Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of pipe fitting connection, in particular to a pipe fitting adapter. Background Art

[0002] During the installation of pipe fittings, an adapter is needed to connect adjacent pipe fittings. The adapter has various shapes, such as straight type, right-angle type, etc. However, the current adapters all have the following problems: after the pipe fitting is connected to the adapter, the pipe fitting is fixed to the adapter and the direction of the pipe fitting cannot be adjusted anymore. If the direction of the pipe fitting needs to be adjusted, only the pipe fitting and the adapter can be disassembled, and a new adapter needs to be replaced. Moreover, the water supply or other media must be stopped in advance, which is very inconvenient. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] A pipe fitting adapter includes a first pipe body and a second pipe body. A connecting pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom of the first pipe body, and a rotating ball is connected to the lower end of the connecting pipe. A spherical groove is provided at the top of the second pipe body, and more than half of the rotating ball is rotatably connected in the groove. A cavity is provided in the rotating ball, and the connecting pipe is communicated with the first pipe body and the cavity. A plurality of first through holes communicated with the cavity are provided on the outer wall of the lower half of the rotating ball. A second through hole communicated with the groove is provided in the second pipe body, and the diameter of the second through hole is larger than that of the first through hole. When the rotating ball rotates to the maximum angle, all the first through holes at the lower part of the rotating ball are still covered in the groove. Internal threads are provided on the lower part of the inner wall of the first pipe body and the upper part of the inner wall of the second pipe body.

[0006] Preferably, a first sealing gasket is fixed on the inner wall of the groove, and a third through hole communicated with the second through hole is provided at the bottom of the first sealing gasket. The rotating ball is rotatably installed in the first sealing gasket.

[0007] Preferably, openings are provided in the upper part of the first pipe body and the lower part of the second pipe body. First clamps are connected to both sides of the opening on the first pipe body, and second clamps are connected to both sides of the opening on the second pipe body.

Detailed Description of the Preferred Embodiments

[0016] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0017] Embodiment 1

[0018] Please refer to Figures 1 - 4, a pipe fitting adapter, comprising a first pipe body 1 and a second pipe body 2. A connecting pipe 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the first pipe body 1. A rotating ball 4 is connected to the lower end of the connecting pipe 3. A spherical groove is provided at the top of the second pipe body 2. A first sealing gasket 8 is fixed to the inner wall of the groove. More than half of the rotating ball 4 is rotatably connected within the first sealing gasket 8. A third through hole is provided at the bottom of the first sealing gasket. A cavity 5 is provided within the rotating ball 4. The connecting pipe 3 is in communication with the first pipe body 1 and the cavity 5. A plurality of first through holes 6 communicating with the cavity are provided on the outer wall of the lower half of the rotating ball 4. A second through hole 7 communicating with the groove is provided within the second pipe body 2. The diameter of the second through hole 7 is larger than that of the first through hole 6. The second through hole 7 is in communication with the third through hole. When the rotating ball 4 rotates to the maximum angle (as can be seen from Figure 3 ), when the lower part of the connecting pipe 3 contacts the second pipe body 2, the rotating ball 4 rotates to the maximum angle), all the first through holes 6 in the lower part of the rotating ball 4 are still covered within the first sealing gasket, so that through the action of the first sealing gasket, water or other media leakage is prevented.

[0019] Internal threads are provided on the lower part of the inner wall of the first pipe body 1 and the upper part of the inner wall of the second pipe body 2. Second sealing gaskets 12 are provided in the lower part within the first pipe body 1 and the upper part within the second pipe body 2. Pipe fittings can be installed through the internal threads. After the pipe fittings are installed within the first pipe body or the second pipe body, through the action of the second sealing gaskets 12, a sealing effect can be achieved to prevent leakage.

[0020] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: Pipe fittings 13 are respectively connected through the first pipe body 1 and the second pipe body 2. After the adjacent pipe fittings 13 are respectively connected to the first pipe body 1 and the second pipe body 2, if it is necessary to rotate the direction of the pipe fitting 13, there is no need to disassemble the pipe fitting. Just rotate the first pipe body 1 or the second pipe body 2. During the rotation process, the rotating ball 4 rotates within the groove. At this time, the cavity 5 within the rotating ball 4 is still in communication with the second pipe body 2 through the first through holes 6, the second through holes 7, and the third through hole, so that the first pipe body 1 and the second pipe body 2 are always in communication, and there is no need to stop water or other media in advance, improving the convenience of pipe fitting rotation.

[0021] Embodiment 2

[0022] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that openings 9 are provided at the upper part of the first pipe body 1 and the lower part of the second pipe body 2. First clamps 10 are connected to both sides of the opening on the first pipe body 1. Second clamps 11 are connected to both sides of the opening on the second pipe body 2. After pipe fittings are installed within both the first pipe body 1 and the second pipe body 2, through the action of the first clamps 10 and the second clamps 11, the pipe fittings can be more firmly installed on the first pipe body and the second pipe body.
