[0009] The above solution can prevent the pipeline from being too deep, facilitate the control of the bonding position of the pipeline and the pipe joint, and at the same time keep the inner diameter of the software roughly consistent with the inner diameter of the pipeline, so that the liquid flows more smoothly.
[0010] As a further configuration of the utility model, the side wall in the middle of the soft body bulges away from the axis of the soft body to form a drum-shaped enlarged end.

[0017] By adopting the above solution, the connection strength between the two enlarged ends is increased.
[0018] As a further configuration of the utility model, the cross section of the outer wall of the reinforcement end along the axis of the soft body is in an arc shape.

[0030] The specific implementation of the present invention is as follows Figure 1-2 shown.
[0031] A union-type expansion joint comprises a body 1, two pipe joints 2, two sleeves 3 and two locking caps 4. The body 1 and the pipe joints 2 are both tubular, and the two pipe joints 2 are respectively arranged at two openings of the body 1. The body 1 comprises an annular fixed end 11 arranged at the opening, the pipe joint 2 comprises an abutting end 21 abutting against the fixed end 11, and the outer wall of the pipe joint 2 is provided with a step surface 22. The sleeve 3 is sleeved on the body 1 and the inner diameter of the sleeve 3 is smaller than the outer diameter of the fixed end 11. The outer wall of the sleeve 3 is provided with an external thread 31 on a side close to the fixed end 11. The locking cap 4 is sleeved on the abutting end 21, the fixed end 11 and the sleeve 3 at the same time. The inner wall of the locking cap 4 is provided with an internal thread 41 that can be threadably matched with the external thread 31, and the end of the locking cap 4 away from the sleeve 3 is provided with a bent end 42 that forms a limit with the step surface 22.
[0032] This embodiment can resolve problems such as displacement, stress, vibration, etc. caused by pipeline vibration while facilitating disassembly and assembly, and can compensate for pipeline displacement and deviation, and can compensate for thermal expansion and contraction caused by temperature changes.
[0033] In this embodiment, the soft body 1 is made of soft UPVC rubber and ion cloth composite technology, which has high strength, so that the soft body 1 can better resolve the problem caused by pipeline vibration, and the fixed end 11 has good flexibility. After the assembly of this embodiment, the sealing effect is good. The pipe joint 2 is made of UPVC plastic, which is convenient for bonding.
