Finally, by tightening the first plug 2 or the second plug 3, the sealing gasket 7 on the first plug 2 fits with the outer surface of the left end of the air cooler pipe, and the sealing ring 9 on the second plug 3 fits with the outer surface of the right end of the air cooler pipe; that is, both ends of the air cooler pipe are sealed.
[0033] The external gas source 21 (pressure) enters from one end of the connecting pipe 1 through the needle valve and the pressure gauge 19 in sequence, and flows into the air cooler pipeline to be tested for leakage through the connecting hole 6 to test for side leakage.
[0034] Furthermore, the sizes of the first plug 2 and the second plug 3 can be designed accordingly according to the diameter of the air cooler pipe (tube bundle); and the first plug 2 and the second plug 3 of various specifications and sizes can be provided.
[0035] Furthermore, the sealing gasket 7 is provided with a conical protrusion 11 at one end of the front sealing gasket 7, and the protrusion can extend into the air cooler pipe, so as to better fit and improve the sealing effect.
[0036] Furthermore, when the connecting tube 1 is a telescopic tube, its interior is hollow; specifically, a common telescopic tube structure can be adopted.
