[0033] REFERENCE Figures 1-6The embodiment provides a split type sensor suitable for high temperature environment, which comprises a high temperature insensitive component 1, a high temperature sensitive component 2 and a signal line 3 connected between the high temperature insensitive component 1 and the high temperature sensitive component 2; the high temperature sensitive component 2 is not directly contacted with the high temperature environment as a data transmission part, and the high temperature insensitive component 1 is directly contacted with the high temperature environment as a data acquisition part. In this way, the vibration data can be collected, and the damage of the sensor caused by exposure of the whole sensor to the high temperature environment can be avoided.

[0034] The high temperature insensitive component 1 is installed on the pipe wall of the hot water pipeline, vibration data of the hot water pipeline are collected by the built-in piezoelectric sensor 11 and transmitted to the high temperature sensitive component 2 through the signal line 3.

[0035] The high temperature sensitive component 2 supplies power to the high temperature insensitive component 1 through the signal line 3, and establishes a data connection between the high temperature sensitive component 2 and a cloud server, so as to send the vibration data collected by the high temperature insensitive component 1. In this way, the vibration sensor for monitoring the underground hot water pipeline leakage can be realized, and the underground hot water pipeline leakage can be detected in real time and accurately.

[0036] In order to realize the function of data collection, the piezoelectric sensor 11 needs to be arranged in the high temperature insensitive component 1, therefore the high temperature insensitive component 1 comprises a shell 12, a base 13, a pressing block 14, the piezoelectric sensor 11, a positive electrode sheet 15 and a negative electrode sheet 16; the shell 12 and the base 13 are combined to form a cavity for accommodating the piezoelectric sensor 11, the positive electrode sheet 15, the negative electrode sheet 16 and the pressing block 14; the positive electrode sheet 15 and the negative electrode sheet 16 are respectively electrically connected with the signal line 3 through the pressing block 14. In this way, the electrical connection between the piezoelectric sensor 11 and the pressing block 14 is realized, after the pipeline vibration is conducted into the sensor, the piezoelectric sensor 11 is pressed to generate electric charge, and the electric charge is collected by the positive electrode sheet 15 and the negative electrode sheet 16 and transmitted to the circuit board of the high temperature sensitive component 2 through the signal line for processing.

[0037] In the embodiment, the piezoelectric sensor 11 is two and stacked; the positive electrode sheet 15 is arranged between the two piezoelectric sensors 11, and the negative electrode sheet 16 is arranged on the upper surface of the upper piezoelectric sensor 11. The negative electrode of the lower piezoelectric sensor 11 is in conduction with the negative electrode of the upper piezoelectric sensor 11 through the base 13, the shell 12 and other metal materials. This structure can realize the collection of the pipeline vibration by two piezoelectric sensors 11.

[0038] In order to fix the piezoelectric sensor 11, the piezoelectric sensor 11 is clamped between the pressing block 14 and the base 13. Specifically, the pressing block 14 is provided with a passage 141 through which a bolt 17 passes, the piezoelectric sensor 11, the positive electrode sheet 15 and the negative electrode sheet 16 are provided with a clearance opening at a position corresponding to the passage 141, and the base 13 is provided with a threaded hole at a position corresponding to the clearance opening. In this way, the bolt 17 can pass through the passage 141 and be connected with the threaded hole through the clearance opening, and finally fix the pressing block 14 and the base 13, so as to clamp the piezoelectric sensor 11 between the pressing block 14 and the base 13.

[0039] In addition, the connection strength between the pressing block 14 and the base 13 needs to be controlled, so as to avoid that the gap between the control panel and the base 13 is too small, causing too much extrusion force on the piezoelectric sensor 11 and resulting in damage to the piezoelectric sensor 11. The inner wall of the passage 141 extends a convex edge 142 radially inward, and when the bolt 17 is connected with the threaded hole, the nut of the bolt 177 abuts against the convex edge 142. By the convex edge 142, the depth of the bolt 17 extending into the threaded hole can be limited, so as to avoid the above-mentioned situation.

[0040] The side of the base 13 facing the pressing block 14 is provided with a recessed cavity for placing the piezoelectric sensor 11, the positive electrode sheet 15 and the negative electrode sheet 16, and the bottom of the recessed cavity is provided with the threaded hole. By the design of the recessed cavity, the positions of the piezoelectric sensor 11, the positive electrode sheet 15 and the negative electrode sheet 16 can be positioned, so that the positions of the piezoelectric sensor 11, the positive electrode sheet 15 and the negative electrode sheet 16 can be automatically aligned with the threaded hole, without the need for excessive correction.

[0041] In order to realize the installation of the high-temperature insensitive component 1 on the pipe wall of the hot water pipeline, the base 13 is provided with a magnet for adsorbing the high-temperature insensitive component 1 on the pipe wall of the hot water pipeline.

[0042] In order to realize the power supply of the high-temperature insensitive component 1 by the high-temperature sensitive component 2 through the signal line 3, the high-temperature sensitive component 2 is provided with a built-in battery 21 and a circuit board.

[0043] Finally, the high-temperature insensitive component 1 and the high-temperature sensitive component 2 are stably connected through a signal line 3, two ends of the signal line 3 are respectively provided with sealing plugs 31 of the high-temperature insensitive component 1 and the high-temperature sensitive component 2; the sealing plug 31 has an insertion part 311 inserted into the high-temperature insensitive component 1 and the high-temperature sensitive component 2, and a connecting part 312 inserted into the signal line 3; the insertion part 311 is provided with an annular groove 3111 along the circumference, the high-temperature insensitive component 1 and the high-temperature sensitive component 2 are respectively provided with flanges 18, 22 matched with the annular groove 3111, when the insertion part 311 is inserted into the high-temperature insensitive component 1 and the high-temperature sensitive component 2, the flanges 18, 22 are placed in the annular groove 3111 and are respectively limited and matched with the inner walls on both sides of the annular groove 3111.

[0044] The above is only one specific embodiment of the present application, but the design concept of the present application is not limited thereto, and any non-substantial change of the present application using the concept shall be regarded as an infringement of the protection scope of the present application.
