Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of airtightness detectors, and in particular to an airtightness inspection instrument for an alumina ceramic seal. Background Art

[0002] An air tightness tester for alumina ceramic seals usually uses some of the above-mentioned methods to detect the air tightness of ceramic seals. Alumina ceramics are often used as seal materials due to their excellent physical and chemical properties, such as high strength, high hardness, good wear resistance and corrosion resistance. When conducting air tightness inspections on alumina ceramic seals, factors such as operating environment, temperature, humidity, etc. must also be considered to ensure the accuracy of the test results. At the same time, different testing technologies may need to be used according to different application requirements and test standards;

[0003] The existing method for checking the air tightness of ceramics is mainly the pressure difference method: by applying internal pressure on the ceramic workpiece, and then using a pressure sensor to monitor the change in gas pressure. If there is a leak, the gas pressure will drop, and by comparing the pressure change with the set leakage standard, the air tightness of the ceramic workpiece can be judged;

[0004] The shortcomings of the above scheme are: since changes in environmental factors such as temperature and humidity during detection may affect the diffusion rate of the gas and the performance of the pressure sensor, which may affect the accuracy of the test results, and the existing detection equipment generally does not have a control group when performing airtightness testing. The control group can help confirm whether there is a false negative result in the test process, that is, there is actually a leak in the ceramic sample. If a control group is not set in the ceramic airtightness inspection, unqualified products may be mistakenly judged as qualified, which may affect the technical issues of product quality. Summary of the invention
