DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the present application more clear, the following will combine the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present application, not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of the present application described and shown in the drawings here can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0028] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present application provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed application, but merely represents selected embodiments of the application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of the present application.

[0029] Referring to Figures 1 to 2 As shown in the drawings, the present embodiment provides a gas tightness test device for a speed reducer, which comprises a cover 2 sealingly connected with the speed reducer 1. The cover 2 is sealingly connected with the casing of the speed reducer 1 in advance and is fixed with the casing by bolts. The cover 2 is provided with a detection hole 21 communicating with the inner cavity of the speed reducer 1.

[0030] As Figure 2 shown, it further comprises an inner tube 3, an outer tube 4, a sealing seat 5, a pressure detection piece 6 and a gas source 7. The lower end of the outer tube 4 extends into the detection hole 21. The inner tube 3 is coaxially and slidingly arranged through the outer tube 4. More specifically, one end of the outer tube 4 located in the detection hole 21 is hingedly connected with a plurality of lock heads 41. The plurality of lock heads 41 are arranged in an annular array about the outer tube 4. One end of the inner tube 3 located in the detection hole 21 is provided with a tapered head 31. The tapered head 31 is connected with the inner tube 3 at one end with a small diameter. The inner tube 3 is driven to move outside the detection hole 21 in the outer tube 4. Then, the tapered head 31 drives the plurality of lock heads 41 to expand outward, so that the plurality of lock heads 41 abut against the end of the detection hole 21. At this time, the outer tube 4 cannot be pulled out of the detection hole 21.

[0031] At the same time, as Figure 2 shown, the sealing seat 5 is sleeved on the outer tube 4 and located outside the detection hole 21. The sealing seat 5 is used to seal the gap between the outer tube 4 and the detection hole 21. By abutting the plurality of lock heads 41 against the end of the detection hole 21, the outer tube 4 and the inner tube 3 cannot be pulled out of the detection hole 21. In combination with the sealing seat 5 for further sealing, the sealing seat 5 further comprises a sealing gasket 51. The sealing gasket 51 is in the shape of a circular truncated cone. One end of the sealing gasket 51 with a small diameter extends into the detection hole 21. When the outer tube 4 is installed, it needs to be first moved into the detection hole 21 until the sealing gasket 51 on the sealing seat 5 abuts tightly against the detection hole 21. Then, the inner tube 3 is driven to move outward in the outer tube 4. Finally, the plurality of lock heads 41 abut against the detection hole 21 through the tapered head 31, so as to realize the fixed and sealing connection of the outer tube 4 and the inner tube 3 with the detection hole 21.

[0032] More specifically, as Figure 2 shown, it further comprises a rubber sealing ring 32. The part of the inner tube 3 located in the outer tube 4 is spaced apart from the plurality of rubber sealing rings 32. The plurality of rubber sealing rings 32 are mainly used to seal the gap between the inner tube 3 and the outer tube 4, so as to prevent gas leakage.

[0033] As Figure 2Also shown, further comprising a limiting seat 9 and a spring 91, both of which are sleeved on the inner tube 3, the limiting seat 9 is located on the side of the sealing seat 5 away from the lock head 41, and the two ends of the spring 91 abut against the limiting seat 9 and the sealing seat 5 respectively. In specific implementation, the sealing seat 5 is provided with a handle 52, and the limiting seat 9 is provided with a buckle ring 92. Before detection, first hold the handle 52, and then use the thumb to buckle the buckle ring 92, so that the inner tube 3 moves to the side of the lock head 41, and then the taper head 31 is separated from the plurality of lock heads 41, and then the diameter surrounded by the plurality of lock heads 41 is smaller than the inner diameter of the detection hole 21, so that the lock head 41 can smoothly pass through the detection hole 21. After the lock head 41 enters or passes through the detection hole 21, the thumb can release the buckle ring 92, and then the sealing gasket 51 on the sealing seat 5 is tightly butted against the end of the detection hole 21 by pressing the outer tube 4 through the handle 52, thereby sealing the gap between the outer tube 4 and the detection hole 21. At the same time, under the action of the spring 91, the inner tube 3 moves outward, drives the plurality of lock heads 41 to flip outward and abut against the inner end of the detection hole 21, and the sealing connection of the outer tube 4 and the inner tube 3 with the detection hole 21 is completed.

[0034] More specifically, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the inner tube 3 is connected with the air source 7 through the air pipe 8, the air source 7 is an air compressor, and the pressure detection piece 6 is arranged on the air pipe 8. After the outer tube 4 and the inner tube 3 are installed in place, a certain pressure of air can be pumped into the air source 7, which drives the inner tube 3 to continue to move outward under the action of air pressure, further abutting the taper head 31 and the plurality of lock heads 41. After the inflation is completed, the handle 52 can be released, and then observed for a period of time to observe whether there is air leakage through the pressure detection piece 6.

[0035] When the detection is completed, only the handle needs to be held, the buckle ring 92 is pressed down with the thumb, the inner tube 3 is driven to move inward of the detection hole 21, the taper head 31 is separated from the plurality of lock heads 41, and then the entire outer tube 4 and inner tube 3 are taken out of the detection hole 21 through the handle 52. The installation and disassembly of the entire device are very fast and convenient, greatly improving the work efficiency, and ensuring the sealing basis of the air tightness detection.

[0036] More specifically, as shown in Figure 2 , the limiting seat 9 is threadedly connected with the inner tube 3, so that the extension amount of the spring 91 can be adjusted, and the spring force of the spring 91 can be adjusted as needed. The spring force acts on the inner tube 3 and the outer tube 4 respectively, mainly abutting the taper head 31 and the lock head 41 tightly, and ensuring the stable connection of the whole with the detection hole 21.

[0037] As one of the embodiments, the pressure detecting member 6 is a gas tightness detector, which is communicated with the inner cavity of the speed reducer 1 through the air pipe 8 and the inner pipe 3, can actively pump gas into the inner cavity of the speed reducer 1 and monitor the change of the pressure, and then displays the pressure value on the display screen. After the compressed air is input, if the pressure value does not change, the gas tightness is good, otherwise, the gas tightness is problematic.

[0038] As another embodiment, the pressure detecting member 6 is a pressure control valve, which can control the gas pumped into the inner cavity of the speed reducer, stop when the set pressure is reached, and monitor the change of the internal pressure to determine whether the gas tightness of the speed reducer 1 is qualified.

[0039] In summary, the air pressure in the inner cavity of the speed reducer 1 can be accurately controlled within a predetermined pressure range, and there is no overpressure or underpressure to cause inaccurate detection. The overall detection effect after the test is completed reaches the expectation and meets the actual needs.

[0040] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present application and is not used to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, the present application can have various changes and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
