[0041] First embodiment

[0042] In an embodiment of the present application, as shown, Figures 1A to 3 The pipe-connecting rubber barrel 1 includes a barrel body 10, at least two quick connection devices 300, a liquid flow pipe 40, and an adapter 50. The barrel body 10 includes a barrel body portion 200, a barrel cover portion 220, and a plurality of through holes 250. The barrel cover portion 220 is located above the barrel body portion 200 and is provided with a plurality of through holes 250 for communication between the inside and outside of the barrel body 10. The plurality of through holes 250 includes a first through hole 251 and a second through hole 252. The barrel body 10 is further used to contain liquid under normal pressure.

[0043] The at least two quick connection devices 300 correspond to the plurality of through holes 250 and are disposed in the barrel body 10 through the adapter 50. The at least two quick connection devices 300 can connect the pipe to supply fluid to enter and exit the barrel body 10 through the plurality of through holes 250. More specifically, the at least two quick connection devices 300 include a first quick connection device 310 and a second quick connection device 320. The first quick connection device 310 is disposed in the first through hole 251 by a first adapter 502 and is used to supply liquid to enter and exit the barrel body 10. The second quick connection device 320 is disposed in the second through hole 252 by a second adapter 504 and includes a liquid flow portion 3201 and a gas flow portion 3202. The second adapter 504 includes a main body portion 5041 and an adapter portion 5042. The liquid flow portion 3201 and the gas flow portion 3202 are both connected to the main body portion 5041. The specific structure of the liquid flow portion 3201 and the gas flow portion 3202 is not particularly limited. In this embodiment, the difference between the two is due to the difference in the flow rate of liquid and gas. In addition, the liquid flow portion 3201 and the gas flow portion 3202 can be connected to the pipe, respectively, so that the liquid enters and exits the barrel body 10 in sequence through the pipe, the liquid flow portion 3201, and the second adapter 504, and the gas enters and exits the barrel body through the pipe, the gas flow portion 3202, and the second adapter 504. The at least two quick connection devices 300 further have at least one open state and at least one closed state, and are activated to at least one open state by connection of the pipe. The liquid flow pipe 40 is disposed inside the barrel body 10 and communicates with the first through hole 251.

[0044] The second quick coupling device 320 can be used for gas to enter or exit the barrel body 10. For example, when liquid enters the barrel body 10 through the first quick coupling device 310, the second through hole 252 can be used for gas to exit, and when liquid exits the barrel body 10 through the first quick coupling device 310, gas can enter the barrel body 10 through the second quick coupling device 320, so as to maintain the pressure in the barrel and avoid deformation of the barrel.

[0045] The second quick coupling device 320 is also detachably arranged on the barrel body 10, and is further used for liquid to enter or exit the barrel body 10. As shown in Figure 2B the second quick coupling device 320 and the second adapter 504 can be connected through cooperation of, for example, threads and screw holes, and the adapter part 5042 of the second adapter 504 and the barrel body 10 can also be connected through cooperation of, for example, threads and screw holes. One side of the main body part 5041 of the second adapter 504 is further formed with a branch structure 5043. The liquid flow part 3201 and the gas flow part 3202 can be respectively connected with an adapted pipe, and liquid enters the barrel body 10 through the liquid flow part 3201 and the main body part 5041, and gas enters or exits the barrel body 10 through the gas flow part 3202, the branch structure 5043 and the main body part 5041.

[0046] Second embodiment

[0047] Figure 4 Another embodiment of the present application is shown. For the sake of simplicity of description, the same or similar parts as the previous embodiment will not be described again. Different from the first embodiment, the second quick coupling device of the present embodiment does not have a complex pipe mechanism, but connects the entry and exit of different fluids by different quick coupling devices and different adapters. As shown in Figure 4 the barrel body 10 of the pipe-connectable glue barrel 1a further has a third through hole 253, and further includes a third quick coupling device 330 arranged on the barrel body 10 and corresponding to and communicating with the third through hole 253. The first quick coupling device 310 is used for liquid to enter or exit the barrel body 10, the second quick coupling device 320 is used for gas to enter or exit the barrel body 10, and the third quick coupling device 330 can be used for liquid to enter or exit the barrel body 10.

[0048] The aforementioned quick coupling device 300 preferably has at least one open state and at least one closed state, and when in the open state, the quick coupling device 300 communicates with the outside and can be used for fluid to enter or exit the barrel body 10 through the through hole 250, and on the contrary, the closed state of the quick coupling device 300 can block the communication between the inside and outside of the barrel body 10, further avoiding exposure of the barrel environment. The open state can be activated by, for example, connection of a pipe with the quick coupling device 300, and on the contrary, disconnection of the pipe will close the quick coupling device 300. The cooperation of the quick coupling device 300 and the pipe and the accompanying opening and closing will not be described here. In addition, the connection of the pipe is only an example, and other ways can also be used to open and close the quick coupling device 300.

[0049] The following examples illustrate the use of the connectable drum 1 with other devices.

[0050] Example 1:

[0051] As shown in Fig. 1, the first quick coupling device 310 is connected to the first pipe 61 and is activated to an open state. The first pipe 61 is connected to other units, such as a container for receiving the liquid from the drum 1. The liquid flow portion 3201 and the gas flow portion 3202 of the second quick coupling device 320 are also connected to the appropriate pipes and are activated to an open state. In the example shown in Fig. 1, the gas flow portion 3202 of the second quick coupling device 320 is connected to the second pipe 62, and the other end of the second pipe 62 is connected to a gas source. When liquid is being discharged from the drum body 10, the gas source provides gas to the drum body 10 through the second pipe 62, thereby maintaining the pressure in the drum and preventing the deformation of the drum body. The discharged liquid can flow to other units through the first pipe 61. Figure 5A Figure 5A In addition, the connectable drum 1 can be used in combination with a power device 70, such as a pump, to extract liquid from the drum 1. The gas provided by the gas source can be, for example, nitrogen.

[0052] Example 2:

[0053] As shown in Fig. 2, the first quick coupling device 310 is connected to the first pipe 61, and the first pipe 61 is connected to the liquid flow portion 3201 of the second quick coupling device 320 to form a closed path. At this time, the liquid extracted from the drum body 10 can flow back to the drum body 10 from the liquid flow portion 3201 (the direction of the liquid flow is indicated by the large arrow). Example 2 has the following effects:

[0054] (1) The backflow of the liquid can be used to stir the liquid and achieve sufficient mixing. Figure 5B (2) In combination with a filtering device 80, the liquid discharged from the drum body 10 can be filtered and then returned to the drum 1, thereby achieving the purification of the liquid.

[0055] (3) When the liquid is water or cleaning liquid, the circulation of the liquid can be used to clean the connectable drum 1, and the connectable drum 1 can be reused.

[0056] (4) The gas flow portion 3202 can be used to supply gas to and from the drum 1, thereby regulating the pressure in the drum during the processes of (1), (2), or (3) and preventing the deformation of the drum body. In addition, the prevention of the deformation of the drum body can reduce the disturbance of the liquid in the drum 1.

[0057] In addition, the connectable drum 1 can be used in combination with more pipes, for example, to achieve the connection of the connectable drum 1 to the power device 70 and the filtering device 80, and to complete the closed path for the circulation of the liquid.
