[0021] To make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of 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.
[0022] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present utility model provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model to be protected, but merely represents the selected embodiments of the present utility model. 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.
[0023] Please refer to Figures 1-6 , a tube-side inlet connecting pipe flange, comprising a first connecting pipe 1, a first flange 2 provided at the end of the first connecting pipe 1, further comprising a second connecting pipe 3 and a second flange 4 provided at the end of the second connecting pipe 3. An annular groove 5 is formed on the first flange 2, and a convex ring 6 is fixedly provided on the second flange 4. When the first flange 2 and the second flange 4 are butted together, the convex ring 6 can extend into the inside of the annular groove 5. A plurality of groups of through grooves 7 communicating with the inside of the annular groove 5 are formed on the side wall of the first flange 2, and a plurality of groups of jacks 8 corresponding to the through grooves 7 are formed on the side wall of the convex ring 6. After the convex ring 6 extends into the inside of the annular groove 5, a plurality of groups of through grooves 7 and jacks 8 can be aligned with each other. The connecting pipe flange further comprises a plurality of groups of plugs 9 for inserting into the inside of the through grooves 7 and jacks 8. A first magnet 10 is arranged at the innermost side of the jack 8, and a second magnet 11 with a magnetic pole opposite to that of the first magnet 10 is arranged at the innermost end of the plug 9. When the innermost end of the plug 9 is inserted into the innermost side of the through groove 7, the first magnet 10 and the second magnet 11 will approach each other and generate a magnetic attraction effect. At this time, the innermost end of the plug 9 can be kept inserted into the inside of the through groove 7 under the magnetic attraction effect and is not easily separated.
[0024] During use, the first flange 2 and the second flange 4 are butted together. The convex ring 6 at the end of the second flange 4 will extend into the internal annular groove 5 at the end of the first flange 2. Then, several groups of through grooves 7 on the side wall of the convex ring 6 are aligned with several groups of jacks 8 on the side wall of the second flange 4. At this time, the flange holes around the first flange 2 and the second flange 4 will also be aligned with each other. By using bolts to pass through the flange holes around the first flange 2 and the second flange 4 and using nuts to tighten and fix both ends, the first flange 2 and the second flange 4 can be connected together. At this time, the user can insert several groups of plug blocks 9 into the jacks 8 respectively. The innermost end of the plug block 9 will pass through the jack 8 and extend into the internal through groove 7. The second magnet block 11 at the innermost end of the plug block 9 will approach the first magnet block 10 inside the through groove 7. The innermost end of the plug block 9 can be kept inserted inside the through groove 7 under the magnetic attraction and is not easily separated. Since the plug block 9 is inserted into both the first flange 2 and the second flange 4 at the same time, the plug block 9 can limit the axial displacement between the first flange 2 and the second flange 4, improving the connection stability between the first flange 2 and the second flange 4. During use, even if some of the nuts connecting the first flange 2 and the second flange 4 become loose, there will be no gap at the connection between the first flange 2 and the second flange 4 due to partial loosening, and the first flange 2 and the second flange 4 will not become loose, thus avoiding the leakage of the medium passing through the second pipe 3 and the first pipe 1. In addition, during the disassembly process, the user only needs to overcome the magnetic attraction between the second magnet block 11 and the first magnet block 10 to pull out the plug block 9 from the inside of the through groove 7 and the jack 8, and then disassemble the bolts and nuts around the first flange 2 and the second flange 4, so that the first flange 2 and the second flange 4 can be separated.
[0025] Further, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 , the sides of the through groove 7, the jack 8 and the plug block 9 are all rounded corner structures. During the process of inserting and pulling out the plug block 9, the frictional resistance generated between the side wall of the plug block 9 and the side walls of the through groove 7 and the jack 8 due to the rounded corner structure is small, which is convenient for people to insert and pull out. A handle 12 is fixedly connected to the outermost end of the plug block 9 for people to grasp, so that the plug block 9 can be conveniently pulled out from the inside of the through groove 7 and the jack 8.
[0026] Further, please refer to Figures 1-2 , the surfaces of the first flange 2 and the second flange 4 are provided with mutually cooperating alignment lines 13. When the first flange 2 and the second flange 4 are butted together, the alignment lines 13 on the surfaces of the first flange 2 and the second flange 4 are aligned with each other. At this time, several groups of through grooves 7 on the side wall of the convex ring 6 are exactly aligned with several groups of jacks 8 on the side wall of the second flange 4, which is convenient for people to quickly and accurately align the through groove 7 and the jack 8.
[0027] Further, please refer toFigure 3 and Figure 4 On one side of the first flange 2 and the second flange 4 facing each other, mounting grooves 14 are provided. A sealing washer 15 is embedded inside the mounting groove 14. When the first flange 2 and the second flange 4 are connected, the sealing washers 15 on the contact surfaces of the first flange 2 and the second flange 4 will be closely attached together, further improving the sealing performance at the joint between the first flange 2 and the second flange 4.
[0028] Furthermore, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 . A tab 16 is fixedly connected to the sealing washer 15. The tab 16 can be grasped by the user, so that the sealing washer 15 embedded inside the mounting groove 14 can be conveniently taken out, and it is convenient to replace the sealing washer 15 when it ages.
[0029] Furthermore, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 . Reinforcing ribs 17 are provided between the first nozzle 1 and the first flange 2, and between the second nozzle 3 and the second flange 4. The reinforcing ribs 17 are welded in multiple groups between the first nozzle 1 and the first flange 2, and between the second nozzle 3 and the second flange 4. Since the connection between the first nozzle 1 and the first flange 2, and between the second nozzle 3 and the second flange 4 is usually in a single-sided welding manner, the firmness of the connection is poor. The reinforcing ribs 17 can provide a strengthening connection between the first nozzle 1 and the first flange 2, and between the second nozzle 3 and the second flange 4, and to a certain extent prevent the first nozzle 1 and the first flange 2, and the second nozzle 3 and the second flange 4 from breaking under the action of external forces due to poor welding.
[0030] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not used to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, various modifications and changes can be made to the present invention. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
