Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of pipe fittings joints, in particular to a return water ring with an easily cuttable extension part. Background Art

[0002] The applicant applied for a patent application on January 17, 2022, with the patent application number 202220115852.5 and the patent name "An Extended Hot Water Return Water Ring", which specifically discloses: including a return water ring body, the return water ring body includes a communicating pipe and a U-shaped pipe integrally formed, the communicating pipe is used to communicate with the water inlet pipe, both ends of the U-shaped pipe are used to communicate with the water outlet pipe, a metal connector is embedded in the communicating pipe, the U-shaped pipe includes a first extended water outlet pipe and a second extended water outlet pipe that are symmetric and have the same length, and the first extended water outlet pipe and the second extended water outlet pipe are parallel to each other, the communicating pipe is perpendicular to the plane formed by the first extended water outlet pipe and the second extended water outlet pipe together, a support plate for strengthening and supporting is arranged at the connection part of the communicating pipe and the U-shaped pipe, internal threads are provided on the inner wall of the metal connector, and annular clamping protrusions are arranged on the inner walls of the first extended water outlet pipe and the second extended water outlet pipe. This return water ring is applied to the return water pipe to ensure the rapid outflow of hot water. It includes a communicating pipe and a U-shaped pipe integrally formed, ensuring that the water flow in the water pipe can directly flow back through the U-shaped pipe, and at the same time, the hot water can also be directly transmitted through the communicating pipe; a metal connector is embedded in the communicating pipe to ensure a tighter connection with the water inlet pipe. The U-shaped pipe includes a first extended water outlet pipe and a second extended water outlet pipe that are symmetric and have the same length. Compared with the conventional specifications, the extended distance can provide protection for the water pipe, and at the same time, it increases the contact area between the U-shaped pipe and the water pipe, improving the sealing performance of their cooperation.

[0003] However, in water-using areas such as bathrooms, kitchens, balconies, and terraces, during decoration, due to the inability to accurately control the thickness of the wall finish surface in the early stage, the embedded depth of the return water ring depends entirely on empirical construction, resulting in the connection end surface of the internal thread interface of the return water ring being difficult to be on the same finish surface as the tile laying surface. When the distance between the connection end surface of the internal thread interface of the return water ring and the tile laying surface is too large, it is easy to cause mud to contaminate the connection end surface of the internal thread interface of the return water ring when pasting tiles, and even pour into the internal thread interface. Subsequently, it is necessary to further cut and clean the solidified mud around, resulting in poor connection convenience, and the remaining mud is likely to reduce the connection sealing performance with pipe fittings, causing leakage. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] Therefore, in view of the above problems, the utility model provides a return water ring with an easily cuttable extension part, which mainly solves the problems of poor connection convenience between the embedded return water ring and pipe fittings and easy leakage in the prior art.

The first connection part is in a U-shaped structure. The second connection part has a third interface and a second flow channel connecting the third interface and the first flow channel. A metal joint made of metal material and in a tubular structure is embedded at the third interface. An internal thread is provided on the metal joint. The metal joint is integrally injection-molded with the pipe fitting body. A boss is convexly provided on the outer side surface of the metal joint. A threaded hole is provided on the boss. A wire joint is provided on the boss through screw-thread connection with the threaded hole. An extension part in a ring structure extends outward from the outer edge of the end face of the third interface. The length dimension of the extension part is 5 mm to 80 mm. The thickness dimension of the extension part is smaller than the thickness dimension of the third interface, so that a ring-shaped end face is formed at the third interface.

[0007] Furthermore, a ring-shaped groove is provided on the end face of the third interface and near the extension part. A through hole is provided on the side surface of the ring-shaped groove and is connected to the outside.

The first fixing part and the second fixing part are integrally connected. A connection hole for the screw to pass through is provided on the first fixing part.

[0009] Furthermore, a support seat for positioning the pipe fitting body is provided at the connection part between the first connection part and the second connection part.

[0010] Furthermore, a clamping part for being easily clamped and installed on a connecting part is provided at one end of the support seat away from the second connection part.

[0011] Furthermore, limiting convex rings are provided on the inner surfaces of the first interface and the second interface.

[0012] By adopting the foregoing technical solution, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: The return water ring with an easily cuttable extension part is integrally cast and molded through the first connecting part and the second connecting part, and the formed first interface, second interface and third interface enable the hot water ends at each water use point to be connected in sequence. One of the interfaces at the water use point at the farthest end and the water use point at the nearest end is respectively connected to the heating device through the hot water inlet pipe, and at the same time, it is connected to the valve through the third interface to form a hot water circulation system. The hot water heated by the heating device circulates through each water use point in sequence, which can achieve hot water output immediately after opening, reduce the waiting time, as well as the discharge time and discharge volume of the cooling water in the hot water inlet pipe, improve the convenience of use, and save water resources at the same time. Moreover, the extension part arranged at the third interface and having an annular structure can extend the length of the third interface during embedding, prevent mud pollution and blockage of the third interface, improve the cleanliness of the third interface, and after fitting the tiles, by cutting the extension part, it is made to be on the same finished surface as the tile laying surface, improving the aesthetics. At the same time, the extension part facilitates the positioning and installation of the pipe fittings, improves the convenience of connecting with the pipe fittings in the later stage, and the cooperation between the extension part and the end face of the third interface further improves the sealing performance of the connection with the pipe fittings, enhancing the connection sealing performance and avoiding leakage.
