[0027] Wherein, both ends of the lifting block 11 are fixedly connected to a stabilizing rod 13, and one end of the stabilizing rod 13 is slidably connected to the connecting frame 14.

[0028] Among them; the connecting frame 14 is rotatably connected to the linkage shaft 17, one end of the linkage shaft 17 passes through the base 1, and both ends of the linkage shaft 17 are coaxially fixedly connected to bevel gear three 18, one bevel gear three 18 is engaged with a bevel gear four 24, and the bevel gear four 24 is coaxially fixedly connected to a worm 19, and the worm 19 is rotatably connected to the inner top of the base 1, and one end of the worm 19 is engaged with a worm wheel 20, and the worm wheel 20 is coaxially fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 2.

[0029] Among them; the top of the connecting frame 14 is provided with a rotating shaft 15 for horizontal rotation, and both ends of the rotating shaft 15 are coaxially fixedly connected to a bevel gear 16, a bevel gear 16 is engaged with a bevel gear 23, and the bevel gear 23 is coaxially fixedly connected to the output shaft of the rotating motor 7, and another bevel gear 16 is engaged with another bevel gear 3 18.

[0030] Among them, an air pump 21 is provided inside the base 1, and air injection pipes 22 are fixedly connected to both sides of the air pump 21. One end of the two air injection pipes 22 passes through the top of the base 1. Through the built-in air pump 21, gas can be directly injected into the aluminum alloy die-casting clamped and sealed in the sealing cover 12, so that the air tightness of the die-casting can be detected by observing the bubble reaction on the surface of the die-casting, thereby improving the detection accuracy of the air tightness of the automotive aluminum alloy die-casting.

[0031] There are two racks 4, and the two racks 4 are arranged opposite to each other.

[0032] Working principle: when in use, first place the automobile aluminum alloy die-casting with the detection foam reagent sprayed on the surface on the workbench 6, and connect the air injection pipe 22 to the automobile aluminum alloy die-casting, and then transmit the rotational power of the output shaft of the motor 7 directly to the bevel gear 2 23 coaxially and tightly connected thereto, so that the bevel gear 2 23 starts to rotate, and this rotational action is further transmitted through the transmission system, specifically by rotating shaft 2 15 and the bevel gear 1 16 connected thereto to drive, bevel gear 1 16 and bevel gear 3 18 are meshed with each other, so the rotation of bevel gear 1 16 will drive bevel gear 3 18 and its coaxial fixed linkage shaft 17 to rotate together, and one end thereof penetrates into the interior of the base 1, and drives another bevel gear 3 18 located inside to rotate, and this internal bevel gear 3 18 is then meshed with bevel gear 4 24, thereby transmitting the rotational power to bevel gear 4 24. Bevel gear four 24 is a key component, and its rotation directly controls the rotation of the worm 19. The worm 19 and the worm wheel 20 are connected by a meshing relationship, so the rotation of the worm 19 will drive the worm wheel 20 to rotate. The worm wheel 20 is coaxially fixed to the rotating shaft 2, so the rotation of the worm wheel 20 will drive the rotating shaft 2 and the spur gear 3 coaxially fixed at one end to rotate together. As the spur gear 3 rotates, the two racks 4 meshing with it will move in opposite directions. This movement is converted into a converging force toward the center of the carrier 6 through the connecting rod 5. Finally, this converging force acts on the automotive aluminum alloy die-casting placed on the top of the carrier 6 to achieve its clamping and fixation.

[0033] At the same time, when the motor 7 starts and drives the clamping assembly to move, the spur gear 2 8 at the end of its output shaft also starts to rotate. The rotational power of the spur gear 2 8 is transmitted through the spur gear 3 9 that is tightly meshed with it. The spur gear 3 9 is coaxially fixedly connected to the screw rod 10, so the screw rod 10 also rotates. The screw rod 10 serves as a transmission element, and its threaded portion matches the thread inside the lifting block 11, forming a spiral transmission mechanism. As the screw rod 10 rotates, the lifting block 11 descends along the axial trajectory of the screw rod 10. This descending movement is smooth and controllable, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the sealing process, and the lifting block 11 descends along the axial trajectory of the screw rod 10. The lowering block 11 is connected to the sealing cover 12, so the descent of the lifting block 11 will also drive the sealing cover 12 to descend together. The descending movement of the sealing cover 12 gradually covers and fits tightly against the automotive aluminum alloy die-casting fixed by the clamping assembly, thereby achieving sealing of the die-casting. This sealing process is crucial for the airtightness test of the device, because it ensures the sealing of the environment around the die-casting during the test and avoids the influence of external air on the test results. Then, air is pumped into the die-casting through the air pump 21 through the air injection pipe 22, so as to observe whether bubbles are generated on the surface of the die-casting through the sealing cover 12 to test its airtightness.
