Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0034] like Figs. 1 to 3 As shown, the spectrometer detector sealing structure in one embodiment of the present invention includes a mounting housing 10 and a detector disposed on the mounting housing 10.

[0035] like Fig. 1 As shown, a vacuum chamber 11 is formed inside the mounting housing 10, and a through hole 12 is provided on the cavity wall of the vacuum chamber 11. A first groove structure 13 is recessed on the outer surface of the mounting housing 10 at the location of the through hole 12.

[0036] The probe comprises a first barrel 21, a barrel cap 22, a second barrel 23, a probe head 24 and an amplifier 25.

[0037] Reference Fig. 2 And Fig. 3 As shown, the first barrel 21 comprises a body 214. The body 214 is preferably a circular structure. The body 214 of the first barrel 21 can be arranged in the through hole 12 of the mounting shell 10 and a second seal 32 is arranged between the body 214 and the inner wall of the through hole 12.

[0038] The first barrel 21 is axially hollow and has a first chamber 211 and a second chamber 212 which are distributed in communication in the axial direction.

[0040] The outer diameter of the stepped portion 213 is greater than the inner diameter of the through hole 12 of the mounting shell 10 and greater than the outer diameter of the first groove structure 13. When the first barrel 21 is arranged in the through hole 12 of the mounting shell 10, the stepped portion 213 abuts against the outer surface of the mounting shell 10 and covers the first groove structure 13, so that the second seal 32 located in the first groove structure 13 can completely seal the gap between the stepped portion 213 of the first barrel 21 and the through hole 12.

[0041] The second seal 32 is preferably a sealing ring.

[0042] Further, the outer circumferential surface of the first barrel 21 is provided with buckles or threads at the end where the second chamber 212 is located, for fixing the barrel cap 22. The barrel cap 22 is also provided with buckles or threads, and the barrel cap 22 is arranged at the end of the second chamber 212 of the first barrel 21. The barrel cap 22 is formed with a detection window 221, which facilitates the detection of the vacuum chamber 11 by the probe head 24 in the first barrel 21.

[0043] Preferably, the outer diameter of the first barrel 21 at the end of the second chamber 212 is smaller than the outer diameter of the middle section of the first barrel 21, so that after the barrel cap 22 is arranged, the overall outer diameter of the end of the second chamber 212 is smaller than the outer diameter of the stepped portion 213. The middle section is the section between the barrel cap 22 and the stepped portion 213.

[0044] The second cylinder 23 is preferably in a circular structure. The second cylinder 23 is arranged in the first chamber 211 of the first cylinder 21. The second cylinder 23 has a first end 231 facing the second chamber 212. The first end 231 can be used to support the probe 24. A third chamber 232 is formed in the second cylinder 23, and the third chamber 232 is used to accommodate the amplifier 25. The second cylinder 23 is preferably a uniform heating cylinder.

[0045] The probe 24 is arranged in the second chamber 212 of the first cylinder 21, and preferably, the probe 24 is arranged on the first end 231 of the second cylinder 23 and the pin portion thereof extends in the third chamber 232 through the first end 231. A first sealing member 31 is arranged between the probe 24 and the inner wall of the second chamber 212.

[0046] The number of the first sealing members 31 can be multiple, and the multiple first sealing members 31 are arranged between the inner wall of the second chamber 212 and the probe 24.

[0047] Specifically, an annular groove 2121 or multiple annular grooves 2121 distributed in an axial direction can be concavely formed on the inner wall of the second chamber 212, and the first sealing member 31 is arranged in the annular groove 2121, and each annular groove 2121 corresponds to at least one first sealing member 31.

[0048] Preferably, one of the first sealing members 31 is arranged on the circumferential surface of the probe 24 close to the cylinder cap 22, and one of the first sealing members 31 is arranged on the circumferential surface of the probe 24 close to the second cylinder 212, so as to seal the gap between the probe 24 and the inner wall of the second chamber 212 of the first cylinder 21.

[0049] In an embodiment, the inner diameter of the second chamber 212 is smaller than the inner diameter of the first chamber 211, so that the first end 231 of the second cylinder 23 abuts against the top wall of the first chamber 211. At least one first sealing member 31 is arranged at the connection between the first end 231 and the probe 24, so as to seal the gap between the probe 24, the second cylinder 23 and the inner wall of the second chamber 212 of the first cylinder 21.

[0050] The first sealing member 31 is preferably a sealing ring.

[0051] The amplifier 25 is arranged in the third chamber 232 of the second cylinder 23 and is electrically connected with the pin portion of the probe 24 extending in the third chamber 232. The amplifier 25 is preferably a preamplifier.

[0052] The installation mode of the spectrometer probe sealing structure of the utility model is as follows:

[0053] By fixing the probe 24 on the second cylinder 23, the amplifier 25 is inserted on the pin of the probe 24 exposed in the second cylinder 23, and a probe sealing ring (the first sealing member 31) is sleeved on the outer circumferential surface of the probe 24; similarly, another probe sealing ring (the first sealing member 31) is sleeved in the groove in the inner wall of the second chamber 211 of the first cylinder 21, and the sleeve sealing ring (the second sealing member 32) is sleeved on the stepped portion 213 of the first cylinder 21 after the cylinder cap 22 is assembled.

[0054] Then, the assembled second cylinder 23, probe 24, amplifier 25 and probe sealing ring are inserted into the first cylinder 21 and assembled into the vacuum cavity 11. In this way, the assembly of the sealed structure of the spectrometer probe is completed.

[0055] In the sealed structure of the spectrometer probe, the plurality of probe sealing rings realize the low-leakage sealing between the inner wall of the first cylinder 21 and the probe 24 and the second cylinder 22. The sleeve sealing ring realizes the low-leakage sealing between the outer wall of the second cylinder 23 and the inner wall of the vacuum cavity 11.

[0056] It can be understood that, since the probe 24 is very fragile, the probe sealing ring cannot be compressed with a large force to realize the low-leakage sealing. In order to achieve the expected beneficial effect, the plurality of probe sealing rings are used to seal the inner wall of the probe 24 and the first cylinder 21 respectively, so as to disperse the pressure of the probe 24. Further, the annular groove is arranged to accommodate the probe sealing ring, so as to further reduce the pressure of the probe 24 caused by the sealing ring. When the assembled second cylinder 23, probe 24, amplifier 25 and probe sealing ring are inserted into the first cylinder 21 and assembled into the vacuum cavity 11, the sealing of the fragile probe can be completed, and the sealed structure of the spectrometer probe of the utility model is formed.

[0057] Based on this, the utility model also provides a spectrometer with the sealed structure of the spectrometer probe.

[0058] Compared with the prior art, the sealed structure of the spectrometer probe and the spectrometer can realize the low-leakage vacuum sealing on the fragile probe, and improve the analysis and detection accuracy and sample adaptability of the spectrometer.

Therefore, the embodiments should be considered as exemplary and non-limiting, the scope of the present application being defined by the claims appended hereto rather than by the above description, and all the changes which fall within the meaning and the scope of the equivalent elements of the claims are intended to be embraced therein. Any reference signs in the claims should not be construed as limiting the claims to the figures in which the reference signs are used.

[0060] Furthermore, it should be understood that although the present specification describes exemplary embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution, and the present specification is described in this way only for the sake of clarity, and a person skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that a person skilled in the art can understand.
