Patent ID: 8534130

Claim:
A pressure sensor sub-assembly comprising: a carrier forming a fluid path from a first end of the carrier to a second end of the carrier; a pressure sensor including a pressure sense element, the pressure sensor being secured to the first end of the carrier such that the pressure sense element is in fluid communication with the fluid path of the carrier; a pressure port having a fluid path that extends from an external side of the pressure port to an internal side of the pressure port, wherein the internal side of the pressure port is secured to the second end of the carrier such that the fluid path of the pressure port is in fluid communication with the fluid path of the carrier; the internal side of the pressure port has a recess, the recess defined by a bottom wall and side walls, wherein the bottom wall intersects the fluid path of the pressure port, and wherein the bottom wall includes an upwardly extending lip that extends around the fluid path of the pressure port; the second end of the carrier has an end face and side walls around the end face, wherein the second end of the carrier extends into the recess of the pressure port, with the end face of the carrier situated adjacent to the bottom wall of the recess, and the side walls of the carrier positioned adjacent to the side walls of the recess; and an adhesive layer situated between the end face of the carrier and the bottom wall of the recess.
