[0021] Example 1:
[0022] like Figures 1-2As shown, a positive pressure airtightness testing device is used to test the airtightness of a test piece. The positive pressure airtightness testing device includes an air pump 1 and an exhaust structure 2. The air pump 1 and the exhaust structure 2 are respectively connected to the test piece. The test piece is equipped with an indicator device, and the airtightness of the test piece is confirmed by the indicator signal of the indicator device.
[0023] The positive pressure airtightness testing device is used to test the airtightness of the test chamber of the test piece. Air pump 1 is connected to the test chamber and delivers gas to the test chamber. When the airtightness of the test piece is qualified, the indicator device is in the non-triggered state. The air pressure in the test chamber gradually increases until it reaches the set air pressure, after which the exhaust structure 2 opens to exhaust gas. When the airtightness of the test piece is unqualified, the indicator device sends an indication signal.
[0024] The indicator device is used to confirm the airtightness of the test piece. When the airtightness of the test piece is qualified, the indicator device is in an untriggered state. When the airtightness of the test piece is unqualified, the indicator device sends an indication signal. Thus, the presence or absence of an indication signal can quickly and accurately confirm whether the airtightness of the test piece is qualified.
[0025] The indicator device is set to detect the liquid, which is loaded onto the test piece. The outlet of the air pump 1 extends into the liquid, and the air pump 1 delivers gas to the detection chamber. When the airtightness of the test piece is qualified, the air pressure in the detection chamber gradually increases until it reaches the set air pressure, at which point the exhaust structure 2 opens to exhaust gas. When the airtightness of the test piece is unqualified, the pressure forces the test liquid in the chamber to be squeezed out through the gaps, resulting in a leakage indication signal. Thus, by observing whether leakage occurs in the test piece, the airtightness of the test piece can be confirmed.
[0026] The test piece is loaded in the test liquid. Air pump 1 delivers gas to the test chamber. When the air tightness of the test piece is qualified, the air pressure in the test chamber gradually increases until it reaches the set air pressure. Then, the exhaust structure 2 opens to exhaust gas. When the air tightness of the test piece is unqualified, the air pressure gradually increases and exhausts gas through the gap. An indicator signal of bubbles appears in the test liquid. By observing whether bubbles appear in the test liquid, it can be confirmed whether the air tightness of the test piece is qualified.
[0027] For ease of operation and other reasons, the test liquid is usually loaded onto the test piece to confirm whether the airtightness of the test piece is up to standard.
[0028] The liquid being tested can be water, oil, or other similar liquids.
[0029] The air pump 1 is connected to the test piece through a sealing structure 3. The sealing structure 3 includes an air pipe 31 and a sealing head 32. The air pipe 31 connects the air pump 1 and the sealing head 32. The sealing head 32 is connected to the test piece. When the air pump 1 is started, gas is delivered to the test piece along the air pipe 31 and the sealing head 32.
[0030] The exhaust structure 2 includes an exhaust pipe 21, and a one-way valve 22 is provided inside the exhaust pipe 21. The exhaust pipe 21 is connected to the test piece. When the internal air pressure of the test piece reaches the set air pressure, the one-way valve 22 opens to exhaust air. The set air pressure is 10 MPa.
[0031] Preferably, the positive pressure airtightness testing device includes an adapter plate with two sets of sealing heads 32. The exhaust pipe 21 is connected to the test piece through one set of sealing heads 32, and the air pipe 31 is connected to the test piece through the other set of sealing heads 32.
[0032] The positive pressure airtightness detection device also includes a control board 4 and a switch 5. The control board 4 is electrically connected to the air pump 1. Pressing the switch 5 causes the control board 4 to control the opening and closing of the air pump 1.
[0033] The positive pressure airtightness testing device also includes a power cord 6, which is connected to the control board 4. When the power cord 6 is plugged in and the power is turned on, the switch 5 is pressed, and the control board 4 sends an opening signal to the air pump 1. The air pump 1 receives the opening signal and starts to deliver gas to the test object.
[0034] The air pump 1 can be turned off by pressing the switch 5. Specifically, when the switch 5 is pressed, the control board 4 sends a shutdown signal to the air pump 1, and the air pump 1 receives the shutdown signal and stops supplying gas to the test object.
[0035] Alternatively, the control board 4 can be set to send a shutdown signal to the air pump 1 at regular intervals to achieve automatic power-off.
[0036] The positive pressure airtightness testing device also includes an air box 7, a control board 4 and an air pump 1 installed inside the air box 7, a switch 5 located outside the air box 7 for easy pressing, and a power cord 6 extending outward through the air box 7.
[0037] The implementation process of this embodiment is as follows:
[0038] When the airtightness of the test piece needs to be tested, the test liquid is loaded into the test piece, and the test piece is installed in the sealing head 32. After the test piece is installed, the switch 5 is pressed, and the control board 4 sends an start signal to the air pump 1. The air pump 1 receives the start signal and starts to deliver gas to the test piece along the air pipe 31 and the sealing head 32. The air pump 1 delivers gas to the chamber at regular intervals. During this process, the air pressure in the test chamber gradually increases. If there is a gap in the test piece, the pressure drives the test liquid in the chamber to be squeezed out through the gap, resulting in a leakage indication signal. If there is no gap in the test piece, the air pressure... After the pressure is further increased to the set level, the one-way valve 22 opens to release air. No leakage indication signal appears, thus the airtightness of the tested component is confirmed by observing whether leakage occurs. This application adopts the positive pressure detection principle to replace the traditional negative pressure vacuum detection method, avoiding the problem of false positives caused by the suction of soft sealing materials by negative pressure. It effectively improves the accuracy and practicality of detection, reduces the defect rate, saves production costs, and has a simple overall structure and is easy to operate, making it easy to promote and apply to the airtightness testing needs of industries such as small household appliances.
[0039] In other implementations, the control board can also be powered by a battery.

Workers can perform normal operation on them according to the existing technical manual, and the connection between them adopts the conventional connection method in the prior art, which will not be described in detail here.

All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without inventive effort should fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
