The following examples are used to illustrate the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0025] In the description of the present application, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "top", "bottom" and the like used in the present application to indicate orientation or positional relationship are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the present invention. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0026] In the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", "connected", "fixed" and the like should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0027] like Figure 1-7 As shown, the first aspect of an embodiment of the present application proposes a hydrogen concentration sensor installation structure, comprising: a first plate 1, a second plate 2 and a hydrogen concentration sensor 3, the first plate 1 comprising a plate body 11 and a mounting seat 12 connected to one end of the plate body 11, the plate body 11 and the mounting seat 12 are integrally formed, a flow space 4 for hydrogen to pass through is defined between the first plate 1 and the second plate 2, the flow space 4 forms a first outlet 41 and a second outlet 42 at the mounting seat 12, the hydrogen concentration sensor 3 is installed on the mounting seat 12 and connected to the first outlet 41, and the second outlet 42 is used for the hydrogen in the flow space 4 to flow out.

[0028] Based on the above technical solution, the hydrogen concentration sensor installation structure of the present application provides hydrogen movement through the flow space 4 formed by the first plate 1 and the second plate 2, so that the hydrogen reaches a suitable position, and the first plate 1 is integrated with a mounting base 12 of the hydrogen concentration sensor 3, and the hydrogen concentration sensor 3 is installed on the mounting base 12, without adding an additional sensor mounting connector, which effectively improves the installation integration, and a first outlet 41 for connecting the hydrogen concentration sensor 3 and a second outlet 42 for supplying hydrogen to other positions are provided at the position of the mounting base 12, and the hydrogen gradually stabilizes after passing through the flow space 4, and the hydrogen concentration sensor 3 is arranged at the position of the first outlet 41 to ensure the accuracy of the detection result, and the remaining hydrogen can flow out through the second outlet 42 to ensure the normal operation of the fuel cell engine.

[0029] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 6 , 7 As shown, the first plate 1 and the second plate 2 are arranged in sequence from top to bottom. The first plate 1 and the second plate 2 are arranged in an upper and lower spacing manner, so that a flow space 4 is formed between the first plate 1 and the second plate 2, and hydrogen can pass through the middle. This structure is adapted to the overall structure of the fuel cell engine and can achieve better hydrogen transportation efficiency.

[0030] Specifically, Figure 1-3 and Figure 6 , 7 As shown, the first outlet 41 is opened toward the upper side of the mounting seat 12. The first outlet 41 is where the hydrogen concentration sensor 3 is installed. Since hydrogen is light in weight and is more likely to float, the hydrogen concentration sensor 3 is arranged at the upper part to more accurately detect the hydrogen concentration.

[0031] More specifically, Figure 6 , 7 As shown, the second outlet 42 is opened toward the side of the mounting seat 12. Hydrogen can go to the outside of the fuel cell engine from the second outlet 42. The second outlet 42 is arranged toward the side to better discharge hydrogen and avoid the problem of poor hydrogen discharge.

[0032] More specifically, Figure 1-7 As shown, the second outlet 42 is externally connected to an outlet pipeline 5. The outlet pipeline 5 preferably adopts a structure of a pipeline matching a flange surface, the pipeline is connected to the middle position of the flange surface and extends outward, and the flange surface is installed on the side of the mounting seat 12 by fasteners to achieve hydrogen discharge.

[0033] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 4-6As shown, the second plate 2 is provided with a blowing hole 21 connected to the flow space 4. The blowing hole 21 on the second plate 2 allows hydrogen to be blown into the flow space 4 from below, flow along the flow space 4 to the first outlet 41 to complete the detection of hydrogen concentration and be discharged from the second outlet 42, thereby forming a hydrogen flow path in cooperation with the rest of the structures in the overall engine.

The box body 6 and the third plate 7 form the main structure of the box 100, and the hydrogen concentration sensor mounting structure is located on the front side of the box body 6. The connection between the mounting structure and the box 100 is realized by assembling the second plate 2 and the third plate 7, and the mounting seat 12 of the hydrogen concentration sensor 3 is integrated on the box 100, which saves costs while improving the integration of the overall structure.

[0035] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 4 As shown, the second plate 2 and the third plate 7 are integrally formed by friction welding. The second plate 2 and the third plate 7 are integrally formed by friction welding, which further improves the integration of the overall structure.

[0036] like Figure 1 As shown, a fuel cell engine comprises: the box body 100 and the engine body 200 as described above, wherein the box body 100 is installed on the top of the engine body 200. The hydrogen flow space 4 in the box body 100 is connected with the hydrogen flow path in the engine body 200 through the blowing hole 21, so that the flow of hydrogen in the fuel cell engine is completed, and the overall structure has high integration, simple structure, and cost saving.

[0037] In summary, the hydrogen concentration sensor mounting structure, the housing 100 and the fuel cell engine of the present application provide a flow space 4 for hydrogen movement formed by the first plate 1 and the second plate 2, so that the hydrogen reaches a suitable position, and the mounting base 12 of the hydrogen concentration sensor 3 is integrated on the first plate 1, and the hydrogen concentration sensor 3 is mounted on the mounting base 12, without the need to add an additional sensor mounting connector, thereby effectively improving the installation integration, and a first outlet 41 for connecting the hydrogen concentration sensor 3 and a second outlet 42 for supplying hydrogen to other positions are provided at the position of the mounting base 12, and the hydrogen gradually stabilizes after passing through the flow space 4, and the hydrogen concentration sensor 3 is arranged at the position of the first outlet 41 to ensure the accuracy of the detection result, and the remaining hydrogen can flow out through the second outlet 42 to complete the convergence, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the fuel cell engine.

[0038] The above is only a preferred implementation of the present application.
