The function of the sealing ring 7 is to prevent grease leakage and has a certain blocking and limiting effect. A flexible tube 8 is plugged and installed inside the slide tube 5.
[0027] An elastic sealing anti-corrosion expansion joint, the sealing ring 7 includes an outer sealing ring 701 and an inner sealing ring 702, which are respectively used to seal the inner side and the outer side of the sliding pipe 5. The outer sealing ring 701 and the inner sealing ring 702 are respectively arranged on the outer side and the inner side of the sliding pipe 5 and are tightly connected to prevent grease leakage.
[0028] An elastic sealing anti-corrosion expansion joint, further comprising:
[0029] Flange assembly, flange assembly is an assembly for external pipes. The flange assembly includes a first flange 1 and a second flange 17 installed on both sides of the flexible pipe protection assembly, which are used to dock the input pipe and the output pipe respectively. The first flange 1 is provided with a first slot 13 on the periphery, and the first slot 13 and the second slot 20 are used to dock and install the slide bar 14; a first butt joint pipe 11 is provided on one side of the first flange 1, and the first butt joint pipe 11 and the second butt joint pipe 18 are used to dock and install pipes respectively. A first screw hole 12 is provided inside the first butt joint pipe 11, a second slot 20 is provided around the second flange 17, a second butt joint pipe 18 is provided on one side of the second flange 17, and a second screw hole 19 is provided inside the second butt joint pipe 18.
[0030] An elastic sealing anti-corrosion expansion joint, wherein an input pipe is butt-jointedly installed inside a first screw hole 12 of a first butt joint pipe 11, and an output pipe is butt-jointedly installed inside a second screw hole 19 of a second butt joint pipe 18, wherein the input pipe and the output pipe are respectively the parts for fluid input and output.
[0031] An elastic sealing anti-corrosion expansion joint, further comprising:
[0032] The positioning buffer assembly is used to achieve the structural positioning effect of the device. The positioning buffer assembly includes a slide bar 14 slidably installed inside the first slot 13 and the second slot 20, and the slide bar 14 is a rigid support component; a limit plate 15 is installed at the end of the slide bar 14, and a spring 16 is connected and installed between the limit plate 15 and the flange, and the spring 16 plays a buffering effect through the limit plate 15.
[0033] An elastic sealing anti-corrosion expansion joint, a positioning buffer component, a flange component and a flexible pipe protection component are all arranged in a symmetrical structure, and the symmetrical structure has a certain stability.
[0034] An elastic sealing anti-corrosion expansion joint, wherein the casing 2, the inner tube 4, the sliding tube 5, the piston 6 and the sealing ring 7 are all made of anti-corrosion materials to prevent the medium from being corroded during the transmission process. An elastic joint 9 is arranged on the surface of the flexible tube 8.
[0035] In the actual creation process of the utility model, in order to avoid the following defects in the prior art: "The expansion joints of the prior art mainly use exposed flexible tubes for elastic expansion and contraction adjustment, but the flexible tubes may cause self-corrosion due to the corrosiveness of the conveyed fluid during long-term use. If such corrosion cannot be repaired in time, there may be a risk of leakage of the conveyed fluid." A flexible tube protection component is specifically proposed;
[0036] When in use, the input end and the output end of the pipeline are respectively connected to the first screw hole 12 and the second screw hole 19 of the first pair of pipes 11 and the second pair of pipes 18 to achieve the connection of the main pipeline; the fluid inside the pipeline is transported through the flexible tube 8; when the pipeline expands or contracts due to various reasons, the elastic knot 9 on the surface of the flexible tube 8 can buffer this deformation to avoid the risk of direct collapse of the pipeline, which is also the main function of the expansion joint.
[0037] However, when transporting some corrosive liquids, the material of the flexible tube 8 itself may cause some corrosion during long-term use, thereby causing leakage. Therefore, we set up a flexible tube protection component:
[0038] The flexible pipe protection component is mainly composed of: sleeve 2, slide 3, inner tube 4, slide 5, piston 6 and sealing ring 7, among which sleeve 2 and inner tube 4 are fixed together, and the slide 3 set in the middle part can allow the slide 5 to slide inside it; in order to ensure that the slide 5 can be sealed and slide slowly, we added grease inside the slide 3, and the grease can avoid the problem of large-scale leakage. We use outer sealing ring 701 and inner sealing ring 702 to seal the inner and outer sides of the slide 3 respectively. We installed piston 6 at the end of the slide 5, and the piston 6 can slide in a sealed manner inside the slide 3, thereby simulating the expansion and contraction effect of the pipeline during thermal expansion and contraction. The two sides of this protection component are respectively connected to the first flange 17 and the second flange 17 for external pipelines.
[0039] In order to ensure the stability of the device, we have opened a corresponding slot on the surface of the flange and slidably installed a slide rod 14 inside the slot; in order to make the slide rod 14 also have a certain buffering effect, we have set a limit plate 15 on the top of the slide rod 14, and the spring 16 connected and installed between the limit plate 15 and the flange can have a buffering effect on the slide rod 14.
