DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] The following will be combined with the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0027] Example 1

[0028] like Figure 1 to Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment proposes an anti-pressure and anti-freeze pressure plate for a sensor, including a pipe 1 and a shell 2 movably installed on the pipe 1, an embedded structure 3 is arranged inside the shell 2, a connecting pipe 4 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the pipe 1, a transducer 5 is movably arranged inside the connecting pipe 4, and a sealing component 6 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the connecting pipe 4 near the upper end; a probe seat 7 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the pipe 1, a latch part 8 is connected between the shell 2 and the probe seat 7, and an embedded temperature measuring probe 9 is connected to the lower end of the shell 2 corresponding to the inner side of the probe seat 7.

[0029] The embedded structure 3 includes a connection groove 31 opened at the lower end of the pipe 1, an embedded stainless steel plate 32 is embedded in the shell 2, and a positioning component 33 is arranged on the outer surface of the embedded stainless steel plate 32;

[0030] The positioning assembly 33 includes a through hole 331 opened on the outer surface of the embedded stainless steel plate 32. A positioning rod 332 is movably arranged inside the through hole 331. An elastic ball 333 is fixedly connected to the top of the positioning rod 332. A positioning sheet 334 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the positioning rod 332.

[0031] The embedded stainless steel plate 32 and the connecting groove 31 are combined together by one-time inlay injection molding. The diameter of the positioning rod 332 is equal to the diameter of the through hole 331, and the elastic ball 333 is made of elastic rubber material; the material of the positioning piece 334 is the same as that of the embedded stainless steel plate 32, and the through holes 331 are divided into several groups and distributed in an array. The spherical diameter of the elastic ball 333 is larger than the diameter of the positioning rod 332, and the larger part does not exceed one quarter of the diameter of the positioning component 33; the distance from the positioning piece 334 to the lower end of the elastic ball 333 is equal to the depth of the through hole 331, and the material of the positioning rod 332 is the same as that of the shell 2.

[0032] In this embodiment, during injection molding production, the user can first insert one end of the elastic ball 333 at the upper end of the positioning rod 332 into the position corresponding to the through hole 331 until the upper end of the elastic ball 333 is exposed from the hole of the through hole 331. At this time, the outer surface of the positioning piece 334 fits with the outer surface of the lower end of the embedded stainless steel plate 32, which can form an interval positioning effect, which is conducive to the rapid injection molding. At the same time, the embedded stainless steel plate 32 and the shell 2 are combined together through the injection molding technology, which is not only simple to assemble, but also can increase the overall strength of the shell 2, effectively reduce the occupied space, greatly save costs, and have anti-corrosion and anti-rust effects.

[0033] When in use, the embedded stainless steel plate 32 and the shell 2 can be combined together through an integral injection molding process, thereby increasing the overall strength of the shell 2, saving space and cost, and effectively playing a role in corrosion and rust prevention.

[0034] Example 2

[0035] like Figure 5 As shown, based on Example 1, it is also proposed that the sealing assembly 6 includes an elastic layer 61 connected to the outer surface of the transducer 5, and an inner ring body 62 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the transducer 5 at the axis of the elastic layer 61, and an airbag 63 is arranged between the inner ring body 62 and the elastic layer 61.

[0036] The elastic layer 61, the inner ring body 62 and the airbag 63 are all annular structures that match the outer surface of the connecting tube 4. The elastic layer 61 is made of elastic material. When the shell 2 and the pipeline 1 are connected, the outer surface of the elastic layer 61 and the shell 2 are in line contact. The interior of the airbag 63 is filled with gas that expands due to heat. The inner ring body 62 and the connecting tube 4 are both made of heat-conducting materials. The heat generated by the transducer 5 causes the airbag 63 to expand.

[0037] In this embodiment, after the shell 2 and the connecting tube 4 are fitted together, a certain amount of heat is generated due to the use of the transducer 5. The heat is transferred to the inner ring body 62 and the airbag 63 through the connecting tube 4. The gas in the airbag 63 expands due to the heat, so that the elastic layer 61 and the shell 2 are fitted together, so that the embedded stainless steel plate 32 is not outside and is not easily contacted with the outside world and corroded by external substances.

[0038] During use, the stability of the transducer 5 can cause the sealing assembly 6 to expand as a whole, so that the sealing assembly 6 and the shell 2 fit tightly, thereby enhancing the tightness of the connection between the shell 2 and the connecting pipe 4.

[0039] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
