[0037] Working principle: When using this utility model, the batch of infusion bags to be tested are placed on the conveyor belt 23, and then the parameters of the infusion bag are clicked on the display screen 21 to adjust the test pressure of the infusion bag.

Lever 9 drives the sliding frames 2 on both sides to slide up and down alternately, so that the pressure rods 7 on both sides press the infusion bag. During the pressing, the spring 8 on the pressure rod 7 plays a buffering role, realizing a gentle pressing. After repeated pressing, lever 9 returns to the horizontal state. Then, electric cylinder 4 starts, driving cylinder 5 to slide downward, so that pressure plate 6 moves downward until it presses the infusion bag. After holding for a few seconds, the system will record the value of the pressing sensor. If the value is stable, it is considered a qualified product. If the value decreases, it indicates leakage. The system will display "unqualified" on display screen 21 and alarm screen, while emitting a beeping sound. At the same time, the unqualified infusion bag is pushed out from the side of conveyor belt 23. Specifically, when the unqualified infusion bag is conveyed to the sliding bar 26, stepper motor III starts, driving screw 25 to rotate, which in turn drives sliding bar 26 to move, pushing the unqualified infusion bag to the side for classification.
