[0091] In the description of the invention, it should be understood that the description indicating the orientation or positional relationship is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings and is only for the convenience of describing the invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the invention.

[0092] In the description of the invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "disposed", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two elements. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0093] The inventive concept of the present invention is as follows: the pump is driven to work by a motor to simulate the actual working condition of the pump, thereby testing the pump to determine whether the quality of the pump after maintenance meets the requirements.

[0094] (1) If the pump 100 leaks after maintenance, the liquid will leak into the first liquid receiving tray 4, and then be detected by the first leakage detection device 5, and fed back to the PLC 6, so that the pump 100 can be detected to be leaking;

[0095] (2) Since the pump 100 is driven by the motor 3, the load change of the pump 100 will be transmitted to the motor 3. Therefore, the load change of the pump 100 can be obtained by detecting the load change of the motor 3. The load change range of the motor 3 can be preset, and the detected data is compared with the preset range. When it exceeds the preset range, it indicates that the load of the pump 100 is unqualified, that is, the maintenance is unqualified. If it is within the preset range, it indicates that the load of the pump 100 is qualified.

[0096] The preset load variation range of the motor 3 can be tested in advance with a qualified pump 100 to detect the preset range, wherein the motor 3 is of the same model as that used in actual production, and the liquid delivered to the pump 100 is also the same as that in actual production, such as the first sealed container 71 containing photoresist liquid, and the second sealed container 72 containing PGMEA liquid, and other operating parameters also simulate actual production.

[0097] (3) The function of the second leakage detection device 70 is to detect whether the first sealed container 71 or the second sealed container 81 is leaking, to ensure the quality of the two containers themselves, and to play a role in safety protection. This is because the two containers will be inflated and pressurized during the detection process. If there is a leak, the liquid in the container will seep out, affecting the test effect.

The second liquid filling port 813 is used to add liquid into the second sealed container 81, and the second plug 814 is used to plug the seal after the addition is completed.

[0156] Specific usage:

[0157] Set up working procedures.

[0158] The PLC presets the load variation range of the motor 3 in advance.

[0159] Photoresist liquid is injected into the first sealed container 71, and PGMEA liquid is injected into the second sealed container 81. The motor 3 is a stepping motor.

[0160] The first liquid leakage detection device 5 and the second liquid leakage detection device 70 may be liquid leakage sensors.

[0161] The first travel switch 105 and the second travel switch 106 are fixed on the pump fixing base 2 and are respectively connected to the PLC for communication, wherein the first travel switch 105 corresponds to the piston rod of the pump 100 extending into position, and the second travel switch 106 corresponds to the piston rod retracting into position.

[0162] The pump 100 is installed vertically downward on the pump fixing base 2, and the plum bolt 28 and the piston rod of the pump 100 are fixed.

[0163] The manual valve 30 is in a normally open state.

[0164] Press the power switch 90, PLC6 works according to the preset working procedure:

[0165] PLC6 controls the third solenoid valve 76 to open the gas circuit, and the compressed gas is filled into the first sealed container 71. At the same time, PLC controls the first solenoid valve 73 to ventilate and connect the first air-controlled valve 72, and controls the second solenoid valve 74 to ventilate and connect the second air-controlled valve 72, and controls the fifth solenoid valve 85 to ventilate and connect the fourth air-controlled valve 84; at the same time, it also controls the motor 3 to rotate forward; at this time, the motor 3 drives the screw rod to rotate forward, thereby driving the piston rod to extend downward. On the other hand, the compressed gas pressurizes the photoresist liquid in the first sealed container 71 and transports it into the upper liquid inlet 101, pushing the piston rod to extend downward, and the photoresist liquid then flows back into the first sealed container 71 from the upper liquid outlet 102, and the lower cavity is in a pressure relief state, and the PGMEA liquid is discharged from the lower liquid outlet 104 to the discharge container 9. When the piston rod is extended downward to the full position, it is sensed by the first stroke switch 105, and the first stroke switch 105 feeds back a signal to PLC6;

[0166] Then PLC6 controls the motor 3 to reverse, and controls the sixth solenoid valve 86 to open the air circuit, and the compressed gas is filled into the second sealed container 81. At the same time, PLC controls the third solenoid valve 76 to close the air circuit, and controls the first solenoid valve 73 to cut off the air to close the first air control valve 72, and controls the second air control valve 72 and the fourth air control valve 84 to continue to be connected, and also controls the fourth solenoid valve 83 to ventilate to connect the third air control valve 82; at this time, the motor 3 drives the screw rod to reverse, thereby driving the piston rod to retract upward. On the other hand, the compressed gas pressurizes the PGMEA liquid in the second sealed container 81 and transports it into the lower liquid inlet 103, pushing the piston rod to retract upward, and the PGMEA liquid is then discharged from the lower liquid outlet 104 to the discharge container 9; while the upper cavity is in a pressure relief state, and the photoresist liquid is discharged from the upper liquid outlet 102 to the first sealed container 71. When the piston rod retracts upward to its position, it is sensed by the second stroke switch 106, and the second stroke switch 106 feeds back a signal to PLC6;

[0167] The pump completes one telescopic movement, and similarly, PLC6 controls motor 3 to drive the piston rod of pump 100 to perform reciprocating telescopic movement until the detection is completed.

[0168] During this process, if the pump leaks, the liquid will drip into the first liquid receiving tray 4 and then be detected by the first leakage detection device 5, which will feed back a signal to PLC6. PLC6 will control the alarm device 80 to issue an alarm prompt, display the leakage on the control panel 61, and control each component to stop working and wait for staff to handle it.

[0169] On the other hand, when the piston rod of the pump 100 is in the process of extension and retraction, the load change of the motor 3 is fed back to the PLC6 in real time. The PLC records, saves and generates a load change curve. If it exceeds the preset change range, the PLC6 controls the alarm device 80 to issue an alarm prompt, and displays the load abnormality on the control panel 61, and controls each component to stop working and wait for staff to handle it.

[0170] After completing the test, PLC6 disconnects the power supply and automatically turns off the power.
