Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of bellows expansion joints, in particular to a variable diameter bellows expansion joint. Background Art

[0002] Bellows expansion joint, also called compensator or expansion joint, is an expansion joint made of metal bellows, which consists of bellows (an elastic element) and flange, guide tube and other accessories. By utilizing the effective expansion and contraction deformation of the bellows, it can expand and contract along the pipeline axis and allow a small amount of bending to compensate for the assembly errors caused by axial, lateral and angular displacements, and is used for axial length compensation on pipelines.

[0003] The existing announcement number CN220849820U discloses a variable diameter bellows expansion joint for the exhaust pipeline of the main engine of a ship. The bellows expansion joint adopts different flanges at both ends to achieve diameter change; but it does not achieve the real diameter change of the pipeline. Therefore, how to realize the function of the expansion joint and achieve the real diameter change function of the pipeline is a technical problem we want to solve. For this reason, we propose a variable diameter bellows expansion joint. Utility Model Content

[0006] Preferably, the diameter of the reducer body at the second flange plate is greater than the diameter of the reducer body at the third flange plate, and the reducer body, the second flange plate and the third flange plate are an integrated structure.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0011] 1. Use a reducer pipe. The diameter of the reducer body at the second flange plate is larger than the diameter of the reducer body at the third flange plate. By changing the inner diameter of the pipe, the bellows expansion joint can achieve true diameter change instead of simply changing the flange diameter.

[0012] 2. The annular grooves on the outside of the telescopic tube body are welded with reinforcing ribs, which can protect the telescopic joint of the telescopic tube body and extend the reciprocating service life of the telescopic tube body.

[0013] 3. Both ends of the telescopic tube body are provided with vertical structures, the second flange plate is provided with an annular slot matching one of the vertical structures, and the other vertical structure is welded to the outside of the first flange plate, so that the telescopic tube body can be stably installed.
