[0028] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, this utility model claims protection for a leak detection mold for gasket end face sealing detection. The leak detection mold is mainly used to detect whether the sealing gasket C is missing or excessive at the pipe joint B of pipe fitting A. Through reasonable structural design, it can conveniently and accurately perform sealing detection on the pipe fitting A to be tested. Moreover, it adopts a purely mechanical design, has a simple structure, and low manufacturing cost.

[0030] Specifically, a leak detection mold for gasket end-face sealing testing includes a base 1, which is the fundamental component of the entire leak detection mold. The base 1 has a flat side end face and a flat bottom end face. A first interface 101 for inserting the pipe fitting A to be tested is provided on the side end face. The first interface 101 communicates with a second interface 102. The aperture of the first interface 101 satisfies the dimensional relationship: D2>D1>D0, where D2 is the outer diameter of the sealing gasket C, D1 is the aperture of the first interface 101, and D0 is the outer diameter of the pipe fitting A to be tested. This dimensional design ensures that the sealing gasket C can be correctly installed between the pipe fitting A to be tested and the first interface 101. A stepped recessed structure is formed at the port of the second interface 102. This structure may be used for connection with other testing equipment or pipelines, serving a positioning and sealing function.

[0031] The flat lower surface of base 1 is equipped with an anti-slip component to prevent the leak detection mold from sliding during the inspection process. The anti-slip component includes a rubber pad layer vulcanized and bonded to the lower surface, and an anti-slip textured structure formed on the lower surface of the rubber pad layer. The rubber pad layer provides a certain degree of elasticity and friction, and the anti-slip textured structure further enhances the anti-slip effect.

[0032] A handle 2 is hinged to the base 1, and the end of the handle 2 is provided with an anti-disengagement limiting hook 201. The handle 2 is pivotally connected to the first base 8 and the second base 9 symmetrically arranged on the base 1 by a fixing pin. The first base 8 and the second base 9 are fixed to the base 1 by fixing screws 10. The head of the fixing screws 10 is provided with an internal hexagonal groove, which facilitates installation and removal using an internal hexagonal wrench.

[0033] The handle 2 is rotatably connected to a movable pin 3. The movable pin 3 has an axial mounting hole, through which an adjusting screw 4 passes. The adjusting screw 4 is fixed to the movable pin 3 by a nut 5. The nut 5 is a double nut configuration, located on both sides of the movable pin 3. This double nut configuration can prevent the adjusting screw 4 from loosening. By adjusting the position of the two nuts 5, the distance between the pressure plate 6 and the side end face can be adjusted. The distance between the pressure plate 6 and the side end face is set to accommodate only one sealing gasket C. If the sealing gasket C is missing, a leak alarm will be triggered during the leak detection process. If more sealing gaskets C are installed, the handle 2 cannot be pressed down further to fasten the product.

[0034] An anti-loosening washer 7 is provided between the adjusting screw 4 and the pressure plate 6, which further enhances the stability of the connection.

[0035] The adjusting screw 4 is connected to a pressure plate 6. The lower end of the pressure plate 6 is provided with an arc-shaped opening 601 that matches the outer diameter of the pipe A to be tested. The radius of curvature of the arc-shaped opening 601 is in tolerance with the outer diameter of the pipe A to be tested, so as to ensure that the pressure plate 6 can fit tightly against the pipe A to be tested.

[0036] The specific working principle is as follows: Based on the size of the pipe fitting A to be tested and the specifications of the sealing gasket C, select a suitable position for the adjusting screw 4, and fix the adjusting screw 4 on the movable pin 3 using double nuts 5, so that the distance between the pressure plate 6 and the side end face is equal to the sum of the joint thickness and the thickness of the preset number of sealing gaskets C; then insert the pipe fitting A to be tested into the first interface 101 on the side end face of the base 1, ensuring that the pipe fitting is inserted in place; then press down the handle 2, the handle 2 rotates around the fixed pin, driving the movable pin 3 and the adjusting screw 4 to move downward, thereby driving the pressure plate 6 to press the pipe fitting joint B against the side end face. At this time, the distance between the pressure plate 6 and the side end face is equal to the sum of the joint thickness and the thickness of the preset number of sealing gaskets C, so that the sealing gasket C is subjected to appropriate pressure, simulating the sealing state in actual use; finally, connect the second interface 102 to the testing equipment or pipeline, apply a certain pressure to the pipe fitting A to be tested or introduce testing gas through the testing equipment, and observe whether there is any leakage, thereby judging the sealing performance of the sealing gasket C. Assuming that the distance between the pressure plate 6 and the side end face can only accommodate one sealing gasket C, if the sealing gasket C is missing, the leak detection process will trigger an air leak alarm. If more sealing gaskets C are installed, the handle 2 cannot be pressed down further to fasten the product, thus also serving as a foolproof inspection measure.

[0037] This utility model adopts a purely mechanical design, with a simple structure and low manufacturing cost. The anti-slip component at the lower end of the base 1 enhances the stability of the leak detection mold during testing. The double nuts and anti-loosening gaskets 7 ensure stable connection and allow adjustment of the distance between the pressure plate and the side end face. Finally, by detecting gas leakage, the sealing performance can be judged, thereby checking for missing or extra sealing gaskets C, playing a foolproof role and improving the accuracy and efficiency of testing.

[0038] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. However, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
