Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an oxygen concentration detector, and more particularly to an oxygen concentration detector suitable for detecting the oxygen concentration in a gas containing fixed particles such as automobile engine exhaust. It is a thing.

As a conventional oxygen concentration detector, a method that uses the principle of an oxygen concentration battery or an oxygen pump by using an oxygen ion conductive solid electrolyte such as zirconia, and the oxygen concentration dependence of the electron conductivity in metal oxides such as titania. Is used to detect the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas that corresponds to the air-fuel ratio because it controls the air-fuel mixture supplied to the automobile engine.

The output signals of these oxygen concentration detectors have temperature dependence. On the other hand, the temperature inside the exhaust pipe of the automobile engine in which the detector is mounted changes from -50 ° C to + 800 ° C, and the flow velocity of the exhaust gas is 0. To 100 m / sec, it is necessary to control the temperature according to each purpose. For example, in order to detect the air-fuel ratio theoretical point using an oxygen concentration battery, the temperature may be controlled to 300 ° C or higher, whereas in detecting the air-fuel ratio theoretical point using the oxygen concentration dependence of electron conductivity, 500 ° C may be used. It is necessary to control the temperature within the above predetermined range, and further, linear detection of the lean region air-fuel ratio using an oxygen pump requires constant temperature control of about 800 ° C. It has been proposed that an electric heating element is juxtaposed close to the element, and a heat sensitive element is juxtaposed. In this case, it is necessary to always energize and heat during engine operation, but it is necessary to suppress heating power from the viewpoint of suppressing fuel consumption, and it is necessary to reduce the heat capacity of the heating portion. Capacity desk type, thick film type, thin film type are proposed,
The support, including the detection element, and the base body for conducting are generally elongated in a cylindrical shape, a prismatic shape, and a plate shape.

On the other hand, the exhaust gas contains dust, mist in the intake air, combustion residues of fuel and lubricating oil, solid particles such as sliding wear powder of engine cylinders, pistons and intake / exhaust valves. It is known to deposit on the inner wall of the tube. These attachments are carbon, magnesium, silicon,
Phosphorus, sulfur, calcium, chromium, iron, zinc, lead, etc., which are heavier than calcium, are difficult to vaporize even at 800 ° C. Therefore, even if the electric current is constantly heated to 800 ° C., these solid particles may adhere to the detection element, gradually accumulate and the output signal changes, and eventually detection becomes impossible. This becomes more remarkable as the detection element becomes smaller.

For example, in the one disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 55-124062, an elongated rectangular plate-shaped base is coupled and supported in a plug fitting through a packing, and one end of the base has a detection part including an electrode and a layered structure. There is a heating member, which is located in the void inside the plug fitting so as to come into contact with the test gas.

However, with this structure, when attached to an automobile engine exhaust pipe, deterioration of the oxygen concentration detection element due to adhesion of solid particles described above is unavoidable, and the temperature and flow velocity of exhaust gas are drastically and rapidly increased. Since the temperature fluctuates, the temperature of the detection unit fluctuates greatly, and the constant temperature control of the detection unit becomes unstable, which causes a decrease in detection accuracy.

On the other hand, the boss metal fitting 15 protruding from the outer wall of the exhaust pipe 14 and having an internal thread is welded, and the detector main body is screwed and mounted via the gasket ring 16.

As described above, the base body 1 is provided in the plug metal fitting 3 at the position projecting outward from the inner wall of the exhaust pipe 14, the inorganic filler 7 and the disk-shaped metal fitting 4
Is supported and coupled via. That is, this disc-shaped metal fitting 4
The position where is present corresponds to the connecting portion of the base 1 in the plug fitting 3. The detection element 1a side of the base 1 is doubly surrounded by the bottomed elliptic cylinder 6 and the dish-shaped metal fitting 5, and the bottomed elliptic cylinder 6 is opened only toward the above-mentioned connecting portion, and this opening is provided. It serves as the test gas flow port of the bottom elliptic cylinder 6. The detection element 1a includes an exhaust pipe 14
It will be located near the wall surface of.

The exhaust flow, as shown by the dashed arrows in FIGS. 2 and 3,
It flows in from the side of the peripheral opening 5b 1 of the dish-shaped metal fitting 5, and its main flow is
The outer periphery of the bottomed elliptic cylinder 6 traveling around to flow to the opening 5b 2 side opposite but some divided into upper and lower directions, one bottom opening 5a 1
Since the gas flows out from the side, the other reaches the void 6a, and most of it flows out from the opposite side openings 5b 2 and 5a 2 side, the gas exchange in the vicinity of the detection element 1a (this gas exchange occurs in the bottomed elliptic cylinder 6). The exhaust gas passes through the space 6a provided above the opening, which is caused by the static pressure difference between the inside of the bottomed elliptic cylinder 6 and the space 6a, gas diffusion, etc.) is made extremely gentle.

Therefore, the detector shown in FIG. 1 effectively acts on a large and abrupt change in the exhaust gas flow velocity. First
In addition, since the intake of the exhaust flow is not in the center of the exhaust pipe 14 but near the wall surface, it is in a gentle fluctuation state. Secondly, it is further alleviated by the outer wall of the bottomed elliptic cylinder 6, and thirdly. , The vacant space 6a makes it easier.

Further, in this detector, the constant temperature controllability of the detection element 1a is dramatically improved. First, since the supporting portion of the elongated plate-shaped substrate 1 is located outside the inner wall of the exhaust pipe 14, it is strongly controlled by the outside air temperature rather than the exhaust temperature. Secondly, since the exhaust gas flow velocity of the detection element portion is extremely gentle, the heat exchange with the exhaust gas is minute and is strongly dominated by the built-in electrothermal element.

Furthermore, it works stably for a long period even with respect to fixed particles in the exhaust gas. That is, first, heavy solid particles flow in the central portion of the exhaust pipe with a high flow velocity, and therefore only light solid particles are taken in by capturing the exhaust flow from the inner wall of the exhaust pipe. Secondly, these solid particles are collected on the outer wall of the bottomed elliptic cylinder 6, and only a very small amount of solid particles drifts in the void 6a. Thirdly, even if a very small amount of light solid particles try to attach to the detection element 1a, since they have been red-heated to 800 ° C. in advance, they are all burned and vaporized, so that they do not deposit and deposit.

Further, in the above-mentioned embodiments, the description has been made of the case where the base 1 made of zirconia in the shape of an elongated rectangular plate containing the electrothermal element is used, but the base 1, the detection element 1a and the electrothermal element may be separate bodies. Often, the base body 1 has a cylindrical shape other than a plate shape,
It may have a cylindrical shape, a prismatic shape, or a tubular shape, and similar effects can be obtained. In short, in the one in which the detection element and the electric heating element are provided at one end of the elongated base body 1, the main portion of the base body is the exhaust pipe.
The members may be arranged in the atmosphere outside the wall surface of 14 and the members may be arranged so as to gently flow the test gas from the coupling support portion side to the detection element portion side.

As described above, according to the present invention, even in a test gas that contains solid particles and whose temperature and flow velocity fluctuate significantly and drastically, there is no deposition of fixed particles and the temperature of the test gas is high. Since it is not affected by the fluctuation of the flow velocity, it has an effect of exhibiting a stable detection function for a long period of time.
