[0004] The utility model aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art.

[0005] To this end, the utility model provides a flange structure for a sight glass, which can firmly and effectively fix the sight glass on a container or equipment.

[0006] According to a flange structure for a sight glass provided by the first aspect of the utility model, it includes bolts, a gland, a flange and a sealing ring. A sealing groove is formed on the flange, the sealing ring is installed in the sealing groove, an installation position is also formed on the flange, the sight glass is installed in the installation position, and both ends of the sight glass penetrate through the gland via the bolts and are embedded into the flange to press the sight glass against the sealing ring.

[0007] Further preferably, the sight glass is made of borosilicate glass or tempered glass.

[0008] Preferably, the inner hole size of the flange for installing the sight glass is larger than the outer diameter of the sight glass.

[0009] Further preferably, a shock pad is further provided between the gland and the sight glass, and the shock pad is adapted to press against the sight glass when the gland covers the sight glass.

[0010] Preferably, the shock pad is an elastic shock pad made of an elastic material.

[0011] Further preferably, the flange structure is installed or welded on the equipment via fasteners.

[0012] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: The flange structure can be directly welded to the container according to the actual use situation, or can be fixedly installed on the equipment or container by means of fasteners. And by opening a sealing groove on the flange and installing a sealing ring in the sealing groove, at the same time, an installation position is opened on the flange, the sight glass is arranged in the installation position, and the flange is pressed against the sealing ring by a gland, so as to realize the installation and fixation of the sight glass. This flange structure can be applied to places that need to be observed, such as sanitary containers and sanitary equipment, and by using the flange structure to fix the sight glass, the stability of the sight glass after installation can be effectively guaranteed.

[0013] Other features and advantages of the present utility model will be described in the following specification, and will be partially obvious from the specification, or understood by implementing the present utility model. The purpose and other advantages of the present utility model are achieved and obtained by the structures specifically pointed out in the specification, claims and drawings.

[0014] In order to make the above objects, features and advantages of the present utility model more obvious and understandable, the following specific preferred embodiments are given, and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, the detailed description is as follows. Description of the Drawings

[0015] The following further illustrates the present utility model in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments.

[0016] Figure 1 It is a structural diagram of the flange structure for the sight glass of the present utility model.

[0017] Reference Signs:

[0018] 1. Bolt; 2. Gland; 3. Flange; 31. Installation position; 32. Sealing groove; 4. Shock pad; 5. Sealing ring; 6. Sight glass. Detailed Embodiments

[0019] Now, the present utility model will be further described in detail in conjunction with the drawings. These drawings are all simplified schematic diagrams, only illustrating the basic structure of the present utility model in a schematic manner, so they only show the components related to the present utility model. In the description of the present utility model, it should be understood that unless otherwise specified, the meaning of "a plurality of" is two or more.

[0020] See Figure 1, A flange 3 structure for a sight glass 6 in a specific embodiment of the present utility model includes a bolt 1, a gland 2, a flange 3, and a sealing ring 5. Among them, a sealing groove 32 is provided on the flange 3, the sealing ring 5 is installed in the sealing groove 32, an installation position 31 is also provided on the flange 3, the sight glass 6 is installed in the installation position 31, the gland 2 presses against one side of the sight glass 6, and both ends of the sight glass 6 pass through the gland 2 via the bolt 1 and are embedded into the flange 3 to press the sight glass 6 against the sealing ring 5, thereby realizing the installation and fixation of the sight glass 6. It should be noted that the sealing ring 5 can be an O-ring 5, and the sealing groove 32 provided on the flange 3 needs to be designed strictly in accordance with sanitary requirements, and is easy to clean, with good compliance.

[0021] In some embodiments, the sight glass 6 used can be made of borosilicate glass or tempered glass, and the operating conditions inside the equipment or container can be better observed through the high transparency of the sight glass 6.

[0022] In some embodiments, the size of the installation position 31 provided on the flange 3 for installing the sight glass 6 is larger than the outer diameter of the sight glass 6, so that the sight glass 6 can be inserted into the inner hole without resistance.

[0023] In some embodiments, a shock-absorbing pad 4 is further provided between the gland 2 and the sight glass 6. The shock-absorbing pad 4 can press against the sight glass 6 when the gland 2 covers the sight glass 6. And the shock-absorbing pad 4 is an elastic shock-absorbing pad 4 made of an elastic material. On the one hand, the shock-absorbing pad 4 can play a sealing role, and on the other hand, by the elasticity of the elastic material, it can buffer when the sight glass 6 is impacted, so as to prevent the sight glass 6 from being directly damaged by external impact loads.

[0024] In addition, it should be noted that when installing the sight glass 6, since the sight glass 6 is made of non-metallic material and is relatively brittle, when installing and tightening, it is necessary to gradually tighten diagonally and apply force evenly to avoid damaging the sight glass 6 due to improper operation.

[0025] According to the actual use situation, the flange 3 structure can be directly welded on the container, or can be fixedly installed on the equipment or container by using fasteners. And by providing a sealing groove 32 on the flange 3 and installing the sealing ring 5 in the sealing groove 32, at the same time, an installation position 31 is provided on the flange 3, the sight glass 6 is arranged in the installation position 31, and the flange 3 is pressed against the sealing ring 5 by the gland 2, so as to realize the installation and fixation of the sight glass 6. The flange 3 structure can be applied to places that need to be observed, such as sanitary containers and sanitary equipment. And by using the flange 3 structure to fix the sight glass 6, the stability of the sight glass 6 after installation can be effectively guaranteed.
