Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of airtightness testing technology for automotive lamp covers, specifically a fixture for testing the airtightness of automotive lamps. Background Technology
[0002] Vehicle lights are tools for illuminating roads at night and for issuing various driving signals. Vehicle lights are generally divided into headlights, taillights, and turn signals. The airtightness of a vehicle light refers to its ability to prevent water, dust, and other impurities from entering its interior when sealed. This ability is mainly assessed through the IP rating system, which typically includes two numbers: the first indicates the dustproof rating, and the second indicates the waterproof rating. For example, IP67 indicates a dustproof rating of 6 and a waterproof rating of 7.1. The airtightness of a vehicle light has a significant impact on its performance and lifespan. Poor airtightness can lead to the following problems: 1) Fogging: When the light is on, the temperature around the bulb rises rapidly, causing water vapor inside the light to condense on the lens, affecting illumination and driving safety; 2) Water accumulation: Poorly sealed lights can allow water to enter. When the bulb temperature rises, the evaporation of water can cause the bulb to explode; 3) Pressure changes: During driving, a pressure difference occurs inside and outside the light. Poorly sealed lights can draw in water, dust, etc., affecting lighting performance and lifespan.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a fixture for testing the air tightness of vehicle lights that can meet the requirements of assembly line equipment operation and efficiently test air tightness. Utility Model Content
