[0013] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the installation of the sensor cover and housing. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0014] The utility model is further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0015] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a plurality of sensor cover petal structures 2 are evenly connected to the outer circumference of the bottom of the sensor cover 1; the sensor cover petal structure 2 is a cross-shaped arc panel structure, a radial fixing boss 2-1 is provided on the outer side of the upper part of the sensor cover petal structure 2, and arc grooves 2-2 are provided on the left and right sides of the radial fixing boss 2-1; axial fixing bosses 2-3 are provided on the left and right ends of the sensor cover petal structure 2; a cleaning glue layer 1-1 is provided on the bottom of the sensor cover 1 between two adjacent sensor cover petal structures 2.

[0016] The sensor cover petal structure 2 is connected to the bottom of the sensor cover 1 by a snap connection or a plug connection.

[0017] The sensor cover has at least three petal structures 2 .

[0018] The material used for the petal structure 2 of the sensor cover does not undergo plastic deformation during the assembly process.

[0019] The sensor cover 1 is clamped at the upper inner side of the long shell 3 through the sensor cover petal structure 2, and the gap between the bottom end surface of the sensor cover 1 and the top end surface of the long shell 3 is 0.6 mm.

[0020] like Figure 4 As shown, the sensor cover and housing are installed as follows:

[0021] The cleaning glue layer 1-1 at the bottom of the sensor cover 1 is plasma cleaned;

[0022] Use a professional glue gun to evenly apply glue on the clean glue layer 1-1;

[0023] The sensor cover 1 is pressed into the long housing 3;

[0024] The sensor cover 1 is aligned with the long housing 3, and the press applies axial pressure to the sensor cover 1;

[0025] The positioning hole of the sensor cover 1 and the positioning groove of the long housing 3 are assembled in a single position under the action of the positioning pin of the press;

[0026] After the sensor cover 1 is pressed into the long housing 3, the sensor cover 1 is fixed axially and radially by the sensor cover petal structure 2;

[0027] Sensor cover 1 is sealed;

[0028] There is a 0.6 mm gap between the sensor cover 1 and the long shell 3, so that the sealant is full and does not flow. After the sealant is dried, the sealing effect is finally achieved.

[0029] Through the above design, the petal structure of the sensor cover solves the problem of general sealing effect of a single O-ring and improves the sealing performance.

[0030] A number of cross-shaped sensor cover petal structures are connected to the bottom of the sensor cover. Under the action of axial pressure, the sensor cover continues to move downward, and the sensor cover petal structures contact the shell. When the axial force of the sensor cover is removed, the sensor cover petal structures rebound and contact the shell. Finally, the sensor cover is installed through a card-type connection.
