[0004] The above patent uses an epoxy resin layer to achieve encapsulation with the inner wall of the tube to improve the waterproof performance. However, in actual use, the waterproof effect achieved by simply coating the inner surface of the tube with epoxy resin is not perfect and will still cause leakage, which needs to be improved. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide an explosion-proof joint that can solve the above problems.
[0006] The purpose of this application is to provide an explosion-proof joint, comprising:
[0007] A joint, wherein an outer side of the joint is provided with an external thread;
[0008] A pressing piece, the outer wall of which contacts the inner wall of the joint;
[0009] A compression head, wherein the inner wall of the compression head is provided with an internal thread adapted to the joint;
[0010] The sealing structure comprises a first sealing member disposed between the joint and the pressing member and a second sealing member disposed in the pressing member;
[0011] The connector and the inner wall of the pressing member are in contact with the cable, and the first sealing member and the second sealing member are both in contact with the cable.
[0012] The above-mentioned explosion-proof connector includes a connector with external threads, a compression piece in close contact with the inner wall of the connector, and a compression head with an adapted internal thread. The use of the two components can ensure that the connector will not loosen or leak due to external pressure or impact when working in a harsh or explosive environment, thereby greatly improving the explosion-proof safety. By setting two sets of sealing structures, namely the first seal and the second seal, which are respectively located between the connector and the compression piece and inside the compression piece, the double sealing design effectively prevents the intrusion of external media such as liquid, gas or dust, and ensures the high sealing of the cable connection. At the same time, the direct contact between these seals and the cable further enhances the sealing effect and reduces the risk of sealing failure due to cable movement or vibration.
[0013] At the same time, the design of the external thread joint and the internal thread clamping head makes the installation of the joint simple and quick, and is also convenient for subsequent maintenance and replacement. It has significant effects and advantages in improving the explosion-proof safety of equipment, simplifying the installation and maintenance process, and broadening the scope of application.
[0014] Furthermore, the first sealing member comprises:
[0015] A fastener, comprising a ring body and a tightening claw arranged on the ring body;
[0016] A pressure ring is provided on the fastener, contacts with the tightening claw and is used to press the tightening claw;
[0017] Wherein, an abutment ring in contact with the pressure ring is arranged on the inner wall of the joint, and the abutment ring contacts and squeezes the pressure ring.
[0018] The fastener includes a ring body and a tightening claw. The ring body is used to support the tightening claw. The supporting claw has elasticity or deformability so that it can shrink or deform inward when subjected to external force. The pressure ring is placed on the fastener and is in direct contact with the tightening claw. When the pressure ring is subjected to external force, that is, when it is squeezed by the connector, it squeezes the tightening claw, causing it to shrink inward and fit tightly on the surface of the cable. The abutment ring is set on the inner wall of the connector and is in direct contact with the pressure ring. When the pressure ring is tightened, it squeezes the abutment ring. The mutual squeezing force not only enhances the contact tightness between the pressure ring and the abutment ring, but also transmits the force to the tightening claw through the pressure ring, so that the tightening claw fits more closely on the cable.
[0019] During the installation process, as the tightening force increases, the pressure ring gradually squeezes the tightening claws, causing them to shrink inward and fit tightly on the cable. At the same time, the pressure ring also squeezes the abutment ring, enhancing the stability of the entire sealing structure. Together, they form an effective sealing barrier, effectively preventing the intrusion of external media.
[0020] Furthermore: a chamber is provided between the joint and the fastener, a connecting piece is provided in the chamber, one end of the connecting piece contacts the clamping piece, the other end extends toward the pressing ring and contacts the pressing ring, and the inner wall of the connecting piece contacts the outer wall of the ring body.
[0021] A chamber is provided between the joint and the fastener to accommodate and protect the internal components. The connector is provided in the chamber, one end of which contacts the pressing member, and the other end extends toward the pressing ring and contacts the pressing ring, so that the connector can simultaneously connect and fix the pressing member and the pressing ring to form a stable structure. At the same time, the inner wall of the connector contacts the outer wall of the ring body, which enhances the connection strength between the connector and the surrounding components and makes the entire structure more stable.
[0022] Furthermore, the second sealing member comprises:
[0023] An elastic ring, arranged between the pressing member and the cable, having a semicircular cross section;
[0024] The corrugated tube is arranged between the compression piece and the cable, and its inner wall is in close contact with the cable;
[0025] Wherein, the elastic ring and the bellows are arranged at intervals.
[0026] The second seal includes an elastic ring and a bellows. The elastic ring is arranged between the compression piece and the cable. Its cross section is semicircular, which helps to provide uniform compression force while maintaining a certain elasticity. It maintains contact with the cable through its elasticity, thereby providing an additional sealing effect to prevent water, dust or other contaminants from entering the cable connection. The bellows is arranged between the compression piece and the cable, and its inner wall is in close contact with the cable, ensuring close contact between the cable and the bellows, thereby improving the sealing performance, protecting the connection with the cable from erosion by the external environment, and reducing the risk of damage to the cable. The combination of the elastic ring and the bellows provides multi-level sealing protection for the cable connection, ensuring the safe operation and long-term stability of the cable.
[0027] Furthermore, the clamping member is provided with a mounting ring groove for mounting the elastic member, and the inner wall of the clamping member is provided with a clamping groove for mounting the corrugated tube.
[0028] The mounting ring groove is arranged on the clamping member, which can provide a mounting base for the elastic member and be used to fix and install the elastic member. When the clamping member is tightened, the elastic member can remain in the correct position without displacement or falling off, and can play its sealing role.
[0029] Furthermore, a sealing ring is provided between the pressing head and the joint.
[0030] The sealing effect can be further improved by arranging a sealing ring between the compression head and the joint. The sealing ring material can be rubber, silicone, polytetrafluoroethylene, etc.
[0031] The beneficial effects of this application are:
[0032] 1. By setting two sets of sealing structures, namely the first seal and the second seal, which are respectively located between the joint and the compression member and inside the compression member, the double sealing design effectively prevents the intrusion of external media such as liquid, gas or dust, ensuring the high sealing of the cable connection. At the same time, the direct contact between these seals and the cable further enhances the sealing effect and reduces the risk of sealing failure caused by cable movement or vibration;
[0033] 2. During the installation process, as the tightening force increases, the pressure ring gradually squeezes the tightening claws, causing them to shrink inward and fit tightly on the cable. At the same time, the pressure ring also squeezes the abutment ring, enhancing the stability of the entire sealing structure. Together, they form an effective sealing barrier, effectively preventing the intrusion of external media;
[0034] 3. The combination of elastic rings and bellows provides multi-level sealing protection for cable connections, ensuring safe operation and long-term stability of the cables. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
