Specific embodiments
[0021] The technical solution of the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings to make it easier to understand and master. The components such as the sealing ring 7, the pressing ring 8, the housing 9 and the support rib 10 involved are all commonly used ones that are generally recognized by those of ordinary skill in the art, and there are no special requirements for them in this case.
[0022] As Figures 1 to 5 shown, the present utility model provides a disposable pressure sensor that is convenient for integrated installation, including a pressure sensor body 6. The bottom of the pressure sensor body 6 is fixedly connected to a pipeline pipe body 1, and the pressure sensor body 6 is located in a housing 9, and the housing 9 is arranged on the top of the pipeline pipe body 1.
[0023] According to the technical solution of the present utility model, a plate body 5 is arranged on the outer side wall of the pipeline pipe body 1, and the plate body 5 is fixedly connected to the housing 9. A groove 4 is arranged on the inner side of the plate body 5, and the pressure sensor body 6 is fixed on the groove 4; a diaphragm 3 is arranged on the inner side wall of the pipeline pipe body 1 below the groove 4, and the diaphragm 3 and the pipeline pipe body 1 are integrally formed by injection molding of PP and EPDM; the diaphragm 3 is connected to the pressure sensor body 6 in a communicating manner, and a filling liquid is arranged between the diaphragm 3 and the pressure chip arranged inside the pressure sensor body 6; the filling liquid can suppress pressure peaks, impacts and vibrations, and protect the mechanical components of the pressure gauge, thereby effectively reducing component fatigue and failures.
[0024] Specifically, the filling liquid is a silicone oil. The main function of the silicone oil is to serve as a pressure transmission medium to transmit the external pressure signal to the sensing element of the pressure sensor. When an external pressure acts on the pressure sensor, the silicone oil will deform accordingly and transmit this deformation to the sensing element. After receiving the pressure signal transmitted by the silicone oil, the sensing element will convert it into an electrical signal for output, thereby achieving the measurement of pressure.
[0025] Preferably, in the above structure: both ends of the pipe body 1 of the pipeline are provided with bevel connectors 2 along its length direction. The male bevel plug or female bevel plug of the bevel connector 2 can be selected for assembly according to the use requirements, which has higher load-bearing and relaxation capabilities and can avoid loosening and deformation.
[0026] Preferably, as Figure 6 shown, in the above structure: the pressure sensor body 6 includes a pressure chip 61, a circuit board 62, a filling liquid channel 63 and a protective shell 64. The pressure chip 61 and the circuit board 62 are both encapsulated by the protective shell 64. The pressure chip 61 is a MEMS pressure sensor chip. One end of the MEMS pressure sensor chip is connected to the circuit board 62 through wire bonding. Using a thin metal wire, through heat, pressure, and ultrasonic energy, the metal lead is tightly soldered to the substrate pad of the circuit board 62 to achieve electrical interconnection between the MEMS pressure sensor chip and the substrate and information intercommunication between the MEMS pressure sensor chips. Under ideal control conditions, electron sharing or atomic mutual diffusion will occur between the lead and the substrate, thereby achieving atomic-level bonding between the two metals, facilitating integrated installation and reducing the required occupied space volume. The other end of the MEMS pressure sensor chip is placed inside the filling liquid channel 63 for filling the filling liquid (i.e., the filling liquid is silicone oil). The bottom end of the filling liquid channel 63 is connected to the diaphragm 3. The pressure inside the pipeline acts on the diaphragm 3 to cause it to deform, compressing the silicone oil, and the silicone oil conducts the pressure to the MEMS pressure sensor chip through the filling liquid channel 63, thereby measuring the pressure value inside the pipeline.
[0027] Specifically, in the structure of the above-mentioned pressure sensor body 6, a sealing ring 7 is provided between the filling liquid channel 63 and the diaphragm 3, and the sealing ring 7 is tightly connected to the diaphragm 3 through a compression ring 8, which helps to improve the assembly sealing performance between the filling liquid channel 63 and the diaphragm 3 and avoid leakage problems.
[0028] Further, in the above structure: Several equally spaced support ribs 10 are provided between the pipe body 1 of the pipeline and the housing 9. The top end of the support rib 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the housing 9, and the bottom end of the support rib 10 is fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the pipe body 1 of the pipeline. The support ribs 10 can improve the compressive, bending and torsional resistance and other properties between the pipe body 1 of the pipeline and the housing 9, and are fixedly connected by means of welding or extrusion. The shape and size of the support ribs 10 are customized according to specific requirements to meet the reinforcement and installation performance requirements of the pipe body 1 of the pipeline and the housing 9 in different application scenarios.
[0029] Further, in the above structure: Screws are provided on the housing 9, and threaded holes for positioning and cooperating with the screws are provided on the plate body 5. So as to enable detachable installation and replacement between the housing 9 and the plate body 5.
[0030] In the technical solution of the present utility model, the diaphragm 3 and the pipe body 1 are integrally injection-molded. The pressure between the diaphragm and the pressure sensor body 6 is conducted through a medium filling liquid (silicone oil) to accurately measure the pressure inside the pipeline. The combination of these two aspects is the technical key of this case. Figure 4 What is mainly shown is the related components involved in the sealed installation of the pressure sensor body 6 and the diaphragm 3. Figure 4 What is shown is the specific structure of the pressure sensor body 6. The pressure generated inside the pipeline compresses the silicone oil, and the pressure is conducted to the pressure chip 61 arranged inside the pressure sensor body 6 to measure the pressure value inside the pipeline. For components such as the sealing ring 7, the pressure ring 8, the housing 9 and the support ribs 10, those of ordinary skill in the art can make conventional settings according to the existing technology, and there are no special requirements for the model selection and combined use of them in this case.
[0031] In this way, adopting the technical solution of the present utility model, when using this disposable pressure sensor which is convenient for integrated installation in a one-time alkaline lysis system, a one-time chromatography system or a one-time ultrafiltration system, it has high precision, is easy to install and use, has a simple structure, and a low material cost; when the pipe body 1 of the pipeline is connected to the pipeline of the system to be measured for pressure, when the pressure inside the pipeline acts on the diaphragm 3 to cause it to deform, the pressure generated inside the pipeline compresses the silicone oil, and the pressure is conducted to the pressure chip 61 (i.e., the MEMS pressure sensor chip) through the silicone oil medium, so that the pressure value inside the pipeline can be quickly and accurately measured. Finally, by scanning and measuring the pressure with the equipped electronic system (the electronic system is the first-generation electronic scanning pressure measurement system, DSY-128; the second-generation electronic scanning pressure measurement system, DSY-JB), the pressure of this pipeline can be read.
[0032] As can be seen from the above description, compared with the prior art, after adopting the technical solution of the present utility model, the pipe body and the diaphragm are integrally formed by injection molding, effectively reducing the manufacturing cost. When the pressure in the pipe acts on the diaphragm to cause deformation, the pressure generated in the pipe compresses the silicone oil, and the pressure is transmitted to the pressure chip through the silicone oil medium, so that the pressure value in the pipe can be quickly and accurately measured. Moreover, the ends of the pipe body are all provided with taper connectors suitable for quick connection of the pipe, which is also convenient for the installation of the hose.
[0033] The technical solution, working process and implementation effect of the present utility model have been described in detail above. It should be noted that the described are only typical examples of the present utility model. In addition, the present utility model can also have many other specific implementation manners. Any technical solution formed by equivalent replacement or equivalent transformation falls within the scope of protection required by the present utility model.
