Photoelectric smoke detector

Smoke detector

Fire detector

A thermal detector in which an element unit has a heat sensor element such as a, thermistor, sealed into the terminal end portion thereof, for electrically detecting temperature change. A detector body integrates by plastic-forming a pair of fitting members for electrically and mechanically coupling to a detector base. A circuit board is mounted on a circuit accommodation portion inside the detector body. A back side cove is provided for closing and sealing the circuit accommodation portion from the reverse side thereof. Airtightness of the circuit accommodation portion is thereby secured and it is simplified to make possible automatization. Positioning projections and respective positioning grooves are provided. By respectively fitting these, positioning is achieved of the circuit board to a molded body, the back side cover to the reverse side of the molded body and the outer cover to the lower side of the molded body. In such a positioned state, the back side cover, the circuit board, the molded body and the outer cover are fixed into one body by screwing of the fitting members. Positioning of a plurality of component parts at the time of assembling is simplified thereby to achieve an improvement in working efficiency and assembling precision.

Thermal detector

A thermal detector comprises: an element unit 11 having a heat sensor element 1 such as a thermistor sealed into the terminal end portion thereof, for electrically detecting temperature change; a detector body integrating by means of plastic-forming a pair of fitting members 12 for electrically and mechanically coupling to a detector base; a circuit board 16 mounted on a circuit accommodation portion 15 inside the detector body; and a back side cover 17 for closing and sealing the circuit accommodation portion 15 from the reverse side thereof. Thereby, airtightness of the circuit accommodation portion is secured and it is simplified to make possible automatization thereof. Also, positioning projections 110, 112, 114 and positioning grooves 111, 113, 115 are provided. By respectively fitting these, positioning of the circuit board 16 to a molded body 14, the back side cover 17 to the reverse side of the molded body 14 and the outer cover 13 to the lower side of the molded body 14 is effected. The back side cover 17, the circuit board 16, the molded body 14 and the outer cover 13 in such positioned state are fixed into one body by means of screwing of the fitting members 12. Thereby positioning of a plurality of component parts at the time of assembling is simplified to achieve an improvement in working efficiency and assembling precision.
