[0002] In the production process of new energy automobile battery water-cooled plate, 100% air-tightness detection is the key link to ensure product quality and safety. When detecting, the gas pipe joint of test equipment needs to be connected with the water nozzle of water-cooled plate quickly and reliably to form a seal, and then the inflation pressure test is carried out.

[0003] At present, the common sealing method generally has two kinds: 1. Using rigid sealing joint: using threaded connection or hard plastic / metal joint with O-ring for sealing; This method requires high consistency of water nozzle processing size and high repeatability of mechanical hand positioning when placing water-cooled plate to detection station. Once there is manufacturing tolerance in water nozzle length, or there is slight deviation in flatness and height position of water nozzle after mechanical hand placing, it is easy to cause sealing not to be strict, and leakage occurs. This leakage is not a product leakage itself, but a "misjudgment" caused by tooling sealing failure, which greatly affects detection efficiency and accuracy. 2. Manual sealing: tightened or pressed by operator; Although this can compensate for the deviation to some extent, it is low in efficiency, high in labor cost, and cannot be integrated into fully automatic production line. Inconsistent manual operation will also introduce new uncertainty.
