Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of equipment testing, and particularly relates to a positive and negative pressure testing device for a steam air valve. Background Art
[0002] The steam air valve is a specially designed two-way valve used in the engine cooling system of special vehicles to connect the radiator water tank. The steam air valve is used to adjust the pressure in the radiator water tank, prevent the water tank from deforming or bursting due to excessive pressure in the water tank, ensure real-time dynamic balance between the pressure in the water tank and the external air pressure, and at the same time ensure smooth fluid transmission in the pipeline, ensuring the normal operation of the cooling system during the driving of special vehicles.
[0003] Whether the steam air valve can open the corresponding positive and negative pressure valves within the required positive and negative pressure ranges determines the safety and efficiency of fluid transmission in the cooling system. Therefore, each steam air valve must undergo strict positive and negative pressure tests before being installed on the vehicle. The required positive and negative pressure opening pressure ranges of the steam air valve are 0.20 - 0.22 MPa and -0.0081 - -0.013 MPa respectively. The traditional pressure testing method is as follows: The pressure testing personnel use two sets of devices to test the positive pressure and negative pressure respectively. When testing the positive pressure, the device is connected to the inflation equipment, and the steam air valve is immersed in water. When a large number of bubbles are generated in the water, it is judged that the positive valve of the steam air valve opens. When testing the negative pressure, the device is connected to the vacuum pumping equipment, and the steam air valve is also immersed in water. When it is observed that water seeps into the device through the air valve, it is judged that the reverse valve of the steam air valve opens. This pressure testing method requires two sets of pressure testing devices. Therefore, each steam air valve needs to be loaded and unloaded twice during pressure testing, and inflation equipment and vacuum pumping equipment are required at the same time, and all steam air valves need to contact water, which is prone to rust.
