[0018] It is to be understood that both the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary, and are intended to provide further explanation of the technology as claimed. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0019] Figure 1 The figure is a schematic cross-sectional view of a liquid level float switch according to an embodiment of the utility model.

[0020] Figure 2 The present invention is a schematic structural diagram of a liquid level float switch in use according to an embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings to further illustrate the present invention.

[0022] First, combine Figure 1~2 A liquid level float switch according to an embodiment of the utility model is described, which is used to detect the height of the water level and has a wide range of application scenarios.

[0023] like Figure 1~2 As shown, a liquid level float switch according to an embodiment of the utility model comprises a housing 1, an anti-reverse groove 2, a fixing frame 3, a steel ball 4, a weighted iron sand 5, a micro switch 6, a waterproof cover 7 and an epoxy resin 8.

[0024] Specifically, Figure 1~2 As shown, a placement cavity 11 is provided inside the shell 1; the anti-reverse groove 2 is opened inside the shell 1; the fixing frame 3 is inserted into the anti-reverse groove 2, and a storage area 31 is provided inside the fixing frame 3; the steel ball 4 is arranged in the storage area 31; the weighted iron sand 5 is arranged inside the shell 1; the micro switch 6 is arranged on the top of the fixing frame 3, and the cable 61 of the micro switch 6 passes through the weighted iron sand 5 and the bottom of the shell 1 in sequence; the waterproof cover 7 covers the fixing frame 3 and the micro switch 6, and is inserted into the weighted iron sand 5; the epoxy resin 8 fixes the waterproof cover 7, the weighted iron sand 5, the fixing frame 3 and the shell 1 together, and a hot melt process is used to prevent the epoxy resin 8 from penetrating, so as to prevent the operation failure caused by the steel ball 4 being stuck.

[0025] Further, if Figure 1~2 As shown, the housing 1 is composed of an upper housing 12 and a lower housing 13, and the upper housing 12 is covered on the lower housing 13 for easy assembly.

[0026] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the housing 1 is made of ABS plastic material, which has a good anti-corrosion effect and can be used for a long time.

[0027] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the waterproof cover 7 is made of a transparent material.

[0028] Further, if Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, a limiting protrusion is provided on the inner side of the fixing frame 3 to limit the steel ball 4 from being separated from the storage area 31 to prevent it from being separated and the device cannot be used normally.

[0029] Further, if Figure 1~2 As shown, a liquid level float switch of an embodiment of the utility model further includes: a counterweight block 9, which is connected to a cable 61 of a micro switch 6, so that the liquid level float switch can float up and down relative to the counterweight block 9.

[0030] Working principle:

[0031] The float level switch uses the buoyancy of the liquid to monitor and control the liquid level, as follows:

[0032] When the float liquid level switch is facing upward, the water level rises, and the float is in a vertical state due to buoyancy. The steel ball 4 is located at the bottom of the storage area 31 and does not touch the micro switch 6. At this time, the power is cut off and the water supply is stopped.

[0033] The float liquid level switch is in a hanging state, the water level drops, and the float is in a hanging state due to buoyancy. The steel ball 4 rolls on the top of the storage area 31 and touches the Omron micro switch 6. At this time, power is connected to start water supply.

[0034] Above, refer to Figure 1~2 The invention describes a liquid level float switch according to an embodiment of the utility model, which is equipped with a transparent special-shaped waterproof cover 7, which can not only prevent water vapor and prevent short circuit failure caused by tin whiskers, but also prevent the top of the waterproof cover 7 from pressing on the circuit to achieve installation consistency. It also solves the problem of switch failure caused by reverse installation of the float switch.
