A high-pressure resistant pressure sensor provided in an embodiment of the present invention includes a sintered base 1, a corrugated diaphragm 2, a ceramic gasket 3, a protective ceramic 4, a conductive member 5, a pressure sensing element 6, a set screw 7, and a sealing ball 8. The sintered base 1 has an oil filling hole 11. The corrugated diaphragm 2 is connected to the sintered base 1. The ceramic gasket 3 is connected to the sintered base 1. The protective ceramic 4 is connected to the ceramic gasket 3. The conductive member 5 is connected to the ceramic gasket 3. The pressure sensing element 6 is connected to the conductive member 5. The set screw 7 is connected to the sintered base 1, and the set screw 7 is located inside the oil filling hole 11. The sealing ball 8 is connected to the set screw 7. A cavity 12 is formed by enclosing the sintered base 1 and the corrugated diaphragm 2. The cavity 12 is in communication with the oil filling hole 11.

The sealing ball 8 is used to seal the oil filling hole 11. The ceramic gasket 3 is located between the pressure sensing element 6 and the protective ceramic 4, wherein the ceramic gasket 3, the protective ceramic 4, the conductive member 5, and the pressure sensing element 6 are respectively located inside the cavity 12.
[0027] Wherein, inside the cavity 12 formed by enclosing the sintered base 1 and the corrugated diaphragm 2, there is a space for accommodating the ceramic gasket 3, the protective ceramic 4, the conductive member 5, the pressure sensing element 6, and silicone oil. The inner part of the pore channel of the oil filling hole 11 can be in communication with the outside and the inside of the cavity 12 respectively, so that the silicone oil is filled into the cavity 12 from the inner part of the pore channel of the oil filling hole 11. The inner part of the pore channel of the oil filling hole 11 has a space for accommodating the sealing ball 8 and the set screw 7. The set screw 7 is connected to the sintered base 1. For example, there is a thread provided on the inner wall of the pore channel inside the oil filling hole 11, and the set screw 7 located inside the pore channel of the oil filling hole 11 is threadedly connected to the inner wall thread. By installing the set screw 7 into the pore channel of the oil filling hole 11, the set screw 7 drives the sealing ball 8 to seal the inner part of the pore channel of the oil filling hole 11, preventing the silicone oil filled into the cavity 12 from overflowing from the inner part of the pore channel of the oil filling hole 11. In addition, the part of the pore channel of the oil filling hole 11 close to the sealing ball 8 can be in the shape of a conical surface, that is, it is gradually expanding along the direction close to the sealing ball 8, so that the sealing ball 8 can fit on the inner part of the pore channel of the conical surface of the oil filling hole 11 to achieve a firm seal of the oil filling hole 11.
[0028] Among them, the corrugated diaphragm 2 can have high elasticity and good sealing performance. The corrugated diaphragm 2 can respond to external pressure changes and transmit the pressure to the silicone oil located inside the cavity 12. The protective ceramic 4 layer is located between the ceramic gasket 3 and the corrugated diaphragm 2. As a barrier, the protective ceramic 4 can effectively prevent the corrugated diaphragm 2 from directly contacting the gold wire under extreme pressure, and can avoid the risk of short circuit. The conductive member 5 can export the electrical signal converted by the pressure sensing element 6 to ensure the accurate transmission of the signal. The pressure sensing element 6 can accurately sense the pressure change transmitted by the silicone oil located inside the cavity 12 and convert the pressure change into a corresponding electrical signal.
[0029] In this embodiment, the corrugated diaphragm 2 is connected to the sintered base 1. The sintered base 1 and the corrugated diaphragm 2 enclose to form a cavity 12.

The conductive member 5 is connected to the ceramic gasket 3, and the pressure sensing element 6 is connected to the conductive member 5. The ceramic gasket 3 is located between the pressure sensing element 6 and the protective ceramic 4. Among them, the ceramic gasket 3, the protective ceramic 4, the conductive member 5 and the pressure sensing element 6 are located inside the cavity 12. The setscrew 7 is connected to the sintered base 1, the setscrew 7 is located inside the oil filling hole 11, the sealing ball 8 is connected to the setscrew 7, the sealing ball 8 is located inside the oil filling hole 11, and the sealing ball 8 is used to seal the oil filling hole 11. In this way, a cavity 12 structure capable of withstanding a certain pressure is formed by the combination of the sintered base 1 and the corrugated diaphragm 2, and the silicone oil can enter the inside of the cavity 12 from the oil filling hole 11. When an external pressure acts on the corrugated diaphragm 2, the pressure is transmitted to the silicone oil inside the cavity 12 through the corrugated diaphragm 2. The silicone oil evenly distributes the pressure and conducts it to the pressure sensing element 6. The pressure sensing element 6 senses the pressure change and converts the pressure signal into an electrical signal. The conductive member 5 is used to transmit the electrical signal. The volume of the internal cavity 12 of the pressure sensor can be reduced by the ceramic gasket 3, which is beneficial to reducing the influence of the thermal expansion coefficient of the silicone oil inside the cavity 12 on the encapsulated pressure sensing element 6 and improving the stability of the sensor. And the protective ceramic 4 can effectively avoid the short circuit risk caused by the direct contact between the corrugated diaphragm 2 and the gold wire under overpressure, realizing overpressure protection of the sensor. At the same time, the effective sealing of the oil filling hole 11 under high pressure is realized through the cooperation of the sealing ball 8 and the setscrew 7, improving the pressure resistance of the sensor. Thus, the technical effects of improving the pressure resistance and enhancing the stability are achieved.

The compression ring 9 can enhance the connection strength between the sintered base 1 and the corrugated diaphragm 2, making the cavity 12 structure more stable and capable of withstanding higher pressures. At the same time, the compression ring 9 is tightly connected to the sintered base 1 by laser welding, which can ensure good sealing performance, prevent the leakage of silicone oil or other media, make the sensor more stable and reliable in a high-pressure environment, and is beneficial to extending the service life of the sensor.

The use of the patch glue can simplify the installation process of the pressure-sensitive element 6, and at the same time provide a good fixing effect, preventing the displacement or damage of the pressure-sensitive element 6 under high pressure. The gold wire as the conductive member 5 has good electrical conductivity and mechanical strength, and can meet the signal transmission requirements in a high-pressure environment. In addition, the conductive member 5 can also include aluminum or platinum materials. The glue between the conductive member 5 and the ceramic gasket 3 not only provides an additional fixing effect, but also can play an insulating and protective role, preventing electrical failures.
[0032] In some implementation manners, the ceramic gasket 3 is fixed to the sintered base 1 by a patch glue, and the protective ceramic 4 is fixed to the ceramic gasket 3 by a patch glue.

At the same time, at least a part of the lead wire 10 is located outside the cavity 12, which also avoids the influence of the high-temperature and high-pressure environment on the lead wire 10. The lead wire 10 located inside the cavity 12 can be connected to the pressure sensing element 6 or the conductive member 5, and the lead wire 10 located outside the cavity 12 can be connected to an external circuit. The pressure change is sensed by the pressure sensing element 6 and the pressure signal is converted into an electrical signal and transmitted to the outside through the lead wire 10, realizing the improvement of the stability and reliability of the sensor.
[0035] In some embodiments, the high-pressure resistant pressure sensor further includes an adhesive. The adhesive is filled inside the oil filling hole 11. The adhesive is located between the setscrew 7 and the sintered base 1. The adhesive includes an epoxy resin adhesive material. After filling the epoxy resin adhesive in the oil filling hole 11 as the adhesive, due to the excellent sealing performance of the epoxy resin adhesive, it can further ensure the sealing performance of the oil filling hole 11 under high pressure, prevent the leakage of silicone oil or other media, and is beneficial to enhancing the pressure resistance and stability of the sensor. At the same time, the epoxy resin adhesive also has a certain strength and toughness, which can absorb and disperse the stress that may occur between the setscrew 7 and the sintered base 1 to a certain extent, reducing the risk of damage caused by stress concentration. And filling the epoxy resin adhesive in the oil filling hole 11 to fix the setscrew 7 can also prevent the loosening of the setscrew 7, improve the reliability of high-pressure resistant sealing, make the pressure sensor more stable and reliable in a high-pressure environment, and extend the service life of the sensor.
