DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0020] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:
[0021] like Figure 1 to Figure 4 As shown, a gas pipeline connection device includes a left pipeline 1 and a right pipeline 2 with opposite ends; and also includes a protective member; the opposite ends of the left pipeline 1 and the right pipeline 2 are respectively connected with a left flange 3 and a right flange 4, and the left flange 3 and the right flange 4 are of the same shape and size. The left flange 3 is a circular ring body with an inner diameter equal to the inner diameter of the left pipeline 1 and an outer diameter greater than the outer diameter of the left pipeline 1. An elastic pad is fixed on the right side surface of the left flange 3. The left flange 3 and the right flange 4 are opposite to each other on the left and right, and are connected by a plurality of connecting bolts 5; the upper ends of the outer annular surfaces of the left flange 3 and the right flange 4 are each provided with a U-shaped groove 6, and the upper end and left and right ends of the U-shaped groove 6 are open. The protective part includes a protective ring 7, a vertical plate 8, a screw 9 and a pressure rod 10. The left flange 3 and the right flange 4 are jointly covered with a protective ring 7. The vertical plate 8 is fixedly connected to the left side of the left flange 3. A strip hole 11 is provided on the vertical plate 8. The lower end of the screw 9 is rotatably connected to the bottom surface of the strip hole 11, and the upper end passes through the vertical plate 8 on the upper side of the strip hole 11. The upper end of the screw 9 is connected to a rotating plate 12. The pressure rod 10 is a rectangular rod. The left end of the pressure rod 10 extends into the strip hole 11 and is threadedly connected to the screw 9. The right part of the pressure rod 10 extends into the U-shaped groove 6 of the left flange 3 and the right flange 4. The right part of the pressure rod 10 presses the upper end of the protective ring 7 downward, and the upper end of the protective ring 7 is U-shaped and located in the two U-shaped grooves 6.
[0022] The left ends of the front and rear side surfaces of the pressure rod 10 are in sliding contact with the front and rear side surfaces of the strip hole 11 respectively, and there are equal spacings between the front and rear side surfaces of the pressure rod 10 and the front and rear side surfaces of the U-shaped groove 6 respectively; the front side surface of the U-shaped groove 6 on the left flange 3 and the outer annular surface of the left flange 3 intersect in a circular arc transition, and the rear side surface of the U-shaped groove 6 and the outer annular surface of the left flange 3 intersect in a circular arc transition.
[0023] The protective ring 7 is an elastic annular body made of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene. The expanded polytetrafluoroethylene has the advantages of corrosion resistance, flexibility and elasticity. When the protective ring 7 is in a natural state, the inner diameter of the protective ring 7 matches the outer diameter of the left flange 3.
[0024] A sealing member is provided between the left flange 3 and the right flange 4; the sealing member comprises a sealing ring 13, an elastic ring 14 and a groove 15, wherein the sealing ring 13 is a circular ring body, and the sealing ring 13 is coaxially fixedly connected to the right side surface of the left flange 3, and the elastic ring 14 is a circular ring body made of elastic rubber, and the elastic ring 14 is wrapped and fixed to the outside of the sealing ring 13 through an annular groove opened on the left side surface, and a circular groove 15 is recessed to the right on the left side surface of the right flange 4, and the groove 15 and the sealing ring 13 are opposite to each other on the left and right sides, and the left end opening width of the groove 15 is greater than the inner bottom width, and the right parts of the sealing ring 13 and the elastic ring 14 extend into the groove 15.
[0025] The left end opening width of the clamping groove 15 matches the inner and outer ring distance of the elastic ring 14 , and the inner bottom width of the clamping groove 15 is greater than the inner and outer ring distance of the sealing ring 13 .
[0026] The elastic pad includes an elastic pad 16 and an elastic pad 2 17 . The elastic pad 16 is fixed to the right side of the left flange 3 outside the elastic ring 14 , and the elastic pad 2 17 is fixed to the right side of the left flange 3 inside the elastic ring 14 .
[0027] The end of each connecting bolt 5 passes through the left flange 3, the elastic pad 16 and the right flange 4 in sequence, and the end of each connecting bolt 5 is limited by a nut 18.
[0028] During installation, since the left end of the pressure rod 10 slides in contact with the strip hole 11, when the screw 9 is rotated, the pressure rod 10 can only move upward or downward. The screw 9 is rotated to drive the pressure rod 10 to move upward above the upper end of the left flange. The left flange 3 and the right flange 4 are connected by a plurality of connecting bolts 5. When the nut 18 on each connecting bolt 5 is tightened, the left flange 3 and the right flange 4 move relative to each other, and the elastic pads 1 and 2 on the right side of the left flange 3 are squeezed to form a seal between the left flange 3 and the right flange 4. During the relative movement of the left flange 3 and the right flange 4, the sealing ring 13 drives the right part of the elastic ring 14 to extend into the slot 15. Since the left end opening width of the slot 15 matches the inner and outer ring distances of the elastic ring 14, the left end opening width of the slot 15 is greater than the inner bottom width, and the elastic ring 14 entering the slot 15 is squeezed. The extruded elastic ring 14 forms a seal again between the left flange 3 and the right flange 4, further improving the sealing performance; after the left flange 3 and the right flange 4 are connected by the connecting bolts 5, the protective ring 7 is sleeved on the outside of the left flange 3 and the right flange 4. At this time, the protective ring 7 is in a natural state, and the screw 9 is rotated in the opposite direction to drive the pressure rod 10 to move downward. The pressure rod 10 moves downward to press the upper end of the protective ring 7 in a U shape and enters the two U-shaped grooves 6. The protective ring 7 is stretched and wrapped around the outside of the left flange 3 and the right flange 4 to block the gap between the left flange 3 and the right flange 4, which can not only further improve the sealing performance between the left flange 3 and the right flange 4, but also prevent external factors from corroding the elastic pad 16 and the elastic pad 2 17 through the gap between the flange 3 and the right flange 4, thereby improving the service life of the elastic pad 16 and the elastic pad 2 17;
[0029] Therefore, after the left flange 3 and the right flange 4 are connected, the utility model is protected by the protective ring, which can improve the sealing performance of the connection between the left pipeline 1 and the right pipeline 2.
[0030] The preferred implementation modes of the present invention are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings; however, the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments. Without violating the spirit of the present invention, i.e., the disclosure scope, any equivalent or equivalent deformation or replacement of the technical solution of the present invention shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
