Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of filter testing, and in particular to a salt spray resistance test bench. Background Technology

[0002] An air filter is a device that uses porous filter materials to capture dust from a gas-solid two-phase flow and purify the gas.

[0003] Currently, air filters are being used in a wider range of environments, and some air filters are being used in harsher environments, especially in coastal areas or areas with high salt spray levels. Salt spray can enter mechanical and electrical equipment in the field under the influence of wind, causing corrosion to the machinery or electrical equipment. It can also adhere to the equipment inside the engine compartment and remain in a humid state for a long time, further aggravating the corrosive effect of humid air.

[0004] For air filters used in high salt spray environments, in order to test the air filter's salt spray resistance, it is necessary to simulate a high salt spray environment and test the air filter's salt spray resistance. Utility Model Content

[0005] To facilitate the testing of the salt spray resistance of air filters, this application provides a salt spray resistance test bench.

[0006] This application provides a salt spray resistance test bench, which adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A salt spray resistance test bench includes a support frame and a fan soundproof box, an air supply duct, an upstream chamber, and a downstream chamber that are sequentially connected on the support frame. A fan is installed inside the fan soundproof box. A butterfly valve is installed on the air supply duct. A spray device for spraying salt spray is installed inside the upstream chamber. An air distribution plate is installed at the connection between the air supply duct and the upstream chamber. The surface of the air distribution plate is provided with a plurality of air distribution holes at intervals. A support assembly is installed on the support frame between the upstream chamber and the downstream chamber. The support assembly is used to support the air filter.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the air filter is placed above the support assembly. The fan is started, and the fan soundproof box reduces the fan noise. The fan generates air, and the butterfly valve controls the airflow in the air supply duct, which facilitates the simulation of different wind environments. The air distribution hole divides the air delivered from the air supply duct, so that the air entering the upstream box is evenly blown onto the air filter to be tested. The spray device sprays salt spray to simulate a salt spray environment, which facilitates the testing of the air filter's salt spray resistance.

[0009] Optionally, the spraying device includes a nozzle, a connecting plate, a connecting block, and a connecting rod. The connecting rod is connected to the inner wall of the upstream tank. The connecting block is mounted on the connecting rod. The connecting plate is mounted on the connecting block. The nozzle is mounted on the connecting plate and faces the downstream tank. The nozzle is connected to a first liquid inlet pipe and a second liquid inlet pipe.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, salt spray liquid is delivered to the nozzle through the first and second inlet pipes, and the salt spray liquid is sprayed into the upstream box through the nozzle to simulate a salt spray environment.

[0011] Optionally, the support assembly includes four support cylinders, two support plates, two slide rails, two sliders, and a flow strip. The four support cylinders are installed on both sides below the support frame. The two support plates are connected at both ends to the piston rods of the two support cylinders on the same side. The two slide rails are installed above the two support plates and are parallel to each other. The two sliders correspond one-to-one with the two slide rails and are slidably connected to the slide rails. The flow strip is installed above the two sliders.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the height of the support plate is adjusted by the support cylinder, thereby facilitating the adjustment of the air filter height. The position of the air filter is also easily adjusted by the flow strip and the slider on the slide rail.

[0013] Optionally, both the bottom of the upstream tank and the bottom of the downstream tank are provided with water receiving grooves, and both water receiving grooves are connected to water outlet pipes.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the liquid sprayed and condensed in the upstream and downstream tanks is collected by the water receiving tank, and the liquid is output to the outside of the device through the water outlet pipe.

[0015] Optionally, a filter box is connected between the downstream housing and the fan soundproof box, and a protective filter is installed inside the filter box.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, after the tested air filter filters the salt mist, the air entering the downstream chamber still contains some salt mist. This salt mist is then filtered by the protective filter to protect the fan.

[0017] Optionally, a temperature and humidity sensor is installed inside the downstream chamber.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the temperature and humidity inside the downstream chamber can be monitored in real time using temperature and humidity sensors.

[0019] Optionally, a flow balance orifice plate is installed in the downstream housing, and a plurality of balance holes are equally spaced on the surface of the flow balance orifice plate.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the flow balance orifice plate diverts and balances the airflow passing through the test air filter, improving the working effect of the protective filter in the filter box and protecting the fan.

[0021] Optionally, a first pressure sensor and a second pressure sensor are installed in the downstream housing, located on both sides of the balancing flow orifice plate.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the first pressure sensor and the second pressure sensor monitor the air pressure on both sides of the balance flow orifice plate in the downstream box.

[0023] Optionally, sampling tubes are provided in both the upstream and downstream boxes.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, the environment inside the upstream and downstream boxes is monitored through sampling tubes, and the air before and after filtration by the tested air filter is sampled.

[0025] Optionally, the top of the air supply duct near the upstream housing is connected to a balance cylinder, and the top of the balance cylinder is provided with an openable balance cover.

[0026] By adopting the above technical solution, the pressure inside the device can be adjusted by opening the balance cover on the balance head, thus avoiding excessive air pressure inside the device from affecting the test.

[0027] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0028] 1. Place the air filter on top of the support assembly, start the fan, the fan soundproof box reduces fan noise, the fan generates air, the butterfly valve controls the air delivery force in the air supply duct, which is convenient for simulating different wind environments, the air distribution hole divides the air delivered from the air supply duct, so that the air entering the upstream box is evenly blown onto the air filter to be tested, and the spray device sprays salt spray to simulate the salt spray environment, which is convenient for testing the air filter's salt spray resistance.

[0029] 2. After the tested air filter filters the salt spray, the air entering the downstream chamber still contains some salt spray. This is then filtered by a protective filter to protect the fan. Attached Figure Description
