[0002] Silicon carbide honeycomb ceramic carrier is a porous ceramic material with a high specific surface area and porosity, so it can be used as a carrier to carry various catalysts, adsorbents and other active substances. Honeycomb ceramic carriers are widely used in automobile exhaust purification, industrial waste gas treatment, catalyst carriers and other fields. In order to ensure that the filtration and adsorption performance of silicon carbide carriers meet the requirements of National VI, the finished silicon carbide carriers are currently required to undergo smoke leakage detection. If smoke leakage is detected, the finished silicon carbide carrier needs to be reworked or even scrapped.

[0030] As described in the background technology, the common problem encountered in the production process of silicon carbide honeycomb ceramic carriers is smoke leakage. The traditional detection method is to perform it in the entire carrier finished product stage, which is not only inefficient, but also often requires a lot of rework or scrapping once defects are found, thereby significantly increasing production costs. In view of the defects of the detection method, this application proposes a single green body smoke leakage detection device for silicon carbide honeycomb ceramic carriers, which performs smoke leakage detection at the single green body stage.
[0031] See Figures 1 to 6 In the embodiment, the single green body smoke leakage detection device of the silicon carbide honeycomb ceramic carrier comprises:
[0032] The water mist generating mechanism 100 comprises a water mist generator 101, and a smoke collecting hood 102 is arranged at the upper end of the water mist generator 101;
[0033] The blank clamping mechanism 200 includes a blank support plate 201, which is arranged at the upper end of the smoke hood 102. The blank support plate 201 is provided with a plurality of mist penetration areas 202 corresponding to the blank, and the blank 1 is placed on the mist penetration area 202. In the embodiment, the mist penetration area is made of a mesh plate. In other embodiments, a perforated plate, a filter screen, a screen, etc. can be used. The blank support plate 201 is provided with a plurality of blank clamping airbags 203. The blank clamping airbags 203 can be square or annular, as long as they can surround the blank 1. The blank clamping airbags 203 clamp the blank 1 to close the surrounding of the blank 1. The water mist generated by the water mist generating mechanism 100 can only pass through the mist penetration area 202 and pass through the blank 1 from the lower end of the blank 1 from bottom to top;
[0034] The laser emitting mechanism 300 includes a laser generator 301 . The laser emitted by the laser generator 301 can pass through the water mist flowing through the blank 1 , and is used to judge the smoke leakage of the blank 1 according to the color depth of the laser.
[0035] Water mist is a suspension composed of a large number of tiny water droplets. These tiny particles have a strong scattering effect on light. When light passes through the mist, scattering occurs, causing the light to scatter in all directions. Light of different wavelengths scatters differently in the mist. Light with shorter wavelengths scatters more strongly, while light with longer wavelengths scatters less strongly. Since lasers have high directivity and brightness, when the laser beam passes through water mist, the scattered light can still maintain a certain brightness and directionality due to its narrow beam and concentrated energy. This enables the laser beam to form a relatively bright and visible light path in the water mist. For billets with severe smoke leakage, there is also a lot of water mist passing through the billet. Therefore, the smoke leakage can be judged by the depth of the laser color. If the color is dark, there is smoke leakage, and vice versa, if the color is light, there is no smoke leakage.
[0036] The single-piece smoke leakage detection device of the silicon carbide honeycomb ceramic carrier in the embodiment effectively improves product quality and reduces production costs by introducing earlier detection points in the production process; through the combination of the laser emission mechanism and the water mist generation mechanism, an intuitive and simple way is provided for operators to observe and judge the smoke leakage of the body. This design improves the detection efficiency and reduces the dependence on the professional skills of the operator, realizing a batch of single-piece smoke leakage detection devices, which can accurately identify potential smoke leakage problems in the early stages of honeycomb ceramic carrier production, which helps to remove defective products in time, prevent defective products from entering the subsequent production process, and improve the quality of the final product. By performing smoke leakage detection in the early stages of production, the additional costs caused by rework and scrapping can be greatly reduced.
[0037] In one embodiment of the present invention, a blank support plate 201 is installed on a detection table 204, and a mounting groove support frame 205 is arranged on the blank support plate 201.

The blank clamping airbag 203 is installed in the airbag mounting groove 206. The mounting groove support frame 205 and the airbag mounting groove 206 are sealed around and at the upper end of the mist penetration area, which can further prevent fog leakage, so that the fog will not leak out from the area outside the mist penetration area 202. The blank clamping airbag 203 is inflated, clamped and sealed around the blank, so that the fog flows on the inner wall of the blank.
[0038] In the embodiment, the airbag mounting groove includes a supporting base plate 206C, and the upper end of the supporting base plate 206C is provided with a matching airbag mounting upper plate 206A and an airbag mounting lower plate 206B. The supporting base plate 206C, the airbag mounting upper plate 206A and the airbag mounting lower plate 206C are fixed together by bolts. The airbag mounting upper plate 206A and the airbag mounting lower plate 206B have an airbag positioning cavity 207 corresponding to the blank clamping airbag. The airbag mounting upper plate 206A and the airbag mounting lower plate 206B are also provided with an airbag pipeline avoidance groove 208. The setting of the airbag mounting groove can also prevent the airbag from aging and cracking and injuring people.
[0039] See Figure 7 In one embodiment, the blank clamping mechanism also includes a protective cover 209, and a window area is correspondingly arranged on the protective cover 209 to allow the blank clamping airbag and the blank to be exposed. The setting of the protective cover 209 protects the operator from possible airbag rupture and the equipment itself from damage by adding a protective cover around the blank clamping mechanism, thereby improving the safety and stability of the entire device.
[0040] In one embodiment, the protective cover includes a protective cover outer frame 209A and a protective cover inner frame 209B. The protective cover outer frame 209A is provided with a plurality of height adjustment holes 209C, and the protective cover inner frame 209B is provided with fixing holes. The protective cover outer frame and the protective cover inner frame are fixed together by bolts, nuts, the height adjustment holes and the fixing holes. The setting of the protective cover outer frame 209A and the protective cover inner frame 209B can flexibly adjust the height of the protective cover to meet the protection requirements of different models of height blanks.
[0041] In one embodiment, the mounting groove support frame 205 includes a support frame outer frame 205A and a support frame inner frame 205B. The protective cover outer frame 205A is provided with a plurality of height adjustment holes 205C, and the support frame inner frame is provided with fixing holes. The support frame outer frame and the support frame inner frame are fixed together by bolts, nuts, height adjustment holes and fixing holes. The detection height can be flexibly adjusted to meet the detection requirements of different models of height blanks.

[0043] In the embodiment, the laser emitting mechanism 100, the mounting slot support frame 205 and the protective cover 209 all have a height adjustment function, which can adapt to the requirements of blank detection at different heights, so that the same set of devices can be applied to products of various models, thereby improving the versatility and utilization rate of the equipment.
[0044] In one embodiment, the blank clamping airbag is connected to a pneumatic device through an airbag pipeline 212, and the pneumatic device includes an air source and a reversing valve 210. When inflation is required, the reversing valve switches to the inflation channel, so that the air source is connected to the blank clamping airbag, and compressed air enters the blank clamping airbag to expand it, and the blank clamping airbag embraces and clamps the blank; when deflation is required, the reversing valve switches to the deflation channel, so that the blank clamping airbag is connected to the atmosphere or the exhaust system, and the gas in the blank clamping airbag is discharged. In addition, in some embodiments, the deflation channel may not be provided, and the air source supply may be cut off by controlling the reversing valve, and the elasticity of the blank clamping airbag itself or an external exhaust device may be used to achieve deflation, and the blank may be taken out after deflation.
