Description
Technical Field

[0002] Battery and airtightness testing for new energy vehicles are crucial for ensuring the safety and performance of electric vehicles. With increasing environmental awareness and technological advancements, the electric vehicle market is growing rapidly, leading to increasingly stringent requirements for battery safety. As the "heart" of a new energy vehicle, the battery's performance directly impacts the vehicle's range and safety. Airtightness testing is a key step in preventing internal battery leakage and the intrusion of external moisture and gases, ensuring the battery's long-term stable operation. Effective testing methods can promptly identify potential safety hazards, protecting the safety of drivers and passengers. Therefore, batteries and their airtightness testing hold a vital position in the new energy vehicle industry.
[0003] Most existing new energy vehicle batteries rely on instruments to inject detection gas into the battery and judge whether there is a leak by the gas pressure. However, it is difficult to determine the damage point of a leaking battery. Immersion test can effectively determine the leak point. However, this type of test requires a large amount of water, and the car battery is inconvenient to remove from the liquid injection container. Therefore, this application provides a new energy vehicle battery airtightness testing device. Utility Model Content
