[0041] In the embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 5The inner wall of the first valve groove 11 is provided with a plurality of driving grooves, the driving grooves are provided with driving plates 114 which are slidably connected, the driving plates 114 are fixedly connected with the first valve plate 113, the driving grooves are provided with first hydraulic rods 115 which are fixedly connected, the extension end of the first hydraulic rod 115 is fixedly connected with the driving plate 114, one side wall of the negative pressure ring groove 14 is provided with a plurality of linkage grooves 143, the linkage grooves 143 are provided with linkage rods 144 which are slidably and sealingly connected, the linkage rods 144 are fixedly connected with the negative pressure ring plate 141, the linkage grooves 143 and the first hydraulic rod 115 are provided with a flow guide groove 145 which is connected in communication, when the first valve plate 113 is closed, the driving plate 114 extrudes the first hydraulic rod 115 to drive the linkage rod 144 to elongate, the negative pressure ring plate 141 is driven to move towards the other end, so that the negative pressure suction hole 142 sucks the liquid in the connecting groove 12 into the negative pressure ring groove 14.

[0042] The design of the driving plate 114, the first hydraulic rod 115, the linkage groove 143 and the linkage rod 144 can make the negative pressure ring plate 141 move and the negative pressure suction hole 142 automatically suck only when the first valve plate 113 is closed, and the negative pressure ring plate 141 returns to the initial position when the first valve plate 113 is opened, so that the sucked things can directly enter the pipeline again, and leakage is effectively prevented.

[0043] In the embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 The inner wall of the connecting groove 12 is provided with a first clamping groove 121, the first clamping groove 121 is provided with first locking tongues 1211 which can move back and forth, the outer side wall of the second connector pipe 2 is provided with a first locking groove 22 which corresponds to the first locking tongue 1211, after the first locking tongue 1211 is clamped with the first locking groove 22, the first valve groove 11 and the second valve groove 21 are in communication with each other, the inner wall of the connecting groove 12 is further provided with a second clamping groove 123, the second clamping groove 123 is provided with second locking tongues 1231 which can be extended and retracted, the outer side wall of the second connector pipe 2 is provided with a second locking groove 23 which is used for clamping connection with the second locking tongue 1231, when the second locking tongue 1231 is clamped with the second locking groove 23, the protruding portions of the first valve plate 113 and the second valve plate 213 are in contact with each other, the length of the second locking groove 23 is greater than the thickness of the second locking tongue 1231.

The negative pressure generated by the negative pressure ring plate 141 can suck the material at the connection and also move the sealing rod 149. When the sealing rod 149 moves to the air inlet groove 140, the air inlet groove 140 is in communication with the outside, thereby breaking the strong negative pressure at the connection, so that the first connector pipe 1 and the second connector pipe 2 are separated more simply and conveniently. The addition of the connecting piece 1233 and the connecting rod 148 can make the sealing rod 149 move while extruding the connecting rod 148 to drive the connecting piece 1233 to bend, so that the second locking tongue 1231 automatically retracts and releases the locking between the connection groove 12 and the second connector pipe 2.

[0052] Then continue to insert the second connector pipe 2 into the connecting groove 12, when the first valve plate 113 and the second valve plate 213 are completely opened, the first lock tongue 1211 is clamped and fixed with the first lock groove 22, and the first connector pipe 1 and the second connector pipe 2 are connected.

[0053] First control the connecting ring plate 1311 to rotate to the set position, control the pipe to reach the set pressure, and then open the overflow hole 134. When the connecting ring plate 1311 rotates, the meshing transmission of the connecting tooth 1318 and the adjusting gear 1317 can drive the plurality of threaded rods 1315 to rotate synchronously. The rotation of the threaded rod 1315, in combination with the sliding of the sliding rod 1319 and the sliding groove, realizes the reciprocating motion of the threaded rod 1315, so that the threaded rod 1315 can extend to a set length, thereby realizing the setting of the overflow pressure. When the pressure reaches the set value, the pressure can drive the overflow ring plate 131 to move, thereby opening the overflow hole 134, so that the pressure in the pipe is discharged through the overflow hole 134. The overflow hole 134 can be connected to other positions through a pipeline, so that the material in the pipe can be transported to other set positions through the pipeline;

[0054] When the first connector pipe 1 and the second connector pipe 2 are separated, at this time, only the pull ring 1221 needs to be controlled to drive the first lock tongue 1211 to separate from the first lock groove 22. Under the pressure of the first spring 112 and the second spring 212, the first valve plate 113 and the second valve plate 213 are automatically closed. At the same time, the movement of the first valve plate 113 can control the negative pressure ring plate 141 to automatically move towards one end through the hydraulic transmission of the driving plate 114 and the first hydraulic rod 115, so that the first valve plate 113 and the second valve plate 213 are sealed at the same time, and the negative pressure suction hole 142 can automatically suck the residual material at the connection of the connecting groove 12 into the negative pressure ring groove 14. At the same time, the negative pressure generated by the movement of the negative pressure ring plate 141 can suck the sealing rod 149 to move, so that the sealing rod 149 moves to the air inlet groove 140, and the negative pressure suction hole 142 is communicated with the outside through the air inlet groove 140, so that the negative pressure environment at the connection of the connecting groove 12 is released, making it easier to separate the first connector pipe 1 and the second connector pipe 2. Due to the movement of the sealing rod 149, the second lock tongue 1231 can be driven to retract through the connecting piece 1233, so that the second connector pipe 2 can be automatically separated after the negative pressure suction hole 142 is sucked, which effectively prevents the leakage of residual material at the connection, and also makes the whole disassembly more convenient.

[0055] A use method of a quick connector with an overflow valve function, which adopts the quick connector with the overflow valve function, and comprises the following steps:

[0056] S1 connect the first connector pipe 1 and the second connector pipe 2 through clamping, and then control the first valve plate 113 and the second valve plate 213 to move to communicate between the first valve groove 11 and the second valve groove 21;

[0057] S2 When the first joint pipe 1 and the second joint pipe 2 are under pressure, the pressure in the pipe can enter the overflow ring groove 13 through the communication hole 133, and push the overflow ring plate 131 to move and press the pressure spring 132. When the pressure pushes the overflow ring plate 131 to make the communication hole 133 communicate with the overflow hole 134, the pressure is released in time through the overflow hole 134 to prevent the pressure in the pipe from being too high.
