[0031] Working principle; In the initial state, the second butterfly valve 44 and the fourth butterfly valve 46 remain open, while the third butterfly valve 45 and the first butterfly valve 43 remain closed. At this time, the hot gas main pipe 9 delivers the heat source to the second hot gas branch pipe 16 through the first gas supply pipe 11, and then to the second thermal shock pipe 6 through the second three-way pipe 19. This allows the second thermal shock pipe 6 to continuously deliver hot gas through the second hot gas branch pipe 16, thereby delivering the hot gas into the test chamber of the test chamber 2. In addition, the cold gas main pipe 10 delivers the cold source to the first three-way pipe 18 through the first cold gas branch pipe 15, and then to the first thermal shock pipe 5 through the first three-way pipe 18. This allows the first thermal shock pipe 5 to continuously deliver cold gas through the first cold gas branch pipe 15, allowing the cold gas to enter another test chamber inside the test chamber 2. Further, when the preset test time is reached, the butterfly valves of each group are switched quickly, at this time, the first butterfly valve 43 and the third butterfly valve 45 are opened, and the second butterfly valve 44 and the fourth butterfly valve 46 are closed, at this time, the hot gas main pipe 9 delivers the heat source to the first hot gas branch pipe 14, and then to the first three-way pipe 18 through the first three-way pipe 18, and then to the first cold-hot impact pipe 5, so that the heat source enters the test cavity impacted by the cold gas before through the first cold-hot impact pipe 5, in addition, the cold gas main pipe 10 delivers the cold source to the second cold gas branch pipe 17 through the second gas delivery pipe 12, and then to the second cold-hot impact pipe 6 through the second three-way pipe 19, and then to the test cavity impacted by the heat before through the second cold-hot impact pipe 6, thereby realizing the cold-hot alternating impact test of the two exhaust pipes, improving the test efficiency, and batch testing the exhaust pipes.
[0032] Wherein, before the switching of the butterfly valves of each group, the gas source in the two test cavities needs to be discharged, in this process, the first butterfly valve 43, the second butterfly valve 44, the third butterfly valve 45 and the fourth butterfly valve 46 are all closed, at this time, the control motor 29 is started, after the motor 29 is started, the driving shaft 30 will rotate, the threaded pipe 37 will rotate through the rotation of the driving shaft 30, the threaded block 36 will move through the rotation of the threaded pipe 37, the sealing plate 32 will move through the movement of the threaded pipe 37, the sealing block 33 will move away from the exhaust hole 22 through the movement of the sealing plate 32, and then the exhaust hole 22 is opened, in this process, the rotation of the driving shaft 30 will also drive the rotation of the rotating frame 31, the wind wheel 23 will rotate through the rotation of the rotating frame 31, and the suction force will be generated through the rotation of the wind wheel 23, and then the gas source in the two test cavities in the test box 2 will be discharged through the exhaust hole 22 and the through hole 27 through the action of the suction force, so as to avoid the influence of the residual cold source and heat source on the test of the exhaust pipe, after a period of exhaust, and after the sealing plate 32 is reset, the butterfly valves of each group begin to switch; Wherein, the movement of the sealing plate 32 will gradually move away from the threaded pipe 37 until it is located on the outer side of the driving shaft 30, at this time, the continuous rotation of the driving shaft 30 will not drive the threaded block 36 to continue to move, and at this time, the sealing plate 32 will extrude the movable piece 41 and the spring 40, so that the spring 40 is compressed; Further, after a period of exhaust, the control motor 29 is reversed, at this time, the threaded block 36 on the sealing block 33 is tightly attached to the threaded pipe 37 due to the action of the spring 40, and then when the driving shaft 30 drives the threaded pipe 37 to reverse, the threaded block 36 will move reversely to reset the sealing plate 32, the exhaust hole 22 is sealed through the reset of the sealing plate 32, and then the two cavities are in a sealed state.
