DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0038] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the specific implementation methods of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0040] By replacing metal materials with plastic materials, welding processing is not required, which reduces production costs, and anti-rust treatment is not required, thus avoiding the occurrence of rust.
[0041] An air nozzle 108 is fixedly installed on the top of the upper cover 102, and the air outlet end of the air nozzle 108 passes through the inner cavity of the upper cover 102. A protective cover 105 is threadedly sleeved on the top of the upper cover 102, and a sealing plug 107 is installed on the top of the inner cavity of the protective cover 105. The sealing plug 107 seals the air inlet of the air nozzle 108.
[0042] Nitrogen can be filled into the interior of the middle tube 101, the upper cover 102 and the lower cover 103 through the air nozzle 108. When the liquid in the system expands due to the increase in temperature, the nitrogen can be compressed to accommodate the excess liquid volume. On the contrary, when the liquid cools and shrinks, the nitrogen will expand to fill the gap and maintain the pressure of the system stable. After the filling is completed, the protective cover 105 is screwed on the top of the upper cover 102, and the sealing plug 107 is inserted into the air inlet of the air nozzle 108 to seal it.
[0043] A first flange 109 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the lower cover 103 , a second flange 110 is provided at the bottom of the first flange 109 , and a connecting pipe 106 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the second flange 110 .
[0044] The top and bottom of the middle tube 101 are fixedly connected with a first connecting ring 111, the bottom of the upper cover 102 and the top of the lower cover 103 are fixedly connected with a second connecting ring 112, and sealant 113 is provided on the opposite sides of the first connecting ring 111 and the second connecting ring 112. The surfaces of the first connecting ring 111 and the second connecting ring 112 are sleeved with a sealing ring 114 and a fixing ring 104, and the inner wall of the fixing ring 104 is movably connected to the surfaces of the sealing ring 114, the first connecting ring 111, the second connecting ring 112, the middle tube 101, the upper cover 102 and the lower cover 103.
[0045] By applying sealant 113 on the opposite side of the first connecting ring 111 and the second connecting ring 112, leakage is prevented at the connection between the middle tube 101, the upper cover 102 and the lower cover 103, and then the sealing ring 114 is sleeved on the surface of the first connecting ring 111 and the second connecting ring 112 to perform secondary sealing. The surfaces of the first connecting ring 111 and the second connecting ring 112 are pre-opened with grooves for use with the sealing ring 114. After the sealing is completed, the fixing ring 104 is sleeved on the surfaces of the first connecting ring 111 and the second connecting ring 112. The fixing ring 104 is cylindrical before installation. After the sleeve is completed, the upper and lower sides of the fixing ring 104 are squeezed to form an inwardly curved covering ring on its upper and lower sides. The covering ring is fixed on the surfaces of the first connecting ring 111 and the second connecting ring 112, and the first connecting ring 111 and the second connecting ring 112 are fixed and sealed, so that the middle tube 101, the upper cover 102 and the lower cover 103 form a complete tank body.
[0046] The expansion tank body 100 further includes a bladder 200 . The bladder 200 is installed in the inner cavity of the expansion tank body 100 . The bladder 200 includes a bladder body 201 .
[0047] A semicircular head 202 is provided on the top of the rubber bladder body 201, and a mounting tube 204 is connected to the bottom of the rubber bladder body 201. A third flange 205 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting tube 204, and the third flange 205 is located on the side opposite to the first flange 109 and the second flange 110. The mounting tube 204 is located at the bottom of the inner cavity of the lower cover 103 and is connected to the connecting tube 106. A plurality of first drawstrings 203 are fixedly connected to the surface of the rubber bladder body 201, and one end of the first drawstrings 203 away from the rubber bladder body 201 is connected to the inner wall of the lower cover 103. A fixing ball 206 is provided at the middle end of the inner cavity of the rubber bladder body 201, and a plurality of second drawstrings 207 are fixedly connected to the top of the fixing ball 206, and the top of the second drawstrings 207 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the semicircular head 202.
[0048] The bottom of the fixed ball 206 is fixedly connected to a rod body 208, and the bottom of the rod body 208 is fixedly connected to a fixing piece 209, which is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the mounting tube 204. The first drawstring 203 is distributed around the surface of the rubber bladder body 201, and the top of the second drawstring 207 is distributed around the top of the inner wall of the semicircular head 202.
[0049] The second draw strap 207 has the same structure as the first draw strap 203. The first draw strap 203 includes a plurality of elastic ropes 2031 wound around each other. The surface of the elastic rope 2031 is sleeved with an inner elastic tube 2032. The surface of the inner elastic tube 2032 is wrapped with a spiral reinforcement rope 2033. The surface of the inner elastic tube 2032 is provided with a spiral groove 2035 for use with the spiral reinforcement rope 2033. The surfaces of the inner elastic tube 2032 and the spiral reinforcement rope 2033 are sleeved with an outer elastic tube 2034.
[0050] The bladder body 201 is made of EPDM rubber.
[0051] The elastic rope 2031, the inner elastic tube 2032 and the outer elastic tube 2034 are all made of rubber materials, and the inner elastic tube 2032 is made of steel wire rope material.
[0052] During the operation of the rubber bladder 200, the expanded liquid in the pipeline system passes through the connecting pipe 106, the second flange 110, the third flange 205 and the first flange 109 into the mounting tube 204, and the liquid enters the rubber bladder body 201 through the mounting tube 204, driving the semicircular head 202 and the rubber bladder body 201 to expand, and the rubber bladder body 201 and the semicircular head 202 squeeze the nitrogen filled in the inner cavity of the expansion tank body 100, and the rubber bladder body 201 drives the first drawstring 203 to stretch upward, and the semicircular head 202 drives the second drawstring 207 to stretch upward to buffer the pressure driven by the liquid. When the liquid does not expand, the first drawstring 203 and the second drawstring 207 drive the rubber bladder body 201 and the semicircular head 202 to reset, so that the liquid flows back into the pipeline system.
[0053] The second drawstrings 207 tilted upward can provide additional physical support for the bladder body 201, especially preventing it from over-stretching when the bladder body 201 expands. Such support helps to maintain the shape and integrity of the bladder body 201, reduce local stress concentration, and thus reduce the risk of material fatigue and breakage. The fixing ball 206 fixes the bottom of several second drawstrings 207, the rod 208 and the fixing member 209 fix the bottom of the fixing ball 206, and the fixing member 209 is fixed in the mounting tube 204, so that the liquid can pass through the fixing member 209 and enter the inner cavity of the bladder body 201.
[0054] During the system cooling or decompression process, the bladder body 201 needs to retract quickly and completely to its original state. The surrounding second drawstring 207 and the first drawstring 203 can help the bladder body 201 and the semicircular head 202 to return to their original state faster because it provides appropriate resistance to counteract the expansion tendency of the bladder body 201 and the semicircular head 202 without hindering their normal contraction action.
[0055] The second drawstring 207 has the same structure as the first drawstring 203. During the operation of the first drawstring 203, the elastic rope 2031, the inner elastic tube 2032, the spiral reinforcement rope 2033 and the outer elastic tube 2034 are deformed at the same time. The elastic ropes 2031 intertwined with each other provide tension and resilience. The inner elastic tube 2032 is wrapped around the surface of the elastic rope 2031 to prevent the elastic rope 2031 from being damaged by external factors. The spiral reinforcement rope 2033 is wrapped around the surface of the inner elastic tube 2032 to reinforce the first drawstring 203 as a whole. , to avoid excessive stretching and breakage, and to increase its service life, the surface of the spiral reinforcement rope 2033 is coated with lubricating oil to prevent the spiral groove 2035 on the surface of the inner elastic tube 2032 from being worn, and the spiral groove 2035 accommodates the spiral reinforcement rope 2033, and the outer elastic tube 2034 protects the spiral reinforcement rope 2033 and the inner elastic tube 2032 to avoid damage to the outer elastic tube 2034 and the spiral reinforcement rope 2033, and the outer elastic tube 2034 and the inner elastic tube 2032 can assist the elastic rope 2031 in working, thereby improving the overall performance of the first pull belt 203.
[0056] The elastic sleeve 300 is also included. The elastic sleeve 300 is fixedly mounted on the top of the rubber bladder 200 .
[0057] The elastic sleeve 300 includes a semicircular sleeve 301, which is fixedly sleeved on the surface of the semicircular head 202. The surface of the semicircular sleeve 301 is provided with a plurality of through holes 304. The top of the semicircular sleeve 301 is fixedly connected to a conical head 303, and the top of the conical head 303 is fixedly connected to a hanging ring 302.
[0058] The pull member 400 is also included. The pull member 400 is installed on the top of the elastic sleeve 300 , and the top of the pull member 400 is installed on the top of the inner cavity of the expansion tank body 100 .
[0059] The pulling member 400 includes a pulling rope 401, a locking buckle 404 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the pulling rope 401, the locking buckle 404 is installed on the hanging ring 302, a threaded plug rod 405 that passes through the hanging ring 302 is threadedly connected to the locking buckle 404, the top of the pulling rope 401 is fixedly connected to a plate body 403, and pulling rods 402 are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the top of the plate body 403, and the pulling rods 402 are fixedly installed on the top of the inner wall of the upper cover 102.
[0060] The pulling rod 402 and the plate body 403 are fixed in advance on the top of the inner wall of the upper cover 102 to fix the pulling rope 401. The pulling rope 401 is installed on the lifting ring 302 through the lock buckle 404 and the threaded rod 405. When installing the lock buckle 404 and the threaded rod 405, first put the lock buckle 404 on the surface of the lifting ring 302, and then pass the threaded rod 405 through the lifting ring 302 and screw it on the lock buckle 404. The lifting ring 302 is fixed on the semicircular head 202 through the conical head 303 and the semicircular sleeve 301. The shape of the interior of the semicircular sleeve 301 is adapted to the shape of the semicircular head 202 to facilitate the pulling rope 401 to pull the semicircular head 202 as a whole. A through hole 304 is provided on the semicircular sleeve 301 to facilitate the deformation of the semicircular sleeve 301 and the semicircular head 202 to buffer the liquid.
[0061] The length of the pulling rope 401 is 0.1-10 cm. The pulling rope 401 pulled upward can maintain the shape of the rubber bladder body 201 to prevent it from being deformed by the downward pulling force of the first drawstring 203 and the second drawstring 207, so that there is enough space inside to accommodate liquid. In addition, the pulling rope 401 has a variety of different lengths and specifications to prevent the rubber bladder body 201 from being too tight or too loose. A longer pulling rope 401 can reduce the tightness of the rubber bladder body 201, and a shorter pulling rope 401 can increase the tightness of the rubber bladder body 201.
[0062] When the bladder body 201 is over-tightened, the space left for the liquid to expand is reduced, which means that when the liquid in the system expands due to heat, there is not enough extra space to accommodate the increased volume, which directly leads to an increase in the pressure in the system. If the bladder body 201 is too loose, the pressure fluctuations in the system may increase, which is a challenge for pumps and other circulation equipment that rely on stable pressure to work. Unstable fluid flow may cause the efficiency of the pump to decrease, and even cause problems such as cavitation, further affecting the performance of the entire system. Correctly adjusting the tightness of the bladder body 201 can ensure that the pressure in the system is maintained at an optimal level and maintain stable operation of the system.
[0063] Embodiment 2, as Figure 1-Figure 11 As shown, this embodiment provides a method for preparing a novel expansion tank, comprising the following steps:
