The leakage point may be at the weld position of the sheet tube body, the joint between the tube body and the tube shoulder, or the functional head or tube cover matching position. Leakage sometimes also comes from assembly and cooling. Although many hoses now use online leak detection, there are still problems with slow leak detection speed and low efficiency.

[0052] The utility model provides a hose leak detection machine.

[0053] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment of the present invention, the hose leak detector comprises:

[0054] The frame 100 has a first working position 120 and a second working position 130;

[0055] The conveying mechanism 200 is provided on the frame 100;

[0056] Two tube trough assemblies 110 are provided. The tube trough assemblies 110 are used to carry hoses. The conveying mechanism 200 drives the two tube trough assemblies 110 to cyclically move between the first working position 120 and the second working position 130, so that one tube trough assembly 110 is loading a hose from the first working position 120 while the other tube trough assembly 110 carrying the hose is testing for leaks at the second working position 130; and

[0057] The detection mechanism 300 is provided on the frame 100 , and is used to detect leaks of the hose at the second working position 130 .

[0058] In the technical solution of this utility model, please refer to Figure 1 On the frame 100, a conveying mechanism 200 extending along the first direction is provided, the conveying mechanism 200 connects the first working position 120 and the second working position 130 on the frame 100, and two pipe trough assemblies 110 are placed on the conveying mechanism 200, and the two pipe trough assemblies 110 are respectively circulated between the first working position 120 and the second working position 130 by the driving of the conveying mechanism 200, wherein the pipe trough assembly 110 on the first working position 120 is used for loading, and the assembled hose is placed on the pipe trough assembly 110 of the first working position 120. The tube trough assembly 110 is on the second working position 130. At this time, another group of tube trough assemblies 110 are at the second working position 130. The detection mechanism 300 is used to detect the leak of the hose carried by the tube trough assembly 110 at the second working position 130. When the leak detection of the hose carried by the tube trough assembly 110 at the second working position 130 is completed, the tube trough assembly 110 at the first working position 120 is also loaded.

When one of the pipe trough assemblies 110 is at the first working position 120, loading multiple hoses takes a long time, and the other pipe trough assembly 110 can use a longer time to perform leak detection at the second working position 130. The longer the leak detection time, the more accurate the detection of air pressure fluctuations, thereby avoiding misjudgment caused by short time.

The first synchronous belt 220 and the second synchronous belt 230 are arranged in parallel. The two pipe trough assemblies 110 are respectively mounted on the first synchronous belt 220 and the second synchronous belt 230, and the pipe trough assembly 110 mounted on the first synchronous belt 220 and the second synchronous belt 230 does not contact, the tube trough assembly 110 installed on the second synchronous belt 230 does not contact the first synchronous belt 220, that is, the first synchronous belt 220 drives one of the tube trough assemblies 110 to move back and forth in a circumferential direction between the first working position 120 and the second working position 130, and the second synchronous belt 230 drives the other tube trough assembly 110 to move back and forth between the first working position 120 and the second working position 130, so that the movements of the two tube trough assemblies 110 between the first working position 120 and the second working position 130 do not affect each other.

[0061] In an embodiment of the present invention, the conveying mechanism 200 includes:

[0062] A first driving shaft 240 is rotatably mounted on one end of the mounting base 210;

[0063] The second driving shaft 250 is rotatably mounted on the other end of the mounting base 210;

[0064] Two first pulley assemblies 260 are provided, wherein one first pulley assembly 260 is drivingly connected to the first drive shaft 240 , and the other first pulley assembly 260 is rotationally connected to the second drive shaft 250 , and the two first pulley assemblies 260 drive the first synchronous belt 220 to rotate; and

[0065] Two second pulley assemblies 270 are provided, wherein one second pulley assembly 270 is rotatably connected to the first drive shaft 240 , and the other second pulley assembly 270 is drivably connected to the second drive shaft 250 , and the two second pulley assemblies 270 drive the second synchronous belt 230 to rotate;

[0066] The first synchronous belt 220 is drivingly connected to the first pulley assembly 260 , and the second synchronous belt 230 is drivingly connected to the second pulley.

[0067] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 A first drive shaft 240 and a second drive shaft 250 are rotatably provided at both ends of the mounting seat 210, and a first motor and a second motor are connected to both ends of the mounting seat 210, respectively. The first motor and the second motor drive the first drive shaft 240 and the second drive shaft 250 to rotate respectively, wherein a first pulley assembly 260 is connected to the first drive shaft 240 at one end of the mounting seat 210 for driving, and another first pulley assembly 260 is connected to the second drive shaft 250 at the other end of the mounting seat 210 for rotation through a bearing, and both ends of the first synchronous belt 220 are connected to the two first pulley assemblies 260, so as to realize driving the first drive shaft 240 by the first motor. 40 rotates, the first drive shaft 240 rotates to drive the first pulley assembly 260 connected thereto to rotate, the first pulley assembly 260 rotates to drive the first synchronous belt 220 to rotate, the first synchronous belt 220 drives the first pulley assembly 260 connected to the second drive shaft 250 to rotate, and since the first pulley assembly 260 on the second drive shaft 250 is connected to the second drive shaft 250 through a bearing, the rotation between the two does not affect each other, that is, the first synchronous belt 220 is driven to rotate by the first motor, and the tube groove assembly 110 on the first synchronous belt 220 is also driven to move back and forth in a circumferential direction between the first working position 120 and the second working position 130.

[0068] That is, it can be understood that the second synchronous belt 230 is similar to the first synchronous belt 220. The second motor drives the second drive shaft 250 to rotate. A second pulley assembly 270 is connected to the second drive shaft 250 at one end of the mounting seat 210 for driving, and another second pulley assembly 270 is connected to the first drive shaft 240 at the other end of the mounting seat 210 through a bearing for rotation. That is, the rotation of the first drive shaft 240 and the rotation of the second pulley assembly 270 do not affect each other, and the two ends of the second synchronous belt 230 are connected to the two second pulley assemblies 270 respectively. When the second motor drives the second drive shaft 250 to rotate, the second drive shaft 250 is driven and connected. The rotation of the shaft 250 drives the second pulley assembly 270 installed on the second drive shaft 250 to rotate, and the second pulley assembly 270 on the second drive shaft 250 drives the second synchronous belt 230 to rotate. The rotation of the second synchronous belt 230 drives the second pulley assembly 270 away from the second drive shaft 250 to rotate, that is, the second synchronous belt 230 is driven to rotate by the second motor and drives the tube groove assembly 110 on the second synchronous belt 230 to move back and forth in a circumferential direction between the first working position 120 and the second working position 130, and the movements of the two tube groove assemblies 110 do not interfere with each other, so that different actions can be performed alternately.

[0069] In an embodiment of the present invention, the tube groove assembly 110 includes a plurality of support seats 111 spaced apart along a first direction, each support seat 111 is provided with a support groove 112, and the support groove 112 is used to place a hose;

[0070] The extending direction of the supporting groove 112 is the second direction, and the first direction is different from the second direction.

[0071] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 6 , multiple support seats 111 are spaced apart in the first direction on the first synchronous belt 220 / second synchronous belt 230, and the two ends of the support seat 111 along the second direction are respectively fixed to the mounting seat 210, and each support seat 111 is provided with a support groove 112 extending along the second direction. The first direction is perpendicular to the second direction. The hose is placed in the support groove 112 along the second direction, that is, the pipe head and the pipe tail of the hose are respectively located at the two ends of the support groove 112 along the second direction. When the pipe groove assembly 110 moves to the first working position 120 to load the material, it is connected with the first synchronous belt 210. The step belt 220 / the second synchronous belt 230 rotates from the bottom of the mounting seat 210 to the top of the mounting seat 210, and each support seat 111 will pause when it rotates to the first working position 120 to wait for the material to be loaded in the support groove 112. For example, the first motor drives the first drive shaft 240 to rotate, and the first synchronous belt 220 drives the pipe groove assembly 110 to move from the second working position 130 to the first working position 120. The side of the first synchronous belt 220 connected to the pipe groove assembly 110 rotates from the bottom of the mounting seat 210 to the top of the mounting seat 210. Each When the support base 111 rotates to the top of the mounting base 210, the first motor stops running, so that the first synchronous belt 220 can pause one by one to put the hose into each support groove 112. At this time, the second motor drives the second synchronous belt 230 to rotate and drives another pipe groove assembly 110 to move to the second working position 130, so that each support groove 112 corresponds to the detection mechanism 300. The detection mechanism 300 is used to simultaneously detect the leakage of the hose in each support groove 112, that is, the first synchronous belt 220 pauses one by one to place the hose in each pipe groove assembly 110. When materials are loaded one by one in each support slot 112, the other pipe slot assembly 110 is uniformly tested for leaks at the second working position 130. The two pipe slot assemblies 110 operate alternately to ensure the continuity of the production line and improve the speed of leak detection. When one pipe slot assembly 110 stops to load materials in each support seat 111, the other pipe slot assembly 110 can ensure a longer static leak detection time at the second working position 130. The longer the leak detection time, the more accurate the detection of air pressure fluctuations, which avoids the failure to detect tiny air pressure changes in a short time and avoids misjudgment.

[0072] In an embodiment of the present invention, the detection mechanism 300 includes:

[0073] The mounting frame 310 is located at the second working position 130;

[0074] There are multiple leak detection assemblies 320, which are spaced apart on the mounting frame 310 along the first direction. Each leak detection assembly 320 corresponds to a support groove 112 of the second working position 130 to detect leaks of multiple hoses on the pipe groove assembly 110 of the second working position 130.

[0075] Please refer to Figure 4 The detection mechanism 300 includes a mounting frame 310 and a leak detection assembly 320. Multiple leak detection assemblies 320 are arranged at intervals along the first direction on the mounting frame 310. When the pipe groove assembly 110 moves to the second working position 130, each leak detection assembly 320 corresponds to a support seat 111, and leak detection is performed on the hose supported by each support seat 111 at the same time. At this time, another group of pipe groove assemblies 110 pause at the first working position 120 one by one to complete the loading in each support groove 112. The leak detection time does not exceed the time for pausing and loading at the first working position 120. The two pipe grooves act alternately without interfering with each other, ensuring sufficient leak detection time, which not only improves the leak detection efficiency, but also makes the leak detection stable and accurate.

[0076] In an embodiment of the present invention, the leak detection assembly 320 includes:

[0077] The sealing portion 321 is mounted on one side of the mounting frame 310 and has a vent hole 3211 formed along the second direction.

[0078] A pushing structure 322 is provided on the other side of the mounting frame 310 . The pushing structure 322 pushes the hose in the supporting groove 112 along the second direction so that the rear end of the hose abuts against the sealing portion 321 .

The sealing portion 321 and the pushing structure 322 are respectively arranged on both sides of the mounting frame 310 along the second direction. The sealing portion 321 is provided with a vent hole 3211 along the second direction. When one of the pipe slot assemblies 110 carrying the hose reaches the second working position 130, the pushing structure 322 applies pressure toward the hose head along the second direction toward the sealing portion 321 at one end of the supporting slot 112, so that the tail of the hose is pressed tightly against the sealing portion 321, and the sealing portion 321 is deformed to adapt to the shape of the hose tail. At this time, the air inlet on the hose tail corresponds to the vent hole 3211, thereby realizing the sealing of the hose tail. The hose tail fits tightly with the sealing portion 321 to prevent leakage of the air inlet. The vent hole 3211 is connected to the air pipe, the pressure gauge and the solenoid valve, and the solenoid valve is connected to the ventilation structure. When the sealing part 321 cooperates with the pushing structure 322 to seal the hose, the solenoid valve is opened, and compressed air is injected into the hose cavity through the air inlet. After reaching the set pressure, the solenoid valve is closed, and the injection of compressed air into the hose is stopped. After waiting for a certain period of time, the pressure gauge detects whether the pressure changes. If the pressure changes, the hose is poorly sealed and there is an air leak. If the pressure does not change, the hose is a qualified product. Multiple leak detection components 320 can be used to detect leaks on multiple hoses at the same time, which is more efficient. Generally, the number of leak detection components 320 is the same as the number of support seats 111 in each pipe groove component 110, and the distance between them along the first direction is also the same.

[0082] Among them, the sealing part 321 can be made of soft rubber material so that it can adaptively deform when receiving the pressure of the pushing structure 322 to better seal the tube tail. The pushing structure 322 can use a linear drive structure such as a cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder or an electric telescopic rod to apply force to the hose in the second direction to push the hose toward the sealing part 321.

[0083] In an embodiment of the present invention, the detection mechanism 300 further includes a driving assembly 330 , which is disposed on the mounting frame 310 and drives the connecting sealing portion 321 and the pushing structure 322 to move the sealing portion 321 and the pushing structure 322 closer to or farther from each other in the second direction.

[0084] Please refer to Figure 5, a driving assembly 330 is installed at both ends of the mounting frame 310 along the first direction, and a first mounting plate 340 and a second mounting plate 350 are respectively provided on both sides along the second direction, the first mounting plate 340 and the second mounting plate 350 both extend along the first direction, and the first mounting plate 340 is used to install the sealing portion 321 at intervals, and the second mounting plate 350 is used to install the pushing structure 322 at intervals, the driving assembly 330 includes a guide rod 331, a sliding portion 332 and a locking member 333, the outer periphery of the guide rod 331 is provided with two sliding portions 332, and the guide rod 331 is also connected to the mounting frame 310 at the middle of the two sliding portions 332, the two sliding portions 332 on the guide rod 331 are respectively connected to the first mounting plate 340 and the second mounting plate 350, The lock member 333 is provided with a locking member 333, which is connected to the guide rod 331 by a loose screw. In this embodiment, the distance between the pushing structure 322 and the sealing portion 321 can be adjusted along the length direction of the guide rod 331 through the sliding portion 332 to accommodate hoses of different lengths, thereby facilitating leak detection of hoses of different lengths. When the distance between the pushing structure 322 and the sealing portion 321 needs to be adjusted, the loose screw is loosened. At this time, the locking member 333 and the guide rod 331 are in a non-locked state, and the two sliding portions 332 on the guide rod 331 are slid on the guide rod 331 to make the first mounting plate 340 and the second mounting plate 350 approach or move away from each other. After reaching the appropriate distance, the locking member 333 is locked on the guide rod 331 by the loose screw.

[0085] In an embodiment of the present invention, the hose leak detector further includes a waste box 410 and a pipe conveyor belt 400. The waste box 410 and the pipe conveyor belt 400 are located on both sides of the second working position 130. The waste box 410 is used to accommodate hoses that fail the inspection, and the pipe conveyor belt 400 is used to convey hoses that pass the inspection.

[0086] Please refer to Figure 1 A waste box 410 and a pipe outlet conveyor belt 400 are respectively provided on both sides of the conveying mechanism 200 of the rack 100 along the second direction. When the leak detection component 320 completes the leak detection of the hose on the pipe groove component 110, the qualified hose without leakage is placed on the pipe outlet conveyor belt 400 and sent to the next process, while the hose with leakage is placed in the waste box 410 for easy classification.

[0087] In an embodiment of the present invention, the hose leak detector further includes a transport mechanism 500, which is used to transport qualified hoses detected at the second working position 130 to the pipe outlet conveyor belt 400, and to transport unqualified hoses to the waste bin 410. By providing the transport mechanism 500 to classify the hoses, manual labor can be reduced, efficiency can be improved, and costs can be reduced.

[0088] In an embodiment of the present invention, the transport mechanism 500 includes:

[0089] The support frame 510 is located at the second working position 130;

[0090] The translation assembly 520 is provided on the support frame 510;

[0091] The lifting assembly 530 is arranged on the translation assembly 520 and is driven and connected to the detection mechanism 300. The translation assembly 520 drives the lifting assembly 530 to move along the second direction to approach the pipe outlet conveyor belt 400 or the waste box 410. The lifting assembly 530 drives the mounting frame 310 to rise and fall in the vertical direction so that the leak detection assembly 320 approaches or moves away from the pipe groove assembly 110 of the second working position 130.

[0092] Please refer to Figure 4 The transport mechanism 500 includes a support frame 510, a translation assembly 520, and a lifting assembly 530. The support frame 510 is installed on the frame 100. The support frame 510 can be a gantry frame, and the translation assembly 520 and the lifting assembly 530 are both installed on the support frame 510. The lifting assembly 530 drives the connection mounting frame 310 to drive the mounting frame 310 to move up and down in the vertical direction, and then drives the lifting assembly 530 to move in the second direction through the translation assembly 520, so that the lifting assembly 530 and the mounting frame 310 are close to the waste box 410. Or the pipe conveyor belt 400, specifically, the lifting assembly 530 includes a support plate 531, the support plate 531 is arranged in parallel with the mounting frame 310, and the support plate 531 is located above the mounting frame 310, a driving motor 532 and a screw rod 533 are arranged on the support plate 531, the output end of the driving motor 532 is connected to a synchronous wheel, the outer periphery of the screw rod 533 is threadedly connected to a synchronous wheel, the two synchronous wheels are connected by a conveyor belt, the screw rod 533 passes through the support plate 531 and is connected to the mounting frame 310, the driving motor 532 is driven by The synchronous wheel rotates, causing the screw rod 533 to move in the vertical direction, thereby realizing the vertical movement of the mounting frame 310. An outer frame (not shown) is provided on the periphery of the driving motor 532, the two synchronous wheels and the conveyor belt to prevent dust from entering and avoid affecting the stability of the operation. In addition, a guide cylinder 534 is provided on the support plate 531, and a guide rod 535 is provided in the guide cylinder 534 for sliding. The guide rod 535 passes downward through the support plate 531 and is connected to the mounting frame 310. When the motor starts to drive the mounting frame 310 to rise and fall, the mounting frame The guide rod 535 connected to 310 slides in the guide cylinder 534 to improve the stability of lifting. The translation assembly 520 includes a motor and a belt. The belt extends along the second direction on the support frame 510. One end of the support plate 531 is connected to the belt. The motor drives the belt to rotate, so that the support plate 531 moves along the second direction on the support frame 510, thereby driving the leakage detection assembly 320 to move along the second direction. A slider is set at the other end of the support plate 531, and cooperates with the guide rail extending along the second direction set on the support frame 510.

[0093] The specific implementation process is as follows: when the pipe trough assembly 110 carrying the hose moves to the second working position 130, at this time, the translation assembly 520 drives the lifting assembly 530 to move to the pipe trough assembly 110 just above the second working position 130, and the lifting assembly 530 drives the mounting frame 310 to descend, so that each leak detection assembly 320 corresponds to a support groove 112, which is convenient for the leak detection assembly 320 to detect the hose in the support groove 112. When the leak detection is completed, the pushing structure 322 continues to cooperate with the sealing part 321 to press the hose, and the lifting assembly 530 drives the mounting frame 310 to rise, and drives the lifting assembly 530 to move along the second direction toward the waste box 410 through the translation assembly 520, and releases the waste box 410. The unqualified hose is placed and dropped into the waste bin 410 by the retraction of the pushing structure 322 corresponding to the hose. At this time, the distance between the hose and the sealing portion 321 increases, thereby releasing the hose. For example, if the pushing structure 322 adopts a cylinder, the piston rod of the cylinder retracts, thereby releasing the head of the hose. After the unqualified hose is placed in the waste bin 410, the translation assembly 520 drives the lifting assembly 530 to move along the second direction toward the pipe outlet conveyor belt 400. When it reaches above the pipe outlet conveyor belt 400, the pushing structure 322 corresponding to the remaining qualified hose retracts, releasing the hose onto the pipe outlet conveyor belt 400. The pipe outlet conveyor belt 400 conveys the qualified hose to the next step for further processing.

[0094] Among them, the lifting component 530 is not limited to the above embodiment, and can also adopt a linear moving structure such as a cylinder, which is installed on the support plate 531, and the piston rod passes downward through the support plate 531 to connect to the mounting frame 310, and the mounting frame 310 is driven to rise and fall by the extension and contraction of the piston rod.
