Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of engines, and particularly to a leakage detection system and method for a fuel pump bracket of a medium-speed diesel engine. Specifically, it is a system for inspecting the casting quality of a fuel pump bracket through a water pressure detection method, aiming to improve the detection efficiency of the casting quality of the fuel pump bracket and ensure its reliability and safety during the operation of the diesel engine. Background Art
[0002] As the core power device of large equipment such as ships and generator sets, the quality and reliability of the components of a diesel engine directly affect the operation efficiency and safety of the entire equipment. Each process should be strictly carried out in accordance with the requirements of the process and drawings. After the completion of one process, it must be strictly inspected by professional inspectors, and only after meeting the requirements can the next process be carried out. For each finished part, it is necessary to strive for perfection. The product quality of parts casting is particularly important, and the material of the fuel pump bracket, which bears important components, is cast iron. As an important load-bearing component of a diesel engine, the fuel pump bracket is usually manufactured by an integral casting process, and the material is mostly cast iron. Due to its complex structure and large bearing pressure, the casting quality of the fuel pump bracket is particularly important. If there are defects in the casting process, such as pores, cracks, etc., it may cause leakage of the fuel pump bracket during use, thereby affecting the normal operation of the diesel engine.
[0003] Currently, the detection of the casting quality of fuel pump brackets mainly relies on traditional visual inspection and non-destructive testing methods, such as ultrasonic testing, X-ray testing, etc. However, these methods have certain limitations: visual inspection is difficult to detect internal defects, while non-destructive testing methods are costly and complex to operate, and it is difficult to carry out rapid and efficient detection in mass production. In addition, the existing detection methods can often only be carried out after the fuel pump bracket is processed, and defects cannot be detected in time during the casting process, resulting in great difficulty in subsequent repair and even possible irreparable quality problems.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a system and method that can quickly and efficiently detect after the fuel pump bracket is cast and before it is processed, so as to ensure that the casting quality of the fuel pump bracket meets the requirements and avoid leakage problems caused by casting defects. Summary of the Invention
