Turbocharger overheating protection device and method of its manufacture
A housing between mineral-insulated cable and connecting wire in a turbocharger overheating protection device may include the following characteristics: coiled regions of springs ( 10 ) arranged point-symmetrically to each other; or the springs ( 10 ) are not placed on axes; or the coil regions of the coil springs ( 10 ) for cushioning the film resistor are shorter than its substrate length and longer than its substrate width; or the connecting wires of the film resistor are shorter than its substrate length and longer than its substrate width; or the springs are arranged staggered in their longitudinal direction adjacent to each other; or coil springs ( 10 ) are used, in which the coils are located only in one half of the spring ( 10 ) and the coils of one spring are arranged staggered in the longitudinal direction to the coils of the other spring ( 10 ).
1. A turbocharger overheating protection device for prevention of overheatings of a turbocharger of a diesel engine, whose turbocharger withstands a temperature range from −50 to +950° C., the device comprising a metal housing made of a mineral-insulated cable ( 2 ), a receptacle ( 4 ), a sleeve ( 3 ) projecting partly over each of the mineral-insulated cable ( 2 ) and the receptacle ( 4 ), and a temperature measuring element ( 5 ) completely embedded in a ceramic casting ( 13 ) in the receptacle ( 4 ), wherein the temperature measuring element ( 5 ) is equipped with connection wires ( 8 ), wherein the connection wires ( 8 ) are connected via coil springs ( 10 ) with cores of the mineral-insulated cable ( 2 ), and wherein a spacing ( 23 ) of main axes ( 21 ) of coil springs ( 10 ) from each other is at most as large as a diameter ( 22 ) of the coil springs ( 10 ) and wherein the coil springs ( 10 ) are arranged staggered in their longitudinal direction adjacent to each other.
2. The turbocharger overheating protection device ( 1 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the coil springs ( 10 ) are not placed on guide axes.
3. The turbocharger overheating protection device ( 1 ) according to claim 1 , wherein coil regions of the coil springs ( 10 ) for cushioning the temperature measuring element ( 5 ), which have a substrate, are shorter than its substrate length and longer than its substrate width.
4.
