Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of fluid control, and in particular to a quick connector. Background Art

[0002] The water inlet and outlet of existing pumps are mostly threaded. In actual assembly, a threaded pipe joint is used, and a certain amount of sealing filling material is wrapped around it and then tightened to assemble it. This method is relatively cumbersome, with low assembly efficiency and is unreliable. The amount of sealing filler is difficult to control, and the degree of tightening of the pipe joint is also restricted by the direction of the water pipe joint. In this way, it is very easy to have poor sealing of the connection here. At present, there are also pumps with quick connectors on the market, but they use a simple process that follows the water pipe quick connector. The quick connector part is directly welded to the pump using an ultrasonic process. Since the pump head material is made of general nylon reinforced raw material, and the ultrasonic welding process performance of this material is not good, it is easy to have poor welding.
