[0020] like Figure 1As shown, a piezoelectric detector resistant to high hydrostatic pressure is characterized in that it mainly includes an end cover 1, a piezoelectric ceramic tube 2, a rubber coating layer 3, a decoupling ring 4 and a decoupling ring 5. The piezoelectric ceramic tube 2 is made of lead zirconate titanate material, the inner ring surface of the piezoelectric ceramic tube 2 is plated with a silver layer to form a positive electrode, and the outer ring surface of the piezoelectric ceramic tube 2 is plated with a silver layer to form a negative electrode.

[0021] The end cap 1 is made of engineering plastics with high strength, easy processing and good adhesion to polyurethane rubber, and includes a connecting section, a middle section and a tail section. The connecting section is provided with a sealing groove C1-3 and fixedly connected to the rubber coating layer 3, the middle section is provided with a sealing groove B1-1, and the tail section is provided with a sealing groove A1-2. When the high hydrostatic pressure resistant piezoelectric detector is installed and matched with structures such as an electronic tube, it can play a sealing role.

[0022] The decoupling ring 4 includes a shaft A4-1, a flange 4-2 and a shaft B4-4. The shaft A4-1 is inserted into the end cover 1. The shaft B4-4 is provided with a fan-shaped notch 10. The flange 4-2 is a truncated cone structure with an inclined outer edge to increase the connection strength. The notch 10 is used to avoid the welding point formed by the positive electrode wire A6 being welded to the inner wall positive electrode of the piezoelectric ceramic tube 2.

[0023] The decoupling ring 5 is a stepped shaft structure, in which the small diameter end has the same diameter as the shaft B4-4 and is connected end-face to end, and a piezoelectric ceramic tube 2 is arranged in the groove formed by the end face of the large diameter end, the flange end face 4-3, the small diameter end and the outer circle of the shaft B4-4, and the small diameter end, the shaft B4-4 and the inner wall of the piezoelectric ceramic tube 2 are tightly matched.

[0025] The rubber coating layer 3 is formed by injecting polyurethane rubber into a casting mold through a hot casting process.

[0026] The wire A6 and the wire B7 are standard wires with PVC sheaths.

[0027] Installation process:

[0028] First, two PVC-sheathed wires A6 and B7 are welded to the inner and outer walls of the piezoelectric ceramic tube 2, respectively serving as the positive and negative electrodes of the detector. The positive wire welding point is located in the middle of the inner wall of the piezoelectric ceramic tube 2, and the negative wire welding point is located at the upper part of the outer wall of the piezoelectric ceramic tube 2, to facilitate the lead-out of wire B7.

[0029] Then, the decoupling ring 4 is inserted into the piezoelectric ceramic tube 2 , the notch of the decoupling ring 4 is aligned with the positive electrode welding point on the inner wall of the piezoelectric ceramic tube 2 , and the positive electrode wire A6 passes through the center hole A11 of the decoupling ring 4 .

[0030] Next, the decoupling ring 5 is inserted into the piezoelectric ceramic tube 2, the end cover 1 is matched with the decoupling ring 4, and the positive and negative electrodes of the wire are passed through the center hole B8 of the end cover 1 respectively.

[0031] The above components are loaded into a cylindrical casting mold together, and the center line of the piezoelectric ceramic tube 2 is adjusted to coincide with the center line of the casting mold. Then the prepared polyurethane liquid rubber is slowly injected into the casting mold, and then the whole is put into an oven for heating and curing, and finally the casting mold is removed.
