The circuit part is electrically connected with the extraction electrode of the structure part. An open measuring chamber is formed between the gas inlet pipe, the lower chamber and the diaphragm. A closed reference chamber is formed between the diaphragm, the upper chamber, the upper shell, the extraction electrode and the air pipe. Gas is introduced into the measuring chamber through the gas inlet pipe. The diaphragm is deformed due to the pressure of the gas, the distance between the diaphragm and the fixed electrode plate is changed, and the capacitance between the diaphragm and the fixed electrode plate is changed.

[0041] Please refer to FIG. 1-4, one of the embodiments of the present application provides a differential pressure type capacitive diaphragm vacuum gauge, comprising a shell 1, a fixed electrode plate 2 and a diaphragm 3, the shell 1 is provided with an air inlet pipe 16 and an air charging pipe 15; the fixed electrode plate 2 is arranged in the interior of the shell 1, the fixed electrode plate 2 is provided with an outgoing electrode 21 for electrical connection with a detection circuit; the diaphragm 3 is arranged in the interior of the shell 1 and separates the interior of the shell 1 into an upper chamber and a lower chamber, the fixed electrode plate 2 is located in the upper chamber, and a preset interval is arranged between the fixed electrode plate 2 and the diaphragm 3; wherein the lower chamber is in communication with the air inlet pipe 16, and the lower chamber and the air inlet pipe 16 jointly form an open measurement chamber 12, the air charging pipe 15 is in communication with the upper chamber, and the air charging pipe 15 and the upper chamber jointly form a closed reference chamber 11, a preset volume of gas is arranged in the closed reference chamber 11 through the air charging pipe 15, so that the closed reference chamber 11 is in a high pressure state of a preset positive pressure.
[0042] The differential pressure type capacitive diaphragm vacuum gauge provided by the present application has the following technical effects: by arranging the diaphragm 3 in the shell 1, and separating the shell 1 into an upper chamber and a lower chamber, and arranging the fixed electrode plate 2 in the upper chamber, and arranging a preset interval between the fixed electrode plate 2 and the diaphragm 3, the air charging pipe 15 of the shell 1 is in communication with the upper chamber to form a closed reference chamber 11, and the air inlet pipe 16 of the shell 1 is in communication with the lower chamber to form an open measurement chamber 12, since a preset volume of gas is arranged in the closed reference chamber 11 through the air charging pipe 15, so that the closed reference chamber 11 is in a high pressure state of a preset positive pressure. It should be understood that at this time, the end of the air charging pipe 15 away from the shell 1 is in a sealed state, so that the air charging pipe 15 and the upper chamber jointly form a closed reference chamber 11.
[0043] During operation, when gas is introduced into the open measuring chamber 12 through the inlet pipe 16, the diaphragm 3 deforms due to the gas pressure, thereby changing the distance between the diaphragm 3 and the fixed electrode 2, and causing a change in the capacitance between them. The capacitance is then measured using electrical methods, and the relationship between the capacitance and the gas pressure is obtained through calibration, thereby obtaining the gas pressure and achieving accurate measurement of the gas pressure.
[0044] Meanwhile, the sealed reference chamber 11 is filled with gas to a certain pressure through the gas filling tube 15, so that the reference chamber is in a constant high pressure state. Compared with the high vacuum process, the gas filling process is simpler. In addition, for low-range capacitor film vacuum gauges, the diaphragm 3 does not need to be too thin when using this differential pressure capacitor film vacuum gauge, which reduces the processing difficulty of the diaphragm 3 material and is also conducive to the welding of the diaphragm 3 to the shell 1 (lower chamber and upper chamber), thus solving the problem of difficult product preparation.
[0045] Please refer to Figures 1-2. In one embodiment, when the inflation port of the inflation tube 15 is set in a sealed state, the sealed reference chamber 11 is in a high-pressure state with a preset positive pressure.
[0046] In this embodiment, by setting the air inlet of the air inlet of the air inlet of the air inlet tube 15 to be in a sealed state, the sealed reference chamber 11 is placed in a high-pressure state with a preset positive pressure, thereby ensuring the pressure stability in the sealed reference chamber 11 during operation and improving the measurement accuracy and stability.
[0047] Please refer to Figures 1-2. In one embodiment, the end of the inflation tube 15 away from the upper chamber is detachably connected to a sealing cap 151; wherein the sealing cap 151 can be close to or away from the upper chamber along the length of the inflation tube 15; wherein the sealing cap 151 is threadedly connected to or sleeved with the inflation tube 15.
[0048] Since the sealing cover 151 can move closer to or further away from the upper chamber along the length of the inflation tube 15, as the sealing cover 151 moves closer to the upper chamber along the length of the inflation tube 15, it gradually approaches the upper shell 1, causing the volume of the sealed reference chamber 11 to decrease. Under the condition that the internal gas mass remains unchanged, the gas will squeeze the electrode, thereby generating pressure.
[0049] In one embodiment, the sealing cap 151 has a U-shaped cross-section, and the inner ring of the sealing cap 151 forms a third groove. The inner wall of the third groove is provided with an internal thread, and the outer wall of the inflation tube 15 is provided with an external thread. The sealing cap 151 is threadedly connected to the inflation tube 15, and the third groove communicates with the upper chamber. As the sealing cap 151 moves along the direction of the inflation tube 15, the volume of the third groove gradually decreases.
[0050] In the embodiment, the sealing cover 151 is sealedly installed on the inflation port of the inflation pipe 15. The sealing cover 151 can be a screw cap. The inflation pipe 15 is provided with an external thread. The screw cap is in sealing connection with the external thread of the inflation pipe 15 through thread connection. The closed reference chamber 11 is sealedly closed through thread connection. The closed reference chamber 11 gradually approaches the upper shell 13 with the thread movement of the sealing cover 151, so that the volume of the closed reference chamber 11 is reduced. In the case that the internal gas mass is unchanged, the gas will press the electrode, and then pressure is generated.
[0051] In the embodiment, the sealing cover 151 is sealedly installed on the inflation port of the inflation pipe 15. The sealing cover 151 can be a screw cap. The inflation pipe 15 is provided with an external thread. The screw cap is in sealing connection with the external thread of the inflation pipe 15 through thread connection. The closed reference chamber 11 is sealedly closed through thread connection. The closed reference chamber 11 gradually approaches the upper shell 13 with the thread movement of the sealing cover 151, so that the volume of the closed reference chamber 11 is reduced. In the case that the internal gas mass is unchanged, the gas will press the electrode, and then pressure is generated.
[0052] According to needs, the screw cap is further provided with an inner rubber plug. The inner rubber plug is in the shape of a cylinder or an inverted cone. The inner rubber plug is sleeved on the inflation port of the inflation pipe 15 and is in interference fit with the inflation pipe 15, so as to enhance the sealing property. When the sealing cover 151 moves and gradually approaches the upper shell 13, the volume of the closed reference chamber 11 is further reduced. In the case that the internal gas mass is unchanged, the gas will press the electrode, and then pressure is generated.
[0053] According to needs, the sealing cover 151 can also be a sealing cover. The sealing cover is sleeved on the inflation pipe 15. The closed reference chamber 11 is sealedly closed through sleeving. The closed reference chamber 11 gradually approaches the upper shell 13 with the downward movement of the sealing cover 151, so that the volume of the closed reference chamber 11 is reduced. In the case that the internal gas mass is unchanged, the gas will press the electrode, and then pressure is generated.

[0069] In one of the embodiments, the diaphragm 3 includes a nickel-chromium alloy diaphragm 3, and the nickel content in the nickel-chromium alloy diaphragm 3 is not less than 70%.
[0070] In the embodiment, since the nickel-chromium alloy diaphragm 3 has high strength and hardness, good wear resistance, and is not easy to deform, and the nickel-chromium alloy has good corrosion resistance and is not easy to be eroded by chemicals, at the same time, the nickel-chromium alloy diaphragm 3, and the nickel-chromium alloy is an excellent conductive material, and the nickel-chromium alloy has good weldability. Therefore, by adopting the nickel-chromium alloy diaphragm 3, and the nickel content in the nickel-chromium alloy diaphragm 3 is not less than 70%, the diaphragm 3 can have good stability in a high-pressure environment, can maintain the accuracy of measurement for a long time, and can work stably for a long time in a harsh environment (such as high temperature) without being easy to soften or oxidize. At the same time, it can provide good electrical connection, ensure the accuracy of the measurement signal, and facilitate connection and fixation with other components.
