Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flange technology, and in particular to a positioning flange that is easy to install. Background Technology

[0002] Flanges are indispensable components in industrial fields such as pipeline connection and equipment assembly, and are widely used in industries such as petrochemicals, power energy, and water supply and drainage engineering. In petrochemical pipeline systems, flanges play a crucial role in connecting pipes of different diameters and materials, and their performance directly affects the sealing and stability of the entire pipeline system.

[0003] However, traditional flanges still have the following problems in actual use: 1. Traditional flanges usually rely on manual alignment of holes. Due to the lack of an effective positioning structure, repeated adjustments are required during installation, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive; 2. Traditional flanges use a single sealing gasket, which has limited sealing performance. When the pressure in the pipeline fluctuates or the temperature of the medium changes, leakage is likely to occur, which not only wastes the medium but also easily causes safety accidents. Therefore, we have introduced a positioning flange that is easy to install. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main objective of this invention is to provide a positioning flange that is easy to install, which can effectively solve the problems in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0006] An easy-to-install positioning flange includes a first flange, a second flange, and bolts. A sealing assembly is fitted between the first flange and the second flange. Several bolts are provided, and each bolt has a tapered head fixedly connected to its left end. Nuts are threaded onto the outer surface of each bolt.

[0007] Preferably, the first flange includes a first flange body, and a plurality of circular positioning holes and a plurality of arc-shaped positioning holes are opened at the right edge of the first flange body, and a first threaded hole through the inside and outside is opened on the left inner wall surface of the plurality of circular positioning holes.

[0008] Preferably, the second flange includes a second flange body, with a plurality of circular positioning heads and a plurality of arc-shaped positioning heads fixedly connected to the left edge of the second flange body, and a plurality of second threaded holes passing through to the left and right of the right edge of the second flange body.

[0009] Preferably, the plurality of circular positioning holes and the plurality of arc-shaped positioning holes are arranged in a circular array around the center of the first flange body, and the plurality of circular positioning holes and the plurality of arc-shaped positioning holes are arranged in pairs in an alternating pattern.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the circular positioning holes and the arc-shaped positioning holes are arranged in a ring array and are staggered in pairs, so that the circular positioning head and the arc-shaped positioning head of the second flange can quickly correspond to the hole positions of the first flange, which greatly shortens the installation and alignment time.

[0011] Preferably, the second screw holes and the circular positioning heads are distributed in pairs, corresponding to each other on the left and right.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the second screw hole and the circular positioning head are distributed on the left and right sides respectively, so that the bolt can pass through the second screw hole, the circular positioning head and the circular positioning hole in a straight line and be screwed into the first screw hole in one go, without the need for additional angle adjustment, thus shortening the installation time and greatly improving the assembly efficiency.

[0013] Preferably, a plurality of the circular positioning heads are movably fitted into a plurality of corresponding circular positioning holes, and a plurality of the arc-shaped positioning heads are respectively movably fitted into a plurality of corresponding arc-shaped positioning holes.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the circular positioning head and the circular positioning hole, and the arc-shaped positioning head and the arc-shaped positioning hole are correspondingly fitted together to form a dual positioning structure that combines points and surfaces. During installation, the deviation is automatically corrected, effectively avoiding sealing failure and stress concentration problems caused by misalignment of the flange installation.

[0015] Preferably, the sealing assembly includes a central sealing ring, with a first sealing gasket fixedly connected to the left end of the central sealing ring and a second sealing gasket fixedly connected to the right end of the central sealing ring.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution: the materials of the middle sealing ring, the first sealing gasket, and the second sealing gasket are all "nitrile rubber", which has excellent oil resistance and wear resistance, can effectively resist the erosion of oily media such as fuel and lubricating oil, and maintains good elasticity in the temperature range of -40℃ to 120℃.

[0017] Preferably, the central sealing ring is located between the first flange body and the second flange body, the first sealing gasket is movably fitted inside the first flange body, and the second sealing gasket is movably fitted inside the second flange body.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution: the central sealing ring fills the gap between the first flange body and the second flange body, and the first sealing gasket and the second sealing gasket are tightly fitted with the corresponding first flange body and the second flange body, respectively, to form a three-dimensional sealing structure, preventing the medium from leaking from the edge and side wall, and improving the sealing reliability.

[0019] Preferably, the outer surfaces of the bolts are threaded to the inner walls of the corresponding second screw holes and extend through the corresponding circular positioning heads and the corresponding circular positioning holes into the corresponding first screw holes.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the bolts sequentially pass through the second screw hole, the circular positioning head, and the circular positioning hole and are screwed into the first screw hole, forming a coaxial multi-constraint structure, so that the first flange body and the second flange body are reliably locked in both the axial and radial directions.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0022] 1. In this utility model, during installation, first take out the sealing component, align the central sealing ring with the first flange body, and smoothly put the first sealing gasket into the first flange body. Then, bring the second flange body closer so that the second sealing gasket is put into the second flange body, thus completing the installation of the sealing component. Next, using the circular positioning holes and arc-shaped positioning holes arranged in a ring array on the first flange body and the corresponding circular positioning head and arc-shaped positioning head on the second flange body, align the circular positioning head with the circular positioning hole and the arc-shaped positioning head with the arc-shaped positioning hole with both hands at the same time, and push once to complete the initial positioning and splicing. The whole process takes less time and effectively improves the installation efficiency compared to traditional flanges.

[0023] 2. In this utility model, the central sealing ring of the sealing component, together with the first sealing gasket and the second sealing gasket at the left and right ends, forms a triple sealing structure. After installation, the first sealing gasket is tightly fitted to the inside of the first flange body, the second sealing gasket is tightly fitted to the inside of the second flange body, and the central sealing ring fills the gap between the first flange body and the second flange body. It can withstand high pressure without leakage and maintain good sealing performance, effectively solving the problem of traditional flange seal failure. Attached Figure Description
