Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vacuum chamber technology for detecting helium leaks in compressors, and more specifically, to a vacuum chamber door opening and closing mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] Air conditioner compressors are generally equipped with a four-way valve, which mainly acts as an intermediate station for refrigerant replacement in the cooling and heating modes of the air conditioner. Structurally, the upper end of the four-way valve is equipped with an exhaust pipe connector, and the lower end of the four-way valve is equipped with a condenser pipe connector, a return pipe connector, and a shut-off valve connector. The four pipe connectors are respectively connected to corresponding pipes for connecting to the compressor exhaust port, condenser, compressor suction port, and indoor unit.
[0003] In existing compressor helium leak detection, a four-way valve needs to be placed in a vacuum chamber. However, the existing vacuum chamber requires manual operation to open and close the door, which is inefficient and the seal is unstable.
[0004] The preceding description is intended to provide general background information and does not necessarily constitute prior art. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a vacuum chamber door opening and closing mechanism. This mechanism is simple and compact, provides stable testing results, is durable and efficient, saves time, and has promotional value.
[0006] This utility model provides a vacuum chamber door opening and closing mechanism, including a vacuum chamber body and an opening and closing mechanism. The vacuum chamber body is a rectangular parallelepiped with a hollow interior and an open top. The opening and closing mechanism includes a sealing cover, a first lever, a second lever, a connecting column, a connecting rod, a limit adjustment column, and a cylinder. The connecting column is fixedly connected to both the left and right sides of the vacuum chamber body, and the two connecting columns are symmetrically arranged. One end of the connecting rod and the side of the first lever are rotatably connected to the connecting column. The other end of the connecting rod is hinged to the second lever, and the other end of the second lever is hinged to the middle of the side of the sealing cover. The upper end of the first lever is hinged to the front of the side of the sealing cover, and the lower end of the first lever is hinged to the output end of the cylinder. The limit adjustment column is fixedly connected to both the left and right sides of the vacuum chamber body, and the two limit adjustment columns are symmetrically arranged. The limit adjustment column is located above the connecting rod.
[0007] Using the above technical solution, the product to be tested is placed inside the vacuum chamber body during use. The cylinder extends, and through the transmission of force via the first lever, connecting rod, and second lever, the sealing cover is driven to press tightly against the upper opening of the vacuum chamber body, thus sealing the vacuum chamber body. Conversely, when the cylinder retracts, the sealing cover opens. By adjusting the limit adjustment column, the opening amount of the sealing cover can be adjusted. The above actions together complete one opening and closing of the vacuum chamber door.
[0008] Furthermore, the door opening and closing mechanism also includes an O-ring seal, and an annular groove is provided at the upper opening of the vacuum chamber body, in which the O-ring seal is connected.
[0009] Furthermore, the door opening and closing mechanism also includes a hinge joint, which is hinged to the lower end of the first lever, and the other end of the hinge joint is connected to the output end of the cylinder.
[0010] This utility model's vacuum chamber door opening and closing mechanism features a simple and compact design, stable testing results, durability, high efficiency, and time-saving benefits, making it worthy of widespread application. It can replace manual or semi-automatic vacuum chamber door opening and closing, solving problems related to unstable sealing, layout space, and response speed. It is convenient and quick, improving production efficiency and ensuring product quality. Attached Figure Description
