Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a display structure of a pressure gauge of an air compressor which contains the scale portion not touched by a user and stained.


BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

A conventional pressure gauge moves back and forth like a piston so as to display a pressure value, wherein a display screen is arranged on the pressure gauge and includes a scale portion formed on an outer wall of a cylindrical body. Accordingly, the pressure value cannot be viewable exactly because of the cylindrical body to cause a sight difference and a reading error of the pressure gauge.


The present invention has arisen to mitigate and/or obviate the afore-described disadvantages.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The primary aspect of the present invention is to provide a display structure of a pressure gauge of an air compressor which contains the transparent panel including the internal face and the external face, and the pressure value of the scale portion being marked on the internal face of the transparent panel facing the pressure gauge, hence the scale portion is not touched by the user and is not stained.


Another aspect of the present invention is to provide a display structure of a pressure gauge of an air compressor which contains the at least one first calibration unit and the at least one second calibration unit to be adjustable by the user so that the pressure value of the pressure gauge is viewable exactly.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

With reference to FIGS. 1-3, a display structure of a pressure gauge of an air compressor 13 according to a first embodiment of the present invention, the air compressor 13 is received in an accommodation box 1, and the accommodation box 1 includes a switch 11 and a hollow displaying opening 12, the air compressor 13 is connected with the pressure gauge 2, and a scale portion 310 of the pressure gauge 2 is viewable via the displaying opening 12.


The pressure gauge 2 moves back and forth like a piston to display a pressure value, the pressure gauge 2 includes a cylindrical body 21 which is transparent and is formed in a pen shape, and the pressure gauge 2 includes a colored O-ring 20 configured to indicate the pressure value of the scale portion 310, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 6.


The scale portion 310 is not printed on the cylindrical body 21 of the pressure gauge 2 and includes a transparent panel 3 on which the pressure value of the scale portion 310 is marked on an internal face 31 of the transparent panel 3, and the internal face 31 faces the cylindrical body 21 of the pressure gauge 2 so that the transparent panel 3 is not touched by a user or is stained by external environment (such as dusts). The transparent panel 3 of the scale portion 310 is detachably connected with the cylindrical body 21 of the pressure gauge 2, and the cylindrical body 21 has at least one fixing rack 22 on which at least one positioning bolt 221 is arranged, such that the at least one positioning bolt 221 of the at least one fixing rack 22 of the cylindrical body 21 is connected with at least one connection orifice 30 of the transparent panel 3, as illustrated in FIGS. 4 and 5.


At least one scale line 311 of the scale portion 310 is thicken or lengthen, as shown in FIG. 6, such that the pressure value of the pressure gauge 2 is viewable clearly by the user after the colored O-ring of the pressure gauge 2 is forced to move.


Referring to FIG. 5, the transparent panel 3 further includes at least one first calibration unit 33, wherein a respective first calibration unit 33 is defined by a circular hole, and the transparent panel 3 includes at least one second calibration unit 34, wherein a respective second calibration unit 34 is defined by two crosses or other patterns, and the at least one first calibration unit 33 and the at least one second calibration unit 34 are configured to be adjustable by the user and are printed on the internal face 31 and an external face 32 of the transparent panel 3, such that a height difference and an oblique viewing angle are formed between the internal face 31 and the external face 32 so that a viewing sight is perpendicular to the scale portion 310, and the pressure value is viewable accurately via the internal face 31 and the external face 32 of the transparent panel 3.


Operational warning texts or a logo is printed on the external face 32 or the internal face 31 of the transparent panel 3.


As illustrated FIGS. 8-10, in a second embodiment, an internal face 31 of the transparent panel 3 has a scale portion 310 and is one-piece formed with a cylindrical body 21 so as to form a pressure gauge 2.


Accordingly, the display structure of the pressure gauge 2 of the air compressor 13 comprises the transparent panel 3 which includes the internal face and the external face, and the operational warning texts or the logo is printed on the external face or the internal face of the transparent panel so that the pressure value of the scale portion 310 is marked on the internal face 31 of the transparent panel 3 facing the pressure gauge 2, hence the scale portion 310 is not touched by the user and is not stained. Preferably, the transparent panel 3 is one-piece formed or is detachably connected with the cylindrical body 21 of the pressure gauge 2. The transparent panel 3 further includes the at least one first calibration unit 33 and the at least one second calibration unit 34 which are adjustable by the user so that the pressure value of the pressure gauge 2 is viewable exactly.
