Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of temperature sensors, and in particular to a temperature sensor for an oven. Background Art
[0002] Temperature sensors are key components used in a wide range of fields, including industry, healthcare, and automotive. Their reliability and stability are crucial. Especially in extreme environments or complex applications, temperature sensors must provide accurate temperature measurements and possess sufficient durability to withstand these challenges. Glass-encapsulated thermistors, due to their exceptional stability and reliability, have become a crucial component in temperature measurement. Their glass encapsulation not only provides precise temperature detection but also maintains excellent performance in harsh environments, ensuring long-term stable operation in high-temperature, humid, or corrosive environments.
[0003] Glass-encapsulated thermistors are prone to damage during the manufacturing process of temperature sensors when encapsulated with thermal expansion adhesive. Traditional temperature sensors often lack effective protection measures in their design, making them susceptible to mechanical stress, environmental factors, and other factors during use, which in turn affects their measurement accuracy and service life. For example, the connection between the wire and the sensor body is often damaged by external pulling or vibration, causing short circuits or open circuits. Traditional temperature sensors are directly installed in a fixed position inside the oven using a fixing clamp or welding. Although this method is simple, it has some limitations in practical applications. The fixed installation position may not be suitable for all types of oven structures, resulting in the sensor being unable to accurately reflect the temperature distribution of the entire heating chamber. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This device provides a temperature sensor for an oven, and the specific implementation is as follows:
[0005] A temperature sensor for an oven, comprising:
[0006] The thermistor, the lead portion of which is sequentially sheathed with a Teflon tube and a first glass fiber tube, and the outer layers of both are coated with a silicone resin layer;
[0007] The cover is arranged outside the thermistor, Teflon tube and the end of the first glass fiber tube, and the connecting gap is filled with thermal expansion thermal adhesive. The silicone resin layer is arranged to prevent the thermal expansion thermal adhesive from damaging the first glass fiber tube during expansion packaging.
[0008] Based on the above technical solution, in order to improve the reliability and durability of glass-encapsulated thermistors, a layer of silicone resin is laid on the glass encapsulation part of the thermistor. This layer of silicone resin can effectively absorb stress when the thermal expansion thermal conductive adhesive expands and encapsulates, preventing the glass part from being damaged. The flexibility and temperature resistance of silicone resin make it an ideal buffer material, ensuring the safety of the glass encapsulation part during thermal expansion and contraction. A small-sized transparent Teflon tube is used to wrap the root of the thermistor. In the case of the resistor lead being pulled, the stress generated by the lead pulling is dispersed through the Teflon tube, thereby avoiding the stress from directly acting on the glass encapsulation part, preventing the glass from being broken and damaged due to external forces. The Teflon tube not only has excellent chemical stability and wear resistance, but also has good mechanical strength, which can effectively protect the core part of the thermistor.
[0009] Preferably, two lead wires are led outward from the thermistor and are covered with a first glass fiber tube, and the parts of the two lead wires passing through the shell are covered with a second glass fiber tube.
[0010] Preferably, both leads of the thermistor are connected to the plug terminals through electric wires.
[0011] Based on the above technical solution, a second glass fiber tube is placed at the junction of the lead wire and the wire. This second glass fiber tube can completely cover the junction of the lead wire and the wire, forming a protective layer. The glass fiber tube not only has excellent heat resistance and mechanical strength, but also resists chemical corrosion, effectively preventing damage to the junction of the lead wire and the wire from the external environment. This further enhances the overall reliability of the thermistor, making the glass-encapsulated thermistor not only safer and more reliable during installation and use, but also able to maintain good performance in a variety of complex environments. The junction points of the two lead wires and the wire in the thermistor are preferably staggered.
[0012] Based on the above technical solution, the staggered design of the wire buckle avoids direct contact between metal parts, effectively prevents the occurrence of short circuits, and improves the safety of the thermistor during use.
[0013] Preferably, one end of the second glass fiber tube abuts against the shell, and the other end abuts against the limiting buckle on the wire.
[0014] Based on the above technical solution, the wires at the end of the second glass fiber tube are knotted, which can prevent the second glass fiber tube from moving and thus avoid losing its insulation and protection functions.
[0015] The knotted connection at the end of the wire effectively prevents the second fiberglass tube from shifting during use, ensuring it remains firmly attached to the junction of the lead wire and the wire, providing continuous protection. This reinforced design makes the thermistor more stable and reliable during installation and use, reducing performance degradation and safety issues caused by loose or damaged connections. Application Effect: Enhanced Safety: By knotting the second fiberglass tube and the wire end, the thermistor maintains excellent electrical performance in a variety of complex environments, avoiding safety hazards caused by damage to the lead wire connection.
[0016] Preferably, the positioning plate has two structural modes, namely:
[0017] First, a positioning plate is integrated into the side of the shell, and a plurality of positioning circular holes connected to the oven bolts are opened on the positioning plate.
[0018] Secondly, a positioning plate is integrated on the side of the shell, and a positioning waist hole is opened on the positioning plate.
[0019] In summary, this application has the following beneficial technical effects:
[0020] 1. The glass-encapsulated thermistor in this utility model is protected by a silicone resin layer, so that the thermal expansion adhesive will not damage the glass part when expanding and encapsulating;
[0021] 2. The utility model uses a small transparent Teflon tube at the root of the glass-encapsulated thermistor to protect the glass at the root of the resistor from being damaged when the resistor lead is pulled;
[0022] 3. The utility model has a simple structure. The staggered wire buckle design used when connecting the thermistor lead to the wire can avoid short circuits caused by contact between the metal wire buckles. At the same time, the wires at the end of the second fiberglass tube are knotted to prevent the second fiberglass tube from moving, thereby avoiding loss of insulation and protection.
