Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive electronic control technology, specifically to a phase sensor assembly. Background Technology

[0002] Phase sensors are a collective term for camshaft position sensors and crankshaft position sensors. They are used to detect the engine's valve timing, that is, the crankshaft angle corresponding to the opening and closing times of the intake and exhaust valves according to the engine's working cycle. This information is crucial for determining the engine's ignition timing. Phase sensors achieve their function by detecting the camshaft position angle. Their probes contain detection coils that can sense nearby metal objects, and they have a significant impact on engine performance, economy, and environmental performance.

[0003] The publication number CN210363774U discloses an ABS wheel speed sensor assembly, including a sensor head, a multi-core wire, a sheath, a plug, a terminal, a bushing, a plastic seal, a fixing plate, a sleeve, a plug-in part, heat dissipation holes, a heat-conducting pipe, a miniature heat sink, a dustproof mesh, and a sealing ring. The sensor head is equipped with a fixing plate, one end of which is fitted with a bushing, and the other end with a sleeve. Heat dissipation holes are evenly distributed on one side of the sensor head, and a heat-conducting pipe is installed within each hole, with one end of the heat-conducting pipe communicating with the outside. The inner wall of the heat-conducting pipe... Miniature heat sinks are provided at both the top and bottom, and a dustproof mesh is installed on one side of each miniature heat sink. One end of the sensor head is connected to a multi-core wire via a connector. The multi-core wire includes an inner layer, a heat insulation protective layer, a silicone waterproof layer, and a wear-resistant layer. The structure is simple and provides good protection for the wire. However, this technology does not have a reinforced fixation at the plug terminal. Under long-term use, the plug terminal is prone to loosening. During vehicle operation, vibrations can easily cause the plug terminal to fall off, affecting signal transmission and posing a certain safety hazard. Therefore, this technology still has room for improvement. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a phase sensor assembly that addresses the shortcomings of the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a phase sensor assembly, including a housing, a fixed disk, and a connecting terminal.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, a first inclined surface is set on the top of the hinge block, and abutment plates are fixed on both sides of the connecting block to abut against the first inclined surface. At the same time, an abutment groove with a second inclined surface is opened on the edge of the connecting port to guide the fixing claw to be fixed in the oblique direction, which enhances the clamping force and stability of the fixing claw. It also enables the plug end to automatically align and be firmly positioned during the insertion process, effectively preventing loosening or falling off.
