Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of airtightness testing technology, specifically to an airtightness testing device. Background Technology

[0002] In the existing technology, the air tightness test results of the oil seal of the reducer are inaccurate, and different air tightness testers are required for different test modes, which leads to problems such as complicated procedures and long working time when switching test modes. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, the present disclosure provides an airtightness testing device, which on the one hand makes the test results more accurate and reliable, and on the other hand simplifies the testing process and reduces the testing time.

[0004] An airtightness testing device according to an embodiment of this disclosure is used to test the airtightness of a speed reducer. The speed reducer includes: an inner bearing ring, an outer bearing ring, and a first oil seal. The outer bearing ring is located circumferentially outside the inner bearing ring and is spaced apart from the inner bearing ring to form a groove. The first oil seal is located in the groove. The speed reducer has a mounting cavity that communicates with the groove. The device includes: a first pressure plate and a second pressure plate. The first pressure plate and the second pressure plate are arranged opposite to each other along a first direction and are movable relative to each other along the first direction. The first pressure plate and the second pressure plate are adapted to clamp the speed reducer axially to seal the openings at both ends of the speed reducer. The second pressure plate has a gas channel, which communicates with the mounting cavity through the opening; an inflation module and / or an extraction module, wherein the inflation module is used to inflate the mounting cavity through the gas channel, and the extraction module is used to extract air from the mounting cavity through the gas channel; a sealing cover assembly is connected to one of the first pressure plate or the second pressure plate, and is adapted to seal against the outer ring and the inner ring of the bearing, wherein the sealing cover assembly is adapted to be located on one side of the groove along the axial direction of the reducer, and together with the outer ring, the inner ring and the first oil seal, forms a detection cavity, and the sealing cover assembly is provided with a pressure sensor.

A pressure sensor is provided on the sealing cover assembly. In both the vacuum test mode and the inflation test mode, the airtightness of the reducer can be obtained based on the pressure change in the testing chamber. On the one hand, because the testing chamber is small in volume, it is sensitive to pressure changes, resulting in more accurate measurements. Simultaneously, the testing chamber can directly detect the leakage from the first oil seal, avoiding the influence of leaks from other parts on the test results, making the test results more accurate and reliable. On the other hand, since the pressure change in the testing chamber is directly detected, there is no need to change the airtightness testing instrument when changing the testing mode, simplifying the testing process and reducing testing time.

[0006] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the groove has a slot facing the first pressure plate, the sealing cover assembly is detachably connected to the first pressure plate, and the airtightness detection device further includes a driving member connected to the first pressure plate to drive the first pressure plate to move.

[0012] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the bearing inner ring has a fastening hole that extends through the bearing inner ring along the bearing axial direction for installing a fastener. The head of the fastener is located on the side of the fastening hole facing the second pressure plate, and the projection of the end of the fastening hole facing the first pressure plate onto the first sealing ring falls entirely on the first sealing ring.

[0013] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the second pressure plate has a limiting protrusion on the side facing the first pressure plate, the limiting protrusion having a communicating channel, and the gas channel communicating with the communicating channel.

[0021] In this disclosure, the terms "exemplary" or "for example" are used to indicate that something is an example, illustration, or description. Any embodiment or design described as "exemplary" or "for example" in this disclosure should not be construed as being more preferred or advantageous than other embodiments or designs. Rather, the use of terms such as "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present the relevant concepts in a specific manner.

[0022] In the embodiments of this disclosure, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature.

[0023] In the description of embodiments of this disclosure, the term "at least one" means one or more, and "more than one" means two or more. "At least one of the following" or similar expressions refer to any combination of these items, including any combination of a single item or a plurality of items. For example, at least one of a, b, or c can represent: a, b, c, ab, ac, bc, or abc, where a, b, and c can be single or multiple.

[0024] In the description of embodiments of this disclosure, the term "and / or" refers to and covers any and all possible combinations of one or more of the associated listed items. The term "and / or" describes an association relationship between related objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B can represent: A alone, A and B simultaneously, or B alone. Additionally, the character " / " in this disclosure generally indicates that the preceding and following related objects have an "or" relationship.

[0025] In the description of the embodiments of the present disclosure, unless otherwise explicitly specified and defined, the terms "mounting", "connected" and "connection" shall be understood in a broad sense. For example, "connection" may be a detachable connection or a non-detachable connection; it may be a direct connection, or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium.

[0026] As used herein, "perpendicular" and "equal" include the stated case and a case similar to the stated case, and the range of the similar case is within an acceptable deviation range, wherein the acceptable deviation range is determined, for example, by a person skilled in the art in consideration of the measurement in discussion and the error related to the measurement of a specific quantity (i.e., limitations of the measurement system). For example, "perpendicular" includes absolutely perpendicular and approximately perpendicular, wherein the acceptable deviation range for approximately perpendicular may also be a deviation within 10°, for example. "Equal" includes absolutely equal and approximately equal, wherein within the acceptable deviation range for approximately equal, for example, the difference between two equal components may be less than or equal to 10% of any one of the two components.

[0027] In the related art, a speed reducer, such as a harmonic speed reducer, comprises: a bearing inner ring, a bearing outer ring and an oil seal. The bearing outer ring is arranged on the circumferential outer side of the bearing inner ring and spaced apart from the bearing inner ring to form a groove, and the oil seal is arranged in the groove. The arrangement of the oil seal can play a role in preventing oil leakage, therefore, it is very important to detect the sealing performance of the oil seal.

[0028] In the prior art, generally, the whole speed reducer is fully sealed by a sealing tool to ensure that no air leaks from positions other than the oil seal position, and then inflation and extraction are performed through an inflation and / or extraction component - an air cylinder. For example, when the air cylinder extends, exhaust testing is achieved with the bottom tool as an air outlet; when the air cylinder retracts, inflation testing is achieved with the bottom tool as an air inlet. The sealing performance of the oil seal is detected by an air tightness detector, and the same test is performed with a standard bearing. If the pressure difference is within an allowable range, the oil seal is qualified; if the pressure difference is too large, it indicates that the gas leakage is serious. On one hand, the internal space of the speed reducer is large, so the air pressure change is not easy to be detected, and if air leaks from other parts of the speed reducer, it will also affect the sealing detection of the oil seal, leading to increased measurement error.

[0029] On the other hand, different air tightness detectors are used for extraction and inflation. For example, a vacuum gauge is required for extraction, while a pressure gauge is required for inflation. Therefore, in the two test conditions, the air tightness detector needs to be replaced, which results in complex procedures and increased working hours.

[0030] According to the airtightness testing device of this disclosure, the sealing cover assembly is adapted to seal against the outer ring and inner ring of the bearing. The sealing cover assembly is adapted to be located on one side of the groove along the axial direction of the reducer, and together with the outer ring, inner ring, and first oil seal, forms a testing chamber. The sealing cover assembly is equipped with a pressure sensor. In the air extraction test mode and the air filling test mode, the airtightness of the reducer can be obtained based on the pressure change in the testing chamber. On the one hand, because the testing chamber is small in volume, it is sensitive to pressure changes, and the measurement is more accurate. At the same time, the testing chamber can directly detect the leakage from the first oil seal, which can avoid the influence of leakage from other parts on the test results, making the test results more accurate and reliable. On the other hand, since the air pressure change in the testing chamber is directly detected, there is no need to change the airtightness tester when changing the testing mode, which simplifies the testing process and reduces the testing time.

[0031] The airtightness detection device 10 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0032] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the airtightness testing device 10 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a first pressure plate 1, a second pressure plate 2, a sealing cover assembly 3, an inflation module and / or an air extraction module.

[0033] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the air tightness testing device 10 is used to test the air tightness of the reducer 20. The reducer 20 includes: an inner bearing ring 201, an outer bearing ring 202, and a first oil seal 203. The outer bearing ring 202 is located circumferentially outside the inner bearing ring 201 and is spaced apart from the inner bearing ring 201 to form a groove 213. The first oil seal 203 is located in the groove 213. The reducer 20 has a mounting cavity 211, which is connected to the groove 213.

[0034] It should be noted that the reducer 20 also includes a rigid wheel 205, which is located on one side of the bearing inner ring 201 along the axis of the reducer 20 and is connected to the bearing inner ring 201. The bearing inner ring 201, the bearing outer ring 202 and the rigid wheel 205 define an installation cavity 211.

[0035] Additionally, please see Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the reducer 20 may also include a front cover 207 and a rear cover 208. The front cover 207 covers one end of the bearing inner ring 201 and the bearing outer ring 202 along the axis of the reducer 20, and the rear cover 208 covers the other end of the bearing inner ring 201 and the bearing outer ring 202 along the axis of the reducer 20. The bearing inner ring 201, the bearing outer ring 202, the front cover 207 and the rear cover 208 define a mounting cavity 211.

[0036] For further information, please refer back to [link / reference]. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first pressure plate 1 and the second pressure plate 2 are along the first direction (e.g., Figure 3 The first pressure plate 1 and the second pressure plate 2 are arranged relative to each other in the first direction and can move relative to each other in the first direction. The first pressure plate 1 and the second pressure plate 2 are adapted to clamp the reducer 20 along the axial direction of the reducer 20 to block the openings at both ends of the reducer 20 in the axial direction. This achieves the sealing of the mounting cavity 211 and ensures that the leakage point is located at the first oil seal 203, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of the detection.

[0037] The first pressure plate 1 and the second pressure plate 2 are arranged opposite to each other along the first direction and can move relative to each other along the first direction. This can be that the first pressure plate 1 is fixed and the second pressure plate 2 can move along the first direction, or the second pressure plate 2 is fixed and the first pressure plate 1 can move along the first direction, or both the first pressure plate 1 and the second pressure plate 2 can move along the first direction.

[0038] For further information, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the second pressure plate 2 has a gas channel 21, which is connected to the mounting cavity 211 through an opening; the inflation module is used to inflate the mounting cavity 211 through the gas channel 21, and the degassing module is used to degas the mounting cavity 211 through the gas channel 21.

[0039] It should be noted that the inflation module and the deflation module can be integrated into one unit, such as a cylinder. Deflating the cylinder achieves deflation, and pushing it in achieves inflation. Therefore, there is no need to replace the modules to accommodate two different testing modes (inflation test and deflation test). Of course, this disclosure is not limited to this; the inflation module and the deflation module can also be separate.

[0040] For further information, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the sealing cover assembly 3 is connected to one of the first pressure plate 1 or the second pressure plate 2, and is adapted to seal against the outer ring 202 and the inner ring 201 of the bearing. The sealing cover assembly 3 is adapted to be located on one side of the groove 213 along the axial direction of the reducer 20, and together with the outer ring 202, the inner ring 201 and the first oil seal 203, it forms a detection cavity 36. A pressure sensor is provided on the sealing cover assembly 3. Since both the outer ring 202 and the inner ring 201 of the bearing are annular, the formed detection cavity 36 is also annular, that is, the sealing cover assembly 3 is annular.

[0041] Understandably, in the inflation test mode, the inflation module inflates the mounting cavity 211 through the gas channel 21. After the air pressure in the detection cavity 36 stabilizes, the air pressure in the detection cavity 36 is obtained through the air pressure sensor. If the air pressure increases, it indicates gas leakage. If the air pressure increases to a certain value, it indicates that the air tightness is not up to standard. If the air pressure does not change, it indicates that the sealing is good.

[0042] Similarly, in the air extraction test mode, the air extraction module extracts air from the installation cavity 211 through the gas channel 21. After the air pressure in the detection cavity 36 stabilizes, the air pressure in the detection cavity 36 is obtained through the air pressure sensor. If the air pressure decreases, it indicates gas leakage. If the air pressure decreases to a certain value, it indicates that the air tightness is not up to standard. If the air pressure does not change, it indicates that the air tightness is good.

[0043] Meanwhile, on the one hand, because the detection chamber 36, formed by the sealing cover assembly 3, the outer ring 202 of the bearing, the inner ring 201 of the bearing, and the first oil seal 203, has a small volume, it is sensitive to changes in air pressure, making the measurement more accurate. Furthermore, since the detection chamber 36 can directly detect the leakage from the first oil seal 203, it avoids the influence of leaks from other parts on the test results, thus making the test results more accurate and reliable. On the other hand, because the air pressure change in the detection chamber 36 is directly detected, there is no need to replace the airtightness tester when changing the test mode, simplifying the testing process and reducing testing time.

[0044] For further information, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the airtightness testing device 10 also includes a test bench 5, on which the first pressure plate 1 and the second pressure plate 2 are disposed, thereby realizing the stable testing of the reducer 20. It should be noted that the first direction can be the up and down direction. For example, in this disclosure, the second pressure plate 2 is located below the first pressure plate 1, but this disclosure is not limited to this. The first direction can also be the left and right direction, etc.

[0045] According to the air tightness testing device 10 of this disclosure, the sealing cover assembly 3 is adapted to seal and fit with the outer ring 202 and the inner ring 201 of the bearing. The sealing cover assembly 3 is adapted to be located on one side of the groove 213 along the axial direction of the reducer 20, and together with the outer ring 202, the inner ring 201, and the first oil seal 203, it forms a testing chamber 36. The sealing cover assembly 3 is equipped with a pressure sensor. In the air extraction test mode and the air filling test mode, the air tightness of the reducer 20 can be obtained based on the pressure change in the testing chamber 36. On the one hand, because the testing chamber 36 is small in volume, it is sensitive to pressure changes and the measurement is more accurate. At the same time, the testing chamber 36 can directly detect the leakage from the first oil seal 203, which can avoid the test results being affected by air leakage from other parts, making the test results more accurate and reliable. On the other hand, since the air pressure change in the testing chamber 36 is directly detected, it is not necessary to change the air tightness tester when changing the test mode, which simplifies the testing process and reduces the testing time.

[0046] Please refer to some embodiments of this disclosure. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the groove 213 has a slot facing the first pressure plate 1, the sealing cover assembly 3 is detachably connected to the first pressure plate 1, and the airtightness testing device 10 further includes a driving member 4, which is connected to the first pressure plate 1 to drive the first pressure plate 1 to move.

[0047] It is understood that the first pressure plate 1 is moved by the driving component 4, wherein the first pressure plate 1 moves toward or away from the second pressure plate 2. For example, in this disclosure, the driving component 4 drives the first pressure plate 1 to move toward the second pressure plate 2, so that the first pressure plate 1 and the second pressure plate 2 can work together to press the two ends of the reducer 20 axially, thereby sealing the openings at both ends of the reducer 20 axially, further ensuring that the air leakage is only at the first oil seal 203, and improving the reliability of the test.

[0048] In addition, the sealing cover assembly 3 is detachably connected to the first pressure plate 1. As the driving component 4 drives the first pressure plate 1 to move toward the second pressure plate 2 to press the two ends of the reducer 20 in the axial direction, the sealing cover assembly 3 can also press the outer ring 202 and the inner ring 201 of the bearing under the action of the driving component 4. This prevents gas from leaking from the gap between the outer ring 202 and the sealing cover assembly 3 and the gap between the inner ring 201 and the sealing cover assembly 3, further improving the sealing performance of the detection chamber 36, thereby further improving the accuracy and reliability of the detection.

[0049] Meanwhile, the driving component 4 can be connected to the first pressure plate 1, or there may be no connection between them. For example, in this disclosure, when the first direction is up and down and the driving component 4 is above the first pressure plate 1, the driving component 4 does not need to be connected to the first pressure plate 1 to ensure that the first pressure plate 1 is stably placed on the test table 5. However, when the first direction is left and right or front and back, the driving component 4 needs to be connected to the first pressure plate 1 in order to ensure that the first pressure plate 1 does not fall off the test table 5 under the action of gravity.

[0050] For further information, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the airtightness testing device 10 also includes a pressure equalizing plate. The output shaft of the drive unit 4 is connected to the pressure equalizing plate. The test bench 5 has a guide rail extending along the first direction (the guide rail can be in the form of a guide rod or a guide groove). The pressure equalizing plate is movably disposed on the guide rail along the first direction. The arrangement of the pressure equalizing plate allows the pressure to be distributed more evenly on the first pressure plate 1, thereby further improving the sealing effect on the two ends of the reducer 20 in the axial direction.

[0051] It should be noted that the driving component 4 can be a cylinder, but this disclosure is not limited to this. The driving component 4 can also be other structures, such as a motor, a hydraulic cylinder, etc.

[0052] Please refer to some embodiments of this disclosure. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the end of the sealing cover assembly 3 facing the first oil seal 203 has a recessed detection groove 35. The detection cavity 36 includes the detection groove 35, and the pressure sensor is disposed within the detection groove 35. It can be understood that the formation of the detection groove 35 increases the volume of the detection cavity 36, thereby accommodating a certain amount of gas and preventing the pressure sensor from malfunctioning and the sealing of the sealing cover assembly 3 from failing due to excessive pressure. Furthermore, in a plane perpendicular to the first direction, the outer contour of the vertical projection of the detection groove 35 is also annular.

[0053] Please refer to some embodiments of this disclosure. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in a plane perpendicular to the first direction, the vertical projection of the groove 213 lies within the vertical projection of the detection groove 35. This allows gas leaking from the first oil seal 203 to completely enter the detection groove 35, and ensures that gas drawn from the first oil seal 203 into the mounting cavity 211 originates solely from the detection cavity 36, further improving the sealing performance of the detection cavity 36 and enhancing the reliability and accuracy of the detection.

[0054] Please refer to some embodiments of this disclosure. Figure 1 , Figure 2and Figure 3 As shown, the sealing cover assembly 3 includes: a sealing cover body 31, a connecting rod 33, a sleeve 32, and a fixing structure 34.

[0055] The sealing cover body 31 is adapted to seal and fit with the bearing outer ring 202 and the bearing inner ring 201, and together with the bearing outer ring 202, the bearing inner ring 201 and the first oil seal 203, it forms a detection cavity 36; the sleeve 32 is connected to the first pressure plate 1, and the sleeve 32 has a movable space extending in the first direction, which passes through the end of the sleeve 32 opposite to the first pressure plate 1; one end of the connecting rod 33 is connected to the sealing cover body 31, and the other end is movably disposed in the movable space in the first direction; the fixing structure 34 is disposed on the sleeve 32 for locking the sleeve 32 and the connecting rod 33.

[0056] It is understandable that through the above settings, the sealing cover assembly 3 can be extended and retracted along the first direction, i.e., its length is adjustable, so as to adapt to the reducer 20 with different installation positions of the first oil seal 203 along the first direction, so as to achieve better sealing and fit between the sealing cover body 31 and the outer ring 202 and the inner ring 201 of the bearing, thereby further improving the sealing performance of the detection cavity 36, and further improving the reliability and accuracy of the detection.

[0057] Please refer to some embodiments of this disclosure. Figure 1 As shown, the connecting rod 33 has multiple positioning holes 331 spaced apart along the first direction, and the fixing structure 34 is adapted to mate with one of the positioning holes 331. This achieves telescoping (length adjustment) along the first direction, thus adapting to different installation positions of the first oil seal 203 along the first direction of the reducer 20. This allows for better sealing and fit between the sealing cover body 31 and the outer ring 202 and inner ring 201 of the bearing, further improving the sealing performance of the detection chamber 36, and thus further improving the reliability and accuracy of the detection. The fixing structure 34 can be a threaded fastener 215 or a pin, etc.

[0058] Please refer to some embodiments of this disclosure. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a first sealing groove 11 is provided on the end face of the first pressure plate 1 facing the second pressure plate 2. The first sealing groove 11 is adapted to be located on the outer periphery of the opening. A second sealing groove 22 is provided on the end face of the second pressure plate 2 facing the first pressure plate 1. The second sealing groove 22 is adapted to be located on the outer periphery of the opening. The airtightness testing device 10 also includes: a first sealing ring 6 and a second sealing ring 7. The first sealing ring 6 is disposed in the first sealing groove 11; the second sealing ring 7 is disposed in the second sealing groove 22.

[0059] It is understandable that by setting the first sealing groove 11 and the second sealing groove 22, and respectively setting the first sealing ring 6 and the second sealing ring 7 therein, the sealing performance of the first pressure plate 1 and the second pressure plate 2 when pressing the reducer 20 can be effectively enhanced. This can better prevent gas from leaking from the contact surface of the first pressure plate 1 and the second pressure plate 2, thereby further ensuring the reliability and accuracy of the test results. The first sealing ring 6 and the second sealing ring 7 can be selected from different materials and specifications according to actual use requirements to meet the sealing requirements under different working conditions.

[0060] Please refer to some embodiments of this disclosure. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the bearing inner ring 201 has a fastening hole 214 that passes through the bearing inner ring 201 along the bearing axial direction for installing a fastener 215. The head of the fastener 215 is located on the side of the fastening hole 214 facing the second pressure plate 2, and the projection of the end of the fastening hole 214 facing the first pressure plate 1 onto the first sealing ring 6 falls completely on the first sealing ring 6.

[0061] It is understood that the reducer 20 also includes a flexible wheel 206, which is located in the mounting cavity 211 and on one side of the bearing inner ring 201 in the axial direction. The flexible wheel 206 is connected to the bearing inner ring 201 by fasteners 215. The projection of the end of the fastening hole 214 facing the first pressure plate 1 onto the first sealing ring 6 falls completely on the first sealing ring 6, thereby achieving the sealing of the fastening hole 214 by the first sealing ring 6, thus preventing gas leakage from the fastening hole 214, thereby further improving the sealing performance of the first pressure plate 1 and the second pressure plate 2 when pressing the reducer 20.

[0062] Please refer to some embodiments of this disclosure. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the second pressure plate 2 has a gas channel 21, and the side of the second pressure plate 2 facing the first pressure plate 1 has a limiting protrusion 24. The limiting protrusion 24 has a connecting channel, and the gas channel 21 and the connecting channel are connected.

[0063] It is understandable that at least a portion of the limiting protrusion 24 extends into the mounting cavity 211, and the rigid wheel 205 is arranged around the limiting protrusion 24. Thus, the setting of the limiting protrusion 24 serves two purposes: firstly, it positions and limits the reducer 20, thereby ensuring that the reducer 20 is installed accurately and reliably on the second pressure plate 2; secondly, it allows gas to better enter the mounting cavity 211, preventing gas from being discharged to the outside.

[0064] Please continue reading Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, when the reducer 20 includes a cam 209, the cam 209 extends through both ends of the reducer 20 along its axial direction. At least a portion of the cam 209 is located in the mounting cavity 211. The cam 209 has a mounting channel 210 extending through it along its axial direction. A limiting protrusion 24 is located in the mounting channel 210 and engages with the inner wall of the mounting channel 210 to achieve limiting installation of the reducer 20. Simultaneously, the end of the cam 209 facing the first pressure plate 1 is not completely sealed to the first pressure plate 1, and the end of the cam 209 facing the second pressure plate 2 is not completely sealed to the second pressure plate 2, thereby achieving communication between the mounting channel 210 and the mounting cavity 211.

[0065] For some embodiments of this disclosure, please refer back to the previous section. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the end face of the second pressure plate 2 facing the first pressure plate 1 has an annular groove 23, which surrounds the limiting protrusion 24. It can be understood that the end of the rigid wheel 205 facing the second pressure plate 2 is located in the annular groove 23. Through the interaction of the annular groove 23 and the limiting protrusion 24, the positioning and limiting effect on the reducer 20 is further improved, thereby ensuring that the reducer 20 is accurately and reliably installed on the second pressure plate 2.

[0066] For further information, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the second sealing ring 7 is located on the bottom wall of the annular groove 23. The second sealing ring 7 is used to ensure that the reducer 20 is tightly fitted with the first pressure plate 1 when the first pressure plate 1 and the second pressure plate 2 are pressed together, thereby further enhancing the sealing effect at the mounting cavity 211, preventing gas from leaking from the gap between the first pressure plate 1 and the second pressure plate 2, and ensuring the accuracy of the air tightness test.

[0067] Please refer to some embodiments of this disclosure. Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the end of the second pressure plate 2 facing the first pressure plate 1 has a limiting groove 25, and a limiting protrusion 24 is provided on the bottom wall of the limiting groove 25. It can be understood that the end of the cam 209 facing the second pressure plate 2 is located in the limiting groove 25. Thus, through the interaction between the limiting protrusion 24 and the limiting groove 25, the installation stability of the reducer 20 on the second pressure plate 2 is further improved.

[0068] In the description of this specification, specific features, structures, materials or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples without contradicting each other.

[0069] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this disclosure, and are not intended to limit them. Although this disclosure has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this disclosure.
