[0026] Please combine Figures 1 to 5As shown, this utility model provides a corrugated pipe pressure resistance testing device. The testing device includes a rotating column 18 and a fixed cylinder 17 rotatably installed at the bottom end of the rotating column 18. A connecting block 3 is fixedly installed on the top end of the rotating column 18, and multiple rotating plates 1 are fixedly installed on the connecting block 3. The multiple rotating plates 1 are evenly distributed in the circumferential direction of the rotating column 18. A corrugated support block 2 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of each rotating plate 1. A corrugated placement groove adapted to the corrugated pipe is provided on the corrugated support block 2. The corrugated pipe is placed on the corrugated support block 2 and can be stably supported on the corrugated support block 2.
[0027] The fixed cylinder 17 is equipped with a drive assembly, which includes a second motor 19, a gear 20 and a gear ring 21. The second motor 19 is fixedly installed inside the fixed cylinder 17, the gear 20 is fixedly installed on the output end of the second motor 19, and the gear ring 21 is fixedly installed on the rotating column 18. The gear 20 and the gear ring 21 are kept in a meshing state.
[0028] A support frame is provided on one side of the fixed cylinder 17. A display screen 8 is fixedly installed on the support frame. A hydraulic cylinder 12 is installed on the support frame and above the corrugated support block 2. A pressure sensor 14 is fixedly installed on the movable end of the hydraulic cylinder 12 through a fixed plate 13. A pressure plate 15 is fixedly installed on the pressure sensor 14.
[0029] When performing a pressure test on the bellows, the bellows support block 2 supporting the bellows rotates to be directly below the pressure plate 15. At this time, the movable end of the hydraulic cylinder 12 extends, and the pressure plate 15 presses down on the bellows. The pressure sensed by the pressure sensor 14 is transmitted to the display screen 8 and displayed on the display screen 8. After the test is completed, the drive assembly continues to drive the rotating column 18 to rotate, and the bellows on another bellows support block 2 moves to be directly below the pressure plate 15 to continue the pressure test. During this period, the worker replaces the bellows that have been tested, realizing uninterrupted testing, which helps to improve the testing efficiency of the bellows.
[0030] The support frame includes an auxiliary support plate 4, support legs 5, a connecting plate 6, and a top plate 7. There are four or more support legs 5, and each support leg 5 is fixedly connected to the auxiliary support plate 4. The top plate 7 is fixedly connected to the auxiliary support plate 4 through the connecting plate 6. The upper surface of the auxiliary support plate 4 and the lower surface of the rotating plate 1 are at the same height. During pressure testing, the corrugated support block 2 is subjected to a large pressure. The auxiliary support plate 4 provides auxiliary support for the rotating plate 1, increases the pressure that the corrugated support block 2 can withstand, and avoids the corrugated support block 2 being subjected to excessive pressure, which would affect the service life of the testing device.
[0031] To ensure the accuracy of the inspection, multiple locations on the bellows are often inspected. Manually adjusting the bellows' position is cumbersome. Therefore, a movable block 10 is fixedly installed on the fixed end of the hydraulic cylinder 12. The movable block 10 is slidably mounted on the top plate 7, which has a channel for the movable block 10 to move. A threaded rod 9 is rotatably mounted on the top plate 7, with one end penetrating the interior of the movable block 10 and threadedly connected to it. A first motor 11 is fixedly mounted on the top plate 7, with its output end fixedly connected to one end of the threaded rod 9. When the inspection position needs to be changed, the first motor 11 is started, allowing the movable block 10 to move along the length of the top plate 7. A limiting plate 16 is fixedly installed on the movable block 10, fitting tightly against the lower surface of the top plate 7 to prevent excessive force between the movable block 10 and the threaded rod 9, which could affect their service life.
[0032] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model in any way. Those skilled in the art can readily implement this utility model based on the accompanying drawings and the above description. However, any modifications, alterations, or equivalent variations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the utility model's technical solution, utilizing the disclosed technical content, are considered equivalent embodiments of this utility model. Furthermore, any equivalent changes, alterations, or variations made to the above embodiments based on the essential technology of this utility model are still within the protection scope of this utility model's technical solution.
