[0051] As Figure 6A detection tube 26 is connected through the center of the disc 23, and an input end of the detection tube 26 is fixedly connected with an air inlet pipe 27 and a liquid inlet pipe 28 through a three-way valve respectively;

[0052] An air compressor 29 is fixedly connected to an input end of the air inlet pipe 27, and an electric control valve one 30 is arranged on the air inlet pipe 27, which is used for controlling the on-off of high-pressure gas in the air inlet pipe 27. A gas flow sensor 31 is arranged on a side pipeline of an output end of the electric control valve one 30, which is used for detecting the air tightness of the plastic pipeline.

[0053] A liquid pump 32 is fixedly connected to an input end of the liquid inlet pipe 28, and an electric control valve two 42 is arranged on the liquid inlet pipe 28, which is used for controlling the on-off of liquid in the liquid inlet pipe 28.

A liquid flow sensor 41 is arranged on a side pipeline of an output end of the electric control valve two 42, which is used for detecting the air tightness of the plastic pipeline.

[0054] The gas flow sensor 31 and the liquid flow sensor 41 are both signal connected with a processor.

[0055] A plurality of liquid outlet holes 34 are arranged in the center of the circular table 4, and the plurality of liquid outlet holes 34 do not interfere with the annular groove one 5. The liquid outlet holes 34 penetrate the circular table 4, and a collection pipe 35 is arranged on the lower side of the rotating disc 1 corresponding to the circular table 4. One end of the collection pipe 35 is embedded on the rotating disc 1 and communicates with the liquid outlet holes 34.

[0056] An air outlet pipe 36 and a liquid outlet pipe 37 are fixedly connected to an output end of the collection pipe 35 through a three-way valve. An output end of the liquid outlet pipe 37 communicates to the liquid storage tank 33.

[0057] A liquid and electric slip ring is concentrically arranged on the lower side of the rotating disc 1. The liquid and electric slip ring is a conventional technology. A stator end of the liquid and electric slip ring is fixedly connected to the base 2. A rotor end of the liquid and electric slip ring is sleeved on an output shaft of the cam divider and is fixedly connected with the rotating disc 1. The liquid and electric slip ring is a device capable of realizing power, signal, gas and liquid transmission between relatively rotating components. Here, it is used for power, signal, gas and liquid switching between components on the rotating disc 1 and components not on the rotating disc 1.

[0058] Specifically, a pipeline of the annular air pipe 13 on the rotating disc 1 is connected with a pipeline of the vacuum pump one 38 through the liquid and electric slip ring switching. The liquid outlet pipe 37 is communicated with the liquid storage tank 33 through the liquid and electric slip ring switching.

[0059] A transmission-in conveying belt and an industrial robot one are arranged on the right side of the base 2. The industrial robot one is used for clamping and placing the plastic pipeline to be detected on the transmission-in conveying belt on the rotating disc 1.

[0060] The left side of the base 2 is provided with a waste conveying belt, a finished product conveying belt and an industrial robot two, the industrial robot two is used for placing the unqualified plastic pipeline after detection on the waste conveying belt, and placing the qualified plastic pipeline after detection on the finished product conveying belt.

[0061] In the embodiment, the industrial robot one clamps and places the plastic pipeline to be detected on the incoming conveying belt on the circular table 4 on the right side of the rotating disc 1;

[0062] Then the plastic pipeline is clamped and centered by the clamping and centering assembly 15 corresponding to the circular table 4; specifically, the output ends of the three hydraulic telescopic cylinders one 17 are controlled to extend synchronously, so that the clamping block 16 centers and clamps the plastic pipeline;

[0063] Then the output ends of the three hydraulic telescopic cylinders two 19 are controlled to retract synchronously, so that the clamping block 16 clamping the plastic pipeline descends and inserts into the corresponding annular groove one 5, and is attached to the inner wall of the annular groove two 7 of the sealing element one 6.

[0064] As Figure 3 , the plastic pipeline is attached to the ring 10, which is twisted from the inclined state to the vertical state under the pressure of the plastic pipe and attached to the wall of the plastic pipeline;

[0065] At this time, the vacuum pump one 38 is started, and the vacuum pump one 38 sucks air from the air hole 12 through the pipeline. Since the attachment ring 10 is attached to the wall of the plastic pipeline, the annular groove four 11 forms a sealed cavity with the wall of the plastic pipeline. In the state of air suction of the air hole 12, the cavity formed by the annular groove four 11 and the plastic pipeline is in a negative pressure state, so that the attachment ring 10 is more closely attached to the plastic pipeline, and the sealing effect of the attachment ring 10 on the plastic pipeline is improved;

[0066] Then control the cam divider to operate, the sealing assembly one 3 drives the plastic pipeline thereon to rotate to the side of the detection assembly 39, and the detection assembly 39 performs air tightness detection.

[0067] At the same time, the industrial robot one again clamps and places the next plastic pipeline to be detected on the circular table 4 rotated to the left side, and the clamping and centering assembly 15 corresponding to the circular table 4 centers and clamps the plastic pipeline and inserts it into the corresponding annular groove one 5, so that the end face is attached to the inner wall of the annular groove two 7.

[0068] The output end of the hydraulic telescopic cylinder three 21 is extended, so that the disc 23 is lowered, and the corresponding annular groove five 24 on the disc 23 is clamped on the other end face of the plastic pipe. The sealing principle of the sealing element two 25 in the annular groove five 24 is consistent with the sealing principle of the sealing element one 6 on the end face of the plastic pipe. The air hole 12 on the sealing element two 25 inhales air by starting the vacuum pump two 40, so that the sealing element two 25 seals the plastic pipe by adsorption. There is no need to repeat the description here.

[0069] After the sealing element two 25 seals the other end face of the plastic pipe, the two ends of the plastic pipe are both sealed.

[0070] First, the air compressor 29 introduces compressed gas into the detection pipe 26 through the air inlet pipe 27. At this time, the three-way valve on one side of the collection pipe 35 is in a closed state, so as to ensure that the gas does not leak through the pipeline. Whether the gas entering the plastic pipe leaks is detected by the gas flow sensor 31.

[0071] The processor presets the warning value of gas leakage, denoted as A1, and the actual value of gas leakage detected by the gas flow sensor 31, denoted as A2.

[0072] When A2>A1, it is directly determined that the air tightness of the plastic pipe is unqualified, so as to realize rapid screening of the plastic pipe with large leakage.

[0073] When A2≤0.1*A1, it is directly determined that the air tightness of the plastic pipe is qualified.

[0074] Since the injected gas may be adsorbed by the plastic pipe wall, the gas injection detection has the characteristic of large error. When 0.1*A1

[0075] The air compressor 29 is turned off, and the three-way valve on the collection pipe 35 is opened to communicate with the gas outlet pipe 36, so that the high-pressure gas is discharged. After the high-pressure gas is discharged, the three-way valve on the collection pipe 35 is closed again.

[0076] Then, the three-way valve pipeline on the detection pipe 26 is switched to communicate with the liquid inlet pipe 28, and the liquid pump 32 is started. The liquid pump 32 pumps the liquid in the liquid storage tank 33 into the plastic pipe, and detects whether the liquid in the plastic pipe leaks by the liquid flow sensor 41.

[0077] The processor presets the warning value of liquid leakage, denoted as Y1, and Y1≤0.1*A1. The processor presets the actual value of liquid leakage detected by the liquid flow sensor 41, denoted as Y2.

[0078] When Y2>Y1, it is determined that the air tightness of the plastic pipe is unqualified.

[0079] When Y2≤Y1, it is determined that the plastic pipe is air-tight and qualified;

[0080] After the liquid injection detection is completed, the three-way valve on the collection pipe 35 is switched to communicate with the liquid outlet pipe 37, the liquid in the plastic pipe flows into the collection pipe 35 through the liquid outlet hole 34 and then flows into the liquid storage tank 33 through the liquid outlet pipe 37 to complete the recovery.

[0081] After the air-tightness detection of the plastic pipe is completed, the detection assembly 39 is reset, then the rotating disc 1 is continuously rotated by the cam divider, so that the plastic pipe is rotated and moved to the left side of the base 2, the unqualified plastic pipe is clamped and placed on the waste conveyor belt by the industrial robot II, and the qualified plastic pipe is clamped and placed on the finished product conveyor belt.
