[0042] When conducting hydrostatic tests, spherical titanium alloy containers need to be placed inside a pressure testing chamber. However, the weight of the titanium alloy container itself, coupled with its spherical structure, makes it difficult to place it into and remove it from the pressure testing chamber. Furthermore, directly placing the titanium alloy container into the pressure testing chamber for testing also poses a risk of damage to the container or the pressure testing chamber due to the lack of proper securing. To address these technical problems, this embodiment proposes a hydrostatic testing cage for titanium alloy containers. The titanium alloy container is stored within this cage, and then the cage, along with the titanium alloy container, is placed into the pressure testing chamber, thus resolving the aforementioned technical issues.

[0043] Reference Figures 1 to 3As shown in the figure, a water pressure test cage for a titanium alloy container according to an embodiment of this application includes a first frame 100, a second frame 200, a counterweight 400, and multiple first side tubes 300. The first frame 100 and the second frame 200 are arranged at intervals in the vertical direction. The first frame 100 is located above the second frame 200. The counterweight 400 is installed on the second frame 200 for placing the titanium alloy container. The multiple first side tubes 300 are arranged between the first frame 100 and the second frame 200 for connecting the first frame 100 and the second frame 200. The multiple first side tubes 300 are arranged at intervals along the edge of the first frame 100 to enclose a receiving area for placing the titanium alloy container. A receiving area is formed by multiple first side tubes 300 for placing the titanium alloy container. The top and bottom ends of the multiple first side tubes 300 are respectively connected to a first frame 100 and a second frame 200, which facilitates the hoisting of the cage frame in this embodiment, and thus facilitates the placement and removal of the titanium alloy container from the pressure test barrel. The second frame 200 is provided with a counterweight 400 to support the titanium alloy container. Together with the multiple first side tubes 300, it can limit the movement of the titanium alloy container and prevent damage to the titanium alloy container or pressure test barrel during the test.

[0044] It is conceivable that, in order to prevent the titanium alloy container from being damaged by direct collision with the cage, the counterweight 400 and / or the first frame 100 and / or the second frame 200 are covered with cushioning material. Preferably, the counterweight 400, the first frame 100, and the second frame 200 are all covered with cushioning material. The cushioning material can be any suitable existing technology according to the actual situation, and is not limited in this embodiment.

[0045] In the embodiments of this application, the first frame 100 and the second frame 200 preferably have the same size and shape, and both the first frame 100 and the second frame 200 are preferably annular, thereby effectively reducing production costs.

[0046] In the embodiments of this application, the first side tube 300 is preferably hollow to help reduce the overall weight of the cage in this embodiment; however, in order to prevent the hollow first side tube 300 from being flattened during the pressure test, the first side tube 300 is provided with a first through hole 310 that radially penetrates the first side tube 300, so that after the cage is submerged in water, water can enter the first side tube 300 through the first through hole 310, balancing the internal and external pressure of the first side tube 300 and preventing the first side tube 300 from being flattened by pressure.

[0047] In the embodiments of this application, the first through hole 310 is preferably disposed in the middle of the first side pipe 300, thereby facilitating the entry of water and the discharge of gas. The shape of the first through hole 310 can be specifically set according to the actual situation, for example, it can be set as follows: Figure 1 , Figure 2The circle shown can also be set to an ellipse, polygon, irregular shape, etc.; the shape and size of the through holes of multiple first side tubes 300 can be set to be the same or different.

[0048] After the cage is submerged in water, to ensure the internal and external pressures of the first side pipe 300 are balanced, the air inside the first side pipe 300 should be expelled as much as possible. Simultaneously, to prevent a large amount of water from remaining inside the first side pipe 300 when the cage is removed from the pressure test chamber, which could increase the cage's mass, refer to... Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the first frame 100 is provided with a first through hole 110 penetrating the first frame 100, and the second frame 200 is provided with a second through hole 210 penetrating the second frame 200. The first side tube 300 is axially penetrating through the center. The top end of the first side tube 300 is connected to the first through hole 110, and the bottom end is connected to the second through hole 210. Thus, when the cage frame of this embodiment is submerged in water, water can quickly enter the second side tube 700 through the second through hole 210 and the through hole, and air can quickly exit through the first through hole 110 and the through hole. When the cage frame of this embodiment is lifted out of the water, all the water in the first side tube 300 can flow out through the second through hole 210, avoiding the loss of water in the pressure test tank and also preventing water from accumulating in the first side tube 300 and causing corrosion of the first side tube 300.

[0049] It is conceivable that the shapes of the first through hole 110 and the second through hole 210 can be specifically set according to the actual situation. For example, they can be set to one or more of the following shapes: circle, ellipse, polygon, irregular shape, etc. The shapes and sizes of multiple first through holes 110 can be set to be the same or different, and the shapes and sizes of multiple second through holes 210 can also be set to be the same or different.

[0050] In the embodiments of this application, in order to effectively reduce manufacturing costs while ensuring the structural strength of the cage, the top end of the first side tube 300 is welded to the first frame 100; and / or, the bottom end of the first side tube 300 is welded to the second frame 200; and / or, the counterweight 400 is welded to the second frame 200. Specifically, preferably, while the top end of the first side tube 300 is welded to the first frame 100, the bottom end of the first side tube 300 is also welded to the second frame 200, and the counterweight 400 is also welded to the second frame 200.

[0051] It is conceivable that the top of the first side tube 300 and the first frame 100 can also be connected by fasteners such as bolts and clips according to actual needs. Correspondingly, the bottom of the first side tube 300 and the second frame 200, and the counterweight 400 and the second frame 200 can also be connected by fasteners such as bolts and clips.

[0052] In the embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 3As shown, there are two counterweight bars 400, symmetrically arranged, both connected to the second frame 200. The two counterweight bars 400 are symmetrically arranged about a vertical plane passing through the center line of the second frame 200. The two counterweight bars 400 facilitate the placement of the titanium alloy container between them, increasing the stability of the container and reducing the stress on each individual counterweight bar 400, thus extending its service life. The counterweight bars 400 themselves have a certain weight; having two counterweight bars also facilitates rapid water immersion of the cage, lowering its center of gravity and improving its stability.

[0053] In the embodiments of this application, the upper surface of the first frame 100 is provided with two first hoisting seats 120, which are symmetrically arranged. Specifically, refer to... Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the two first hoisting seats 120 are symmetrical about a vertical plane passing through the central axis of the first frame 100 to ensure that the cage can rise stably during hoisting.

[0054] It is conceivable that the number of first hoisting seats 120 is not limited to two, but can also be set to three, four, etc., according to actual needs. If the number of first hoisting seats 120 exceeds two, then multiple first hoisting seats 120 are preferably arranged at even intervals around the circumference.

[0055] Reference Figure 1 As shown, to improve the efficiency of testing titanium alloy containers, the cage in this embodiment can simultaneously hold two titanium alloy containers. Specifically, the cage also includes a third frame 500 and a fourth frame 600. The third frame 500 is positioned above the fourth frame 600, and the fourth frame 600 is positioned above and connected to the first frame 100. The third frame 500 and the fourth frame 600 are connected by multiple second side tubes 700. The fourth frame 600 is equipped with a support 800 for placing the titanium alloy container. The shape and size of the third and fourth frames are preferably the same, and the size and shape of the first, second, third, and fourth frames are also preferably the same. The second side tubes 700 are preferably the same as the first side tubes 300, thereby effectively reducing manufacturing costs.

[0056] It can be assumed that, since the second side tube 700 is basically the same as the first side tube 300, the second side tube 700 is provided with a second through hole 710 that radially penetrates the second side tube 700 in the middle, the third frame 500 is provided with a third through hole 510 that penetrates the third frame 500, the fourth frame 600 is provided with a fourth through hole 610 that penetrates the fourth frame 600, the second side tube 700 is axially penetrated in the center, the top end of the second side tube 700 is connected to the third through hole 510, and the bottom end is connected to the fourth through hole 610.

[0057] In the first embodiment of this application, the fourth frame 600 is detachably connected to the first frame 100, for example... Figure 2 As shown, the upper surface of the third frame 500 is provided with a third hoisting seat 520, and the lower surface of the fourth frame 600 is provided with a fourth hoisting seat 620. The fourth hoisting seat 620 is connected to the first hoisting seat 120 by a locking member. The locking member can be a flexible locking member such as a rope, or a rigid locking member such as a buckle. In this embodiment, no limitation is made.

[0058] In a second embodiment of this application, the fourth frame 600 is fixedly connected to the first frame 100. For example, the first frame 100 and the fourth frame 600 are connected by a second side tube 700, and the second side tube 700 and the first side tube 300 are connected as an integral structure.

[0059] In actual testing, the fourth frame 600 can be detachably connected to the first frame 100 or the fourth frame 600 can be fixedly connected to the first frame 100, depending on the requirements. This embodiment does not impose any limitations.

[0060] Reference Figure 2 As shown, the support 800 can be made of hollow tube, and the end of the hollow tube is provided with an opening to reduce the overall weight of the cage in this embodiment. When the fourth frame 600 is detachably connected to the first frame 100, the support 800 can be fixedly connected to the fourth frame or detachably connected; when the fourth frame 600 is fixedly connected to the first frame 100, the support 800 must be detachably connected to the fourth frame, for example, the support 800 can be placed directly on the fourth frame.
