Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of connecting joints of glass fiber belt reinforced RTP pipes, and in particular to a connecting fitting for glass fiber belt reinforced flexible composite pipes. Background Technique

[0002] In the initial stage of the application of glass fiber belt reinforced flexible composite pipe products, the developed metal connecting joints are prone to the phenomenon that the RTP pipe and the metal pipe fitting rotate relative to each other during the pipeline laying process. Once relative rotation occurs, the bonding force between the pipe and the pipe fitting will be relatively weakened, and the pipe and the pipe fitting are prone to come off during the high-pressure operation of the pipeline, resulting in leakage accidents. Another problem is that during the high-pressure test after the pipe is inserted into the pipe fitting, the pipe breaks along the circumferential line at the end of the outer sleeve of the pipe fitting. To solve the above two problems, through rigorous technical analysis and a large number of improvement experiments, we have verified the structure of the metal connecting fitting for the glass fiber belt reinforced composite pipe, which has well solved the problem of relative rotation between the pipe and the pipe fitting, and at the same time has well solved the problem that the pipe is prone to circumferential fracture at the end due to stress concentration at the inlet end of the pipe fitting, and significantly reduced the leakage phenomenon at the connection between the pipe and the pipe fitting.

[0003] Therefore, a connecting fitting for glass fiber belt reinforced flexible composite pipes is provided to solve the above problems. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a connecting fitting for glass fiber belt reinforced flexible composite pipes, which has a guiding function and excellent performance, can resist the huge axial pull-off force generated inside and outside the pipe, and has a service life longer than that of the glass fiber belt RTP pipe.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides a connecting fitting for glass fiber belt reinforced flexible composite pipes, which includes an outer sleeve arranged outside the first inner tube and the second inner tube. An oil-joint type connecting nut is arranged outside the connection of the first inner tube and the second inner tube. A groove is arranged on the first inner tube, and a protrusion is arranged on the second inner tube. The first inner tube and the second inner tube are connected by matching the groove and the protrusion. One end of the first inner tube connected to the oil-joint type connecting nut is set as a threaded head, and one end of the second inner tube connected to the oil-joint type connecting nut is set as a T-shaped flat head structure.

[0006] Preferably, the end faces between the first inner tube and the second inner tube are hermetically connected.

[0007] Preferably, a pressure balance hole is arranged on the outer sleeve, and a thin plastic sleeve is arranged at one end of the outer sleeve away from the oil-joint type connecting nut. The thin plastic sleeve is nested and linked with the outer sleeve.

[0009] Preferably, the oil-joint type connection nut includes an outer wall layer and an inner wall layer. A plurality of outer wall grooves are provided on the outer wall layer, and the outer wall grooves are evenly distributed in the circumferential direction. The inner wall layer is provided in two parts. The part of the inner wall layer connected to the first embedded pipe is provided with a thread structure, and the part of the inner wall layer connected to the second embedded pipe is provided with a mortise and tenon structure. The inner wall layer is hermetically connected to the first embedded pipe by threads, and the inner wall layer is hermetically connected to the second embedded pipe by a mortise and tenon.

[0010] Preferably, a plurality of longitudinal grooves are provided between the outer sleeve and the thin plastic sleeve. The longitudinal grooves are evenly distributed in the circumferential direction, and the cross section of the longitudinal groove is triangular, circular or elliptical.

[0011] Preferably, two radial sealing rings are provided at the entrances of the first embedded pipe and the second embedded pipe. The radial sealing rings are O-rings, and the depth of the longitudinal groove does not exceed the set depth of the O-ring.

[0012] Therefore, a glass fiber belt-reinforced flexible composite pipe connecting fitting with the above structure has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] (1) Multiple circles of tooth-shaped structures with specific sizes and angles not only ensure a guiding effect during installation but also can resist the huge axial pulling-off forces generated inside and outside the pipe after installation by a special hydraulic device.

[0014] (2) Double radial seals are provided near the entrances of the embedded pipes, and end-face seals are used for both the flat head and the threaded head end faces to improve the overall sealing performance of the glass fiber belt-reinforced flexible composite pipe connecting fitting.

[0024] As Figure 1 shown, the present utility model provides a connecting fitting for a fiberglass tape-reinforced flexible composite pipe, including an outer sleeve 3 arranged outside the inner embedded pipe one 1 and the inner embedded pipe two 2. A groove 101 is arranged on the inner embedded pipe one 1, and a protrusion 201 is arranged on the inner embedded pipe two 2. The inner embedded pipe one 1 and the inner embedded pipe two 2 are connected by matching the groove 101 and the protrusion 201. The end faces of the inner embedded pipe one 1 and the inner embedded pipe two 2 are hermetically connected. An outer sleeve 3 is arranged outside the connection part of the inner embedded pipe one 1 and the inner embedded pipe two 2. One end of the inner embedded pipe one 1 connected to the union type connection nut 4 is set as a thread head 5, and one end of the inner embedded pipe two 2 connected to the union type connection nut 4 is set as a T-shaped flat head structure 6. One end of the outer sleeve 3 far from the union type connection nut 4 is provided with a thin plastic sleeve 9. The thin plastic sleeve 9 is nested and linked with the outer sleeve 3. The thin plastic sleeve 9 has both a certain strength and a certain tensile ductility;

[0025] The oil-joint type connecting nut 4 includes an outer wall layer 401 and an inner wall layer 402. The inner wall layer 402 is set in two parts. The part of the inner wall layer 402 connected to the first embedded pipe 1 is set as a threaded structure 403, and the part of the inner wall layer 402 connected to the second embedded pipe 2 is set as a mortise and tenon structure 404. The inner wall layer 402 is connected to the first embedded pipe 1 through threaded sealing, and the inner wall layer 402 is connected to the second embedded pipe 2 through mortise and tenon sealing. As Figure 3 shown, a plurality of outer wall grooves 405 are provided on the outer wall layer 401, and the outer wall grooves 405 are evenly distributed circumferentially;

[0026] As Figure 2 shown, a pressure balance hole 301 is provided on the outer sleeve 3;

[0027] Tooth-shaped structures 7 are provided on the outer sides of the ends of the first embedded pipe 1 and the second embedded pipe 2 far from the oil-joint type connecting nut 4 and on the inner wall of the outer sleeve 3. The first embedded pipe 1 and the second embedded pipe 2 are fixedly connected to the outer sleeve 3. As Figure 4 shown, a plurality of longitudinal grooves 8 are provided between the outer sleeve 3 and the thin plastic sleeve 9. The longitudinal grooves 8 are evenly distributed circumferentially. The cross-section of the longitudinal grooves 8 is set as a triangle, a circle or an ellipse. Two end face sealing rings are provided at the entrance of the first embedded pipe 1 and the entrance of the second embedded pipe 2. The radial sealing ring is set as an O-ring 10. The depth of the longitudinal grooves 8 does not exceed the set depth of the O-ring 10.

[0028] Embodiment

[0029] Use special hydraulic equipment to install the pipe fittings onto the RTP pipe. The tooth-shaped structure 7 is embedded in the outer protective layer and the inner lining layer of the pipe. The tooth-shaped structure 7 can enhance the bonding force between the outer sleeve 3, the first embedded pipe 1 and the second embedded pipe 2 and the pipe, and will generate a huge pressure to squeeze the inner and outer walls of the pipe. In this case, stress concentration will occur in some parts. This stress concentration will be transmitted to the fiberglass belt reinforcement layer in the middle of the pipe. The fiberglass belt has excellent high tensile strength, but is prone to shear brittle fracture when the stress is large. At the entrance end of the outer sleeve, several longitudinal grooves 8 are evenly distributed along the circumference on the inner diameter circumferential surface. At the same time, a thin plastic sleeve 9 is added in this area. After the pipe installation is completed, part of its material is squeezed into the longitudinally grooved 8 evenly distributed circumferentially at the entrance end of the outer sleeve 3, forming a structure of mutual embedding and locking. This structure can effectively prevent the relative rotation between the pipe and the pipe fittings, solve the leakage accident caused by the relative rotation, and at the same time the thin plastic sleeve 9 well disperses the original stress concentration at the entrance end of the pipe fittings, completely solves the problem of circumferential fracture along the entrance end of the pipe fittings in the high-pressure test of the pipe, so that the long-term high-pressure resistance performance of the RTP pipe is not damaged or weakened, solves the problem that the connection node is the weak point of the pipeline, and the joint part is integrated with the pipe, thus ensuring the stable and safe operation of the whole laid pipeline.

[0030] Therefore, the glass fiber belt reinforced flexible composite pipe connecting fitting with the above structure adopted by the present utility model has a guiding effect and excellent performance, can resist the huge axial pulling-off force generated inside and outside the pipe, and has a service life longer than that of the glass fiber belt RTP pipe.

[0031] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present utility model and not to limit them. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify or equivalently replace the technical solutions of the present utility model, and these modifications or equivalent replacements cannot make the modified technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present utility model.
