Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a heat exchange plate leakage detection device, belonging to the technical field of heat exchange plate detection. Background Art
[0002] During the production process of heat exchangers, it is necessary to check for leaks. Generally, simple inspections are performed by visual inspection of the appearance, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and small leaks are difficult to detect. Even with the use of visual inspection equipment, the yield rate of the product cannot be effectively guaranteed. It is even more difficult to detect the damaged points on the heat exchanger that are about to break, resulting in the failure of the entire heat exchanger after assembly, causing waste. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of the above deficiencies in the prior art, the technical problem to be solved by the utility model is: to provide a heat exchanger plate leak detection device, which can effectively detect small leaks and damaged points that are about to break of the heat exchanger plate, avoid unqualified products from flowing into the next process, and improve the product yield.
[0004] The heat exchanger plate leak detection device described in the utility model comprises a sealed cabin, which is a box body with an open top. The sealed cabin is connected to a pressure plate, which can be turned over. A pressure gas interface is also provided on one side of the sealed cabin. The heat exchanger plate to be detected is placed above the sealed cabin, and the pressure plate is turned over to cover the heat exchanger plate, so that a sealed area can be formed between the heat exchanger plate and the sealed cabin.
[0005] The technical solution of the utility model is to provide a heat exchanger plate leak detection device. When in use, the heat exchanger plate is placed above the sealed cabin, and the pressure plate is flipped to cover the heat exchanger plate to form a sealed area between the heat exchanger plate and the sealed cabin. Pressurized gas is introduced into the sealed area through the pressure gas interface to detect pressure changes. If the air pressure is qualified, the heat exchanger plate does not need to be subjected to detailed and tedious visual inspection. If the air pressure is abnormal, the heat exchanger plate is abnormal, and soapy water is needed to cooperate with the abnormal heat exchanger plate to detect and repair leaks.
[0006] Preferably, the sealed cabin is rotatably connected to the pressure plate via a hinge, and the pressure plate is a rectangular frame structure.
[0007] Furthermore, a rotating cylinder is provided on one side of the sealed cabin, and the rotating cylinder is connected to the pressure plate through a swing rod, and the swing rod can drive the pressure plate to rotate around the hinge.
[0008] Furthermore, the front and rear edges of the sealing cabin are provided with bosses, and the front and rear edges of the pressure plate are provided with grooves. The shapes of the sealing cabin bosses and the pressure plate grooves are compatible with the shapes of the front and rear ends of the heat exchanger, so the heat exchanger can be positioned.
[0009] Preferably, the sealing cabin and the rotating cylinder are both fixed on a workbench.
[0010] The sealed cabin is also provided with an air pressure detection device. When the air pressure changes beyond a specified range, the air pressure detection device sounds an alarm to remind the staff to spray soapy water on the surface of the heat exchanger plate in order to find the leak and repair it.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0012] The heat exchanger plate leak detection device described in the utility model fixes the heat exchanger plate by means of a pressure plate and a sealing cabin, applies pressurized gas in the sealing cabin, and determines whether the heat exchanger plate has a leak by detecting the change in air pressure. When a leak exists in the heat exchanger plate, soapy water is sprayed on the surface of the heat exchanger plate to quickly find the leak so as to repair the leak. The utility model has reliable detection, avoids unqualified products from flowing into the subsequent process, reduces the defective product rate of the heat exchanger plate, simplifies the detection method, saves labor costs, and improves the detection efficiency. At the same time, the loading and unloading of the heat exchanger plate can be realized by an automated motion module, and the spraying of soapy water on the defective heat exchanger plate can be integrated into the device through a PLC system to realize assembly line operation.
