Therefore, this utility model provides an axial flow pump air tightness testing device. Utility Model Content

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an axial flow pump overall airtightness testing device, comprising a base, a support frame fixedly mounted on the top of the base, and an axial flow pump body mounted above the support frame. A testing mechanism is provided on the top of the base, and a fixing mechanism is provided on the top of the base for quick installation and disassembly of the axial flow pump body during testing. The fixing mechanism includes:

[0007] The drive unit is located above the base and is used to provide driving power;

[0008] The clamping unit, located above the base, includes a mounting plate and a track seat.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0024] An axial flow pump airtightness testing device includes a base 1, a support frame 4 fixedly mounted on the top of the base 1, and an axial flow pump body 5 mounted above the support frame 4. A testing mechanism 3 is provided on the top of the base 1, and a fixing mechanism 2 is provided on the top of the base 1 for quick installation and disassembly of the axial flow pump body 5 during testing. The fixing mechanism 2 includes:

[0025] The drive unit 21 is disposed above the base 1 and is used to provide driving power;

[0026] The clamping unit 22 is located above the base 1 and includes a mounting plate 221 and a track seat 228. Four linkage blocks 222 are fixedly installed on one side of the mounting plate 221, and a moving rod 225 is slidably installed on the surface of the linkage block 222. A connecting column 226 is fixedly installed on one side of the moving rod 225. A cross slide groove 229 is opened inside the track seat 228, and a cross slider 2210 is slidably installed inside the cross slide groove 229. A clamping block 2211 is fixedly installed on one side of the cross slider 2210, and the side of the cross slider 2210 away from the clamping block 2211 is fixedly connected to the connecting column 226.

[0027] In this embodiment, the clamping unit 22 further includes a linkage column 224 fixedly installed inside one end of the moving rod 225. The linkage block 222 has a linkage groove 223 inside, and the linkage column 224 slides inside the linkage groove 223. A reinforcing rib 227 is fixedly installed between the moving rod 225 and the connecting column 226.

[0028] When motor 213 runs, it drives lead screw 214 to rotate. Lead screw 214 drives mounting plate 221 to move towards motor 213. At this time, mounting plate 221 drives four linkage blocks 222 to move synchronously. When linkage blocks 222 move, four linkage columns 224 slide inside four linkage slots 223. The four linkage columns 224 move synchronously away from the center. Linkage columns 224 drive moving rod 225 to move synchronously. Moving rod 225 drives connecting column 226 to move. Connecting column 226 drives cross slider 2210 and clamping block 2211 to move synchronously. Clamping block 2211 clamps and fixes the port of axial flow pump body 5, thereby realizing the quick installation and disassembly of axial flow pump body 5, thus improving work efficiency.

[0029] A reinforcing rib 227 is fixedly installed between the movable rod 225 and the connecting column 226. The reinforcing rib 227 supports the connecting column 226 and prevents the connecting column 226 from deforming. The movable rod 225 passes through the mounting cylinder 212 and slides within the wall of the mounting cylinder 212.

[0030] In this embodiment, the drive unit 21 includes a fixed column 211 fixedly installed on the top of the base 1. A mounting cylinder 212 is fixedly installed on the top of the fixed column 211. A lead screw 214 is rotatably installed inside the mounting cylinder 212. A motor 213 is fixedly installed at one end of the mounting cylinder 212. The motor 213 is movably connected to the mounting cylinder 212. The drive unit 21 also includes a first sealing gasket 215 and a plug 216 fixedly installed at the end away from the motor 213. One end of the plug 216 passes through the first sealing gasket 215.

[0031] The clamping ends of the four clamping blocks 2211 are inclined surfaces, so that when the four clamping blocks 2211 clamp the port of the axial flow pump body 5, the inclined surfaces of the clamping blocks 2211 contact the edge of the port of the axial flow pump body 5, causing the port of the axial flow pump body 5 to squeeze the first sealing gasket 215, thereby improving the sealing performance of the port of the axial flow pump body 5.

[0032] In this embodiment, the detection mechanism 3 includes a mounting bracket 31 fixedly installed on the top of the base 1. A cylinder 32 is fixedly installed on the top of the horizontal plate of the mounting bracket 31. The output rod of the cylinder 32 passes through the horizontal plate of the mounting bracket 31 and is fixedly installed on a connecting seat 33. Four connecting rods 34 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the connecting seat 33. A pressure plate 35 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the connecting rods 34. A second sealing gasket 36 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the pressure plate 35. The detection mechanism 3 also includes an air inlet pipe 37 fixedly installed through the pressure plate 35 and the second sealing gasket 36. An air supply pipe 38 is fixedly installed at the top of the air inlet pipe 37, and a pressure gauge 39 is fixedly installed on one side of the air inlet pipe 37.

[0033] The pressure gauge 39 is model YF-P301. When the cylinder 32 operates, the cylinder 32 drives the connecting seat 33 and the connecting rod 34 to move down synchronously. The connecting rod 34 drives the pressure plate 35 and the second sealing gasket 36 to move down synchronously. The second sealing gasket 36 squeezes the port above the axial flow pump body 5 to seal the port. Then the gas cylinder connected to the gas supply pipe 38 is opened, and the axial flow pump body 5 is filled with air through the gas supply pipe 38 and the air inlet pipe 37. By observing the pressure value of the pressure gauge 39, if the pressure value does not change, the air tightness is good; if the pressure value changes, the air tightness is poor.

[0034] Furthermore, any content not described in detail in this specification is existing technology known to those skilled in the art.

[0035] During operation, the axial flow pump body 5 is first placed on the support frame 4 and aligned. Two insertion pins 216 are inserted into the holes at the edge of the port of the axial flow pump body 5. Then, the motor 213 runs, driving the lead screw 214 to rotate. The lead screw 214 drives the mounting plate 221 to move towards the motor 213. At this time, the mounting plate 221 drives the four linkage blocks 222 to move synchronously. As the linkage blocks 222 move, the four linkage pins 224 slide inside the four linkage slots 223, moving synchronously away from the center. The linkage pins 224 drive the moving rod 225 to move synchronously, and the moving rod 225 drives the connecting pin 226 to move. 6 drives the cross slider 2210 and the clamping block 2211 to move synchronously. The clamping block 2211 clamps and fixes the port of the axial flow pump body 5. Then the cylinder 32 runs, and the cylinder 32 drives the connecting seat 33 and the connecting rod 34 to move down synchronously. The connecting rod 34 drives the pressure plate 35 and the second sealing gasket 36 to move down synchronously. The second sealing gasket 36 squeezes the port above the axial flow pump body 5 to seal the port. Then the gas cylinder connected to the gas supply pipe 38 is opened, and the axial flow pump body 5 is filled with air through the gas supply pipe 38 and the air inlet pipe 37. By observing the gas pressure value of the pressure gauge 39, the air tightness is good if the gas pressure value does not change, and the air tightness is poor if the gas pressure value changes.
