AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies struggle to accurately detect minute leaks in vacuum pumps, especially when the leak is slow, as air bubbles in the water are difficult to detect, leading to inaccurate detection.
A vacuum pump air tightness testing device was designed. An airbag and a rotating shaft were set in a water tank. The airbag was used to expand and fix the pump body. The rotating shaft drove the fixed tube to rotate and flipped the cover plate to seal the water tank. The movement of the slider in the tube was observed to confirm whether the pump body was leaking air. The water pressure difference was used to push the slider to move.
It enables airtightness testing of vacuum pump bodies, is easy to operate, and can accurately determine whether the pump body is leaking, thus improving the accuracy of the test.

Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of vacuum pump production equipment, and more particularly to a vacuum pump airtightness testing device. Background Technology
[0002] A vacuum pump is a device or equipment that uses mechanical, physical, chemical, or physicochemical methods to evacuate a container and create a vacuum. The airtightness of a vacuum pump directly affects its ultimate vacuum; therefore, the airtightness of a vacuum pump needs to be checked. Patent application number CN202310457541.6 discloses a vacuum pump airtightness testing device, including a testing chamber body. A testing water chamber containing water is located at the bottom of the testing chamber body. A drying mechanism with a drying cavity is arranged above the testing water chamber. The testing chamber body also has an observation window adapted to the position of the testing water chamber. A support turntable is located on one side of the testing chamber body. The side of the support turntable close to the testing chamber body is secured to the vacuum pump under test by a clamping mechanism. The support turntable is connected to a drive motor, which drives the support turntable to rotate, thereby causing the vacuum pump under test to enter the water in the testing water chamber or the drying cavity of the drying mechanism. The presence of air bubbles in the water in the testing water chamber is observed through the observation window to determine whether the airtightness of the vacuum pump under test is problematic. However, because water can dissolve a certain amount of air, when the vacuum pump leaks slowly, the air bubbles in the water are not easily detected, making it impossible to accurately detect whether the vacuum pump has a leakage problem.
[0003] This invention was proposed in response to the shortcomings of existing technologies. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a vacuum pump airtightness testing device.
[0005] This invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0006] This invention discloses a vacuum pump airtightness testing device, comprising a water tank, a top plate fixed on the water tank, a support shaft fixed on the top plate, a cover plate above the top plate, a support tube fixed on the cover plate, the support shaft passing through the support tube and rotatably connected to the support tube, a support ring for use with the cover plate fixed on the water tank, an exhaust pipe with a valve fixed on the cover plate, a rotating shaft inside the water tank, the rotating shaft being fixed to the output end of a flip motor, a connecting plate fixed on the rotating shaft, a fixing pipe fixed at the end of the connecting plate, an air bladder fixed inside the fixing pipe, the air bladder being connected to an air pump through an air inlet pipe, an inflation pipe fixed on the air pump, an overflow pipe with a valve fixed on the water tank, an observation pipe fixed on the overflow pipe, a valve fixed on the observation pipe, and a slider inside the observation pipe. A certain amount of water is injected into the water tank. The vacuum pump body is placed inside the fixed tube. Gas is filled into the air bladder using an air pump. After the air bladder inflates, the pump body is fixed inside the fixed tube. After the pump body is fixed, the inflation pipe is connected to the air inlet of the pump body. The flip motor is started, driving the rotating shaft to rotate. The fixed tube rotates around the rotating shaft. After the fixed tube enters the water in the water tank, the cover plate is flipped over, covering the support ring to seal the water tank. The exhaust pipe is then opened, and water is discharged into the water tank through the water inlet pipe. After the water tank is full of water, the water inlet pipe and the exhaust pipe are closed. Connect the pipe and close the valve on the overflow pipe, then open the valve on the observation pipe. Inflate the pump body with air through the air inlet pipe and observe whether the colored slider inside the observation pipe moves. When the pump body leaks air, the gas enters the sealed water tank, increasing the pressure inside the tank. The pressure on both sides of the slider becomes unequal, and the water in the tank enters the observation pipe, pushing the slider to move. By observing the movement of the slider through the observation pipe, you can confirm whether the pump body is leaking air. This device can perform airtightness testing on the pump body of a vacuum pump and confirm whether the vacuum pump is leaking air by observing whether the slider moves. It is very convenient to operate.
[0007] Preferably, a sealing ring is also fixed on the cover plate.
[0008] Preferably, multiple positioning rods are fixed on the top plate, and positioning shafts are fixed on the cover plate at positions corresponding to the positioning rods. Positioning tubes are provided on the positioning shafts, and cylinders that are rotatably connected to the positioning rods are provided on the positioning rods. The piston rod ends of the cylinders are fixed to the corresponding positioning tubes.
[0009] Preferably, the observation tube is made of glass.
[0010] Preferably, a water inlet pipe is also fixed on the water tank.
[0011] Compared with existing technologies, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0012] This device can perform airtightness tests on the pump body of a vacuum pump and confirm whether the vacuum pump is leaking by observing whether the slider moves, making it very convenient to operate. Attached Figure Description

[0018] The embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0019] Example 1:
[0020] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, this embodiment discloses a vacuum pump airtightness testing device, including a water tank 1, a top plate 2 fixed on the water tank 1, a support shaft 3 fixed on the top plate 2, a cover plate 4 above the top plate 2, a support tube 5 fixed on the cover plate 4, the support shaft 3 passing through the support tube 5 and rotatably connected to the support tube 5, a support ring 11 for use with the cover plate 4 fixed on the water tank 1, an exhaust pipe 10 with a valve fixed on the cover plate 4, a rotating shaft 13 inside the water tank 1, the rotating shaft 13 being fixed to the output end of a flip motor 14, a connecting plate 18 fixed on the rotating shaft 13, a fixing pipe 15 fixed at the end of the connecting plate 18, an airbag 17 fixed inside the fixing pipe 15, the airbag 17 being connected to an air pump through an air inlet pipe 16, an inflation pipe 20 fixed on the air pump, an overflow pipe 22 with a valve fixed on the water tank 1, an observation pipe 23 fixed on the overflow pipe 22, a valve fixed on the observation pipe 23, and a slider 24 inside the observation pipe 23. A certain amount of water is injected into the water tank 1. The pump body 19 of the vacuum pump is placed inside the fixed tube 15. Gas is filled into the air bag 17 by the air pump. After the air bag 17 expands, it will fix the pump body 19 into the fixed tube 15. After the pump body 19 is fixed, the inflation pipe 20 is connected to the air inlet of the pump body 19. The flip motor 14 is started, and the flip motor 14 drives the rotating shaft 13 to rotate. The fixed tube 15 rotates around the rotating shaft 13. After the fixed tube 15 enters the water in the water tank 1, the cover plate 4 is flipped to cover the support ring 11 and seal the water tank 1. The exhaust pipe 10 is opened, and water is discharged into the water tank 1 through the water inlet pipe 21. After the water tank 1 is full of water, the water inlet pipe is closed. Connect the exhaust pipe 10 and the overflow pipe 22, and open the valve on the observation pipe 23. Inflate the pump body 19 through the air inlet pipe 20. Observe whether the colored slider 24 in the observation pipe 23 is sliding. When the pump body 19 leaks air, the gas enters the sealed water tank 1, the pressure in the water tank 1 increases, and the pressure on both sides of the slider 24 is not equal. The water in the water tank 1 enters the observation pipe 23 and pushes the slider 24 to move. The movement of the slider 24 is confirmed by the observation pipe 23, thereby confirming whether the pump body 19 is leaking air. This device can perform airtightness testing on the pump body 19 of the vacuum pump and confirm whether the vacuum pump is leaking air by observing whether the slider 24 is moving. It is very convenient to operate.
