[0054] Embodiment 2:
[0055] A sensor, the rest of the features are the same as those of the first embodiment, except that: a plurality of connecting columns are provided on the back of the outer frame 1, the connecting columns include a mounting section 111 and a limiting section 110, the diameter of the limiting section 110 is larger than the diameter of the mounting section 111, and the limiting section 110 is fixedly connected to the outer frame 1, the mounting section 111 faces the back of the outer frame 1, and the mainboard mounting hole 109 is located on the mounting section 111;

[0057] Preferably, in this embodiment, the plurality of connection columns are irregularly distributed, so as to realize a fool-proof function when the mainboard 5 is installed.
[0058] Advantages of this utility model:
[0059] The utility model arranges a first heat dissipation grille 103 for ventilation around the outer frame 1, so that the heat inside the sensor housing can be effectively and quickly dissipated, and the air outside the sensor housing can be convected to the inside of the housing, so that the functional module 501 (TVOC, PM2.5 two-in-one sensor) can detect the external air quality.
[0060] The first heat dissipation grille 103 of the outer frame 1 is curved, with visual beauty in appearance and good flow-guiding effect in structure. At the same time, the first heat dissipation grilles 103 at the top and bottom are relatively located, which can make the air flow smoothly. The first heat dissipation grilles 103 at the side are symmetrical along the middle surface, which can also make the air flow smoothly. For the sensor, full convection is achieved inside the upper and lower sides and the left and right sides, so that the internal environment of the sensor housing is basically consistent with the outside world, which effectively improves the detection accuracy of the sensor.
[0061] By setting a guide channel 104 at the bottom of the outer frame 1, setting a guide plate 4, and setting a guide port 401 on the guide plate 4, the guide port 401 cooperates with the guide channel 104 to provide an air flow channel for the air inlet and the air outlet of the functional module 501 (TVOC, PM2.5 two-in-one sensor), thereby providing a good air quality detection environment for the sensor module and effectively improving the detection accuracy of the sensor.
[0062] In addition to the first heat dissipation grille 103, the bottom of the sensor outer frame 1 is also designed with functional holes (reset button hole 105, sensor probe assembly hole or LED light-transmitting hole 106). The reset button and the sensor probe can pass through the functional hole, and can respectively realize the function of manually controlling the reset and detecting the external air quality. In addition, a reset button mark "RESET" can be designed on the edge of the left functional hole to intuitively display the function of the button. In addition, LED light-transmitting holes 106 are reserved on both sides to display the working status of the internal motherboard 5. For example, if the motherboard 5 is lit with a red light and the red light is always on, it means that the motherboard 5 is working normally. If the red light flashes, it means that the motherboard 5 is faulty. If there is no light on, it means that the motherboard 5 is not powered on, which can be observed through the light-transmitting holes. The light-transmitting holes can be designed to be 6 (or other numbers, such as 2, 3, 4, etc., the number is uncertain), and the aperture is ≤5mm, which can effectively reduce the light intensity, play a role in dispersing the light source, and provide users with a good visual experience.
[0063] By providing a back panel buckle 107 on the back side of the outer frame 1, the back panel buckle 107 can be connected with the 86 box standard back panel 8 buckle 107, so that the sensor can be quickly installed and fixed, and the electrical installation requirements during decoration can be met.
[0064] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions under the concept of the present invention belong to the protection scope of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, some improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of the present invention should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
