For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0023] Embodiment 1:
[0024] This embodiment provides a particle sensor that is resistant to oil smoke pollution, specifically, Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, it includes a front flow channel packaging shell 101, a PCBA packaging shell 102, a PCBA 106, a photoelectric detector 107, a light emitting component 108, a fan 109, and a frame 110. The photoelectric detector 107 is installed on the PCBA 106, and the PCBA 106, the light emitting component 108, and the fan 109 are installed on the frame 110. The front flow channel packaging shell 101 and the PCBA packaging shell 102 are used to package the frame 110. The frame 110 is provided with a flow channel rib plate 111. When the front flow channel packaging shell 101 is combined with the frame 110, the flow channel rib plate 111 cooperates with the front flow channel packaging shell 101 to form a gas flow channel. The flow channel rib plate 111 is provided with a through hole. The light emitting component 10 8 will cross the gas flow channel through the through hole, the detection direction of the photodetector 107, the light beam direction of the light emitting assembly 108, and the air flow direction in the inlet flow channel 11 are mutually perpendicular to form a detection area 113, and the gas flow channel includes the inlet flow channel 11, the intermediate flow channel 12, and the exhaust flow channel 13; the detection area 113 is in the inlet flow channel 11, and the fan 109 is on the exhaust flow channel 13; one end of the intermediate flow channel 12 is connected to the inlet flow channel 11, and the other end is connected to the exhaust flow channel 13; the end of the intermediate flow channel 12 connected to the inlet flow channel 11 is higher than the end connected to the exhaust flow channel 13; the frame 110 is provided with an oil collecting tank 114 at the fan 109. The PCBA 106, the light emitting assembly 108, and the photodetector 107 are all commercially available products, and their working principles can be easily understood by those skilled in the art; and this point is not an improvement point of the utility model, and will not be repeated here.
[0025] When the sensor is used, as the fan 109 rotates, the oil smoke starts to be sucked in from the end of the inlet flow channel 11, and then passes through the detection area 113. The light beam of the light emitting component 108 generates scattered light when irradiating the oil smoke, which is received by the photoelectric detector 107 and completed with photoelectric conversion to obtain specific data. Then the oil smoke leaves the inlet flow channel 11, enters the middle flow channel 12, and then enters the exhaust flow channel 13, and then is discharged from the end of the exhaust flow channel 13.
[0026] The oil smoke is effectively sealed and isolated by the arranged gas flow channel, so that the oil smoke has no chance to contact the PCBA106 after entering the sensor until it is discharged, that is, the reliability of the long-term operation of the sensor in the kitchen environment is improved through spatial isolation; at the same time, through the longitudinally arranged intake flow channel 11, the exhaust flow channel 13 and the inclined intermediate flow channel 12, the oil accumulated in the gas flow channel can be naturally discharged under the action of gravity and collected by the oil collecting tank 114, thereby avoiding the problem of sensor failure due to the inability to discharge the accumulated oil.
[0027] Embodiment 2:
[0028] This embodiment is further expanded on the basis of the above embodiment. Figure 2 , Figure 4 As shown, the frame 110 is provided with an air inlet guide port 115, and the PCBA packaging shell 102 is provided with an air inlet reserved port 104.

[0029] By placing the air inlet and the air outlet perpendicular to the inlet flow channel 11 and the exhaust flow channel 13 respectively, the air inlet and the outlet are not overlapped with the oil dripping direction, and the fan 109 is conveniently installed to reduce the volume of the entire sensor.
[0030] The other parts of this embodiment are the same as those of the above embodiment and will not be described in detail.
[0031] Embodiment 3:
[0032] This embodiment is further expanded on the basis of the above embodiment. Figure 3 , Figure 5 As shown, the frame 110 is provided with a cutting part, and the cutting part is located on the inlet air channel 11.

The cutting part is composed of a plurality of cutting columns 112, and the plurality of cutting columns 112 are arrayed and staggered. Preferably, the cutting column 112 is cylindrical.
[0033] After the oil smoke enters the intake air duct 11, the oil smoke particles 116 collide with the cutting column 112 by inertia, so that the oil smoke particles 116 are split into multiple pieces, reducing the diameter of the oil smoke particles 116, thereby reducing the interference degree of oil deposited in the detection area 113 on the detection operation and reducing the frequency of subsequent maintenance.
[0034] The other parts of this embodiment are the same as those of the above embodiment and will not be described in detail.

The frame 110 is respectively connected to the front flow channel packaging shell 101 and the PCBA packaging shell 102 through buckles.
[0037] The diagonally arranged mounting ears 103 can avoid the internal parts position and facilitate the installation of the sensor to the preset point; and the front flow channel packaging shell 101, PCBA packaging shell 102, and frame 110 with snap-on design are for more convenient disassembly and assembly of the sensor.
