Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of airtightness testing of compressor cylinder head assembly, and more specifically, to an airtightness testing device for piston compressor cylinder head assembly. Background Technology

[0002] In the manufacturing process of reciprocating compressors, the airtightness of the pump body is a core indicator that directly affects the overall performance, operational stability, and service life of the compressor. Therefore, testing the airtightness of the pump body is an indispensable and crucial step in the production process. Currently, the industry generally adopts a technical solution for testing the airtightness of reciprocating compressor pump bodies: "After the pump body is assembled, a full inspection of the pump body is carried out in the volumetric testing process on the production line." That is, after all the components constituting the pump body (including the cylinder head assembly) are assembled, the airtightness of the entire pump body is uniformly tested through the volumetric testing process to determine whether the pump body meets the quality standards.

[0003] However, long-term production practice has revealed significant technical deficiencies in existing testing methods, making it difficult to meet the needs of efficient and accurate production quality control. Specific problems are as follows: Leak location is difficult, and troubleshooting efficiency is low: Existing solutions can only detect whether the overall airtightness of the assembled pump body is up to standard, but cannot further pinpoint the specific leak location of a substandard pump body. Since the pump body is assembled from multiple components such as the cylinder head assembly, piston, and cylinder, poor airtightness may originate from sealing defects in the cylinder head assembly itself, or from machining errors or assembly gaps in other components. This necessitates that workers disassemble the pump body and check each component individually, which not only increases additional manpower and time costs but may also cause secondary damage to components during disassembly, seriously affecting production efficiency.

[0004] Batch defects in cylinder head assemblies led to a sharp drop in production first-pass yield and significant losses. In actual production, it was found that the main reason for the poor airtightness of the pump body was improper machining of parts within the cylinder head assembly (such as insufficient flatness of the sealing surface and deviations in the size of the air passage holes). However, the existing solution did not include a separate airtightness testing step before the cylinder head assembly was assembled onto the production line; instead, it was assembled with other components into the pump body and then tested as a whole. If a batch of cylinder head assemblies has batch sealing defects, a large number of the assembled pump bodies from that batch will fail the volumetric testing process. All defective pump bodies must be reworked or scrapped, resulting in a significant waste of raw materials and production costs, production line shutdowns, production delays, and a significant reduction in the overall production first-pass yield, severely impacting the company's production efficiency and delivery cycle.

[0007] Furthermore, a sealing gasket is provided on the end face of the cover plate near the cylinder head support plate, and a buckle is provided at the top of the cover plate.
