[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] Please see Figures 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a wire harness airtightness testing device, including a base 1 and an airtightness testing component 2 installed on the base 1. The airtightness testing component 2 has a testing port 3 adapted to the wire harness body 8. A support plate 7 is slidably connected to the base 1. A fixing member for fixing the wire harness body 8 is provided between the airtightness testing component 2 and the support plate 7. A start button 4 is provided on one side of the airtightness testing component 2, and a triggering unit is provided on the support plate 7. A driving member for driving the support plate 7 to slide on the base 1 is provided on the base 1.

[0027] Specifically, the wire harness airtightness testing device includes a base 1 and an airtightness testing component 2 mounted on the base 1. The airtightness testing component 2 is existing technology and can employ a pneumatic testing method. The airtightness testing component 2 has a testing port 3 adapted to the wire harness body 8. During testing, the wire harness body 8 is inserted into the testing port 3. The operation process is as follows: 1. Inflation: Seal the wire harness and inflate it with gas at a certain pressure; 2. Pressure Stabilization: Wait for the pressure to stabilize; 3. Testing: Use a pressure sensor to monitor pressure changes. If the pressure drops beyond a set threshold within a specified time, it is determined to be a leak. More detailed operational procedures are not elaborated here. A support plate 7 is slidably connected to the base 1. A fixing member for securing the wire harness body 8 is provided between the airtightness testing component 2 and the support plate 7. Therefore, when airtightness testing of the wire harness body 8 is required, the wire harness body 8 is mounted on the support plate 7. During the sliding motion of the wire harness by the support plate 7, the fixing member secures the wire harness body 8, improving the stability of the wire harness body 8 during airtightness testing and resulting in better performance. A start button 4 is provided on one side of the airtightness testing component 2, and a trigger unit is provided on the support plate 7. When the start button 4 is pressed, the airtightness testing component 2 is activated to perform airtightness testing on the wire harness body 8, meeting operational requirements. A driving component is provided on the base 1 to drive the support plate 7 to slide within the base 1. Therefore, when using this airtightness testing device, the wire harness body 8 is first installed on the support plate 7. Then, the support plate 7 is driven to slide closer to the airtightness testing component 2 by the drive component. During the sliding stroke of the support plate 7, the wire harness body 8 is fixed by the fixing component, which can improve the stability of the wire harness body 8 during airtightness testing and improve the performance. When the trigger unit contacts the start button 4, the airtightness testing component 2 will be activated to perform airtightness testing on the wire harness body 8, meeting the work requirements. In this process, there is no need to use separate control to start the airtightness testing component 2, further improving the working efficiency of the testing device.

[0028] In the embodiments provided by this utility model, the driving component includes a mounting block 17 fixedly connected to the base 1. The base 1 has a sliding groove 16 adapted to the mounting block 17. The mounting block 17 is slidably connected to the base 1 through the sliding groove 16. The base 1 is provided with a power cylinder 18. The mounting block 17 is located at the output end of the power cylinder 18, which can improve the stability of the bearing plate 7 when it slides.

[0029] In the embodiments provided by this utility model, the support plate 7 is provided with a mounting groove 5, and the fixing component includes two clamping plates 11 slidably connected to both sides of the mounting groove 5. A pressure applying unit is provided between the airtightness detection component 2 and the two clamping plates 11. During use, when the pressure applying unit applies pressure to the two clamping plates 11, it will drive the two clamping plates 11 to move closer to each other, fixing the wire harness body 8, which can meet the airtightness detection requirements of the wire harness body 8. More specifically, both clamping plates 11 are provided with matching grooves that are compatible with the wire harness body 8, which facilitates the installation and use of the wire harness body 8.

[0030] In the embodiments provided by this utility model, the pressure application unit specifically includes a trigger rod 15 fixedly connected to the airtightness detection component 2, a trigger block 13 fixedly connected to the clamping plate 11, and a trigger groove 14 formed on the trigger block 13, with the trigger rod 15 abutting against the trigger groove 14. Therefore, during use, when the bearing plate 7 slides to a predetermined position closer to the airtightness detection component 2, the trigger rod 15 contacts the trigger block 13 through the trigger groove 14, and the trigger block 13 drives the two clamping plates 11 to move closer to each other, thus fixing the wire harness body 8.

[0031] In the embodiments provided by this utility model, a spring 12 is provided between each clamping plate 11 and the bearing plate 7. The elastic force of the spring 12 drives the two clamping plates 11 to move away from each other. Under the action of the elastic force of the spring 12 in the original state, the two clamping plates 11 are driven to move away from each other. That is, when the bearing plate 7 is away from the airtightness detection component 2, the two clamping plates 11 are in a state of moving away from each other, which facilitates the installation and disassembly of the wire harness body 8.

[0032] In the embodiments provided by this utility model, the triggering unit includes an extension plate 9 fixedly connected to the support plate 7, and an abutment part 10 fixedly connected to the extension plate 9, the abutment part 10 intermittently abutting against the start button 4.

[0033] In the embodiments provided by this utility model, a slide rail 6 is fixedly connected to the base 1, and a guide groove adapted to the slide rail 6 is provided on the bearing plate 7. The bearing plate 7 is slidably connected to the base 1 through the cooperation between the guide rail and the guide groove, thereby improving the stability of the bearing plate 7 when sliding.

[0034] In another embodiment of this invention, the two clamping plates 11 are connected by a transmission unit. In this embodiment, the transmission unit includes a rotating rod with a spur gear mounted on it. Each clamping plate 11 has a rack fixedly connected to its bottom, with the racks meshing on opposite sides of the spur gear. Therefore, when one clamping plate 11 slides, the racks and spur gears work together to drive the two clamping plates 11 closer together, resulting in a better effect.

[0035] In the embodiments provided by this utility model, an anti-slip pad is provided on the bottom of the base 1 to improve the stability of the device during operation.

[0036] It should be noted that all electrical equipment involved in this application can be powered by batteries or external power sources.
