[0002] An air duct is a piping system used for air transportation and distribution. According to the cross-sectional shape, the air duct can be divided into circular air duct, rectangular air duct, oblate air duct and the like. Currently, in the process of connecting the air duct, the flanges at both ends of the air duct are mostly fixedly connected by bolts. However, this connection method is relatively simple, and the bolts are prone to loosening after long-term use. Once the bolts are loosened, the tightness of the connection between the two flanges will be affected. In this way, leakage will occur when the airflow flows in the air duct, thereby affecting the circulation of the airflow inside the air duct. For this reason, the present application proposes an air duct flange connection structure that is easy to install. Utility Model Content

[0004] Furthermore, each notch is provided with a first screw hole that passes through the flange, and each connecting piece is provided with a second screw hole on both sides. When the connecting piece is engaged in the two notches, the second screw hole on the connecting piece is aligned with the first screw hole in the notch, and a first bolt is inserted between the corresponding first screw hole and the second screw hole.

[0005] Furthermore, screw grooves are provided at the top and bottom of the two flanges, and two third screw holes are provided at the top and bottom of the ring. A second bolt is threadedly inserted in each third screw hole, and each second bolt passes through the third screw hole and is threadedly inserted in the corresponding screw grooves at the top and bottom of the two flanges.

[0008] Furthermore, a sealing gasket is arranged between the two flanges.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0010] First, connect the flanges at one end of the two pipe bodies together so that the notches on both sides of the two flanges are aligned. Then, engage the connector in the aligned notches of the two flanges and use the first bolt to complete the connection. Then, put the ring on the two flanges and use the second bolt to fix the position of the ring, thereby preventing the connector from loosening in the notch, thereby increasing the stability of the connection between the two flanges.
