Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of corrugated expansion joints, in particular to an adjustable large tie rod transverse corrugated expansion joint. Background Technique

[0002] The large tie rod transverse corrugated expansion joint is also known as the large tie rod transverse corrugated compensator. When the pipeline system undergoes lateral displacement due to thermal expansion and contraction or other factors, the large tie rod transverse corrugated expansion joint absorbs these displacements through the angular deflection of the corrugated pipe. At the same time, the large tie rod bears the internal pressure thrust and other additional external forces to ensure the stable operation of the compensator. After the compensator works and deforms, the large tie rod will play a role in restricting the deformation amount and protecting the corrugated pipe.

[0003] In the existing transverse expansion joints, the two ends of the corrugated pipe are generally connected to the inner walls of the two end pipe fittings, lacking protection for the corrugated hose, and the corrugated hose is easily damaged;

[0004] The existing patent (publication number: CN206846164U) discloses a transverse corrugated expansion joint, which includes an intermediate pipe, a left connecting pipe and a right connecting pipe. The left end of the intermediate pipe and the left connecting pipe are connected by a first corrugated hose, and the right end of the intermediate pipe and the right connecting pipe are connected by a second corrugated hose; a left ring plate is arranged on the left connecting pipe, a right ring plate is arranged on the right connecting pipe, and several large tie rods are connected between the left ring plate and the right ring plate. A first flow guide cylinder is arranged on the inner hole wall at the right end of the left connecting pipe; a second flow guide cylinder is arranged on the inner hole wall at the right end of the intermediate pipe. It is externally connected to the pipe wall through the corrugated hose, which is convenient for the installation of the corrugated hose. Then, the setting of the flow guide cylinder and the protective sleeve avoids internal and external damage to the corrugated hose.

[0005] In view of the above problems, although the solution given by the existing patent avoids internal and external damage to the corrugated hose by externally connecting the corrugated hose to the pipe wall, when the corrugated expansion joint is in use, it is not convenient to adjust, the damping effect is average, and it is easy to cause deformation of the corrugated pipe.

[0025] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0026] The present invention provides a technical solution:

[0027] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 , an adjustable large tie rod transverse type corrugated expansion joint, including an expansion joint body 1, a first connecting member 2 is fixed at one end of the expansion joint body 1, a second connecting member 3 is fixed at the other end of the expansion joint body 1, and adjusting mechanisms for adjusting the expansion joint are fixed on the outer walls of the second connecting member 3 and the first connecting member 2;

[0028] The adjusting mechanism includes fixing rings 4. There are two groups of fixing rings 4. One group of fixing rings 4 is fixed on the outer wall of the second connecting piece 3. A connecting pipe 41 is connected inside the fixing ring 4. A movable rod 42 is telescopically connected inside the connecting pipe 41. A fixing nut 43 is threadedly connected to the end of the movable rod 42. A tension spring 44 fixed to the movable rod 42 is installed inside the connecting pipe 41. A limiting block 45 is fixed on the outer wall of the movable rod 42. Fixing holes 5 are formed in the inner walls of both the second connecting piece 3 and the first connecting piece 2. Sealing rings 6 are fixed on the side walls of both the second connecting piece 3 and the first connecting piece 2. A heat-insulating inner ring 7 is fixed inside the expansion joint body 1. A buffer mechanism for buffering the medium is installed inside the heat-insulating inner ring 7.

[0029] By adopting the above technical solution, before using the adjustable large tie-rod horizontal corrugated expansion joint, first place the expansion joint body 1 in a suitable position. Through the fixing holes 5 formed in the first connecting piece 2 and the second connecting piece 3, bolts can be used to connect the expansion joint to an external pipeline. The provided sealing ring 6 can play an auxiliary sealing role. Through the fixing rings 4 provided on the first connecting piece 2 and the second connecting piece 3, the connecting pipe 41 can be placed into one group of fixing rings 4, and then the movable rod 42 can be placed into the other group of fixing rings 4. The movable rod 42 and the connecting pipe 41 are fixed by the fixing nut 43. By turning the fixing nut 43, the connecting pipe 41 can be adjusted and tightened, so that the tension spring 44 in the connecting pipe 41 generates different tensile forces, thereby adjusting the buffering capacity of the expansion joint. The provided limiting block 45 can play a limiting role.

[0030] Specifically, as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the buffer mechanism includes a fixing plate 8. The fixing plate 8 is fixed inside the heat-insulating inner ring 7. A through hole 81 is formed inside the fixing plate 8. A flow-limiting plate 82 is provided on one side of the fixing plate 8. A fixing block 83 is fixed on the outer wall of the flow-limiting plate 82. A connecting rod 84 penetrating through the inside of the fixing plate 8 is fixed on the side wall of the fixing block 83. A buffer spring 85 is sleeved on the outer surface of the connecting rod 84. One end of the buffer spring 85 is in abutting connection with the fixing plate 8, and the other end of the buffer spring 85 is in abutting connection with a connecting block 86 fixed to the connecting rod 84.

[0031] By adopting the above technical solution, the heat-insulating inner ring 7 inside the expansion joint body 1 can play a heat-insulating role. Through the fixing plate 8 arranged inside the heat-insulating inner ring 7, when the medium flows inside the expansion joint, it will pass through the through hole 81 to push the flow-limiting plate 82 to move, so that the medium can be normally discharged through the through hole 81. Moreover, the connecting rod 84 arranged on the fixing block 83 is driven to move, so that the connecting block 86 pushes the buffer spring 85 to be compressed, which can play a buffering role when the medium flows. When the medium pressure is too low, the buffer spring 85 will push the flow-limiting plate 82 to reset, thereby sealing the through hole 81 and preventing the external medium from flowing back.

[0032] Working principle: Through the fixing holes 5 opened on the first connecting piece 2 and the second connecting piece 3, bolts can be used to connect this expansion joint with an external pipeline. Through the fixing rings 4 arranged on the first connecting piece 2 and the second connecting piece 3, the connecting pipe 41 is placed into a group of fixing rings 4, and then the movable rod 42 is placed into another group of fixing rings 4. The movable rod 42 and the connecting pipe 41 are fixed through the fixing nut 43. By screwing the fixing nut 43, the connecting pipe 41 can be adjusted and tightened, so that the tension spring 44 inside the connecting pipe 41 generates different tensile forces, thereby adjusting the buffering capacity of this expansion joint. The limiting block 45 arranged can play a limiting role. The heat-insulating inner ring 7 inside the expansion joint body 1 plays a heat-insulating role. Through the fixing plate 8 arranged inside the heat-insulating inner ring 7, when the medium flows inside the expansion joint, it will pass through the through hole 81 to push the flow-limiting plate 82 to move, so that the medium can be normally discharged through the through hole 81. Moreover, the connecting rod 84 arranged on the fixing block 83 is driven to move, so that the connecting block 86 pushes the buffer spring 85 to be compressed, which can play a buffering role when the medium flows. When the medium pressure is too low, the buffer spring 85 will push the flow-limiting plate 82 to reset, thereby sealing the through hole 81 and preventing the medium from flowing back.

[0033] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that: they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
