fixing device 100 further includes a clamping member (not shown in the figure). After the elastic steel sheet 110 is wrapped around the outside of the tube body 20 to be measured, the clamping member is adapted to clamp the outside of the elastic steel sheet 110 to improve the stability of the elastic steel sheet 110 installed on the tube body 20 and further ensure good contact between the temperature probe 200 and the tube body 20.
[0046] The temperature probe 200 fixing device 100 provided in this application embodiment uses an elastic steel sheet 110 as the fixing component of the temperature probe 200. Utilizing the elastic energy storage and directional triggering mechanism of the elastic steel sheet 110, the elastic steel sheet 110 automatically rolls into a cylinder, thereby quickly wrapping around the tube body 20 to be measured and pressing the temperature probe 200 between the tube body 20 and the elastic steel sheet 110, realizing the rapid fixing and installation of the temperature probe 200, which can shorten the installation time and improve testing and production efficiency.
[0047] This application also provides a temperature sensing component, for example, please refer to [link to example]. Figures 3-4 , Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the temperature sensing component provided in the embodiments of this application. Figure 4 This is another schematic diagram of the temperature sensing component provided in an embodiment of this application. The temperature sensing component 10 includes a connected temperature sensing probe 200 and a temperature sensing probe fixing device 100 as described in any of the above embodiments.
[0048] Optionally, the temperature sensor 200 is welded to the elastic steel sheet 110. In the unfolded state, the elastic steel sheet 110 includes a first end 113 and a second end 114 opposite each other in the longitudinal direction, and a welding area 115 located on the elastic steel sheet 110, the elastic steel sheet 110 being welded to the welding area 115. Preferably, the distance from the welding area 115 to the first end 113 is the same as the distance from the welding area 115 to the second end 114, or the distance from the welding area 115 to the first end 113 is twice the distance from the welding area 115 to the second end 114.
[0049] In practical applications, installers press down on the unfolded elastic steel sheet 110, utilizing its elastic energy storage and directional triggering mechanism to automatically roll it into a cylinder. This quickly wraps around the tube 20 to be measured, pressing the temperature sensor 200 between the tube 20 and the elastic steel sheet 110. In this way, the temperature sensor 200 is stably fixed to the tube 20, enabling accurate temperature measurement.
[0050] The temperature sensing component 10 provided in this application uses an elastic steel sheet 110 as a fixing component for the temperature sensing probe 200. Utilizing the elastic energy storage and directional triggering mechanism of the elastic steel sheet 110, the elastic steel sheet 110 automatically rolls into a cylinder, thereby quickly wrapping around the tube body 20 to be measured and pressing the temperature sensing probe 200 between the tube body 20 and the elastic steel sheet 110, realizing the rapid fixing and installation of the temperature sensing probe 200, which can shorten the installation time and improve testing and production efficiency.
[0051] This application also provides an air conditioner, which can be a household air conditioner, a central air conditioner, or a large air conditioning unit. The air conditioner includes a pipe body for temperature measurement and the aforementioned temperature sensing component 10. For an example, please refer to... Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the temperature sensing component installed in the tube body according to an embodiment of this application. The elastic steel sheet 110 is cylindrical, and the tube body 20 is inserted in the installation space 111. The elastic steel sheet 110 presses the temperature sensing probe 200 tightly against the outer surface of the tube body 20.
[0052] Preferably, the inner diameter of the elastic steel sheet 110 when it is in a cylindrical shape matches the outer diameter of the tube body 20. This ensures that the temperature probe 200 is tightly pressed between the elastic steel sheet 110 and the tube body 20, guaranteeing good contact between the temperature probe 200 and the tube body 20 and improving the accuracy of temperature measurement. When the elastic steel sheet 110 is separated from the tube body 20, its inner diameter when it is rolled into a cylindrical shape can be less than or equal to the outer diameter of the tube body 20.
[0053] The air conditioner 1 provided in this application embodiment uses an elastic steel sheet 110 as a fixing component for the temperature probe 200 in its temperature sensing component 10. By utilizing the elastic energy storage and directional triggering mechanism of the elastic steel sheet 110, the elastic steel sheet 110 automatically rolls into a cylinder, thereby quickly wrapping the tube body 20 to be measured and pressing the temperature probe 200 between the tube body 20 and the elastic steel sheet 110, realizing the rapid fixed installation of the temperature probe 200, which can shorten the installation time and improve testing and production efficiency.
[0054] The above provides a detailed description of the temperature probe fixing device, temperature sensing component, and air conditioner provided in the embodiments of this application. Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of this application. The description of the above embodiments is only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core ideas of this application. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope based on the ideas of this application. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this application.
