[0035] A reserved interface end 2 is installed on the outer side of the pressure sensor body 1, and a reserved connection cable 11 is plugged into the inner side of the reserved interface end 2;

[0036] The outer side of the reserved interface end 2 is fixedly connected with an elastic external extension end 3, and the outer side of the external extension end 3 is threadedly connected with a nested threaded member 4, and the outer end of the nested threaded member 4 is nested with a built-in nested docking member 5, and the inner side of the pressure sensor body 1 and the reserved interface end 2 is provided with an auxiliary self-locking structure for positioning the contacted reserved connection cable 11;

[0037] The auxiliary self-locking structure is provided with a reserved steel wire rope 6, and the reserved steel wire rope 6 is docked on the outside of the built-in nested docking piece 5, and the reserved steel wire rope 6 passes through the inside of the pressure sensor body 1; a transverse guide groove 7 is opened inside the pressure sensor body 1, and a wedge-shaped docking piece 8 is nested and installed on the inner side of the transverse guide groove 7, and the end of the wedge-shaped docking piece 8 is docked with the end of the reserved steel wire rope 6.
