[0002] Regularly monitoring the operating status of critical equipment components is essential for ensuring safe and stable operation. Vibration signals are a simple and effective source of fault signals. Currently, wired sensors are commonly used, but these are inconvenient to install in narrow spaces and are limited by cable length, affecting the convenience of equipment status monitoring. Therefore, a miniature wireless sensing device based on MEMS technology has been developed. This sensor is small, lightweight, and easy to install. Vibration signals can be transmitted wirelessly via Bluetooth, eliminating cable limitations.

Currently, there are few similar clamping devices for mechanical MEMS sensors. There are only fixing clips for temperature and wheel speed sensors, which cannot be applied to vibration signal sensing sensors. Based on this situation, a fixing clip is designed for this micro sensor to ensure stable signal acquisition. Utility Model Content
