Detailed Implementation

[0023] To further understand the features, technical means, and specific objectives and functions achieved by this utility model, the following detailed description of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0024] See Figures 1-7As shown, a safety valve back pressure testing device includes a gas source gauge 100, an input pipe 101 on the gas source gauge 100, one end of the input pipe 101 being connected to an air filter pressure reducing valve 102, and the other end of the input pipe 101 being connected to a manual ball valve 106, a pipe on the manual ball valve 106 being connected to a tee connector 105, an output pipe 107 being connected to the tee connector 105, a fixture 108 being connected to the output pipe 107, a storage mechanism 200 on the gas source gauge 100, the storage mechanism 200 including a placement component for storing the fixture 108 and tools and a pipe winding component for storing pipes, and a quick-release mechanism 300 on the gas source gauge 100 for quickly assembling and disassembling the air filter pressure reducing valve 102.

[0025] During the back pressure test, according to the specifications of the safety valve, a PTFE jig 108 of the appropriate specification is taken from the placement assembly. A suitable length of pipe is pre-installed using the pipe winding assembly, and then U-shaped fasteners are used to secure it to the safety valve outlet flange. The clamping process is convenient and quick. A separate air source is used. The air source pressure is adjusted to the required pressure through the air filter pressure reducing valve 102, and the air source switch is controlled by the manual ball valve 106. The air source enters the safety valve outlet, and soapy water is sprayed for leak testing. This perfectly solves the problems of difficult valve clamping and high safety risks associated with the device.

[0026] The development of the back pressure testing fixture has solved the problems of difficult clamping, long time consumption, and high safety risks in back pressure testing of safety valves. It saves the calibration time of safety valves and labor costs. By setting up the quick-release mechanism 300, it is convenient to quickly install or remove the air filter pressure reducing valve 102, which facilitates the replacement of the air filter pressure reducing valve 102 and improves the working efficiency of the device.

[0027] See Figures 1-2 As shown, a precision pressure gauge 104 is provided on the top of the gas source gauge frame 100, and a pressure gauge connector 103 is provided on the precision pressure gauge 104. A pipe is provided between the pressure gauge connector 103 and the tee connector 105.

[0028] By setting a precision pressure gauge 104, the pressure of the gas source can be accurately determined, allowing staff to adjust the pressure according to the specifications of the safety valve, thus improving the accuracy of the experiment and the reliability of the device.

[0029] See Figures 1-3 As shown, the placement component includes a first storage box 201, which is disposed on the gas source meter rack 100, and a placement platform 208 is provided inside the first storage box 201.

[0030] By setting up placement components, after the experiment is completed, the disassembled fixture 108 can be placed into the placement platform 208, and the tools can be placed into the first storage box 201 for centralized collection for use in the next experiment, thereby improving the storage capacity of the device and enhancing its practicality and convenience.

[0031] See Figures 1-3 As shown, the tube winding assembly includes a second storage box 202 and a tube winding rod 204. The second storage box 202 is mounted on the gas source meter holder 100 and is arranged side by side with the first storage box 201. The tube winding rod 204 is rotatably mounted on the second storage box 202. One end of the tube winding rod 204 extends outside the second storage box 202 and is fixedly provided with a rotating handle 203. A buffer rod 205 is provided on the side wall of the second storage box 202 away from the rotating handle 203. A pressure plate 206 is provided on the buffer rod 205. The pressure plate 206 is sleeved on the tube winding rod 204 and is provided with multiple claw teeth 207.

[0032] By rotating the handle 203, the winding rod 204 is driven to rotate, and the redundant pipe is wound and stored. The buffer rod 205 pushes the pressure plate 206 so that the pressure plate 206 always abuts against the pipe to prevent the wound pipe from loosening. At the same time, the claw teeth 207 limit the pipe and improve the flexibility of the device.

[0033] See Figures 3-7 As shown, the quick-release mechanism 300 includes a snap-fit ​​plate 302, a lever 303, and a limiting block 307. The air source meter holder 100 is provided with a side plate 301. The side plate 301 has a snap-fit ​​groove 308 for snap-fitting the snap-fit ​​plate 302. The snap-fit ​​groove 309, which is adapted to the limiting block 307, is symmetrically provided along the central axis of the snap-fit ​​plate 302 in the snap-fit ​​groove 308. The snap-fit ​​plate 302 is provided on the air filter pressure reducing valve 102. The snap-fit ​​plate 302 has an L-shaped moving groove 304 symmetrically provided along the central axis of the snap-fit ​​plate 302. The lever 303 and the limiting block 307 are provided in the moving groove 304. The inner wall of the moving groove 304 has a guide groove 310. A slider is slidably fitted in the guide groove 310. The slider is connected to the side wall pipe of the lever 303. A spring 305 is provided between the lever 303 and the inner wall of the moving groove 304.

[0034] When the air filter pressure reducing valve 102 needs to be installed, the operator manually moves the lever 303 to retract the limit block 307 into the moving groove 304, then snaps the snap plate 302 into the snap groove 308, releases the lever 303, and uses the spring 305 to snap the limit block 307 into the limit groove 309, thus fixing the position of the air filter pressure reducing valve 102 and facilitating quick installation. When the air filter pressure reducing valve 102 needs to be replaced or repaired, the lever 303 is moved to compress the spring 305, causing the limit block 307 to move away from the limit groove 309, and then the snap plate 302 is pulled out of the snap groove 308, thus disassembling the air filter pressure reducing valve 102 and improving the convenience and flexibility of the device.

[0035] See Figures 4-7 As shown, the lever block 303 is provided with multiple anti-slip strips 306.

[0036] Multiple anti-slip strips 306 are installed to increase friction and prevent slipping, so that workers can move the lever 303 more easily and improve the stability of the device.

[0037] The above embodiments only illustrate one or more implementations of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the appended claims.
