Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of pressure sensors, in particular to a pressure sensor without FPC line connection. Background Art
[0002] In order to adapt to the development of the refrigeration industry, many refrigeration companies have adopted frequency conversion technology. In order to solve the problem of frequency conversion technology, an electronic signal pressure protection controller is needed. This pressure sensor converts the mechanical signal of pressure into an electronic signal such as voltage or current. The electronic signal is transmitted to the electronic equipment, and then the pressure value is displayed on the computer. Most of the pressure sensors currently used use FPC lines to realize signal connection. In actual processing, the FPC lines need to be welded to the thick film resistors and connectors respectively to realize the connection between the thick film resistors and the connectors.
[0003] However, the welding process itself will complicate the assembly process and affect the overall assembly progress of the pressure sensor. The firmness of the welding process directly affects the service life of the FPC line. Once a cold weld or loose welding occurs during the welding process, the FPC line as the signal connection party cannot achieve effective signal transmission function, thus affecting the service life of the pressure sensor. On the other hand, the FPC line will also age during use due to the high temperature caused by the use of some high-temperature working environments. The aging of the FPC line will also affect the overall service life of the pressure sensor. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical content of the utility model is to provide a pressure sensor without FPC line connection.
[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the utility model provides a pressure sensor without FPC line connection, including: threaded joints and injection molded joints installed on the upper and lower sides of the sensor housing for convenient connection with other equipment, an installation groove is opened on the inner wall of one side of the sensor housing close to the threaded joint, a connecting mechanism is installed inside the installation groove, a second sealing ring with a certain buffering effect is sleeved on the connecting mechanism, a first sealing ring is placed in the installation groove near the threaded joint, a connector is arranged below the connecting mechanism, and a sensor module is connected above the connector, and the connecting mechanism and the connector are electrically connected through the sensor module.
[0006] As a further solution of the present invention, the outer side of the threaded joint is evenly covered with threads, and the inner cavity of the threaded joint is communicated with the installation groove.
[0007] As a further solution of the present invention, a first sealing ring is placed at the position where the inner cavity of the threaded joint is connected to the mounting groove, and a circular groove matching the first sealing ring is opened on the mounting groove. The first sealing ring and the connecting mechanism cooperate to seal the mounting groove to ensure the air tightness of the device.
[0008] As a further solution of the present invention, the connecting mechanism includes a ceramic base and a ceramic resistor, and the ceramic base is a circular ring-shaped convex structure.
[0009] As a further solution of the present invention, a groove matching with the second sealing ring is formed on the outer side of the ceramic base.
[0010] As a further solution of the present invention, the ceramic resistor is a square structure, and a groove matching the ceramic resistor is provided on the top of the ceramic base.
[0011] As a further solution of the present invention, the sensor module is an octagonal structure and is in contact with the bottom of the ceramic resistor. The bottom of the ceramic base is provided with a groove that matches the sensor module, and the circuit board of the sensor module is composed of a ceramic sheet, so that the sensor module has better high temperature resistance.
[0012] As a further solution of the present invention, the connector is a T-shaped structure, a groove matching with the sensor module is provided on the top of the connector, and the sensor module is electrically connected on the top of the connector.
[0013] In summary, the utility model includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0014] First, the utility model records a pressure sensor without FPC line connection. It records that by setting a connection mechanism in the installation groove, when displacement or vibration occurs, the ceramic base will limit the ceramic resistor and the sensor module, and has more than ten times the ability to resist destructive overload, and a first sealing ring and a second sealing ring are set on the connection mechanism. The sealing ring can protect the sensor from direct influence of the external environment, especially to prevent moisture, dust and other substances that may cause damage from entering the sensor. This is crucial to ensure the long-term stability of the sensor and reduce maintenance costs. The sensor may be subject to unexpected impact or vibration, and the sealing ring can play a certain buffering role, thereby improving the durability and reliability of the sensor.
[0015] Second, the utility model records a pressure sensor without FPC line connection, which records that by using ceramic sheets as the circuit board base of the sensor module, the ceramic material has better high temperature resistance, better insulation performance and more solid welding performance with electronic components. The ceramic material can maintain stable physical and chemical properties in a high temperature environment, and will not deform or degrade at high temperatures like some other materials, so that the sensor can work normally in a high temperature environment, and the measurement accuracy will not be affected by temperature changes while having aging resistance. At the same time, the thermal expansion coefficient of the ceramic material is relatively low, which means that when the temperature changes, the size changes little, which helps to maintain the accuracy and long-term stability of the sensor. The ceramic material has good electrical insulation, which is very important for electrical components in the sensor, especially in a high temperature environment. Good electrical insulation can prevent unnecessary electrical failures. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The ceramic base 61 is a circular convex structure, and a groove matching the second sealing ring 7 is provided on the outer side of the ceramic base 61. The ceramic resistor 62 is a square structure, and a groove matching the ceramic resistor 62 is provided on the top of the ceramic base 61. The first sealing ring 5 is in contact between the mounting groove 4 and the ceramic resistor 62 to fix and buffer the ceramic resistor 62. , to prevent the ceramic resistor 62 from being damaged and worn due to vibration. At the same time, the groove on the ceramic base 61 has a fixing effect on the second sealing ring 7. The second sealing ring 7 is sleeved on the ceramic base 61 and contacts the mounting groove 4 to achieve a sealing effect. When in use, the threaded connector 2 is threadedly connected to the device to be tested, and the signal is transmitted downward through the connecting mechanism 6. The pressure acts on the connecting mechanism 6 to produce a slight deformation. The ceramic resistor 62 generates a voltage signal proportional to the pressure through the Wheatstone bridge. Due to the slight deformation of the connecting mechanism 6, it will cause deformation, and the first sealing ring 5 and the second sealing ring 7 on the connecting mechanism 6 will buffer the ceramic resistor 62 and ensure the airtightness of the mounting groove 4.
