Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of proximity switches, in particular to an oil-proof proximity switch. Background Art

[0002] A proximity switch is a position switch that can be operated without direct mechanical contact with moving parts. When an object approaches the sensing surface of the switch and reaches the effective operating distance, the switch can be operated without mechanical contact or applying any pressure.

[0003] Proximity switches are suitable for various usage scenarios. Traditional proximity switches are prone to electrical short circuits, signal interference, component corrosion and other problems after contact with oily substances. In many industrial and production scenarios, the presence of oil is common and inevitable, such as cutting oil in mechanical processing, lubricating oil in automobile manufacturing, edible oil in the food industry, etc. These oily substances may penetrate into the proximity switch, affecting its performance and accuracy, and even causing failures.
