Description

本発明は、センサに関し、特に、被測定物の振動、温度などを測定するため、産業機械、鉄道、自動車等に適用されるセンサに関する。 The present invention relates to a sensor, and more particularly to a sensor applied to industrial machines, railways, automobiles, etc. for measuring vibration, temperature, etc. of a measured object.

例えば、車両等に取り付けられる振動センサや温度センサは、検出部や基板等をケース内部に収容し、蓋部材を固定ネジでケースに固定し、ケースを車両に他の固定ネジで固定している。 For example, in a vibration sensor or temperature sensor attached to a vehicle or the like, a detection unit, a substrate, etc. are housed inside the case, a lid member is fixed to the case with a fixing screw, and the case is fixed to the vehicle with another fixing screw. ..

また、従来のセンサ組立体としては、センサ検出部を検出体固定ネジを用いてケースの上壁面内側に固定することで、ケースに対する相対的な運動を生じさせず、ケースに生じた運動に応じた量のみを検出するようにして、センサ検出部が信頼性に優れた検出性能を有するものが知られている(特許文献1参照)。また、この特許文献1では、センサ組立体の本体を被検出体へ固定するブラケットは、被検出体に固定されると共に、ブラケット固定ネジを用いて、検出体固定ネジと同じ方向からケースに固定されている。 Further, in the conventional sensor assembly, by fixing the sensor detection unit to the inside of the upper wall surface of the case by using the detection body fixing screw, the relative movement with respect to the case is not generated, and the movement generated in the case is responded to. It is known that the sensor detection unit has a highly reliable detection performance so as to detect only a large amount (see Patent Document 1). Further, in Patent Document 1, the bracket for fixing the main body of the sensor assembly to the detected body is fixed to the detected body, and is fixed to the case from the same direction as the detector fixing screw by using the bracket fixing screw. Has been done.

しかしながら、従来のセンサでは、振動によってネジが緩むと、ネジや蓋部材が脱落する可能性がある。
特許文献1に記載のセンサ組立体においても、ブラケット固定ネジは、外部に露出しているため、被検出体の振動によってネジが緩むと、ネジの脱落、さらには、ブラケットからケースが分離する可能性があった。
However, with conventional sensors, if the screw loosens due to vibration, the screw or lid member may fall off.
Even in the sensor assembly described in Patent Document 1, since the bracket fixing screw is exposed to the outside, if the screw is loosened due to the vibration of the detected body, the screw may fall off and the case may be separated from the bracket. There was sex.

本発明は、前述した課題に鑑みてなされたものであり、その目的は、振動によってネジが緩んだ場合でも、ネジが脱落せず、蓋部材が脱落するのを防止できるセンサを提供することにある。 The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a sensor capable of preventing a screw from falling off and a lid member from falling off even when the screw is loosened by vibration. be.

本発明の一実施形態に係るセンサの断面図である。It is sectional drawing of the sensor which concerns on one Embodiment of this invention.

以下、本発明の一実施形態に係るセンサについて、図面に基づいて詳細に説明する。この図1に示すセンサ10は、被測定物1の振動や温度などの物理量を検出するものであり、被測定物1の検出面2に取り付けられる。 Hereinafter, the sensor according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. The sensor 10 shown in FIG. 1 detects physical quantities such as vibration and temperature of the object to be measured 1, and is attached to the detection surface 2 of the object to be measured 1.

センサ10は、複数のケース固定用ネジ31(図1では、1本のみ図示)によって被測定物1の検出面2に取り付けられる略矩形状のセンサケース11と、複数の蓋固定用ネジ32によってセンサケース11に取り付けられる平板状の蓋部材21と、を備える。そして、センサケース11と蓋部材21とによって囲まれた図示しない空間に、不図示の検出部や基板が配置される。蓋部材21は、防水、防塵などから、センサ10の内部部品を保護するために設けられている。検出部にて検出された信号は、センサケース11の側面に接続された信号ケーブル13によって外部へと送られる。 The sensor 10 is formed by a substantially rectangular sensor case 11 attached to the detection surface 2 of the object 1 to be measured by a plurality of case fixing screws 31 (only one is shown in FIG. 1), and a plurality of lid fixing screws 32. A flat plate-shaped lid member 21 attached to the sensor case 11 is provided. Then, a detection unit and a substrate (not shown) are arranged in a space (not shown) surrounded by the sensor case 11 and the lid member 21. The lid member 21 is provided to protect the internal parts of the sensor 10 from waterproofing, dustproofing, and the like. The signal detected by the detection unit is sent to the outside by the signal cable 13 connected to the side surface of the sensor case 11.

また、本実施形態では、蓋部材21は、信号ケーブル13が接続されるセンサケース11の側面と反対側の側面に取り付けられている。蓋部材21には、蓋固定用ネジ32の皿形の頭部32aを収容する頭部収容孔22が形成されており、蓋固定用ネジ32が締め付けられた状態では、蓋固定用ネジ32の頭部32aは、蓋部材21の表面から突出しない。 Further, in the present embodiment, the lid member 21 is attached to the side surface opposite to the side surface of the sensor case 11 to which the signal cable 13 is connected. The lid member 21 is formed with a head accommodating hole 22 for accommodating the dish-shaped head 32a of the lid fixing screw 32, and when the lid fixing screw 32 is tightened, the lid fixing screw 32 has a head accommodating hole 22. The head 32a does not protrude from the surface of the lid member 21.

さらに、センサ10は、頭部収容孔22が開口する蓋部材21の表面を覆うことで、蓋固定用ネジ32を覆うと共に、ケース固定用ネジ31によってセンサケース11と共締めされるカバー部材40を、さらに備える。即ち、ケース固定用ネジ31は、センサケース11及びカバー部材40の貫通孔12、41を介して、検出面2に形成されるネジ穴3に締結される。 Further, the sensor 10 covers the surface of the lid member 21 to which the head accommodating hole 22 opens to cover the lid fixing screw 32, and the cover member 40 is fastened together with the sensor case 11 by the case fixing screw 31. Further prepare. That is, the case fixing screw 31 is fastened to the screw hole 3 formed in the detection surface 2 via the through holes 12 and 41 of the sensor case 11 and the cover member 40.

このカバー部材40は、蓋部材21の表面を覆うと共に、センサケース11の上面、及びセンサケース11の両側面(図1の紙面に垂直な両側面)を覆い、センサケース11と蓋部材21との接合面も覆っている。 The cover member 40 covers the surface of the lid member 21, the upper surface of the sensor case 11, and both side surfaces of the sensor case 11 (both sides perpendicular to the paper surface in FIG. 1), and the sensor case 11 and the lid member 21 It also covers the joint surface of.

ここで、センサケース11を固定するケース固定用ネジ31は、蓋固定用ネジ32より大径で、センサケース11が確実に脱落しないように、被測定物1の検出面2への締結力が大きくなるように設計されているので、カバー部材40のセンサケース11からの脱落も確実に防止される。
したがって、本実施形態のセンサ10によれば、ケース固定用ネジ31によって被測定物1の検出面2に取り付けられるセンサケース11と、蓋固定用ネジ32によってセンサケース11に取り付けられる蓋部材21と、蓋固定用ネジ32を覆うと共に、ケース固定用ネジ31によってセンサケース11と共締めされるカバー部材40と、を備える。これにより、振動によって蓋固定用ネジ32が緩んだ場合でも、該ネジ32が脱落せず、また、蓋部材21が脱落するのを防止できる。
Here, the case fixing screw 31 for fixing the sensor case 11 has a larger diameter than the lid fixing screw 32, and the fastening force of the object to be measured 1 to the detection surface 2 is applied so that the sensor case 11 does not fall off reliably. Since it is designed to be large, the cover member 40 is surely prevented from falling off from the sensor case 11.
Therefore, according to the sensor 10 of the present embodiment, the sensor case 11 attached to the detection surface 2 of the object 1 to be measured by the case fixing screw 31 and the lid member 21 attached to the sensor case 11 by the lid fixing screw 32. The cover member 40 covers the lid fixing screw 32 and is fastened together with the sensor case 11 by the case fixing screw 31. As a result, even if the lid fixing screw 32 is loosened due to vibration, the screw 32 cannot be removed and the lid member 21 can be prevented from being removed.

尚、本発明は、前述した実施形態に限定されるものではなく、適宜、変形、改良、等が可能である。
例えば、ケース固定用ネジ31は、図示しないワイヤリングやネジロック等で緩み防止対策を行う事で、より効果的に緩みを防止することができる。
また、蓋部材固定用ネジ32の緩みを防止するために、接着剤を用いて、該ネジ32と蓋部材21を固定してもよい。
センサは、上述した振動センサや温度センサに限定されず、他の物理量を検出する任意のセンサであればよい。
The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and can be appropriately modified, improved, and the like.
For example, the case fixing screw 31 can be more effectively prevented from loosening by taking measures to prevent loosening by wiring, screw lock, or the like (not shown).
Further, in order to prevent the lid member fixing screw 32 from loosening, the screw 32 and the lid member 21 may be fixed by using an adhesive.
The sensor is not limited to the vibration sensor and the temperature sensor described above, and may be any sensor that detects other physical quantities.
