[0002] In recent years, driven by the concept of "green and sustainable development", the new energy vehicle market has continued to expand rapidly, driving the rapid growth of the new energy battery market. At present, new energy batteries generally adopt a square aluminum shell structure, which consists of a shell and a battery cover. The battery cover not only provides a confined space for new energy batteries, but also serves as a medium for energy transmission of new energy batteries. Its structure directly affects the reliability and manufacturing cost of the battery pack. The reliability of the battery pack directly affects the working performance of the car and the personal safety of the passengers. Therefore, for the battery structure, especially the battery cover, in addition to some necessary tests, it is also necessary to conduct enhanced destructive tests on samples during the manufacturing process.

[0003] At present, all the tests that must be conducted on the cover of new energy batteries include the electrical performance test of the pole and the cover and the air tightness test of the cover structure. Both tests will not cause damage to the structure and performance of the cover. In addition, many destructive verifications are required during the FAE stage and product manufacturing stage, such as salt spray test, tensile test, baking test, creep test, water test, etc. The purpose of water test is to see whether the cover structure is reliable under higher pressure, but the existing water test is to weld the cover to the aluminum shell, pass compressed air and put the whole into water to observe whether there is leakage. The process is cumbersome and inconvenient to operate, and multiple devices need to be used in coordination to complete the test, which greatly consumes manpower and material resources and increases the production and R&D costs of enterprises.
