Fluke t100 voltage tester manual

In some embodiments, the socket may include at least a right side sheath body and a left side sheath body that may each extend from opposite sides of the socket outward away from the probe body 70 and then fold toward each other to define a receiving space in the socket to receive the mating protrusion As such, the right side sheath body and the left side sheath body may form a void space that substantially matches a shape of the mating protrusion in some cases.

In this regard, mating protrusion may have a T-shaped configuration in which a top planar element is spaced from the main body 12 by a narrower spacer element. The spacer element may have a width slightly less than the gap between right side sheath body and left side sheath body However, it will be appreciated that an exact match of shapes is not required.

In some embodiments, one longitudinal end of the socket may be proximate to an alignment ridge In an example embodiment, the alignment ridge may be disposed on the probe body 70 and may extend radially outward from the probe body 70 to define a ridge i. The alignment ridge may extend completely around probe body 70 where it would interfere with use of the socket At least a portion of the alignment ridge may be shaped to support rigid connection between the removable probe 22 and the main body probe 20 when the mating protrusion is inserted into the socket In this regard, for example, the alignment ridge may include an edge e.

In some cases, the alignment ridge may also function to guard the user's hand from sliding up the removable probe As noted above, mating protrusion may be configured having a top planar element spaced from main body 12 by a narrower spacer element. Stated another way, the mating protrusion may include cantilevered extension portions that extend from at least two sides and in some embodiments three sides of the mating protrusion in order to slide into the socket and engage respective ones of the right side sheath body and the left side sheath body The mating protrusion may otherwise be an extension of the left side panel 68 of the main body 12 that extends in a cantilevered fashion over a portion of the left side panel The cantilevered extension portions may include two portions that extend along a longitudinal length of the main body 12 to correspond to the right side sheath body and the left side sheath body when the mating protrusion is inserted into the socket In some embodiments, a third portion of the cantilevered extension portions may extend between the two portions that extend along a longitudinal length of the main body 12 and may contact or otherwise be proximate to at least a portion of the alignment ridge when the mating protrusion is inserted into the socket As such, the third portion of the cantilevered extension portions may form a base of the mating protrusion that is extended out of the plane in which the left side panel 68 lies.

In some cases, the probe body 70 may include a recess that may receive the mating protrusion given that the mating protrusion is in a plane that is parallel to, but spaced apart from the plane of the left side panel 68 by the thickness of the third portion of the cantilevered extension portions A distance between the folded portion of the right and left side sheath bodies and may be slightly larger than a width of the material forming the cantilevered extension portions As such, the mating protrusion may include an arcuate groove around at least two sides of a base thereof to form the cantilevered extension portions To further stabilize the removable probe 22 when mated with the main body 12 , the main body 12 may include a probe support ridge The probe support ridge may extend radially outward from at least a portion of the main body 12 and lie in a plane that is substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the main body In an example embodiment, the probe support ridge may extend over portions of the right side panel 66 , the left side panel 68 and the back panel 60 see FIGS.

However, the probe support ridge could be less extensive in some examples. In an example embodiment, the probe support ridge may include a cradle portion shaped to snugly fit next to the probe body 70 when the mating protrusion is inserted into the socket Moreover, the cradle portion may be positioned to support the back of the probe body 70 to inhibit rearward movement of the probe body 70 while the front edge of alignment ridge may be positioned to support the front of the probe body 70 to inhibit forward rotational movement of the probe body Thus, in an example embodiment, the probe support ridge and the alignment ridge may be configured to lie in a same plane perpendicular to the probe axis when the removable probe 20 is mated with the main body In some embodiments, a length of the removable probe 22 and the main body probe 20 may be equal.

In an example embodiment, the latch assembly may be configured in such a way that when the mating protrusion is inserted into the socket , the lead tips 72 are substantially even with each other i. Moreover, the latch assembly may be configured in such a way that when the mating protrusion is inserted into the socket , the lead tips 72 are spaced apart from each other by a predetermined distance. For example, the predetermined distance may be a standard distance between receptacle slots for receiving power plugs.

Example embodiments may therefore provide a firm connection between the removable probe 22 and the main body probe 20 and also meet various standard arrangements and testing requirements. As can be seen in FIG. For example, the digital display may show absolute voltage values in addition to the incremental thresholds indicated by series of lights In some embodiments, a cap may also be provided.

The lead tips 72 may be inserted into the cap when the mating protrusion is inserted into the socket so that the lead tips 72 are substantially parallel to each other and at approximately the same height. The cap may protect the lead tips 72 and prevent them from getting stuck in cloth or other materials when the tester is not in use.

It can thus be seen that the present invention provides a tester having alternately attachable or separable probes. While preferred embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, modifications and variations may be made thereto by those of ordinary skill in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. In addition, it should be understood that aspects of the various embodiments may be interchanged both in whole or in part.

Furthermore, those of ordinary skill in the art will appreciate that the foregoing description is by way of example only, and is not intended to be limitative of the invention as further described in the appended claims. What is claimed is: 1. A tester comprising: a main body including a main body probe and a front panel including selectable options for selecting a tester function; and. The tester of claim 1 , wherein the front panel includes a readout panel comprising a series of lights that selectably provide backlight to numbered values defined on the readout panel based on readings measured using the main body probe and the removable probe.

The tester of claim 1 , wherein the front panel and the removable probe each include test feature buttons selectable to initiate test procedures. The tester of claim 1 , wherein the front panel includes a digital display. The tester of claim 1 , wherein the mating protrusion comprises an arcuate groove disposed around at least two sides of a base thereof to form cantilevered extension portions that at least extend along a longitudinal length of the main body.

The tester of claim 1 , wherein the alignment ridge is disposed proximate to the socket and extends radially outward from the removable probe in a plane substantially perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the removable probe. The tester of claim 6 , wherein the alignment ridge includes an edge that fits snugly against a mating surface of the main body to inhibit rotational movement of the removable probe when the mating protrusion is disposed in the socket.

The tester of claim 1 , wherein the probe support ridge extends radially outward from at least a portion of the main body and lies in a plane that is substantially perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the main body.

The tester of claim 8 , wherein the probe support ridge extends at least over a back panel of the main body and a side panel of the main body that is proximate to the removable probe when the removable probe is fixed to the main body via the latch assembly.
