Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of automotive heating systems, and relates to water pipes in automotive heating systems, particularly a sealing testing tool for water pipes. Background Technology

[0002] In the manufacturing process of automotive heating systems, the sealing test of water pipes is a crucial step, as it determines whether leaks will occur in the inlet and outlet pipes. Traditional sealing test devices insert a rubber plug into the water pipe and then expand the rubber plug to achieve a seal. However, during the heating system production process, some inlet and outlet pipe ends may contract inwards, making it difficult to insert the rubber plug and resulting in a poor seal. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a water pipe sealing test fixture that is simple in structure and easy to use.

[0004] To solve the above problems, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0005] A sealing test fixture for water pipes, comprising:

[0006] There are two sealing components, which are respectively installed at the top of the inlet pipe and the outlet pipe. The sealing component corresponding to the inlet pipe has an air intake channel, which is connected to the inlet pipe.

[0007] The fixing components consist of two parts, one end of which is connected to either the water inlet pipe or the water outlet pipe, and the other end is fitted with a sealing component.

[0008] In a further embodiment, the sealing assembly corresponding to the water inlet pipe includes a quick clamp, a first sealing block, and a sealing plug. The quick clamp is mounted on the fixing assembly, the first sealing block is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the quick clamp, and the sealing plug is embedded at the bottom end of the first sealing block. The sealing plug is suitable for sealing the top end of the water inlet pipe.

[0009] In a further embodiment, interconnected holes are formed in the first sealing block and the sealing plug to form an air intake channel. The air intake end of the air intake channel is located on the side end face of the first sealing block, and the air outlet end of the air intake channel is located on the bottom end face of the sealing plug, which is suitable for connecting to the water inlet pipe.

[0010] In a further embodiment, the sealing assembly corresponding to the water outlet pipe includes a quick clamp, a second sealing block, and a sealing plug. The quick clamp is mounted on the fixing assembly, the second sealing block is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the quick clamp, and the sealing plug is embedded at the bottom end of the second sealing block. The sealing plug is suitable for sealing the top end of the water outlet pipe.

[0011] In a further embodiment, when the quick clamp is opened, the quick clamp drives the first sealing block or the second sealing block to move upward, which is suitable for installing the water inlet pipe or the water outlet pipe.

[0012] When the quick clamp closes, it moves the first or second sealing block downwards, which is suitable for sealing tests on the inlet and outlet pipes.

[0013] In a further embodiment, the fixing component includes a mounting base and a fixing plate. A quick clip is inserted through the top of the mounting base, and the fixing plate is fixedly installed at the bottom of the mounting base. An inlet pipe or an outlet pipe is clamped onto the fixing plate.

[0014] In a further embodiment, one end of the fixing plate is provided with a slot, which is suitable for installing a water inlet pipe or a water outlet pipe;

[0015] The other end of the fixing plate has at least one bolt hole, which is suitable for connecting the mounting base.

[0016] In a further embodiment, the mounting base has an L-shaped structure.

[0017] In a further embodiment, the sealing plug is made of rubber.

[0018] In a further embodiment, the quick clamp secures the first sealing block or the second sealing block by connecting screws.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0020] 1. The quick-clamp of this sealing test fixture is fixedly installed with a first sealing block or a second sealing block at the bottom end. Both the first and second sealing blocks have sealing plugs embedded at their bottom ends. When the quick-clamp is closed, the sealing plugs abut against the top end of the inlet or outlet pipe, which can directly seal the end face of the inlet or outlet pipe without needing to be inserted into the water pipe. This solves the problem of the water pipe end shrinking inward and making it inconvenient to insert the rubber plug. It has a good sealing effect and is suitable for various water pipe structures.

[0021] 2. The fixing plate of this sealing test fixture has a slot for clamping the inlet or outlet water pipe. No complicated installation steps are required, which is convenient and quick. With the use of quick clamps, the entire sealing operation process is time-saving and labor-saving, which significantly improves the work efficiency of operators. Compared with traditional sealing methods, it can greatly shorten the testing time of a single product and improve the overall efficiency of production testing.

[0022] 3. The fixing plate of this sealing test fixture is made of nylon material, which will not damage the water pipe and its condition. While ensuring the sealing effect, it effectively protects the integrity of the water pipe, reduces water pipe damage caused by testing, and saves production costs. Attached Figure Description

[0029] Example 1:

[0030] A sealing test fixture for water pipes, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, it includes two sealing components 1 and two fixing components 2. The top ends of the two fixing components 2 are respectively fitted with sealing components 1, and the bottom ends of the two fixing components 2 are respectively fitted with water inlet pipe 3 or water outlet pipe 4. When the sealing component 1 is open, the bottom end of the sealing component 1 moves upward and away from the top end of the water inlet pipe 3 or water outlet pipe 4. When the sealing component 1 is closed, the bottom end of the sealing component 1 moves downward and abuts against the top end of the water inlet pipe 3 or water outlet pipe 4, which is suitable for sealing tests.

[0031] like Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, the sealing assembly 1 corresponding to the water inlet pipe 3 includes a quick clamp 11, a first sealing block 12, and a sealing plug 15. The quick clamp 11 is threaded onto the top end of the fixing assembly 2, and the bottom end of the quick clamp 11 extends through the fixing assembly 2 to the middle of the fixing assembly 2. The bottom end of the quick clamp 11 is fixedly installed with the first sealing block 12 by a connecting screw 14. The first sealing block 12 is located in the middle of the fixing assembly 2. The sealing plug 15 is embedded in the bottom end of the first sealing block 12. The sealing plug 15 is made of an elastic material, such as rubber. The first sealing block 12 and the sealing plug 15 have a communicating channel to form an air intake channel 121. The air intake channel 121 has an L-shaped structure. The air intake end of the air intake channel 121 is located on the side end face of the first sealing block 12, and the air outlet end of the air intake channel 121 is located in the middle of the bottom end face of the sealing plug 15. The quick-release clamp 11 is opened or closed by moving it left and right. When opened, the lower section of the quick-release clamp 11 moves upward, causing the first sealing block 12 to be lifted, which facilitates the installation and removal of the water inlet pipe 3. When closed, the lower section of the quick-release clamp 11 moves downward, causing the first sealing block 12 to fall, so that the sealing plug 15 abuts against the top of the water inlet pipe 3. At this time, the air outlet of the air inlet channel 121 is connected to the top of the water inlet pipe 3. Then, the air source and gas detector are connected to the air inlet of the air inlet channel 121. The amount of gas leakage is obtained by detecting the pressure value, and the sealing test is completed.

[0032] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, the sealing assembly 1 corresponding to the water outlet pipe 4 includes a quick clamp 11, a second sealing block 13, and a sealing plug 15. The quick clamp 11 is threaded onto the top end of the fixing assembly 2, and the bottom end of the quick clamp 11 extends through the fixing assembly 2 to the middle of the fixing assembly 2. The bottom end of the quick clamp 11 is fixedly installed with the second sealing block 13 by a connecting screw 14. The second sealing block 13 is located in the middle of the fixing assembly 2. The sealing plug 15 is embedded in the bottom end of the second sealing block 13. The quick clamp 11 is opened or closed by moving it left and right. When opened, the lower section of the quick clamp 11 moves upward, causing the second sealing block 13 to be lifted, which facilitates the installation and removal of the water outlet pipe 4. When closed, the lower section of the quick clamp 11 moves downward, causing the second sealing block 13 to fall, so that the sealing plug 15 abuts against the top end of the water outlet pipe 4 to seal the water outlet pipe 4, which is suitable for sealing testing.

[0033] like Figure 1 , Figure 4As shown, the fixing component 2 has a U-shaped structure and includes a mounting base 21 and a fixing plate 22. The mounting base 21 has an inverted L-shaped structure. A quick clip 11 is fixedly installed at the top of the mounting base 21, and a horizontally arranged fixing plate 22 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the mounting base 21. One end of the fixing plate 22 has a U-shaped slot 221 for clamping the inlet pipe 3 or the outlet pipe 4, making installation and removal quick and convenient. Two bolt holes 222 are spaced apart on the other side of the fixing plate 22, so that the fixing plate 22 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the mounting base 21 by bolts. Preferably, the fixing plate 22 is made of nylon material to avoid scratching the water pipe.

[0034] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
