[0030] like Figures 1-5As shown, this utility model proposes a pressure sensor 1 and a pressure detection device.

[0031] In one exemplary embodiment, the pressure sensor 1 includes:

[0032] The base 101 is provided with a sensor head 102 and a medium channel 104.

[0033] A fixing component is disposed on the base 101, and the fixing component includes a chip fixing structure and a terminal fixing structure;

[0034] The chip is mounted in a fixed component through a chip fixing structure;

[0035] Terminal 114, one end of terminal 114 is disposed within the fixing assembly via a terminal fixing structure, and the other end protrudes from the fixing assembly.

[0036] In this embodiment, the base 101 provides an installation environment for the fixing component, allowing the fixing component to be installed on the base 101. The chip is positioned and fixed by the chip fixing structure in the fixing component, and the terminal 114 is positioned and fixed by the terminal fixing structure. Compared with the prior art, the chip fixing structure and terminal fixing structure of this utility model are more compact after fixing the chip and terminal 114 respectively, and the overall size of the pressure sensor 1 is smaller, making it easier to install in narrow environments.

[0037] In an exemplary embodiment, the sensing head 102 is provided with a receiving cavity 1031, which is connected to the medium channel 104.

[0038] In this embodiment, the sensing head 102 is mainly used to sense pressure changes. By opening a accommodating cavity 1031 inside the sensing head 102, a structure similar to a sensing diaphragm is formed on the sidewall of the sensing head 102. At the same time, by setting the accommodating cavity 1031 inside the sensing head 102, the accommodating cavity 1031 is connected to the medium channel 104. When the medium enters the accommodating cavity 1031 of the sensing head 102 through the medium channel 104, the structure similar to a sensing diaphragm formed in the accommodating cavity 1031 will undergo a certain deformation due to the pressure change inside the accommodating cavity 1031. The chip senses the deformation and converts it into an electrical signal for output.

[0039] For example, in this embodiment, the processing method of the sensing head 102 is as follows: a groove is made in one of the side walls of the sensing head 102 to make it communicate with the medium channel 104, and the side wall of the sensing head 102 is made to reach the required thickness so that the side wall of the sensing head 102 can generate corresponding deformation. A sealing block is then welded in the opening direction of the groove to prevent the medium in the accommodating cavity 1031 from leaking into the sensor.

[0040] For example, in this embodiment, the sensing head 102 and the base 101 are integrally formed, and the bottom of the sensing head 102 is provided with a threaded head to facilitate connection with the adapter 2.

[0041] It is worth noting that a sealing ring 105 is provided at the bottom of the base 101 to prevent media leakage after the base 101 is connected to the adapter 2.

[0042] The chip includes a first chip 106 and a second chip 112. The sensor head 102 has a mounting surface 103. The first chip 106 is disposed on the mounting surface 103 and is connected to the second chip 112.

[0043] In this embodiment, the mounting surface 103 is the outer wall of a structure similar to a sensing diaphragm. By placing the first chip 106 on the mounting surface 103, the medium pressure in the accommodating cavity 1031 can be sensed by the deformation of the side wall of the sensing head 102, and converted into an electrical signal for output.

[0044] For example, in this embodiment, the first chip 106 is a glass micro-fused chip, which is fixed on the mounting surface 103 by sintering, thereby ensuring the effective fixation of the first chip 106 and preventing it from falling off.

[0045] It is worth noting that in this embodiment, the glass micro-fusion chip has high precision, non-contact operation, high pressure resistance, and a longer service life.

[0046] It should also be noted that other chips capable of achieving the same function can be used in this embodiment.

[0047] In an exemplary embodiment, the chip fixing structure includes a support frame 108 and a mounting plate 111. The support frame 108 is disposed on the base 101, the mounting plate 111 is disposed on the support frame 108, the second chip 112 is disposed on the mounting plate 111, and a connecting line 110 is provided between the first chip 106 and the second chip 112.

[0048] In this embodiment, the chip fixing structure adopts a support frame 108 and a mounting plate 111. Multiple steps are provided on the top of the base 101. The support frame 108 is installed on one of the steps and is bonded to the base 101 by adhesive. The second chip 112 is set on the mounting plate 111, realizing further conversion of electrical signals. The second chip 112 is electrically connected to the terminal 114, and the second chip 112 can transmit the processed data through the terminal 114.

[0049] For example, in this embodiment, the support frame 108 is cylindrical in shape and has a vertical plane. The mounting plate 111 is L-shaped in shape. The vertical surface of the mounting plate 111 matches the vertical plane on the support frame 108. The horizontal surface of the mounting plate 111 is in contact with the end face of the support frame 108. The horizontal surface is an arc plane, so that its shape is the same as that of the support frame 108, which is beneficial for installation.

[0050] For example, the horizontal surface of the mounting plate 111 is provided with a plurality of positioning holes, which can be connected to the pin header 109 by plugging in, thereby achieving the fixation of the mounting plate 111.

[0051] It is worth noting that in this embodiment, the second chip 112 is an ASIC chip, which has the advantages of small size and high integration, and can realize fast data processing. In this embodiment, the second chip 112 is installed on the vertical surface of the mounting plate 111 by adhesive bonding.

[0052] In an exemplary embodiment, the terminal fixing structure includes a pin header 109 and a positioning frame 113. The pin header 109 is disposed on a support frame 108, the positioning frame 113 is disposed on the support frame 108, and the terminal 114 is fixedly connected to the pin header 109 and extends through the positioning frame 113.

[0053] In this embodiment, the pin header 109 is fixed to the terminal 114 by welding, thus fixing the terminal 114. The positioning bracket 113 is used to enhance the limiting effect on the terminal 114, ensuring the stability of the pressure sensor 1 during use and facilitating stable data transmission.

[0054] For example, in this embodiment, the pin header 109 is fixed to the top of the support frame 108 by in-line injection molding, passes through the mounting plate 111 and is welded to the bottom of the terminal 114.

[0055] For example, at least one terminal 114 is provided, and pins 109 are correspondingly provided with terminals 114. In this embodiment, there are three pins 109 and three terminals 114. Correspondingly, there are also three positioning holes.

[0056] For example, in this embodiment, a limiting hole is provided on the positioning frame 113, and the terminal 114 passes through the limiting hole and its end extends out of the positioning frame 113.

[0057] In one exemplary embodiment, the fixing assembly further includes a housing 107 disposed on the base 101, a chip fixing structure and a terminal fixing structure disposed within the housing 107, a sensor head 102 located within the housing 107, and a positioning frame 113 abutting against the inner top of the housing 107.

[0058] In this embodiment, the housing 107 can isolate the chip and other fixing components from the external environment, thus achieving a protective function. At the same time, after the chip fixing structure and terminal fixing structure are installed, the positioning frame 113 is abutted against the inner top of the housing 107 to achieve a compact structure and reduce the overall size of the pressure sensor 1.

[0059] It is worth noting that in this embodiment, the housing 107 is installed on the step formed on the top of the base 101 by adhesive bonding.

[0060] This utility model also proposes a pressure detection device, which includes the pressure sensor 1 described above.

[0061] In one exemplary embodiment, the pressure detection device further includes an adapter 2 connected to the pressure sensor 1. The adapter 2 includes a connector end 201, a connecting pipe 202, and a medium end 203 arranged sequentially. The medium end 203 is used to introduce a medium, and the connector end 201 is detachably connected to the pressure sensor 1. The medium end 203 is connected to the pressure medium, and the pressure medium can ultimately enter the medium channel 104 and the accommodating cavity 1031 from the connector end 201 through the medium end 203 and the connecting pipe 202, thereby realizing pressure detection through the chip.

[0062] For example, the connecting pipe is a flexible tube, which can be made of metal or plastic. The length of the connecting pipe 202 can be determined according to the installation position of the pressure sensor 1.

[0063] It is worth noting that existing pressure sensors generally use an interference fit to ensure the load-bearing capacity and sealing at the interface. This type of installation often requires a destructive method to remove the sensor from the medium container later. When the sensor malfunctions during use, it cannot be replaced. However, in this application, the medium end is connected to the medium container by an interference fit. At the same time, the connector end is connected to the pressure sensor 1 by a thread and is fixed and sealed with a sealing ring 105. When the pressure sensor 1 needs to be replaced, there is no need to damage the medium container. The pressure sensor 1 can be removed and replaced simply by rotating it.

[0064] In summary, compared with the prior art, the chip fixing structure and terminal fixing structure of this utility model are more compact after fixing the chip and terminal 114 respectively, and the overall size of the pressure sensor 1 is smaller, realizing miniaturization and facilitating installation in narrow environments.

[0065] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in this utility model should still be covered by the claims of this utility model.
