Adjustable measurement device
An adjustable measurement device includes a case, a positive contact portion, a negative contact portion, a test probe, a first wire, and a second wire. The positive contact portion is positioned on an end of the case and electrically connected to the first wire. The negative contact portion is movably received in the case and electrically connected to the second wire. A receiving hole is defined in the negative contact portion for the test probe. The test probe includes a main body electrically connected to the negative contact portion, a tip portion electrically connected to the positive contact portion, and an insulating portion positioned between the main body and the tip portion. A distance between the positive contact portion and the negative contact portion is adjustable by moving the negative contact portion. The negative contact portion and the positive contact portion are isolated from each other.
1. An adjustable measurement device comprising:
a case comprising an end;
a positive contact portion positioned at the end of the case;
a negative contact portion movably received in the case, and defining a receiving hole;
a test probe extending through the receiving hole of the negative contact portion, and comprising:
a main body electrically connected to the negative contact portion;
a tip portion electrically connected to the positive contact portion; and
an insulation portion positioned between the main body and the tip portion, to insulate the main body from the tip portion;
a first wire electrically connected to the positive contact portion; and
a second wire electrically connected to the negative contact portion;
wherein a distance between the positive contact portion and the negative contact portion is adjustable by moving the negative contact portion in the case, and the positive contact portion is isolated from the positive contact portion.
2. The adjustable measurement device of claim 1 , wherein the case is pipe-like and has a C-shaped cross-section, a circular stop portion extends from the end of the case and surrounds an axis of the case, a through hole is defined in the stop portion and aligns with the axis of the case, a bracket extends from the end of the case along the longitudinal direction of the case, the positive contact portion is positioned on the bracket, and the tip portion extends through the receiving hole and through the through hole, and is electrically connected to the positive contact portion.
