Abstract

The present disclosure provides a gas sensor including a shell with a receiving cavity, an acoustic sensor, a partition plate and a flexible film accommodated in the receiving cavity. The partition plate and the flexible film jointly divide the receiving cavity into a first cavity and a second cavity, the first cavity is a sealed cavity formed by the joint enclosure of the flexible film, the partition plate, the side wall and the substrate. The acoustic sensor is located in the first cavity, the infrared transmitter is located in the second cavity. Compared with the related art, the gas sensor disclosed by the present disclosure could improve the sensitivity of the product.

Claims (11)

1 . A gas sensor, including:

a shell with a receiving cavity, comprising a cover, a substrate spaced apart from the cover, and a side wall located between the cover and the substrate, the cover, the substrate, and the side wall jointly enclosing to form the receiving cavity, and

an infrared transmitter, an acoustic sensor, a partition plate and a flexible film accommodated in the receiving cavity, wherein

the partition plate is connected with the substrate and the side wall, the flexible film is located between the cover and the side wall, the flexible film covers the side wall and the partition plate, the partition plate and the flexible film jointly divide the receiving cavity into a first cavity and a second cavity, the first cavity is a sealed cavity formed by the joint enclosure of the flexible film, the partition plate, the side wall and the substrate, the acoustic sensor is located in the first cavity, the infrared transmitter is located in the second cavity, the shell comprises a vent hole communicating with the outside and the second cavity, the flexible film, the first cavity and the second cavity form a resonant system, an intrinsic frequency of the resonant system is the same as a modulation frequency of the infrared transmitter.

2 . The gas sensor as described in claim 1 , wherein the cover comprises a top plate, a connecting portion bending and extending from the top plate to the side wall, and a fixing portion bending and extending from the connecting portion to the outside, the fixing portion is fixed with an upper surface of the side wall.

3 . The gas sensor as described in claim 2 , wherein the fixing portion is smaller than the upper surface of the side wall, one end of the flexible film is connected to the upper surface of the side wall and the other end of the flexible film is connected to the partition plate, the flexible film is located at an internal side of the fixing portion.

4 . The gas sensor as described in claim 1 , wherein further comprises a weight connected with the flexible film.

5 . The gas sensor as described in claim 4 , wherein the weight is located in the first cavity.

6 . The gas sensor as described in claim 1 , wherein the side wall comprises two first side walls located on long-axis sides and two second side walls located on short-axis sides, the partition plate is connected with the two first side walls opposite to each other.

7 . The gas sensor as described in claim 6 , wherein the partition plate and the side wall are configured as an integrated structure.

8 . The gas sensor as described in claim 1 , wherein the acoustic sensor and the infrared transmitter are fixed with the substrate.
