Since the inner cavity of the through hole 22 is connected to the fixing bolt 12, the fixing bolt 12 can pass through the through hole 22 to fix the second flange 21, thereby improving the stability of the second flange 21 to ensure a tight fit with the flange plate and improving the sealing effect. Since an arc-shaped plate 23 is fixedly connected to one side of the second flange 21 and close to each through hole 22, and one end of the arc-shaped plate 23 is connected to the inner cavity of the arc-shaped groove 13, the arc-shaped plate 23 can be inserted into the inner cavity of the arc-shaped groove 13, and then the second flange 21 and the first flange 11 can be connected together to facilitate improving the stability of the second flange 21 and the first flange 11. Since a second sealing groove 24 is opened at the central position of one side surface of the second flange 21, a second limiting groove 25 is opened outside the second sealing groove 24, a second engaging groove 26 is opened on one side surface of the second limiting groove 25, and the inner cavity of the second engaging groove 26 is connected to the sealing component 3, the second sealing groove 24 and the second engaging groove 26 can engage the sealing component 3, thereby improving the sealing performance of the second flange 21 to facilitate improving the service life of the second flange 21.

The outer diameter of the sealing column 31 in plan view is the same as the inner diameter of the first sealing groove 14 and the second sealing groove 24 in plan view, and the three are adapted to each other. Engaging plates 35 are arranged at the central positions of both sides of the engaging ring 32. One end of the engaging plate 35 is connected to the first engaging groove 16, and the other end of the engaging plate 35 is connected to the second engaging groove 26.
[0035] Due to the sealing column 31 in the sealing assembly 3, which can be movably connected to the inner cavity of the second flange 21 and provide an installation basis for the engaging ring 32. Since one end of the sealing column 31 is connected to the first sealing groove 14 and the other end of the sealing column 31 is connected to the second sealing groove 24, the sealing column 31 can be installed between the second flange 21 and the first flange 11. Furthermore, the sealing column 31 can be fixed by the second flange 21 and the first flange 11, so as to improve the sealing performance between the second flange 21 and the first flange 11.

Furthermore, the stability of the engaging ring 32 can be improved, so as to prevent the sealing column 31 from loosening and improve the stability of the sealing column 31. Since installation grooves 33 are provided at the middle positions on both surfaces of the sealing column 31, and sealing rings 34 are arranged in the inner cavities of the two installation grooves 33, the sealing performance between the sealing column 31 and the second sealing groove 24 and the first sealing groove 14 can be increased. Furthermore, the sealing performance between the second flange 21 and the first flange 11 can be improved, so as to ensure a tight fit with the flange and improve the sealing effect.
