[0048] The bottom plate 1 has an upper surface 11 for the corrugated pipe 2 to be placed vertically thereon, and the edge of the lower end of the corrugated pipe 2 is in contact with the upper surface 11 of the bottom plate 1 .

[0049] The cover plate 3 is located above the base plate 1 and is used to cover the upper end of the bellows 2 to close the upper end. At the same time, the cover plate 3 is provided with a fluid connecting pipe 31 for inputting external fluid (air) into the bellows 2; and a valve is provided on the fluid connecting pipe 31 to open or cut off the passage of the fluid connecting pipe 31.

[0050] The pressure measuring device 7 is a pressure gauge externally connected to the fluid connecting pipe 31 , and is used to detect the air pressure in the space enclosed by the bottom plate 1 and the cover plate 3 in the bellows 2 .

[0051] The bracket 4 is arranged on the bottom plate 1 and is located beside the corrugated tube 2. The bracket 4 includes a vertical rod 41, a slider 42 arranged on the vertical rod 41 and capable of moving up and down along the vertical rod 41, and columns 44 arranged side by side on both sides of the vertical rod 41. Figure 2 As shown, the upper ends of the two columns 44 are connected through the first end plate 441, and the lower ends of the two columns 44 are supported on the bottom plate 1 through the third end plate, and the two columns 44 are provided with scale marks for indicating the height of the position of the slider 42; the vertical rod 41 is a first screw rod with external threads, and its upper and lower ends are respectively supported on the first end plate 441 and the third end plate, so that the first screw rod can rotate around its own axis under the action of external force, and the above-mentioned slider 42 is threadedly connected to the first screw rod, and a handwheel is provided at the upper end of the first screw rod, which is located above the first end plate 441 to drive the first screw rod to rotate. At the same time, Figure 1As shown, the bracket 4 of this embodiment also includes a guide rod 45, which is penetrated by a guide hole 421 on the slider 42 (the structure of the slider 42 is as shown in FIG. Figure 5 , 6 , 7), and both ends of the guide rod 45 are supported on the first end plate 441 and the third end plate, so that the slider 42 can be driven to move up and down when the first screw rod rotates.

[0052] like Figure 8 As shown, the pressing member 5 is arranged on the slider 42 and above the cover plate 3 through the connecting arm 43, so that it can move downward or upward with the slider 42 to press on the cover plate 3 or detach from the cover plate 3. Specifically, as Figure 6 , 7 As shown in FIGS. 8, 10 and 11, the first end of the connecting arm 43 is constrained to the slider 42 in a manner that it can rotate around an axis extending up and down, and the second end of the connecting arm 43 extends outward relative to the side wall of the vertical rod 41, and a channel 430 extending along the length direction of the connecting arm 43 is provided in the connecting arm 43, and one end of the channel 430 opens at the second end of the connecting arm 43; Fig. 9 As shown, the pressing member 5 is spherical, and a connecting rod 51 is provided on the pressing member 5. One end of the connecting rod 51 is connected to the pressing member 5, and the other end of the connecting rod 51 is inserted into the channel 430 from the second end of the connecting arm 43, so that the pressing member 5 can move laterally relative to the vertical rod 41 to move closer to or away from the side wall of the vertical rod 41, and can also rotate circumferentially relative to the vertical rod 41 to adjust its position. The movable direction of the pressing member is as shown in FIG. Figure 3 During the leak test, the pressing member 5 is arranged at the center of the cover plate 3 .

[0053] During the inspection, the bellows 2 is placed vertically on the base plate 1, and the cover plate 3 is placed on the upper end of the bellows 2. Then, the outside air is input into the bellows 2 through the fluid connecting pipe 31 on the cover plate 3, and the pressing piece 5 is pressed downward on the cover plate 3. The pressure measuring device 7 can be used to observe whether there is any leakage of air in the bellows 2, which is convenient for operation.

[0054] In order to prevent air from leaking from the joint between the edge of the lower end of the bellows 2 and the upper surface 11 of the bottom plate 1, kerosene may be dripped at the joint to seal the joint.

[0055] In order to prevent the slider from moving during detection, a locking piece can be set on the first screw rod. When the locking piece is unlocked, the first screw rod can rotate under the drive of the hand wheel. When the locking piece is locked, the first screw rod can be restricted from rotating. The locking piece can refer to the existing locking structure design and will not be described in detail here.

[0056] Embodiment 2:

[0057] like Figures 12-14As shown, it is a preferred embodiment 2 of a leak test device for a bellows seal of the utility model. This embodiment is basically the same as the embodiment 1, except that the structure of the bracket 4 in this embodiment is different. Specifically, the bracket of this embodiment includes two vertical rods 41 and a slider 42. The two vertical rods 41 are arranged side by side on both sides of the bellows 2. The upper ends of the two vertical rods 41 are connected by a second end plate 411, and the lower ends of the two vertical rods 41 are supported on the bottom plate 1. The slider 42 is constrained between the two vertical rods 41 in a manner that it can move up and down along the vertical rods 41, and the central position of the slider 42 is provided below the clamping member 5. Both vertical rods 41 are provided with scale marks for indicating the height of the position of the slider 42.

[0058] In order to drive the slider 42 to move up and down, the present embodiment also includes a horizontally placed second screw rod 6, a first connecting rod 61 and a second connecting rod 62 arranged in a V shape, and a third connecting rod 63 and a fourth connecting rod 64 arranged in an inverted V shape. After the lower end of the first connecting rod 61 and the lower end of the second connecting rod 62 are rotatably connected, they are constrained together with the slider 42 as the tip of the V shape. After the upper end of the third connecting rod 63 and the upper end of the fourth connecting rod 64 are rotatably connected, they are constrained together with the second end plate 411 as the tip of the inverted V shape. After the upper end of the first connecting rod 61 and the lower end of the third connecting rod 63 are rotatably connected, they are threadedly connected to the second screw rod 6 as a first connecting portion 65. After the upper end of the second connecting rod 62 and the lower end of the fourth connecting rod 64 are rotatably connected, they are threadedly connected to the second screw rod 6 as a second connecting portion. Therefore, when the second screw rod 6 rotates around its own axis under the action of external force, it can drive the first connecting portion 65 and the second connecting portion 66 to be relatively close to or away from each other, thereby driving the tip of the V shape to move up and down together with the slider 42. In this embodiment, a hand wheel is provided at one end of the second screw rod 6 to drive the second screw rod 6 to rotate.

[0059] At the same time, the present embodiment also includes two anti-movement seats 8, which are arranged on the base plate 1 and are fitted together with the upper surface 11 of the base plate 1 by magnetic attraction, so as to surround the outer periphery of the bellows 2 and fit with the side walls of the bellows 2, thereby avoiding horizontal displacement of the bellows and improving test accuracy.
