[0033] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0034] This application provides a quick-change locking joint, which will be described in detail below. It should be noted that the description order of the following embodiments does not limit the preferred order of the embodiments of this application. And in the following embodiments, each embodiment is described with its own emphasis. For the parts not detailed in a certain embodiment, reference can be made to the relevant descriptions of other embodiments.

[0035] To solve the technical problems in the prior art that the joint has poor sealing effect when connecting adjacent medical pipelines, cannot be quickly locked, and cannot withstand high pressure, an embodiment of this application provides a quick-change locking joint. The following is a detailed elaboration.

[0036] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, a quick-change locking joint includes

[0037] a valve body 1, a valve cavity is opened in the valve body 1, and the valve cavity penetrates through the valve body 1 from front to back;

[0038] a valve cover 2, a perforation is opened on the valve cover 2, a puncture film 21 is arranged in the valve cover 2, the valve cover 2 is threadedly connected to one end of the valve body 1, and the puncture film 21 is axially clamped between the valve body 1 and the valve cover 2;

[0039] a locking sealing ring 3, which is arranged in the valve cavity, a perforation for inserting the outer tube 7 is opened in the locking sealing ring 3, and one side of the locking sealing ring 3 axially abuts against the step surface in the valve cavity;

[0040] an elastic claw 4, which is arranged in the valve cavity and is located on one side of the locking sealing ring 3, and a bayonet for clamping the outer tube 7 is opened in the elastic claw 4;

[0041] Release the cap 5. The release cap 5 is inserted into the valve cavity from the other side of the valve body 1 and forms a sliding fit with the valve body 1. A perforation is provided in the release cap 5.

[0042] The release cap 5 abuts inwardly against the elastic claw 4 to open the clamping opening of the elastic claw 4. The outer tube 7 sequentially passes through the release cap 5 and the elastic claw 4 and then is inserted into the locking sealing ring 3.

[0043] In this embodiment, the release cap 5 is integrally of a T-shaped structure. The vertical side body of the release cap 5 is inserted into the valve body 1, and the horizontal side body of the release cap 5 is located outside the valve body 1. The perforation is provided in the vertical side body.

[0044] Specifically, as an alternative embodiment in this embodiment, as Figure 1 Figure 2 shown, a ring sleeve 6 is provided at the valve cavity opening. The ring sleeve 6 is fixedly arranged in the valve cavity opening, and the release cap 5 passes through the ring sleeve 6.

[0045] Specifically, as an alternative embodiment in this embodiment, as Figure 1 Figure 2 shown, a retaining ring is provided on the release cap 5. The retaining ring is adapted to abut against the ring sleeve 6 to limit the release cap 5 from moving out of the sliding sleeve.

[0046] In this embodiment, to improve the sealing performance between the ring sleeve 6 and the valve body 1, a sealing ring 61 is provided between the ring sleeve 6 and the valve body 1.

[0047] In this embodiment, the ring sleeve 6 and the valve body 1 are connected by insertion or threaded connection.

[0048] Specifically, as an alternative embodiment in this embodiment, as Figure 2 Figure 3 shown, the elastic claw 4 includes

[0049] an annular ring body 41, a plurality of radially elastic blocks 42 and a plurality of axially elastic blocks 43;

[0050] Each of the radially elastic blocks 42 is circumferentially distributed within the annular ring body 41, and a clamping opening is formed between each of the radially elastic blocks 42;

[0051] Each of the axially elastic blocks 43 is axially distributed on one axial side of the annular ring body 41, and each of the axially elastic blocks 43 abuts against the end face of the locking sealing ring 3.

[0052] As Figure 2 Figure 3 shown, the elastic block is of a hollow structure to provide space for elastic deformation.

[0053] The annular ring body 41, the radially elastic clamping block 42, and the axially elastic clamping block 43 are of an integral structure and are made of nitinol or highly elastic metal.

[0054] The setting of each axially elastic clamping block 43 is to provide a deformation space for the elastic clamping jaw 4. Because if there is only the radially elastic clamping block 42, the elastic clamping jaw 4 can only deform in one plane, the deformation amount of the clamping jaw is insufficient, and a relatively large external force is required.

[0055] Specifically, as an alternative implementation in this embodiment, as Figure 1 Figure 2 shown, the inner end of the release cap 5 is of a conical structure.

[0056] Specifically, as an alternative implementation in this embodiment, as Figure 1 Figure 2 shown, the cavity opening of the valve cavity on the side of the valve cover 2 is a conical opening.

[0057] The working principle of the quick-change locking joint of the present utility model:

[0058] As Figure 4 shown, insert the outer tube 7 into the release cap 5, then squeeze the elastic clamping jaw 4 through the release cap 5. After the elastic clamping jaw 4 receives the axial pressure, the clamping opening expands and opens. Then the outer tube 7 passes through the clamping opening and penetrates into the locking sealing ring 3. Release the release cap 5, and the elastic clamping jaw 4 deforms due to internal stress and locks on the surface of the outer tube 7 to lock the outer tube 7.

[0059] Insert a needle into the puncture membrane 21 to achieve communication with the outer tube 7. When not in use, pull out the needle, and at this time the outer tube 7 is no longer connected to the outside. When it is necessary to remove the outer tube 7, press the release cap 5 to expand the inner circular hole of the elastic clamping jaw 4 and pull out the outer tube 7.

[0060] All the components (components without specific structures described) selected in this application are common standard components or components known to those skilled in the art, and their structures and principles can all be known by those skilled in the art through technical manuals or obtained through conventional experimental methods.
