Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of pipeline purging, and in particular to a purging device for pipeline cleaning. Background Technology

[0002] Due to localized pressure loss, 90% of pipe blockages are concentrated at locations where localized resistance loss occurs, such as bends, inclines, and declines in the pipeline. A blow-blocking interface is an interface used in pipeline systems for cleaning and blockage removal. Blow-blocking interfaces are typically used to remove dirt, deposits, or blockages from pipelines to maintain unobstructed and normal operation. Existing blow-blocking interfaces can be connected to blow-blocking devices, such as blow-blocking balls or blow-blocking bullets, to remove obstacles from pipelines by increasing pressure or using physical force. Alternatively, a blow-blocking tube can be inserted to use compressed air as a cleaning medium.

[0003] Existing blow-blocking interfaces are usually fixed, and operators cannot adjust the angle after inserting the blow-blocking device, which means that the blow-blocking device can only be used for cleaning. Operators usually have to remove the screws to open the closure before inserting the blow-blocking device, which is very inconvenient. Summary of the Invention

[0034] Preferably, the rotating assembly 201 includes a rotating ring 201a rotatably disposed in the annular cavity H-6, a rotating plate 201b rotatably disposed in the closed cavity H-4, and a slide block 201c disposed on the side wall of the rotating plate 201b.

[0037] Example 2

[0038] Reference Figures 1-8This is the second embodiment of the present invention, which is based on the previous embodiment.

[0039] Specifically, a plug post 102a-2 is slidably disposed in the second socket K-2, and a first spring 102a-3 is sleeved on the plug post 102a-2. The first spring 102a-3 is located in the first spring cavity K-3, and both ends of the plug post 102a-2 are rounded. The adjustment assembly 102 also includes a vertical post 102b slidably disposed in the vertical hole H-2. One end of the vertical post 102b has a first vertical surface 102b-1 and a first inclined surface 102b-2. The first vertical surface 102b-1 is parallel to the axis of the vertical post 102b, and one end of the first inclined surface 102b-2 is connected to one end of the first vertical surface 102b-1.

[0040] It should be noted that the insert 102a-2 is a cylinder, and the part of the insert 102a-2 that extends into the first insertion hole K-1 is rounded; the first spring 102a-3 applies a downward force to the insert 102a-2; the vertical column 102b is a cylinder, and the diameter of the vertical column 102b is the same as the diameter of the insert 102a-2; the angle at the connection between the first inclined surface 102b-2 and the first vertical surface 102b-1 is greater than 90 degrees and less than 150 degrees.

[0041] Furthermore, the rotating ring 201a has a second vertical surface 201a-1 and a second inclined surface 201a-2 at the end away from the rotating plate 201b. The second vertical surface 201a-1 is parallel to the axis of the rotating ring 201a, and one end of the second inclined surface 201a-2 is connected to one end of the second vertical surface 201a-1. A second locking hole H-7 is provided on the radial side wall of the rotating plate 201b, and the second locking hole H-7 is connected to the first locking hole H-5. The rotating assembly 201 also includes a pin 201d inserted into the first locking hole H-5 and the second locking hole H-7. The pin 201d has a large frictional force with the hole walls of the first locking hole H-5 and the second locking hole H-7.

[0042] It should be noted that the angle between the second inclined surface 201a-2 and the second vertical surface 201a-1 is less than 90 degrees and greater than 60 degrees, and the second vertical surface 201a-1 contacts the first inclined surface 102b-2; the second locking hole H-7 is a cylindrical hole, and the diameter of the second locking hole H-7 is the same as the diameter of the first locking hole H-5; the opening of the second locking hole H-7 is rounded; the pin 201d is cylindrical, and the pin 201d cooperates with the second locking hole H-7 and the first locking hole H-5. The end of the pin 201d extending out of the first locking hole H-5 is glued with a rubber block, which increases the contact area and makes it easier for the operator to pull it out.

[0043] Preferably, a second spring 202b is provided in the second spring cavity M-2, and the slide block 201c is slidably disposed in the slide block groove M-1. One end of the second spring 202b contacts the side wall of the slide block 201c. The sealing block 202a includes a first arc surface M-3, a second arc surface M-4, and a third arc surface M-5. The first arc surfaces M-3 of all sealing blocks 202a can form a complete circle, and the radii of the second arc surfaces M-4 and the third arc surfaces M-5 are the same. The second arc surfaces M-4 of all sealing blocks 202a contact the third arc surfaces M-5 of the adjacent sealing blocks 202a and fit together completely.

[0044] It should be noted that the first arc surface M-3 of each sealing block 202a can be combined to form a complete circle; the hinge point of the sealing block 202a is located at the intersection of the first arc surface M-3 and the third arc surface M-5; the second arc surface M-4 and the third arc surface M-5 have the same diameter, the second arc surface M-4 is an outwardly convex arc surface, and the third arc surface M-5 is an inwardly concave arc surface; the axes of the first arc surface M-3, the second arc surface M-4 and the third arc surface M-5 are parallel, and their axes are also parallel to the axis of the slide block 201c; the first arc surface M-3, the second arc surface M-4 and the third arc surface M-5 are triangularly arranged; the above arrangement allows the second arc surface M-4 on one sealing block 202a to fit against the third arc surface M-5 on the adjacent sealing block 202a when the sealing block 202a rotates around the hinge point hinged to the closed cavity H-4.

[0045] In this embodiment, when the operator needs to blow out the plug, the blow-out device needs to be inserted into the first socket K-1. The blow-out device will push the plug 102a-2 out of the first socket K-1. The other end of the pushed-out plug 102a-2 will push the vertical column 102b out of the second socket K-2, and make the vertical column 102b extend into the depth of the vertical hole H-2. At this time, the ball block 102a-1 loses the restriction of the vertical column 102b and can rotate freely.

[0046] It should be noted that when the vertical column 102b extends deep into the vertical hole H-2, the first inclined surface 102b-2 will press against the second inclined surface 201a-2. Since the rotating ring 201a cannot slide in the axial direction, the pressure of the first inclined surface 102b-2 on the second inclined surface 201a-2 will cause the first inclined surface 102b-2 to slide from the end of the second inclined surface 201a-2 near the end face of the rotating ring 201a to the end of the second inclined surface 201a-2 near the second vertical surface 201a-1, so that the rotating ring 201a as a whole is in the annular cavity H. -6 rotates counterclockwise; the rotating ring 201a causes the rotating plate 201b to rotate together, and also drives the slide block 201c to rotate; the rotating slide block 201c will slide from the end of the slide block groove M-1 near the first arc surface M-3 to the end near the second arc surface M-4, while compressing the second spring 202b, which will cause the sealing block 202a to rotate around the hinge, so that the sealing component 202 rotates from a complete circle to an annular shape; after this, the blow-blocking device can be inserted into the pipeline W from the opening of the sealing component 202 to blow-block.

[0047] It should also be noted that after the purging is completed, the operator must remove the purging device, keeping it perpendicular to the side wall of the pipeline W. After the purging device is removed, the insert 102a-2 will re-enter the first insertion hole K-1 under the elastic force of the first spring 102a-3, and the sealing component 202 will also return to the state of forming a complete circle with the sealing block 202a under the elastic force of the second spring 202b, thereby sealing the pipeline W. At the same time, when the second spring 202b is extended to its maximum, the rotating ring 201a will also rotate to the state when the purging device is not inserted, thereby squeezing the vertical column 102b into the second insertion hole K-2 and locking the rotation angle of the ball block 102a-1. Finally, the operator must insert the pin 201d into the first locking hole H-5 and extend it into the second locking hole H-7 to lock the rotating ring 201a, thereby locking the sealing component 202 and keeping it closed under special environments such as external vibration.

[0048] It should be understood that numerous specific implementation decisions can be made during the development of any practical implementation, such as in any engineering or design project. Such development efforts may be complex and time-consuming, but for those skilled in the art who benefit from this disclosure, the development effort will be a routine work of design, manufacturing, and production without requiring much experimentation.

[0049] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
