[0022] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a temperature sensor bracket 100 has a receiving groove 110 for placing a temperature sensor element 200. The shape, size, and depth of the receiving groove 110 are precisely calculated to match the temperature sensor element 200, ensuring a tight and stable placement of the temperature sensor element 200. To enhance the fixing effect of the temperature sensor element 200 and improve its stability and reliability, the receiving groove 110 is filled with potting compound 300 using a potting process. The potting compound 300 covers and fixes the temperature sensor element 200. The potting compound 300 not only has good flowability and adhesion, but also completely covers and tightly fixes the temperature sensor element 200, effectively preventing it from moving or loosening during operation. Furthermore, it possesses excellent insulation and moisture-proof properties, protecting the temperature sensor element 200 from interference and damage from the external environment.

[0023] In terms of the potting process, the temperature sensor element 200 is first placed in the receiving groove 110 according to the predetermined position. Then, epoxy resin potting compound 300 or silicone rubber potting compound 300 is injected into the receiving groove 110 using potting equipment until the potting compound 300 completely covers and encapsulates the temperature sensor element 200. After the potting compound 300 cures, a solid protective layer is formed, firmly fixing the temperature sensor element 200 to the bracket. During the potting process, the amount and speed of potting must be strictly controlled to avoid air bubbles or insufficient potting, ensuring potting quality. After the above steps, the assembly and manufacturing of the temperature sensor bracket are completed. It is then installed in the corresponding position on the rice cooker and put into use, providing stable and accurate support for temperature monitoring of the rice cooker, ensuring the efficient and safe operation of the rice cooker.

[0024] The temperature sensor bracket 100 of this application embodiment has significant advantages such as reasonable structural design, stable fixing effect, and excellent protection performance. Furthermore, the installation method is simple and quick; the temperature sensor element 200 is simply placed into the corresponding receiving groove 110 according to the specified position, and then a suitable amount of potting compound 300 is injected for fixation. By employing the receiving groove 110 and the potting process, the temperature sensor bracket 100 exhibits excellent performance and reliability in supporting and fixing the temperature sensor element 200, achieving stable fixation and effective protection of the temperature sensor element 200, and providing strong support for the normal operation of the temperature sensor.

[0025] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 and Figure 2In this embodiment, the receiving slot 110 is designed with greater detail and flexibility, cleverly dividing it into two independent parts: a first groove 111 and a second groove 112. This spaced design allows the different components of the temperature sensor element 200 to be properly housed. The temperature sensor element 200 includes a thermistor 210 and a fuse 220. The thermistor 210, as the core component of the temperature sensor element 200, is precisely positioned in the first groove 111 to ensure accurate and sensitive sensing of temperature changes. The fuse 220, as a safety protection element, is positioned in the second groove 112 to cut off the circuit when necessary, preventing safety accidents caused by excessive temperature. This ensures that the two do not interfere with each other and that their respective functions are fully utilized. This segmented design not only improves the utilization rate of the temperature sensor bracket 100 but also makes the layout of the entire temperature sensor system more reasonable and compact.

[0026] In one embodiment, after rigorous screening and testing, epoxy resin potting compound 300 is preferred for this embodiment. In other embodiments, high-performance materials such as silicone rubber can also be used. These materials not only possess good flowability and adhesion, enabling them to tightly encapsulate the temperature sensor element 200, but also exhibit excellent insulation, moisture resistance, processability, and curing characteristics. During the potting process, these materials can quickly fill the receiving groove 110 and tightly encapsulate the temperature sensor element 200, forming a robust protective layer. Furthermore, after curing, these materials maintain stable performance over a long period, providing durable and reliable protection for the temperature sensor element 200.

[0027] In one embodiment, ceramic is preferred as the material for the bracket, while plastic can be used in other embodiments. These materials possess excellent mechanical properties and thermal stability, as well as good corrosion resistance and insulation. During long-term use, these materials maintain stable performance, providing robust support and fixation for the temperature sensor bracket 100. Furthermore, these materials offer good processing performance and cost-effectiveness, making the production and manufacturing of the temperature sensor bracket 100 more economical and efficient.

[0028] It should also be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments of this utility model and the features therein can be combined with each other to obtain new embodiments.

[0029] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. The scope of protection of the present utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims. Although the present utility model has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications or alterations to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present utility model. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the scope of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
