Abstract
Description
本発明は、湿気検出装置に関し、特に、筐体内が乾燥状態に維持されているかを検出する湿気検出装置に関する。 The present invention relates to a moisture detection device, and more particularly to a moisture detection device that detects whether the inside of a housing is maintained in a dry state.
石油価格の高騰、環境保護意識の高まりに伴い、電池モジュールを動力源とする交通運輸車両が一般的な交通手段となることは、将来の趨勢となる。前述の交通運輸車両は、例えば、電動自転車、電動オートバイ、ハイブリッド自動車など電動輸送機器である。 As the price of oil rises and environmental protection is heightened, it will be a future trend that transportation vehicles powered by battery modules will become common transportation means. The aforementioned transportation vehicle is, for example, an electric transportation device such as an electric bicycle, an electric motorcycle, and a hybrid vehicle.
しかし、湿度が高い地域では、交通運輸車両に応用された電池モジュールは、湿気の影響を受けやすく、電池モジュールの寿命が短くなる。特に、これら電動車両が運行中に、雨が降ったり、路面が積水すると、電池モジュールへ湿気が容易に浸入し、電池モジュールに非常に重大な損害が発生する恐れがある。 However, in areas with high humidity, battery modules applied to transportation vehicles are susceptible to moisture and the life of the battery modules is shortened. In particular, when these electric vehicles are in operation, if it rains or the road surface accumulates, moisture can easily enter the battery module, which may cause very serious damage to the battery module.
電子装置の使用寿命を延長し、又は電子装置の安全性を確保するために、多くの電子装置はいずれも乾燥状態を維持する作動環境が必要である。電池モジュールを例に挙げると、電池モジュールは通常筐体内に収容され、電池モジュールは、湿気が多い環境では、非常に危険であるので、電池モジュールの作動環境を確保するために、筐体内部の空間を乾燥状態に維持する必要がある。従って、電池モジュールを収容する筐体内部の湿気をモニタリングすることが好ましく、電池モジュールが湿気により破損する前に予め処置を行うことができる。 In order to extend the service life of electronic devices or to ensure the safety of electronic devices, many electronic devices require an operating environment that maintains a dry state. Taking a battery module as an example, the battery module is usually housed in a casing, and the battery module is extremely dangerous in a humid environment. Therefore, in order to ensure the operating environment of the battery module, It is necessary to keep the space dry. Therefore, it is preferable to monitor the moisture inside the housing that houses the battery module, and treatment can be performed in advance before the battery module is damaged by moisture.
例えば、電子式湿気検出装置のような従来の湿気検出装置は、二つの櫛型回路が相互に交差して設けられる。電池モジュール内の湿気が一定程度に達すると、二つの櫛型回路は相互に導通して電子信号を生成し、電池モジュールの保護回路へ伝送して、電池モジュールの動作を中断させる。別の方法は、無線自動識別システム(RFID)などの無線通信モジュールを介して、信号をアラーム装置へ伝送してアラーム装置によりユーザに対し電池モジュールが湿気に晒されていることを知らせる。 For example, a conventional moisture detection device such as an electronic moisture detection device is provided with two comb circuits intersecting each other. When the humidity in the battery module reaches a certain level, the two comb circuits are electrically connected to each other to generate an electronic signal, which is transmitted to the protection circuit of the battery module to interrupt the operation of the battery module. Another method transmits a signal to an alarm device via a wireless communication module, such as a wireless automatic identification system (RFID), which informs the user that the battery module is exposed to moisture.
しかし、上述の方法は、電子式方法でなければ、ユーザが電池モジュールを収容した筐体内が乾燥状態に保たれているか直観的に知ることができず、又上記方法を利用すると、電力を消費する。 However, if the above method is not an electronic method, the user cannot intuitively know whether or not the inside of the housing containing the battery module is kept dry, and if the above method is used, the power consumption is reduced. To do.
本発明は湿気検出装置を提供し、それが設けられた湿気検出センサにより、ユーザは湿気検出装置内部が乾燥状態に維持されているか否かを直接知ることができる。 The present invention provides a moisture detection device, and a moisture detection sensor provided with the moisture detection device allows a user to directly know whether or not the inside of the moisture detection device is maintained in a dry state.

The housing has a housing wall, and the electronic module is located in the housing. The moisture detection sensor includes a case and a moisture indicator material, the humidity indicator material is accommodated in the case, and the color of the humidity indicator material changes as the humidity inside the case increases. The case passes through the housing wall and is coupled to the housing. The case has a plurality of perforations and one light-transmitting portion, and the light-transmitting portion is exposed outside the housing, and the perforations communicate the space inside the housing with the space inside the case.

Although the present invention can be understood more deeply and specifically, the attached specification and drawings are used for explaining the present invention and do not limit the present invention.
図１を参照すると、本発明の実施例の湿気検出装置の立体分解図である。湿気検出装置１は、筐体１０、電子モジュール２０及び湿気検出センサ３０を含む。電子モジュール２０は、筐体１０内に主要され、湿気検出センサ３０によりユーザが筐体１０内の湿度をモニタリングでき、電子モジュール３０が湿気を含んでいないか知ることができる。
＜実施例＞
Referring to FIG. 1, it is a three-dimensional exploded view of a moisture detection device according to an embodiment of the present invention. The moisture detection device 1 includes a housing 10, an electronic module 20, and a moisture detection sensor 30. The electronic module 20 is mainly provided in the housing 10, and the moisture detection sensor 30 allows a user to monitor the humidity in the housing 10 and know whether the electronic module 30 contains moisture.
<Example>
具体的には、筐体１０は、筐体壁を有し、筐体壁上に筐体壁を貫通して形成された開口１００を有する。電子モジュール２０、例えば、電池モジュールを、筐体１０内に設置する。筐体１０が六面体である時、開口１００は前記筐体１０の任意の壁上に形成することができる。 Specifically, the housing 10 has a housing wall and has an opening 100 formed through the housing wall on the housing wall. An electronic module 20, for example, a battery module is installed in the housing 10. When the housing 10 is a hexahedron, the opening 100 can be formed on any wall of the housing 10.
湿気検出センサ３０は、筐体１０内に湿気が侵入しているか否かを検出することができる。本発明の実施例の湿気検出センサ３０はケース３１及び湿気インジケータ材料３２を含む。 The moisture detection sensor 30 can detect whether moisture has entered the housing 10. The moisture detection sensor 30 of the embodiment of the present invention includes a case 31 and a moisture indicator material 32.
湿気インジケータ材料３２は、ケース３１内に収容され、且つ湿気インジケータ材料３２の色は、湿度によって変化する。本実施例の湿気インジケータ材料３２は、例えば、塩化コバルト無水物又はオレンジシリコンなどである。塩化コバルト無水物は青色であり、塩化コバルト無水物が吸水による水和反応後、ピンク色の塩化コバルト六水和物(CoCl2．6H2O)となる。そして、オレンジシリコンは吸水後、緑色になる。 The moisture indicator material 32 is accommodated in the case 31, and the color of the moisture indicator material 32 changes with humidity. The moisture indicator material 32 of the present embodiment is, for example, cobalt chloride anhydride or orange silicon. Cobalt chloride anhydride is blue, and the cobalt chloride anhydride becomes pink cobalt chloride hexahydrate (CoCl 2 .6H 2 O) after hydration by water absorption. And orange silicon turns green after water absorption.
ケース３１は、筐体壁を貫通し、筐体１０と結合する。本実施例のケース３１は開口１００を通過して筐体１０内へ延伸し、筐体１０に組み立てられる。ケース３１は、複数の穿孔３１３及び一つの透光部を有する。透光部は筐体１０外に露出し、穿孔３１３は、筐体１０内部空間とケース３１内部空間を連通させる。実施例において、湿気検出センサ３０は、ペースト材（図示せず）をさらに含んでもよく、ケース３１と筐体壁との間に形成された間隙を密封する。 The case 31 passes through the housing wall and is coupled to the housing 10. The case 31 of the present embodiment passes through the opening 100 and extends into the housing 10 and is assembled to the housing 10. The case 31 has a plurality of perforations 313 and one translucent part. The translucent part is exposed to the outside of the housing 10, and the perforations 313 connect the internal space of the housing 10 and the internal space of the case 31. In the embodiment, the moisture detection sensor 30 may further include a paste material (not shown), and seals a gap formed between the case 31 and the housing wall.
実施例において、ケース３１は、主に、第１ケース３１０及び第２ケース３２０を組み立ててなり、第１ケース３１０と第２ケース３２０は収容空間を囲むように設けられる。湿気インジケータ材料３２は、収容空間内に配置される。少なくとも一部の第１ケース３１０は、筐体１０内に位置し、少なくとも一部の第２ケース３２０は筐体１０の外側に露出する。特に、本実施例において、第２ケース３２０は、第１ケース３１０と相互に分離することができる。 In the embodiment, the case 31 is mainly formed by assembling the first case 310 and the second case 320, and the first case 310 and the second case 320 are provided so as to surround the accommodation space. The moisture indicator material 32 is disposed in the receiving space. At least a portion of the first case 310 is located in the housing 10, and at least a portion of the second case 320 is exposed to the outside of the housing 10. In particular, in the present embodiment, the second case 320 can be separated from the first case 310.
この他、筐体１０内の第１ケース３１０は、ケース壁を貫通して形成される複数の穿孔３１３を有して、ケース３１の内部空間と筐体１０の内部空間を連通させる。穿孔３１３は、円孔又はスリット状溝であってもよい。本発明の実施例において、湿気インジケータ材料３２は、顆粒状を呈することができ、穿孔３１３が円孔である時、湿気インジケータ材料３２が穿孔３１３から筐体１０内に落脱することを防止するために、湿気インジケータ材料３２の粒径は穿孔３１３の孔径より大きくなければならない。同様の理由により、穿孔３１３がスリット状溝である時、湿気インジケータ材料３２の粒径はスリット状溝の幅より大きくなければならない。 In addition, the first case 310 in the housing 10 has a plurality of perforations 313 formed through the case wall to communicate the internal space of the case 31 with the internal space of the housing 10. The perforations 313 may be circular holes or slit grooves. In an embodiment of the present invention, the moisture indicator material 32 can be granular and prevents the moisture indicator material 32 from falling into the housing 10 from the perforations 313 when the perforations 313 are circular. In order to do so, the particle size of the moisture indicator material 32 must be larger than the hole size of the perforations 313. For similar reasons, when the perforation 313 is a slit groove, the particle size of the moisture indicator material 32 must be greater than the width of the slit groove.
本実施例において、第２ケース３２０は、前記透光部を含み、前記透光部は可視光を透過させて、ユーザが筐体１０の外側から湿気インジケータ材料３２の色の変化を観察でき、筐体１０内の湿度の変化を判定できることを指す。湿気インジケータ材料３２は、吸水により色が変化したとき、筐体１０内部の電子モジュール２０は既に湿気を受けていることを示し、ユーザに湿気を受けた電子モジュール２０に対し処置を行うことを知らせ、第２ケース３２０を取り外して、湿気インジケータ材料３２を取り出して交換するか又は、物理又は化学方式により還元処理を行う。前記物理方式は、例えば、湿気インジケータ材料を加熱する方法である。 In the present embodiment, the second case 320 includes the translucent part, the translucent part transmits visible light, and the user can observe the change in the color of the moisture indicator material 32 from the outside of the housing 10, It means that a change in humidity within the housing 10 can be determined. When the color changes due to water absorption, the moisture indicator material 32 indicates that the electronic module 20 in the housing 10 has already received moisture, and informs the user that the electronic module 20 that has received moisture is to perform treatment. Then, the second case 320 is removed and the moisture indicator material 32 is taken out and replaced, or a reduction process is performed by a physical or chemical method. The physical method is, for example, a method of heating a moisture indicator material.
本実施例において、第１ケース３１０は、第１コード孔３１４を有し、且つ第２ケース３２０は第２コード孔３２４を有して、電子モジュール２０のリード線２１を第１コード孔３１４及び第２コード孔３２４を順に通過して筐体１０の外側へ延伸する。電子モジュール２０が組電池である場合、リード線２１は実際は組電池の電圧コードである。そして電圧コードは第１コード孔３１３及び第２コード孔３２４を通過した後、負荷装置に接続して、負荷装置に給電する。 In the present embodiment, the first case 310 has a first code hole 314, and the second case 320 has a second code hole 324, and the lead wire 21 of the electronic module 20 is connected to the first code hole 314 and The second cord hole 324 passes in order and extends to the outside of the housing 10. When the electronic module 20 is an assembled battery, the lead wire 21 is actually a voltage code of the assembled battery. The voltage cord passes through the first cord hole 313 and the second cord hole 324, and then is connected to the load device to supply power to the load device.
湿気検出センサ３０は更に、カバー部材３３を含んでもよい。前記カバー部材３３はシーリング材及び/またはシーリングリングを含んでもよい。カバー部材３３はリード線２１と第２コード孔３２４との間の間隙を密封して湿気が外界からケース３１内に進入して、湿気インジケータ材料３２の検出結果に影響を与えることを防止する。実施例において、カバー部材３３はシーリングリングである。前記リード線２１は、外界の湿気がケース３１の内部空間にできるだけ進入しないように、貫通して設けられ、シーリングリングと相互に密設する。又、第２ケース３２０の交換が必要な場合、リード線２１及びシーリングリングは、第２ケース３２０と相互に分離する。別の実施例において、カバー部材３３はシーリングリング以外にも、シーリング材を共に使用して、外界からの湿気を隔絶する効果がさらに向上できる。シーリング材は、熱硬化性樹脂、光硬化性樹脂又はエポキシ樹脂であってもよい。本発明の実施例の湿気検出センサについて詳細な構造を以下のように説明する。図１及び図２Ａを参照すると、図２Ａは、本発明実施例の湿気検出センサの立体分解図である。 The moisture detection sensor 30 may further include a cover member 33. The cover member 33 may include a sealing material and / or a sealing ring. The cover member 33 seals the gap between the lead wire 21 and the second cord hole 324 to prevent moisture from entering the case 31 from the outside and affecting the detection result of the moisture indicator material 32. In the embodiment, the cover member 33 is a sealing ring. The lead wire 21 is provided so as to penetrate outside moisture into the internal space of the case 31 as much as possible, and is closely connected to the sealing ring. When the second case 320 needs to be replaced, the lead wire 21 and the sealing ring are separated from the second case 320. In another embodiment, the cover member 33 can further improve the effect of isolating moisture from the outside by using a sealing material together with the sealing ring. The sealing material may be a thermosetting resin, a photocurable resin, or an epoxy resin. The detailed structure of the moisture detection sensor of the embodiment of the present invention will be described as follows. Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2A, FIG. 2A is a three-dimensional exploded view of a moisture detection sensor according to an embodiment of the present invention.
第１ケース３１０は、第１板状体３１１及び第１筒体３１２を含むことができ、第１筒体３１２のうちの一端の開口は、第１板状体３１１に遮蔽されて閉合端３１２ａを形成し、第１筒体３１２のもう一端は、依然開口端３１２ｂである。前記穿孔３１３は、第１板状体３１１又は第１筒体３１２に形成することができる。前記閉合端３１２ａは開口１００を通過して筐体１０内に延伸して、第１ケース３１０の外表面を開口１００の外壁と結合させる。実施例において、第１板状体３１１は、弧形プレートであり、第１筒体３１２の端部を第１板状体３１１の周縁と接合する。別の実施例において、第１ケース３１０は、半球状ケースであってもよい。しかし、第１ケース３１０の形状はこれに制限されない。 The first case 310 may include a first plate 311 and a first cylinder 312, and an opening at one end of the first cylinder 312 is shielded by the first plate 311 and closed end 312 a. The other end of the first cylinder 312 is still the open end 312b. The perforations 313 can be formed in the first plate-like body 311 or the first cylindrical body 312. The closed end 312 a passes through the opening 100 and extends into the housing 10 to join the outer surface of the first case 310 to the outer wall of the opening 100. In the embodiment, the first plate-like body 311 is an arc-shaped plate, and the end of the first cylindrical body 312 is joined to the periphery of the first plate-like body 311. In another embodiment, the first case 310 may be a hemispherical case. However, the shape of the first case 310 is not limited to this.
実施例において、第１ケース３１０の外表面が開口１００の側壁と結合する場合、シーリングリング又はシーリング材により第１ケース３１０の外表面と開口１００の側壁との間に形成される間隙に充填することができる。別の実施例において、第１ケース３１０の外表面及び開口１００の側壁にはそれぞれおねじ及びめねじが設けられて、第１ケース３１０を筐体１０にねじ結合する。 In the embodiment, when the outer surface of the first case 310 is combined with the side wall of the opening 100, a gap formed between the outer surface of the first case 310 and the side wall of the opening 100 is filled with a sealing ring or a sealing material. be able to. In another embodiment, a male screw and a female screw are provided on the outer surface of the first case 310 and the side wall of the opening 100, respectively, so that the first case 310 is screwed to the housing 10.
本実施例の湿気検出センサ３０は、更に、ワッシャ３６を含み、湿気検出センサ３０及び筐体壁との間に形成される間隙を密封する。詳細には、ワッシャ３６は第１ケース３１０と開口１００の側壁との間に形成される間隙に位置する。 The moisture detection sensor 30 of the present embodiment further includes a washer 36, and seals a gap formed between the moisture detection sensor 30 and the housing wall. Specifically, the washer 36 is located in a gap formed between the first case 310 and the side wall of the opening 100.
本実施例において、第２ケース３２０は第１ケース３１０に直接組み立てられ、組み立て方法は、ねじ結合手段又は係合手段によってもよい。その他の実施例において、第１ケース３１０と第２ケース３２０の間にその他の接続部材により組み合わせることができる。この他、第１ケース３１０と第２ケース３２０は一体形成であってもよい。この状況の下では、湿気インジケータ材料３２は、第１ケース３１０と第２ケース３２０内に密封される。従って、湿気インジケータ材料３２は、還元可能な材料を選択しなければならない。所謂還元可能材料とは、前記材料が吸水後、物理的または化学的な方法により吸水前の状態に還元できることを指し、例えば、塩化コバルト無水物である。 In the present embodiment, the second case 320 is directly assembled to the first case 310, and the assembly method may be by screw coupling means or engagement means. In other embodiments, the first case 310 and the second case 320 may be combined with other connecting members. In addition, the first case 310 and the second case 320 may be integrally formed. Under this circumstance, the moisture indicator material 32 is sealed in the first case 310 and the second case 320. Therefore, the moisture indicator material 32 must be selected from a reducible material. The so-called reducible material means that the material can be reduced to a state before water absorption by a physical or chemical method after water absorption, for example, cobalt chloride anhydride.
第２ケース３２０は、第２板状体３２１及び第２筒体３２２を含む。第２筒体３２２は第１端部３２２ａ及び第１端部３２２ａに相対する第２端部３２２ｂを有する。第２筒体３２２が第１筒体３１２に組み立てられる場合、第１端部３２２ａは第１筒体３１２の開口端３１２ｂに進入するとともに、第２筒体３２２の外表面と第１筒体３１２の内表面が相互に密設する。つまり、第２筒体３２２の外径は、第１筒体３１２の内径よりも小さく、第２筒体３２２を第１筒体３１２中に取り付けることができる。実施例において、第２筒体３２２の外側壁及び第１筒体３１２が近接する開口端３１２ｂの内側壁にはそれぞれねじ山が設けられ、第１筒体３１２と第２筒体３２２が相互にねじ結合が可能である。本実施例において、第２板状体３２１及び第２筒体３２２はいずれも透明ケースであり、第２板状体３２１及び第２筒体３２２の材質は、例えばアクリル又はプラスチックである。別の実施例において、第２板状体３２１だけが透明材質により構成される。 The second case 320 includes a second plate-like body 321 and a second cylindrical body 322. The second cylinder 322 has a first end 322a and a second end 322b opposite to the first end 322a. When the second cylinder 322 is assembled to the first cylinder 312, the first end 322 a enters the opening end 312 b of the first cylinder 312, and the outer surface of the second cylinder 322 and the first cylinder 312. The inner surfaces of each other are closely packed. That is, the outer diameter of the second cylinder 322 is smaller than the inner diameter of the first cylinder 312, and the second cylinder 322 can be attached in the first cylinder 312. In the embodiment, the outer wall of the second cylindrical body 322 and the inner wall of the open end 312b where the first cylindrical body 312 is close are respectively provided with threads, and the first cylindrical body 312 and the second cylindrical body 322 are mutually connected. Screw connection is possible. In the present embodiment, the second plate-like body 321 and the second cylinder 322 are both transparent cases, and the material of the second plate-like body 321 and the second cylinder 322 is, for example, acrylic or plastic. In another embodiment, only the second plate-like body 321 is made of a transparent material.
第２板状体３２１は、第２端部３２２ｂと結合し、閉塞端を形成する。つまり、第２板状体３２１は、第２筒体３２２を第２端部３２２ｂの開口において完全に密封して、ケース３１の内部空間を完全に外界から隔絶する。その他、第２板状体３２１は筐体１０の外側へ露出するとともに、筐体１０の開口１００を完全に遮蔽する。そして、第２板状体３２１と第２筒体３２２は一体成形であってもよい。ユーザが湿気インジケータ材料３２を交換する又は湿気インジケータ材料３２の還元処理を行う場合、筐体１０外から露出した第２板状体３２１に対し加力することにより、第２ケース３２０と第１ケース３１０が分離できる。例えば、第２板状体３２１を回転することにより、第２筒体３２２から第１筒体３１２を回転させて引き出し、第２ケース３２０を第１ケース３１０から取り外す。 The second plate-like body 321 is combined with the second end 322b to form a closed end. That is, the second plate-like body 321 completely seals the second cylinder 322 at the opening of the second end 322b, and completely isolates the internal space of the case 31 from the outside. In addition, the second plate-like body 321 is exposed to the outside of the housing 10 and completely shields the opening 100 of the housing 10. And the 2nd plate-shaped body 321 and the 2nd cylinder 322 may be integrally molded. When the user replaces the moisture indicator material 32 or performs the reduction process of the moisture indicator material 32, the second case 320 and the first case are applied by applying force to the second plate 321 exposed from the outside of the housing 10. 310 can be separated. For example, by rotating the second plate 321, the first cylinder 312 is rotated and pulled out from the second cylinder 322, and the second case 320 is removed from the first case 310.
本実施例において、第２板状体３２１は更に、第２板状体３２１の外側表面に形成された溝３２１ａを含む。ユーザは、溝３２１ａに硬貨又は適切な工具を挿入して回転させ、湿気検出センサ３０を筐体１０から取り外す又は、湿気検出センサ３０を筐体１０に取り付けることができる。 In the present embodiment, the second plate-like body 321 further includes a groove 321 a formed on the outer surface of the second plate-like body 321. The user can insert a coin or an appropriate tool into the groove 321 a and rotate it to remove the moisture detection sensor 30 from the housing 10 or attach the moisture detection sensor 30 to the housing 10.
第２ケース３２０の外形は上記実施例に制限されない。図２Ｂを参照すると、本発明の湿気検出センサ３０の別の実施例の立体分解図である。本実施例の部材は図２Ａ中の部材とほぼ同一であるので、以下において、異なる部分について詳細に説明する。図２Ｂの実施例において、第２筒体３２２の第１端部３２２ａは閉塞端であり、且つ第２板状体３２１がリング状板であり、第２筒体３２２の外側表面を囲むように設けられ、且つ第２端部３２２ｂに隣接する。つまり、第２ケース３２０の外形は礼帽に類似し、第２板状体３２１は礼帽のつばに類似する。 The outer shape of the second case 320 is not limited to the above embodiment. Referring to FIG. 2B, it is a three-dimensional exploded view of another embodiment of the moisture detection sensor 30 of the present invention. Since the members of the present embodiment are substantially the same as the members in FIG. 2A, different parts will be described in detail below. 2B, the first end 322a of the second cylindrical body 322 is a closed end, and the second plate-shaped body 321 is a ring-shaped plate so as to surround the outer surface of the second cylindrical body 322. And is adjacent to the second end 322b. That is, the outer shape of the second case 320 is similar to a hat, and the second plate-like body 321 is similar to a collar of a hat.
図３は、本実施例の別の実施例の湿気検出センサの立体分解図である。各部材の設置が、前の実施例と同一の部分はここでは詳細に述べない。以下において、本実施例と前の実施例が異なる個所について説明を行う。本実施例の湿気検出センサ３０'は、更に仕切り板３４を含む。仕切り板３４は、ケース３１内に設置され、ケース３１内部空間をそれぞれ独立した第１空間３１ａ及び第２空間３１ｂに分離し、第２空間３１ｂは第１空間３１ａの下方に位置する。 FIG. 3 is a three-dimensional exploded view of a moisture detection sensor according to another embodiment of the present embodiment. The same parts as those in the previous embodiment are not described in detail here. In the following, the differences between the present embodiment and the previous embodiment will be described. The moisture detection sensor 30 ′ of this embodiment further includes a partition plate 34. The partition plate 34 is installed in the case 31, and separates the internal space of the case 31 into a first space 31a and a second space 31b that are independent from each other, and the second space 31b is located below the first space 31a.
詳細には、本実施例の湿気検出センサ３０'が、筐体１０の側壁に設置された場合、仕切り板３４は開口１００が位置する筐体壁表面にほぼ垂直である。つまり、前記状況の下、仕切り板３４は、第１板状体３２２の内表面、第２板状体３２１の内表面及び第１筒体３１２(又は第２筒体３２２)の内壁面に当接し、そして、収容空間を上下二つの部分に分割する。湿気検出センサ３０'が筐体１０の底面に設置される場合、仕切り板３４は筐体１０の底面とほぼ平行である。つまり、仕切り板３４は第１筒体３１２(又は第２筒体３２２)の内壁面に当接する。 Specifically, when the moisture detection sensor 30 ′ of the present embodiment is installed on the side wall of the housing 10, the partition plate 34 is substantially perpendicular to the surface of the housing wall where the opening 100 is located. That is, under the above circumstances, the partition plate 34 contacts the inner surface of the first plate-like body 322, the inner surface of the second plate-like body 321 and the inner wall surface of the first cylinder 312 (or the second cylinder 322). The accommodation space is divided into two parts, upper and lower. When the moisture detection sensor 30 ′ is installed on the bottom surface of the housing 10, the partition plate 34 is substantially parallel to the bottom surface of the housing 10. That is, the partition plate 34 contacts the inner wall surface of the first cylinder 312 (or the second cylinder 322).
仕切り板３４は、上表面３４ａ及び上表面３４ａと相対する下表面３４ｂを有する。本実施例において、上表面３４ａは第１空間３１ａを囲むように設けられる壁面のうちの一つであり、下表面３４Ｂは、第２空間３１ｂを囲むように設けられる壁面のうちの一つである。且つ仕切り板３４は、複数の開孔３４０を有し、各開孔３４０は、上表面３４ａから下表面３４ｂへ延伸して第１空間３１ａと第２空間３１ｂをこれら開孔３４０を介して相互に連通する。 The partition plate 34 has an upper surface 34a and a lower surface 34b opposite to the upper surface 34a. In the present embodiment, the upper surface 34a is one of the wall surfaces provided so as to surround the first space 31a, and the lower surface 34B is one of the wall surfaces provided so as to surround the second space 31b. is there. The partition plate 34 has a plurality of apertures 340, and each aperture 340 extends from the upper surface 34a to the lower surface 34b so that the first space 31a and the second space 31b are mutually connected through the apertures 340. Communicate with.
実施例において、湿気検出センサ３０'は、更に、吸湿材料３５を含み、吸湿材料３５と湿気インジケータ材料３２はいずれも第１空間３１ａ内に位置する。吸湿材料３５は、ユーザが電子モジュール２０を除湿する前に、先ず筐体１０内の一部の湿気を吸収する。本実施例において、吸湿材料３５は、塩化カルシウム無水物であり、塩化カルシウム無水物は湿気を吸収した後、水溶液に変化する。水溶液は第１空間３１ａからこれら開孔３４０を通過して流れ、第２空間３１ｂ内に収集される。開口３４０は円孔又は長形孔であってもよく、湿気インジケータ材料３２と吸湿材料３５のサイズは各開口３４０の最小孔径よりも大きい。例えば、湿気インジケータ材料３２と吸湿材料３５は、いずれも顆粒状を呈しており、且つ開孔３４０が円孔である。湿気インジケータ材料３２と吸湿材料３５の粒径は開孔３４０の孔径より大きい。同様に、開孔３４０が長形孔である場合、湿気インジケータ材料３２と吸湿材料３５の粒径は開孔３４０の幅よりも大きい。 In the embodiment, the moisture detection sensor 30 ′ further includes a moisture absorption material 35, and both the moisture absorption material 35 and the moisture indicator material 32 are located in the first space 31a. Before the user dehumidifies the electronic module 20, the hygroscopic material 35 first absorbs some moisture in the housing 10. In this embodiment, the hygroscopic material 35 is calcium chloride anhydride, and the calcium chloride anhydride changes to an aqueous solution after absorbing moisture. The aqueous solution flows from the first space 31a through the openings 340 and is collected in the second space 31b. The openings 340 may be circular holes or elongated holes, and the size of the moisture indicator material 32 and the moisture absorbing material 35 is larger than the minimum hole diameter of each opening 340. For example, the moisture indicator material 32 and the hygroscopic material 35 both have a granular shape, and the opening 340 is a circular hole. The particle diameters of the moisture indicator material 32 and the hygroscopic material 35 are larger than the hole diameter of the opening 340. Similarly, when the opening 340 is a long hole, the particle diameters of the moisture indicator material 32 and the moisture absorbing material 35 are larger than the width of the opening 340.
本実施例において、第１ケース３１０が前記穿孔３１３を形成する場合、これら穿孔３１３はいずれも仕切り板３４の上表面３４ａより上に位置する。つまり、筐体１０内の空間は穿孔３１３を介して第１空間３１ａと連通するが、しかし筐体１０内の空間は第２空間３１ｂと連通しないので、第２空間３１ｂに収集された水溶液の筐体１０内への流入を防止できる。 In the present embodiment, when the first case 310 forms the perforations 313, these perforations 313 are all located above the upper surface 34 a of the partition plate 34. That is, the space in the housing 10 communicates with the first space 31a through the perforations 313, but the space in the housing 10 does not communicate with the second space 31b, so that the aqueous solution collected in the second space 31b Inflow into the housing 10 can be prevented.
本実施例において、湿気検出センサ３０'は、更に吸水材料３７を含み、吸水材料３７は、例えば、コットン紙、吸水スポンジ、吸水発泡体、デンプン-アクリロニトリル共重合体などである。吸水材料３７は、第２空間３１ｂに位置し、第１空間３１ａから第２空間３１ｂ内に流入する水溶液を吸収するので、湿気検出装置１が移動、振動又は回転した場合に、第２空間３１ｂの水溶液が第１空間３１ａに逆流し、更に穿孔３１３を通過して筐体１０内の空間に流れて、筐体１０内部空間が乾燥状態に維持されないことを防止する。 In the present embodiment, the moisture detection sensor 30 ′ further includes a water absorbing material 37, and the water absorbing material 37 is, for example, cotton paper, a water absorbing sponge, a water absorbing foam, a starch-acrylonitrile copolymer, or the like. The water-absorbing material 37 is located in the second space 31b and absorbs the aqueous solution flowing into the second space 31b from the first space 31a. Therefore, when the moisture detection device 1 moves, vibrates or rotates, the second space 31b. Is prevented from flowing back into the first space 31a, passing through the perforations 313, and flowing into the space inside the housing 10, thereby preventing the internal space of the housing 10 from being maintained in a dry state.
その他の実施例において、吸湿材料３５は、シリカゲル、粘土系乾燥剤、活性酸化アルミニウムなどのような乾燥剤であってもよい。前記吸湿材料３５は、吸水後、液状にならない。このような状況の下、前記吸湿材料は第１空間３１ａ又は第２空間３１ｂに設置でき、前記仕切り板３４を使用しなくてもよい。 In other embodiments, the hygroscopic material 35 may be a desiccant such as silica gel, clay-based desiccant, activated aluminum oxide, and the like. The hygroscopic material 35 does not become liquid after water absorption. Under such circumstances, the hygroscopic material can be installed in the first space 31a or the second space 31b, and the partition plate 34 may not be used.
