Description
Technical Field
[0001] This disclosure generally relates to the technical field of alarm devices. More specifically, this disclosure relates to a household gas alarm. Background Art
[0002] A gas alarm is a device used to detect the concentration of combustible gases in the environment. When the detected gas concentration exceeds a preset safety threshold, the device will emit an alarm to remind users to take corresponding safety measures. Such devices are widely used in household, commercial, and industrial environments to prevent fire or explosion accidents caused by gas leakage. Gas alarms mainly detect combustible gases in the air through sensors. These sensors can sense the presence of specific gases and convert this sensing into electrical signals, which are then processed by a microcontroller or other control units. If the concentration exceeds the set safety level, the alarm mechanism will be triggered.
[0003] Currently, the detection gas chamber of a household gas alarm is generally located inside the product, and gas can enter the detection gas chamber through the air intake holes on the housing of the household gas alarm. However, this design has many problems during use. First, kitchen oil stains and dust are easily introduced into the detection gas chamber through the air intake holes, resulting in a decrease in the detection accuracy of the detector. Second, after long-term use, oil stains and dust will accumulate at the air intake holes of the household gas alarm, hindering the circulation of gas inside and outside the detection gas chamber, resulting in detection failure. Due to the foregoing reasons, the household gas alarm may experience false alarms or missed alarms, affecting its reliability and service life. Further, the detection gas chamber of conventional products is located inside the alarm and cannot be disassembled, making it difficult to clean and maintain the detection gas chamber. In addition, in traditional designs, the air intake holes are usually set on the front of the product, thus affecting the overall aesthetics of the product.
[0004] In view of this, there is an urgent need to provide a household gas alarm that can effectively prevent oil stains and dust from entering the interior of the household gas alarm, thereby effectively improving the detection accuracy, service life, and aesthetics of the household gas alarm.

[0046] Figure 3Shows an exemplary structural diagram of the mounting plate 103 of a household gas alarm according to an embodiment of the present utility model. Figure 4 Shows a structural diagram of the bars of the anti-oil and anti-dirt grille air intake structure 1031 of a household gas alarm according to an embodiment of the present utility model. The following will be combined with Figure 3 and Figure 4 to give an exemplary description of the aforementioned mounting plate.
[0047] As Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the present utility model provides a mounting plate 103, which may include an anti-oil and anti-dirt grille air intake structure 1031, a plurality of rotating buckles 1032, and mounting holes 1033 for fixing to the wall. This design integrates multiple functions, ensuring both the stable installation of the device and achieving the purposes of anti-oil and anti-dirt and easy disassembly. In one embodiment, the aforementioned anti-oil and anti-dirt grille air intake structure 1031 may include a plurality of bars, wherein the aforementioned bars may be of an asymmetric shape, which may include a first width D and a second width d, wherein the first width D may be greater than the second width d. For example, the first width D may be 1.5 - 2.5 mm, and the second width d may be 0.5 - 1.5 mm. Such a design can effectively block most of the oil and dust while ensuring sufficient gas flow. In one embodiment, the shape of the aforementioned bars may be a long and narrow through-hole, and the aforementioned bars may be arranged as bars with different widths on the surfaces at both ends of the through-hole. The aforementioned first width D may be the width of the bar in the direction close to the outside of the household gas alarm, and the aforementioned second width d may be the width of the bar in the direction close to the inside of the household gas alarm. In one embodiment, the aforementioned bars may be inclined upward, and the inclination angle may be, for example, 15 - 30 degrees, for preventing oil and dust from entering the aforementioned detection gas chamber. In one embodiment, the aforementioned plurality of bars may be a group of parallel bars, and the spacing between the bars may be 2 - 4 mm to ensure sufficient gas flow. In one embodiment, the aforementioned anti-oil and anti-dirt grille air intake structure 1031 may also be used to collect the gas in the environment for concentration detection.
[0048] It can be understood that, for the anti-oil pollution air intake structure according to the embodiments of the present utility model, during the use of the household gas alarm, since the grid bars are designed to be inclined upward and the first width D is greater than the second width d (that is, the width of the grid bars near the outer side of the household gas alarm is greater than the width of the grid bars near the inner side of the household gas alarm, forming a structure of "larger outside and smaller inside"), larger oil droplets or oil stains in the air will be blocked outside the household gas alarm. In one embodiment, the household gas alarm can use oil-repellent materials, such as polyurethane foam materials or polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) coatings. Through the design of the foregoing grid bar structure and the selection of the materials of the household gas alarm, oil stains and dust can be effectively blocked from entering the detection gas chamber, thereby improving the detection accuracy of the household gas alarm, extending the service life of the device, and reducing the maintenance frequency.
[0049] The multiple rotating buckles 1032 on the foregoing mounting plate can be detachably connected to the card slots 1022 on the foregoing rear cover in a rotating manner, and the rear cover can be disassembled conveniently and quickly for cleaning operations.

Among them, the foregoing wall fixing mounting holes 1033 can be circular holes, and the diameter can be, for example, 5-8 mm, and the stress can be more evenly distributed when stressed, thereby improving the overall stability of the structure. In one embodiment, a gap is reserved between the foregoing mounting plate and the foregoing wall for gas to enter. This design not only ensures the stable installation of the device but also does not affect the normal detection of gas.
[0051] The above combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 has made an exemplary description of the household sensor according to the embodiments of the present utility model. It can be understood that the illustration in the figure is exemplary rather than restrictive. For example, the number of grid bars may not be limited to the 3 groups shown in the illustration, and can also be set more as needed, such as 5-7 groups, to further improve the anti-oil pollution effect. In addition, the specific shape and size of the grid bars can also be appropriately adjusted according to the actual application scenario to achieve the best anti-oil pollution and gas detection effects.
[0052] Figure 5 shows an exemplary structural diagram of the rear cover 102 of the household gas alarm according to the embodiments of the present utility model. As Figure 5 shown, the foregoing rear cover 102 can be provided with a circuit board 1021, a card slot 1022, and a detection device 104.

The aforementioned circuit board 1021 may include a PCB circuit board. Among them, an information acquisition and processing module 106 may be provided on the aforementioned PCB circuit board. The information acquisition and processing module 106 may be electrically connected to the aforementioned detection device 104 for acquiring and processing the detection information of the aforementioned detection device. In one embodiment, the aforementioned card slot 1022 may be cooperatively connected with the rotary buckle 1032 on the aforementioned mounting plate 103, so that the aforementioned rear cover 102 and the aforementioned mounting plate 103 are detachably connected by rotation. This rotary buckle design can achieve 90-degree rotation locking or unlocking, and the operating torque is controlled within a certain range, which not only ensures the firmness of the connection but also ensures the convenience of operation.

[0055] In one embodiment, the foregoing panel may further include a light guide column 1081, which can be used to propagate light. Specifically, the foregoing light guide column 1081 may be connected to the foregoing indicator light 1052 to propagate the light of the indicator light 1052. The light guide column can be made of PC material, with a length of about 3.5 mm and a diameter of 2.8 mm to provide good light conduction effect. In one embodiment, the foregoing indicator light 1052 may be constantly on in green to indicate that the household gas alarm is working properly; the foregoing indicator light 1052 may blink in red (such as blinking 4 times per second) to alarm that the concentration of natural gas or smoke exceeds the preset value (usually 10% LEL), which may have an impact on physical health; the foregoing indicator light 1052 may also be constantly on in yellow to indicate that the household gas alarm has a fault and needs to be repaired or the foregoing detection chamber needs to be cleaned. It can be understood that the light guide column 1081 is used to propagate the light of the indicator light 1052. Therefore, when the indicator light 1052 is on in green, red or yellow, the light guide column 1081 can be on in green, red or yellow correspondingly. This design can ensure that users can clearly see the working state of the device from all angles.
[0056] In one embodiment, the foregoing housing 101 may be set to a cylindrical shape, with a diameter of about 100 mm and a height of about 30 mm to provide sufficient internal space while maintaining aesthetics. The foregoing rear cover 102, middle layer 107, and panel 108 are arranged inside the foregoing housing 101. Further, one side of the mounting plate 103 may be connected to the foregoing rear cover 102, and the other side of the mounting plate may be fixedly connected to the wall through the mounting holes 1033. The diameter of the mounting holes is usually 5 - 8 mm to adapt to common expansion bolts. This design not only ensures the stable installation of the device, but also facilitates disassembly and cleaning, and at the same time ensures the normal flow and detection of gas by reserving a gap of 3 - 5 mm.
[0057] This implementation solution ensures that gas can smoothly enter the device for detection by reserving a gap of, for example, 3 - 5 millimeters between the mounting plate and the wall. This design not only ensures the accuracy of detection, but also avoids detection dead - angles that may be caused by the device being closely attached to the wall. When gas enters the household gas alarm, by setting an anti - oil - stain grille intake structure on the rear cover 102 and setting the grille to be inclined upward, it can effectively prevent oil stains and dust from entering the interior of the household gas alarm while not affecting the normal flow of gas. In addition, using an oil - repellent material such as a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) coating further enhances the anti - oil - stain effect.
[0058] In addition, the mounting plate 103 of this solution is fixedly connected to the wall surface, while the mounting plate 103 is detachably connected to the rear cover 102. This design allows users to easily remove the rear cover by rotating it 90 degrees without removing the entire device. Therefore, when it is necessary to clean the detection device of the household gas alarm, it can be disassembled first and then cleaned, which facilitates the cleaning operation, greatly reduces the maintenance difficulty, and thus can improve the detection accuracy of the household gas alarm.
