DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0034] In order to make the content of the utility model more easily be clearly understood, the following according to specific embodiment and combining the drawings, the utility model is further explained in detail.

[0035] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 As shown in the figure, the embodiment provides a kind of gas permeable membrane detection device, including: gas washing bottle 1, membrane fixing bottle 2 in gas washing bottle 1, and the gas inlet assembly used in cooperation with membrane fixing bottle 2.

[0036] Next, roughly, gas washing bottle 1, with hollow containing cavity 4;Gas washing bottle 1 is connected with the gas outlet pipe 5 that communicates with containing cavity 4, and gas outlet pipe 5 is configured with flow meter 6.To control the on-off of gas outlet pipe 5, first control valve 7 is also configured on gas outlet pipe 5.

[0037] More specifically, the top of gas washing bottle 1 is formed with open mouth, and the bottom of gas washing bottle 1 is detachably connected with bottle cap suitable for covering open mouth;And gas outlet pipe 5 is connected with bottle cap.

[0038] Furthermore, an alternative embodiment is described, bottle cap includes the body 8 for covering open mouth from outside and the insertion part 9 suitable for being inserted into open mouth in the side end of body 8;Insertion part 9 is suitable for sealing cooperation with open mouth.

[0039] For this, in an alternative embodiment, gas washing bottle 1 is made of transparent glass material;The bottle cap is made of elastic material, which can be, for example, but not limited to, rubber or silicone, and the sealing cooperation between the insertion part 9 of the bottle cap and the open mouth of the containing cavity 4 is realized by interference fit.Based on this, regarding the cooperation between gas outlet pipe 5 and bottle cap, the gas outlet pipe 5 here can be made of glass or plastic material, and the pipe hole for cooperating with gas outlet pipe 5 is through between the body 8 and insertion part 9 of bottle cap, so that the sealing cooperation between gas outlet pipe 5 and bottle cap can also be realized by interference fit with pipe hole.

[0040] Next, it is to be explained that, about the membrane fixing bottle 2, it is arranged in the washing bottle 1, and the side wall of the membrane fixing bottle 2 has a hollow opening 21 which is suitable to be covered by the breathable membrane 3; the side of the hollow opening 21 which is opposite to the breathable membrane 3 is also connected with the air charging pipe 10; the air inlet pipe 11 of the air charging pipe 10 is extended to the outside of the washing bottle 1 through the washing bottle 1.

[0041] More specifically, taking an optional implementation as an example, the outer wall surface of the side end of the membrane fixing bottle 2 which is shaped with the hollow opening 21 is a smooth surface, which is mainly designed to make the breathable membrane 3 better adhere to the outer wall surface of the membrane fixing bottle 2 to form the covering of the hollow opening 21. Correspondingly, the membrane fixing bottle 2 can be made of glass material, that is, the implementation realizes the fixation of the breathable membrane 3 by utilizing the characteristic that the breathable membrane 3 is easy to adhere to the glass material. Of course, in order to ensure the firmness and the sealing performance of the cooperation structure formed between the breathable membrane 3 and the membrane fixing bottle 2, the breathable membrane 3 and the outer wall surface of the membrane fixing bottle 2 can also be adhered by sealing glue.

[0042] It should be noted that the membrane fixing bottle 2 is suitable to enter and exit the washing bottle 1 from the open mouth; and the air charging pipe 10 penetrates the bottle cap, and the air charging pipe 10 is sealingly cooperated with the bottle cap. The air charging pipe 10 can be made of glass or plastic material, and a pipe hole for cooperating with the air charging pipe 10 is penetrated between the body 8 and the insertion part 9 of the bottle cap, so that the air charging pipe 10 can also realize the sealing cooperation between the air charging pipe 10 and the bottle cap by interference fit with the pipe hole.

[0043] For this purpose, taking an optional implementation as an example, the membrane fixing bottle 2 is a cuboid structure, for which the shape of the hollow opening 21 is rectangular, and the air outlet pipe 5 of the air charging pipe 10 is suitable to cover the hollow opening 21.

[0044] Next, it is to be explained that the air inlet assembly includes the air inlet pipe 11 connected with the air inlet pipe 11 of the air charging pipe 10, the air pump 12 connected with the air inlet pipe 11, and the U-shaped pipe 13 connected with the air inlet pipe 11 and located between the air pump 12 and the air charging pipe 10. The air inlet pipe 11 is connected with the U-shaped pipe 13 through a branch pipe 14, and the second control valve 15 for controlling the on-off between the air inlet pipe 11 and the U-shaped pipe 13 is arranged on the branch pipe 14.

[0045] In order to realize the breathable amount of the breathable membrane 3 under different pressure differences, the U-shaped pipe adopted by the embodiment includes the left vertical pipe 131 and the right vertical pipe 132 which are connected through penetration; and the left vertical pipe 131 is higher than the right vertical pipe 132; the right vertical pipe 132 is connected with the air inlet pipe 11.

[0046] At the top of the left vertical tube 131, an inlet for liquid can be designed, which is provided with a detachable cap 133. In an alternative embodiment, a liquid outlet 134 with a valve can be provided at the bottom of the U-shaped tube 13 for the convenience of adjusting the water level in the U-shaped tube.

[0047] More specifically, the left vertical tube 131 is provided with a positive scale 135, and the right vertical tube 132 is provided with a negative scale 136; and the zero points of the positive scale 135 and the negative scale 136 are aligned. More specifically, in combination with the drawings, the directions of the scales of the two sides are opposite, the scale on the right vertical tube 132 is from 0 point downwards, and the scale on the left vertical tube 131 is from 0 point upwards. The initial water level is aligned with the 0 point scale 137, the height difference of the scales of the two sides is symmetrical (or approximately symmetrical), and the maximum scale difference between the two sides is greater than or equal to the maximum pressure to be tested (the scale difference in the figure is 30 cm, and the maximum measurable pressure is 3 kPa. If a larger pressure is to be measured, the U-shaped tube should be longer). During testing, water is placed in the U-shaped tube 13, and the water level is aligned with the 0 scale position. When the "to-be-tested gas permeable membrane 3" is tightly attached to the outer wall of the bottle 2 and covers the opening 21, a stable amount of air flow is introduced into the air inlet tube 11 through the air pump 12, the air flow is adjusted and fixed, in this state, the water level difference between the two ends of the U-shaped tube will have a height difference, after the water level is stable, the water level difference h is read, and the atmospheric pressure calculation formula P = ρgh is used, where ρ is the density of water, g is the acceleration of gravity, and h is the depth difference of water between the left tube and the right tube of the U-shaped tube. Thus, the corresponding pressure difference can be calculated. Based on this, by adjusting the air flow introduced into the air inlet tube 11, the water level difference between the left tube and the right tube of the U-shaped tube is generated, thereby calculating the corresponding pressure difference, and the gas permeation amount of the gas permeable membrane 3 corresponding to the pressure difference is detected by the flow meter 6 of the air outlet tube 5.

[0048] In addition, when the water pressure resistance of the breathable film 3 needs to be tested, the second control valve 15 is closed, and the first control valve 7 on the air outlet pipe 5 is closed so that the air outlet pipe 5 cannot output air any more, then an appropriate amount of water is added into the film fixing bottle 2, and the specific amount of water is that the water level can completely cover the breathable film 3 attached to the film fixing bottle 2, in this case, the air pump 12 continuously inputs air flow with a certain air pressure range into the air inlet pipe 11, and a certain water pressure is formed in the film fixing bottle 2, and the attachment state of the breathable film 3 attached to the film fixing bottle 2 is observed from the outside of the washing bottle 1, when the breathable film 3 is not damaged or does not leak water for a period of time (the breathable film 3 will be broken after a period of time of air input, or the water in the film fixing bottle 2 will flow to the washing bottle 1 through the breathable film 3), it indicates that the product meets the IPX level waterproof, so that the water pressure resistance of the breathable film 3 can be tested by the film fixing bottle 2 cooperating with the air inlet pipe 11 and the air pump 12.
