Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of high-speed diesel engines, and particularly to a sealing test tooling device and a test method for a cylinder head of a high-speed diesel engine. Background Art

[0002] The cylinder head of a high-speed diesel engine has a complex structure and undertakes multiple tasks. Firstly, it seals the lower plane of the cylinder and forms a combustion chamber with the piston and cylinder liner. Secondly, it provides installation positions for many components, such as intake and exhaust valves and their transmission mechanisms, fuel injectors, starting valves, pressure reducing valves, etc. Inside the cylinder head of a high-speed diesel engine, there are also intake and exhaust air passages, a cooling water cavity, and a lubricating oil passage.

[0003] Since the cylinder head of a high-speed diesel engine bears a large gas pressure and thermal stress during operation, at the same time, the pre-tightening force of the cylinder head bolts causes the cylinder head to be subjected to compressive stress, and together with the gas, the cylinder head is subjected to bending; the temperature distribution of the cylinder head is uneven, generating additional thermal stress, and coupled with the complex structural shape, the stress distribution is uneven. Therefore, the material and structural dimensions of the cylinder head should ensure its sufficient sealing performance and reliable cooling. Therefore, it is very necessary to effectively test the sealing performance of the cylinder head.

[0004] After retrieval, it is found that:

[0005] The Chinese utility model patent "Leakage Test Tooling for Cylinder Head" with the publication number CN202735034U includes a bottom plate, on which there are at least one bottom water hole sealing gasket, at least one air inlet joint, and at least one clamping head support. At least one clamping head is provided on the clamping head support, where: the bottom water hole sealing gasket is used to seal the bottom water hole of the cylinder head, the air inlet joint is used to supply air into the cylinder head during leakage testing, and the clamping head is used to fasten the cylinder head. The present utility model adopts an integral frame, and small sealing gaskets are used to replace the original whole sealing gasket at the leakage testing positions corresponding to the cylinder head on the frame, which can prevent the introduction of interference errors during the leakage testing process, is convenient to operate, and will not damage the thread. This tooling has the following technical problems: the positioning support, sealing gasket support, and positioning pins protruding on the bottom plate need to be very careful during the seating process of the cylinder head bottom surface. If the sealing hole alignment operation is improper, the protruding design is likely to scratch the machined surface of the cylinder head and cause damage to the cylinder head. Moreover, for a cylinder head with more bottom cavity holes, more protrusions will be required, and too many protrusions will cause difficulties in accurately aligning and stably installing the cylinder head holes with the protruding gaskets and holes; in addition, for the sealing gasket designed on the protruding support, it is not specified whether the protruding sealing gasket is inserted into the cylinder head hole or covers the cylinder head hole. In summary, this design is suitable for cylinder heads with small volume, light weight, and fewer bottom holes, and has poor applicability for cylinder heads with larger volume, weight, and more bottom and top cavity holes. The bottom hole sealing and positioning operation requirements are more complex, and the convex platform design makes it easy for the cylinder head to be unstable when placed.

[0006] The Chinese utility model patent "Leakage Testing Tooling for Engine Cylinder Head Over-Pin Holes" with the publication number CN207280693U includes a leakage testing bottom plate, on the upper surface of which a sealing glue is provided. The leakage testing bottom plate is used to seal the bottom of the engine cylinder head; and a screw rod, which is arranged through the leakage testing bottom plate. The head of the screw rod has a threaded section, and an axial slot is provided on the threaded section. During leakage testing, after the over-pin hole of the engine cylinder head passes through the screw rod, it is locked by a nut, and the slot is used to discharge the gas in the over-pin hole. This leakage testing tooling effectively avoids the occurrence of wrong or missed parts. However, this tooling has the following technical problems: The fastening and sealing method of welding the screw rod to the bottom plate after passing through the bottom plate makes the installation operation of the tooling complex, the universality poor, and the test cost increase.

[0086] The test method provided by this embodiment may include the following steps:

[0087] S100, Install the test tooling device on the cylinder head to be inspected, connect the cavity of the cylinder head to the compressed air pipeline, and immerse it in a heat-insulating hot water pool at a set temperature for m minutes so that the temperature of the cylinder head reaches the set temperature;

[0088] S200, Open each compressed air pipeline in turn, introduce air at a certain pressure for n minutes, observe whether bubbles emerge from the cylinder head in the water, and then judge whether the airtightness of the cavity of the cylinder head meets the requirements.

[0090] In a specific application example of S100, m ranges from 10 to 15.

[0091] In a specific application example of S200, n ranges from 5 to 10.

[0092] In a specific application example of S100, the pressure of the introduced air is 1 to 2 bar.

[0093] It should be noted that the steps in the method provided by the present invention can be implemented by corresponding components and devices in the system. Those skilled in the art can refer to the technical solution of the system to implement the step flow of the method. That is, the embodiments in the system can be understood as preferred examples for implementing the method, which will not be elaborated here.

[0094] The following further describes the technical solutions provided by the above embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0095] The purpose of the above embodiments of the present invention is to design a test tooling device for testing the airtightness of a high-speed diesel engine cylinder head. This device has the characteristics of simple operation, reliable use, high accuracy, etc. Through the test, it can be verified that the cylinder head can effectively meet the use requirements of the diesel engine.

[0096] As Figure 1As shown, the test fixture device provided by the above embodiment of the present invention includes an intake support base plate 1, fasteners and seals. Among them, the intake support base plate 1 is the basis for the sealing test. Among the fasteners and seals of the test fixture device: 4 studs 2, 4 nuts 8 and 4 fastening gaskets 7 are used to fasten the intake support base plate 1 to the cylinder head; the sealing block 13 seals the outlet of the lubricating oil cavity on the upper surface of the cylinder head through 2 first bolts 11, 2 first gaskets 12 and 1 sealing gasket 14; the triangular sealing block 4 seals the water outlet on the upper surface of the cylinder head through 3 second bolts 6, 3 second gaskets 5 and 1 triangular sealing plate; the first screw plug 9 and the third gasket 10 are used to seal the starting valve mounting hole on the cylinder head; the second screw plug 18 and the first sealing ring 19 are used to seal the pressure reducing valve mounting hole.

[0097] like Figure 2 As shown, the air intake support base plate 1 is specifically:

[0098] 1. The intake support bottom plate 1 is rectangular in shape. Its overall shape, relative position and size of the surface holes are designed according to the cylinder head dimensions: 458mm long, 344mm wide, and 25mm thick. A Φ130mm hole is opened at the position of 172mm / 172mm from the two long sides and 192mm / 266mm from the two short sides. This hole can prevent the plate from contacting and sealing with the bottom surface of the cylinder head, causing abnormal bubbling during the test and affecting the airtightness determination. The upper surface contacts and cooperates with the bottom surface of the cylinder head (cylinder explosion surface) during assembly.

[0099] 2. Four air intake interfaces 21 are installed on the three sides of the air intake support base plate 1, which can be connected to the compressed air pipe quick connector to achieve fast switching connection; the four interfaces are connected with the four air ports b1, b2, c1, and c3 on the upper surface of the corresponding base plate through the inner cavity of the base plate, and the four air ports are connected with the corresponding cavity ports on the bottom surface of the cylinder head, and are sealed through the corresponding sealing groove and its internal sealing ring (i.e., the fifth group of sealing components). Figure 2 Middle: a is an M24 screw hole.

[0100] 3. The intake support base plate 1 is designed with fastening bolt holes according to the position and size of the cylinder head fastening bolt holes, and the intake support base plate 1 is installed and fixed on the bottom plane of the cylinder head through the studs 2, nuts 8 and fastening gaskets 7. The air port b1 cooperates with the cylinder head starting valve hole cavity, and the air port b2 cooperates with the cylinder head pressure reducing valve hole cavity.

[0101] 4. The upper ring groove of the intake support base plate 1 is designed according to the position and size of the cavity opening on the bottom surface of the cylinder head. It seals the cavity opening on the bottom surface of the cylinder head through 7 sealing rings a15, 1 sealing ring b16 and 1 sealing ring c17 in the sixth group of sealing components.

[0102] like Figure 3As shown in (a) and (b), the thread specification of the stud 2 is M24×350, and a groove with a length of 150 mm, a width of 4 mm and a depth of 4 mm is opened at the head of the screw rod. The function of this groove is as follows: after the entire test tooling is assembled and placed in the water tank, water infiltrates into the cylinder head stud hole along this groove, avoiding the air being sealed in the cylinder head bolt hole after tightening the stud bolt, which may affect the judgment of the sealing test.

[0103] As Figure 4 As shown in (a) and (b), for the triangular sealing block 4 and the gasket 3, the key lies in the relative positions of the three Φ10 mm holes on the sealing block, that is, the centers of the three holes on the triangular sealing block 4 are at the three vertices of an equilateral triangle with a base of 60 mm and an opposite side of 55.8 mm, which can ensure that the M10×30 bolt 6 is installed through the screw hole at the cooling water outlet of the cylinder head to fasten the sealing block and seal the outlet.

[0104] As Figure 5 As shown in (a) and (b), for the sealing block 13 and the gasket 14, the key lies in the positions of the two Φ16 holes. The strip-shaped sealing block 13 is 128 mm long and 30 mm wide. The center of the left-lower Φ16 mm hole is 11 mm away from the adjacent long side and 14 mm away from the short side, and the center of the other upper-right Φ16 mm hole is 13 mm away from the adjacent long side and 14 mm away from the short side.

[0105] The thread of the plug 9 and the plug 18 is M35 and M24 respectively, which are used to seal the air holes on the top surface of the cylinder head.

[0106] The sealing test method implemented based on the test tooling device provided in the above embodiments of the present invention is specifically as follows:

[0107] Install the test tooling device on the inspection cylinder head. Connect the cavity to be inspected to the quick connector of the compressed air inlet at the corresponding interface on the bottom plate (such as the b1 port connector), connect the cavity to be inspected to the compressed air pipeline, immerse the entire test cylinder head in a thermostatic hot water bath at 80 + 5 °C and let it stand for about 10 minutes until the temperature of the cylinder head body reaches 80 + 5 °C (the temperature of the cylinder head body can be measured by a dot thermometer). Then open the compressed air pipeline to introduce air at a certain pressure (such as 1 bar) for 5 minutes, and observe whether bubbles will emerge from the cylinder head in the water. If no bubbles are generated during the ventilation process, the cavity has good sealing performance; if continuous bubbles emerge from a certain part of the cylinder head, the sealing performance of the detected cavity / cylinder head is poor; if a few bubbles emerge occasionally from a certain part but no bubbles are generated subsequently, the cavity has good sealing performance. After detecting that a certain cavity has good sealing performance, switch to connect the air inlet of the intake support bottom plate (such as c1), and detect another cavity in the same way. If continuous bubbles continuously appear, confirm the bubble outlet. The bubble outlet can be found by increasing the ventilation pressure (such as 4 bar). When it is confirmed that the bubbles do not come from the test tooling, it can be confirmed that the bubbles come from the cylinder head cavity, and the sealing performance of the cylinder head is poor and cannot meet the requirements for use in a diesel engine. By switching to connect all the air inlets of the intake support bottom plate to introduce compressed air at a certain pressure and maintaining it for a certain period of time, if no continuous bubbles continuously emerge during the whole process, it can be determined that the sealing performance of all the detected cavities is good, and further it shows that the sealing performance of the cylinder head is good.
