[0035] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3This utility model discloses a packaging bag sealing performance tester, comprising a vacuum chamber 100, a vacuum machine 200, and a vibration assembly 300. The vacuum chamber 100 includes a chamber body 110 and a cover plate 120. The chamber body 110 has a receiving cavity 111, the upper end of which is open. The cover plate 120 is openable and covers the open end of the receiving cavity 111. The upper end of the receiving cavity 111 is stepped, and a sealing element is provided at the step. When the cover plate is connected to the chamber body, the sealing element is squeezed, and the cover plate and the chamber body are snap-fitted together, making disassembly and assembly convenient. A pressure plate 130 is provided on the cover plate 120, extending into the receiving cavity 111. An air extraction port 121 communicating with the receiving cavity 111 is provided on the cover plate 120. The chamber body 110 is transparent. Vacuum machine 200 has a vacuum interface, which is connected to vacuum interface 121 via vacuum pipe 210. Vacuum machine 200 is used to evacuate vacuum container 100. Vibration assembly 300 is movably connected to cover plate 120. One end of vibration assembly 300 extends into receiving cavity 111. Vibration assembly 300 is used to shake the packaging bag, thereby shaking off air bubbles attached to the surface of the packaging bag.
[0036] During testing, water is poured into the barrel 110, a packaging bag is placed inside, the cover plate 120 is closed, and the pressure plate 130 presses the packaging bag into the water. The vibrating component 300 shakes the packaging bag, causing air bubbles attached to it to dissipate. The vacuum machine 200 creates a vacuum in the vacuum barrel 100, and the leakage of the packaging bag is observed through the transparent barrel 110. The vibrating component 300 effectively removes air bubbles from the surface of the packaging bag, resulting in good testing results.
[0037] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The vibratory assembly 300 includes a vibratory element 310, a connecting rod 320, and a handle 330. The vibratory element 310 and the handle 330 are respectively connected to both ends of the connecting rod 320. A first through hole 122 is provided on the cover plate 120, and a second through hole 131 is provided on the pressure plate 130. The connecting rod 320 passes through the first through hole 122 and the second through hole 131. The vibratory element 310 is located below the pressure plate 130. The handle 330 drives the vibratory element 310 to move via the connecting rod 320, thereby causing the packaging bag to shake. When the packaging bag is pressed into the water, some air bubbles may adhere to its surface. The vibratory assembly 300 can cause the packaging bag to shake, allowing the air bubbles attached to the packaging bag to be expelled, resulting in good testing results.
[0038] The handle 330 can also serve as a handle for the cover plate 120. By holding the handle 330, the cover plate 120, the pressure plate 130 and the vibrating assembly can be installed on the barrel body 110.
[0039] In some embodiments, see Figure 2A sealing groove is provided in the first through hole 122, and a sealing ring 123 is provided in the sealing groove. The sealing ring 123 is sleeved on the connecting rod 320. There are two sealing grooves and two sealing rings 123. The sealing rings 123 are connected to the connecting rod 320 in a sealing manner to ensure the airtightness of the accommodating cavity 111 and facilitate the vacuum machine 200 to evacuate the vacuum tank 100.
[0040] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The handle 330 is spaced apart from the cover plate 120, and the connecting rod 320 slides through the first through hole 122 and the second through hole 131. When the handle 330 is pressed, it causes the connecting rod 320 and the vibrator 310 to descend, and the vibrator 310 pushes the packaging bag down, making operation convenient.
[0041] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 A spring 340 is provided between the handle 330 and the cover plate 120. When the handle 330 is pressed, the handle 330 drives the connecting rod 320 and the vibrating element 310 to descend. When the handle 330 is released, the spring 340 can drive the handle 330 to return to its original position. The operation is convenient and the handle 330 can be pressed repeatedly.
[0042] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The vibrating element 310 is arranged in a disc shape and has multiple third through holes 311. The disc shape of the vibrating element 310 facilitates full contact between the vibrating element 310 and the packaging bag. The third through holes 311 on the vibrating element 310 facilitate water flow during the rising and falling process and prevent the accumulation of air bubbles.
[0043] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The vibratory element 310 is inclined to the axial direction of the connecting rod 320. The handle 330 drives the vibratory element 310 to rotate via the connecting rod 320, thereby shaking the packaging bag. The vibratory element 310 can be set at an inclination, with the vibratory element 310 abutting against the packaging bag below the water surface. The handle 330 drives the vibratory element 310 to rotate, which pushes the packaging bag to rotate, shaking off air bubbles attached to the packaging bag and ensuring the test effect.
[0044] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3The pressure plate 130 is connected to the bottom of the cover plate 120 via the pressure rod 132. The pressure plate 130 is provided with multiple fourth through holes 133. The pressure plate 130 facilitates pressing the packaging bag into the water, and the fourth through holes 133 on the pressure plate 130 facilitate water flow and prevent air bubbles from adhering to the surface of the pressure plate 130.
[0045] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 The vacuum pump 200 is equipped with a pressure regulating valve and a speed regulating valve. The pressure regulating valve is used to adjust the inlet pressure, and the speed regulating valve is used to adjust the vacuuming rate. The vacuum pump 200 also features a display screen 220 and control buttons 230. The vacuum pump 200 has an intelligent embedded operating system, a user-friendly interface design, and a 5-inch color LCD screen 220 that provides high-definition display. It is also equipped with a mini printer for printing experimental data at any time. A standard RS232 data communication interface is used for convenient data export and external connections. Multiple test modes can be configured to test the performance of various sealing products.
[0046] Control button 230 includes a backflush button, which is used to open the pressure relief valve. When the vacuum pressure is relatively high during the test, the vacuum pressure is not completely released within the built-in pressure relief time of the program. At this time, as long as the backflush button is pressed, the system will open the pressure relief valve to release pressure for 5 seconds and then automatically close it to release the pressure in the system.
[0047] The working principle of the packaging bag sealing performance tester in this application embodiment is as follows:
[0048] Connect the instrument tubing, add approximately three-quarters of the volume of purified water into the vacuum chamber 100, place the test sample into the vacuum chamber 100, and then add a small amount of water to the sealing part of the vacuum chamber 100 to keep the entire sealing part in a water-sealed state, making it easier for the vacuum chamber 100 to achieve a sealing effect. Then place the sample into the vacuum chamber 100, close the cover plate 120, and press the test sample below the water surface with the pressure plate 130.
[0049] Pressing the handle 330 causes the vibrator 310 to descend via the connecting rod 320. The vibrator 310 then pushes the test sample downwards. Releasing the handle 330 causes the spring 340 to push the handle 330 upwards, and the test sample pushes the vibrator 310 upwards. During the descent and ascent of the test sample, air bubbles adhering to the surface of the test sample can be shaken off.
[0050] Power on the instrument, select single mode, set the pressure, holding time and other parameters, click test to start the test, start vacuuming, after the set pressure is reached, the timer starts timing, observe whether the packaged sample in the vacuum barrel 100 has bubbles coming out, to determine its sealing performance, the test ends after the set holding time is reached, and you can enter whether the test result is qualified.
