[0039] During the implementation of the present invention, the bottle body 25 is first placed in the sealed box 2, and the bottle body 25 is clamped by two arc-shaped sleeves 18. Then the rotating plate 5 is rotated to make it horizontal. At this time, the sealing head 8 is located on the bottle mouth side of the bottle body 25. Then the first shift motor 10 is started to drive the sealing head 8 to move to seal the bottle mouth of the bottle body 25.

[0043] The second is that the air pressure in the sealing box 2 remains unchanged within a unit time after the first sealing sleeve 27 presses the outside of the bottle body 25, indicating that the leakage location is at the contact point between the first sealing sleeve 27 and the bottle body 25.
