Through the above structure, automobile long tube columns of different lengths and different pipe mouth directions can be tested to enhance the scope of application of the device.

Through the continuous rotation of the first bolt 2, the fixing plate 23 and the sliding column 15 will squeeze the first support frame 1 in the middle and the friction force at the contact position will gradually increase, making it difficult for the sliding column 15 to continue to slide and rotate inside the slide groove 14, thereby fixing the position and orientation of the sealing block 18. Through the above structure, the position and orientation of a pair of sealing blocks 18 can be fixed, thereby facilitating the detection of large quantities of long pipe columns of the same specification and improving the testing speed of large quantities of long pipe columns of the same specification.

[0029] like Figure 3 As shown, a rubber pad 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the first support frame 1; the rubber pad 7 is located on both sides of the bottom of the slide groove 14; when working, when the fixing plate 23 is driven to move upward by the rotation of the first bolt 2, the fixing plate 23 will contact with the rubber pad 7 and squeeze the rubber pad 7, and the position where the rubber pad 7 is squeezed will have a slight depression, making it more difficult for the fixing plate 23 trapped therein to move, thereby improving the fixing effect of the slide column 15.
[0030] During operation, the long tube column of the automobile to be tested is placed on the first support frame 1 and the second support frame 13, and then a pair of slide columns 15 are slid on the slide groove 14 to make the slide column 15 located in the direction facing the pipe mouth of the long tube column of the automobile, and then the sliding rod 17 is slid to fit the sealing block 18 with the pipe mouth of the long tube column of the automobile, and then the air pump inside the detection component 110 is started to extract the gas inside the long tube column of the automobile through the air guide pipe 111. After the air pressure inside the long tube column of the automobile is reduced to a certain level, the air extraction is stopped and the air guide pipe 111 is closed. At this time, the interior of the long tube column of the automobile is in a sealed state, and then the detection component 110 is used to detect whether the air pressure inside the long tube column of the automobile is within a period of time. Whether there is any change, determine whether the seal of the long column of the automobile is qualified in turn, rotate the first bolt 2 to make the first bolt 2 move upward along the middle of the sliding column 15, and then drive the rotating shaft 22 to move upward, at this time, the fixing plate 23 will slide upward in the middle of a pair of grooves 21 and contact with the bottom of the first support frame 1, through the continuous rotation of the first bolt 2, the fixing plate 23 and the sliding column 15 will squeeze the first support frame 1 in the middle and the friction force at the contact position will gradually increase, making it difficult for the sliding column 15 to continue to slide and rotate inside the sliding groove 14, thereby fixing the position and direction of the sealing block 18, and rotating the second bolt 32 to make the second bolt 32 rise or fall, at this time the top plate 31 The second bolt 32 will rise or fall synchronously. When testing the long pipe column, the long pipe column is placed above a pair of top plates 31. By adjusting the pair of second bolts 32, the axis of the long pipe column and the axis of the sealing block 18 are roughly in the same plane. After the second support frame 13 and the first support frame 1 are slid apart, the clamping plate 41 is slid into the interior of the first support frame 1, so that the clamping plate 41 is trapped in a limiting groove 4, thereby locking the limiting groove 4, making it difficult for the second support frame 13 to continue to slide in the middle of the connecting rod 12, so that the distance between the second support frame 13 and the first support frame 1 is difficult to change. When 18 moves toward the nozzle of the long pipe column, the cleaning cloth 52 will first contact with the nozzle of the long pipe column and clean some impurities at the nozzle by friction. When the cleaning cloth 52 enters the interior of the long pipe column through the nozzle, the nozzle will squeeze the multiple elastic sheets 51, causing the multiple elastic sheets 51 to bend and deform toward the sealing block 18, so that the cleaning cloth 52 enters the interior of the pipeline, and then the sealing block 18 seals the nozzle. When the sliding column 15 slides along the slide groove 14, the multiple rollers 6 roll on the top of the first support frame 1, so that the sliding friction between the bottom of the sliding column 15 and the top of the first support frame 1 is converted into rolling friction, so that the movement of the sliding column 15 becomes more flexible.
