Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gasoline pump equipment testing technology, and in particular to a tooling for testing the sealing performance of a high-pressure oil pump plunger seal ring. Background Technology
[0002] In modern engine systems, the high-pressure fuel pump plays a crucial role. Typically driven by the engine's camshaft, the high-pressure fuel pump operates by the camshaft's rotation pushing the pump's plunger in a high-speed reciprocating motion. This high-speed reciprocating motion delivers fuel at high pressure to the engine's combustion chamber, ensuring normal engine operation and power output.
[0003] During the operation of a high-pressure fuel pump, the sealing ring that mates with the pump plunger plays a crucial sealing role. The sealing performance of this ring directly affects the performance of the high-pressure fuel pump and even the entire engine. However, current high-pressure fuel pump plunger sealing rings suffer from poor sealing. When the sealing ring fails to seal properly, it can lead to a series of serious consequences. On the one hand, it can cause a decrease in engine power and fuel efficiency, affecting the overall performance and economy of the engine. On the other hand, severe leaks may cause fuel to leak into the engine compartment. The engine compartment contains high-temperature components; if leaked fuel encounters high temperatures or open flames, it can easily ignite a fire, posing a serious safety hazard to the vehicle and its occupants.
[0004] Currently, testing technologies for plunger seal leakage rates are inadequate, making it difficult to reliably and effectively detect leaks within design tolerances. This allows some high-pressure oil pumps with potential sealing problems to enter the market, increasing the risk of engine malfunctions and safety accidents. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a testing system capable of reliably and effectively detecting plunger seal leakage rates within design tolerances to ensure the normal operation of high-pressure oil pumps, improve engine performance and safety, and reduce the probability of safety accidents such as fires caused by fuel leaks.

[0017] Furthermore, the driving mechanism is a cylinder.
[0018] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further technical solution is that the insertion depth of the detection rod into the sealing ring is controlled by moving the detection rod through the cylinder.

[0032] The following specific embodiments illustrate the implementation of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this utility model from the content disclosed in this specification. Although the description of this utility model will be presented in conjunction with preferred embodiments, this does not mean that the features of this utility model are limited to this embodiment. On the contrary, the purpose of describing the utility model in conjunction with the embodiments is to cover other options or modifications that may be derived based on the claims of this utility model. To provide a deep understanding of this utility model, many specific details will be included in the following description. This utility model may also be implemented without using these details.

[0033] See Figures 1 to 6 A high-pressure oil pump plunger sealing ring sealing performance testing fixture includes a frame, a drive mechanism 1, and an airtightness testing mechanism. The airtightness testing mechanism includes a connected testing rod 2 and a testing instrument. The testing rod 2 includes a first end and a second end, with the first end communicating with the testing instrument. The drive mechanism 1 is mounted on the frame and connected to the testing rod 2, used to drive the second end of the testing rod 2 into the sealing ring inside the sealing cap 10. The outer diameter of the testing rod 2 is adapted to the inner diameter of the sealing ring. At least one through hole 11 is provided circumferentially on the testing rod 2, and the through hole 11 communicates the sealing ring and the testing instrument.
[0034] The high-pressure oil pump plunger seal ring sealing performance testing fixture also includes a second drive mechanism 14, a sealing cap positioning mechanism 15, and a sensor 16. The sensor 16 is used to sense the presence or absence of a sealing cap 10. When the sensor 16 detects the presence of a sealing cap 10, the first drive mechanism 11 controls the detection rod 2 to fall for a sealing performance test. The frame includes a base 4, a bracket 5, a first connector 6, a second connector 7, a third connector 8, and a fourth connector 9. The base 4 is connected to the bracket 5. The first drive mechanism 11 is connected to the bracket 5 via the first connector 6. The detection rod 2 is connected to the output end of the first drive mechanism 11 via the second connector 7. The second connector 7 is connected to the third connector 8. The second drive mechanism 14... 14 is mounted on the connecting member 3 8. The output end of the driving mechanism 2 14 is connected to the connecting member 4 9. The connecting member 4 9 is used to fix the sealing cap positioning mechanism 15. The driving mechanism 2 14 can drive the sealing cap positioning mechanism 15 to move vertically. The detection rod 2 is detachably connected to the connecting member 2 7, and the sealing cap positioning mechanism 15 is detachably connected to the connecting member 4 9. Specifically, the detection rod 2 and the connecting member 2 7, and the sealing cap positioning mechanism 15 and the connecting member 4 9 are all connected by bolts. The connecting member 2 7 and the connecting member 4 9 are both L-shaped structural parts, which facilitates connection with the detection rod 2 and the sealing cap positioning mechanism 15, respectively. After the sealing test is completed, the driving mechanism 1 drives the detection rod 2 to move upward, thereby pulling it out of the sealing cap 10. During this process, the output end of the driving mechanism 2 14 moves downward, causing the sealing cap positioning mechanism 15 to fix and press the sealing cap 10, preventing the sealing cap 10 from being lifted.
[0035] See Figures 3 to 5 The second end of the detection rod 2 has a tapered structure and is made of high-strength 304 stainless steel. There are four through holes 11, which are evenly distributed around the circumference of the detection rod 2, and the diameter of each through hole 11 is 0.8 mm. The end of the detection rod 2 near the first end is provided with a positioning boss 12, and the positioning boss 12 is provided with a threaded hole 13 to realize the threaded connection between the detection rod 2 and the connecting piece 2 7.
[0036] Both drive mechanism 1 and drive mechanism 2 are high-precision cylinders; the detector is an ATEQ airtightness detector.
[0037] See Figure 6When testing the sealing performance of a high-pressure oil pump plunger seal ring using the high-pressure oil pump plunger seal ring sealing performance testing fixture provided by this utility model, firstly, the testing rod 2 is fixed to the connecting part 2 7 with bolts. Then, the sealing cap positioning mechanism 15, which is fixed with the sealing cap 10, is fixed to the connecting part 4 9 with bolts. Then, the driving mechanism 1 drives the testing rod 2 to approach the sealing cap 10, so that the second end of the testing rod 2 is inserted into the sealing ring inside the sealing cap 10, making the outer wall of the testing rod 2 tightly fit with the inner wall of the sealing ring to form a seal. Then, 5 Bar compressed air is injected into the sealing ring through the first end of the testing rod 2. Subsequently, the first end of the testing rod 2 is connected to the testing instrument through a nylon tube. By monitoring the pressure change, the gas leakage rate of the sealing ring is detected.
[0038] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
