ABSTRACT:
An ionization smoke detector of the present invention has an annular engaging flange portion formed integrally on the periphery of an insulating board and an engaging groove formed on a cover, so that a circuitry-accommodating portion may be moisture- and gas-tightly sealed merely by inserting the flange portion into the groove, without using special sealing members such as ruber packing members.
In an intermediate electrode mounting structure of the present invention, support legs are formed integrally on the periphery of the intermediate electrode which may be simply inserted into an opening of the insulating board to fix and support the intermediate electrode, without using screws etc. Thus, a space needed to mount the intermediate electrode can be minimized. An electrode lead is connected to a lead of an FET insulatedly potted at an appropriate place on the backside of the insulating board with a hot melt synthetic resin. This can prevent possible penetration of moisture or corrosive gases into the circuitry-accommodating portion by the insulation sealing of the FET, even though the electrode lead passes through an opening of the insulating board. Thus, corrosion of the circuit parts can surely be avoided.
