During the air tightness test, the sealing assembly 100 is tightly attached to the membrane electrode 1, and during the test, the elastic assembly 200 is kept in a compressed state.

When the air tightness is detected, the sealing ring 120 is tightly attached to the membrane electrode 1; at the end of the test, the spring plunger 210 pushes the membrane electrode 1 to move in a direction away from the pressing plate 110, so that the membrane electrode 1 is separated from the sealing ring 120.
As shown in fig. 5, the pressure plate 110 has a test gas port 111, and the seal ring 120 surrounds the test gas port 111.
Specifically, the gas flows through the test gas port 111 to perform the gas tightness test, and the seal ring 120 surrounds the test gas port 111 and is sealed between the test gas port 111 and the membrane electrode 1 by the seal ring 120.
