Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of sealing test technology, specifically relating to a leakage and sealing tester. Background Technology
[0002] The sealing performance tester is a core piece of equipment in the packaging testing field. It is mainly used to test the sealing performance of packaging containers (such as glass bottles, plastic bottles, and inflatable packaging) in the food, pharmaceutical, and daily chemical industries to prevent the contents from deteriorating or leaking due to sealing failure.
[0003] Currently available sealing testing equipment has significant limitations: Limited testing modes: Most devices only support either positive or negative pressure testing modes. When both modes need to be tested simultaneously, it is necessary to replace the equipment or repeatedly disassemble and adjust the air circuit, which is cumbersome and time-consuming, severely reducing testing efficiency. Lack of waste liquid treatment: Condensate and residual liquids that may be generated during the testing process are not properly collected by most equipment, and can easily flow and contaminate the internal gas path of the equipment, corrode components, and even affect the environment. Therefore, a leakage and sealing tester is proposed. Utility Model Content

The three-way connector 4 can be used with the air circuit control to switch between positive and negative pressure air circuits, ensuring stable and independent air pressure in both modes.
[0027] The control unit includes connecting pipe 14, manual control valve 15, connecting pipe 2 15, connecting pipe 3 16, tee connector 2 7, connecting pipe 4 18, and tee connector 3 8.

One end of tee connector 2 7 is connected to connecting pipe 4 18. One end of the connecting pipe is connected to the other end of the connecting pipe 18, which is connected to the three-way connector 38. The components are connected in an orderly manner through multiple connecting pipes. The manual control valve 15 can initially control the opening and closing of the positive pressure air path. The precision control valve 26 can achieve pressure fine adjustment to ensure pressure control accuracy. The three-way connector 27 serves as a pressure monitoring and air path transfer node. One side is connected to the pressure gauge 12 to achieve real-time pressure measurement, and the other side transmits the air pressure to the three-way connector 38 through the connecting pipe 18. The three-way connector 38 realizes the reasonable diversion of the air path to the test puncture needle 11 and the discharge unit. The overall structure ensures stable air path transmission and accurate pressure regulation.
[0028] Pressure pipe 17 is connected to one end of tee connector 2 7, transmitting the real-time air pressure at tee connector 2 7 to pressure gauge 12, ensuring that the value displayed on pressure gauge 12 is consistent with the actual air pressure, and providing a basis for operators to fine-tune the pressure through precision control valve 2 6.
[0029] One end of the puncture tube 20 is connected to the test puncture needle 11, and the other end of the puncture tube 20 is connected to one end of the three-way connector 38. The test puncture needle 11 is connected to the three-way connector 38 through the puncture tube 20, so that the positive pressure output by the control unit is transmitted to the inside of the test piece.
[0030] The discharge unit includes a manual vent valve 9, a discharge pipe 21, a waste liquid tank 10, and a connecting pipe 19. One end of the connecting pipe 19 is connected to the manual vent valve 9, and the manual vent valve 9 is connected to one end of the discharge pipe 21. The other end of the discharge pipe 21 is connected to the waste liquid tank 10. The connecting pipe 19 enables gas-liquid communication between the discharge unit and the control unit. The manual vent valve 9 can be manually controlled to release gas. The discharge pipe 21 guides the gas and liquid to flow into the waste liquid tank 10 in a directional manner to prevent waste liquid from polluting the equipment and the environment, while also facilitating the subsequent cleaning and maintenance of the waste liquid tank 10.
[0031] The end of the connecting pipe 19 furthest from the manual vent valve 9 is connected to one end of the three-way connector 38. By allowing the waste liquid from the three-way connector 38 to be introduced into the discharge unit through the connecting pipe 19, the waste liquid after the test can be discharged in a timely manner. The three-way connector 38 also provides functional support for testing, pressure relief and liquid discharge.
[0032] The specific implementation method is as follows: For the positive pressure test, air compressor 1 is used as the positive pressure air source. The positive pressure gas is transmitted through positive pressure pipe 22. At this time, the test instrument 3 is turned off, and the negative pressure air path is cut off. The gas enters the control unit via a three-way connector 4 installed on the positive pressure pipe 22. The gas first connects to manual control valve 5 through connecting pipe 14, which controls the opening and closing of the positive pressure air path. Then, it enters precision control valve 6 through connecting pipe 2 15. The operator can fine-tune the air pressure through precision control valve 2 6 to ensure the pressure meets the test requirements. The adjusted gas is then delivered to three-way connector 7 through connecting pipe 3 16, where it connects to the three-way connector. The pressure tube 17 connected to the first two 7 will transmit the real-time air pressure to the pressure gauge 12, so that the operator can monitor and further calibrate the pressure in real time. After the pressure monitoring is completed, the gas enters the three-way connector 8 through the connecting tube 18, and then is transmitted to the test puncture needle 11 through the puncture tube 20. After the test puncture needle 11 pierces the test piece, positive pressure is introduced into the test piece to test its sealing performance. After the test is completed, the manual vent valve 9 of the venting unit is opened, and the gas in the test piece and the waste liquid that may be generated will be discharged into the waste liquid tank 10 through the connecting tube 19 and the venting tube 21, completing the positive pressure test process. During the negative pressure test, the manual control valve 5 is closed, and the positive pressure air circuit is disconnected. The tester 3, in conjunction with the negative pressure logic of the air compressor 1, establishes an environment lower than atmospheric pressure. The tester 3 sets or maintains the air pressure, and the air compressor 1 starts to provide an air source to the tester 3. The tester 3 controls the negative pressure, and through the negative pressure pipe 13, it controls the vacuum tank 2 containing water to become a vacuum state and then a negative pressure state. The test piece is placed in the vacuum tank 2. The sealing performance of the test piece is then determined by observing the expansion of the test piece and the recovery of the sample shape after the vacuum is released.
[0033] It should be understood that numerous specific implementation decisions can be made during the development of any practical implementation, such as in any engineering or design project. Such development efforts may be complex and time-consuming, but for those skilled in the art who benefit from this disclosure, the development effort will be a routine work of design, manufacturing, and production without requiring much experimentation.
