The metal sealing ring 2 is sleeved on the outside of the center ring 3, and the quick-release flanges 1 are pressed against the metal sealing ring by fasteners.
[0029] In this embodiment, a metal sealing ring 2 and a center ring 3 matched with the metal sealing ring 2 are provided. The metal sealing ring 2 is sleeved on the outside of the center ring 3. The center ring 3 positions the quick-release flange 1 and the metal sealing ring 2, so that the metal sealing ring 2 and the center ring 3 are both arranged between the sealing surfaces of the two quick-release flanges 1. The quick-release flanges 1 are connected by fasteners, and the inner cavity of the quick-release flanges 1 is sealed and connected by the metal sealing ring 2 and the center ring 3. The high temperature resistance of the metal sealing ring 2 can reach 800°C, which improves the service life of the sealing ring and increases the vacuum performance between the quick-release flanges.
[0030] The inner wall of the quick release flange 1 is provided with a positioning groove 101, and the center ring 3 is constrained in the positioning groove 101. The inner wall of the quick release flange is provided with a positioning groove, which is opened on the sealing end surface of the quick release flange for positioning on the center ring.

[0044] The contact surfaces between the quick-release flange 1 and the pressing piece 4 in this embodiment match each other. This embodiment selects the inclined surface matching method and sets the quick-release flange 1 as an inclined surface. The contact area can be increased and a wedge-shaped gap can be formed through the matching of the inclined surface. The pressing piece 4 increases the pressure on the quick-release flange 1 compared with the plane matching, thereby further improving the sealing effect between the quick-release flanges.
[0045] A pipeline is arranged in the quick-release flange 1. The metal sealing ring 2 and the center ring 3 arranged in the quick-release flange 1 improve the positioning accuracy and heat resistance of the quick-release flange 1 and the performance of the pipeline connection.
