[0026] In order to more clearly illustrate the embodiments of the present invention or the technical solutions in the prior art, the specific implementation methods of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the drawings described below are only some embodiments of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, other drawings and other implementation methods can be obtained based on these drawings without inventive work.

[0027] To simplify the drawings, only the parts relevant to the utility model are schematically shown in each figure; they do not represent the actual structure of the product. Furthermore, to simplify the drawings and facilitate understanding, in some figures, only one of the components with the same structure or function is schematically shown or labeled. In this document, "one" not only means "only one" but also "more than one," and "several" includes "two" and "more than two."

[0028] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified or limited, the terms "mounted," "connected," and "connected" should be understood broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed, detachable, or integral connections; mechanical or electrical connections; direct or indirect connections through an intermediary; and internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of these terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0029] In addition, in the description of the present application, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used to distinguish the description and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0030] Example, refer to Figures 1-2 , which is an embodiment of the present utility model, proposes a sensor sealing structure, including a connecting nut 1 and a sealing ring 4. The connecting nut 1 is arranged on the housing 2 of the fuel filter, and the sensor 3 is threadedly connected to the connecting nut 1; the sealing ring 4 is arranged between the sensor 3 and the connecting nut 1, and the sealing ring 4 is located between the inner wall of the connecting nut 1 and the outer wall of the sensor 3.

[0031] Furthermore, an annular groove 5 is provided on the inner wall of the outer end of the connecting nut 1, and a sealing ring 4 is provided between the annular groove 5 and the sensor 3. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the annular groove 5 can limit the sealing ring 4, preventing the sealing ring 4 from deviating toward the inside of the housing 2 under the action of external force, thereby improving the sealing effect.

[0032] Furthermore, the annular groove 5 includes a constant diameter groove 5-1 and a variable diameter groove 5-2. The width of the constant diameter groove 5-1 along the radial direction of the connecting nut 1 is d, and the cross-sectional diameter of the sealing ring 4 is D, which is smaller than D. The variable diameter groove 5-2 is located outside the constant diameter groove 5-1, and the diameter of the variable diameter groove 5-2 gradually increases from one end close to the constant diameter groove 5-1 to the other end. Figure 3 As shown, the step at the inner end of the equal-diameter groove 5-1 can limit the sealing ring 4 to prevent the sealing ring 4 from deviating toward the inside of the shell 2 under the action of external force, and the variable-diameter groove 5-2 allows the sealing ring 4 to have a sufficiently large deformation space.

[0033] Furthermore, the groove wall of the variable diameter groove 5-2 is an arc-shaped surface, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the arc-shaped surface can increase the contact area between the sealing ring 4 and the connecting nut 1, thereby improving the sealing effect.

[0034] Furthermore, the ratio of d to D is 0.2-0.3, that is, the ratio of d to D can be 0.2:1, or 0.3:1, or 0.27:1, so that the equal-diameter groove 5-1 can effectively limit the sealing ring 4 along the axial direction of the connecting nut 1, and the sealing ring 4 can have a sufficiently wide part exposed outside the annular groove 5, so as to have a sufficiently large deformation capacity.

[0035] Furthermore, an annular positioning slot 6 is provided on the outer wall of the connecting nut 1, and the housing 2 is inserted into the positioning slot 6. For example... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the housing 2 is plugged into the positioning slot 6 on the outer wall of the connecting nut 1, which can limit the connecting nut 1 and prevent the connecting nut 1 from shifting axially under the action of external force, making the connection more firm and reliable and the sealing effect better.

[0036] Furthermore, the depth of the positioning slot 6 is h1, the wall thickness of the connecting nut 1 is h2, and the ratio of h1 to h2 is 0.6-0.7. Figure 3 As shown, the ratio of h1 to h2 can be 0.6:1, or 0.7:1, or 0.66:1, which requires that the positioning slot 6 has a sufficiently large depth so that a sufficiently long portion of the housing 2 can be inserted into the positioning slot 6 to effectively limit the connecting nut 1. At the same time, it is also necessary to avoid the positioning slot 6 being too deep to affect the strength of the connecting nut 1.

[0037] Furthermore, it also includes a sealing ring 7, and a sealing groove 8 is provided on the connecting nut 1. The sealing groove 8 communicates with the positioning slot 6 and is located inside the positioning slot 6. The sealing ring 7 is disposed at the sealing groove 8. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the sealing ring 7 is located between the connecting nut 1 and the housing 2 and on the inner side of the housing 2 , which can improve the sealing effect between the connecting nut 1 and the housing 2 .

[0038] Furthermore, the depth of the positioning slot 6 along the axial direction of the connecting nut 1 gradually increases from the outside to the inside. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the depth of the positioning slot 6 gradually increases, which can reduce the bending requirement on the outer end of the connecting nut 1 while ensuring reliable sealing between the connecting nut 1 and the housing 2.

[0039] Furthermore, the sensor 3 includes a sensor body 3-1 and a connecting post 3-2. The sensor body 3-1 is arranged outside the housing 2. The connecting post 3-2 is provided with an external thread 3-3. The connecting post 3-2 is threadedly connected to the connecting nut 1 via the external thread 3-3. The outer end surface of the connecting nut 1 contacts the sensor body 3-1. The sealing ring 4 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the connecting post 3-2 and is located between the external thread 3-3 and the sensor body 3-1. Figure 2 As shown, the sealing ring 4 is located in the cavity between the sensor body 3-1, the connecting column 3-2, the external thread 3-3 and the connecting nut 1. The connecting column 3-2 can position the sealing ring 4 to prevent the sealing ring 4 from shifting radially. The connecting column 3-2 and the connecting nut 1 can cooperate to limit the sealing ring 4 radially. The sensor body 3-1 and the external thread 3-3 can cooperate to limit the sealing ring 4 axially, so that the sealing ring 4 can better perform the sealing function.

[0040] In this embodiment, the sealing ring 4 is mounted on the outer periphery of the connecting column 3-2 of the sensor 3, located in the annular groove 5 of the connecting nut 1, and located between the sensor body 3-1 and the external thread 3-3. The sensor 3 is threadedly connected to the connecting nut 1 through the external thread 3-3. When the internal pressure of the fuel filter is positive, the sealing ring 4 will be subjected to outward pushing pressure. At this time, the connecting nut 1 can limit the sealing ring 4, preventing the sealing ring 4 from separating from the connecting nut 1 and the sensor 3, thereby achieving a better sealing effect.

[0041] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present invention may be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, and all of these should be included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
