Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tank manufacturing, and in particular to a tank airtightness testing device. Background Technology
[0002] Common tank inspection methods typically involve using a water tank and an inflation device. The inflation device is connected to the tank, and air is injected into the tank to a preset pressure. The tank is then immersed in the water tank, and the presence of air bubbles on the surface is observed. If no air bubbles are present, the tank is considered airtight; if air bubbles are present, the leak point is recorded and analyzed.
[0003] In actual testing, tanks typically have multiple vents. Operators need to seal each vent individually with sealing components, leaving only one vent for connection to the inflation equipment. To facilitate efficient storage and retrieval of the sealing components, they are usually stored in a dedicated storage box near the water tank. However, due to the high humidity around the water tank, and in pursuit of efficiency, operators often remove the sealing components immediately after immersing the tank in the water to test its airtightness, carelessly discarding them into the storage box. This easily leads to the sealing components becoming damp and rusting, negatively impacting subsequent tank testing. Utility Model Content
[0004] To reduce the risk of sealing components becoming damp and rusting due to prolonged exposure to humid environments, this application provides a tank airtightness testing device.
[0005] The tank airtightness testing device provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A tank airtightness testing device includes a water tank and an air filling device; characterized in that it further includes a storage box, which is placed close to the right side of the water tank, and the storage box has a cavity, in which a filter screen is fixedly installed, and the upper end of the filter screen is used to place a sealing component; a plurality of fans are also provided at the upper end of the cavity, and the plurality of fans are arranged facing into the cavity.
[0007] With the above technical solution, the operator puts the wet sealing component into the cavity, and then the fan at the top blows it dry quickly, thereby reducing the sealing component from being in a damp state for a long time and thus reducing the possibility of the sealing component getting damp and rusting.
[0008] Preferably, a placement plate is slidably connected to the top surface of the pool, and sliding grooves are respectively opened on both sides of the top surface of the pool. A slider is fixed to the bottom surface of the placement plate and slidably connected in the sliding groove.
[0009] With the above technical solution, the operator needs a workbench to place the tank to facilitate the installation and removal of the sealing components. Therefore, a sliding placement plate was designed. When it is necessary to install or remove the sealing components from the tank, the placement plate can be slid in front of the operator; when it is necessary to test the airtightness, the placement plate can be slid away to avoid affecting the airtightness test.
[0010] Preferably, a first gear is rotatably connected to the slide groove on the right side of the pool, and a rack structure that meshes with the first gear is provided on the slider on the right side of the placement plate; a second gear is rotatably connected to the right side wall of the pool, and the second gear and the first gear are connected by a transmission rod that passes through the right side wall; a third gear is also rotatably connected to the right side wall of the pool, and the third gear meshes with the second gear; a flip cover is hinged to the top surface of the storage box by a hinge rod, and the third gear is connected to the hinge rod; a sealing strip is provided on the side of the flip cover facing the storage box; and the diameter of the third gear is smaller than that of the second gear.
[0011] With the above technical solution, when the operator moves the placement plate toward themselves, the rack and pinion structure of the slider drives the meshing first gear to rotate, and drives the second gear to rotate through the transmission rod, which in turn drives the third gear meshing with the second gear to rotate, and finally drives the hinge rod to make the flip cover flip up to open the storage box; conversely, it will automatically drive the flip cover to close down to close the storage box.
[0012] Preferably, a spring is provided at the rear end of the placement plate, and the other end of the spring is fixed to the rear wall of the pool. The spring is always kept in a compressed state. Several rubber elastic blocks are also fixed to the rear side of the placement plate, and the rubber elastic blocks are used to abut against the rear wall of the pool.
[0013] With the above technical solution, when the operator releases the placement plate, the spring will drive the placement plate to move away from the operator, thereby automatically resetting it; at the same time, the setting of the rubber elastic block reduces the impact force of the placement plate hitting the back wall of the pool.
[0014] Preferably, a handle is fixed to the front end of the placement plate, and an elastic strip is fixed to the middle section of the handle; a hook is provided at the front wall of the pool, and the hook is used for attaching the elastic strip.
[0015] With the above technical solution, when the operator pulls the placement plate in front of him, he can hook the elastic strip onto the hook, so that the placement plate can be kept in a stable state when the operator installs and removes the sealing component.
[0016] Preferably, a water tank is slidably installed inside the cavity of the storage box and is located below the filter screen.
[0017] With the above technical solution, when the sealing component is placed in the storage box, the flowing water will fall into the water tank below through the filter screen; thus avoiding the random dripping and accumulation of water, and also facilitating the unified treatment or discharge of the collected water in the future.
[0018] Preferably, a conveyor belt is fitted to the left side of the pool, and a partition is provided at the rear end of the conveyor belt, with the length direction of the partition perpendicular to the transport direction of the conveyor belt.
[0019] Through the above technical solution, the conveyor belt ensures that the tank can be automatically delivered to the operator for easy handling, thus ensuring the smoothness of the workflow.
[0020] The main technical effects of this utility model are reflected in the following aspects:
[0021] 1. This utility model reduces the likelihood of the sealing component being exposed to moisture for extended periods by setting up a special storage box and installing a fan inside the box, thereby reducing the possibility of the sealing component becoming damp and rusting;
[0022] 2. This utility model provides a working platform for operators to install and remove sealing components by sliding a placement plate on the water tank;
[0023] 3. This utility model links the movement of the placement plate with the opening and closing of the storage box, so that the storage box can be automatically opened when the operator installs and removes the sealing parts, making it convenient for the operator to take out and return the sealing parts; when not in use, the storage box can be automatically closed to prevent moisture from entering.

[0028] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-3The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described in detail to make the technical solution of this utility model easier to understand and master.
[0029] This application discloses a tank airtightness testing device:
[0030] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 A tank airtightness testing device includes a water tank 1 and an inflation device. It also includes a storage box 2, which is placed against the right side of the water tank 1. The storage box 2 has a cavity 21 inside, and a filter screen 22 is fixedly installed inside the cavity 21. A sealing component is placed on the upper part of the filter screen 22. A fan 23 is also installed at the upper end of the cavity 21, facing inwards. The operator places the wet sealing component into the cavity 21, and the fan 23 quickly dries it, reducing the sealing component's exposure to prolonged moisture and thus reducing the risk of rust. A heating wire can be installed at the air outlet of the fan 23 to increase the air temperature and accelerate the drying rate. A delay switch can be installed at the fan 23 to control its shutdown, allowing it to continue operating for a preset delay after the operator turns it off. This achieves better drying results and reduces the risk of rust from prolonged exposure to moisture.
[0031] Reference Figure 1 A placement plate 3 is slidably connected to the top surface of the water tank 1. Sliding grooves 12 are respectively opened on both sides of the top surface of the water tank 1. A slider 31 is fixed to the bottom surface of the placement plate 3 and slidably connected within the sliding grooves 12. When the operator is working, a workbench is needed to place the tank for easy installation and removal of the sealing components. Therefore, the sliding placement plate 3 is designed. When it is necessary to install or remove the sealing components from the tank, the placement plate 3 can be slid in front of the operator; when it is necessary to test the airtightness, the placement plate 3 can be slid away to avoid affecting the airtightness test. A paint layer can be applied to the inside of the sliding grooves 12 to achieve a waterproof and moisture-proof effect.
[0032] Reference Figure 1-2A first gear 4 is rotatably connected to the slide groove 12 on the right side of the pool 1. A rack structure 32 meshing with the first gear 4 is provided on the slider 31 on the right side of the placement plate 3. A second gear 5 is rotatably connected to the right side wall of the pool 1. The second gear 5 and the first gear 4 are connected by a transmission rod 6 that passes through the right side wall. A third gear 7 is also rotatably connected to the right side wall of the pool 1. The third gear 7 meshes with the second gear 5. A flip cover 9 is hinged to the top surface of the storage box 2 by a hinge rod 8. The third gear 7 is connected to the hinge rod 8. A sealing strip 91 is provided on the side of the flip cover 9 facing the storage box 2. The diameter of the third gear 7 is smaller than that of the second gear 5. When the operator moves the placement plate 3 towards themselves, the rack structure 32 of the slider 31 drives the meshing first gear 4 to rotate, and drives the second gear 5 to rotate through the transmission rod 6. This drives the third gear 7, which meshes with the second gear 5, to rotate, and finally drives the hinge rod 8, causing the flip cover 9 to flip up and open the storage box 2. Conversely, the flip cover 9 will automatically close downwards, thus shutting down the storage box 2. By linking the movement of the placement plate 3 with the opening and closing of the storage box 2, the storage box 2 can be automatically opened when the operator installs or removes the sealing components, making it convenient for the operator to retrieve and return the sealing components; when not in use, the storage box 2 can be automatically closed to prevent moisture intrusion.
[0033] Reference Figure 1 A spring 33 is installed at the rear end of the placement plate 3, and the other end of the spring 33 is fixed to the rear wall of the water tank 1. The spring 33 is always kept in a compressed state. Two rubber elastic blocks 34 are also fixed to the rear side of the placement plate 3, which are used to abut against the rear wall of the water tank 1. When the operator releases the placement plate 3, the spring 33 will drive the placement plate 3 to move away from the operator, thereby automatically resetting it; at the same time, the rubber elastic blocks 34 reduce the impact force of the placement plate 3 hitting the rear wall of the water tank 1. A handle 35 is fixed to the front end of the placement plate 3, and an elastic strip 351 is fixed to the middle section of the handle 35. A hook 11 is provided at the front wall of the water tank 1, which is used for hooking the elastic strip 351. When the operator pulls the placement plate 3 in front of him, he can hook the elastic strip 351 onto the hook 11, so that the placement plate 3 can be kept in a stable state when the operator installs and removes the sealing parts. In the workflow, the operator first pulls the placement plate 3 in front of them and hooks the elastic strip 351 of the handle 35 onto the hook 11. Then, the tank is placed on the placement plate 3 to install the sealing component. After installation, the elastic strip 351 is removed from the hook 11, and the spring 33 causes the placement plate 3 to automatically reset. The operator then begins to test the airtightness of the tank. The spring 33 is designed to reduce the operator's steps, thereby increasing work efficiency.
[0034] Reference Figure 2-3A water tank 24 is slidably installed inside the cavity 21 of the storage box 2, and is located below the filter screen 22. When the sealing component is placed into the storage box 2, the flowing water will fall into the water tank 24 below through the filter screen 22; thus avoiding random dripping and accumulation of water, and also facilitating the subsequent unified treatment or discharge of the collected water.
[0035] Reference Figure 1 A conveyor belt 10 is fitted to the left side of the water tank 1. A partition 101 is installed at the rear end of the conveyor belt 10, with its length perpendicular to the transport direction of the conveyor belt 10. The transport direction of the conveyor belt 10 is perpendicular to the left-right direction. The installation of the conveyor belt 10 ensures that the tank can be automatically transported to the operator's reach for easy access, thus ensuring a smooth workflow.

All technical solutions formed by equivalent substitution or equivalent transformation fall within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.
