[0002] Gas sensors include a series of sensors of different types and principles such as CH4, H2, O2, H2S, CO, SO2, CO2, VOC, etc. Since the sensors can sensitively detect gases, and then display the gas concentration in the environment, corresponding danger warnings and remedial measures are carried out. Especially, electrochemical gas sensors have the advantages of small volume, high sensitivity, fast response time, and preferential price, and are widely used in the detection fields of toxic and harmful gases such as petrochemical industry, mine, and medical treatment. However, current electrochemical gas sensors are mainly divided into solid electrolyte sensors, liquid or semi-liquid electrolytes. Solid electrolyte sensors are severely affected by temperature and humidity and have a high price, so their application fields are limited. Currently, the most widely used are liquid and semi-liquid electrolyte sensors. Such sensors are extremely prone to liquid leakage during storage, transportation, and use, causing serious losses to production and use, etc., and the acid-base electrolyte inside the sensors will also pose a threat to personnel and the environment. In addition, due to the waterproof and breathable membrane at the air inlet of the sensor, if there are problems with non-standard sealing, it will lead to liquid leakage of the sensor structure.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to strictly design the sensor structure to improve the liquid leakage problem of the sensor, thereby reducing the liquid leakage risk of the liquid electrochemical sensor. Summary of the Utility Model

[0009] Preferably, a welding groove is further provided at the inner edge position of the lower cover, and the welding groove is used to cooperate with the welding line provided on the upper cover to realize the sealing of the sensor.

[0010] Preferably, a concave annular groove is further provided at a position adjacent to the welding groove, and the concave annular groove is used to prevent glue overflow when the welding groove and the welding line are welded and fused.

[0029] Before detailing the embodiments according to the present invention, it should be noted that, hereinafter, the terms "comprising", "including" or any other variant are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article or device comprising a series of elements not only includes those elements but also includes other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article or device.

[0030] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the leak-proof electrochemical gas sensor of the present utility model, wherein the sensor comprises:

[0031] A lower cover 1, an upper cover 2 disposed in cooperation with the top of the lower cover 1, a gas hole 203 is provided at the central position of the upper cover 2; and several pins 3 located at the bottom of the sensor.

[0032] As a preferred implementation manner of the present utility model, a boss 101 is provided around the outermost position of the highest point of the lower cover 1, and the boss 101 is used to prevent the internal components or liquid of the sensor from overflowing.

[0033] As a preferred implementation manner of the present utility model, a welding groove 102 is further provided at the inner edge position of the lower cover 1, and the welding groove 102 is used to cooperate with the welding wire 202 provided on the upper cover 2 to achieve the sealing of the sensor.

[0034] As a preferred implementation manner of the present utility model, a concave ring groove 103 is further provided at a position adjacent to the welding groove 102, and the concave ring groove 103 is used to prevent the welding groove 102 and the welding wire 202 from overflowing glue during welding and fusing.

[0035] As a preferred implementation manner of the present utility model, the welding groove 102 and the welding wire 202 adopt one or more welding methods of ultrasonic welding, hot press welding, and glue injection welding.

[0036] As a preferred implementation manner of the present utility model, a concave platform 201 is provided around the periphery of the upper cover 2, and the concave platform 201 is matched with the boss 101 so that the lower cover 1 and the upper cover 2 are closely attached when ultrasonic welding is adopted.

[0037] As a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, the lower cover 1 and the upper cover 2 are both processed and prepared by using one or more of the materials of ABS, PP, PC, and PA.

[0038] In practical applications, such as Figure 1 shown, the leak-proof electrochemical gas sensor includes a lower cover 1, pins 3, and air holes 203; splitting the electrochemical gas sensor into a lower cover 1 and an upper cover 2 facilitates the assembly of the internal components of the sensor. The lower cover 1 and the upper cover 2 are both processed and prepared by using one or more of ABS, PP, PC, and PA. As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the lower cover 1 is provided with a boss 101, a welding groove 102, and a concave ring groove 103; the upper cover 2 is provided with a concave platform 201, a welding line 202, and air holes 203. The boss 101 is the highest point of the lower cover 1, which can prevent the internal components or liquid of the sensor from overflowing. The welding groove 102 and the welding line 202 are designed in a matching manner. During welding, the welding line 202 is inserted into the welding groove 102, and one or more of ultrasonic welding, hot pressing welding, and glue injection welding are used in combination. A large amount of heat is generated by friction and high-frequency vibration between the welding groove 102 and the welding line 202 to melt the two into a whole, so that the sensor achieves a sealing effect. The concave platform 201 and the boss 101 are designed in a matching manner, and they can be closely attached during ultrasonic welding. The design of the concave ring groove 103 is to prevent the phenomenon of glue overflow when the welding groove 102 and the welding line 202 are melted, which can prevent the melted glue from overflowing into the sensor internal, and protect the internal components of the sensor from being affected and damaged. The air holes 203 facilitate the entry and exit of gas, which is convenient for gas detection and testing of the sensor. The boss 101 is higher than the welding groove 102 and the concave ring groove 103, which can further prevent the liquid from overflowing to the surface or pins of the sensor, causing corrosion problems.

[0039] This structural design can effectively solve the leak problem of the electrochemical gas sensor, and at the same time enhance the sealing performance of the sensor, improve the test accuracy and the service life of the electrochemical sensor. At the same time, the pins can be used for electrochemical gas sensors with 2 or more pins, or other solid sensors or other products with higher sealing requirements.

[0040] Adopting the leak-proof electrochemical gas sensor of the present utility model can effectively solve the leak problem of the electrochemical gas sensor, and at the same time enhance the sealing performance of the sensor, improve the test accuracy and the service life of the electrochemical sensor. While greatly reducing the leak risk, it can also make the test data more accurate.

[0041] In this specification, the present utility model has been described with reference to its specific embodiments. However, it is obvious that various modifications and transformations can still be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model. Therefore, the specification and the drawings should be regarded as illustrative rather than restrictive.
