[0019] In order to further explain the technical means and effects adopted by the present invention to achieve the predetermined purpose of the utility model, the specific implementation method, structure, characteristics and effects of the present invention are described in detail below in combination with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0020] Example: Please refer to Figure 1-2 A gas pipeline fastening connection device comprises a flange 18 fixed to a pipeline 2 and a clamping unit 1 connected to an end of a connecting pipe 3. The clamping unit 1 comprises a clamping head 4 connected to the connecting pipe 3. The clamping head 4 is provided with a first blind hole 8 which is clearance-matched with the flange 18. The flange 18 is located at the inner bottom of the first blind hole 8. A locking ring 6 is rotatably connected to the clamping head 4. A moving ring 15 is threadedly connected to the outer circle of the locking ring 6. The moving ring 15 is slidably connected to the clamping head 4. The moving ring 15 is circumferentially distributed with a plurality of The clamping head 4 is slidably connected to a plurality of moving blocks 12, and a clamping block 21 for clamping a flange 18 is connected to the moving block 12 through a spring 11. The clamping block 21 penetrates the side wall of the first blind hole 8, and the clamping block 21 is slidably connected to the moving block 12 and a chamfer 19 is provided on the clamping block 21; wherein, there are four moving blocks 12 distributed circumferentially, and in other embodiments, there may be eight or twelve, etc.; and the rotation connection may be in the form of a bearing connection, and the sliding connection may be in the form of a clearance fit; in addition, the connection The connecting pipe 3 is a right-angle elbow or a three-way pipe or a four-way pipe, and the ends of the connecting pipe 3 are connected to the clamping unit 1. In this embodiment, the right-angle elbow is taken as an example. When the bent gas pipeline 2 needs to be connected, the flange 18 is first welded to the two gas pipelines 2, and then the flange 18 is inserted into the first blind hole 8 of the clamping head 4 installed at the end of the right-angle elbow. When the flange 18 is pushed onto the chamfer 19 of the clamping block 21, the clamping block 21 will move outward along the direction of the diameter of the first blind hole 8. When the flange 18 is pushed onto the first blind hole 8, the clamping block 21 will move outward along the direction of the diameter of the first blind hole 8. When the flange 18 is at the bottom of the hole 8, the clamping block 21 is reset under the action of the spring 11, and then the locking ring 6 is rotated, and the movable ring 15 will move along the axial direction, so that the clamping block 21 clamps the flange 18; therefore, the utility model only needs to weld the flange 18 on the gas pipeline 2, and then push the flange 18 into the bottom of the first blind hole 8, and rotate the locking ring 6, thereby reducing the number of welding of the flange 18, and at the same time eliminating the need for manual alignment of the flange 18 and tightening of multiple bolts, thereby improving the laying efficiency of the gas pipeline 2.

[0021] In this embodiment, a driving chamber 14 is provided inside the clamping head 4, one end of the locking ring 6 is located inside the driving chamber 14, and the moving ring 15 is located inside the driving chamber 14. The clamping head 4 is also provided with a plurality of clamping chambers 10 connected with the first blind hole 8, and the clamping block 21 is located inside the clamping chamber 10. The clamping chamber 10 is connected with the driving chamber 14 through the connecting hole 13, and the connecting hole 13 is slidably connected with the moving block 12. A guide column 16 is provided on the moving block 12 inside the clamping chamber 10, and a guide column 16 is provided on the clamping block 21. There is a through hole 17 that matches the guide column 16 with a clearance, and a clearance is set between the top of the guide column 16 and the inner wall of the first blind hole 8. When the flange 18 moves to the chamfer 19 and continues to move to the bottom of the first blind hole 8, the clamping block 21 will squeeze the spring 11 and move downward along the guide column 16. When the clamping block 21 is completely moved into the clamping chamber 10, the flange 18 continues to move to the bottom of the first blind hole 8. When the flange 18 moves to the bottom of the first blind hole 8, the clamping block 21 is reset under the action of the spring 11. After that, the locking ring 6 is rotated, and the moving ring 15 will move, so that the moving block 12 moves, and then the guide column 16 moves, thereby driving the clamping block 21 to clamp the flange 18; the clamping block 21 is embedded in the two side walls of the clamping chamber 10, and a second blind hole 20 is provided on the clamping block 21, and the spring 11 is located inside the second blind hole 20, making the structure of the utility model more compact; a rubber fastening block 9 is fixedly connected to the end surface of the clamping block 21 away from the chamfer 19, which is convenient for elastic clamping of the flange 18 and improves the device service life; one end of the locking ring 6 is located outside the clamping head 4, and a locking hole 5 is provided on the locking ring 6 located outside the clamping head 4. The staff only needs to insert the rotating column into the locking hole 5 to rotate the locking ring 6 by rotating the rotating column, wherein the locking hole 5 can be an anisotropic hole, such as a triangular hole or a hexagonal hole, which is helpful to prevent outsiders from arbitrarily rotating the locking ring 6; a sealing sheet 7 is provided between the first blind hole 8 and the flange 18, and the sealing sheet 7 is fixed to the bottom of the first blind hole 8 by glue to prevent gas leakage.

[0022] How it works

[0023] When the gas pipeline 2 needs to be spliced, the flange 18 is first welded to the gas pipeline 2, and then the flange 18 is inserted into the first blind hole 8 of the clamping head 4. When the flange 18 is pushed onto the chamfer 19 of the clamping block 21, the clamping block 21 will move outward along the diameter direction of the first blind hole 8. When the flange 18 is pushed to the bottom of the first blind hole 8, the clamping block 21 is reset under the action of the spring 11, and then the locking ring 6 is rotated, the moving ring 15 will move, thereby moving the moving block 12, and then the guide column 16 is moved, thereby driving the clamping block 21 to clamp the flange 18; therefore, the utility model only needs to weld the flange 18 on the gas pipeline 2, and then push the flange 18 into the bottom of the first blind hole 8, and rotate the locking ring 6, thereby reducing the number of welding of the flange 18, and at the same time eliminating the need for manual alignment of the flange 18 and tightening of multiple bolts, thereby improving the laying efficiency of the gas pipeline 2.
