[0024] The working process of the present invention is as follows: Before using the device, the staff sequentially places two of the sealing discs 9 into the inside of the connecting pipe 701. Further, the staff fixes the two connecting pipes 701 through the clamp connector 7. At this time, the staff pastes a plurality of strain gauges 702 on the outside of the clamp connector 7. Further, the staff tightens the support block 403 and the support frame 103 through bolts. At the same time, through the left positioning block 402 and the flange 405, the two positioning pipes 6 are fixed to the carrier frame 4 and the right positioning block 404. At this time, the staff can make the connecting plate 805 closely adhere to the support frame 103 through the positioning bar 807 while preventing the connecting plate 805 from shaking, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the test. At this time, the controller 101 controls the adapter rod 904 to extend, so that the adapter plate 905 moves outward, so that the adapter plate 905 closely adheres to the connecting pipe 701. Further, the controller 101 controls the cooperation of two input pumps 204 and two input master valves 205 to work, so as to convey clear water to the right input pipe 907 through the right input hose 202. Further, the controller 101 controls the opening of the right sealing valve 913. At this time, the clear water is conveyed into the sealing chamber 906, so that the sealing chamber 906 deforms, so that the sealing chamber 906 closely adheres to the right connecting pipe 701, thereby ensuring the sealing of the right connecting pipe 701. At the same time, the nitrogen in the nitrogen tank 2 is conveyed to the left input pipe 907 through the left input hose 202. At this time, the controller 101 controls the opening of the left sealing valve 913, so that nitrogen enters the left sealing chamber 906, so that the left sealing chamber 906 deforms, so that the left sealing chamber 906 closely adheres to the left connecting pipe 701, thereby ensuring the sealing of the left connecting pipe 701. Further, the controller 101 controls the opening of the left input valve 909, so as to convey clear water into the connecting pipe 701. When the in-pipe camera 901 monitors that the connecting pipe 701 is filled with clear water, the controller 101 controls the clear water to stop entering the connecting pipe 701. At this time, the water pressure sensor 903 can monitor the water pressure inside the connecting pipe 701. Further, the controller 101 controls the opening of the left input valve 909. At this time, nitrogen enters the connecting pipe 701, so as to change the water pressure inside the connecting pipe 701. When the water pressure sensor 903 monitors that the water pressure in the connecting pipe 701 is the required simulated water pressure, the controller 101 controls the input valve 909 to close. Further, the staff inserts the two connecting pipes 701 into the positioning pipes 6. At this time, the controller 101 can monitor the position of the connecting pipe 701 through the connecting plate 805. Further, the controller 101 controls the contraction of the positioning pipe 6,Thereby driving the clamping sub-disk 603 close to the inner wall of the connecting pipe 701. At this time, the controller 101 controls the cooperation of the clamping main motor 607 and the clamping main rod 601 to make the clamping main disk 604 close to the connecting pipe 701. Further, the controller 101 controls the telescopic movement of the clamping sub-rod 602 to drive the moving plate 609 to move, so that the clamping sub-disk 603 approaches the outer wall of the connecting pipe 701. Further, the controller 101 controls the cooperation of the clamping sub-motor 606 and the clamping sub-rod 602 to make the clamping sub-disk 603 close to the connecting pipe 701, so that the clamping sub-disk 603 and the clamping main disk 604 clamp the connecting pipe 701, thereby ensuring the stability of the connecting pipe 701 and the stability during testing. Further, the displacement of the connecting pipe 701 can be monitored by the clamping displacement sensor 608. The staff fixes the locking plate 501 at the front and rear ends of the clamp connector 7. When the test starts, the controller 101 controls the telescopic movement of the support rod 5 to drive the reversing block 502 to rise and fall. Further, the controller 101 controls the reversing motor 503 to drive the reversing block 502 to rotate. At this time, the controller 101 controls the extension of the approaching rod 504 to drive the positioning plate 3 to move. Further, the staff positions the two measuring plates 301 at both ends of the clamp connector 7 to ensure the accuracy of the test. At this time, the controller 101 controls the simultaneous telescopic movement of the two hydraulic rods 8, thereby driving the right positioning block 404 to rise and fall, so that the positioning pipe 6 at the right end rises and falls, and thus the bending moment of the clamp connector 7 can be tested. At this time, the strain gauge 702 transmits the strain force received by the clamp connector 7 to the controller 101. At the same time, the deformation and water leakage conditions of the clamp connector 7 can be monitored through the observation camera 302. Further, the controller 101 can make the positioning pipe 6 at the right end rotate by controlling the extension of one hydraulic rod 8 and the contraction of the other hydraulic rod 8, so as to test the torque of the clamp connector 7. Due to the action of the measuring shaft 303 and the measuring spring 304, when the strain gauge 702 deforms, the distance between the measuring plates 301 changes. At this time, the controller 101 can monitor the deformation amount of the clamp connector 7 through the deformation displacement sensor 305. Further, the controller 101 controls the extension of the moving rod 506 to drive the right positioning block 404 to move. At this time, the controller 101 can test the displacement amount of the inner end of the connecting pipe 701 according to the data of the clamping displacement sensor 608, the top displacement sensor 401, and the deformation displacement sensor 305, so as to achieve the purpose of testing the clamping effect of the clamp connector 7. When the entire device needs to be disassembled, the controller 101 controls the opening of the right output valve 910 and the right output main valve 206.At this time, the controller 101 continues to control nitrogen to enter the inside of the connecting pipe 701, so that the clear water flows back. Further, the controller 101 controls the reflux valve 914 to open, so that a part of the nitrogen and clear water inside the sealed chamber 906 flows back, facilitating the disassembly of the sealing disc 9.
