[0032] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0033] The embodiment of the present application provides an automobile outdoor temperature sensor, which can solve the problem in the related art that the outdoor temperature sensor may be damaged in a harsh environment.

[0034] See also Figures 1 to 8 , an automobile outdoor temperature sensor, comprising:

[0035] A sensor body 1, wherein a socket 2 is provided on the sensor body 1;

[0036] A base 3, wherein a socket 4 is provided on the base 3, and the socket 4 is used for inserting the socket 2;

[0037] The base 3 is detachably connected to the cover 5. When the cover 5 is installed on the base 3, the cover 5 is closely attached to one end of the socket 2 facing the opening direction of the socket 4;

[0038] A plurality of fixing structures 6, wherein the fixing structures 6 are used to fix the base 3 and the cover 5;

[0039] The cover 5 is connected with an insert block 8;

[0040] The base 3 is provided with a positioning groove 9, and the insert block 8 can be inserted into the positioning groove 9;

[0041] The sensor body 1 is provided with thermal grease and a thermistor inside. The sensor body 1 is fixedly connected with the socket 2. A pin is provided in the socket 2. The thermistor and the pin are welded by high-temperature tin wire. When the socket 2 is installed on the base 3, the pin is inserted into the base 3. At the same time, the socket 4 will limit the socket 2 from shaking on the base 3, thereby limiting the position of the socket 2 on the base 3.

[0042] During specific installation, first insert the socket 2 into the socket 4, so that the socket 2 and the sensor body 1 are inserted into the base 3, the positions of the socket 2 and the sensor body 1 on the base 3 are fixed and the socket 2 and the sensor body 1 can be pulled out from the socket 2, then insert the plug 8 into the positioning groove 9, and fix the plug 8 to the base 3 by bolts or threads. At this time, the sensor body 1 passes through the middle of the cover 5, and the cover 5 is fixedly connected to the base 3, and the socket 2 is fixed and restricted between the cover 5 and the base 3, so that the socket 2 cannot be pulled out from the base 3, thereby achieving the purpose of fixing the sensor body 1 and the socket 2. The device fixes the socket 2 by fixing the cover 5 to the base 3, and the fixation between the cover 5 and the base 3 lies in the connection of the contact surface between the cover 5 and the base 3, such as Figure 2 As shown, when the cover 5 and the base 3 are in contact with each other, the contact surface of the cover 5 and the base 3 will not be exposed to the outside world. At this time, whether the commonly used bolts or threads are used for connection, the bolts or threads will not be exposed to the outside world. Therefore, the present application can avoid the external environment from affecting the fixing effect as much as possible.

[0043] A through hole 7 is provided at the center of the top of the cover 5. When the cover 5 is installed on the base 3, the sensor body 1 passes through the through hole 7.

[0044] When installing the cover 5 , firstly pass the sensor body 1 through the through hole 7 , and then place the cover 5 on the base 3 from top to bottom for installation.

[0045] The fixing structure 6 includes a fixing slot 61 and a fixing block 62;

[0046] The fixing groove 61 is formed on the base 3, the fixing block 62 is connected to the cover 5, and the fixing block 62 can be inserted into the fixing groove 61. When the fixing block 62 is inserted into the fixing groove 61, the base 3 is fixedly connected to the cover 5.

[0047] The fixing structure 6 further includes an extension opening 63 and a closing block 64;

[0048] The extension opening 63 is formed on the base 3 and connected to the fixing groove 61 . The closing block 64 is located at the connection between the extension opening 63 and the fixing groove 61 .

[0049] Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the opening direction of the fixing groove 61 is perpendicular to the direction in which the cover 5 is installed on the base 3 from top to bottom. In the process of installing the cover 5 on the base 3, the fixing block 62 is first placed in the extension opening 63. When the fixing block 62 slides to the bottom of the extension opening 63, the cover 5 is rotated and the closing block 64 is lifted. The fixing block 62 slides from the extension opening 63 to the fixing groove 61, and the closing block 64 falls. The fixing block 62 is fixed in the fixing groove 61, thereby fixing the cover 5 to prevent the cover 5 from being directly detached from the base 3 from the bottom up. Compared with traditional fixing methods such as threads or bolts, the fixing method of the present application is faster and more efficient for staff to operate.

[0050] The fixed structure 6 also includes a control rod 65;

[0051] The control rod 65 is connected to the closing block 64, and the control rod 65 extends outside the base 3;

[0052] There is a slide groove in the base 3 for the closing block 64 to be raised and lowered. The closing block 64 can be extended from the slide groove and can also be retracted into the slide groove. The control rod 65 located outside the base 3 allows the staff to conveniently control the lifting and lowering of the closing block 64.

[0053] The fixing structure 6 further includes a spring 66;

[0054] The two ends of the spring 66 are respectively connected to the closing block 64 and the base 3;

[0055] The spring 66 is installed in the slide groove, and one end of the spring 66 is connected to one end of the slide groove. In the present application, the spring 66 will continuously apply a downward force to the closing block 64, so that when there is no control by the staff, the closing block 64 is in a falling state, separating the fixing groove 61 from the extension opening 63, and at the same time, it can effectively prevent the fixing block 62 from being separated from the fixing groove 61 due to the vibration of the vehicle body;

[0056] When the fixing block 62 needs to be taken out from the fixing slot 61, the staff needs to first control the control rod 65 to lift the closing block 64. At this time, the spring 66 is compressed, and then the fixing block 62 is slid from the fixing slot 61 into the extension opening 63. When the staff is no longer controlling the control rod 65, the spring 66 extends and pushes the closing block 64 out of the slide slot.

[0057] Here’s how this application works:

[0058] When installing the sensor body 1 and the socket 2, the socket 2 is first inserted into the socket 4, and then the sensor body 1 passes through the cover 5, the fixing block 62 on the cover 5 enters the extension opening 63, the control rod 65 is controlled to lift the closing block 64, and then the cover 5 is rotated so that the fixing block 62 enters the fixing groove 61, thereby fixing the position of the fixing block 62, and then fixing the sensor body 1 and the socket 2;

[0059] If the sensor body 1 or the socket 2 is damaged and the sensor body 1 and the socket 2 need to be disassembled, it is only necessary to first lift the closing block 64 through the control rod 65, then slide the fixing block 62 from the fixing groove 61 to the extension opening 63, and then separate the cover 5 from the base 3, and finally pull the socket 2 out of the socket 4.
