[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of sealing testing devices, and in particular to a device for testing the sealing performance of end caps for hydraulic pumps. Background Technology

[0002] The end cap of a hydraulic pump is a crucial component of the hydraulic pump assembly, typically used to seal both ends of the pump and protect internal parts from external environmental influences. It is usually made of cast iron, aluminum alloy, stainless steel, or other corrosion-resistant and high-pressure-resistant materials to ensure the pump's reliability and sealing performance. After the hydraulic pump end caps are manufactured, their sealing performance needs to be tested. Existing sealing performance testing equipment often relies on operators manually placing the end caps at the testing points before starting the test. This method is unstable when the end caps are in place, reducing the accuracy of the test data and the efficiency of the testing process. Furthermore, the operator's hand being placed inside the testing area poses a safety hazard. Therefore, we propose a hydraulic pump end cap sealing performance testing device.

[0017] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0018] Example

[0019] like Figure 1-3 As shown, this utility model proposes a hydraulic pump end cap sealing performance testing device, including an automatic conveyor 1. A stand 2 is installed at one end of the automatic conveyor 1. A U-shaped assembly groove is opened on the side of the stand 2 near the automatic conveyor 1. One end of the automatic conveyor 1 is installed correspondingly to the inner wall of the stand 2 and is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the assembly groove. An airtightness testing mechanism 7 is installed on one side of the stand 2. The airtightness testing mechanism 7 includes an air pump 71 located on one side of the stand 2. One side of the air pump 71 is in close contact with the stand 2 and is stably placed on the ground. An air pipe 72 is connected to the air outlet of the air pump 71. One end of the air pipe 72 is installed correspondingly to the air outlet of the air pump 71 and is fixedly connected to the air outlet of the air pump 71. An airtightness testing base 73 is installed at the end of the air pipe 72 away from the air pump 71, and the other end of the air pipe 72 is connected to the airtightness testing base 73. 3. Corresponding installation: The other end of the air pipe 72 is fixedly connected to the air inlet port of the airtightness testing base 73. A position sensor 74 is installed on the airtightness testing base 73. A second detection hole is opened on the airtightness testing base 73. The mounting end of the position sensor 74 is fixedly connected to the second detection hole. A base plate 6 is installed at the bottom of the inner wall of the upright 2. The mounting end of the base plate 6 is fixedly connected to the upright 2. The mounting end of the airtightness testing base 73 is installed correspondingly above the base plate 6. The mounting end of the airtightness testing base 73 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the base plate 6. When the airtightness testing base 73 is in the assembled state, its height is consistent with the height of the conveyor roller on the automatic conveyor 1. The setting that the height of the airtightness testing base 73 is consistent with the height of the conveyor roller on the automatic conveyor 1 makes it easier for the end cap to be transported to the airtightness testing base 73 by the automatic conveyor 1. The setting of the airtightness testing mechanism 7 can perform the sealing performance test of the end cap.

[0020] A pressing mechanism 3 is provided on one side of the upright frame 2. The pressing mechanism 3 includes a mounting platform 31. The mounting end of the mounting platform 31 is installed corresponding to one side of the inner wall of the upright frame 2. The mounting platform 31 is L-shaped. One side of the mounting platform 31 is fixedly connected to the upright frame 2. A cylinder 32 is provided on the mounting platform 31. The mounting end of the cylinder 32 is installed corresponding to the upper side of the mounting platform 31. The mounting end of the cylinder 32 is fixedly connected to the mounting platform 31. A connecting plate 33 is provided at the output end of the cylinder 32. A guide rail 8 is provided on one side of the inner wall of the upright frame 2 below the mounting platform 31. The mounting end of the guide rail 8 is fixedly connected to the upright frame 2. The mounting end of the connecting plate 33 is installed corresponding to the slider on the guide rail 8. The mounting end of the connecting plate 33 is fixedly connected to one side of the slider on the guide rail 8. The guide rail 8 guides the movement of the connecting plate 33, making it more stable during movement and thus making the sealing performance testing of the hydraulic pump end cover more stable. A connecting seat 34 is located above the connecting plate 33, directly below the output end of the cylinder 32. The mounting end of the connecting seat 34 is installed corresponding to one side of the upper part of the connecting plate 33 and is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 33. The output end of the cylinder 32 is installed corresponding to one side of the connecting seat 34 and is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting seat 34. The connecting seat 34 allows the hydraulic pump end cover to be moved more smoothly. Cylinder 32 drives connecting plate 33 to move along guide rail 8. An airtightness detection cover 35 is located below connecting plate 33. A pressure sensor 37 is installed on the side of airtightness detection cover 35 away from connecting plate 33. A detection hole is provided on airtightness detection cover 35. The mounting end of pressure sensor 37 is fixedly connected to detection hole 1. The pressure sensor 37 can detect the downward pressure of airtightness detection cover 35, thus enabling more precise control of the applied pressure. Multiple sets of damping rods 36 are provided between connecting plate 33 and airtightness detection cover 35. The two ends of damping rods 36 respectively abut against the connecting plate 33 and airtightness detection cover 35. Installed on one side, the shock absorber 36 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 33 and the airtightness test cover 35 at both ends. The multiple sets of shock absorbers 36 can buffer and dampen the pressure when the airtightness test cover 35 applies pressure to the end cover, thereby greatly improving the stability of the sealing performance test operation. At the same time, it can also protect the end cover during the test operation and prevent the end cover from being damaged by excessive pressure from the airtightness test cover 35. The pressing mechanism 3 can press down stably on the top of the end cover, thereby ensuring the sealing effect inside the end cover when it is placed. It can then cooperate with the airtightness test mechanism 7 to test the sealing performance of the end cover.

[0021] Side plates 4 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the automatic conveyor 1 near the upright 2. The mounting ends of the side plates 4 are installed corresponding to the inner wall of the automatic conveyor 1 and are fixedly connected to the automatic conveyor 1. One side of the side plate 4 is inclined, which guides the hydraulic pump end caps conveyed by the automatic conveyor 1, ensuring that the end caps are accurately delivered to the detection position. This avoids the danger of manual placement and improves operator protection. Clamping mechanisms 5 are provided on the sides of the two sets of side plates 4 that are close to each other. Each clamping mechanism 5 includes an electric push rod 51 installed on one side of the upright 2. The mounting ends of the electric push rod 51 are installed corresponding to one side of the upright 2 and are fixedly connected to the upright 2. A clamping plate 52 is provided at the output end of the electric push rod 51. The upper and lower sides of the clamping plate 52 are connected to the inner wall of the side plate 4. The walls are fitted together, and the clamping plate 52 is slidably connected to the side plate 4. One side of the clamping plate 52 is arc-shaped, which allows it to fit better against the outer circumference of the end cover. Two sets of guide rods 53 are provided on the opposite side of the two sets of clamping plates 52. One end of the guide rod 53 is installed corresponding to one side of the clamping plate 52 and is fixedly connected to the clamping plate 52. Multiple sets of shaft holes are correspondingly opened on the automatic conveyor 1, the upright frame 2, and the side plate 4. The output end of the electric push rod 51 and the guide rod 53 are respectively installed corresponding to the shaft holes. The electric push rod 51 and the guide rod 53 are slidably connected to the shaft holes. The guide rod 53 can guide and limit the movement of the clamping plate 52. The clamping mechanism 5 can clamp the end cover conveyed to the test point, so that the end cover can be placed more stably in the test state, which is conducive to the stable operation of the end cover sealing performance test.

[0022] In this embodiment, the operator first powers on the device, then places the hydraulic pump end cap, which needs to be tested for sealing performance, on the automatic conveyor 1. The automatic conveyor 1 transports the end cap, which is guided by the inclined surface of the side plate 4 during transport, so that the end cap is transported to the airtightness testing base 73. At this time, the position sensor 74 detects the position of the end cap. When the end cap position corresponds to the airtightness testing base 73, the electric push rod 51 starts to operate. The electric push rod 51 pushes the clamping plate 52, so that the clamping plate 52 slides along the inner wall of the side plate 4 guided by the guide rod 53, so that the clamping plate 52 clamps and stabilizes the end cap at the testing point. Then the cylinder... In operation 32, cylinder 32 drives connecting plate 33 to slide along guide rail 8 via connecting seat 34. The movement of connecting plate 33 causes the airtightness detection cover 35 below to move towards the end cover position. When the airtightness detection cover 35 and the end cover are in contact, pressure sensor 37 detects the downward pressure of airtightness detection cover 35, keeping airtightness detection cover 35 within the set pressure threshold. Then, air pump 71 starts to operate, and air pump 71 inflates air into airtightness detection base 73 through air pipe 72. Thus, airtightness detection base 73 and pressure sensor 37 work together to accurately detect the pressure value between end cover and airtightness detection base 73, thereby completing the end cover sealing performance test.
