DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods. It should be noted that, under the premise of no conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form a new embodiment.

[0022] like Figure 1-3As shown, a gas mass flowmeter includes a flange pipe 1, a base 3, a shell 16, a packaging sleeve 12, a sensor electrical connection component 17 and a flow sensor 6; the flange pipe 1 is provided with a tube cavity 23; the base 3 is arranged on the flange pipe 1; the shell 16 is connected to the base 3 in a detachable manner, and the shell 16 and the base 3 form a built-in cavity 24; the packaging sleeve 12 is fixed on the shell 16; the sensor electrical connection component 17 is arranged on the packaging sleeve 12 and penetrates into the built-in cavity 24; the flow sensor 6 is located in the built-in cavity 2 4, and is connected to the sensor electrical connection component 17 in a detachable manner; a flow detection inlet 4 and a flow detection outlet 5 are provided on the base 3; the flow detection inlet 4 is connected to the tube cavity 23 of the flange pipe fitting 1, and the flow detection inlet 4 is used to guide the gas to the flow sensor 6; one end of the flow detection outlet 5 is connected to the tube cavity 23 of the flange pipe fitting 1, and the other end faces the flow sensor 6; a pressure balance hole 28 is provided on the base 3, one end of the pressure balance hole 28 is connected to the tube cavity 23, and the other end is connected to the built-in cavity 24.

[0023] When in use, the gas flowing into the flange pipe fitting 1 can flow to the flow sensor 6 through the flow detection inlet 4, and after the flow sensor 6 detects the flow, it flows back from the flow detection outlet 5 to the tube cavity 23 of the flange pipe fitting 1. Moreover, by providing a pressure balance hole 28 on the base 3, the gas in the tube cavity 23 can gradually enter the built-in cavity 24 through the pressure balance hole 28, so that the pressure in the built-in cavity 24 gradually increases to a state of pressure balance with the tube cavity 23, thereby avoiding damage to the flow sensor 6 due to a sudden increase in the pressure in the built-in cavity 24, and solving the pressure bearing problem of the flow sensor 6 without packaging the flow sensor 6. When the flow sensor 6 fails, the shell 16 can be disassembled from the base 3, and then the flow sensor 6 and the sensor electrical connection component 17 can be disassembled, and the flow sensor 6 can be removed to complete the disassembly of the flow sensor 6. Therefore, there is no need to perform sol treatment, which can reduce the difficulty of disassembly of the flow sensor 6, making the disassembly of the flow sensor 6 more convenient and quick, and can reduce the disassembly time of the flow sensor 6, so as to improve the disassembly efficiency of the flow sensor 6 and facilitate the maintenance and replacement of the flow sensor 6.

[0024] The sensor electrical connection component 17 includes a sensor connection line 8 and a sensor connection terminal 7; the sensor connection terminal 7 is connected to the sensor connection line 8; and the flow sensor 6 is detachably connected to the sensor connection terminal 7. By adopting the above arrangement, the connection between the flow sensor 6 and the sensor electrical connection component 17 can be facilitated.

[0025] The packaging sleeve 12 is provided with a packaging cavity 25, and the sensor connecting wire 8 includes a first line segment 21 and a second line segment 22 arranged in sequence; the first line segment 21 is packaged in the packaging cavity 25; the second line segment 22 is located outside the packaging cavity 25 and penetrates the built-in cavity 24; the sensor connecting terminal 7 is connected to the end of the second line segment 22 away from the first line segment 21. By packaging the first line segment 21 of the sensor connecting wire 8 in the packaging cavity 25, the airflow is prevented from leaking from the inside of the sensor connecting wire 8, and the pressure bearing capacity can be improved. Since the flow sensor 6 is not packaged, only the sensor connecting wire 8 needs to be pressure tested, and even if there is leakage after packaging, it will not cause damage to the flow sensor 6. Specifically, the first line segment 21 can be packaged in the packaging cavity 25 by an epoxy resin layer 9 or the like.

[0026] The housing 16 includes a main housing 10 and an external seat 15; the main housing 10 is detachably connected to the base 3; the external seat 15 is disposed on an end of the main housing 10 away from the base 3. By adopting the above structure, the housing 16 can be easily manufactured.

By adopting the above arrangement, the installation of the packaging sleeve 12 can be facilitated.

[0029] The installation groove 26 is provided with a gasket 11 and a fixed sleeve 13 in sequence along the direction close to the base 3; the end seat 18 is limited between the fixed sleeve 13 and the gasket 11; the gasket 11 is provided with a through hole, and the through tube body 19 is also through the through hole. The fixed sleeve 13 is threadedly connected in the installation groove 26. During the installation process, the gasket 11 can be placed in the installation groove 26 first, and then the end seat 18 of the packaging sleeve 12 can be placed on the gasket 11. At this time, the through tube body 19 is through the through hole, the connecting groove 27 and the built-in cavity 24 of the gasket 11, and then the fixed sleeve 13 is threadedly connected in the installation groove 26, and the fixed sleeve 13 is used to press against the end seat 18, so that the end seat 18 is limited between the fixed sleeve 13 and the gasket 11, and the above structure can facilitate the installation of the packaging sleeve 12.
