DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] A high-sealed water level sensor comprises a housing 1, a mounting cover 2, a connector 3, and a sensing element 4. The connector 3 and the sensing element 4 are respectively fixed to the upper and lower sides of the mounting cover 2, and the connector 3 penetrates the mounting cover 2 and is connected to the sensing element 4. Bolts 9 are provided on the upper side of the housing 1, and threaded holes 10 matching the bolts 9 are provided on the lower side of the mounting cover 2. A detection head 5 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the sensing element 4. A fixing plate 12 is provided in the housing 1, and the fixing plate 12 is matched with the inner wall of the housing 1. A through hole is provided at the center of the fixing plate 12, and a fixing structure 6 for fixing the connector 3 is provided on the fixing plate 12.

[0022] The fixing structure 6 includes: a gasket 1 61, a fixing frame 62, a slide groove 1 63, a slide groove 2 64, a gear 65, a slider 66, an annular frame 67, and a slot 68. The fixing frame 62 is fixed on the fixing plate 12, and the fixing frame 62 is matched with the fixing plate 12. A gap is provided between the inner ring side of the fixing frame 62 and the fixing plate 12, and the gasket 1 61 is matched in the gap. A slide groove 1 63 and a plurality of slide grooves 2 64 are provided on the fixing frame 62. The slide groove 1 63 is annularly arranged. A plurality of sliders 66 are slidably arranged on the fixing frame 62 through a plurality of slide grooves 2 64. A plurality of gears 65 are also rotatably arranged on the fixing frame 62. A plurality of sliders 66 are provided with racks that mesh with the gears 65. The annular frame 67 is rotatably connected to the fixing frame 63 through the slide groove 1 63. A plurality of slots 68 are provided on the annular frame 67. Rotating the annular frame 67 can drive the plurality of gears 65 to rotate, and the gears 65 drive the sliders 66 to slide toward the center, thereby fixing the connector 3.

[0023] A plurality of spring rods 11 are disposed on the mounting cover 2 , and the spring rods 11 are matched with the slots 68 . The spring rods 11 can be inserted into the slots 68 to control the rotation of the annular frame 67 .

[0024] The detection head 5 is provided with a gasket 2 7 and a gasket 3 8. The gasket 2 7 is matched with the through hole of the fixed plate 12, and the gasket 3 8 is matched with the fixed frame 62. By arranging the gasket 2 7 and the gasket 3 8, an effective waterproof effect can be achieved. At the same time, the gasket 3 8 is made of elastic rubber material, and the outer diameter of the gasket 3 8 is slightly larger than the inner diameter of the gasket 1 61. The gasket 3 8 is squeezed into the gasket 1 61, which can achieve a high sealing effect.

[0025] The inner wall of the fixing frame 62 is provided with a buffer pad, and the buffer pad can achieve a stable fixed installation effect when the connector 3 is fixed to the fixing mechanism 6 .

[0026] A waterproof gasket matching the housing 1 is provided at the bottom of the threaded hole 10 in the installation cover 2 . By providing the waterproof gasket, the top of the housing 1 and the installation cover 2 can be effectively sealed.

[0027] In the utility model, when the housing 1 and the mounting cover 2 are installed, the connector 3 is placed in the housing 1, and the mounting cover 2 drives the gasket 2 7 and the gasket 3 8 to move downward through the detection head 5, and the gasket 2 7 enters the through hole in the fixing plate 12, and the gasket 3 8 squeezes the gasket 1 61 to fit with it, and at the same time, after the spring rod 11 is inserted into the slot 68, the mounting cover 2 is rotated, and the threaded hole 10 cooperates with the bolt 9, so that the top of the housing 1 and the mounting cover 2 are sealed and fixed, and at the same time, the mounting cover 2 drives the annular frame 67 to rotate in the slide groove 1 63 through the spring rod 11, and the annular frame 67 drives the multiple sliders 66 to slide toward the center in the slide groove 2 64 through the multiple gears 65, so that the multiple sliders 66 can slide toward the center in the slide groove 2 64. A slider 66 is used to fix and squeeze gasket three 8 to prevent gasket three 8 from being separated from the close fit with gasket one 61 due to its elastic effect; when the water level sensor fails and needs to be disassembled and repaired, it is only necessary to rotate the mounting cover 2. According to the reverse movement of the above structure, the mounting cover 2 can be removed, so that the sensor element 4 can be inspected and repaired, and the threaded holes 10 on the shell 1 and the mounting cover 2 cooperate with the bolts 9 to effectively seal the upper end of the water level sensor. At the same time, gasket one 61, gasket two 7, and gasket three 8 are arranged on the lower side to cooperate closely, thereby achieving a multiple waterproof effect, thereby realizing a high sealing effect of the water level sensor and facilitating the inspection and repair of the water level sensor.

[0028] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention according to the technical scheme and the utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
