Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a clamp, specifically an intelligent sealing clamp for radiator pressure testing, belonging to the field of radiator testing technology. Background Technology

[0002] A radiator is an important device for efficiently transferring heat and controlling the temperature of equipment or systems. Its working principle is based on heat conduction, convection, and radiation, rapidly dissipating heat into the surrounding environment by increasing the heat dissipation area and enhancing heat exchange. Radiators play a crucial role in various fields. Computer CPU radiators, through a combination of heat sinks and fans, prevent chip performance degradation or even damage due to overheating; car engine radiators utilize coolant circulation to maintain the engine at a suitable operating temperature; and radiators in home heating systems use hot water or steam as the heat medium to dissipate heat into the room, creating a warm living environment for people.

[0003] Currently, during radiator pressure testing, operators need to manually adjust the pressurization device, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also prone to unstable pressure control due to human error, affecting the accuracy of test results. At the same time, detecting whether the radiator is leaking also mainly relies on manual observation, checking for water stains at the interface with the naked eye. The judgment standard is highly subjective, and problems in hidden parts are difficult to detect in time. This not only increases the workload of the testing personnel, but also easily leads to unqualified products entering the market due to missed detection, causing safety hazards. To address this, an intelligent sealing fixture for radiator pressure testing is proposed. Utility Model Content
