[0051] Embodiments of the present utility model will be described in detail below. The embodiments described with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary.

[0052] Below, reference is made to Figures 1-10 describe the sensor 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model.

[0053] As Figure 1 shown, the sensor 100 according to the first aspect embodiment of the present utility model is used to measure the pressure of a medium, and includes: a housing 10 and a base 20. The base 20 is disposed inside the housing 10. The base 20 is provided with a limiting structure 21. The limiting structure 21 is supported between the base 20 and the housing 10, so that a medium channel can be formed between the base 20 and the housing 10.

[0054] By providing the limiting structure 21 on the base 20 of the sensor 100, and the limiting structure 21 is located between the base and the housing 10, a channel for the medium to flow through is formed between the base 20 and the housing 10, so that the medium can flow in quickly for pressure inlet. The limiting structure 21 abuts against the inner wall of the housing 10, and the limiting structure 21 is in abutting cooperation with the inner wall of the housing 10, so that no relative rotation occurs between the base 20 and the outer shell, thereby ensuring the stability of the electrical connection of the base 20 and also ensuring the accuracy of the measurement performance of the sensor 100.

[0055] Thus, in the sensor 100, the limiting structure 21 forms a channel for the medium to flow through between the base 20 and the housing 10, so that the medium can flow in quickly for pressure inlet without the need to independently provide a pressure inlet. At the same time, the limiting structure 21 can also prevent relative rotation between the base 20 and the outer shell, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the measurement performance of the sensor 100 and also ensuring the stability of the electrical connection performance of the base 20.

[0056] It should be noted that the sensor 100 can be a pressure sensor or a temperature and pressure sensor.

[0057] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, as Figure 7 shown, the limiting structure 21 includes a plurality of limiting ribs. The plurality of limiting ribs are provided on the outer wall of the base 20, and the plurality of limiting ribs are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the base 20. The plurality of limiting structures 21 abut against the inner wall of the housing 10.

[0058] Among them, a medium channel is formed between multiple limiting ribs, which can facilitate the inflow of the medium, thereby facilitating the measurement of the medium pressure. The multiple limiting ribs are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the base 20, so that the multiple limiting ribs on the base 20 can limit the inner wall of the housing 10 in multiple directions, thereby preventing the base 20 from rotating relative to the housing 10.

[0059] According to a specific embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 2 and Figure 7 shown, the side surface of the limiting rib that abuts against the inner wall of the housing 10 is configured as an arc surface adapted to the shape of the inner wall of the housing 10.

[0060] Specifically, since the inner wall of the housing 10 is arc-shaped, the surface of the limiting rib in contact with the inner wall of the housing 10 is also correspondingly set as an arc surface. In this way, the limiting rib can be fitted to the inner wall of the housing 10, so that the limiting rib and the inner wall of the housing 10 can be more closely matched.

[0061] According to some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 7 and Figure 10 shown, one of the positioning rib 30 and the positioning groove 31 is provided on the outer wall of the base 20, and the other of the positioning rib 30 and the positioning groove 31 is provided on the inner wall of the housing 10. The positioning rib 30 and the positioning groove 31 are in positioning cooperation, so that the relative positions of the base 20 and the housing 10 in the circumferential direction of the housing 10 can be fixed.

[0062] Among them, when the outer wall of the base 20 is provided with the positioning rib 30, the inner wall of the housing 10 is correspondingly provided with the positioning groove 31. When the outer wall of the base 20 is provided with the positioning groove 31, the inner wall of the housing 10 is correspondingly provided with the positioning rib 30. The base 20 and the housing 10 are in positioning cooperation through the positioning rib 30 and the positioning groove 31, which can realize the accurate installation of the base 20 and the housing 10, and can also fix the relative positions of the base 20 and the housing 10 in the circumferential direction of the housing 10.

[0063] According to a specific embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 7 shown, the outer wall of the base 20 is provided with the positioning rib 30, and the height of the positioning rib 30 protruding from the outer wall of the base 20 is greater than the height of the limiting structure 21 protruding from the outer wall of the base 20.

[0064] Specifically, the height of the positioning rib 30 protruding outward in the axial direction perpendicular to the base 20 is greater than the height of the limiting structure 21 protruding outward. This can not only prevent the wrong installation of the base 20, but also play a role in accurate positioning and installation.

[0065] According to some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 7 and Figure 10As shown, the positioning rib 30 is in clearance fit with the positioning groove 31. In this way, the assembly difficulty between the positioning rib 30 and the positioning groove 31 can be reduced, and the assembly difficulty or instability after assembly caused by position deviation can be avoided, so that the accuracy of the installation direction between the base 20 and the housing 10 can be ensured.

[0066] According to some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the sensor 100 further includes: a detection component 60, the detection component 60 is installed on the housing 10, and the detection component 60 is connected to the base 20. The detection component 60 includes a pressure measuring element 64, and the medium can contact the pressure measuring element 64 through the medium channel. The medium can contact the pressure measuring element 64 through the medium channel, so that there is no need to separately provide a pressure inlet.

[0067] According to some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 4 and Figure 8 shown, the end of the base 20 facing the detection component 60 is provided with a plurality of anti-collision protrusions 22 arranged at intervals, and the plurality of anti-collision protrusions 22 are adapted to be in abutting fit with the detection component 60.

[0068] Among them, the connector 61, the circuit board 63 and the support frame 62 form the detection component 60. The detection component 60 is installed at the upper end of the housing 10, and the detection component 60 is connected to the base 20.

[0069] In addition, the end surface of the base 20 facing the detection component 60 is provided with a plurality of anti-collision protrusions 22. The anti-collision protrusions 22 are set in a cylindrical shape, and the plurality of anti-collision protrusions 22 are arranged at intervals, which can make the force between the base 20 and the detection component 60 more uniform, and can also eliminate the gap between the base 20 and the detection component 60 during the assembly process, prevent the base 20 and the detection component 60 from colliding, and thus can improve the safety performance of the sensor 100.

[0070] According to some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 3 shown, the sensor 100 further includes a first seal 70. The first seal 70 is provided between the housing 10 and the detection component 60 and the first seal 70 surrounds the base 20.

[0071] Among them, the first seal 70 is located between the detection component 60 and the housing 10. The first seal 70 is an O-ring seal. During the installation process, the detection component 60 squeezes the first seal 70, and the first seal 70 surrounds the base 20. The medium is inside the first seal 70. In this way, the leakage of the medium can be avoided from damaging the parts of the detection component 60, and thus the sealing performance between the detection component 60 and the housing 10 can be ensured.

[0072] In addition, a threaded section is provided on the outer periphery of the housing 10. When the sensor 100 needs to be installed on a certain pipeline for measurement, the threaded section of the housing 10 is connected to the pipeline, and the housing 10 and the pipeline are tightly fitted through the thread. The second seal 71 is located on one side of the threaded section in the axial direction of the housing 10, which can ensure the sealing between the pipeline and the housing 10 and prevent the liquid in the pipeline from leaking, thereby improving the safety of the sensor 100.

[0073] According to some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the detection assembly 60 includes: a connector 61, a support frame 62, and a circuit board 63. The support frame 62 is installed on the housing 10, the support frame 62 is connected to the connector 61, and the circuit board 63 is disposed on the support frame 62. The circuit board 63 is electrically connected to the connector 61 and the base 20 respectively.

[0074] According to some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 3 shown, the sensor 100 further includes a first seal 70. The support frame 62 is formed with a through hole 66. The first seal 70 is disposed in the through hole 66, and the first seal 70 is in abutting cooperation with the circuit board 63. The pressure measuring element 64 is disposed on one side of the circuit board 63 facing the through hole 66, and the pressure measuring element 64 is surrounded by the first seal 70.

[0075] Among them, the detection assembly 60 is mainly composed of a connector 61, a support frame 62, a circuit board 63, and a pressure measuring element 64. The circuit board 63 is disposed in the support frame 62. The support frame 62 can not only provide an installation space for the circuit board 63, but also play a role in protecting the circuit board 63. During the installation process, it can avoid damage caused by extrusion between the circuit board 63 and the housing 10. The first seal 70 is located in the through hole 66 of the support frame 62, and the first seal 70 is placed on the annular support platform of the housing 10, which can increase the contact area between the first seal 70 and the annular support platform, thereby preventing the first seal 70 from being damaged due to overpressure and causing the sealing effect of the first seal 70 to fail. The first seal 70 is in contact with the circuit board 63 and the annular support platform respectively. The first seal 70 contains a medium. The first seal 70 can divide the circuit board 63 into a medium isolation area and a medium contact area. In this way, it can ensure that the pressure core in the medium area is in full contact with the medium, thereby ensuring the pressure measurement accuracy and preventing the medium from leaking, thereby ensuring the sealing of the sensor 100.

[0076] Furthermore, the circuit board 63 is a ceramic circuit board 63. Compared with the flexible circuit board 63, the ceramic circuit board 63 can prevent the circuit board 63 from being damaged during the press-fitting process of the sensor 100. At the same time, the ceramic circuit board 63 can also act as an extrusion plane and deform by extrusion with the first seal 70, thereby ensuring the sealing performance of the sealing cavity in the sensor 100.

[0077] In addition, after the detection component 60 is installed in place in the housing 10, the upper part of the housing 10 will be riveted, which can fix the installation position of the detection component 60, thereby ensuring the effective seal within the first seal 70. At the same time, vulcanized silicone rubber (RTV glue) is applied around the riveting circumference to isolate the outside water vapor from entering the connector 61 and damaging the circuit board 63. Among them, the connector 61, the support frame 62, and the housing 10 are designed with a positioning and anti-misassembly structure, which is convenient for the automated assembly production of the product.

[0078] According to some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown, the support frame 62 is provided with a circuit board installation groove 631, the inner wall of the circuit board installation groove 631 is provided with a circuit board limiting portion 632, the circuit board 63 is disposed in the circuit board installation groove 631, and the circuit board limiting portion 63 is adapted to limit the circuit board 632.

[0079] Among them, the circuit board 63 is disposed in the circuit board installation groove 631, and the circuit board 63 is fixed in the circuit board installation groove 631 through the circuit board limiting portion 632, which can prevent the circuit board 63 from moving, ensure the stability of the electrical connection between the circuit board 63 and the connector 61, and also avoid damage to the product components caused by the rigid contact between the circuit board 63 and the housing 10. Moreover, the circuit board limiting portion 632 is an inclined surface protrusion, and the inclined surface plays a guiding role, which is convenient for the circuit board 63 to enter the circuit board installation groove 631.

[0080] In addition, a placement surface for the circuit board 63 is formed on the support frame 62, and a grounding port can also be provided on the placement surface of the circuit board 63, so that the circuit board 63 can be grounded through the housing.

[0082] Specifically, when the support frame 62 is provided with a buckle 611, correspondingly, the connector 61 is provided with a clamping arm 65. When the support frame 62 is provided with a clamping arm 65, correspondingly, the connector 61 is provided with a buckle 611. In this way, the buckle 611 is engaged with the clamping groove, which can facilitate the connection and cooperation between the support frame 62 and the connector 61, thereby facilitating the disassembly and installation of the support frame 62 and the connector 61, and ensuring the effective connection between the support frame 62 and the connector 61, and ensuring the normal communication function.

[0083] According to a specific embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 3 and Figure 5 shown, the support frame 62 is provided with one of a first positioning hole 80 and a first positioning post 81, and the connector 61 is provided with the other of the first positioning hole 80 and the first positioning post 81.

[0086] Among them, when the lower end of the support frame 62 is provided with a second positioning post 91, the housing 10 is correspondingly provided with a second positioning hole 90. When the lower end of the support frame 62 is provided with a second positioning hole 90, the housing 10 is correspondingly provided with a second positioning post 91.

[0087] According to some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 3As shown, the sensor 100 further includes a temperature measuring element 40 and a protective sleeve 41. The temperature measuring element 40 is disposed on the base 20. The protective sleeve 41 is connected to the base 20, and the protective sleeve 41 covers the temperature measuring element 40. The protective sleeve 41 is provided with a temperature measuring hole for the medium to contact the temperature measuring element 40. The protective sleeve 41 and the inner wall of the housing 10 are positioned and fitted in the axial direction of the housing 10.

[0088] Wherein, connecting the protective sleeve 41 to the base 20 can ensure that the protective sleeve 41 and the base 20 do not rotate relative to each other, and the protective sleeve 41 covers the temperature measuring element 40, which can protect the temperature measuring element 40. Further, the protective sleeve 41 is provided with a temperature measuring hole for the medium to contact the temperature measuring element 40. The temperature measuring hole includes a first temperature measuring hole 42 and a second temperature measuring hole 43. The first temperature measuring hole 42 is disposed on the end face of the protective sleeve 41 away from the base 20, which can facilitate the medium to enter from the first temperature measuring hole 42 and can quickly contact the medium for temperature measurement. The second temperature measuring hole 43 is disposed on the peripheral wall of the protective sleeve 41 and is adjacent to the end of the protective sleeve 41 away from the base 20, which can further increase the contact area between the medium and the peripheral direction of the protective sleeve 41 and the temperature measuring element 40, thereby ensuring the accuracy of temperature measurement and accelerating the contact rate between the medium and the temperature measuring element 40. Among them, the temperature measuring element 40 can be a thermistor.

[0089] Further, a plurality of second temperature measuring holes 43 can be provided on the peripheral wall of the protective sleeve 41, and the plurality of second temperature measuring holes 43 extend to a position where the medium contacts the temperature measuring element 40, which can further accelerate the contact rate between the medium and the temperature measuring element 40.

[0090] In addition, the second temperature measuring holes 43 are distributed at intervals along the circumferential direction of the protective sleeve 41, which can make the medium contact the temperature measuring element 40 evenly, thereby further ensuring the accuracy of temperature measurement of the temperature measuring element 40. For example, the second temperature measuring holes 43 can be four, and the four second temperature measuring holes 43 are evenly spaced in the circumferential direction of the protective sleeve 41, and the connection lines of the two pairs of opposite second temperature measuring holes 43 form a cross line.

[0091] Wherein, a groove can be provided on the outer wall of the protective sleeve 41, which can cooperate with the protrusion provided on the inner wall of the housing 10, which can not only play a positioning role but also prevent circumferential rotation between the protective sleeve 41 and the housing 10, thereby ensuring the correct installation of the protective sleeve 41 and the housing 10.

[0092] In addition, as Figure 3 shown, a part of the lower end of the temperature measuring element 40 is located outside the housing 10, which can more quickly and accurately detect the medium temperature.
