Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a PE electrofusion fitting, in particular to an extended PE electrofusion fitting for maintenance, which is used to replace damaged conventional-size PE electrofusion fittings during maintenance and belongs to the technical field of building installation water supply and gas supply pipeline equipment. Background Art

[0002] At present, in the water supply and gas supply pipelines of building installation, the application of PE steel wire mesh pipes is becoming more and more common. The joints of PE steel wire mesh pipes are generally connected by PE electrofusion fittings. During the long-term use of the installed PE steel wire mesh pipeline, due to the influence of human or environmental factors, leakage or air leakage often occurs at the pipe joints. When maintaining, it is necessary to replace the damaged electrofusion fitting at the joint. However, the electrofusion fitting is melted into one body with the pipe head of the PE steel wire mesh pipe and cannot be removed separately. To replace the damaged electrofusion fitting, it is necessary to cut off both the electrofusion fitting and the inserted pipe head. Since the laid PE steel wire mesh pipeline generally cannot move axially back and forth, after cutting off a damaged electrofusion fitting on the pipeline, the pipe head of the pipeline becomes shorter and cannot be directly replaced with an electrofusion fitting of the same specification. For example, to replace an electrofusion straight joint, it is necessary to cut off an additional section of the connecting pipeline at both ends of the electrofusion straight joint, and then use two electrofusion straight joints plus a section of auxiliary connecting pipe for replacement; to replace an electrofusion 90° elbow, it is necessary to cut off an additional section of the connecting pipeline at both ends of the electrofusion 90° elbow, and then use an electrofusion 90° elbow plus two electrofusion straight joints plus two sections of auxiliary connecting pipes for replacement.

[0003] Thus, it can be seen that when using conventional-size PE electrofusion fittings as maintenance replacement parts at present, additional electrofusion fittings and auxiliary connecting pipes are needed for replacement, and the work is quite cumbersome, which not only consumes more materials but also delays the maintenance time and affects the rapid restoration of water supply and gas supply. Content of the Utility Model

When replacing with it, no additional electrofusion fittings and auxiliary connecting pipes are needed, the maintenance is convenient and efficient, the maintenance time can be saved, and the water supply and gas supply can be quickly restored.

[0047] The following further describes the present utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0048] When the extended PE electrofusion pipe fitting is an electrofusion straight joint, as Figure 1 shown, the electrofusion pipe joints at both ends of the electrofusion straight joint both adopt extended pipe joints. The inner hole of the electrofusion straight joint is a smooth and unobstructed straight through-hole, and the fusion zones of the two electrofusion pipe joints are both arranged at positions close to the ends; according to the foregoing parameter definitions and formula calculations, the specific dimension parameters of each common specification of this extended electrofusion straight joint are as follows:

[0049]

[0050] For comparison, a conventional-size PE electrofusion straight joint is as Figure 6 shown. There is an obstruction in the middle of its inner hole, its insertion hole depth is L2, and the other parameters D, L, and L1 have the same definitions as the corresponding parameters of the extended electrofusion straight joint. The specific dimension parameters of each common specification are as follows:

[0051]

[0052] By comparison, it can be seen that the length L of this extended electrofusion straight joint is much greater than the length L of the conventional-size electrofusion straight joint. When a conventional-size electrofusion straight joint on the pipeline is damaged, this extended electrofusion straight joint can be used for replacement. Cut off the damaged conventional-size electrofusion straight joint together with part of the pipe material according to the length of this extended electrofusion straight joint, and then sleeve this extended electrofusion straight joint on the remaining pipeline for electrofusion jointing.

[0053] When the extended PE electrofusion pipe fitting is an electrofusion 90° equal-length elbow, as Figure 2As shown in the figure, the electrofusion pipe joints at both ends of the electrofusion 90° equal-length elbow adopt extended pipe joints. The fusion zones of the two electrofusion pipe joints are both set near the ends, and the two electrofusion pipe joints are both provided with inserted step holes extending inwards from the ends. According to the above-mentioned parameter definitions and formula calculations, the specific dimension parameters of each common specification of this extended electrofusion 90° equal-length elbow are as follows:

[0054]

[0055] When this extended PE electrofusion fitting is an electrofusion 90° unequal-length elbow, as Figure 3 shown in the figure, one electrofusion pipe joint of the electrofusion 90° unequal-length elbow adopts an extended pipe joint, and the other electrofusion pipe joint adopts a non-extended pipe joint. The fusion zones of the two electrofusion pipe joints are both set near the ends, and the two electrofusion pipe joints are both provided with inserted step holes extending inwards from the ends. According to the above-mentioned parameter definitions and formula calculations, the specific dimension parameters of each common specification of this extended electrofusion 90° unequal-length elbow are as follows:

[0056]

[0057] For comparison, the conventional-size PE electrofusion 90° elbow, as Figure 7 shown in the figure, has the same parameter definitions for D, L, L1, and L2 as those of the extended electrofusion equal-length elbow. The specific dimension parameters of each common specification are as follows:

[0058]

[0059] It can be seen from the comparison that the length L of both this extended electrofusion 90° equal-length elbow and the extended electrofusion 90° unequal-length elbow is much greater than the length L of the conventional-size electrofusion 90° elbow. When the conventional-size electrofusion 90° elbow on the pipeline is damaged, this extended electrofusion 90° equal-length elbow or the extended electrofusion 90° unequal-length elbow can be used for replacement according to its usage scenario. If the damaged elbow is connected to the pipeline at both ends, cut off the damaged conventional-size electrofusion 90° elbow together with part of the pipe according to the length of this extended electrofusion 90° equal-length elbow, and then sleeve this extended electrofusion 90° equal-length elbow onto the remaining pipeline for electrofusion joining. If one end of the damaged elbow is connected to the pipeline and the other end is connected to other fittings, it is necessary to cut off the damaged conventional-size electrofusion 90° elbow and the other connected fittings together, and then sleeve the extended electrofusion 90° unequal-length elbow and the new other fittings onto the remaining pipeline for electrofusion joining.

[0060] When this extended PE electrofusion fitting is an electrofusion straight tee, as Figure 4As shown in the figure, the electrofusion pipe joints at both ends of the straight-through pipeline of the electrofusion positive tee are all extended pipe joints, and the non-electrofusion pipe joint connected to the middle of the straight-through pipeline uses a non-extended pipe joint. The inner hole of the straight-through pipeline is a smooth and unobstructed straight-through hole, and the fusion zones of the two electrofusion pipe joints are both set near the ends; according to the above-mentioned parameter definitions and formula calculations, the specific dimension parameters of each common specification of this extended electrofusion positive tee are as follows:

[0061]

[0062] For comparison, the conventional size PE electrofusion positive tee is as Figure 8 shown. The parameters D, L, L1, and L3 have the same definitions as the corresponding parameters of the extended electrofusion positive tee. The specific dimension parameters of each common specification are as follows:

[0063]

[0064] It can be seen from the comparison that the length L of this extended electrofusion positive tee is much larger than the length L of the conventional size electrofusion positive tee. When the conventional size electrofusion positive tee on the pipeline is damaged, according to the length of this extended electrofusion positive tee, the damaged conventional size electrofusion positive tee and part of the pipe are simultaneously cut off, and this extended electrofusion positive tee is sleeved on the remaining pipeline for electrofusion jointing. The pipe fittings connected to the non-electrofusion pipe joint of the damaged electrofusion positive tee also need to be cut off and replaced with corresponding extended pipe fittings.

[0065] When this extended PE electrofusion fitting is an electrofusion flange, as Figure 5 shown, the electrofusion pipe joint of the electrofusion flange neck pipe uses an extended pipe joint. The fusion zones of the electrofusion pipe joints are both set near the ends of the neck pipe. The electrofusion pipe joint is provided with an insertion step hole extending inward from the end of the neck pipe; according to the above-mentioned parameter definitions and formula calculations, the specific dimension parameters of each common specification of this extended electrofusion flange are as follows:

[0066]

[0067] For comparison, the conventional size PE electrofusion flange is as Figure 9 shown. The parameters D, L, L1, and L2 have the same definitions as the corresponding parameters of the extended electrofusion flange. The specific dimension parameters of each common specification are as follows:

[0068]

[0069] By comparison, it can be seen that the length L of this lengthened electrofusion flange is much greater than the length L of the electrofusion flange with conventional dimensions. When the electrofusion flange with conventional dimensions on the pipeline is damaged, this lengthened electrofusion flange can be used for replacement. Cut off the damaged electrofusion flange with conventional dimensions and part of the pipe according to the length of this lengthened electrofusion flange, and then sleeve this lengthened electrofusion flange on the remaining pipeline for electrofusion bonding.

[0070] The above illustrations are only typical embodiments of the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
