[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the utility model provides a dishwasher pump housing airtightness test jig, including a lower jig 1, an upper jig 2 and a dishwasher pump housing body 3, and also includes:

[0025] A pressing tool, which is provided on the lower jig 1 and the upper jig 2 and is used to position the dishwasher pump housing body 3;

[0026] A testing mechanism, which is provided on the pressing tool and is used to test the air tightness of the dishwasher pump housing body 3;

[0027] The pressing tooling includes a support column 5, which is fixed to the top of the lower jig 1. Two sets of limit columns 4 are installed on the top of the lower jig 1, and an extrusion piece 6 is installed on the bottom of the upper jig 2.

[0028] Among them, the detection mechanism includes a pneumatic cylinder 9, which is fixed on the top of the lower jig 1. The end of the pneumatic cylinder 9 is connected to a sealing gasket 10. An air outlet 7 is opened inside the support column 5, and an air inlet 8 is opened on one side of the lower jig 1.

[0029] Through the limiting column 4 and the supporting column 5, the dishwasher pump housing body 3 can be accurately placed on the lower jig 1, and at the same time, the upper jig 2 is controlled to move downward by the external pneumatic cylinder, so that it squeezes the dishwasher pump housing body 3 through the extrusion piece 6, and supports the inner wall of the dishwasher pump housing body 3 through the supporting column 5, so that the dishwasher pump housing body 3 can be stably fixed, and the dishwasher pump housing body 3 can be prevented from being deformed by excessive pressure. At this time, through the operation of the pneumatic cylinder 9, the sealing gasket 10 can be controlled to seal the side hole of the dishwasher pump housing body 3. At this time, the airtightness instrument can be used to pass through the precision pressure reducing valve through the air inlet hole 8 and the air outlet hole 7 to flush the set pressure into the interior of the dishwasher pump housing body 3. The pressure sensor in the airtightness instrument detects the cavity pressure change, calculates the leakage value, and determines whether the product is qualified.

[0030] like Figure 2 、 3 As shown, the upper jig 2 cooperates with an external pneumatic cylinder to control the up and down movement, and the bottom surface of the extrusion member 6 is in compression contact with the dishwasher pump housing body 3.

[0031] By controlling the upper jig 2 to move up and down, the extrusion member 6 can be driven to squeeze and limit the dishwasher pump housing body 3, and the upper jig 2 can be controlled to rise to facilitate the removal of the dishwasher pump housing body 3.

[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, the top end of the support column 5 and the extrusion piece 6 are both made of rubber, and the top end of the support column 5 is in extrusion contact with the inner wall of the dishwasher pump housing 3 .

[0033] Through the design of the support column 5 and the extrusion piece 6, since the top end of the support column 5 and the extrusion piece 6 are made of rubber, when they are squeezed with the dishwasher pump housing body 3, wear on the dishwasher pump housing body 3 is avoided.

[0034] like Figure 1 、 3 As shown, the air inlet 8 is connected to the air outlet 7, the air outlet 7 is connected to the interior of the dishwasher pump housing 3, and the air inlet 8 is connected to an external airtightness tester.

[0035] Through the coordination between the air inlet 8 and the air outlet 7 , the airtightness tester can control the input pressure of the cavity formed between the dishwasher pump housing body 3 and the lower jig 1 , thereby facilitating the control of the airtightness of the cavity inside the dishwasher pump housing body 3 .

[0036] like Figure 1 、 2 As shown, the limiting posts 4 block both sides of the outer periphery of the dishwasher pump housing 3 and fit in with the surface of the dishwasher pump housing 3 .

[0037] The cooperation between the limiting column 4 and the dishwasher pump housing body 3 can limit the position of the dishwasher pump housing body 3 on the top of the lower jig 1, thereby preventing the dishwasher pump housing body 3 from being shifted when the dishwasher pump housing body 3 is squeezed.

[0038] like Figure 1 、 3 As shown, the sealing gasket 10 is in squeeze contact with the side hole of the dishwasher pump housing body 3. When the extrusion member 6 squeezes the dishwasher pump housing body 3, the dishwasher pump housing body 3 is tightly fitted with the lower jig 1, and the contact surface of the dishwasher pump housing body 3 and the lower jig 1 is bonded with silicone.

[0039] By operating the pneumatic cylinder 9, the position of the sealing gasket 10 can be adjusted, so that the side hole of the dishwasher pump housing body 3 can be squeezed by the sealing gasket 10, which facilitates sealing the side hole of the dishwasher pump housing body 3. At the same time, since the contact surface between the dishwasher pump housing body 3 and the lower jig 1 is bonded with silicone, the bottom of the dishwasher pump housing body 3 can be sealed when the extrusion piece 6 squeezes the dishwasher pump housing body 3.

[0040] Working principle:

[0041] First, place the dishwasher pump housing body 3 on the lower jig 1, and limit the position of the dishwasher pump housing body 3 by the support column 5 and the limit column 4. Then, the upper jig 2 is controlled to move downward by the external pneumatic cylinder, so that it squeezes the dishwasher pump housing body 3 through the extrusion piece 6, and supports the inner wall of the dishwasher pump housing body 3 through the support column 5, so that the dishwasher pump housing body 3 can be stably fixed, and the dishwasher pump housing body 3 can be prevented from being deformed by excessive pressure. At this time, through the operation of the pneumatic cylinder 9, the sealing gasket 10 can be controlled to seal the side hole of the dishwasher pump housing body 3. Finally, the set pressure can be injected into the interior of the dishwasher pump housing body 3 through the precision pressure reducing valve through the air inlet hole 8 and the air outlet hole 7 using an airtightness meter. The pressure sensor in the airtightness meter detects the pressure change in the cavity, calculates the leakage value, and determines whether the product is qualified.

[0042] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
