Both sides of the connecting ring 9 are inlaid with second permanent magnets 13 corresponding to the first permanent magnet 14 on the connecting joint 12. The first permanent magnet 14 and the second permanent magnet 13 are mutually attractive magnets, so that the first pipe 2 and the second pipe 3 can pass through the openings 8 on both sides of the shell 1 respectively and then be magnetically attracted to both sides of the connecting ring 9 through the connecting joint 12.

Both the inflation tube 6 and the air-deflation tube 7 are connected to the sealed chamber inside the shell 1. The air pump can inflate the sealed chamber through the inflation tube 6 to increase the air pressure in the sealed chamber. When the air pressure in the sealed chamber increases, the elastic rubber membrane 4 is deformed under the action of the air pressure, so that the joints between the elastic rubber membrane 4 and the connecting joint 12 and the connecting ring 9 are completely covered, thereby preventing leakage at the joints.
