[0040] Such as Figure 1As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a gas stove, which includes components such as a chassis 200, an air inlet pipe 100, a valve body 300, a gas guide pipe 400, and a burner 500. The air inlet pipe 100 and the valve body 300 are respectively connected to the chassis 200 by screws. The burner 500 is installed inside the chassis 200. The valve body 300 is connected to the burner 500 through the gas guide pipe 400. Gas enters from one end of the air inlet pipe 100 and is controlled by the valve body 300 to flow into the burner 500, and the flame starts to burn at the head of the burner 500 to heat the cookware, realizing heating and cooking.

[0041] As Figure 2 shown in the figure, the air inlet pipe 100 in this embodiment is made of a hollow steel pipe and is integrally in an L-shaped elbow. The air inlet pipe 100 includes an air inlet end 1 and a sealing end 2. The air inlet end 1 is used to connect a prefabricated joint 12 and connect to the gas pipeline. The sealing end 2 is located at the end of the air inlet pipe 100 and is used for sealing the end of the pipeline. The prefabricated joint 12 is a pre-processed connecting joint and is used for connecting the hose joint of the gas pipeline.

[0042] Specifically, the air inlet end 1 has an anti-disengagement part 11, and the anti-disengagement part 11 can prevent the prefabricated joint 12 from falling off the air inlet pipe 100, thereby avoiding the connection failure between the air inlet pipe 100 and the gas pipeline. The anti-disengagement part 11 is a convex platform formed by pressing. The total radial dimension of the convex platform is larger than the diameter of the prefabricated joint 12. In the actual processing and manufacturing process, first put the pre-processed prefabricated joint 12 on the air inlet pipe 100, and then put the air inlet end 1 into the mold, and press to form a convex platform structure. The total radial dimension of the convex platform is larger than the diameter of the prefabricated joint 12 to prevent the prefabricated joint 12 from falling off. The hose joint is connected to the prefabricated joint 12 by threads to achieve connection and sealing at the air inlet. The prefabricated joint 12 does not need to be welded to the air inlet pipe 100, and the quick connection and sealing between the prefabricated joint 12 and the hose joint can be realized.

[0043] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 shown in the figure, the anti-disengagement part 11 is an annular convex platform, and the diameter of the annular convex platform is larger than the diameter of the prefabricated joint 12. The processing mold of the annular convex platform is simple and easy to make, and the forming is easy. Moreover, the prefabricated joint 12 is cylindrical, and the annular convex platform has a better anti-disengagement effect on the prefabricated joint 12.

[0044] The anti-disengagement part 11 is arranged at the end of the air inlet end 1, which is easy to process and form, and can ensure the effective length of the air inlet pipe 100. The anti-disengagement part 11 can also be arranged at other parts of the air inlet end 1, such as a position at a certain distance from the end of the air inlet end 1, and can also play an anti-disengagement role.

[0045] As Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the sealing end 2 of the intake pipe 100 has a flat structure 21, and the two opposite inner walls of the flat structure 21 are in contact with each other to achieve a sealing effect. Specifically, the flat structure 21 is a duckbill-shaped structure. The intake pipe 100 can achieve end face sealing without a welded sealing structure, with a simple structure and easy to process.

[0046] The sealing end 2 includes a first side wall and a second side wall. The first side wall and the second side wall taper inwardly towards each other to form the flat structure 21, and the first side wall and the second side wall are symmetrically arranged with respect to the longitudinal section of the intake pipe 100. This duckbill-shaped structure is easy to process, and the sealing effect of the symmetric structure is more reliable.

[0047] To ensure a more reliable sealing effect of the sealing end 2, at least one pressing rib 22 is provided on the flat surface of the sealing end 2. The pressing rib 22 is used to enhance the sealing performance of the flat structure 21 and ensure reliable sealing. The pressing rib 22 is provided on the outer surface of the flat surface. The number of the pressing ribs 22 can be one or more, and can be designed according to the actual size of the flat structure 21. The extending direction of the pressing rib 22 is perpendicular to the axis direction of the sealing end 2.

[0048] As Figure 5 shown, in this embodiment, the flat structure 21 and the pipe body of the intake pipe 100 are connected through an arc section 23. The provision of the arc section 23 enables a smooth transition between the pipe body and the flat structure 21, which can reduce stress concentration and improve the structural strength of the intake pipe 100.

[0049] As Figure 2 shown, an air outlet hole 3 is further provided on the intake pipe 100 for connecting with the valve body 300 to supply air.

[0050] The processing process of the intake pipe 100 in this embodiment is as follows:

[0051] First, use a pipe cutter to cut the pipe to the required length, bend it into an L shape with a pipe bender, put the prefabricated joint 12 that has been pre-processed on the air inlet end 1 of the air inlet pipe 100, put the air inlet end 1 in the mold, and form a ring-shaped boss structure by pier pressing to prevent the prefabricated joint 12 from falling off. The hose joint is connected to the prefabricated joint 12 by threading to achieve the connection seal at the air inlet. The prefabricated joint 12 does not need to be welded to the air inlet pipe 100 to achieve the connection seal; then put the end of the air inlet pipe 100 in the forming mold, pierce the round tube into a duckbill structure to form a sealing end 2, and provide one or more compression ribs 22 on the plane. The extension direction of the compression ribs 22 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the air inlet pipe 100, which is used to strengthen the sealing performance of the sealing end 2 and ensure reliable sealing. Then, according to the center distance of the knob, determine the installation position of the valve body 300, and drill the air outlet 3 at the corresponding position of the air inlet pipe 100 by punching with a twist drill. At this point, the processing of the intake pipe 100 is basically completed. The entire process only requires three steps of cutting, pressing and drilling to complete. No welding and sealing process is required. The manufacturing process is simple, the structure is reliable, the processing process is environmentally friendly and the production efficiency is higher.

[0052] Note that the above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and the technical principles used. Those skilled in the art will understand that the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments herein, and that various obvious changes, readjustments and substitutions can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, although the present invention is described in more detail through the above embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and may include more other equivalent embodiments without departing from the concept of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is determined by the scope of the appended claims.
