Definitions
- the present invention relates to a leakage inspection apparatus and method, and more particularly to a leakage inspection apparatus and method using a leakage element that exhibits a certain amount of leakage under specified temperature and pressure conditions.
- the “leak amount” is generally adopted as a unit indicating the standard. Inside the air leak tester, a pressure drop (a pressure increase in the negative pressure or chamber method, but for the sake of brevity, the pressure method is described here) is measured. Previously, the threshold for pass / fail judgment was often specified by the magnitude of the drop pressure, but even if the same amount of leakage occurred, the pressure drop would change if the workpiece volume was different. Doing is taking root.
- Patent Document 1 Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2012-112752 describes a leak element used for calibration and maintenance of an air leak tester.
- a leak element is connected to the leak detection path.
- the leakage element has a capillary tube.
- the leak element causes a constant leak from the capillary tube under specified temperature and pressure conditions.
- the amount of leakage that flows through a narrow passage changes if the pressure at the entrance and exit of the passage changes. Moreover, it changes even if the temperature changes. That is, if the leak test conditions (mainly pressure and temperature) change, the amount of leak actually flowing changes. Therefore, if the leakage amount under a certain fixed condition is set as a threshold value, it cannot be said that the inspection is performed based on the same criterion when the pressure and temperature change.
- the leak test conditions mainly pressure and temperature
- the Hagen-Poiseuille equation is a typical calculation formula for viscous flow (Equation 1).
- Q Flow rate (Pa ⁇ m 3 / s)
- D Inner diameter of tube (m)
- L Length of conduit (m)
- ⁇ Viscosity coefficient of gas (Pa ⁇ s)
- P 1 Inlet pressure (Pa)
- P 2 outlet pressure (Pa) It is.
- Equation 1 parameters that change the flow rate Q (leakage amount) exist in addition to “holes”, that is, D and L indicating the properties of the sealing defect to be inspected. That is, the viscosity coefficient ⁇ of the gas varies depending on the temperature (the temperature to be inspected and the ambient temperature).
- the inlet pressure P 1 test pressure
- the outlet pressure P 2 atmospheric pressure
- the equation (1) is a calculation of the volume flow rate, and the gas passing through the leak passage is also subjected to the contraction / expansion effect accompanying the temperature change. For this reason, if the determination is made based on the actual flow rate, the inspection standard changes due to the change of the test conditions.
- the present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and the purpose of the present invention is to provide a leak determination method that can obtain the same result even if conditions such as temperature and pressure change if the sealing defect has the same size.
- the purpose is to provide.
- the present invention is a leakage inspection method for inspecting leakage from an inspection object, Based on the actual measured value of the leak from the reference leak hole that generates the specified leak under the specified temperature and pressure, the actual measured value of the leak from the inspection object is used as the virtual defect hole (virtual sealing defect) of the inspection object. It is converted to a hole dimension equivalent value corresponding to the size of the above, and leakage is determined based on the hole dimension equivalent value. The value corresponding to the hole size becomes the same value if the size of the sealing defect is the same even if the test conditions such as temperature and pressure or the environmental conditions are changed. Thereby, the same leak determination result can be obtained.

- the prescribed condition converted leakage value is an example of a hole size equivalent value corresponding to the size of the virtual defect hole (virtual sealing defect) to be inspected, and even if conditions such as temperature and pressure change, If the size is the same, the value is the same. Thereby, the same leak determination result can be obtained.

- the apparatus housing is provided with the leakage measuring means and the processing means, It is preferable that the inspection portion is provided with the arrangement portion to be inspected and the leakage element in proximity to each other.
- the ambient temperature and the external pressure (outlet pressure) of the inspection target and the leaking element can be substantially matched with each other. As a result, the accuracy of the conversion can be improved.
- the leak detection path includes a reference path including a reference container, and a valve means capable of communicating and blocking the reference path and the inspection path,
- the leakage measuring means is a differential pressure gauge provided between the inspection path and the reference path; It is preferable that the inspection path is released to the atmosphere after the measurement by the valve means, while the reference path and thus the reference container is maintained at a test pressure. Thereby, the influence by the adiabatic compression or the like of the reference container can be eliminated. In addition, the following effects are expected to be secondary. (1) At the timing when intense flow occurs in the pressurization or exhaust process, the sensor part is shut off, and at the timing communicating with the sensor, there is almost no flow at the same pressure (test pressure) as the workpiece. Foreign matter does not enter the sensor.
- the master Unlike the work (inspection object), the master (reference container) repeatedly pressurizes and evacuates. For this reason, when used in a humid area, condensed water may accumulate inside, leading to a failure of the tester, but this method can be avoided. (3) Since the stress due to pressurization / exhaust of the differential pressure sensor (leakage measuring means) is reduced, improvement in durability is expected.

- the specified condition-converted leakage value is a value corresponding to a hole size, and even if conditions such as temperature and pressure are changed, the same value is obtained if the size of the sealing defect is the same. Thereby, the same leak determination result can be obtained.
- the prescribed leak value is preferably 0.8 to 1.2 times the leak judgment threshold value of the inspection object. Thereby, the deviation of the variation characteristic with respect to the temperature and pressure between the leakage element and the inspection object can be minimized. It is preferable to use an inspection object that has a leakage close to the leakage threshold value of the leakage element in the specified state.
- the first-order target actual measurement leakage value may be an actual measurement value of a non-defective product inspection target immediately after acquisition of the previous element actual measurement leakage value.
- the conversion coefficient is a coefficient for converting an actual measurement value to a value under a specified condition.
- a conversion coefficient is calculated based on the test pressure, the external pressure and the ambient temperature during the target actual measurement process, and the standard leak hole size coefficient determined by the size of the reference leak hole of the leak element and the specified leak value, It is preferable to convert the target actual measurement leakage value into a specified condition conversion leakage value based on the conversion coefficient.
- a conversion coefficient reflecting environmental conditions such as temperature and pressure at the time of the inspection can be calculated, and the actual measured leakage value can be converted into a prescribed condition conversion leakage value.

すなわち、本発明は、検査対象からの漏れを検査する漏れ検査方法であって、
規定の温度及び圧力下で規定の漏れを発生させる基準漏れ孔からの漏れの実測値に基づいて、前記検査対象からの漏れの実測値を、前記検査対象の仮想欠陥孔(仮想の密封欠陥)の大きさに相当する孔寸法相当値に換算し、前記孔寸法相当値に基づいて漏れ判定することを特徴とする。
前記孔寸法相当値は、温度及び圧力等の試験条件ないしは環境条件が変わっても、密封欠陥の大きさが同じであれば、同じ値になる。これによって、同じ漏れ判定結果を得ることができる。
前記検査対象に接続される検査路を有し、前記検査路から前記検査対象に試験圧を供給する漏れ検出路と、
前記漏れ検出路に設けられ、規定の温度及び圧力(以下「規定条件」と称す)下で規定の漏れ(以下「規定漏れ値」と称す)を発生させる漏れ素子と、
前記漏れ検出路に設けられた漏れ測定手段と、
処理手段と、を備え、前記処理手段が、
前記漏れ測定手段によって前記漏れ素子からの漏れ(以下「素子実測漏れ値」と称す)を実測する素子実測動作と、
前記漏れ測定手段によって前記検査対象からの漏れ(以下「対象実測漏れ値」と称す)を実測する対象実測動作と、
前記素子実測漏れ値に基づいて前記対象実測漏れ値を前記規定条件下での規定条件換算漏れ値に換算し、前記規定条件換算漏れ値に基づいて漏れ判定する判定動作を行なうことを特徴とする。
前記規定条件換算漏れ値は、前記検査対象の仮想欠陥孔(仮想の密封欠陥)の大きさに相当する孔寸法相当値の一例であり、温度及び圧力等の条件が変わっても、密封欠陥の大きさが同じであれば、同じ値になる。これによって、同じ漏れ判定結果を得ることができる。
前記装置筐体には、前記漏れ測定手段及び前記処理手段が設けられ、
前記検査部には、前記検査対象の配置部と前記漏れ素子とが、互いに近接して設けられていることが好ましい。
これによって、検査対象と漏れ素子の周辺温度及び外部圧力(出口圧力)を互いに略一致させることができる。ひいては、前記換算の適確性を高めることができる。
前記漏れ測定手段が、前記検査路と前記基準路との間に設けられた差圧計であり、
前記弁手段によって、前記測定後に前記検査路が大気解放される一方、前記基準路ひいては前記基準容器が試験圧に維持されることが好ましい。
これによって、基準容器の断熱圧縮等による影響を除くことが出来る。さらに、副次的に以下の効果が期待される。
(1) 加圧又は排気工程で激しい流れが生じているタイミングでは、センサ部が遮断されており、センサに連通するタイミングではワークと同圧(テスト圧)で流れがほとんどない状態であるため、センサ内へ異物が侵入することが無い。
(2)マスタ(基準容器)はワーク(検査対象)と異なり加圧と排気を繰り返し行う。そのため、多湿な地域で使用すると、内部に結露した水が溜まることがあり、テスタの故障につながる場合があったが、本方式では回避できる。
(3)差圧センサ(漏れ測定手段)の加圧・排気によるストレスが減るため、耐久性の向上が期待される。
前記漏れ素子又は検査対象の外部圧力を測定する外部圧力測定手段と、
前記漏れ素子又は検査対象の周辺温度を測定する温度測定手段と
を更に備え、前記処理手段が、前記対象実測動作時における前記試験圧測定手段、外部圧力測定手段及び温度測定手段の測定値、並びに前記漏れ素子の基準漏れ孔の大きさによって決まる基準漏れ孔寸法係数及び前記規定漏れ値に基づいて、前記対象実測漏れ値を前記規定条件換算漏れ値に換算する換算係数を算出することが好ましい。
これによって、検査対象の実測時の周辺温度や外部圧力等の環境条件に合わせて、対象実測漏れ値を規定条件換算漏れ値に適確に換算することができる。
規定の温度及び圧力(以下「規定条件」と称す)下で規定の漏れ(以下「規定漏れ値」と称す)を発生させる漏れ素子を、試験圧を供給する漏れ検出路と連通させて、前記漏れ素子からの素子実測漏れ値を実測する素子実測工程と、
検査対象を前記漏れ検出路と接続して、前記検査対象からの対象実測漏れ値を実測する対象実測工程と、
前記素子実測漏れ値に基づいて前記対象実測漏れ値を前記規定条件下での値に換算し、前記換算した値に基づいて漏れ判定する判定工程と、
を備えたことを特徴とする。
前記規定条件換算漏れ値は、孔寸法相当値であり、温度及び圧力等の条件が変わっても、密封欠陥の大きさが同じであれば、同じ値になる。これによって、同じ漏れ判定結果を得ることができる。
これによって、漏れ素子と検査対象との間の温度及び圧力に対する変動特性のズレをなるべく小さくできる。
規定状態で漏れ素子の漏れ閾値と近似した漏れになる検査対象を用いることが好ましい。
先順の良品判定された検査対象の実測漏れ値に対して、後順の良品判定された検査対象の実測漏れ値が、所定割合以上増減したときは、前記素子実測工程をし直すことによって前記素子実測漏れ値を更新することが好ましい。
これによって、温度や圧力が大きく変動した場合、素子実測漏れ値を設定し直すことで、漏れ判定の正確さを確保できる。
前記先順の対象実測漏れ値は、前回の素子実測漏れ値の取得直後の良品検査対象の実測値であってもよい。
前記換算係数に基づいて前記対象実測漏れ値を規定条件換算漏れ値に換算することが好ましい。前記換算係数は、実測値を規定条件下での値に換算するための係数である。
前記換算係数に基づいて前記対象実測漏れ値を規定条件換算漏れ値に換算することが好ましい。
これによって、検査対象を検査する都度、その検査時の温度や圧力等の環境条件を反映した換算係数を算出して、対象実測漏れ値を規定条件換算漏れ値に換算できる。したがって、同じ大きさの密封欠陥であれば、温度及び圧力等の条件が変わっても、確実に同じ漏れ判定結果が得られるようにすることができ、漏れ判定の信頼性を一層高めることができる。
これによって、基準漏れ孔の大きさ(直径及び長さ等)が不確かであったり、直径が一定でなかったりしても、基準漏れ孔寸法係数を適確に設定することができ、ひいては、換算の適確性を高めることができる。
[第1実施形態]
図1に示すように、漏れ検査装置1は、漏れ検出路10と、処理手段3(制御手段)と、漏れ素子5を備えている。漏れ検出路10は、共通路11と、基準路18と、検査路19を含む。圧力源2から共通路11が延びている。共通路11には、圧力調整弁21と、圧力計31(試験圧測定手段)と、三方弁からなる加圧排気弁22とが圧力源2側から順次設けられている。
弁21~29によって、弁手段が構成されている。
処理手段3は、マイクロコンピュータや、弁手段21~29の駆動回路等を含む。処理手段3によって、漏れ検査装置1の弁手段21~29等の動作が制御され、更には漏れ判定処理が行われる。前記マイクロコンピュータのメモリ3m(記憶手段)には、漏れ検査のシーケンスプログラムの他、検査対象9の漏れ判定の閾値Q9B(Pa・m3/s)、漏れ素子5の規定漏れ量Q5S(Pa・m3/s)、検査対象9の容積V(m3)等の、漏れ判定に必要なデータが格納される。
予め、漏れ素子5の規定漏れ量Q5Sを処理手段3に記憶させる。また、検査対象9の漏れ判定の閾値を設定し、処理手段3に記憶させておく。
好ましくは、漏れ素子5としては、規定漏れ量Q5Sが検査対象9の漏れ判定の閾値になるべく近いものを選択する。規定漏れ量Q5Sは、検査対象9の漏れ判定の閾値の好ましくは0.8~1.2倍である。
また、漏れ素子5の規定条件(規定の温度及び規定の圧力)は、検査対象9の漏れ試験現場の試験条件(温度及び圧力)となるべく近いことが好ましい。
検査路19には漏れの無い良品検査対象9を接続しておく。
加圧排気弁22によって共通路11と、基準路18及び検査路19を連通させる。また、遮断弁28,29を開く。これによって、圧力源2からのエア圧が、圧力調整弁21において試験圧まで減圧される。この試験圧が、基準路18から基準容器8に導入されるともに、検査路19から漏れ無し良品検査対象9に導入される。
そのうえで、実際の検査対象9に対して漏れ検査を行う。
詳しくは、前記実際の検査対象9を検査路19に接続する。
加圧排気弁22によって共通路11と、基準路18及び検査路19を連通させる。また、遮断弁28,29を開く。これによって、圧力源2からのエア圧が、圧力調整弁21において試験圧まで減圧される。この試験圧が、基準路18から基準容器8に導入されるともに、検査路19から検査対象9に導入される。
次に、規定条件換算漏れ値Q9S(孔寸法相当値)に基づいて漏れ判定を行なう。
詳しくは、規定条件換算漏れ値Q9Sが閾値Q9B以内であれば、その検査対象9を良品(漏れ無し)と判定する。規定条件換算漏れ値Q9Sが閾値Q9Bを超えていれば、その検査対象9を不良品(漏れ有り)と判定する。
これによって、同じ大きさの密封欠陥であれば、温度及び圧力等の条件が変わっても同じ漏れ判定結果が得られるようにすることができる。
以後、同様にして、複数の検査対象9の漏れ検査を順次行う。
そして、先順の良品判定された検査対象9の実測漏れ量Q9Rに対して、後順の良品判定された検査対象9の実測漏れ量Q9Rが、所定割合(例えば3%~10%)以上増減したときは、素子実測工程をし直す。これによって、温度や圧力が漸次変動することで、前回の素子実測漏れ量Q5Rの取得時からの変動幅が大きくなったときは、素子実測漏れ量Q5Rひいては換算係数kを変動後の温度及び圧力に対応する値に更新することができる。以後、更新後の素子実測漏れ量Q5R又は換算係数kを用いて、規定条件換算漏れ値Q9Sを算出し、漏れ判定する。この結果、漏れ判定の正確さを確保することができる。しかも、温度や圧力が急激に大きく変動しない限り、素子実測漏れ量Q5Rを頻繁に実測して更新する必要がなく、煩雑さを回避できる。
また、第1実施形態によれば、温度センサ及び圧力センサ、並びにこれらセンサの測定値の監視手段を設ける必要が無く、製品コストが上昇するのを防止できる。
[第2実施形態]
図2に示すように、第2実施形態に係る漏れ検査装置1Bは、装置筐体1aと、検査部1bを備えている。
装置筐体1aには、圧力源2と、処理手段3と、漏れ検出路10における圧力源2との接続部から差圧計33までの部分と、その部分に配置された空圧素子21,22,28,29,31,33が格納されている。図示は省略するが、更に、装置筐体1aには、モニターや、タッチパネル等の入力部の他、弁手段21~29の手動操作等が設けられている。
これによって、漏れ素子5を検査対象9とほぼ同じ温度及び圧力条件に置き、検査対象9とできるだけ同じような変動を受けるようにできる。ひいては、漏れ素子5の実測漏れ量Q5Rを基準とした漏れ判定の精度を確保することができる。
なお、漏れ検査装置1Bにおいて、基準容器8については、装置筐体1a内に配置してもよい。
図3は、本発明の第3実施形態に係る漏れ検査装置1Cを示したものである。漏れ検査装置1Cでは、弁手段として電磁開閉弁41~47が設けられている。これら開閉弁41~47のオンオフ操作のフローチャートを図4に示す。
加圧工程で、弁44を開き、弁42を閉じることで、検査対象9に試験圧が導入される。一方、基準容器8には、弁45,47を介して試験圧が常時導入されている。
平衡工程で、弁43を閉じ、弁44を開き、弁45を閉じることで、基準容器8と検査対象9とが連通路17を介して連通される。
続いて、弁47を閉じることで、基準容器8と検査対象9とが遮断される。
そして、差圧計33によって差圧検出(実測漏れ量Q9Rの測定)を行なう。
これによって、基準容器8の断熱圧縮による影響を除くことができる。
校正弁46は、常時閉じておく。
弁44~47、差圧計33、及び基準容器8等を含むエア通路は、図3において二点鎖線にて示す金属製の計測ブロック4に組み込まれている。
図5は、本発明の第4実施形態に係る漏れ検査装置1Dを示したものである。漏れ検査装置1Dは、第3実施形態(図4)の漏れ検査装置1Cにおいて、更に、温度測定手段6と、大気圧測定手段32(外部圧力測定手段)を備えている。検査対象9と漏れ素子5とが互いに近くに配置されている。これら検査対象9及び漏れ素子5の近くに温度測定手段6及び大気圧測定手段32が配置されている。
また、大気圧測定手段32はて、検査対象9及び漏れ素子5の外部圧力すなわち検査対象9及び漏れ素子5の周辺の大気圧の絶対圧力P32(Pa-abs.)を測定する。大気圧の絶対圧力P32は、検査対象9の外部圧力(密封欠陥の出口圧力)または漏れ素子5の外部圧力(漏れ孔5aの出口圧力)に相当する。
なお、2つの大気圧測定手段32を検査対象9の近くと漏れ素子5の近くに別々に設けてもよい。2つの温度測定手段6を検査対象9の近くと漏れ素子5の近くに別々に設けてもよい。
<素子実測工程>
素子実測工程では、差圧計33(漏れ測定手段)によって素子実測圧力変化ΔP5Rを測定し、式2にしたがって素子実測漏れ値Q5Rを導出する。
また、試験圧測定手段31によって試験圧P31(Pa)を測定し、大気圧測定手段32によって大気圧の絶対圧力P32(Pa-abs.)を測定し、温度測定手段6によって周辺温度T6(K)を測定する。以下、素子実測工程時の各測定値P31,P32,T6は、添え字の末尾にAを付して、それぞれP31A,P32A,T6Aと表記する。
TSは、規定条件の温度(K)であり、例えばTS=296.15K(=23℃)である。
η6Aは、実測温度T6A(K)における気体(空気)の粘性係数(Pa・s)である。例えば20℃(=293.15K)における空気の粘性係数は、18.2×10-5(Pa・S)であるから、サザランドの式によれば、以下の関係が成り立つ。
基準漏れ孔5aの直径D4及び長さL5が正しく判明している場合は、式7を用いて基準漏れ孔寸法係数Aを演算してもよい。
η6Bは、実測温度T6B(K)における気体(空気)の粘性係数(Pa・s)であり、例えば20℃(=293.15K)における空気の粘性係数18.2×10-5(Pa・S)と、サザランドの式とから、以下の関係が成り立つ。
漏れ検査装置1Dによれば、検査対象9を検査する都度、その検査時の環境条件を反映した換算係数kを算出して、対象実測漏れ値Q9Rを規定条件換算漏れ値Q9Sに換算できる。したがって、同じ大きさの密封欠陥であれば、温度及び圧力等の条件が変わっても、確実に同じ漏れ判定結果が得られるようにすることができ、漏れ判定の信頼性を一層高めることができる。
更に、換算係数kの算出に用いる基準漏れ孔寸法係数Aについても、定期又は不定期に見直すことで、規定条件換算漏れ値Q9Sへの換算の適確性を高めることができる。
例えば、流量によって漏れ判定するのに限られず、差圧又は直圧によって漏れ判定してもよい。
圧力源2は、エアコンプレッサー等の正圧源に限られず、真空ポンプ等の負圧源であってもよい。
本発明は、エアリークテストに限られず、ヘリウムリークテスト、水素リークテスト、その他種々のリークテストに適用可能である。
