[0025] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a pneumatic joint includes a threaded end 1 and a mating port 2, a bellows 3 is detachably fixedly arranged between the threaded end 1 and the mating port 2, a positioning mechanism 4 is fixedly arranged on the upper surface of the bellows 3; the positioning mechanism 4 includes a first curved rod 401, a second curved rod 402, a screw 403 and a nut 404, the lower surfaces of the first curved rod 401 and the second curved rod 402 are respectively fixedly arranged on the upper surface of the bellows 3, the lower surface of the first curved rod 401 and the lower surface of the second curved rod 402 cross and overlap each other and press tightly, the upper surface of the second curved rod 402 is fixedly arranged with a screw 403, the upper end of the screw 403 passes through the first curved rod 401, the outer periphery of the first curved rod 401 is threadedly connected to the nut 404, and the lower surface of the nut 404 presses tightly against the first curved rod 401. A recess 5 is provided on the outer surface of the threaded end 1. The upper surface of the screw rod 403 is integrally provided with a circular block, and the lower surface of the screw rod 403 is welded to the upper surface of the second curved rod 402. A first groove 6 is provided at one end of the threaded end 1, and a first sealing ring 7 is embedded in the first groove 6, and the outer wall of the first sealing ring 7 is pressed against the inner wall of the first groove 6. An internal thread 8 is provided on the inner wall of the threaded end 1. An interlocking groove 11 is provided on the inner wall of the matching port 2, and a third groove 12 is also provided on the inner wall of the matching port 2. A second sealing ring 13 is embedded in the third groove 12, and the outer surface of the second sealing ring 13 is pressed against the inner wall of the third groove 12.
[0026] It should be noted that the recessed portion 5 can be a groove or a concave hole. The bellows 3 is made of soft rubber and is integrally formed by a mold during production. Steel wire can be added to the body of the bellows 3 to ensure flexibility and improve firmness. The lower surfaces of the first curved rod 401 and the second curved rod 402 can be fixedly connected to the upper surface of the matching port 2 by rivets and threaded ends 1, respectively.
[0027] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 In the present application, a second groove 9 is provided on the upper surface of the bellows 3, and a clamp 10 is sleeved in the second groove 9. The inner walls at both ends of the bellows 3 are respectively pressed against the outer surfaces of the threaded end 1 and the matching port 2. Through the above scheme, the clamp 10 is an iron ring, and a bolt is provided at its port. The clamp 10 can be tightened on the bellows 3 by screwing the bolt so that it can be installed with the threaded end 1 and the matching port 2. When disassembling, the bellows 3 can be quickly disassembled by removing the clamp 10.
[0028] Working principle of a pneumatic joint:
[0029] First, the threaded end 1 can be connected to the threaded pipe in the external equipment through the internal thread 8 set on its inner wall. After the threaded end 1 is connected to the equipment, the No. 1 sealing ring 7 increases the sealing performance between the threaded end 1 and the equipment. Then, it can be directly connected to the matching port 2 through the external butt joint pipe. The fitting groove 11 is used to clamp with the convex ring of the butt joint pipe to ensure the firmness of the butt joint pipe and the matching port 2. At the same time, the No. 2 sealing ring 13 can ensure the sealing performance between the butt joint pipe and the matching port 2.
[0030] In the initial state, the lower surface of the nut 404 in the positioning mechanism 4 is pressed against the upper surface of the first curved rod 401, so that the first curved rod 401 and the second curved rod 402 are pressed against each other and cannot rotate, thereby ensuring that the bellows 3 will not bend;
[0031] When the curvature of the bellows 3 needs to be changed, the nut 404 can be loosened so that the nut 404 moves up and no longer presses against the upper surface of the No. 1 bent rod 401. At this time, the No. 1 bent rod 401 and the No. 2 bent rod 402 are no longer pressed against each other, and the matching port 2 can be moved horizontally left and right. After the matching port 2 is moved, the No. 2 bent rod 402 will be driven to rotate under the No. 1 bent rod 401. At the same time, the rotation of the matching port 2 will drive the bellows 3 to bend freely. After determining the ideal angle, the nut 404 can be turned back to its original position again, so that the lower surface of the nut 404 is once again pressed against the upper surface of the No. 1 bent rod 401, so that the No. 2 bent rod 402 and the No. 1 bent rod 401 are pressed against each other and will not rotate, thereby locking the angle of the bent bellows 3 and realizing the angle change of the pneumatic joint, thereby avoiding frequent replacement of the pneumatic joint and reducing the cost of use.
[0032] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention, and are not limitations on the implementation methods of the present invention. For ordinary technicians in the relevant field, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made on the basis of the above description. It is impossible to list all the implementation methods here. All obvious changes or modifications derived from the technical solution of the present invention are still within the protection scope of the present invention.
