AI Technical Summary
Existing pipe joints have low pressure resistance, are prone to leakage or detachment, and cannot meet market demands.
The system employs a snap ring and top sleeve structure. The top sleeve is forcibly opened by a spreading tool and then snaps into the main body. After the top sleeve is snapped into the main body, it can move. The end of the top sleeve pushes the snap ring to release the restriction on tube removal. The design of the snap ring, which utilizes the ductility of the metal material and the elasticity of the metal material, enhances the connection stability.
The pressure resistance of the connector has been improved, enabling it to withstand pressures of up to 16 MPa without disengaging, significantly enhancing the quality and reliability of the product.

[0023] The protrusion 401 on the top sleeve 400 in the embodiment is provided around the top sleeve 400, which further ensures that the pressure that can be borne is larger, and the sidewall of the top sleeve 400 in the embodiment has no opening, so that the top sleeve 400 is not easy to be deformed by external force, further improving the pressure that the top sleeve 400 can bear.
[0024] The clamping spring 200 in the embodiment includes a clamping portion 201 clamped in the ring groove in the main body 100 and a locking portion 202 extending inwardly and arranged obliquely to the pipe insertion direction to form a barb. The clamping spring 200 is of elastic material as a whole, and the clamping spring 200 in the embodiment is a metal sheet. The locking portion 202 is a plurality of portions and is uniformly distributed on the inner wall of the clamping portion 201. The oblique angle of the locking portion 202 is any value between 30-75 degrees. The elasticity and angle of the locking portion 202 of the clamping spring 200 can ensure that the pipe can be easily inserted and that the pipe will not be separated from the clamping spring 200 when subjected to a large internal pressure. The pipe will move in the direction of being pulled out when subjected to internal pressure, and will press the clamping spring 200 in the movement process. The rear end of the clamping spring 200 cannot continue to move in this direction due to the influence of the top sleeve 400, and thus can withstand a large pressure. In the embodiment, the violent test can withstand a pressure of 16 MPa without being pulled out.
[0025] The top sleeve 400 in the embodiment is of metal material, and the inherent characteristics of the metal material are used to generate stretching or deformation when subjected to strong pressure, so that the position of the protrusion 401 of the top sleeve 400 is expanded, and thus a clamping is formed. The expansion tool in the embodiment includes a plurality of radial movable expansion blocks. The expansion blocks are driven to move outward from the inside to forcibly expand the protrusion 401 of the top sleeve 400. After expansion, the expansion blocks are retracted and then withdrawn from the main body 100. The radial movement of the expansion blocks can be achieved by pushing with an axially movable conical rod. When the position of the conical rod with a large diameter moves to the position of the expansion blocks, the expansion blocks will be pushed to move radially. The axial movement of the conical rod is driven by a motor or a cylinder. The expansion tool in the application is a conventional technology, which is widely used in the mechanical field, and will not be described in detail here.
[0026] The main body 100 in the embodiment is provided with symmetrical top sleeves 400, clamping springs 200 and sealing rings 300 at both ends, so that the pipe can be inserted into the main body 100 at both ends.
