[0027] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Based on the embodiments in 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.

[0028] See also Figures 1 to 4 The utility model provides a technical solution: a high-sensitivity temperature sensor, including a thermistor shell 1. Through the setting of the thermistor shell 1, the high temperature resistance, mechanical protection strength and the resistance of thermistor 12 to chemical substances are improved. A wire column 2 is bonded to the bottom of the thermistor shell 1, and limiting holes 3 are provided on both sides of the wire column 2. A damping spring 4 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the limiting hole 3, and a locking column 5 is fixedly connected to one end of the damping spring 4. A mounting cone 6 is plugged into the surface of the wire column 2, and locking holes 17 are provided on both sides of the mounting cone 6. An inner socket 7 is fixedly installed in the middle of the bottom surface of the mounting cone 6. Two plug-in grooves 8 are provided on the surface of the inner socket 7, and a plug-in seat 9 is fixedly installed inside the two plug-in grooves 8. A connector 10 is plugged into the inside of the plug-in seat 9. Through the comprehensive setting of the locking column 5, the mounting cone 6, the plug-in seat 9 and the connector 10, the surface of the connector 10 is connected to the thermistor 12 through a copper wire 11.

[0029] The material of the thermistor housing 1 is ceramic, and a thermistor 12 is fixedly installed inside the thermistor housing 1. The arrangement of the thermistor housing 1 encapsulated and wrapped by the ceramic material plays a role in ensuring the stable operation of the thermistor 12.

[0030] The surface of the locking column 5 is slidably connected to the inside of the limiting hole 3 and the locking hole 17, and the inside of the limiting hole 3 and the locking hole 17 penetrate each other. Through the setting of the limiting hole 3 and the locking hole 17, the locking column 5 is inserted into the inside of the limiting hole 3 and the locking hole 17, so that the wire column 2 is fixed on the inside of the mounting cone 6.

[0031] A conductive metal 13 is soldered on the bottom of the socket 9. The conductive metal 13 is made of copper. One end of the conductive metal 13 is connected to an external wire 14. The socket 9 is configured to encapsulate the conductive metal 13 and facilitate disconnection of the thermistor 12, thereby facilitating replacement of the thermistor 12.

[0032] The surface of the copper wire 11 penetrates and connects to the inside of the conductor post 2 , and the surface of the connector 10 is fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the conductor post 2 . The thermistor 12 connected to the copper wire 11 improves the current conduction performance and maintains the sensitivity of the thermistor 12 .

[0033] A gasket 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner socket 7, and a waterproof socket 16 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the gasket 15. The sealed waterproof socket 16 can prevent water from entering the installation cone 6 and avoid short circuits in the temperature sensor.

[0034] The conductor post 2 is made of epoxy resin. The conductor post 2 is cylindrical and inserted into the interior of the mounting cone 6. The conductor post 2 made of epoxy resin ensures the heat resistance and insulation performance of the copper wire 11 running through the interior.

[0035] The materials of the mounting cone 6 and the inner socket 7 are both plastic, and the mounting cone 6 and the inner socket 7 are integrally pressed and formed. The mounting cone 6 and the inner socket 7 made of plastic reduce the production cost of the temperature sensor.

[0036] The model of thermistor 12 is MF52, and the above parameters and models can be selected according to actual conditions.

[0037] In the utility model, the working steps of the device are as follows:

[0038] Step 1: When the thermistor 12 is aged, the locking posts 5 on both sides of the wire post 2 are pressed in the limiting hole 3 on the installation cone 6, and the locking posts 5 on both sides slide inside the limiting hole 3 and the locking hole 17, and after being separated from the locking hole 17, the wire post 2 can be separated from the inside of the installation cone 6, and the connector 10 plugged into the socket 9 is separated synchronously, so as to facilitate the disconnection of the thermistor 12 on the inner socket 7, and the aged thermistor 12 can be directly replaced;

[0039] The second step: when installing the new thermistor 12, the locking columns 5 on both sides of the new wire column 2 are pressed. Under the action of the damping spring 4 inside the limiting hole 3, the locking columns 5 on both sides shrink into the limiting hole 3, so that when the wire column 2 is inserted into the installation cone 6, it does not affect the sliding. Until the limiting hole 3 and the locking hole 17 penetrate each other, the locking column 5 loses the squeezing force of the inner wall of the installation cone 6. Under the reverse force of the damping spring 4, the locking columns 5 on both sides of the wire column 2 slide into the locking hole 17. At the same time, the connector 10 at the bottom of the wire column 2 is just inserted into the socket 9 on the top surface of the inner socket 7, so as to conduct the connection of the thermistor 12;

[0040] The third step: the thermistor 12 is wrapped with a ceramic thermal housing 1, and the copper wire 11 connected to it is encapsulated and fixed with an epoxy resin lead post 2. Under the premise of ensuring reliable sealing performance, good insulation performance and electrical performance, the thermistor 12 wrapped with ceramic can work at a higher temperature without being damaged; ceramic materials usually have good mechanical strength and hardness, so they can provide better protection and reduce the possibility of mechanical damage; ceramic materials usually have good chemical stability and can resist the erosion of some chemical substances, thereby improving the stability and durability of the thermistor 12; ceramic materials usually have good insulation properties, which can effectively isolate the circuit and reduce external interference, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the circuit.
