Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field related to bellows, and particularly relates to a bellows connecting assembly. Background Art

[0002] The types of corrugated pipes are roughly divided into: plastic corrugated pipes and metal corrugated pipes. Metal corrugated pipes are divided into galvanized and non-galvanized types. Conventional large corrugated pipes are mostly used for underground use, and most of them are double-walled corrugated pipes. Double-walled corrugated pipes are a new type of lightweight pipe made of high-density polyethylene. They have the characteristics of light weight, high pressure resistance, good toughness, fast construction, and long life. Their characteristics enable them to replace cement pipes, metal pipes, etc. However, for pipelines, their length is necessarily limited, and all pipelines must be connected, but there are still the following disadvantages in the actual connection operation:

[0003] 1. Conventional pipe connections are mostly connected by connecting components such as joints to make the two pipes pass through and seal and fix. However, this type of structure is not practical for bellows. Usually, the connection of bellows is to bond the outer walls of the ends of the two bellows into the same ring-shaped connecting component to achieve the connection. The connection effect of this method is extremely low and it is easy to cause the problem of insufficient sealing. There is no support inside, so it is easy to loosen after long-term use, and the fixing effect is insufficient;

[0004] 2. If one annular tubular connection assembly is used to connect two bellows, it is impossible to perform reinforcement and maintenance operations on the inside of the bellows. If two annular tubular connection assemblies are used to connect two bellows, the two annular tubular connection assemblies need to be connected to each other. Usually, they are locked by means of threads, etc. However, during long-term use, they may become loose due to factors such as vibration and need further reinforcement. Utility Model Content

[0031] The reinforcement assembly 4 includes four arc panels 401 distributed in a circular array, and a sealing gasket 403 is bonded to the outer arc surface of each arc panel 401, and a ladder frame 402 is fixed to the inner arc surface of each arc panel 401; the outer arc surface of the sealing gasket 403 contacts the inner wall of the end of the bellows body 3, and the inner wall of the sealing ring 102 contacts the outer wall of the end of the bellows body 3;

[0032] The end of the bellows body 3 is placed in the main pipe 1, and the outer wall of the bellows body 3 fits the inner wall of the sealing ring 102. The arc panel 401 in the reinforcement component 4 is then abutted against the inner wall of the end of the bellows body 3. At this time, the sealing gasket 403 fits the inner wall of the bellows body 3 and cooperates with the sealing ring 102 to achieve a double sealing effect inside and outside, isolating the influence of external environmental pollution.
