摘要:
An oxygen concentration sensor having excellent sealing performance between a lead wire and a lead wire insertion hole includes a sensor element disposed insertedly into a housing, protective covers disposed at an end portion of the housing, lead wires inserted into the protective covers, and an elastic insulating member disposed inside the protective covers and having a lead wire insertion hole for inserting the lead wires. The lead wire insertion hole in the elastic insulating member has a rib protruding in the radial direction. The elastic insulating member is caulked and fixed by the protective covers.

An air-fuel ratio sensor comprises an oxygen concentration sensing element, a housing for holding this oxygen concentration sensing element, and protecting covers with gas holes. The protecting covers comprises an inside cover disposed closely to the oxygen concentration sensing element, and an outside cover surrounding the outside cover. Flange-like peripheral portions, formed on the protecting covers, are fixed to the abutting face of the housing by a caulking operation. These flange-like peripheral portions are disposed alternately along a same closed curve around the oxygen concentration sensing element, so that they are not overlapped with each other.

An oxygen sensor element is inserted and fixed in a housing. A base body is provided at an end of the housing. The base body is made of a resin. The base body has a flange at an end. The housing has a caulking portion which is deformable when received a pressing force acting in a direction parallel to an axis of the oxygen sensor. By deforming the caulking portion, the flange is tightly connected with the caulking portion.

An oxygen concentration detector comprises a solid electrolyte 21, a sensing element 2 which consists of the solid electrolyte 21 coated on the surface with an outer electrode 23, a heater 3 provided inside the solid electrolyte 21, and a protecting cover 16 which protects the sensing element 2. The protecting cover 16 has two levels of openings 161, 162, the outer electrode 23 is constructed within the range defined by the length of the heat-generating part 31 of the heater 3, and the relationship between the length L1 of the heat-generating part 31 and the distance between the openings L2 of the two levels of openings 161, 162 in the axial direction is such that L1/L2=0.9 to 1.3.
摘要:
An oxygen sensor 3 having a heater 2 capable of providing an improved temperature increasing characteristic, while maintaining an increased amount of introduced air and a high production efficiency. The sensor 3 includes a sensor element 1 having an air chamber 100 in which a heater 2 is arranged. The heater 2 has a rectangular cross sectional shape. In order to produce the heater 2, onto a green ceramic sheet, a heater of a predetermined pattern including a plurality of heater sections is printed. Then, to the printed sheet, different ceramic green sheets are applied so as to obtain a laminated body. The laminated body is subjected to a cutting so as to produce an intermediate body in which a heater section is included. The intermediate body is subjected to a firing to obtain a completed heater.

An improved structure of a gas sensor is provided. The gas sensor includes a hollow housing in which a gas sensing element is disposed, a protective cover installed on an end of the housing, a metallic cover installed on the other end of the housing, and an insulator in which end portions of leads connecting with the gas sensing element are disposed. The insulator is retained at a flange thereof in the housing elastically using a washer. The protective cover is welded at an end thereof to the whole circumference of the end of the housing.

An improved structure of a gas sensor is provided which includes a hollow housing and a sensing element. The sensing element has a flange and is disposed within the housing in engagement of the flange with an inner wall of the housing. An insulating powder is packed in a chamber defined by the inner wall of the housing, the flange and an outer wall of the sensing element to provide an air-tight seal between an air chamber to which one end of the sensing element is exposed and a gas chamber to which the other end of the sensing element is exposed. The air-tight seal has the structure designed to minimize an air leakage and breakage of the sensing element when installed in the housing.
摘要:
A gas sensor has a housing integrally formed with a caulked fixation portion. A detection element is inserted into the housing and fixed therein by caulking the caulked fixation portion via a sealing member such as a metallic ring. The caulked fixation portion is composed of a caulked portion and a buckling portion, and satisfies dimensional relationships of T1

An improved structure of a gas sensor is provided. The gas sensor includes a gas sensitive element, a holder retaining therein the gas sensitive element, and a protective cover installed on the holder. The protective cover has a flange which is retained in a groove formed in the holder by crimping an outer extension formed on the holder adjacent the groove. The geometries of the groove in the holder and the flange of the protective cover are so determined as to provide for ease of installation of the protective cover on the holder, firm engagement of the protective cover with the groove of the holder, and ease of machining of the groove of the holder.
