Temperature measurement device
A temperature measurement device includes: a case fixed to a measurement target product; a flexible printed circuit board attached to the case; and a thermistor element mounting portion having a thermistor element to be electrically connected to a wiring provided on the flexible printed circuit board, the case has a holding portion for holding the thermistor element mounting portion and a support portion for supporting the holding portion, the holding portion is connected through a hinge portion to a case body provided with the support portion, and the holding portion is supported by the support portion in such a manner that the holding portion is folded back to bend the hinge portion.
1 . A temperature measurement device comprising:
a case fixed to a measurement target product;
a flexible printed circuit board attached to the case; and
a thermistor configured to be electrically connected to the flexible printed circuit board,
wherein the case includes:
a holding portion configured to hold the thermistor,
a support portion configured to support the holding portion, and
a hinge portion configured to connect the holding portion to a case body provided with the support portion, and
the support portion is configured to engage the holding portion in a configuration that the case is folded towards the support portion at the hinge portion.
2 . The temperature measurement device according to claim 1 , wherein
the flexible printed circuit board has multiple wirings, and
the multiple wirings include a wiring for measuring a voltage of the measurement target product and a wiring connected to the thermistor.
3 . The temperature measurement device according to claim 2 , wherein
the wiring for measuring the voltage is provided on a first surface of the flexible printed circuit board,
the wiring connected to the thermistor is provided on a second surface of the flexible printed circuit board, and
a heat collection plate is provided on a back side of a portion of the flexible printed circuit board provided with the thermistor.
4 . The temperature measurement device according to claim 2 , wherein
the multiple wirings are provided on one surface of the flexible printed circuit board,
at least one wiring of the multiple wirings provided on the one surface is for measuring the voltage, and the thermistor is connected to a wiring other than the at least one wiring, and
the temperature measurement device further comprises a spacer for forming a clearance between the measurement target product and the thermistor is provided on the flexible printed circuit board to surround the thermistor.
5 . The temperature measurement device according to claim 2 , wherein
multiple wirings are provided on one surface of the flexible printed circuit board,
at least one wiring of the multiple wirings provided on the one surface is for measuring the voltage, and the thermistor is connected to a wiring other than the at least one wiring,
the thermistor is connected to a wiring provided on a branched portion branched from a flexible printed circuit board body among the multiple wirings for measuring the voltage,
the thermistor is held by the holding portion with the branched portion being folded back, and
a heat collection plate is provided on a back side of a portion of the branched portion of the flexible printed circuit board provided with the thermistor.
6 . A temperature measurement device comprising:
a case configured to be fixed to a measurement target product;
a flexible printed circuit board attached to a first surface of the case; and
a thermistor configured to be electrically connected to the flexible printed circuit board,
wherein the case includes:
a holding portion disposed on the first surface of the case, the holding portion being configured to hold the thermistor;
a support portion disposed on a second surface of the case opposite the first surface; and
a hinge portion interposed between the holding portion and a portion of the case attached to the flexible printed circuit board, and
the support portion is configured to engage the holding portion to extend the holding portion in a direction away from the second surface in a configuration that the second surface is folded over at the hinge portion.
