The invention discloses a gas outburst sensor based on a
sound wave principle and belongs to a gas sensor. The gas outburst sensor comprises a casing, a frontal sound cavity, an
ultrasound piezoelectric film, lateral sound cavities,
metal films, fixing
electrode plates and a lead, wherein the frontal sound cavity is arranged in front of the casing, the lateral sound cavities are arranged on the side of the casing, the
ultrasound piezoelectric film is connected in the frontal sound cavity, the
metal films and the fixing
electrode plates are sequentially connected in the lateral sound cavities, the lead and the
ultrasound piezoelectric film are connected at the back of the casing, at the same time, the lead, the
metal films and the fixing
electrode plates are arranged, the frontal sound cavity and the ultrasound piezoelectric film form an ultrasonic
detector, the number of the lateral sound cavities, the metal films and the fixing electrode plates is respectively two, the lateral sound cavities, the metal films and the fixing electrode plates form two low-frequency acoustic detectors, and by the aid of detection of high-
frequency sound waves and low-
frequency sound waves, sound
waves produced by gas jet which is ejected out of seams of
coal layers can be analyzed. The gas outburst sensor has the advantages that high-
frequency sound wave signals and low-frequency
sound wave signals which are ejected out by the high-pressure gas in the
coal layers through seams of the
coal layers can be detected, and real-time monitoring for mine gas outburst is achieved.
