[0002] Double-sided sealed vacuum pumps, specifically double-sided water ring vacuum pumps, are widely used in industrial production. These pumps typically consist of a pump body, impeller, water ring, baffles, and power mechanism. Their main principle is based on the centrifugal force and friction generated by the rotation of a liquid (such as water), forming a water ring on the inner wall of the pump body's internal chamber. This water ring, combined with the impeller, creates multiple chambers with varying volumes, generating negative and positive pressure zones to achieve unidirectional intake and exhaust. To ensure the quality of the manufactured vacuum pumps, their sealing performance must be tested.

[0003] Patent CN117686157A discloses an airtightness testing device for a vacuum pump assembly line.

[0029] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods. Example 1

[0030] This invention provides a sealing detection device for a double-sided sealed vacuum pump, referring to... Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3The system includes a workbench 1, on which a test box is mounted. The test box is hollow and used to house a double-sided sealed vacuum pump for sealing testing. The test box consists of a base plate 2 and an upper box body 3. The base plate 2 is horizontally positioned on the workbench 1, and a mounting platform 4 is fixedly mounted on the top of the base plate 2. The edges of the mounting platform 4 protrude outwards, forming a flange for placing and connecting the vacuum pump body. The upper box body 3 is hollow inside and open at the bottom. A connector is provided on the upper box body 3 to seal it to the base plate 2.

[0031] An air inlet pipe 21 is connected to the base plate 2. One end of the air inlet pipe 21 is connected to a port flange of a vacuum pump, and the other end of the air inlet pipe 21 passes through the base plate 2 and is connected to an external testing air pump. A water inlet pipe 22 and a drain pipe 23 are also connected to the base plate 2. Both the water inlet pipe 22 and the drain pipe 23 connect to the test chamber formed by the upper body 3 above the base plate 2 to accommodate the vacuum pump. The other end of the water inlet pipe 22 is connected to a water source, such as a tap, and the other end of the drain pipe 23 is connected to a drain pipe. An installation port is provided on the workbench 1 below the base plate 2, through which the air inlet pipe 21, water inlet pipe 22, and drain pipe 23 pass to connect to the base plate 2. Valves are provided on the air inlet pipe 21, water inlet pipe 22, and drain pipe 23. The upper body 3 is made of transparent plastic. An auxiliary component 5 is also provided on the outer wall of the upper body 3 for viewing the connection points of the vacuum pump, improving the convenience of observing the vacuum pump's leakage status.

[0032] In this embodiment, the connector includes a first bolt 24 and a first nut 25. Multiple sets of connectors are spaced apart along the edge of the base plate 2. One end of the first bolt 24 is rotatably mounted on the edge of the base plate 2. A protruding edge is integrally fixed to the lower edge of the upper box body 3, with each of the first bolts 24 corresponding to one of the protruding edges, and a connecting slot 33 allowing the first bolt 24 to rotate upwards into it. When the first bolt 24 is rotated into the connecting slot 33, the first nut 25 is threadedly connected to the first bolt 24, and the first nut 25 presses downwards against the upper wall of the protruding edge, thereby fixing the upper box body 3 and the base plate 2 together. The first nut 25 can be a wing nut for easy tightening by the operator. A sealing ring is provided between the contact surfaces of the upper box body 3 and the base plate 2 to improve the sealing at the connection between the upper box body 3 and the base plate 2.

[0033] In this embodiment of the application, the upper box body 3 includes a first connecting part 34 and a second connecting part 35. The first connecting part 34 is cylindrical and the second connecting part 35 is cubic. The second connecting part 35 is connected to the side wall of the first connecting part 34. The side of the second connecting part 35 away from the first connecting part 34 is designed with an opening. When the upper box body 3 is connected to the bottom plate 2, the axis of the first connecting part 34 is horizontal.

[0034] The auxiliary component 5 includes a first slide rail 51 and an illumination light source 52. The first slide rail 51 is arc-shaped, matching the diameter of the first connecting part 34, and is fitted against the outer wall of the first connecting part 34. A first slider 53, which can be made of rubber, is slidably mounted on the first slide rail 51 along its length. The first slider 53 is damped and slidably connected to the first slide rail 51. An integral mounting part extending to one side of the first slide rail 51 is connected to the first slider 53. The illumination light source 52 is damped and hingedly mounted on the mounting part, and the hinge axis of the illumination light source 52 is parallel to the axis of the first connecting part 34. By sliding the first slider 53 and rotating the illumination light source 52, the beam of light irradiated by the illumination light source 52 can be made tangential to the vacuum pump connection part, thereby making the bubbles attached to the surface of the vacuum pump visible. By observing the number of bubbles escaping from the vacuum pump connection part, the degree of leakage of the vacuum pump can be determined, facilitating the operator to observe the leakage points of the vacuum pump.

[0035] Furthermore, a second slide rail 54 is provided on the outer wall of the first connecting part 34. The second slide rail 54 is arranged parallel to the axial direction of the first connecting part 34, and both ends of the first slide rail 51 are slidably connected to the second slide rail 54. Both ends of the first slide rail 51 are connected to a second slider, which is a rubber block, and the second slider is damped and slidably connected to the second slide rail 54.

[0036] Reference Figure 4 The workbench 1 is also equipped with a defoaming assembly 6. In this embodiment, the defoaming assembly 6 includes a vibration motor 61 and multiple elastic connecting seats 62. The elastic connecting seats 62 can be damping springs. The base plate 2 is connected to the workbench 1 through the multiple elastic connecting seats 62, and the vibration motor 61 is mounted on the base plate 2. By turning on the vibration motor 61, the test box and the internal vacuum pump can be driven to vibrate as a whole, eliminating air bubbles attached to the inner wall of the test box and the outer wall of the vacuum pump. The water inlet pipe 22, the drain pipe 23, and the air inlet pipe 21 can all be flexible pipes or metal corrugated pipes to ensure that the water inlet pipe 22, the drain pipe 23, and the air inlet pipe 21 remain intact when the base plate 2 vibrates.

[0037] In other embodiments, the defoaming component 6 can be an ultrasonic generator set on the base plate 2. The ultrasonic frequency needs to be controlled at 20KHz~30KHz to avoid causing a lot of vibration to the water in the test box, so that the bubbles can drift around when they detach from the surface of the vacuum pump.

[0038] In this embodiment, a third connecting portion 36 is provided on the side of the first connecting portion 34 away from the second connecting portion 35. A bubble-collecting assembly 7 for collecting bubbles is provided within the third connecting portion 36. The bubble-collecting assembly 7 forms several bubble-collecting grids 72 of uniform size facing the second connecting portion 35. When the vacuum pump is pressurized to sufficient pressure, pumping is stopped, and the vibration motor 61 is turned on. This vibrates the bubbles on the surface of the vacuum pump, causing them to rise and collect in the bubble-collecting grids 72, where they are collected by the bubble-collecting assembly 7. This allows the operator to observe and determine the leakage of the vacuum pump within a specified time. The independent bubble-collecting grids 72 can collect bubbles escaping from different areas on the horizontal projection of the vacuum pump. Especially for double-sided sealed vacuum pumps, which have more connecting parts, the vacuum pump can be significantly divided into different areas for directional bubble collection.

[0039] Specifically, the bubble collecting assembly 7 includes several arrayed bubble collecting tubes 71. Each bubble collecting tube 71 has an open end facing the second connecting portion 35. Adjacent bubble collecting tubes 71 are sealed to each other and to the third connecting portion 36. The walls of the bubble collecting tubes 71 are transparent and have graduation lines. The bubble collecting tubes 71 can be made of glass or plastic. The graduation lines facilitate reading the gas content collected in the bubble collecting tubes 71. Furthermore, the bottom of the bubble collecting tubes 71 can be designed as a funnel shape, wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, which concentrates the collected bubbles, allowing each bubble collecting tube 71 to collect bubbles from a larger projection area of ​​the vacuum pump.

[0040] To quickly vent the gas from the bubble collecting tube 71, in this embodiment, an exhaust port 74 is provided at the end of the bubble collecting tube 71 away from the opening. A sealing plate 75 is slidably disposed on the third connecting part 36 along the axial direction of the exhaust port 74. A sealing head 76 corresponding to each bubble collecting tube 71 is provided on the side of the sealing plate 75 facing the bubble collecting tube 71. The sealing head 76 can be a silicone column, which can be embedded into the exhaust port 74 by interference compression. When venting the air in the test box, the sealing plate 75 is moved upward to open the exhaust port 74 at the top of the bubble collecting tube 71. During the water injection process into the test box, clean water can quickly fill the entire test box. After the air in the bubble collecting tube 71 is vented, the sealing plate 75 is moved downward, so that the sealing head 76 on the sealing plate 75 can seal the exhaust port 74 on the bubble collecting tube 71. The operation is quick and convenient.

[0041] Furthermore, the inner top wall of the bubble collecting tube 71 can be designed as a spherical surface, and the exhaust port 74 can be opened at the very top of the bubble collecting tube 71, so that the bubble collecting tube 71 can be completely emptied during the exhaust process, and bubbles can be avoided from remaining in the bubble collecting tube 71.

[0042] Specifically, a guide ridge is provided on the third connecting part 36 along the axial direction of the exhaust port 74. The sealing plate 75 is slidably connected to the guide ridge and is hollowed out. A support plate is provided at the end of the third connecting part 36 away from the second connecting part 35. A first adjusting screw 77 is threadedly connected to the support plate and is rotatably connected to the sealing plate 75. Several second adjusting screws 78 are threadedly connected to the sealing plate 75, and the sealing head 76 is located at one end of the second adjusting screws 78. By rotating the first adjusting screw 77, the sealing plate 75 can be moved up and down within the third connecting part 36, thereby moving the overall sealing head 76 closer to / away from the bubble collecting tube 71. By rotating the second adjusting screws 78, the opening and closing state of the exhaust port 74 at the top of each bubble collecting tube 71 can be adjusted independently, making it suitable for more test scenarios.

[0043] Furthermore, a water collection trough can be provided around the third connecting part 36 on the outside of the upper box 3 to collect the clean water overflowing from the exhaust port 74 and exhaust pipe 31 during the test. Example 2

[0044] This application also provides a sealing detection method for a double-sided sealed vacuum pump, which uses a sealing detection device for a double-sided sealed vacuum pump provided in this application, and includes the following steps:

[0045] S01. Empty the double-sided sealed vacuum pump, clean the impurities on the surface of the double-sided sealed vacuum pump, perform waterproofing work on the electrical components and circuit connections of the double-sided sealed vacuum pump, and use plugs to seal the extra ports of the double-sided sealed vacuum pump, leaving only one open.

[0046] S02. Install and fix the double-sided sealed vacuum pump on the mounting platform 4, connect the air inlet pipe 21 to the remaining port of the double-sided sealed vacuum pump, install the upper box 3, and tighten the first nut 25 to fix the upper box 3.

[0047] S03. Move the sealing plate 75 upward to open the vent 74 on the bubble collecting tube 71, inject clean water into the test box, cover the vacuum pump and fill the test box, shake the clean water in the test box to cause the air bubbles attached to the surface of the vacuum pump to detach and float to the surface, and expel the air in the water and the air bubbles attached to the double-sided sealed vacuum pump surface. Move the sealing plate 75 downward to close the vent 74, and inject water into the test box again until water overflows from the vent 74.

[0048] S04. Open the air inlet pipe 21 to fill the double-sided sealed vacuum pump with air and maintain constant pressure. Make the irradiation light source 52 tangentially irradiate the connection part of the double-sided sealed vacuum pump, observe the distribution of bubbles on the surface of the double-sided sealed vacuum pump, and determine the leakage point of the double-sided sealed vacuum pump.

[0049] S05. Stop filling the double-sided sealed vacuum pump with gas, shake to eliminate air bubbles on the surface of the vacuum pump, and observe the amount of gas leakage at the connection between the two ends of the double-sided sealed vacuum pump through the bubble collection tube 71.

[0050] S06. Drain the water from the test box; test complete.

Empty the double-sided sealed vacuum pump, clean the impurities on the surface of the double-sided sealed vacuum pump, perform waterproofing work on the electrical components and circuit connections of the double-sided sealed vacuum pump, and use plugs to seal the extra ports of the double-sided sealed vacuum pump, leaving only one open. S02. Install and fix the double-sided sealed vacuum pump on the mounting platform (4), connect the double-sided sealed vacuum pump to the air inlet pipe (21), and install the box body (3). S03. Pour clean water into the test box, cover the vacuum pump and fill the test box completely. Shake the water in the test box to remove air from the water and air bubbles attached to the surface of the double-sided sealed vacuum pump. Confirm that the test box is filled with water again. S04. Open the air inlet pipe (21) to fill the double-sided sealed vacuum pump with air and maintain constant pressure, so that the irradiation light source (52) is tangentially irradiating the connection part of the double-sided sealed vacuum pump, observe the distribution of bubbles on the surface of the double-sided sealed vacuum pump, and determine the leakage part of the double-sided sealed vacuum pump. S05. Stop filling the double-sided sealed vacuum pump with gas, shake to eliminate air bubbles on the surface of the vacuum pump, and observe the amount of gas leakage at the connection between the two ends of the double-sided sealed vacuum pump through the bubble collection tube (71). S06. Drain the water from the test box; test complete.
