[0002] An automotive oxygen sensor is a sensor used to detect the oxygen concentration in automotive exhaust gases. It is commonly used in engine control systems to help adjust the fuel-air mixture ratio, optimize engine efficiency, and reduce emissions. The built-in ceramic component of the oxygen sensor is a key component, usually made of barium titanate ceramic. The oxygen sensor relies on the ceramic component to carry out an electrochemical reaction to measure the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas.
[0003] The built-in ceramic component of an oxygen sensor is usually installed inside a metal housing. The ceramic component is fixed to the metal housing of the sensor using high-temperature resistant sealant. Over time, the sealant will degrade in performance due to the natural degradation and volatilization of its molecular structure, losing its original adhesiveness. The ceramic component will then separate from the metal housing, affecting subsequent electrochemical reactions. To address this, a high-durability built-in ceramic component for an automotive oxygen sensor was designed. Summary of the Invention

[0012] 1. This utility model incorporates a wear-resistant layer, an anti-deformation layer, a reinforcing cover, screws, anti-slip discs, and a suction cup. Multiple binding holes are used to fix the wire harness terminals. The wear-resistant layer is made of tungsten alloy, which is sprayed onto the inner surface of the ceramic part to enhance its wear resistance. Nickel alloy is sprayed onto the outer surface of the ceramic part through a thermal spraying process to form an anti-deformation layer.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0020] Please refer to Figures 1-4. This utility model provides a technical solution for a built-in ceramic component of a high-durability automotive oxygen sensor:
[0021] Example 1:
[0022] As shown in Figures 1-3, a built-in ceramic component for a high-durability automotive oxygen sensor includes a base 1 and a ceramic component 2. The ceramic component 2 is positioned on top of the base 1. Multiple binding holes 5 are provided at the bottom of the interior of the ceramic component 2. The inner surface of the ceramic component 2 is coated with a wear-resistant layer 3, and the outer surface of the ceramic component 2 is coated with an anti-deformation layer 4. A reinforcing cover 6 is fixedly fitted to one end of the base 1. Horizontal blocks 8 are provided on both sides of the reinforcing cover 6, and reinforcing blocks 7 are provided on the top of each of the two horizontal blocks 8. Screws 9 are threadedly connected to the interior of each of the two horizontal blocks 8, and suction cups 11 are provided at one end of each of the two screws 9. Nickel alloy is sprayed onto the outer surface of the ceramic component 2 through a thermal spraying process to form an anti-deformation layer 4. The nickel alloy has strength and heat resistance, which improves the resistance of the ceramic component 2 to external forces. By rotating the two anti-slip discs 10 clockwise in sequence, the two screws 9 move downwards, and the suction cups 11 move downwards accordingly. The bottom surface of the suction cups 11 adheres to the smooth mounting surface, thus securely mounting the base 1 onto the mounting surface.
[0023] Example 2:
[0024] Based on Embodiment 1, as shown in Figures 1 and 4, the tops of the two suction cups 11 are fixedly connected to one end of the two screws 9 respectively. The other end of each screw 9 is provided with an anti-slip plate 10. The tops of the two reinforcing blocks 7 are provided with limiting strips 15. The tops of the reinforcing cover 6 are provided with second recessed holes 13 on both sides. By setting the reinforcing blocks 7, the horizontal blocks 8, the second recessed holes 13 and the limiting strips 15, one side of the horizontal blocks 8 is in contact with one side of the reinforcing cover 6. At this time, the bottom surface of the reinforcing blocks 7 is in contact with the top of the reinforcing cover 6. Then, one end of the limiting strip 15 is embedded into the inside of the first recessed hole 12 and the second recessed hole 13. The three are threaded together, so that the reinforcing cover 6 and the horizontal blocks 8 can be limited and fixed.
[0025] Working Principle: An automotive oxygen sensor is a sensor used to detect the oxygen concentration in automotive exhaust gases. It is commonly used in engine control systems to help adjust the fuel-air mixture ratio, optimize engine efficiency, and reduce emissions. The built-in ceramic component of the oxygen sensor is a key component, typically made of barium titanate ceramic. The oxygen sensor relies on the ceramic component to conduct an electrochemical reaction to measure the oxygen concentration in the exhaust. The built-in ceramic component is usually installed inside a metal housing. The ceramic component 2 is fixed to the metal housing of the sensor using high-temperature resistant sealant. Over time, the sealant will degrade in performance due to the natural degradation and volatilization of its molecular structure, losing its original adhesiveness. The ceramic component 2 will then separate from the metal housing, affecting subsequent electrochemical reactions. Therefore, a high-durability built-in ceramic component for the automotive oxygen sensor is designed. Multiple binding holes 5 are used to fix the wiring harness terminals, and the wear-resistant layer 3 is made of tungsten alloy. Tungsten alloy powder is sprayed onto the inner surface of ceramic part 2 to enhance its wear resistance. Nickel alloy is sprayed onto the outer surface of ceramic part 2 through thermal spraying to form an anti-deformation layer 4. Nickel alloy has strength and heat resistance, which improves the strength of ceramic part 2 against external forces. The two anti-slip discs 10 are rotated clockwise in sequence, which drives the two screws 9 to move downwards. The suction cup 11 moves downwards as well. The bottom surface of the suction cup 11 adheres to the smooth mounting surface, so that the base 1 can be firmly installed on the mounting surface. One side of the horizontal block 8 is attached to one side of the reinforcing cover 6. At this time, the bottom surface of the reinforcing block 7 is in contact with the top of the reinforcing cover 6. Then, one end of the limiting strip 15 is embedded into the first concave hole 12 and the second concave hole 13. The three are threaded together to limit and fix the reinforcing cover 6 and the horizontal block 8. This structure facilitates the disassembly of the reinforcing cover 6 and the horizontal block 8, and also allows the suction cup 11 to be replaced.
