Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of electrical appliance manufacturing, and particularly to a pipeline connection structure and a compressor assembly. Background Art
[0002] In the related art, there are multiple pipelines provided inside a compressor, and the pipelines are connected to each other through a pipeline connection structure. The strength of steel pipes with the same specification is much greater than that of copper pipes, and the thermal conductivity of copper is many times that of stainless steel. During soldering, the steel pipes are prone to uneven heat absorption, resulting in cracking or a reduction in strength due to thermal stress. To ensure the feasibility and convenience of on-site welding, generally a copper sleeve is added at the joint of the steel pipe. The copper sleeve is pre-welded to the steel pipe as a whole, and during on-site soldering in the workshop, only the copper sleeves are soldered to each other, or the copper sleeve is soldered to the copper pipe, etc. However, there are various welding defects in the existing pipeline connection structure. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The present invention is made based on the inventor's discovery and recognition of the following facts and problems:
[0004] In the related art, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 , in the pipeline connection structure, one copper sleeve is welded outside the end of one steel pipe, and the other copper sleeve is welded inside the other steel pipe. During connection, the two copper sleeves are welded. If the flared or tapered copper sleeve welding method is adopted, the transition area of the flared or tapered part of the copper sleeve is close to the weld. Under the dual influence of welding heat and high-speed flame, the crystal grains at this place become larger after welding, and there is thermal stress, resulting in a decrease in strength, making this place the weak point of the joint.
[0005] In the related art, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 , if the copper sleeve welding method with flush ports is adopted, it is not easy to observe the temperature state of the copper sleeve during welding, the solder is difficult to adhere to the weld, which easily leads to overheating of the weld, affecting the strength of the copper sleeve - steel pipe weld, and the weld is prone to leakage. In addition, the steel pipe exposed to the welding torch flame on the outside is prone to cracking and a decrease in strength under the condition of uneven heating, and is greatly affected by the welding level, with poor welding consistency. The outer steel pipe turns black after being heated, forming a contrast with the color of the matrix.
[0006] In the related art, such as Figure 5 , the melting points of copper and steel differ greatly. During flame welding, the excess solder will drip onto the inner wall of the steel pipe and slide down like water droplets. The sliding solder will enter components such as the four-way valve, easily causing the jamming or abnormal noise of the internal sliding components.
[0007] The present invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems in the related art to a certain extent.
[0008] To this end, the first object of the present invention is to propose a pipeline connection structure.
[0009] The second object of the present invention is to propose another pipeline connection structure.

[0035] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below. The examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as a limitation to the present invention.
[0036] Refer to Figures 6 - 15 to describe the pipeline connection structure according to the embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention.
[0037] As Figures 6 - 10 shown, the pipeline connection structure according to the embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention includes a first steel pipe 11, a first copper sleeve 12, a second steel pipe 21, and a second copper sleeve 22. The first steel pipe 11 has an upper section 11A and a lower section 11B of the first steel pipe. The second steel pipe 21 has a lower section 21B and an upper section 21A of the second steel pipe. The first copper sleeve 12 has an upper section 12A and a lower section 12B of the first copper sleeve. The second copper sleeve 22 has a lower section 22B and an upper section 22A of the second copper sleeve.
[0038] As Figures 6 - 8 shown, the first copper sleeve 12 is sleeved on the outer peripheral surface of the upper section 11A of the first steel pipe. In the figure, the upper section 12A of the first copper sleeve is located at the upper part, the lower section 12B of the first copper sleeve is located at the lower part, the upper section 11A of the first steel pipe is located at the upper part, and the lower section 11B of the first steel pipe is located at the lower part. The upper section 12A of the first copper sleeve extends beyond the upper section 11A of the first steel pipe to form a first extension section.
[0039] As Figure 9 and Figure 10 shown, the second copper sleeve 22 is sleeved on the lower section 21B of the second steel pipe.
[0040] As Figures 11 - 14 shown, the first steel pipe 11 and the first copper sleeve 12 are welded into one body, the second steel pipe 21 and the second copper sleeve 22 are welded into one body, and the first extension section of the first copper sleeve 12 is sleeved outside the second copper sleeve 22 and welded to the second copper sleeve 22.
[0041] According to the pipeline connection structure of the first aspect embodiment of the present invention, by reasonably setting the positional relationship of the first steel pipe 11, the first copper sleeve 12, the second steel pipe 21 and the second copper sleeve 22, both the first copper sleeve 12 and the second copper sleeve 22 are arranged outside the steel pipe, avoiding disadvantages such as poor heat conduction ability of the steel pipe and uneven heat absorption and cracking. In addition, since the first copper sleeve 12 is arranged outside the first steel pipe 11, the thickness of the first copper sleeve 12 is not limited, increasing the strength of the joint of the pipeline connection structure, reducing the risk of pipeline fracture and leakage risk, and improving the reliability of the pipeline connection structure.
[0042] In some embodiments, as Figure 9 and Figure 10 shown, the lower section 22B of the second copper sleeve is located at the lower part, and the upper section 22A of the second copper sleeve is located at the upper part. The lower section 21B of the second steel pipe is located at the lower part, and the upper section 21A of the second steel pipe is located at the upper part. As Figure 9 shown, the lower section 22B of the second copper sleeve is flush with the lower section 21B of the second steel pipe, or as Figure 10 shown, the lower section 22B of the second copper sleeve extends beyond the lower section 21B of the second steel pipe to form a second extension section. The upper section 22A of the second copper sleeve extends a predetermined length from the upper section 12A of the first copper sleeve.
[0043] Extending the lower section 22B of the second copper sleeve beyond the lower section 21B of the second steel pipe has a larger solder penetration depth and better sealing performance compared with the lower section 22B of the second copper sleeve being flush with the lower section 21B of the second steel pipe, and can avoid the problem of excess solder dripping.
[0044] Furthermore, the predetermined length is 15 - 25 millimeters, and the length of the first extension section is 8 - 12 millimeters. Thus, it can be ensured that the upper section 22A of the second copper sleeve can exceed the upper section 12A of the first copper sleeve, avoiding the appearance of a cavity inside the upper section 12A of the first copper sleeve and affecting the structural strength of the connection part. At the same time, the upper section 22A of the second copper sleeve can protect the lower section 21B of the second steel pipe, preventing solder from dripping onto the lower section 21B of the second steel pipe and thus affecting the structural strength of the lower section 21B of the second steel pipe.
[0045] In some embodiments, as Figure 10 shown, the end face of the lower section 22B of the second copper sleeve abuts against the end face of the upper section 11A of the first steel pipe; or as Figure 11 and Figure 12 shown, the end face of the lower section 22B of the second copper sleeve is spaced a predetermined distance from the end face of the upper section 11A of the first steel pipe. Thus, the required connection method can be adjusted according to the actual working conditions.
[0046] In some embodiments, as Figure 14 shown, the lower section 22B of the second copper sleeve extends into the first steel pipe 11. Thus, this structure can form multiple layers of protection and strengthen the structural strength of the connection part.
[0047] Furthermore, when the lower section 22B of the second copper sleeve extends into the first steel pipe 11, in order to ensure the relative position between the second copper sleeve 22 and the first steel pipe 11, a positioning protrusion 111 for stopping the lower section 22B of the second copper sleeve is provided on the inner wall of the first steel pipe 11. The lower section 22B of the second copper sleeve extends into the first steel pipe 11 and gradually extends until the end face of the lower section 22B of the second copper sleeve contacts the positioning protrusion 111 on the inner wall of the first steel pipe 11, making it impossible for the second copper sleeve 22 to continue extending, thus ensuring the relative position between the second copper sleeve 22 and the first steel pipe 11.
[0048] In some embodiments, as Figure 6 and Figure 7 shown, the upper section 11A of the first steel pipe expands or contracts, and a flared or tapered opening is provided in the upper section 11A of the first steel pipe, which can reduce the influence of the welding part on the lower section 11B of the first steel pipe.
[0049] Or, as Figure 8 shown, the radial dimension of the upper section 11A of the first steel pipe is uniform. Thus, compared with the flared and tapered opening methods, the uniform dimension can save the material processing cost. The following refers to Figure 15 to describe the pipeline connection structure of the second aspect embodiment of the present invention.
[0050] As Figure 15 shown, according to the pipeline connection structure of the second aspect embodiment of the present invention, it includes a first pipe 31, a second pipe 41 and a third copper sleeve 42. The first pipe 31 is a copper pipe or a copper-plated pipe, the second pipe 41 is a steel pipe, the third copper sleeve 42 is sleeved outside the lower section 41B of the second pipe and welded to the second pipe 41, and the upper section of the first pipe 31 is sleeved outside the third copper sleeve 42 and welded to the third copper sleeve 42. Thus, using one copper sleeve to connect two steel pipes can reduce the processing steps and save raw materials.
[0051] In some embodiments, the lower section of the third copper sleeve 42 extends out of the lower section 41B of the second pipe, the upper section of the first pipe 31 expands to form a transition section, and a filter screen pressing ring 5 is provided between the lower section 41B of the second pipe and the transition section of the first pipe 31. The pipeline connection structure in this embodiment can cooperate with the return air pipe filter screen in the compressor by setting the filter screen pressing ring 5, and can prevent the solder from falling into the compressor.
[0052] The compressor assembly according to the third aspect embodiment of the present invention applies the pipeline connection structure in the above-mentioned embodiment.
[0053] The following refers to Figures 6 - 15 to describe the pipeline connection structure according to the embodiment of the present invention. It can be understood that the following description is only an exemplary illustration and not a specific limitation of the invention.
