Aiming at the technical problems of the background technology, the utility model provides an inert gas recovery device for detecting the tightness of a battery. As shown in fig. 1, the inert gas recovery apparatus provided by the present utility model generally includes a sealed chamber 10, a vacuum pump 30, an on-off valve 40, and a high pressure tank 50. Specifically, the sealed cavity 10 is used for placing the battery 100, and the battery 100 is filled with inert gas. The inert gas may be charged when the tightness test is performed. The vacuum pump 30 is connected to the sealed cavity 10, and the vacuum pump 30 is used for pumping out inert gas in the battery 100 and the sealed cavity 10 after the tightness detection of the battery 100 is completed. The switch valve 40 is disposed on a connection line between the sealed cavity 10 and the vacuum pump 30, the switch valve 40 is used for opening and closing a corresponding connection line, and when the corresponding connection line is opened, the vacuum pump 30 can pump out inert gas corresponding to the connection line. The high-pressure tank 50 is connected with the vacuum pump 30, the high-pressure tank 50 is used for storing the inert gas pumped by the vacuum pump 30 at high pressure, and the inert gas in the high-pressure tank 50 can be further used for detecting the tightness of the battery 100. Wherein the on-off valve 40 may be a T-valve.

The inert gas recovery device further includes a detector 60 and a three-way valve 20. The detector 60 is used for detecting the sealed cavity 10 and the inert gas content in the pipeline connecting the sealed cavity 10 and the detector 60. Three ends of the three-way valve are respectively connected with the sealed cavity 10, the vacuum pump 30 and the detector 60.
In the process of detecting the content of the inert gas, the three-way valve 20 is firstly communicated with the vacuum pump 30 and the sealed cavity 10, the sealed cavity 10 is vacuumized, the sealed cavity 10 is kept in a vacuum environment, then the sealed cavity 10 is communicated with the detector 60, after the detector 60 detects the inert gas, the connection between the sealed cavity 10 and the detector 60 is closed, and the inert gas in the sealed cavity 10 and the pipeline is absorbed through the vacuum pump 30. After a period of time, there is a situation that whether recovery is completely unknown, at this time, connection of the vacuum pump 30 and the sealed cavity 10 can be blocked, and the sealed cavity 10 and the detector 60 are communicated, whether recovery is complete is judged through data of the detector 60, if so, recovery is completed, otherwise, connection of the vacuum pump 30 and the sealed cavity 10 is continued, and the sealed cavity 10 and the detector 60 are blocked, and the above-mentioned processes are circulated until recovery is completed.

The inert gas pumped by the vacuum pump 30 is stored by the transfer tank 70, and then the inert gas is stored in the high-pressure tank 50 after being pressurized by the high-pressure pump 80.
Preferably, in one example of the present utility model, the inert gas recovery device further comprises a battery tightness detection system generally comprising an inert gas source 90, the sealed cavity 10, the vacuum pump 30 and the detector 60.
