Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of pressure measuring instruments, and specifically relates to a miniaturized high-pressure pressure switch. Background Art

[0002] Pressure switches are widely used in various onboard equipment of aircraft to provide pressure on / off signals. Pressure switches can be divided into two categories according to their working principles: the first category is mechanical pressure switches, which use the deformation of sensitive elements such as end tubes or diaphragms to push the micro switch or contact piece on or off through the transmission mechanism, thereby outputting a switch signal; the second category is electronic signal devices, which use silicon piezoresistors to measure system pressure, output voltage signals, and compare them with reference voltages to determine the on / off of the relay, thereby controlling the on / off of the pressure switch.

[0003] Compared with electronic pressure switches, mechanical pressure switches have low cost and high reliability, and can adapt to complex electromagnetic environments and harsh natural environments. Common mechanical pressure switches have obvious disadvantages, mainly because they require a large space structure and are heavy, which cannot meet the space structure requirements of airborne equipment.

[0037] The present invention belongs to the technical field of pressure instruments and meters, and relates to a structural design of a miniaturized high-pressure pressure switch. It includes a pressure sensing component and a reed switch adjustment component, the pressure sensing component includes a nozzle 1, a diaphragm 2, a sleeve 3, a push rod 4, a mounting frame 5, and a magnetic bead 6, and the reed switch adjustment component includes a reed switch 7, a stud 8, a mounting seat 9, and a jacket nut 10; the diaphragm is used to sense the system pressure, and after the diaphragm is deformed by pressure, it pushes the push rod to make the magnetic bead move, and the generated switch signal is output through a cable.

[0038] The present invention simplifies the internal structure of the pressure switch, uses a reed switch to replace the traditional contact combination to convert the displacement signal into an electrical signal, and uses a sheath nut to adjust the upper and lower distances of the reed switch, so that the pressure switch can achieve the goal of miniaturization and high pressure.

[0039] See also Figure 1-Figure 9 , providing a structural design of a miniaturized high-pressure pressure switch. It includes a pressure-sensing component and a reed switch adjustment component. The pressure-sensing component includes a nozzle 1, a diaphragm 2, a stop block 3, a push rod 4, a mounting frame 5, and a magnetic bead 6; the reed switch adjustment component includes a reed switch 7, a stud 8, a mounting seat 9, and a sleeve nut 10. The diaphragm is used to sense the system pressure. After the diaphragm is deformed by the pressure, it pushes the push rod and then causes the magnetic bead to move, so that the contacts of the reed switch 5 are in contact or disconnected, and the switch on and off signals are output and output through a cable. The present invention simplifies the internal structure of the pressure switch, and uses a reed switch to replace the traditional contact combination to convert the displacement signal into an electrical signal, so that the pressure switch can achieve the goal of miniaturization and high pressure.

[0040] This application has the following technical effects:

[0041] 1. The present invention designs a miniaturized high-pressure pressure switch through a jacket nut scheme, and realizes the linear up and down movement of the reed switch by rotating the jacket nut;

[0042] 2. The present invention innovatively uses a combination of a magnetic bead and a reed switch for a pressure switch;

[0043] 3. The present invention has the characteristics of low cost, high reliability and high update and iteration efficiency.

[0044] In other embodiments of the present application, the present application provides a structural design of a miniaturized high-pressure pressure switch, including a pressure-sensing component and a reed switch adjustment component, wherein the pressure-sensing component includes a nozzle 1, a diaphragm 2, a stopper 3, a push rod 4, a mounting frame 5, and a magnetic bead 6; and the reed switch adjustment component includes a reed switch 7, a stud 8, a mounting seat 9, and a jacket nut 10.

[0045] The working principle of the pressure switch is to use a diaphragm (the top of which can be equipped with magnetic beads of different magnetic forces) to sense the system pressure. When the measured pressure P enters the pressure chamber through the nozzle, the diaphragm deforms after sensing the pressure, and its center produces a corresponding displacement, pushing the top rod and thus causing the magnetic beads to move. When the measured pressure is greater than the atmospheric pressure, the diaphragm drives the magnetic column to move upward. At the same time, the diaphragm is limited by the lower stop nut when the limit pressure is reached, and no more displacement occurs, ensuring that the performance of the diaphragm is intact and plastic deformation is not caused by excessive displacement; when the measured pressure begins to return to atmospheric pressure, the diaphragm recovers and deforms back to the initial position, and the movement of the magnetic column causes the contacts of the reed switch 7 to contact or disconnect, thereby achieving the purpose of outputting the switch on and off signals and monitoring the pressure.

[0046] First, fix the push rod 4 to the center of the diaphragm 2 by electron beam welding, fix the diaphragm assembly to the pressure measuring nozzle 1 by electron beam welding, then fix the magnetic bead 6 to the stop block 3 by gluing, and screw the stop block 3 into the thread of the push rod 4. Finally, fix the reed switch 7 to the mounting seat 9 by gluing, and install it on the stud 8. The other side of the stud is screwed into the outer nut 10, and the whole is screwed into the threaded hole of the mounting frame 5 through the outer nut. After completing the above assembly, the threaded connection between the moving block and the pressure measuring nozzle is supplemented and fixed and sealed by laser welding.

[0047] When the system pressure rises to the pressure switch point, the diaphragm 2 senses the pressure and moves, pushing the top rod-magnetic bead upward, causing the contacts of the normally open reed switch to contact, thereby outputting a connection signal.

[0048] When the system pressure increases further, the diaphragm 2 is already limited by the stop block 3 at a certain pressure and no longer moves, thereby preventing the diaphragm from plastically deforming under overpressure conditions.

[0049] When the system pressure drops to the pressure switch point, the diaphragm 2 begins to recover its deformation and drives the push rod 4 to move downward, so that the closed reed switch contacts are disconnected, thereby outputting a disconnection signal.
