[0007] The connector is also provided with an insertion tube, which is slidably connected to the connector and is used to pass through an elastic ring and be threadedly connected to the air inlet pipe, and the insertion tube can completely cover the installation groove;

[0008] The elastic ring is detachably connected to an elastic membrane and the elastic membrane is sleeved on the elastic ring. The elastic membrane is used to completely cover the air inlet pipe. The elastic membrane abuts against the groove wall of the installation groove.

[0009] By adopting the above technical scheme, an elastic envelope is set on the elastic ring, and the elastic ring can block the air intake pipe when the connector is not connected, reducing the entry of dust and particulate matter. When connecting, the connector is first connected to the equipment to be exhausted, and then the connector is connected to the air intake pipe. When the elastic ring is not rotated out, the insertion tube of the connector is blocked by the elastic envelope and cannot be inserted.

The shielding ring can further shield the installation groove, thereby further reducing the entry of dust from the installation groove.

[0036] The present application is further described in detail below through specific embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0037] A Roots slide valve vacuum unit, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it includes a frame 1, on which a Roots pump 2 and a slide valve pump 3 are arranged, and the Roots pump 2 and the slide valve pump 3 are connected. The Roots pump 2 is provided with an air inlet pipe 21, and the slide valve pump 3 is provided with an air outlet pipe. The air inlet pipe 21 is detachably connected with a connector 4, one end of which is used to connect a device to be vacuumed, and the other end of which is used to be detachably connected to the air inlet pipe 21. In specific implementation, the vacuum unit formed by the cooperation of the Roots pump 2 and the slide valve pump 3 can quickly and efficiently extract air.

[0038] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, an elastic ring 5 is provided on one side of the air inlet pipe 21 close to the connector 4, and the elastic ring 5 corresponds to the shape of the connector 4. A mounting groove is provided on the air inlet pipe 21 corresponding to the elastic ring 5, and the mounting groove is connected to the outside. One side of the elastic ring 5 is hinged in the mounting groove, and a magnetic block 54 is fixedly provided on the other side of the elastic ring 5. A magnetic block 54 is fixedly provided on the connector 4 corresponding to the magnetic block 54, and the magnetic blocks 54 are adsorbed to each other, and the elastic ring 5 can be rotated out of the mounting groove to the outside under adsorption. In specific implementation, when the connector 4 is docked with the air inlet pipe 21, the rotation of the connector 4 can drive the elastic ring 5 to rotate outward and rotate out of the rotation groove.

[0039] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the connector 4 is also provided with an insertion tube 41, which is slidably connected to the connector 4, and is used to pass through the elastic ring 5 and be threadedly connected to the air inlet pipe 21, and the insertion tube 41 can completely cover the installation groove. In specific implementation, the insertion tube 41 is provided with an external thread, and the air inlet pipe 21 is provided with an internal thread, thereby realizing a threaded connection.

[0040] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the elastic ring 5 is detachably connected with an elastic coating 52 and the elastic coating 52 is sleeved on the elastic ring 5. The elastic coating 52 is used to completely cover the air inlet pipe 21, and the elastic coating 52 abuts against the groove wall of the installation groove. In specific implementation, the structure of the air outlet pipe is the same as that of the air inlet pipe 21, and the air outlet pipe is also detachably connected with a connector 4. When the connector 4 is installed, the insertion tube 41 will be blocked by the elastic coating 52. Then, the elastic ring 5 can be rotated out by rotating the connector 4. At this time, the elastic coating 52 can be manually removed, and the elastic ring 5 can be pushed back into the installation groove for reset. At this time, the insertion tube 41 can be inserted into the air inlet pipe 21 for threaded connection. Due to the threaded connection of the insertion tube 41, the insertion tube 41 is restricted from displacement. At this time, the connector 4 can be rotated again to connect the connector 4 to the air inlet pipe 21, thereby limiting the movement of the connector 4 and completing the connection. In addition, the time of contact with the outside world during the connection process is less.

[0041] like Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the elastic ring 5 includes a ring body 51, and a break 53 is formed on the ring body 51. The elastic ring 5 has a tendency to move toward both sides of the break 53. The break 53 is arranged between the hinge of the elastic ring 5 and the magnetic block 54. In specific implementation, the elastic ring 5 is made of a material with good elasticity, such as a copper ring or a polyethylene ring, which can be reasonably deformed during feeding to provide normal shielding. The elastic envelope 52 is sleeved on the ring body 51 during wrapping to shield the break 53. At the same time, due to the external elastic force of the ring body 51, the elastic envelope 52 can be fixed, thereby achieving the installation of the elastic envelope 52.

[0042] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a limiting ring 411 is provided on the insertion tube 41, and a clearance groove is provided in the connector 4 corresponding to the limiting ring 411, and the limiting ring 411 is embedded in the clearance groove. A sealing groove 43 is also provided at one end of the connector 4 close to the air inlet pipe 21, and the sealing groove 43 is connected to the clearance groove. A sealing ring is provided in the sealing groove 43, and the sealing ring is used to abut the limiting ring 411. In specific implementation, under the action of the limiting ring 411, the insertion tube 41 can be embedded in the inside of the connector 4 and restricted in the connector 4. After installation, the limiting ring 411 forms an abutment with the sealing ring, which can reduce the situation of dust entering from the gap and improve the sealing performance. Due to the extraction of vacuum, the insertion tube 41 can be pulled toward the side of the air inlet pipe 21, and the insertion tube 41 can form an abutment with the sealing ring, further improving the sealing performance.

[0043] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a shielding ring 22 is provided at a position corresponding to the mounting groove on the air inlet pipe 21, and the shielding ring 22 is threadedly connected to the air inlet pipe 21, and the shielding ring 22 completely shields the mounting groove. A clamping groove 221 is provided on the shielding ring 22, and a clamping block 44 is provided on the connector 4 corresponding to the clamping groove 221, and the clamping groove 221 is for the clamping block 44 to be embedded. In specific implementation, the shielding ring 22 can shield the mounting groove to reduce the situation where dust enters from the mounting groove. When installing the connector 4, the shielding ring 22 can be matched and connected through the connector 4. At this time, rotating the connector 4 can first drive the shielding ring 22 to rotate. The shielding ring 22 can loosen the threaded connection as the connector 4 rotates, and then falls off. At this time, the connector 4 is continued to rotate to rotate the elastic ring 5 out of the mounting groove, so that the elastic envelope 52 is removed.

[0044] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the side of the shielding ring 22 close to the mounting groove abuts against the elastic membrane 52. The elastic membrane 52 is smeared with oil at the abutment point with the groove wall of the mounting groove. In specific implementation, the oil of the elastic membrane 52 can form an oil seal at the groove wall of the mounting groove, thereby further reducing the situation where dust enters from the mounting groove.

[0045] Working principle: During installation, the connector 4 is connected to the air inlet pipe 21. During the connection process, the insertion tube 41 is first blocked by the elastic coating 52 and cannot enter. Then, by rotating the connector 4, the blocking ring 22 at the installation groove is first removed, and then the elastic ring 5 can be turned out by continuing to rotate. After the elastic ring 5 is turned out, the elastic coating 52 is removed. After the elastic ring 5 is reinserted, the insertion tube 41 can be inserted into the connector 4 for connection. At this time, the connector 4 can be threadedly connected to the air inlet pipe 21 with the help of the insertion tube 41. After the threaded connection, the position of the insertion tube 41 and the connector 4 can be fixed, thereby completing the connection. The air outlet pipe is also connected with the same structure. At this time, vacuuming can be achieved. When the vacuuming is completed, the elastic ring 5 can be pulled out again after removing the connector 4 to cover it with a new elastic coating 52, thereby isolating the inside from the outside again.

[0046] The above are preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
