[0026] The following is a detailed description of a high insulation and sealing NTC temperature sensor and its use method provided by the utility model in combination with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. At the same time, it is explained here that in order to make the embodiments more detailed, the following embodiments are the best and preferred embodiments, and those skilled in the art may also adopt other alternatives to implement some known technologies; and the drawings are only for more specific description of the embodiments, and are not intended to specifically limit the utility model.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, an embodiment of the utility model provides an NTC temperature sensor with high insulation and sealing performance, including a protective shell 1, a cover plate 2 is arranged at the bottom of the protective shell 1, a sensor body 5 is fixedly installed on the top of the cover plate 2, a welding foot 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sensor body 5, a fixing component, the fixing component is used to assemble the cover plate 2 and the protective shell 1, the fixing component and the assembled cover plate 2 and the protective shell 1 are in conflict, an annular protrusion is arranged on the top of the cover plate 2, an annular groove is arranged at the bottom of the protective shell 1, the diameter value of the annular protrusion is smaller than the diameter value of the annular groove, the fixing component includes a sealing ring 4, the sealing ring 4 is divided into a No. 1 sealing part 401 and a No. 2 sealing part 404, the No. 1 sealing part 40 1 is located in the gap between the annular protrusion and the annular groove, a deformation cavity 402 is provided inside both sides of the No. 1 sealing part 401, and a limiting protrusion 403 integrally formed with the deformation cavity 402 is provided on both sides of the No. 1 sealing part 401, and a limiting groove matched with the limiting protrusion 403 is provided on the opposite surface of the annular protrusion and the annular groove, and an arc-shaped protrusion 406 is provided on the outside of the cover plate 2, and the No. 2 sealing part 404 is located in the gap between the annular protrusion and the annular groove, and a limiting part 405 is provided at the outer end of the No. 2 sealing part 404, and the limiting part 405 is wrapped around the outside of the arc-shaped protrusion 406, and the two sides of the No. 1 sealing part 401 are respectively fitted with the protective shell 1 and the cover plate 2, and the No. 2 sealing part 40 The top and bottom of 4 are respectively fitted with the protective shell 1 and the cover plate 2. During use, the sealing ring 4 is placed at the bottom of the protective shell 1 to ensure that the No. 1 sealing part 401 is located in the annular groove, and the cover plate 2 is aligned with the protective shell 1 so that the annular protrusion matches the annular groove. In this process, since the annular protrusion is inserted into the annular groove, the deformation cavity 402 on both sides of the No. 1 sealing part 401 will be squeezed, so that the limiting protrusion 403 will first be recessed into the interior of the deformation cavity 402. After the pressure disappears, it will closely cooperate with the limiting card groove under the action of its own elasticity to achieve preliminary fixation. At the same time, the limiting part 405 of the No. 2 sealing part 404 will be wrapped around the outside of the arc-shaped protrusion 406, and then The sealing performance and stability are increased in one step, and the sealing ring 4 can be easily removed, which not only simplifies the assembly steps of the sensor, but also improves the sealing effect of the sensor. The No. 1 sealing part 401 and the No. 2 sealing part 404 form a multi-layer sealing structure between the cover plate 2 and the protective shell 1. When the cover plate 2 and the protective shell 1 are tightly matched, the No. 1 sealing part 401 realizes the first layer of sealing through the cooperation of the deformation cavity 402 and the limiting protrusion 403 with the limiting card groove, and the limiting part 405 and the outward turning part 407 of the No. 2 sealing part 404 form the second layer of sealing to ensure that the external environment cannot invade the interior of the sensor. This multi-layer sealing structure not only improves the sealing performance, but also enhances the overall stability and durability.

[0028] An outward-turning portion 407 is provided on the outside of the limiting portion 405, and the outward-turning portion 407 is a "C"-shaped structure. The limiting portion 405 can be easily separated from the arc-shaped protrusion 406 through the "C"-shaped structure of the outward-turning portion 407. During use, the outward-turning portion 407 can be pushed upward, and the "C"-shaped structure can make the outward-turning portion 407 more easily subjected to force. When the outward-turning portion 407 is forced to flip upward, it will drive the limiting portion 405 to flip upward together, thereby enabling the limiting portion 405 to be separated from the arc-shaped protrusion 406, thereby facilitating the disassembly of the protective shell 1 and the cover plate 2.

[0029] like Figure 3 As shown, the sealing ring 4 is integrally injection molded, and can be rapidly injected through a fixed mold during the actual manufacturing process, which can not only greatly reduce the production cost, but also the integrated structure can improve the overall sealing of the sealing assembly. Compared with the multi-layer sealing proposed in the comparative document, it can not only reduce the production cost, but also ensure the overall sealing performance of the temperature sensor, and is worthy of promotion and use.

[0030] The working principle provided by the utility model is to prepare all components such as the protective shell 1, the cover plate 2, the sensor body 5, the welding foot 3 and the sealing ring 4, check whether each component is intact, ensure that the size of the annular protrusion matches the annular groove, place the sealing ring 4 at the bottom of the protective shell 1, ensure that the No. 1 sealing part 401 is located in the annular groove, fix the sensor body 5 on the top of the cover plate 2, align the cover plate 2 with the protective shell 1, ensure that the annular protrusion and the annular groove can be fully matched, in this process, the annular protrusion is inserted into the annular groove, and the deformation cavity 402 on both sides of the No. 1 sealing part 401 will be squeezed, so that the limiting protrusion 403 First, it is recessed into the deformation cavity 402. After the pressure disappears, the limiting protrusion 403 of the No. 1 sealing part 401 is tightly matched with the limiting slot under the action of its own elasticity to achieve preliminary fixation. The limiting part 405 of the No. 2 sealing part 404 is wrapped on the arc-shaped protrusion 406 on the outside of the cover plate 2, so as to further increase the sealing and stability. The outward-turning part 407 of the No. 2 sealing part 404 is pushed upward, and the "C"-shaped structure makes it easy for the outward-turning part 407 to turn up under force. When the outward-turning part 407 turns up, it drives the limiting part 405 to turn up together, so that the limiting part 405 is separated from the arc-shaped protrusion 406. After separation, the protective shell 1 and the cover plate 2 can be easily disassembled.

[0031] The sensor body 5 in the present utility model is disclosed in the prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0032] The present invention covers any substitution, modification, equivalent method and scheme made on the essence and scope of the present invention. In order to make the public have a thorough understanding of the present invention, specific details are described in detail in the following preferred embodiments of the present invention, and those skilled in the art can fully understand the present invention without the description of these details. In addition, in order to avoid unnecessary confusion about the essence of the present invention, well-known methods, processes, procedures, components and circuits are not described in detail.

[0033] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
