Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a light absorption detector based on a MEMS structure, belonging to the technical field of energy storage fire detectors. Background Art

[0002] Energy storage facilities, such as energy storage power stations and storage containers, typically store large amounts of electrical energy. Once a fire occurs, it will spread rapidly, with serious consequences. Therefore, energy storage firefighting systems often employ multiple protective measures, including fire warning, fire extinguishing, and cooling, to ensure timely and effective fire control. Gas detection technology also plays a crucial role in energy storage firefighting. Gas detectors installed within energy storage facilities can monitor the gas composition and concentration within the facility in real time. Once a leak of combustible or other hazardous gases is detected, appropriate safety measures can be promptly initiated to prevent accidents such as fires or explosions.

[0003] Existing gas detection technologies include electrochemical and fiber optic. However, electrochemical gas detection suffers from a limited range and short lifespan, while fiber optic gas detection suffers from bulk, high cost, low sensitivity, and immature gas concentration gradient separation technology, making them unsuitable for energy storage firefighting systems. Therefore, it is imperative to develop a MEMS-based absorption detector suitable for use in energy storage firefighting systems. Utility Model Content

[0021] The principles and features of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0022] like Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, a light absorption detector based on a MEMS structure includes a packaging substrate 1, a BT tube shell 10 is provided on the packaging substrate 1, a MEMS transmitting chip 2 and a MEMS receiving chip 3 are provided in the BT tube shell 10, a dam 7 is provided between the MEMS receiving chip 3 and the MEMS transmitting chip 2 for separation, a glass substrate 8 is provided at the upper end of the BT tube shell 10 for sealing connection, the outer surface of the glass substrate 8 is coated with a chemical thin film medium 81, and a sealing colloid 9 is poured into the inside of the BT tube shell 10, which respectively covers the MEMS transmitting chip 2 and the MEMS receiving chip 3 to isolate the chips from the gas.

[0023] The packaging substrate 1 is provided with a first bonding area 4 and a second bonding area 5 , and the MEMS transmitting chip 2 and the MEMS receiving chip 3 are respectively provided on the first bonding area 4 and the second bonding area 5 .

[0024] The height of the dam 7 is the same as that of the BT tube shell 10 .

[0025] The lower end of the BT tube shell 10 is sealed and connected to the packaging substrate 1 .

[0026] The top of the BT tube shell 10 is open.

[0027] The position and area of the chemical thin film medium 81 can match the MEMS transmitting chip 2 and the MEMS receiving chip 3 .

[0028] The MEMS receiving chip 3 and the MEMS transmitting chip 2 are both provided with gold wires 6 connected to the packaging substrate 1 .

[0029] The upper end surface of the dam 7 is sealed to the glass substrate 8 .

[0030] The dam 7 is made of opaque metal, ceramic or PCB board.

[0031] The sealing colloid 9 is an insulating and light-transmitting colloid.

[0032] During operation, the surface of glass substrate 8 is coated with a chemical film medium 81. In a normal air environment, this medium does not chemically react and strongly absorbs light emitted by MEMS transmitter chip 2, weakening the refracted light received by MEMS receiver chip 3. However, when air contains flammable or other harmful gases, it reacts with the chemical film medium 81, producing a new substance that absorbs less light from MEMS transmitter chip 2 and intensifies the refracted light received by MEMS receiver chip 3. This change in light intensity detected by MEMS receiver chip 3 enables detection of flammable or other harmful gases.

[0033] By setting a chemical thin film medium 81 on the glass substrate 8, after reacting with combustible gas or other harmful gas, the light absorption of the film can be changed, and the reflectivity can be enhanced, thereby realizing the detection function of combustible gas or other harmful gas; the overall volume of the light absorption detector is smaller, and it is more suitable for small spaces such as battery packs in energy storage systems. The cost is much lower than that of optical fiber gas detection, and the service life is longer.

[0034] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
