Detailed implementation manner

[0021] The present invention provides a pipeline docking structure. The first flange and the second flange connect the connecting pipe and the pipeline to be connected. By adding a sealing ring and a limiting ring outside the mutually connected first flange and second flange, the leak-proof performance at the pipeline connection is further improved.

[0022] As Figures 1 to 6 shown, a pipeline docking structure includes: a connecting pipe 1 for connecting between a pair of pipelines 6 to be connected; two sealing rings 8 respectively sleeved at the connection of the pipeline 6 to be connected and a pair of connecting pipes 1; two limiting rings 9 respectively detachably clamped on the outer circumferences of the two sealing rings 8.

[0023] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 shown, the limiting ring 9 is formed by buckling a first semi-circular ring 91 and a second semi-circular ring 92. Each of the two buckling ends of the first semi-circular ring 91 is provided with a first connecting plate extending radially outward along the limiting ring 9, and each of the two buckling ends of the second semi-circular ring 92 is provided with a second connecting plate extending radially outward along the limiting ring 9. The two first connecting plates are respectively connected to the two second connecting plates through connecting members to realize the buckling connection of the first semi-circular ring 91 and the second semi-circular ring 92.

[0024] As Figure 5 、 Figure 6As shown, the connecting member further includes at least one inserting rod 10 vertically connected to the corresponding first connecting plate. One end of the inserting rod 10 away from the first connecting plate is connected with an elastic member 11 that can expand and contract along a direction perpendicular to the inserting rod 10; a first socket 101 is formed on the corresponding second connecting plate for the inserting rod 10 to penetrate through. Among them, in the contracted state, the elastic member 11 and the inserting rod 10 can jointly penetrate through the first socket 101, and in the reset state, the elastic member 11 can be blocked outside the first socket 101.

[0025] In this embodiment, the elastic member 11 is a return spring.

[0026] As Figure 5 、 Figure 6 shown, a guiding surface facing the first socket 101 is formed at the end of the elastic member 11 away from the inserting rod 10.

[0027] As Figure 5 、 Figure 6 shown, in this embodiment, a slope-shaped block 12 for limiting the inserting rod 10 after the inserting rod 10 is inserted into the first socket 101 is provided at the end of the elastic member 11. The slope surface of the slope-shaped block 12 is the guiding surface. During the process of the slope-shaped block 12 following the inserting rod 10 being inserted into the first socket 101, the guiding surface contacts the edge of the first socket 101, and the elastic member 11 is compressed; after passing through the first socket 101, the slope-shaped block 12 pops out in the reset state of the elastic member 11 and is blocked on the other side of the second connecting plate.

[0028] Preferably, in this embodiment, grooves are formed on the inner sides of both the first semi-circular ring 91 and the second semi-circular ring 92. The sealing ring 8 is also divided into two semi-circles, one is fixed in the groove on the inner side of the first semi-circular ring 91, and the other is fixed in the groove on the inner side of the second semi-circular ring 92.

[0029] Preferably, in this embodiment, as Figure 5 、 Figure 6 shown, three inserting rods 10 are provided on each of the two first connecting plates, and three first sockets 101 adapted thereto are provided on each second connecting plate.

[0030] As Figure 5 、 Figure 6 shown, the connecting member further includes: two inserting plates 13, which are respectively vertically connected to the two first connecting plates of the first semi-circular ring 91. At least one side surface of each inserting plate 13 is covered with a sealing gasket 14; two second sockets for inserting the two inserting plates 13 respectively are provided on the two second connecting plates of the second semi-circular ring 92. By providing the sealing gasket 14, the connection strength between the first semi-circular ring 91 and the second semi-circular ring 92 is further enhanced to improve the sealing degree at the pipe connection.

[0031] As Figures 1 to 4As shown, two first flanges 3 are movably sleeved on the connecting pipe 1, and two second flanges 4 are respectively movably sleeved on a pair of pipes 6 to be butt-jointed. In the state where the connecting pipe 1 is butt-jointed between the pair of pipes 6 to be butt-jointed, by moving the two first flanges 3 to the two ends of the connecting pipe 1 respectively and butt-jointing and connecting them with the two second flanges 4 that have moved to the butt-joint ends of the corresponding pipes 6 to be butt-jointed, two flange pairs that respectively block the joints between the connecting pipe 1 and the pair of pipes 6 to be butt-jointed are formed, and two sealing rings 8 are respectively sleeved on the outer circumferences of the two flange pairs.

[0032] As Figure 1 , Figure 4 shown, a pair of first flange sleeves 2 are externally screwed to the outside of the connecting pipe 1, and the two first flanges 3 are respectively fixedly sleeved on the opposite outer ends of the pair of first flange sleeves 2; a pair of second flange sleeves 5 are externally screwed to the outside of a pair of pipes 6 to be connected, and the two second flanges 4 are respectively fixedly sleeved on the opposite inner ends of the pair of second flange sleeves 5. By providing the first flange sleeves 2 and the second flange sleeves 5, the movement and detachable connection of the first flange 3 and the second flange 4 are realized.

[0033] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 4 shown, it further includes a pair of first external thread segments 171 opened at both ends of the outer surface of the connecting pipe 1; first internal threads adapted to the first external thread segments 171 are respectively opened on the inner walls of the pair of first flange sleeves 2; second external thread segments 172 opened on the outer surface of the connection segments of the pair of pipes 6 to be connected; second internal threads adapted to the second external thread segments 172 are respectively opened on the inner walls of the pair of second flange sleeves 5.

[0034] In this embodiment, when the first flange sleeve 2 and the second flange sleeve 5 rotate along the threads and come into contact with each other, it is necessary to ensure that the connection holes on the first flange sleeve 2 and the connection holes on the second flange sleeve 5 can be aligned to ensure the connection of the first flange sleeve 2 and the second flange sleeve 5.

[0035] As Figure 1 , Figure 4 shown, interface segments are formed by the two ends of the connecting pipe 1 extending relatively outward along the axial direction, and the two interface segments are respectively used for being inserted and externally screwed into a pair of pipes 6 to be butt-jointed.

[0036] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 4 shown, the outer walls of the interface segments are fixedly attached to the inner walls of the connecting pipe 1, third external threads 173 are formed on the outer surfaces of the interface segments, the inner diameters of the pair of pipes 6 to be connected are adapted to the outer diameters of the interface segments and third internal threads 15 adapted to the third external threads 173 are opened on the inner walls.

[0037] By setting an interface section and screwing the interface section to the pipeline 6 to be connected, compared with direct butt-joint, the use of threaded connection can make the connection between the pipeline 6 to be connected and the connecting pipe 1 closer.

[0038] As Figure 1 shown, the butt-joint ends of a pair of pipelines 6 to be butt-jointed extend axially outwards to form a receiving section 7. A pair of first flange sleeves 2 respectively include a small-diameter section at the relatively inner end and a large-diameter section at the relatively outer end. The small-diameter section is screwed to the connecting pipe 1, and a receiving groove 16 for the receiving section 7 to be inserted is formed between the large-diameter section and the connecting pipe 1. Two first flanges 3 are respectively fixed to the relatively outer ends of the two large-diameter sections.

[0039] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, the receiving section 7 is a fixed sleeve, and the fixed sleeve is a reducing sleeve with a diameter gradually increasing from small to large along the extending direction. The maximum diameter of the reducing sleeve is adapted to the inner diameter of the large-diameter section to make up for the radial gap of the receiving groove 16 and prevent leakage.

[0040] When the present invention is in use, the connecting pipe 1 is connected between two pipelines 6 to be connected, and the two pipelines 6 to be connected are communicated with both ends of the connecting pipe 1 through the butt-joint between the first flange 3 and the second flange 4. A sealing ring 8 and a limiting ring 9 are sleeved outside the connected first flange 3 and second flange 4 to further improve the sealing degree of the connection part and prevent water from leaking out from the connection node between the connecting pipe 1 and the pipeline 6 to be connected. When installing the limiting ring 9, the insertion plate 10 at the end of the first semi-circular ring 91 is inserted into the first socket 101 on the second semi-circular ring 92. The slope of the slope-shaped block 10 on the insertion plate 10 contacts the edge of the first socket 101 to drive the return spring 11 to compress. When the insertion rod 10 extends into the first socket 101, the slope-shaped block 12 is disengaged from the edge of the first socket 101, and the elastic member 11 resets. The slope-shaped block 12 blocks the other side of the first socket to lock the first semi-circular ring 91 and the second semi-circular ring 92. When it is necessary to disassemble the limiting ring 9, only need to manually press down the slope-shaped block 12 to compress the elastic member 11, and while keeping pressing, manually separate the first semi-circular ring 91 and the second semi-circular ring 92, then the disassembly of the limiting ring 9 can be realized.

[0041] Finally, it should be noted that: the above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, for those skilled in the art, they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
