Two symmetrically arranged grooves are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the connecting ring 3. The card block 6 is located in the groove, and an elastic component is provided between the card block 6 and the inner wall of the groove. The end of the card block 6 is inserted into the slot, and the card block 6 is a wedge-shaped block. The elastic component includes a slide plate 7. Slide grooves are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the groove. The slide plate 7 is slidably arranged in the slide groove and is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slide groove by a spring 8. The cross-section of the slide plate 7 is rectangular.

[0035] Before fixing the position of the connecting ring 3, fix the connecting ring 3, and bring the straight pipe 1 and the curved pipe 2 that need to be connected to the connecting ring 3 close to and insert into the connecting ring 3. Since the side wall of the clamping block 6 is arranged in an inclined surface, when the straight pipe 1 and the curved pipe 2 contact the clamping block 6, the clamping block 6 is pushed and drives the slide plate 7 to squeeze the spring 8 in the slide groove, so that the clamping block 6 enters the groove.

[0038] After the expansion joint body is assembled, the flange ring 9 can be put on the outside of the straight pipe 1, and the retaining ring 10 can be made in contact with the straight pipe 1. At this time, the positioning rod 14 is inserted into the positioning groove 13 to fix the position of the flange ring 9. At this time, under the setting of the sealing ring 15, the sealing between the flange ring 9 and the straight pipe 1 is guaranteed. Finally, through the connection of the second double-headed screw 11 and the second bolt 12, the flange ring 9 can be connected to the connecting ring 3 and the expansion joint body to ensure that the collision body as a whole can be used stably.
