Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of condenser detection, in particular to an automobile condenser detection device. Background Technique
[0002] In an automobile air conditioning system, the condenser is a crucial component. It is responsible for dissipating heat and cooling the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant vapor discharged by the compressor, condensing it into a liquid high-pressure refrigerant, thereby discharging the heat inside the vehicle, reducing the temperature inside the vehicle, providing a comfortable driving environment, and filtering out dust and other pollutants in the air to improve the air quality inside the vehicle. Insufficient condenser sealing will lead to reduced condensation effect, increased energy loss, and shortened service life.
[0003] The existing method for detecting the sealing of an automobile condenser is to connect the inlet and outlet of the condenser through pipes, put it into water, transport compressed air into the condenser through the pipes, and observe whether there are bubbles in the water. If there are bubbles, the position where the bubbles occur leaks, and if there are no bubbles, the sealing is qualified. However, this method has certain hidden dangers. Some areas with poor sealing may not leak due to too small compressed air pressure, and when the outlet end of the condenser is blocked and the air is transported for detection, it may damage the condenser pipes due to too high air pressure. In addition, the interface models of different condensers are different, and it is very troublesome and time-consuming to replace the corresponding pipe joints. Content of the Utility Model
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the above technical difficulties and provide an automobile condenser detection device, which can maintain the air pressure in the condenser at a fixed value through a constant-pressure exhaust structure, and after the pipes are connected to condensers with different model interfaces, quick fixation and sealing are achieved through a sealing clamping structure.

The threaded sleeve is formed on the top of one connecting plate and the sleeve is formed on the top of the other connecting plate. The threaded sleeve is fitted and slidably disposed in the sleeve. One end of the lead screw is threaded into the threaded sleeve, and the other end is rotatably disposed on the connecting plate on which the sleeve is fixed. After passing through the connecting plate, a knob is fixed thereon. After the knob is rotated, the two connecting plates move relative to each other or in opposite directions.
[0014] As an improvement, the transfer frame is a sieve plate structure with handles fixed at both ends, and the handles are inverted U-shaped rod structures.

[0026] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0027] An automotive condenser testing device, such as Figure 1 , 2 As shown, its main body is the testing box 1, which is a square box structure with an open top. A pipe-laying cavity (used to arrange various air pipes) is provided on the rear side. A round hole is pre-drilled on the front side wall of the pipe-laying cavity, and the connection between the round hole and the air pipe is sealed. Support feet are fixed at the four corners of the bottom. A water supply pipe 20 is installed on the top of the side wall of the testing box 1, and a drain pipe 21 is installed at the bottom. Valves are installed on both the drain pipe 21 and the water supply pipe 20, which are used to fill, drain, and replace the water in the testing box 1. A splash guard 10 is hinged to the top of the testing box 1. The splash guard 10 is a transparent plate structure adapted to the top of the testing box 1. A magnetic strip 11 (such as...) is embedded in the splash guard 10. Figure 1 As shown, the magnetic strip 11 is set on the free side of the splash guard 10, and a metal strip 12 is set on the top of the detection box 1 corresponding to the magnetic strip 11. After the splash guard 10 is covered on the detection box 1, the magnetic strip 11 and the metal strip 12 are attracted to each other.
[0028] Transfer frame 22, such as Figure 3 As shown, it is a plate structure with handles fixed at both ends, and the handles are inverted U-shaped rod structures. The plate of the transfer frame 22 is evenly provided with a large number of drainage holes (to reduce water accumulation on the plate). The transfer frame 22 is placed in the test box 1, and the condenser 23 is placed into the test box 1 through the transfer frame 22 (the main function of the transfer frame 22 is to facilitate the handling and placement of the condenser 23).
[0029] High-pressure gas transmission structure and constant-pressure exhaust structure, such as Figure 1 , 4As shown, both are located on the rear side of the test chamber 1 and are connected to the condenser 23 inside the test chamber 1, and are fixed by a sealing clamping structure. Specifically, the high-pressure gas transmission structure includes a compressed air tank 19, a gas transmission pipe 2, and a gas transmission valve 4. The compressed air tank 19 (which is existing technology and comes with a pressure gauge, connector, and valve) is located on the rear side of the test chamber 1 and is connected to the air inlet of the condenser 23 via the gas transmission pipe 2. The gas transmission valve 4 is located on the gas transmission pipe 2 and is fixed to the top of the pipe-laying cavity of the test chamber 1 (for easy access). The operation involves the gas supply pipe 2 passing through the round hole on the front side wall of the pipe cavity and entering the test box 1; the constant pressure exhaust structure includes an exhaust pipe 3, an exhaust valve 5, a pressure cylinder 13, a pressure relief valve 14, an adjusting cap 16, a piston 17, and a compression spring 18; the pressure cylinder 13 is a circular cylinder with an open bottom and an internal thread structure at the bottom; one end of the exhaust pipe 3 is connected to the outlet end of the condenser 23, and the other end is connected to the top of the pressure cylinder 13 (the exhaust pipe 3 is the same as the gas supply pipe 2, arranged in the pipe cavity), and a check valve is provided at the connection (to prevent gas backflow). (Causing damage to condenser 23), exhaust valve 5 is located on exhaust pipe 3 and fixed at the top of the pipe cavity of test box 1 (located on the other side of gas supply valve 4), piston 17 is movably located inside pressure cylinder 13, and adjusting cap 16 is threadedly fitted to the bottom of pressure cylinder 13 and connected to piston 17 through compression spring 18 (adjusting cap 16 has a strip-shaped handle at the bottom), exhaust hole 15 is formed in the middle of the side wall of pressure cylinder 13, and pressure relief valve 14 is also provided at the top. After the gas enters the pressure cylinder 13 through exhaust pipe 3, the gas inside condenser 23 and the gas The gas pressure inside the cylinder 13 increases synchronously, causing the piston 17 to descend and compress the spring 18. After the top surface of the piston 17 moves to the exhaust port 15, some gas is discharged through the exhaust port 15. After the piston 17 blocks the exhaust port 15, the gas pressure rises again and presses the piston 17 down. Finally, a constant pressure is maintained at the exhaust port 15 (at this time, the exhaust volume is equal to the gas supply volume, and the gas pressure is equal to the elastic force of the spring 18). In addition, after the pressure relief valve 14 is opened, the gas is discharged from the pressure relief valve 14, and the piston 17 is pushed upward by the spring 18 to exhaust all the gas in the cylinder 13.The gas supply pipe 2 and the exhaust pipe 3 are connected to the condenser 23 through universal connectors at their ends (the universal connectors are inserted into or sleeved on the condenser 23 interface; the size of the universal connectors may not be compatible with the condenser 23 interface). The sealing and clamping structure includes a sleeve 7, a threaded sleeve 6, a connecting plate 8, and a screw 9. A pair of connecting plates 8 are located on both sides of the condenser 23, and their bottoms are respectively connected and fixed to the universal connectors of the exhaust pipe 3 and the gas supply pipe 2 (the opposite faces of the connecting plates 8 are provided with sealing gaskets corresponding to the interfaces of the condenser 23). The threaded sleeve 6 is formed on the top of one connecting plate 8, and the sleeve 7 is formed on the top of the other connecting plate 8. The threaded sleeve 6 is slidably disposed within the sleeve 7. One end of the screw 9 is threadedly sleeved within the threaded sleeve 6, and the other end is rotatably disposed on the connecting plate 8 on which the sleeve 7 is fixed, and a knob is fixed thereon. After the knob is rotated, the two connecting plates 8 move relative to each other or away from each other (after relative movement, the opposite faces of the two connecting plates 8 abut against the side wall of the condenser 23 and form a seal through the sealing gasket).
[0030] In the specific implementation of this embodiment:
[0031] Check if the pressure of compressed air tank 19 is normal (replace or refill compressed air tank 19 if the pressure is insufficient). Lift the splash guard 10 on the top of the test box 1, take out the transfer rack 22, and place the condenser 23 to be tested on the transfer rack 22. Then transfer the condenser 23 into the test box 1 through the transfer rack 22. Connect the air supply pipe 2 and the exhaust pipe 3 to the air inlet and outlet ports of the condenser 23 respectively. By rotating the knob of the screw 9, reduce the distance between the two connecting plates 8, and fix the air supply pipe 2 and the exhaust pipe 3 in the corresponding positions of the condenser 23, and seal the connection. Rotate the adjusting cap 16 at the bottom of the air pressure cylinder 13 to adjust the initial length of the compression spring 18 so that the compression spring 18 has a certain initial potential energy (the final air pressure potential energy is equal to the set initial potential energy and the fixed elastic potential energy generated by the fixed displacement distance), and the final air pressure potential energy is kept within the pressure range that the condenser 23 pipeline can withstand.
[0032] Close the splash guard 10, open the water supply pipe 20 valve to start water supply, and after the test box 1 is completely submerged in water, close the water supply pipe 20 valve, open the gas supply valve 4 and the exhaust valve 5. Compressed air in the compressed air tank 19 enters the condenser 23 through the gas supply pipe 2 and enters the pressure cylinder 13 through the exhaust pipe 3, causing the gas pressure in the condenser 23 and the pressure cylinder 13 to rise synchronously. Under the action of gas pressure, the piston 17 descends and compresses the compression spring 18. After the top surface of the piston 17 moves to the exhaust port 15, some gas is discharged through the exhaust port 15. After the piston 17 rises and blocks the exhaust port 15, the gas pressure rises again and presses the piston 17 down. Finally, a constant pressure is maintained at the exhaust port 15 (at this time, the exhaust volume is equal to the gas supply volume, and the gas pressure is equal to the spring force of the compression spring 18). At the same time, the constant pressure gas in the condenser 23 tests the sealing performance of the condenser 23, and leaks at the point of insufficient sealing are marked and displayed in the form of bubbles.
[0033] After the test is completed, close the gas supply valve 4 and the exhaust valve 5, open the drain pipe 21 valve to drain the water. After the water is drained, open the pressure relief valve 14, and the gas is discharged from the pressure relief valve 14. The piston 17 is pushed up by the compression spring 18 to discharge the gas in the air pressure cylinder 13. At this time, open the splash guard 10 and rotate the screw 9 knob in the opposite direction to make the two connecting plates 8 move in opposite directions. Then remove the exhaust pipe 3 and the gas supply pipe 2 from the condenser 23 and move the condenser 23 out to dry through the transfer rack 22.
[0034] The above description of the present invention and its embodiments is non-limiting. The drawings show only one embodiment of the present invention, and the actual structure is not limited thereto. In short, if a person skilled in the art is inspired by the above, and does not deviate from the purpose of the present invention, without inventive design, a structure and embodiment similar to the technical solution should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
