[0002] A power steering pump is a component that helps improve the performance and stability of a vehicle. Its main function is to assist the driver in adjusting the vehicle's direction. All automobiles have power steering pumps, primarily power steering pumps and brake vacuum booster pumps. The airtightness of the power steering pump directly affects its performance. Most existing airtightness testing devices use interface connections and introduce gas to measure pressure changes to check the airtightness. However, the interface of this testing structure is usually fixed, which is very inconvenient when testing different sizes and types of power steering pumps. Therefore, it is necessary to design a power steering pump airtightness testing device to facilitate airtightness testing of different sizes and types of power steering pumps, thereby ensuring that the power steering pump has qualified airtightness at the factory.

Then, control the rotary motor to move the booster pump above the test liquid tank. Then, use the push rod motor to immerse the booster pump in the test liquid. Finally, use the pressurized air pump to deliver pressurized gas to the adapter through the connecting hose. Then, use the adapter to fill the booster pump with pressurized gas through the air inlet head and continuously increase the pressure to the specified value. The sealing performance is judged by observing the bubble generation on the surface of the booster pump.

[0006] The inner ring of the locking cover is provided with a sealing ring.

[0007] The above structure serves a sealing function.

[0008] The bottom of the test liquid tank is connected to an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe.
