[0002] In the vast field of modern technology, pressure measurement, as a key means of obtaining physical parameters, is widely used in various aspects such as industrial production, aerospace, medical equipment, automobile manufacturing, and daily life. Accurate and reliable pressure measurement plays a vital role in ensuring the safe operation of systems, optimizing production processes, improving product quality, and realizing intelligent control.

The pressure sensor body includes a fixed tube, a fixed seat movably mounted on the top of the fixed tube, a movable seat movably mounted on the side of the fixed seat, a movable ring movably mounted on the side of the movable seat, a fixed ring welded to the top of the movable ring, a slot on the fixed ring, a movable plate movably mounted inside the slot, a sliding groove on the side of the movable plate, and a slider welded inside the slot. The slider is slidably mounted inside the sliding groove via a reset mechanism. In this piezoelectric pressure sensor, the fixed tube is movably mounted on a support tube via a fixed post during use. Later, when the electronic components inside the fixed tube and the threaded tube are damaged, the fixed tube can be quickly disassembled from the support tube, thus only the fixed tube needs to be replaced, reducing maintenance costs.

[0004] The piezoelectric pressure sensor described above can move the movable ring up and down during use, and make one end of the movable rod contact the movable seat and the fixed seat respectively, thereby adjusting the exposed length of the movable plate, thereby increasing or decreasing the contact area between the device and the outside. However, the pressure sensor described above cannot provide an optical liquid level display of the internal liquid, and cannot calculate the pressure based on the liquid level height. Its performance during use is not good and needs to be improved. Summary of the Invention

The installation protection assembly is configured such that the mating block can be inserted into the groove during placement. The cover slides downwards until the magnetic plate contacts the magnetic suction plate, and the two magnetically connect to lock and secure the sealed cover. This seals and protects the internal circuit components, ensuring normal operation. The connecting box also contains a shape memory alloy element, a pressure-sensitive element made of nickel-titanium shape memory alloy. The shape memory alloy element is straight, and by adjusting the composition and processing technology, its trigger pressure threshold is precisely controlled between 1-10 MPa.

[0018] This piezoelectric pressure sensor features a liquid level observation component. The liquid level is displayed on the front of the sensor via a liquid level display tube. The scale range is calibrated based on the compressibility of the liquid and the expected pressure range. For convenient data observation, an optical magnifying glass can be used, allowing for direct observation of the data and optical liquid level display. The pressure can be calculated from the liquid level height, resulting in good performance. When the liquid level observation component is operational, the stepper motor starts, and its output shaft drives the screw to rotate. The threaded sleeve, connected to the screw, has an internal groove that matches the diameter of the limiting slide rod. Under the constraint of the limiting slide rod, it does not rotate freely with the screw but slides down its surface. The support plate fixed to the side of the threaded sleeve slides within the groove inside the limiting slide. Because the groove width matches the thickness of the support plate, lateral movement of the support plate is prevented, ensuring stable vertical movement. The position of the optical magnifying glass fixed to the front of the support plate is also adjusted.

[0019] This piezoelectric pressure sensor features a protective mounting assembly and a waterproof gasket, which provides excellent insulation and waterproofing for the connecting housing. During use, the sealing cover is placed on top of the connecting housing. When the cover is placed, the mating block is inserted into the groove and slides down until the magnetic plate contacts the magnetic suction plate.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention according to the specific circumstances.

[0032] Please see Figure 1-8 The present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0033] A piezoelectric pressure sensor includes a connecting chamber 1, an extraction component 2 on the left side of the connecting chamber 1, a mounting and protective component 3 on the right side of the connecting chamber 1, and a liquid level observation component 4 on the front of the connecting chamber 1. The liquid chamber is constructed to form a closed liquid chamber, which is made of high-strength, transparent acrylic material. The acrylic plate on the side of the chamber is 3-5 mm thick, which can ensure sufficient strength to withstand pressure and meet the requirements of transparent observation.

[0034] The liquid level observation component 4 includes a hollow box 401. A connecting bracket 402 is fixedly connected to the right side of the hollow box 401. A liquid level display tube 403 is fixedly connected to the front of the hollow box 401. A scale bar 404 is fixedly connected to the left side of the front of the hollow box 401. A fixing plate 407 is fixedly connected to the bottom left side of the front of the hollow box 401. A limiting slide rod 408 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixing plate 407. A limiting slide 406 is fixedly connected to the front of the hollow box 401. A stepper is fixedly connected to the front of the limiting slide 406. The output shaft of the stepper motor 405 is fixedly connected to a screw 410. A threaded sleeve 409 is threadedly connected to the surface of the screw 410. The threaded sleeve 409 is slidably connected to the surface of the limiting slide 408. A bearing plate 411 is fixedly connected to the top front of the limiting slide 406. The bearing plate 411 is fixedly connected to the side of the threaded sleeve 409. The bearing plate 411 is slidably connected to the inside of the limiting slide 406. An optical magnifying glass 412 is fixedly connected to the front of the bearing plate 411. The liquid level observation component 4 is set up to provide a direct visual observation. The observation data is used for optical liquid level display, which can calculate the pressure based on the liquid level height. It performs well in use. The limiting slide 406 has an internal groove whose width is adapted to the thickness of the support plate 411, allowing the support plate 411 to slide up and down within the limiting slide 406. Adjusting the position of the optical magnifying lens 412, the limiting slide 406 limits the sliding of the support plate 411, preventing lateral slippage that could affect the normal operation of the device. The bottom of the support plate 411 is fixedly connected... A bearing is attached, and the top end of the screw 410 is fixedly connected to the inner ring of the bearing. A circular groove is formed inside the threaded sleeve 409, the diameter of which matches the diameter of the limiting slide rod 408. The groove allows the threaded sleeve 409 to pass through the limiting slide rod 408 for sliding and limiting, ensuring the threaded sleeve 409 can move up and down on the surface of the screw 410 instead of spinning freely, thus ensuring the normal operation of the device. A graduated scale is installed next to the liquid level display tube 403. The scale is made of stainless steel and has a graduation accuracy of 0.1 mm. The scale range is calibrated according to the compressibility of the liquid and the expected pressure range to be measured.

[0035] When the liquid level observation component 4 is working, the stepper motor component 405 starts, and its output shaft drives the screw 410 to rotate. The threaded sleeve 409, which is threaded to the screw 410, has an internal groove that matches the diameter of the limiting slide bar 408. Under the restriction of the limiting slide bar 408, it will not slide down the surface of the screw 410 without rotating freely. The support plate 411 fixed on the side of the threaded sleeve 409 slides in the groove inside the limiting slide 406. Because the width of the groove matches the thickness of the support plate 411, it can prevent the support plate 411 from moving laterally and ensure its stable up and down movement. The position of the optical magnifying glass 412 fixed on the front of the support plate 411 is also adjusted. At this time, the operator can directly observe the liquid level data through the scale made of stainless steel next to the liquid level display tube 403, which has a scale accuracy of 0.1 mm and is calibrated according to the compressibility of the liquid and the expected measurement pressure range. Then, based on the correspondence between the liquid level height and the pressure, the operator can calculate the current pressure, thereby realizing the functions of optical liquid level display and pressure measurement.

[0036] Preferably, the installation protective assembly 3 includes a connecting box 301, a groove 302, a circuit element 303, a waterproof pad 304, a magnetic plate 305, a sealing cover 306, a magnetic plate 307, and a docking block 308.

The magnetic plate 305 is fixedly connected to the back of the waterproof pad 304 near the top. The magnetic plate 307 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sealing cover 306. The docking block 308 is fixedly connected to the right side of the sealing cover 306. The installation protective assembly 3 is positioned such that when placed... The connector 308 can be inserted into the groove 302 and slide down until the magnet plate 307 contacts the magnetic plate 305. The two contact and magnetically connect to lock and fix the sealing cover 306, which can seal and protect the internal circuit components 303 to ensure normal operation. The inside of the connecting box 301 is also equipped with a shape memory alloy element. The pressure sensitive element is made of nickel-titanium shape memory alloy. The shape memory alloy element is straight. By adjusting the composition and processing technology of the shape memory alloy, its trigger pressure threshold is precisely controlled between 1-10 MPa. The shape memory alloy element is connected to a simple circuit, which consists of a DC power supply, a resistor and an alarm device connected in series. The DC power supply voltage is 3-12 volts. The resistance value is selected according to the working voltage and current requirements of the alarm device, generally between 100-1000 ohms. When the shape memory alloy element deforms and connects the circuit, the alarm device emits an alarm signal. The sealing cover 306 is inserted into the top of the connecting box 301. When the sealing cover 306 is placed on the top of the connecting box 301, the mating block 308 can be inserted into the inside of the groove 302, which can seal and protect the internal circuit element 303 to ensure normal operation. The width of the mating block 308 is adapted to the width of the groove 302. The mating block 308 is slidably connected to the right side of the connecting box 301. The area of ​​the sealing cover 306 is adapted to the inner area of ​​the connecting box 301, which can be placed on top to block and seal and protect the internal circuit element 303 to ensure normal operation.

[0037] When installing the protective component 3, the sealing cover 306 is placed on top of the connecting box 301. At this time, the mating block 308, with its width adapted to the groove 302, is precisely inserted into the groove 302 and slides down along the right side of the connecting box 301 until the magnetic plate 307 fixed at the bottom of the sealing cover 306 contacts the magnetic suction plate 305 on the top back of the waterproof gasket 304 on the inner wall of the connecting box 301. The two are tightly connected by magnetic attraction, thereby firmly locking the sealing cover 306 and achieving sealing protection for the internal circuit components 303 of the connecting box 301. The waterproof gasket 304 further enhances the sealing effect and isolates external interference. Meanwhile, the nickel-titanium shape memory alloy pressure-sensitive element inside the connecting box 301 is in the shape of a straight strip. Through composition and process adjustment, the trigger pressure threshold is controlled at 1-10 MPa. It is connected to a circuit consisting of a 3-12 volt DC power supply, a 100-1000 ohm resistor and an alarm device connected in series. When the pressure causes the shape memory alloy element to deform and connect the circuit, the alarm device immediately issues an alarm signal, realizing the function of pressure abnormality monitoring and alarm, and ensuring the stability and reliability of the pressure sensor.

The liquid level can then be displayed using the liquid level display tube 403 on the front. The graduation range of the scale bar 404 is calibrated according to the compressibility of the liquid and the expected pressure range to be measured. For convenient data observation, it can be used with an optical magnifying glass 412. During use, the positions of the support plate 411 and the optical magnifying glass 412 can be adjusted in real time according to the liquid level. During adjustment, the stepper motor 405 can be activated to drive the screw 410 to rotate, allowing the threaded sleeve 409 to slide up and down along the surface of the screw 410. This allows the support plate 411 to slide up and down against the inside of the limiting slide 406. The position of the optical magnifying glass 412 is adjusted using a magnifying glass structure with a focal length of [missing information]. With a height of 3-5 cm and a diameter of 4-6 cm, it allows for intuitive observation of data and optical liquid level display. It can calculate the pressure based on the liquid level, providing good performance during use. A protective assembly 3 is installed on the right side of the connecting chamber 1. Circuit components 303 are placed inside the connecting housing 301. The waterproof gasket 304 provides excellent insulation and waterproofing for the connecting housing 301. During use, the sealing cover 306 can be placed on top of the connecting housing 301. When placing the housing, the mating block 308 can be inserted into the groove 302 and slide downwards until the magnetic plate 307 aligns with the magnetic suction plate. Contact 305 allows for magnetic connection, locking and securing the sealed cover 306. This seals and protects the internal circuit components 303, ensuring proper operation. The connecting housing 301 also houses a shape memory alloy element, a pressure-sensitive element made of nickel-titanium shape memory alloy. The shape memory alloy element is linear, and its trigger pressure threshold is precisely controlled between 1-10 MPa by adjusting its composition and processing technology. The shape memory alloy element is connected to a simple circuit consisting of a DC power supply, a resistor, and an alarm device connected in series. The DC power supply voltage is 3-12 volts, and the resistor value is selected based on the alarm device's operating voltage and current requirements, typically between 100-1000 ohms. When the shape memory alloy element deforms and connects to the circuit, the alarm device emits an alarm signal.
