[0017] Reference drawings Figure 1 A device for detecting the outflow effect, comprising a first air pipe 10 and a second air pipe 20 arranged in parallel, so that the pressure entering the two air pipes is consistent, the first air pipe and the second air pipe are both provided with a same air source for air discharge operation, the air inlet ends of the first air pipe and the second air pipe have the same pressure, the air outlet end of the first air pipe is used for connecting a product A to be detected, and the air outlet end of the second air pipe is used for connecting a standard good product B; the first air pipe is provided with a first air inlet valve 11 and a first on-off valve 12 in sequence along the air flow direction, and the second air pipe is provided with a second air inlet valve 21 and a second on-off valve 22 in sequence along the air flow direction; further comprising a communication pipe 30, one end of the communication pipe is communicated with the first air pipe between the first air inlet valve and the first on-off valve, and the other end of the communication pipe is communicated with the second air pipe between the second air inlet valve and the second on-off valve; the communication pipe is provided with a differential pressure sensor 31, and the differential pressure sensor can detect the pressure difference between the two air pipe ends.

[0018] Preferably, the air inlet pipe 40 is further provided, the air outlet end of the air inlet pipe is connected with the air inlet ends of the first air pipe and the second air pipe, the water inlet end of the air inlet pipe is connected with the air storage tank 50, and the air storage tank is used for storing compressed air.

[0019] Further, the pressure sensor 60 is arranged on the communication pipe or the first air pipe and the second air pipe located at the rear side of the communication pipe; in the air supply state, the numerical relationship between the pressure sensor and the air source pressure sensor can be adjusted by adjusting the lengths of the first air pipe and the second air pipe, so that the pressure loss drop after air release can be known. Meanwhile, an alarm device can be further arranged to remind whether the current state of the device is suitable for detecting the conditions of the to-be-detected product.

[0020] The utility model discloses still another technical feature: a method for detecting water outlet effect, comprising the following steps:

[0021] S10, more standard: by adjusting the lengths of the first air pipe and the second air pipe, then placing standard good products at the air outlet ends of the first air pipe and the second air pipe, simultaneously releasing air to make the differential pressure value ΔP displayed by the differential pressure sensor, the differential pressure value ΔP is used as a differential pressure standard to store for the reference of product detection;

[0022] S20, air charging: the electronic pressure regulating valve is adjusted to set the pressure to P0, the first air inlet valve and the second air inlet valve are opened, and the first switch valve and the second switch valve are closed, so that the electronic pressure regulating valve is kept at the value P0 before detection;

[0023] S30, air release: the standard good products at the air outlet ends of the first air pipe are replaced by to-be-detected products, the first switch valve and the second switch valve are opened, so that the first air pipe and the second air pipe are in the air supply state, then the value P of the differential pressure sensor is read, and the value P is compared with ΔP to judge the water outlet effect of the to-be-detected product.

[0024] Preferably, S21, air release detection, before S30, after S20, the first switch valve and the second switch valve are opened, so that the first air pipe and the second air pipe are in the air supply state, if the pressure (the value displayed by the air source pressure sensor) at the air outlet end of the air storage tank drops below the value P0, at this time, the electronic pressure regulating valve cannot provide normal pressure, the whole device stops working and alarms. In S10, the value of the pressure sensor is P1, by adjusting the lengths of the first air pipe and the second air pipe, the value P1 is one third of the value P0. In S30, the value P is the average value of the values of the differential pressure sensor read for many times.

[0025] The utility model discloses more specifically:

[0026] 1. Adjustment and calibration of the air pipes: Before testing the water spray effect of a product, the length of the two air pipes needs to be adjusted and the good product is calibrated. In the case of simultaneously discharging from the test end and the standard end, the length of the first air pipe and the second air pipe is adjusted so that the pressure measured by the sensor corresponding to the discharging is about 1 / 3 of the set gas pressure, i.e. P1=1 / 3P0. The differential pressure value caused by the slight change of the discharge flow of the test end will reach the maximum value, which is beneficial to improve the testing accuracy. After the length adjustment of the two air pipes is completed, the differential pressure value ΔP of the discharging of the good product of the test end and the good product of the standard end is measured. Note that the two air pipes here are good products. Under normal circumstances, ΔP should be zero, but in fact, due to the zero drift of the differential pressure sensor and the slight difference in structure between the test end and the standard end, the actual value may not be zero. The obtained ΔP is used as the differential pressure standard for calibration and is stored for reference during product testing.

[0027] 2. Inflation: The electronic pressure regulating valve is adjusted to the set inflation pressure P0, the first inlet valve of the test end and the second inlet valve of the standard end are opened, and the first switch valve of the test end and the second switch valve of the standard end are closed, so that the system has a stable set pressure before discharging.

[0028] 3. Discharge stabilization: The electronic pressure regulating valve continues to work at the set inflation pressure, the first inlet valve and the second inlet valve remain open, and the first switch valve and the second switch valve are opened at the same time to discharge the system. The discharge stabilization time is generally within 2-3 seconds, and the two ends of the entire device can enter a stable discharging state. In order to ensure that the system has sufficient stable discharge flow during the pressure stabilization and test discharging stages, a pressure sensor is arranged at the gas source end to monitor the pressure. If the gas source pressure drops below the set inflation and discharge pressure during the discharge stabilization and test discharging stages, the electronic pressure regulating valve cannot provide the set inflation and discharge pressure for the device, and the system will stop the testing process and alarm through the alarm device.

[0029] 4. Discharge test: The electronic voltage method, the first inlet valve and the second inlet valve, and the first switch valve and the second switch valve all maintain the open state during the discharge test stage. The average value P of the differential pressure sensor is read, and the water spray loss pressure drop S of the tested product is obtained by subtracting the differential pressure value stored during the calibration from the average value. When the tested water spray loss pressure drop is positive and greater than the set water spray pressure drop standard, it is judged that the product has weak defects in water discharge effect (such as the following situations: hole blockage, inclined discharge or bifurcation, etc.). When the tested water spray loss pressure drop is negative and less than the water spray leakage standard (which is a negative value), it is judged that the product has leakage defects in water discharge effect (such as the following situations: the water discharge hole is damaged and enlarged or significantly leaks, etc.).

[0030] After the test, the fluctuation range of the differential pressure of the good product test is-50-50Pa, the value of S is in this range, and the product to be tested can be a good product.

[0031] The above description shows and describes the preferred embodiments of the present application, as described above, it should be understood that the present application is not limited to the form disclosed herein, should not be considered as excluding other embodiments, but can be used in various other combinations, modifications and environments, and can be modified within the scope of the application conceived herein by the above teachings or related art or knowledge. The modification and change made by the person skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application shall be within the protection scope of the claims attached to the present application.
