The aforementioned solution solves the problem that existing rear axle housing airtightness leak testers have poor versatility because the air injection port size of the air injection head is fixed and cannot be adjusted for different rear axle housings.

[0021] In this specific embodiment, the frame 101 is used to support the assembly of the leak testing component.

[0022] The lifting component 102 is disposed on one side of the frame 101; the water storage tank 103 is fixedly connected to the lifting component 102 and located on one side of the lifting component 102; the support frame 104 is fixedly connected to the frame 101 and located on one side of the frame 101; the clamping mechanism 105 is disposed on one side of the support frame 104; the pushing component 106 is disposed on one side of the frame 101; the mounting base 107 is fixedly connected to the pushing component 106 and located on one side of the pushing component 106; the air injection head 10... 8 is fixedly connected to the mounting base 107 and located on one side of the mounting base 107; the tightening member 109 is disposed on one side of the air injection head 108; the docking member 110 is located on one side of the tightening member 109; the air injection port 111 is fixedly connected to the docking member 110 and located on one side of the docking member 110. The rear axle housing of the vehicle is placed on the clamping mechanism 105, and then the rear axle housing of the vehicle is fixed by the clamping mechanism 105. The clamping mechanism 105 is prior art and can be used in accordance with publication number CN221173. The 760U patent document describes a mounting plate, groove, rotating rod, driving bevel gear, motor housing, motor, first slide groove, positive and negative threaded screw, driven bevel gear, first slider, and clamping block. Then, based on the corresponding automotive rear axle housing model, a suitable size air inlet 111 is selected. The mating part 110 is inserted into the tightening part 109, and the tightening part 109 is then twisted to fix the mating part 110, completing the assembly of the air inlet 111 and the air inlet head 108. Subsequently, the pushing part 106 is controlled to drive the air inlet head 108. 8. Insert the air inlet 111 into the air inlet of the rear axle housing of the vehicle. Connect the air inlet head 108 to the air supply equipment, fill the water tank 103 with water, and control the lifting component 102 to bring the water tank 103 close to the rear axle housing of the vehicle so that it is submerged. Then start the air supply equipment to observe whether air bubbles appear in the water to complete the airtightness test of the rear axle housing. This solves the problem that the existing rear axle housing airtightness test machine has a fixed air inlet size, so it cannot be adjusted according to different rear axle housings, resulting in poor versatility.

[0023] Secondly, the lifting cylinder 112 is fixedly connected to the frame 101 and located on one side of the frame 101; the lifting block 113 is fixedly connected to the output end of the lifting cylinder 112 and to the water tank 103, and located on one side of the lifting cylinder 112, controlling the lifting cylinder 112 to drive the lifting block 113 to move the water tank 103 up and down, so as to immerse the rear axle housing of the car during the airtightness test.

[0024] Furthermore, the assembly frame 114 is fixedly connected to the frame 101 and located on one side of the frame 101; the electric telescopic cylinder 115 is fixedly connected to the assembly frame 114 and located on one side of the assembly frame 114; the push block 116 is fixedly connected to the output end of the electric telescopic cylinder 115 and fixedly connected to the mounting base 107 and located on one side of the electric telescopic cylinder 115. The assembly frame 114 is used to assemble the electric telescopic cylinder 115 and control the electric telescopic cylinder 115 to drive the push block 116 to move the mounting base 107 horizontally, so that the air injection port 111 on the air injection head 108 is connected to the air inlet of the rear axle housing of the vehicle.

[0025] In addition, the connector 117 is connected to the gas injection head 108 and is located on one side of the gas injection head 108; the tightening bolt 118 is rotatably connected to the connector 117 and is located on one side of the connector 117. The connector 117 is used to insert into the docking part 110. Then, by twisting the tightening bolt 118 to connect with the docking part 110, the gas injection port 111 can be assembled.

[0026] Furthermore, the connector 119 is connected to the air inlet 111 and is located on one side of the air inlet 111; the external thread 120 is fixedly connected to the connector 119 and is located on one side of the connector 119; the inner ring of the connector 119 has a sealing ring for insertion with the connector 117; then, by turning the tightening bolt 118 to thread it into the external thread 120, the assembly of the air inlet 111 can be completed.

[0027] When using this utility model, the rear axle housing of the automobile is placed on the clamping mechanism 105, and then the rear axle housing of the automobile is fixed by the clamping mechanism 105. Then, according to the corresponding automobile rear axle housing model, the air inlet 111 of appropriate size is selected, and the connector 119 is inserted into the connector 117. Then, the tightening bolt 118 is turned to connect with the external thread 120, completing the assembly of the air inlet 111 and the air inlet head 108. Subsequently, the electric telescopic cylinder 115 is controlled to drive the push block 116 to move the air inlet head 108 to open the air inlet. 111 is inserted into the air inlet of the rear axle housing of the car. The air injection head 108 is connected to the air supply equipment to fill the water tank 103 with water. The lifting cylinder 112 is controlled to drive the lifting block 113 to lift the water tank 103, bringing the water tank 103 close to the rear axle housing of the car so that it is submerged. Then the air supply equipment is started to observe whether air bubbles appear in the water to complete the airtightness test of the rear axle housing. This solves the problem that the existing rear axle housing airtightness test machine has a fixed air injection port size, which cannot be adjusted according to different rear axle housings, resulting in poor versatility.
