Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] Figure 1 This is an exploded view of the utility model's high-precision linear displacement eddy current sensor;

[0027] Figure 2 This is a three-dimensional diagram of the utility model's high-precision linear displacement eddy current sensor;

[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment provides a high-precision linear displacement eddy current sensor of the swinging wire type, comprising: a cover plate 1, a PCB board 2, and a housing 3, which are sequentially covered and fixedly connected to each other, the cover plate 1 being fixedly connected to the housing 3; a wiring harness mechanism 4 being connected to one side of the housing 3; the wiring harness mechanism 4 comprising: a wiring harness 41, a connector 43, and a mounting block 44; the connector 43 being fixedly connected to one end of the wiring harness 41; the mounting block 44 being fixedly connected to the other end of the wiring harness 41; and the mounting block 44 being electrically connected to the PCB board 2. By sealingly connecting the cover plate 1, the PCB board 2, and the housing 3 together, the structural design is simple and highly practical, and the length of the wiring harness 41 in the wiring harness mechanism 4 can be replaced and adjusted according to actual needs, effectively solving the problem that the existing product structure cannot be adapted to different environments.

[0029] Among them, the side circumference of the cover plate 1 is provided with a snap 11; the outer side circumference of the shell 3 is provided with a card slot 35 adapted to the snap 11; when the cover plate 1 and the shell 3 are covered and installed, each snap 11 is snapped into the corresponding card slot 35 to achieve the fixation of the cover plate 1 and the shell 3, and the guiding and clamping functions are realized through the snap structure, which makes installation more convenient.

[0030] Since a glue dispensing groove 33 is circumferentially provided on the inner side of the shell 3, and the glue dispensing groove 33 is provided at the junction of the shell 3 and the cover plate 1, when the cover plate 1 and the shell 3 are covered, the RTV glue in the glue dispensing groove 33 will form a sealed connection between the cover plate 1 and the shell 3, thereby improving the overall sealing of the swing-line high-precision linear displacement eddy current sensor.

[0031] Figure 3 It is a bottom view of the housing of the wire-throwing high-precision linear displacement eddy current sensor of the present invention.

[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, the bottom of the housing 3 is provided with a square slot 31; within this slot 31 are several retaining holes 311 extending through the bottom of the housing 3. The PIN pins on the mounting block 44 are inserted through the corresponding retaining holes 311 and then into the connection holes on the PCB 2, thereby achieving an electrical connection between the mounting block 44 and the PCB 2 and completing the transmission of the collected signals.

[0033] A U-shaped groove 32 is provided near the bottom opening of the square groove 31; the U-shaped groove 32 engages a U-shaped baffle 5. The engagement of the U-shaped baffle 5 and the U-shaped groove 32 forms a cavity for accommodating the mounting block 44. Structural adhesive is injected into the cavity to ensure a tight fit between the square groove 31, the U-shaped baffle 5, and the mounting block 44, improving the product's sealing and strengthening the structural strength of the square groove 31, the U-shaped baffle 5, and the mounting block 44.

[0034] The inner wall of the square groove 31 is provided with a plurality of guide slopes 312. The plurality of guide slopes 312 facilitate the quick insertion of the mounting block 44 into the square groove 31.

[0035] In this embodiment, a sealing ring 6 and a sealing groove 34 are provided at the bottom of the housing 3. The height of the sealing ring 6 is greater than the depth of the sealing groove 34. Setting the height of the sealing ring 6 greater than the depth of the sealing groove 34 enables static sealing of the structure when external equipment is connected.

[0036] In this embodiment, a waterproof and breathable membrane is attached to the inner surface of the housing 3. The provision of the waterproof and breathable membrane can prevent moisture from penetrating into the interior of the housing.

[0037] In this embodiment, four mounting holes 36 are provided on the housing 3 to facilitate more stable connection with external devices.

[0038] In this embodiment, a corrugated tube 42 is provided on the outside of the wire harness 41 near the connector 43 because the corrugated tube 42 has its unique function in protecting the wire harness 41. First, it is very soft and can be bent into different angles as needed, which is unmatched by other materials. Second, it is resistant to high temperatures, fire retardant, easy to operate, and economical.

[0039] In this embodiment, a protective tube 45 is provided on the side of the wiring harness 41 near the mounting block 44. This protective tube 45 protects the portion of the wiring harness 41 not covered by the corrugated tube 42. When structural adhesive is injected into the cavity housing the mounting block 44, one end of the protective tube 45 is also secured therein, thereby strengthening the structural strength between the square slot 31, the U-shaped baffle 5, the mounting block 44, and the protective tube 45.

[0040] In this embodiment, the cover plate 1 and the housing 3 can be fixedly connected by, but not limited to, laser welding or ultrasonic welding.

[0041] In summary, the wire-swinging high-precision linear displacement eddy current sensor of the present invention is sealed and connected to the wiring harness mechanism 4 by covering and encapsulating the cover plate 1, PCB board 2, and shell 3. The structural design is simple and practical. The length of the wiring harness 41 in the wiring harness mechanism 4 can be replaced and adjusted according to actual needs, which effectively solves the problem that the existing product structure cannot be adapted to different environments. The wiring harness mechanism is assembled to the shell 3, which is simple to assemble and the cost of mass production automated assembly equipment is lower. When the cover plate 1 and the shell 3 are covered and installed, each buckle 11 is snapped into the corresponding slot 35 to achieve the fixation of the cover plate 1 and the shell 3. The guiding and clamping functions are realized by the snap-fit ​​structure, and the installation is more convenient; when the cover 1 is covered with the shell 3, the RTV glue in the glue groove 33 will form a sealed connection between the cover 1 and the shell 3, thereby improving the overall sealing of the high-precision linear displacement eddy current sensor of the throwing-line type; by clamping the U-shaped baffle 5 and the U-shaped groove 32, a cavity for accommodating the mounting block 44 is formed, and the structural glue is poured into the cavity to achieve a close fit of the three structures of the square groove 31, the U-shaped baffle 5 and the mounting block 44, thereby improving the sealing of the product and strengthening the structural strength between the square groove 31, the U-shaped baffle 5 and the mounting block 44.
