Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of pipe fittings, specifically to a socket weld right-angle elbow that facilitates connection and its manufacturing process. Background Technology
[0002] In piping systems, elbows are fittings used to change the direction of pipelines. Based on angle, the three most common types are 45°, 90°, and 180°. Additionally, depending on project requirements, other non-standard angle elbows such as 60° are also available. Elbows are made from materials including cast iron, stainless steel, alloy steel, malleable cast iron, carbon steel, non-ferrous metals, and plastics.
[0003] In the existing technology, the bend is installed between the two pipe bodies. After the pipeline is connected by the bend, the bend and the pipe body need to be welded and reinforced. When the pipe body and the bend are not welded and fixed, the pipeline cannot complete the normal transportation work. That is, if a bend along the pipeline is not fixed, it will affect the normal use of the entire pipeline. Summary of the Invention

[0029] Based on Embodiment 1, in order to increase the friction force of the pipe 4 after it is inserted into the right-angle bend body 1 and then withdraws, the guide ring 2 has a frustum-shaped ring plate structure. The diameter of the end of the guide ring 2 near the right-angle bend body 1 is equal to the diameter of the right-angle bend body 1, and the diameter of the end of the guide ring 2 away from the right-angle bend body 1 is larger than the diameter of the right-angle bend body 1.

The inner ring surface of the collar 3 is provided with an insert groove 11. The insert groove 11 has an annular plate structure. A sealing ring 12 is fixed inside the insert groove 11. The inner ring diameter of the sealing ring 12 is smaller than the inner ring diameter of the collar 3. After the pipe 4 is inserted into the right-angle bend body 1, the sealing ring 12 is clamped between the collar 3 and the pipe 4. The inner ring surface of the sealing ring 12 is provided with a split groove 13. The split groove 13 is an annular groove.
[0030] Example 3
[0031] See attached document Figure 3 and Figure 4Based on Embodiment 2, in order to achieve rapid assembly of the right-angle bend body 1 and the pipe 4, a welded connecting ring 14 is fixed to the inner ring surface of the guide ring 2. The welded connecting ring 14 is a frustum-shaped pipe. After the pipe 4 is inserted into the right-angle bend body 1, the welded connecting ring 14 is clamped between the pipe 4 and the collar 3. The limiting clips include a retaining ring 5, a side groove 6, a sealing gasket ring 7, a mating groove 8, an elastic traction piece 9, and a locking strip 10. The retaining ring 5 has an annular plate structure. The outer ring surface of the retaining ring 5 is fixed to the inner wall of the right-angle bend body 1. The inner ring diameter of the retaining ring 5 is equal to the inner ring diameter of the pipe 4. The end of the retaining ring 5 facing the pipe 4 is opened. There is a side groove 6, which is an annular groove. The sealing gasket 7 is a ring plate structure with a "U" shaped cross section. The sealing gasket 7 is fixed to the surface of the side groove 6. The thickness of the sealing gasket 7 is greater than the depth of the side groove 6. The inner ring surface of the retaining ring 5 has multiple mating grooves 8. An elastic traction piece 9 is movably inserted into the inside of the mating groove 8. One end of the elastic traction piece 9 is fixed to the surface of the pipe 4, and the other end of the elastic traction piece 9 is fixed with a retaining strip 10. The retaining strip 10 is a right-angled trapezoidal strip. When the pipe 4 is inserted into the right-angled bend body 1 and blocked by the retaining ring 5, the sealing gasket 7 is squeezed and deformed by the pipe 4, and the retaining strip 10 is stuck on one side of the retaining ring 5.
[0032] Example 4
[0033] See attached document Figure 5 and Figure 6 Based on Embodiment 3, in order to enable the rubber cover 17 to unfold the protective collar 3 and to fold the rubber cover 17 into the storage groove 16, a storage groove 16 is provided on the side of the collar 3 facing the right-angle bend body 1. The storage groove 16 is an annular groove, and the rubber cover 17 is fixed inside the storage groove 16. A rubber ring 18 is fixed to one end of the rubber cover 17. The rubber ring 18 is pushed into the limiting groove 19. The limiting groove 19 is a circular groove and is opened on the surface of the right-angle bend body 1. When the rubber ring 18 is in the limiting groove 19, the rubber cover 17 unfolds to protect the guide ring 2. An elastic clip 20 is fixed to the surface of the storage groove 16. The elastic clip 20 is a ring plate structure with an arc-shaped cross section. When the rubber ring 18 is pushed and clamped between the storage groove 16 and the elastic clip 20, the rubber cover 17 is folded into the storage groove 16.
[0034] Example 5
[0035] A manufacturing process for socket welding right-angle elbows that facilitates joint connection, the manufacturing method comprising the following steps:
[0036] An inlet ring 2 and a collar 3 are integrally cast at both ends of the right-angle bend body 1. An elastic traction piece 9 is pre-fixed at one end of the pipe 4. A retaining ring 5 is fixed on the inner wall of the right-angle bend body 1. A retaining strip 10 is connected to the surface of the elastic traction piece 9. Multiple reserved openings 15 are opened on the surface of the inlet ring 2.
[0037] In actual use, when pipe 4 is pushed into the right-angle bend body 1, as pipe 4 is pushed forward, sealing ring 12 is squeezed between pipe 4 and collar 3. After the inclined surface of clamping strip 10 contacts retaining ring 5, as pipe 4 continues to advance, clamping strip 10 pushes elastic traction plate 9 to deform elastically until clamping strip 10 passes retaining ring 5. Then, elastic traction plate 9 rebounds and clamps clamping strip 10 on one side of retaining ring 5. At this time, sealing gasket 7 is compressed and deformed, clamped between pipe 4 and retaining ring 5. The rebound force of sealing gasket 7 pushes pipe 4, thereby causing clamping strip 12 to be squeezed between pipe 4 and retaining ring 5. 0 is tightly secured to one side of the retaining ring 5. At this time, even if the right-angle bend body 1 and pipe 4 are not welded, it will not affect the connection between the right-angle bend body 1 and pipe 4 to complete the conveying work. The welding ring 14 and pipe 4 are welded together through the reserved opening 15, thereby strengthening the connection between the right-angle bend body 1 and pipe 4. Then, the rubber ring 18 is pulled out from the storage groove 16 and put on the limiting groove 19. At this time, the rubber cover 17 unfolds and surrounds the outside of the inlet ring 2, thereby preventing rainwater from entering the gap between the inlet ring 2 and pipe 4 through the reserved opening 15.
[0038] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
