[0043] The working principle of the airtightness testing device 10 for testing the airtightness of products is as follows: (1) Open the butterfly nut 900 and the upper cover plate 300, and place the electronic component 20 to be tested in the pressurized chamber; (2) Cover the upper cover plate 300 and lock the butterfly nut 900; (3) The vacuum chamber is evacuated by a vacuum pump connected to the gas detection element, and a vacuum condition is formed in the vacuum chamber. The electronic component 20 to be tested presses against the base 200 under the pressure difference, forming a sealing condition; (4) Pressurization will pass the detection gas into the pressurized chamber through the quick connector; (5) Close the ball valve and maintain the pressure for a period of time; (6) The gas detection element outputs the test result; (7) Open the ball valve to release the detection gas, and the airtightness test of the electronic component can be completed.

The upper cover plate 300 and the base 200 are closed to form a pressurized chamber, and the base 200 and the lower cover plate 100 are closed to form a vacuum chamber. This allows the electronic component 20 to be tested to be placed in the pressurized chamber, and then the vacuum chamber can be evacuated to create a vacuum condition. Afterward, the pressurizing element introduces a detection gas into the pressurized chamber, and the data detected by the gas detection element is observed, thus completing the airtightness testing of the electronic component 10. This eliminates the need for manual application of foam to electronic components, followed by immersion in liquid and manual observation of the presence of bubbles to determine airtightness. This significantly reduces the time required for manual testing, thus improving the efficiency of airtightness testing. Furthermore, the airtightness testing device 10 is simple in structure, consisting of an upper cover plate 300, a lower cover plate 100, a base 200, a gas detection element, and a pressurizing element. It is easy to install and disassemble during operation, further reducing installation and disassembly time and improving overall airtightness testing efficiency.

[0045] In this application, by setting a sealing plug 280, the number of detection positions of electronic components can be increased or decreased according to the yield rate of the produced electronic components during the airtightness test, thereby improving the detection accuracy of electronic components and the detection efficiency of airtightness of electronic components.

[0066] This application provides a method for testing the airtightness of electronic components. The airtightness testing device provided in this application is mainly composed of an upper cover plate, a lower cover plate, a base, a gas detection element, and a pressurizing element. The upper cover plate and the base together form a pressurized chamber, and the base and the lower cover plate together form a vacuum chamber. After placing the electronic component to be tested in the pressurized chamber, the vacuum chamber is evacuated to create a vacuum condition. Then, the pressurizing element introduces a detection gas into the pressurized chamber, and the data detected by the gas detection element is observed. This completes the airtightness testing of the electronic component without the need for manually applying foam to the electronic component, placing it in a liquid, and manually observing the presence of bubbles to determine if the airtightness of the electronic component is acceptable. The method has a simple structure, is easy to operate, and greatly shortens the testing time, thus improving the efficiency of airtightness testing of electronic components.

[0067] Please see Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating the airtightness testing method for electronic components provided in this application. This application also provides an airtightness testing method for electronic components, using the airtightness testing device 10 provided in this application for testing, specifically including:

[0068] S11. Open the top cover and base, and place the electronic component to be tested in the pressurized chamber. The cavity of the electronic component to be tested is sealed to the vacuum chamber through the vent hole.

[0069] Specifically, the wing nut 900 and the spherical bearing 800 are disassembled; then, the upper cover plate 300 and the base 200 are opened, and the electronic component 20 to be tested is placed on the sealing gasket 400. The cavity of the electronic component 20 to be tested is set to correspond with the through hole 410 of the sealing gasket 400, so that the cavity, through hole 410 and vent hole 230 of the electronic component 20 to be tested form a sealed area with the vacuum chamber. The positions corresponding to the through hole 410 and the vent hole 230 are the testing positions.

[0070] In one embodiment, after step S11, the method further includes:

[0071] Adjust the length of the second fixing member 330 until the second fixing member 330 can abut the electronic component 20 to be tested against the base 200.

[0072] S12. Seal the top cover plate with the base.

[0073] Specifically, the upper cover plate 300 is closed to the base 200; then, the wing nut 900 is assembled with the spherical bearing 800 and the wing nut 900 is locked to form a seal between the upper cover plate 300 and the base 200.

[0074] In one embodiment, if the number of electronic components 20 to be tested is less than the number of detection positions, after step S12, the method further includes: removing the third fixing member 600 from the fixing hole and fixing groove 220, opening the lower cover plate 100 and the base 200, placing a sealing plug 280 in the vent hole 230 where no electronic components 20 to be tested are provided; then, closing the lower cover plate 100 and the base 200, and inserting the third fixing member 600 through the fixing hole and fixing groove 220 to connect the lower cover plate 100 and the base 200.

[0075] S13. Evacuate the vacuum chamber.

[0076] Specifically, a vacuum pump connected to a gas detection device evacuates the vacuum chamber to create a vacuum condition.

[0077] S14. Test gas is introduced into the pressurized chamber through a pressurizing component connected to the pressurized chamber to test the electronic components to be tested in the pressurized chamber.

[0078] Specifically, the ball valve is opened, and the pressurizing component introduces the detection gas into the pressurizing chamber through the adapter 1000. At this time, the electronic component 20 to be tested presses against the sealing gasket 400 under the action of the pressure difference. Due to the deformation of the sealing gasket 400, a sealing condition is formed between the electronic component 20 to be tested and the sealing gasket 400. Then, observe whether the pressure value displayed on the pressure detection component 1200 is within the pressure threshold. If not, continue to introduce the detection gas into the pressurizing chamber. If it is, close the ball valve and maintain the pressure for a period of time.

[0079] S15. Analyze the data detected by the detection device connected to the vacuum chamber.

[0080] Specifically, the data detected by the test component is compared with the gas threshold to analyze whether the detected data is within the gas threshold. If it is, the airtightness of the electronic component 20 under test is qualified; if it is not, the airtightness of the electronic component 20 under test is unqualified, and there are defective products in the electronic component 20 under test. The airtightness test of the electronic component 20 under test is then completed.

[0081] In one embodiment, after step S15, the method further includes: opening the ball valve to release the detection gas in the pressurized chamber.

[0082] This application provides a method for testing the airtightness of electronic components. The airtightness testing device 10 provided in this application is used for airtightness testing. The airtightness testing device 10 mainly consists of an upper cover plate 300, a lower cover plate 100, a base 200, a gas detection element, and a pressurizing element. The upper cover plate 300 and the base 200 are closed to form a pressurized chamber, and the base 200 and the lower cover plate 100 are closed to form a vacuum chamber. After placing the electronic component 20 to be tested in the pressurized chamber, the vacuum chamber can be evacuated to create a vacuum condition. Then, the pressurizing element introduces a detection gas into the pressurized chamber, and the data detected by the gas detection element is observed. This completes the airtightness testing of the electronic component 10 without the need for manually applying foam to the electronic component, placing it in a liquid, and manually observing the presence of bubbles to determine if the airtightness of the electronic component is qualified. The method has a simple structure and is easy to operate, greatly shortening the testing time and improving the efficiency of airtightness testing of electronic components.
