Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of latex product technology, and in particular to a latex product leakage detection device based on the principle of electrolysis. Background Technology

[0002] Condoms are barrier contraceptives, typically made of latex, polyurethane, or polyisoprene. They prevent pregnancy and the transmission of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) by physically blocking semen from entering the vagina. When used correctly, they are up to 98% effective in preventing pregnancy and also reduce the risk of STIs such as HIV and gonorrhea. When using a condom, check the expiration date and avoid puncturing it with sharp objects.

[0003] It is evident that the presence or absence of damage to a condom directly affects its ability to function as a contraceptive. Therefore, strict inspection for damage is necessary during the latex molding stage. Because latex itself has strong elasticity, it will spontaneously expand when filled with water or inflated. At this time, workers can relatively easily observe any damaged areas. However, in actual operation, sometimes due to manufacturing issues, latex may leak, which will also affect the contraceptive efficacy of the finished condom. In such cases, the latex may not show obvious damage, making inspection difficult. Utility Model Content

[0017] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention, which are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0018] A latex product leakage detection device based on the principle of electrolysis includes: a support tube 1, an electrolyte pool 2, a wire 3, an assembly plate 4, a push cylinder 5, and an electrical signal detection device. The electrolyte pool 2 is filled with electrolyte. The support tube 1 is used to hold the crude latex product to be tested. The support tube 1 corresponds to the electrolyte pool 2 so that the crude latex product is immersed in the electrolyte. The wire 3 extends into the crude latex product. The wire 3 is electrically connected to the electrical signal detection device. The crude latex product is spaced between the wire 3 and the electrolyte.

[0019] The carrier pipe 1 has a connecting groove 11 at its end near the electrolyte tank 2. The crude latex product is fitted onto the carrier pipe 1 through the connecting groove 11. A conductive channel 12 is also provided on the carrier pipe 1, extending through it. A wire 3 extends into the crude latex product through the conductive channel 12. A mounting plate 13 is also provided on the carrier pipe 1, located at the end of the carrier pipe 1 furthest from the crude latex product. The mounting plate 13 is fixedly connected to the carrier pipe 1. A mounting groove 131 is provided on the mounting plate 13, into which the wire 3 is embedded.

[0020] On the other hand, it also includes an assembly plate 4. The assembly plate 4 is disposed on the electrolyte tank 2. The assembly plate 4 is fixedly connected to the carrier tube 1. There are multiple carrier tubes 1. The carrier tubes 1 are arranged from one end of the assembly plate 4 to the other end. The wires 3 correspond one-to-one with the carrier tubes 1.

[0021] The system also includes a push cylinder 5. The output end of the push cylinder 5 is connected to the mounting plate 4. The extension and retraction direction of the push cylinder 5 corresponds to that of the electrolyte tank 2, so as to drive the carrier pipe 1 closer to or away from the electrolyte tank 2 via the mounting plate 4. A connecting plate 51 is also provided on the push cylinder 5. The connecting plates 51 are respectively located at both ends of the push cylinder 5. The connecting plates 51 are fixedly connected to the push cylinder 5. One connecting plate 51 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 4. The other connecting plate 51 is fixedly connected to the electrolyte tank 2.

[0022] In practical applications, electrolyte is pre-filled into electrolyte tank 2. The electrolyte can be made by mixing purified water with soluble metal salts. Thus, metal ions are present in the electrolyte. Simultaneously, a crude latex product is pre-fitted onto the carrier tube 1, with the opening of the crude latex product engaging the slot 11 of the carrier tube 1, ensuring a stable connection between the crude latex product and the carrier tube 1. Furthermore, the electrical signal detection device can be an electronic device such as a computer capable of independently receiving and processing electrical signals. The conductor 3 can be made of conductive materials such as copper wire.

[0023] Subsequently, the push cylinder 5 is activated. Driven by the push cylinder 5, the connecting plate 51, through the assembly plate 4, moves the carrying pipe 1 towards the electrolyte pool 2, immersing the crude latex product in the electrolyte. At this time, the crude latex product is positioned between the electrolyte and the wire 3. If there is no leakage of the crude latex product, the electrolyte cannot come into contact with the wire 3. The wire 3 itself cannot form a closed circuit, and the electrical signal detection device cannot detect the current, indicating that the current product is normal.

[0024] If there is leakage in the crude latex product, the electrolyte will seep through the crude latex product and into its interior. Because the electrolyte contains metal ions, it can form a closed circuit with wire 3. At this time, the electrical signal detection device can detect the current, indicating that at least one of the crude latex products being tested is abnormal, and thus indicating that all products in the same batch are at risk of abnormality.

[0025] Preferably, purified water can be pre-filled into the crude latex sample. Firstly, the purified water causes the crude latex sample to expand, making it easier to detect leaks. Secondly, if leakage does occur, the leaked electrolyte will dissolve in the purified water within the crude latex sample, allowing metal ions in the electrolyte to connect to the wire 3 earlier. This effectively improves detection efficiency.

[0026] Once the test is complete, the cylinder 5 is reversed, causing the carrier tube 1 to move in the opposite direction, thus separating the crude latex from the electrolyte. At this point, the worker can remove the crude latex for the next batch of testing.
