Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、流量計に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来、この種の小型流量計としては、特開平11−230803号公報に開示されたものがある。この流量計は、図8に示したように、流路1を形成したケース本体2の上部に回路基板3を設置し、流路1を画成する壁2aに形成した穴8からマイクロフローセンサ(以下、センサと略称する)4を流路1内に臨ませるとともに、該センサのリード線4aを回路基板3に導いている。また、この流量計では、流路1の入口5に複数枚の網板を間隔をもって配置させた整流部6を備えている。
そして、この流量計は、入口ポート5から流入した流体を整流部6で層流にしてセンサ4に案内し、そこで流量を計測する。
【0003】
上記流量計は、センサ4をブラケット7に保持させ、該ブラケットを壁2aに形成した孔8に挿入させてセンサ4を流路1内に臨ませるとともに、孔8とブラケット7間にOリング9を介在させて、該ブラケットをケース本体2にねじ等によって係止している。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
従来の流量計は以上のように構成されているので、センサ4をキャンパッケージ4aに取付け、このキャンパッケージ4aをブラケット7に取付けることが必要で、ブラケット組立てが大きくなり、細い流路には取付けることができない。流量計自体も大きくなる。また、センサ4は流路1内に臨ませるため、ケース本体2に穴加工が必要で、かつ、ブラケット7の取付けねじ加工も必要になり、構造が複雑化するなどの課題があった。
【0005】
この発明は、上記のような課題を解決するためになされたもので、センサ取付けのための穴加工が不要で小型化が可能な流量計を提供することを目的とする。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
この発明に係る流量計は、回路基板によって流路の一部を画成するとともに、該回路基板の流路面に流体が作用するようにセンサを配設させものである。
【0007】
この発明に係る流量計は、流量計において、流路の一部の壁面に設けた溝の開口周縁に、回路基板を接着したものである。
【0008】
この発明に係る流量計は、溝の開口周縁にリブを形成し、該リブに前記回路基板を載置させたものである。
【0009】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、この発明の実施の一形態を説明する。
実施の形態1.
図1はこの発明に係る流量計の概念的な分解斜視図、図2はその縦断面図、図3は図2におけるA―A線断面図、図4は図2におけるA’−A’線断面図である。
【0010】
この流量計は、図1に示したように、ケース本体10に一端部が回動自在に支持された蓋体11,ケース本体10内に取り付けられる回路基板12等を備えている。
【0011】
ケース本体10は、図1に示したように、上部に上方に開口する凹部13を有している。この凹部13の底壁14には上方に開口する溝15が形成されており、該溝15の両端底面には、下方へ延びる穴16,17が形成されている。これらの穴16,17は、流路18の流路部分18a,18bを構成するもので、穴16,17の下端は、ケース本体10の端面に形成された入口ポート19,出口ポート20にそれぞれ連通されている。
【0012】
上記溝15の中間部底面には図2に示したように、センサ26に向って流路内に突出する弧状面21が形成されている。また、溝15のセンサ26を挟む中間部側壁には図3に示したように、流路内に突出する弧状面22,22が形成されている。そして、溝15の幅cと穴16,17の幅は同一であり、溝15の深さaは穴16,17の間隙bよりも小さく設定されている。また、上記凹部13の底壁14には、溝15の開口縁に沿ってリブ23が形成されている。
【0013】
一方、上記蓋体11は、図1に示したように、一端部の側方に軸11a,11aが形成され、該軸11a,11aを凹部13の側壁24,24に形成した孔24a,24aに挿嵌させることによってケース本体10に対して回動自在に支持されている。この蓋体11の先端には、爪11bが形成されている。
そして、この蓋体11は、爪11bが凹部13の側壁24に形成した切欠き24bに係合することによって凹部13の開口を塞ぐ。
【0014】
上記回路基板12はセラミック基板であり、この回路基板12の上面には、コネクタ25や各種機能をもった素子が搭載されており、回路基板12の下面中央部には、不図示の電路を介してコネクタ25に接続されたマイクロフローセンサ26が接着等によって配設されている。
このマイクロフローセンサ26は、例えばヒータエレメントを挟むように測温抵抗エレメントが配置されたものである。
【0015】
そして、この回路基板12は、凹部13の底壁14に形成した溝15の開口周縁のリブ23に載置され、図2に示したように、接着剤39によって凹部13の底壁14に固定される。この場合、回路基板12がリブ23に接着される際に、余剰の接着剤39は、リブ23によって流路18内へ侵入するのが阻止されるため、回路基板12の周面と凹部13の側壁24との間隙に入り、回路基板12の接着が確実に行なわれる。
このようにして、設置された回路基板12は、溝15の開口を完全に塞ぎ、回路基板12を一壁面として流路18の流路部分18cを構成する。
【0016】
そして、蓋体11で凹部13を覆い、蓋体11の爪11bを側壁24の切欠き24bに係合させることによって回路基板12を本体ケース10内に収容する。
【0017】
また、この流量計では、入口ポート19,出口ポート20がケース本体10に埋め込まれた金属製管体27,27によって形成されている。この金属製管体27は、外周面に環状凹部28が形成され、該凹部を除く周面に網状ローレット29が刻設されている。また、この金属製管体27の内周面には雌ねじ30が形成されている。
さらに、ケース本体10の側面には取り付け孔31が貫設されている。
【0018】
このように構成された流量計は、図1に示したように、入口ポート19の雌ねじ30に例えば、先端に吸着パッド(図示せず)等を備えたホース32のコネクタ33が螺合され、ポート20の雌ねじ30に真空ポンプ(図示せず)等に接続したホース34のコネクタ35が螺合される。
その際に、コネクタ33とケース本体10との間、コネクタ35とケース本体10との間には、ガスケット36,36がそれぞれ介在される。
【0019】
そして、真空ポンプを作動させると、流体例えば空気は入口ポート19から流路18の流路部分18aに吸引され、流路部分18c,18b,出口ポート20を経て真空ポンプに吸引される。
その際、流体は流路部分18aで先ず偏流される。次いで、深さが浅く流路断面積が縮小された流路部分18cで層流とされ、さらに弧状面21,22,22による絞り部によって整流され、センサ26によって例えば、流体の流れ状態が計測される。その計測値はコネクタ25を介して、図示しないコントローラに送られ、そこで流速値、つまり流量が演算される。
例えば、吸引パッドに何も吸引されていない状態では流量が最大になり、吸引パッドに物が吸引されている状態では流量がほぼゼロになることから、吸引パッドが物を吸着しているか否かを判断することができる。
【0020】
なお、この発明の流量計は、上記したような使用態様ばかりでなく、流路18を流れる流体の連続的な流量(流速)変化を検出することもできることは勿論である。
【0021】
また、本実施の形態では、回路基板12をケース本体10の凹部13の底壁14に接着剤26によって接着させた例を示したが、回路基板12を図5から図7に示したように、溝15の開口周縁にリブ23を設けることなく、ガスケット37を介してねじ38によってケース本体10の凹部13の底壁14に取り付けてもよい。
【0022】
【発明の効果】
以上のように、この発明によれば、回路基板によって流路の一壁面を画成するとともに、前記回路基板の流路面にセンサを配設させて構成したので、ブラケット等の取り付け部品を必要とせず、構造が単純になるばかりでなく、センサ取付けのための穴加工が不要になり、それによって流量計のコンパクト化が可能になるという効果がある。
【0023】
この発明によれば、流路の一壁面を画成するケース本体の溝の開口周縁に、回路基板を接着して構成したので、流路の気密性が確保され、しかも取り付けが簡単であるという効果がある。
【0024】
この発明によれば、溝の開口周縁にリブを形成し、該リブに回路基板を載置させて構成したので、回路基板が接着剤の量の多少にかかわらずリブの高さに位置され、しかもリブによって接着剤が流路内に流れ込む虞がなく、均一断面積の流路が得られるという効果がある。

[0009]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described.
Embodiment 1 FIG.
1 is a conceptual exploded perspective view of a flow meter according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view thereof, FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken along line AA in FIG. 2, and FIG. 4 is a line A′-A ′ in FIG. It is sectional drawing.
[0010]
As shown in FIG. 1, the flow meter includes a lid 11 whose one end is rotatably supported by a case main body 10, a circuit board 12 mounted in the case main body 10, and the like.
[0011]
As shown in FIG. 1, the case main body 10 has a concave portion 13 that opens upward at an upper portion. A groove 15 that opens upward is formed in the bottom wall 14 of the recess 13, and holes 16 and 17 that extend downward are formed on the bottom surfaces of both ends of the groove 15. These holes 16 and 17 constitute flow path portions 18 a and 18 b of the flow path 18, and lower ends of the holes 16 and 17 respectively correspond to an inlet port 19 and an outlet port 20 formed on an end surface of the case body 10. Are in communication.
[0012]
As shown in FIG. 2, an arc-shaped surface 21 protruding into the flow path toward the sensor 26 is formed on the bottom surface of the intermediate portion of the groove 15. Further, as shown in FIG. 3, arcuate surfaces 22, 22 protruding into the flow path are formed on an intermediate side wall of the groove 15 sandwiching the sensor 26. The width c of the groove 15 and the width of the holes 16 and 17 are the same, and the depth a of the groove 15 is set smaller than the gap b between the holes 16 and 17. A rib 23 is formed on the bottom wall 14 of the recess 13 along the opening edge of the groove 15.
[0013]
On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 1, the lid 11 has shafts 11 a, 11 a formed at one end side and holes 24 a, 24 a formed in the side walls 24, 24 of the recess 13. Is rotatably supported with respect to the case body 10 by being inserted into the case body 10. A claw 11 b is formed at the tip of the lid 11.
The lid 11 closes the opening of the recess 13 by engaging the claw 11 b with the notch 24 b formed in the side wall 24 of the recess 13.
[0014]
The circuit board 12 is a ceramic substrate, and a connector 25 and an element having various functions are mounted on an upper surface of the circuit board 12. The micro flow sensor 26 connected to the connector 25 is provided by bonding or the like.
In the micro flow sensor 26, for example, a resistance temperature element is arranged so as to sandwich a heater element.
[0015]
The circuit board 12 is placed on the rib 23 around the opening of the groove 15 formed in the bottom wall 14 of the recess 13 and is fixed to the bottom wall 14 of the recess 13 by an adhesive 39 as shown in FIG. Is done. In this case, when the circuit board 12 is bonded to the ribs 23, the surplus adhesive 39 is prevented from entering the flow path 18 by the ribs 23, so that the peripheral surface of the circuit board 12 and the recesses 13 are formed. The gap enters the gap between the side wall 24 and the circuit board 12 is securely bonded.
The circuit board 12 installed in this way completely covers the opening of the groove 15, and the circuit board 12 constitutes one wall surface to form the flow path portion 18c of the flow path 18.
[0016]
The circuit board 12 is housed in the main body case 10 by covering the concave portion 13 with the lid 11 and engaging the claw 11b of the lid 11 with the notch 24b of the side wall 24.
[0017]
In this flow meter, the inlet port 19 and the outlet port 20 are formed by metal tubes 27, 27 embedded in the case body 10. An annular concave portion 28 is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the metal tube body 27, and a mesh knurl 29 is engraved on the peripheral surface excluding the concave portion. A female screw 30 is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the metal tube 27.
Further, a mounting hole 31 is formed through the side surface of the case body 10.
[0018]
In the flowmeter thus configured, as shown in FIG. 1, for example, a connector 33 of a hose 32 having a suction pad (not shown) at its tip is screwed into a female screw 30 of the inlet port 19, A connector 35 of a hose 34 connected to a vacuum pump (not shown) or the like is screwed into the female screw 30 of the port 20.
At this time, gaskets 36, 36 are interposed between the connector 33 and the case main body 10 and between the connector 35 and the case main body 10, respectively.
[0019]
When the vacuum pump is operated, the fluid, for example, air is sucked from the inlet port 19 to the flow path portion 18a of the flow path 18, and is sucked by the vacuum pump via the flow path parts 18c and 18b and the outlet port 20.
At that time, the fluid is first deflected in the flow path portion 18a. Next, a laminar flow is formed in the flow channel portion 18c having a shallow depth and a reduced flow channel cross-sectional area, and the flow is rectified by a constricted portion formed by the arcuate surfaces 21, 22, and 22, for example, the flow state of the fluid is measured by the sensor 26. Is done. The measured value is sent to a controller (not shown) via the connector 25, where the flow velocity value, that is, the flow rate is calculated.
For example, the flow rate is maximum when nothing is sucked by the suction pad, and the flow rate becomes almost zero when the object is sucked by the suction pad. Can be determined.
[0020]
The flow meter according to the present invention can detect not only the above-described usage mode but also a continuous change in the flow rate (flow velocity) of the fluid flowing through the flow path 18.
[0021]
Further, in the present embodiment, an example is shown in which the circuit board 12 is bonded to the bottom wall 14 of the concave portion 13 of the case main body 10 with the adhesive 26. However, as shown in FIGS. Alternatively, the ribs 23 may be attached to the bottom wall 14 of the recess 13 of the case body 10 via the gasket 37 without providing the ribs 23 around the opening edge of the groove 15.
[0022]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, according to the present invention, since one wall surface of the flow path is defined by the circuit board and the sensor is disposed on the flow path surface of the circuit board, mounting parts such as brackets are not required. In addition, not only the structure becomes simple, but also it becomes unnecessary to form a hole for mounting the sensor, thereby making it possible to reduce the size of the flowmeter.
[0023]
According to the present invention, since the circuit board is bonded to the peripheral edge of the opening of the groove of the case main body that defines one wall surface of the flow path, the airtightness of the flow path is ensured and the mounting is simple. effective.
[0024]
According to the present invention, the rib is formed on the periphery of the opening of the groove, and the circuit board is mounted on the rib, so that the circuit board is positioned at the height of the rib regardless of the amount of the adhesive, In addition, there is no danger that the adhesive flows into the flow path by the ribs, and there is an effect that a flow path having a uniform sectional area can be obtained.
