[0032] Figure 3 This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of the internal thread hole airtightness detection connector according to an embodiment of the present utility model. Detailed Implementation

[0033] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, further illustrating the present invention.

[0034] First, combine Figures 1-3 The present invention describes an internal thread hole airtightness testing connector according to an embodiment of the present invention, which is used to quickly connect the internal thread hole of a product whose airtightness is to be tested, and has a wide range of applications.

[0035] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the internal thread hole airtightness detection connector of this utility model embodiment includes: a cylinder 1; an internal expansion connection mechanism 2; a drive mechanism 3; and a connecting pipe 4.

[0036] Specifically, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, in this embodiment, the internal expansion connecting mechanism 2 is located at one end of the cylinder 1; the driving mechanism 3 is located at the other end of the cylinder 1 and is connected to the internal expansion connecting mechanism 2; the internal expansion connecting mechanism 2 is inserted into the internal threaded hole of the product, and the driving mechanism 3 drives the internal expansion connecting mechanism 2 to expand or contract to connect or release the product; the connecting pipe 4 is located on the surface of the cylinder 1 and is connected to the internal expansion connecting mechanism 2, and the connecting pipe 4 is connected to an external air source. The internal expansion structure controls radial deformation expansion through the driving mechanism 3, which can quickly complete the surface contact sealing connection with the internal threaded hole, achieve a fast and non-destructive connection, ensure the sealing performance of the connection with the internal threaded hole, significantly improve efficiency, and prevent the air source interface from causing wear on the internal thread of the product by directly connecting to the air source instead of the internal threaded hole, while ensuring the sealing performance of the connection. The overall structure is simple and compact, and easy to use.

[0037] Specifically, such as Figures 1-3As shown, in this embodiment, the internal expansion connection mechanism 2 includes an expansion sleeve and a pull core 22. The expansion sleeve is disposed at one end of the cylinder 1, with its bottom end extending out of the cylinder 1 for easy insertion into the internal threaded hole of the product. The top end of the expansion sleeve is disposed inside the cylinder 1, and the bottom end of the expansion sleeve has an inner conical surface 211 whose inner diameter gradually increases from the top end to the bottom end. The pull core 22 is inserted into the expansion sleeve, with its top end connected to the drive mechanism 3. The bottom end of the pull core 22 has an outer conical surface 221 whose outer diameter gradually increases from the top end to the bottom end, and the outer conical surface 221 cooperates with the inner conical surface 211. The drive mechanism 3 drives the pull core 22 to move within the expansion sleeve, causing the expansion sleeve to deform radially to connect or release the product. The outer conical surface 221 of the pull core 22 cooperates with the inner conical surface 211 of the expansion sleeve. The axial drive of the pull core 22 by the drive mechanism 3 is converted into radial deformation of the expansion sleeve, causing the expansion sleeve to engage in the internal threaded hole, realizing a quick and non-destructive connection between the cylinder 1 and the product, suitable for high-frequency testing scenarios.

[0038] Furthermore, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, in this embodiment, the outer surface of the expansion sleeve is provided with an external thread that engages with the internal threaded hole, and the thread engagement improves the connection effect and sealing performance.

[0039] Furthermore, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, in this embodiment, the expansion sleeve is formed by a number of expansion pieces 21. A ventilation gap 212 is provided between adjacent expansion pieces 21. When the pull core 22 is engaged in the expansion sleeve and the expansion sleeve is driven to expand radially, the ventilation gap 212 ensures that the gas output from the gas source can be smoothly delivered to the product.

[0040] Furthermore, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, in this embodiment, the inner expansion connection mechanism 2 further includes: a first sealing ring 23, which is disposed at one end of the cylinder 1 and sleeved on the expansion sleeve, and the first sealing ring 23 seals the cylinder 1 and the product.

[0041] Specifically, such as Figures 1-3As shown, in this embodiment, the driving mechanism 3 includes: a sealing plate 31, a second sealing ring 32, a pressing unit, and a return spring 33; the sealing plate 31 is disposed inside the cylinder 1 and fixed on the pull core 22; the second sealing ring 32 is sleeved on the sealing plate 31, and the second sealing ring 32 seals the cylinder 1 and the sealing plate 31; the pressing unit is connected to the top end of the pull core 22, and the pressing unit drives the pull core 22 to move toward the bottom end of the pull core 22, extending out of the expansion sleeve, and driving the expansion sleeve to contract radially; the return spring 33 is sleeved on the pull core 22, and the two ends of the return spring 33 are respectively connected to the pull core 22 and the inner wall of the cylinder 1, and the return spring 33 resets and drives the pull core 22 to move toward the top end of the pull core 22, engaging in the expansion sleeve, and driving the expansion sleeve to expand radially. The sealing plate 31 and the second sealing ring 32 ensure the sealing of the cylinder 1, so that the gas output from the gas source can be smoothly output from the expansion sleeve to the product. The pressing unit and the return spring 33 respectively realize the axial movement of the core 22 in opposite directions to realize the contraction and expansion of the expansion sleeve.

[0042] Furthermore, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, in this embodiment, the pressing unit includes: a first connecting rod 34, a second connecting rod 35, and a gripping rod 36; one end of the first connecting rod 34 is hinged to the other end of the cylinder 1; both ends of the second connecting rod 35 are obliquely hinged to the pull core 22 and the other end of the first connecting rod 34, respectively; the gripping rod 36 is obliquely fixed to the other end of the first connecting rod 34; in use, the user grips the gripping rod 36, causing the gripping rod 36 to move closer to the cylinder 1, causing the first connecting rod 34 to rotate, thereby causing the second connecting rod 35 and the pull core 22 to move towards the bottom end of the pull core 22. The first connecting rod 34, the second connecting rod 35, and the gripping rod 36 convert the manually input linear motion into the radial expansion of the expansion sleeve, making the drive quick and convenient, and the structure simple and reliable.

[0043] Furthermore, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, in this embodiment, the grip 36 and the first connecting rod 34 are integrally formed. The upper surface of the grip 36 is provided with a plurality of arc-shaped grooves 361 spaced along the axial direction to fit the fingertips of the human hand, improve grip comfort, and facilitate quick finger positioning.

[0044] Furthermore, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, in this embodiment, the pressing unit includes a pressing plate, which is fixed to the other end of the pull core 22. Pressing the pressing plate causes the pull core 22 to move toward the bottom end of the pull core 22.

[0045] Under normal conditions, due to the action of the return spring 33, the outer conical surface 221 of the pull core 22 engages with the inner conical surface 211 of the expansion sleeve, and the expansion sleeve is in a radially expanded state. When in use, hold the handle 36, and the pull core 22 is driven to move down through the first connecting rod 34 and the second connecting rod 35, compressing the return spring 33. The pull core 22 extends out of the expansion sleeve, and the expansion sleeve automatically retracts, which can be easily inserted into the internal threaded hole of the product. After insertion, until the first sealing ring 23 is in contact with the product, release the handle 36, and the return spring 33 automatically resets, driving the pull core 22 to move up and insert into the expansion sleeve, so that the expansion sleeve expands radially and engages in the internal threaded hole of the product, realizing the quick connection between the cylinder 1 and the product. The connecting pipe 4 is connected to the air source for airtightness testing.

[0046] Above, refer to Figures 1-3 This invention describes an internal thread hole airtightness testing connector according to an embodiment of the present invention, which can achieve a quick and non-destructive connection with the internal thread hole of a product, with good sealing performance, high efficiency, compact structure, and simple and convenient use.
