[0028] In specific implementation, by inserting the limiting screw 5 into the through hole 3 and installing the flange 2 on the pipeline, the expansion joint can be installed on the boiler evaporator, and the sealing ring 7 seals the interface of the flange 2.

[0029] Embodiment 2

[0030] See also Figure 1-Figure 6 and Figure 8 On the basis of the first embodiment, the flange 2 is provided with a limiting mechanism 8 near the limiting screw 5, the positioning mechanism 9 and the outer side of the bellows 1 are provided with a protective mechanism 6, the positioning mechanism 9 is provided with a docking hole 12 on the side close to the protective mechanism 6, the positioning mechanism 9 includes a stopper 901, a return spring 902 and a fixing block 903, the outer side of the flange 2 is fixed with a fixing block 903, the inner side of the fixing block 903 is slidably penetrated by the stopper 901, the outer side of the stopper 901 is penetrated by the return spring 902, and the docking hole 12 is provided with a stopper 901, a return spring 902 and a stopper 901. 2 is opened on one side of the fixed block 903, the limiting mechanism 8 includes a supporting spring 801, a limiting rod 802 and a sliding groove 803, the interior of the flange 2 is provided with a sliding groove 803, the interior of the sliding groove 803 is provided with a supporting spring 801, a limiting rod 802 is provided on one side of the supporting spring 801, the limiting rod 802 and the sliding groove 803 are in sliding connection, a limiting hole 10 is opened on one side of the limiting screw 5, a mounting screw 13 is provided on the outer side of the protective mechanism 6, and the cross-sectional shape of the limiting rod 802 is "L"-shaped.

[0031] In specific implementation, when installing the expansion joint on the boiler evaporator, the staff needs to align the flange of the pipe with the flange of the expansion joint, and it needs to be manually supported all the time, and then the flanges are connected by bolts, which is troublesome, and a lot of bolts need to be carried, and the bolts are easy to lose, which reduces the installation and connection efficiency of the expansion joint.

[0032] Embodiment 3

[0033] See also Figure 1-Figure 5 and Figure 7On the basis of the second embodiment, the protection mechanism 6 includes a docking block 601, a No. 1 protective cover 602, an extension cover 603 and a No. 2 protective cover 604. The outer sides of the fixed block 903 and the bellows 1 are provided with a No. 1 protective cover 602 and a No. 2 protective cover 604. The No. 1 protective cover 602 is connected to the extension cover 603 on the side close to the No. 2 protective cover 604. The extension cover 603 and the No. 2 protective cover 604 are slidably connected. The No. 1 protective cover 602 and the No. 2 protective cover 604 are both connected to the docking block 601 on the side close to the fixed block 903. The docking hole 12 and the docking block 601 are plug-in structures.

The shapes of the No. 1 protective cover 602, the extension cover 603 and the No. 2 protective cover 604 are all arc-shaped.

[0034] In specific implementation, since most expansion joints do not have a protective structure on the outside, some objects may directly collide with the outside of the expansion joint during use, causing damage to the expansion joint. The docking block 601 can be inserted into the docking hole 12, so that the No. 1 protective cover 602 and the No. 2 protective cover 604 are plugged into the outside of the bellows 1 and the flange 2, and then the mounting screw 13 is installed at both ends of the No. 1 protective cover 602 and the No. 2 protective cover 604. The No. 1 protective cover 602 and the No. 2 protective cover 604 can be quickly installed on the outside of the expansion joint to protect the expansion joint and prevent objects from directly colliding with the expansion joint. When the bellows 1 extends to both ends, it will also drive the extension cover 603 to slide in the built-in groove of the No. 2 protective cover 604, which will not affect the extension of the bellows 1, thereby improving the safety of the boiler evaporator expansion joint and extending its service life.

[0035] In actual use, the flange 2 can be installed on the flange of the pipeline through the positioning mechanism 9 and the limiting mechanism 8, and then the position of the limiting screw 5 can be tightened by the fastening ring 11 to facilitate quick connection, and then the protective mechanism 6 can be installed on the outside of the flange 2 and the bellows 1 to protect the expansion joint. When in use, the expansion joint is used to compensate for linear or angular changes caused by temperature changes, mechanical vibrations and other factors to protect the pipeline. The setting of the positioning mechanism 9 and the protective mechanism 6 improves the installation convenience and safety of the boiler evaporator expansion joint.
