Liquid level detector

A liquid level detector may include a rotator fixed to an arm, a magnet fixed to the rotator, and a supporter rotatably supporting the rotator. The supporter may include a body, and an outer circumference wall disposed along a rotation direction of the arm on an outer circumference side of the magnet. The rotator may include a cover covering an end part of the outer circumference wall, and an opposing wall opposing at least one of an inner circumference surface and an outer circumference surface of the outer circumference wall. A first clearance between the supporter and the magnet may communicate with an outer space via a second clearance between the outer circumference wall and the cover and a third clearance between the outer circumference wall and the opposing wall. The first clearance may be larger than at least one of the second clearance and the third clearance.

Liquid level detector

A liquid level detector may comprise an arm attached to a float, a rotator fixed to the arm, a magnet fixed to the rotator, a supporter rotatably supporting the rotator. The supporter may comprise a body housing a magnetic sensor and opposing the magnet with a clearance, a supporting portion disposed along a rotation direction of the arm on an outer circumference side of the magnet and projecting from the body toward the rotator, and a flange portion projecting from the supporting portion along an outer circumference direction at a position spaced from the body in a rotational axial direction of the arm. The rotator may comprise an engaging portion slidably disposed relative to the flange portion along the rotation direction of the arm and engaging the flange portion so as to regulate a motion of the arm in the rotational axial direction.

A liquid level detection device is provided with a fixed body and a rotating body, and includes a float and an arm. The arm has an insertion portion to be inserted in the rotating body and an extending portion extending straight and bent relative to the insertion portion. The rotating body has an insertion hole in which the insertion portion is inserted in an insertion direction, a holding portion having a receiving opening receiving the extending portion in an intersecting direction intersecting with the insertion direction and holding the extending portion received by the receiving opening, and a stopper releasing the receiving opening by moving in the insertion direction due to elastic deformation from a blocking state in which a blocking portion blocks the receiving opening. The stopper has a sliding surface portion facing an opposite direction to the insertion direction, on which the extending portion is allowed to slide. A thickness of the blocking portion in the insertion direction at a tip end of the sliding surface portion is greater than a diameter of the extending portion.
