At present, in engineering practice, generally a heat shrinkable tape or sleeve is used to heat shrink and seal the end of the heat preservation layer from the outer protective pipe to the outer surface of the working pipe.
[0003] Since the heat shrinkable tape or sleeve uses the adhesive layer on its inner surface to adhesively seal the working pipe and the polyethylene outer protective pipe, affected by the temperature of the working pipe, the adhesive often loses its sealing effect, resulting in sealing failure, water ingress into the heat preservation layer, and ultimately the heat preservation layer losing its heat preservation function and large heat energy loss.

[0007] Preferably, the end cap structure includes a sealing disc with a through hole transversely penetrating the front side surface and adapted to the outer diameter of the working pipe, the outer diameter of the sealing disc is larger than the outer diameter of the protective pipe, and a rear side surface at the outer edge of the sealing disc extends backward to form an extension cylinder sleeved on the outer surface of the protective pipe.

[0021] The end cap structure 4 includes a sealing disc with a through hole 6 transversely opened on the front side surface and adapted to the outer diameter of the working pipe 1. The outer diameter of the sealing disc is larger than the outer diameter of the protective pipe 3, and the rear side surface of the outer edge of the sealing disc extends backward to form an extension cylinder sleeved on the outer surface of the protective pipe 3.
[0022] A heat shrinkable tape 5 is fixedly connected between the rear end of the outer surface of the extension cylinder and the outer surface of the protective pipe 3.
[0023] Sealing glue 7 is filled between the inner surface of the extension cylinder and the outer surface of the protective pipe 3.

Then, the residual foam and other attachments on the surface of the end of the working pipe 1 are cleaned. After that, the end cap sleeve structure 4 is installed at the ends of the protective pipe 3 and the insulation layer 2, and the sealing disc of the end cap structure 4 and the working pipe 1 are connected by welding to complete the sealing between the end cap structure 4 and the working pipe 1. Then, sealing glue 7 is filled into the gap between the extension cylinder of the end cap structure 4 and the protective pipe 3 to achieve the sealing between the two gaps. Finally, the rear end of the extension cylinder of the end cap structure 4 and the overlapping end of the outer part of the protective pipe 3 are shrink-sealed with the heat shrinkable tape 5, thereby completing the sealing at both ends of the end cap structure 4.
[0026] The sealing disc of the end cap structure 4 is directly welded to the working pipe 1, ensuring the sealing performance. Then, the extension cylinder at its rear end is connected to the protective pipe 3 through the heat shrinkable tape 5, which also ensures the sealing at both ends. At the same time, sealing glue 7 is filled into the gap between the extension cylinder and the protective pipe 3 for further sealing, which can completely prevent external water from entering the inside of the insulation layer and ensure the safe operation of the hot water pipe network.

[0029] The working principle and usage process of the present utility model: After the present utility model is installed, this sealing structure adds the end cap structure 4 on the basis of the ordinary sealing structure. The sealing disc of the end cap structure 4 is directly welded to the working pipe 1, ensuring the sealing performance. Then, the extension cylinder at its rear end is connected to the protective pipe 3 through the heat shrinkable tape 5, which also ensures the sealing at both ends. At the same time, sealing glue 7 is filled into the gap between the extension cylinder and the protective pipe 3 for further sealing, which can completely prevent external water from entering the inside of the insulation layer and ensure the safe operation of the hot water pipe network.
