Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of temperature detection technology, and in particular to a fast-response temperature sensing element. Background Technology
[0002] With the continuous advancement of technology, the development of temperature sensors is trending towards higher temperatures, higher precision, and faster response. Sheathed resistance temperature detectors (RTDs) utilize the change in resistance of a substance due to temperature changes to measure temperature. When the resistance changes, the instrument displays the temperature value corresponding to that change.
[0003] In the prior art, the thermally conductive insulating material filled in temperature sensors is usually magnesium oxide (MgO) powder. However, the physical property of magnesium oxide insulating material, with a thermal conductivity of only 29-36 W / (m·K), severely limits the heat conduction efficiency. The design matching between the armor tube diameter and the insulation layer thickness has not yet reached the optimal state. At the same time, defects in the filling process lead to the existence of porosity in the insulation layer, which significantly increases the thermal resistance effect, resulting in a slow response time of the temperature sensor.

[0030] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 This utility model proposes a fast-response temperature sensing element.
[0031] In one exemplary embodiment, the temperature detector includes:
[0032] The outer casing 1 has a first end 104 and a second end 105. The outer casing 1 includes a connecting section 101 and a temperature measuring section 102. A temperature measuring element 4 is provided inside the outer casing 1 and is located inside the temperature measuring section 102.
[0033] The first heat-conducting layer 2 is disposed inside the outer shell 1 and corresponds to the first heat-conducting layer 2 and the connecting section 101;
[0034] The second heat-conducting layer 3 is disposed inside the outer shell 1 and corresponds to the temperature measuring section 102. The thermal conductivity of the second heat-conducting layer 3 is greater than that of the first heat-conducting layer 2.
[0035] In this embodiment, due to the provision of the second heat-conducting layer 3, and the fact that the second heat-conducting layer 3 corresponds to the temperature measuring element 4, the temperature measuring element 4 is located inside the second heat-conducting layer 3. At the same time, the high thermal conductivity of the second heat-conducting layer 3 can quickly transfer heat to the temperature measuring element 4, ensuring that temperature changes can be detected in a timely and accurate manner.
[0036] It is worth noting that since the temperature is measured by the change in resistance of the temperature sensing element 4, the resistance of the temperature sensing element 4 is sensitive to temperature and responds quickly. However, the lack of thermal conductive material leads to slow heat transfer. In contrast, this invention can achieve a fast response by setting a second thermal conductive layer 3, and the resistance of the temperature sensing element changes accurately and quickly with the temperature.
[0037] For example, in this embodiment, the outer shell 1 is made of a metal material with high thermal conductivity, which can carry out efficient heat conduction.
[0038] It is worth noting that in this embodiment, the thermal conductivity of the first heat-conducting layer 2 and the second heat-conducting layer 3 are different. By reasonably designing the thickness and materials of the two, the heat distribution uniformity within the temperature measurement section 102 can be achieved, avoiding the influence of local overheating or overcooling on the temperature measurement results.
[0039] It should also be noted that in this embodiment, the temperature measuring element 4 is a thermal resistance thin film element or a thermal resistance wire element, used for temperature measurement and data transmission.
[0040] In an exemplary embodiment, the first thermally conductive layer 2 is a magnesium oxide layer, and the second thermally conductive layer 3 is a boron nitride layer.
[0041] In this embodiment, since boron nitride has a high thermal conductivity, it can quickly transfer heat to the temperature sensing element 4, ensuring that temperature changes can be detected in a timely manner. At the same time, the high thermal conductivity of boron nitride helps to improve the response speed and accuracy of the temperature sensing element.
[0042] For example, in this embodiment, the outer shell 1 is a hollow tubular structure. The first heat-conducting layer 2 and the second heat-conducting layer 3 are located on the left and right sides of the outer shell 1, respectively. The second heat-conducting layer 3 is set according to the specific length of the temperature measuring element 4. The second heat-conducting layer 3 needs to completely wrap the temperature measuring element 4 in order to achieve rapid heat conduction.
[0043] For example, in this embodiment, the thermal conductivity of boron nitride (BN) is about 300 W / (m·K), and the thermal conductivity of magnesium oxide (MgO) is about 29-36 W / (m·K). Therefore, the selected second thermal conductive layer 3 has higher sensitivity than conventional magnesium oxide thermal conductivity and can achieve a fast response.
[0044] It is worth noting that other materials with better thermal conductivity, such as diamond, can also be used in this embodiment, with a thermal conductivity of approximately 2000 W / (m·K).
[0045] In an exemplary embodiment, the diameter of the temperature measuring section 102 is smaller than the diameter of the connecting section 101.
[0046] In this embodiment, by using a tube shrinking process on the temperature measuring section 102, the diameter of the temperature measuring section 102 is made smaller than the diameter of the connecting section 101, thereby increasing the density of the second heat-conducting layer 3 of the temperature measuring section 102, which can further improve heat conduction and increase the response time of the temperature measuring element 4.
[0047] For example, a transition section is provided between the connecting section 101 and the temperature measuring section 102. One end of the transition section is connected to the connecting section 101, and the other end of the transition section is connected to the temperature measuring section 102. The transition section is also filled with a second thermally conductive layer 3.
[0048] For example, along the extension direction from the connecting section 101 to the temperature measuring section 102, the diameter of the transition section gradually decreases, thereby enabling the function of reducing the diameter from the connecting section 101 to the temperature measuring section 102.
[0049] It is worth noting that in this embodiment, since the diameter of the temperature measuring section 102 is smaller than the diameter of the connecting section 101, it can measure the temperature in narrow areas. Compared with traditional temperature measuring elements, it has more flexible installation positions and a wider range of applications.
[0050] In one exemplary embodiment, the fast-response temperature sensing element further includes a fixing sleeve 6, which is disposed at the first end 104 of the housing 1, and the housing 1 passes through the fixing sleeve 6.
[0051] In this embodiment, the fixing sleeve 6 is used to fix the outer shell 1, and at the same time provides a sealing environment for the first end 104 of the sealing outer shell 1.
[0052] For example, the fixing sleeve 6 has a sealing groove that communicates with the internal space of the connecting section 101. The sealing groove is provided with a sealing element 7 for sealing the first end 104. In this embodiment, the sealing element 7 is epoxy resin filled in the sealing groove, which can protect the lead wire 5 and the solder joint, and also serve as a waterproof function.
[0053] For example, in this embodiment, the second end 105 of the outer casing 1 is provided with a plug 8, which is a metal part. The plug 8 is welded to the second end 105 of the outer casing 1 to seal the second end 105 of the outer casing 1, preventing the second heat-conducting layer 3 from communicating with the external environment and improving the sealing performance of the entire fast-response temperature sensing element. In this embodiment, the second end of the outer casing 1 can also be sealed by providing filler to prevent the second heat-conducting layer 3 from directly communicating with the external environment.
[0054] In an exemplary embodiment, the fast-response temperature sensing element further includes a lead 5 for transmitting an electrical signal. The lead 5 passes through the first thermally conductive layer 2 and the sealing member 7 in sequence and is exposed outside the housing 1. The lead 5 is welded to the temperature sensing element 4.
[0055] In this embodiment, the lead wire 5 enables an external receiving device to receive the resistance output value of the temperature measuring element 4, read the current resistance of the temperature measuring element 4, and then convert it into a corresponding digital signal to realize the temperature detection of the current environment.
[0056] In summary, this invention enables rapid response and accurate and fast detection of the temperature of the component under test.
[0057] 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.
