[0034] The working principle of the utility model is: a proper amount of water is poured into the water tank 102, and the lifting plate 5 is placed above the liquid level due to the existence of the spring 4, so as to facilitate the up-down pump shell body 6, the pump shell body 6 is installed on the lifting plate 5 through the boss 501 and the positioning bolt 502, and gas is injected into the inside of the butt joint cylinder 201 through the hose, at this time, the lifting plate 5 is placed above, the rotating shaft 8 is also placed above the water tank 102, and the swing rod 10 can be arbitrarily rotated; during detection, the butt joint cylinder 201 is controlled to move down, so that the first sealing plug 202 at the bottom blocks and seals the water inlet of the pump shell body 6, and continuous downward movement can drive the lifting plate 5 to move down and immerse in water; when the lifting plate 5 moves down, the height of the rotating shaft 8 also moves down, at this time, the swing rod 10 is limited by the extrusion convex strip 1021, so that the swing rod 10 swings and tends to be perpendicular, thereby driving the rotating shaft 8 to rotate, the gear 9 on the surface of the rotating shaft 8 meshes with the toothed rod 7 to drive the second sealing plug 71 to move to the pump shell body 6, so as to block and seal the water inlet of the pump shell body 6; the first sealing plug 202 and the second sealing plug 71 are made of rubber material and have the same structure, and can be deformed to a certain extent after being extruded, so as to ensure sealing, thereby realizing the effect of automatic sealing during detection, without the need to additionally increase sealing equipment for the water inlet and outlet of the pump shell body 6, improving the convenience during detection, and keeping stable and not being affected by water flow movement; after the pump shell body 6 is completely immersed in water, gas is injected into the inside, and whether bubbles are generated in water is observed to judge the sealing property of the pump shell body 6;

[0035] After detection, the docking cylinder 201 is lifted up. Due to the presence of the spring 4, the lifting plate 5 will also move up when the docking cylinder 201 moves up, until it is blocked by the limiting top plate 301. Continuous upward movement of the docking cylinder 201 can make the first sealing plug 202 no longer block the water inlet of the pump shell body 6. In this process, the height of the lifting plate 5 exceeds the extrusion convex strip 1021, at this time the swing rod 10 is not limited by extrusion, and the second sealing plug 71 can be controlled by pulling the swing rod 10 to no longer seal the drain port of the pump shell body 6, so as to facilitate the disassembly of the pump shell body 6, and facilitate the disassembly work after detection.

[0036] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present application, and it should be pointed out that for ordinary skilled in the art, without departing from the principles of the present application, a number of improvements and refinements can be made, and these improvements and refinements should be considered as the protection scope of the present application.
