Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of welding production and processing technology, specifically, it relates to a housing structure and a gas sensor. Background Technology

[0002] During welding production, high-temperature electric arcs or flames generate large amounts of harmful gases. Long-term exposure can endanger the health of operators and may lead to fire or explosion risks. Existing gas sensors have the following shortcomings: the sensor housing is easily damaged by welding spatter and high-temperature radiation; the traditional structure results in a long gas diffusion path, leading to delayed detection; and sensor replacement or calibration requires disassembling the equipment, affecting production efficiency.

[0003] Utility model patent CN220525780U relates to the field of gas sensor packaging technology, specifically a shock-resistant gas sensor packaging structure. The structure includes a housing with a rotatable cover and a placement tray inside. It also includes a limiting mechanism disposed on the housing, which, in conjunction with the placement tray, places and positions the gas sensor; and a spring-loaded mechanism disposed on the limiting mechanism, which controls the limiting mechanism to release the gas sensor from its position. This shock-resistant gas sensor packaging structure differs from existing technologies. When using it, operators simply place the gas sensor using the limiting mechanism in conjunction with the placement tray, and then use the spring-loaded mechanism to control the limiting mechanism to release the gas sensor from its position. The overall process is simple and convenient for installing and removing the gas sensor.

[0004] However, the aforementioned patent still has the following problems: As a key component of the packaging structure, the spring-loaded structure is susceptible to metal fatigue after prolonged use. Damage to the spring-loaded structure components will affect the overall device's ability to secure the gas sensor, making the sensor prone to displacement during welding processes under vibration and impact, and even collisions with the packaging structure, resulting in sensor damage. This not only increases equipment maintenance costs but may also affect the safety and stability of welding production. In practical use, workers may need to frequently change the gas sensor at different welding stations or on different equipment, thus placing high demands on the quick-release installation performance of the packaging structure.

[0005] In view of this, this utility model is hereby proposed. Utility Model Content

[0041] Working principle: The fixed circular plate 11 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the first housing 10. Two sets of support plates 12 are installed at the bottom of the first housing 10. The support plates 12 have limiting holes 13 inside, and nails 14 are pre-placed in the limiting holes 13. During installation, the bottom of the support plate 12 is in close contact with the table surface. By hammering the nails 14, they are embedded into the limiting holes 13 and the table surface, thus fixing the housing to the table surface. The second fixed circular plate 22 is fixed to the bottom inner side of the first housing 10. It has three sets of first threaded grooves 23 inside. The third fixed circular plate 24 is placed on top of the second fixed circular plate 22. It has three sets of third threaded sleeves 25 inside. Bolt 26 is screwed sequentially onto the third threaded sleeve 25 and the first threaded groove 23 to achieve a tight connection between the second fixed circular plate 22 and the third fixed circular plate 24. The third fixed circular plate 24 has a first snap-fit ​​groove 30 inside, with four sets of second threaded grooves 31 at the bottom. The first snap-fit ​​plate 32 snaps into the first snap-fit ​​groove 30 and has four sets of third threaded grooves 33 inside. The second limit bolt 34 is screwed sequentially onto the third threaded groove 33 and the second threaded groove 31 to fix the first snap-fit ​​plate 32 and the third fixed circular plate 24. The top of the first housing 10 has a second threaded sleeve 21, and the sealing cover 18 has a first threaded sleeve 25 inside. A threaded sleeve 19 and a rotating sealing cap 18 are used to screw the first threaded sleeve 19 onto the outside of the second threaded sleeve 21, achieving a seal at the top of the housing. An explosion-proof glass plate 20 is provided on the top of the sealing cap 18 for observing the status of the gas sensor 35. Three sets of openings are formed on the outer wall of the first housing 10, respectively housing the first inlet pipe 15, the first outlet pipe 16, and the second inlet pipe 17. The first inlet pipe 15, the first outlet pipe 16, and the second inlet pipe 17 are connected to the gas sensor 35's inlet 36, outlet 37, and third gas delivery pipe 29 via the first gas delivery pipe 27 and the second gas delivery pipe 28. The gas sensor 35 is fixedly installed inside the housing to realize the input and output of gas. It receives and discharges gas through the inlet 36 and outlet 37. The gas enters the gas sensor 35 through the first inlet pipe 15 and the first gas delivery pipe 27. After detection, it is discharged through the second gas delivery pipe 28 and the first outlet pipe 16. Some gas can circulate inside the housing through the second inlet pipe 17 and the third gas delivery pipe 29 to realize gas monitoring in specific environments. The detection accuracy and stability of the gas sensor 35 are optimized through internal circuits and algorithms to ensure accurate operation in harsh environments such as high temperature and high humidity.
