[0035] The specific implementation of the present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific implementation described here is only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, and is not used to limit the present invention.
[0036] like Figure 1-6 As shown, the present invention provides an electronic water pump electric control cavity inspection device, the device comprising: a cabinet 1, an airtightness detector 14 and a plurality of sets of airtight tooling uniformly arranged inside the cabinet 1 and used to fix the electronic water pump;
[0037] Each set of the airtight tooling comprises: a lower base 2 with a hollow interior, a lower mold 3 fixed on the lower base 2, and an upper mold 4 horizontally and liftably arranged in the cabinet 1 and capable of covering and being on the lower mold 3; wherein,
[0038] The lower base 2 located inside the lower mold 3 is vertically penetrated with an air outlet 8 connected with the interior thereof, and a No. 1 sealing ring 7 is also horizontally fixedly provided on the upper end of the lower base 2. The bottom end of the lower mold 3 can abut against the No. 1 sealing ring 7, and a No. 2 sealing ring 9 is horizontally fixedly provided on the upper end of the lower mold 3. The lower mold 3 and the upper mold 4 are respectively provided with a lower mold cavity and an upper mold cavity adapted to the pump body, so that the lower mold cavity of the lower mold 3 and the upper mold cavity of the upper mold 4 are spliced together to form a sealed mold cavity for clamping the pump body, and the lower mold 3 is also fixedly provided with an air injection pipe connected with the interior thereof, and the air injection pipe is connected to the air outlet end connected to the airtightness detector 14, and the air inlet end of the airtightness detector 14 is connected to an external air source.
[0039] In the above scheme, the airtight tooling is provided in two or more groups. In this embodiment, taking two groups as an example, two groups of airtight tooling are provided in the cabinet 1, and the air injection pipes of the two lower bases 2 of the two groups of airtight tooling are respectively connected to the air outlet ends of the two airtight detectors 14, and the two groups of airtight tooling can work simultaneously or separately.
[0040] When in use, the electronic water pump to be tested is placed in the lower mold cavity of the lower mold 3, and the upper mold 4 is driven to descend linearly in the longitudinal direction until it abuts against the lower mold 3, so that the upper mold 4 covers the lower mold 3 to form a sealed mold cavity, thereby enclosing the electronic water pump to be tested in the sealed mold cavity, and when the upper mold 4 descends and abuts against the lower mold 3, the bottom end of the upper mold 4 squeezes the No. 2 sealing ring 9 on the lower mold 3, so that the connection between the upper mold 4 and the lower mold 3 is in a sealed state, thereby improving the sealing of the sealed mold cavity formed by the upper mold 4 and the lower mold 3. Connect the airtightness detector 14 to the factory air source (or booster pump). This step ensures a stable supply of air source and is a prerequisite for gas injection. The gas is accurately and effectively injected into the lower base 2 through the gas injection pipe through the airtightness detector 14, and finally enters the sealed cavity formed by the upper mold 4 and the lower mold 3 through the air outlet 8 on the lower base 2. In addition, the No. 1 sealing ring 7 on the bottom of the lower mold 3 is to ensure the sealing between the lower mold 3 and the lower base 2, and prevent the gap between the lower mold 3 and the lower base 2 from affecting the sealing inside the sealed cavity. The airtightness detector 14 is used to detect the rate at which gas leaks out of the product being tested. According to the size of the leakage rate, it can be judged whether the airtightness of the product being tested is qualified.
[0041] The detection steps of the airtight detector 14 include:
[0042] Step 1: Connect the gas source and gas line: First, the air tightness tester needs to be connected to the factory gas source (or booster pump), and the gas source pressure is maintained at 4.5-7 bar. This step ensures the stable supply of the gas source and is a prerequisite for gas injection; the medium gas is compressed air.
[0043] Step 2: Set test parameters: According to product requirements and test standards, set test pressure, test time, leakage and other parameters. The setting of these parameters is directly related to the accuracy and efficiency of the test and is the key to ensuring the quality of the test;
[0044] The detection cycle is: gas injection time is 30s, detection time is 46s, the detection display accuracy of the airtightness detector 14 is 0.1Pa or 0.001ml / min; the test air pressure is 300kPa, the leakage of the electric control chamber is less than 5Pa / s, and the minimum gas supply pressure is not less than 0.6MPa; the gas source quality is ISO 8573-1 4 or above (oil content: <7mg / m3; particle size: <0.001mm).
[0045] In addition, please note: the compressed air must be clean and dry. It is best to install a filter and a drying device before the compressed air enters the measuring machine.
[0046] Step 3: Place the product: Place the product to be tested (electronic water pump) in an airtight tooling (that is, place the electronic water pump to be tested in a sealed mold cavity formed by the upper mold 4 and the lower mold 3), and ensure that the seal between the product and the fixture is good to prevent external air from affecting the test results.
[0047] Step 4: Start the test: Press the start button, and the airtightness detector 14 starts to fill the sealed mold cavity of the airtight tooling with compressed air. Within the set time, the change of the internal pressure of the product is detected.
[0048] Therefore, through the above steps, the airtightness detector 14 can accurately and effectively inject compressed air into the airtight tooling for sealing and storing the electronic water pump to be tested, and use the leakage detection method to determine whether the airtightness of the electronic water pump is qualified. The leakage detection method is a method of directly detecting the gas leakage rate to determine the airtightness performance of the product. The basic principle is: the product to be tested is placed in a closed test environment and filled with a certain pressure of gas. Then, the rate at which the gas leaks out of the product to be tested is detected by the airtightness detector 14. According to the size of the leakage rate, it can be determined whether the airtightness performance of the product to be tested is qualified. The whole process has a high degree of automation and is simple to operate, which can effectively guarantee the quality and performance of the electronic water pump.
[0049] In summary, the airtight tooling of the present invention can quickly seal the product to be tested in the sealed mold cavity formed by its splicing, is easy to operate, improves the detection efficiency, and can detect multiple products to be tested during the detection process, further improving work efficiency.

[0057] In the above scheme, when in use, the upper base 5 and the upper mold 4 fixed on the upper base 5 are driven to rise and fall in the vertical direction by driving the servo electric cylinder 16.
[0058] When the service electric cylinder 16 drives the upper base 5 and the upper mold 4 thereon to descend to the corresponding lower mold 3, the upper mold 4 and the lower mold 3 are abutted against each other to form a sealed mold cavity for holding the electronic water pump to be tested, so that the electronic water pump to be tested is sealed in the sealed mold cavity formed by the upper mold 4 and the lower mold 4 to wait for testing.
[0059] After the inspection is completed, the upper base 5 and the upper mold 4 thereon are driven to rise by the service electric cylinder 16 to separate the upper mold 4 from the lower mold 3 and restore them to their initial positions, so as to remove the electronic water pump after the inspection.

[0061] In the above scheme, the guide sleeve 12 and the guide rod 11 are used in coordination, so that the upper base 5 can drive the upper mold 4 to be lifted and lowered smoothly and reliably along the guide rod 11 through the guide sleeve 12 .
[0062] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a lighting lamp 17 is fixedly installed inside the cabinet 1 .
[0063] In the above solution, the interior environment of the cabinet 1 can be illuminated by the lighting lamp 17, so that the interior of the cabinet 1 is bright and convenient for the staff to operate.
