[0010] Through the above technical scheme, the wind that has entered the first installation cavity and has been detected can be allowed to enter the second installation cavity through the second ventilation hole. At this time, under the action of multiple air guide plates, the flow direction of the wind can be changed without affecting the ventilation routes of the multiple second ventilation holes. At the same time, under the action of the wind shield, the flowing wind can enter the third installation cavity through the third ventilation hole and blow the fan blades. At this time, the fan blades will drive the rotating rod to rotate, so that the second metal circular plate rotates under the influence of wind speed. At this time, due to the electromagnetic induction effect, electricity is generated under the action of strong magnets, metal columns and copper coils, thereby achieving the purpose of converting the mechanical energy generated by the rotation of the rotating rod and the fan blades into electrical energy. At the same time, the generated electricity will be stored inside the battery.

[0024] Working principle: When the gas sensor is installed in a place with good ventilation and strong winds, the wind that has entered the first installation cavity and has been detected can enter the second installation cavity through the second ventilation hole. At this time, under the action of multiple air guide plates, the flow direction of the wind can be changed, and the ventilation routes of the multiple second ventilation holes will not be affected. At the same time, under the action of the wind shield, the wind flowing through can enter the third installation cavity through the third ventilation hole and blow the fan blades. At this time, the fan blades will drive the rotating rod to rotate, so that the second metal circular plate rotates under the influence of wind speed. At this time, due to the electromagnetic induction effect, electricity is generated under the action of strong magnets, metal columns and copper coils, thereby achieving the purpose of converting the mechanical energy generated by the rotation of the rotating rod and the fan blades into electrical energy. At the same time, the generated electricity will be stored inside the battery. At the same time, the battery can provide real-time power supply for the detection element of the gas sensor, thereby achieving the purpose of autonomous power supply without external power supply. At the same time, through the induction heads inside the multiple first installation cavities, the gas entering from the first ventilation hole can be detected at the same time, thereby achieving the purpose of simultaneously analyzing the same or different gas components, thereby improving the accuracy of detection.
