Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of household appliances, and in particular to an oxygen sensor and a household appliance. Background Art

[0002] An oxygen sensor is a device that measures the oxygen content in a gas. It is commonly found in automobile exhaust systems to optimize combustion and reduce emissions. When the oxygen sensor is in the engine, the high ambient temperature in the exhaust system can reach 700°C or even higher, and the automobile engine will generate a lot of vibration and impact when running. Therefore, the material and structure of the sensor must be able to withstand these extreme temperatures, and the sensor must be able to withstand these mechanical loads without failure of its fixed structure and sealing.

[0003] Oxygen sensors are also used in household appliances. For example, they are used to detect the oxygen content in the air in the ventilation system, optimize the operation of the ventilation system, and ensure the indoor air quality. Oxygen sensors can be used to detect changes in the concentration of oxygen in the air to indirectly infer the steam concentration (steam will replace part of the oxygen in the air in a high temperature environment, thereby reducing the oxygen concentration measured by the oxygen sensor. By monitoring this concentration change, the steam concentration can be inferred), thereby indirectly controlling the humidity during the cooking process to make the cooked food taste better.

[0004] Since the process and material costs of oxygen sensors in traditional automotive applications are relatively high, if they are directly applied to household appliances, not only will the cost be high but also the structure will be complex. Oxygen sensors with low vibration requirements and certain temperature resistance are more suitable for household scenarios. Therefore, the present invention proposes an oxygen sensor and a household appliance to solve the problems mentioned in the above background technology. Summary of the invention
