Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of fluid pipelines, in particular to a straight-through sight glass. Background Art
[0002] Pipe sight glasses are one of the main accessories on industrial pipeline devices and are widely used in pipelines of industrial production equipment such as petroleum, chemical, pharmaceutical, and food. Pipe sight glasses can observe the situation of the medium fluid in the pipeline at any time, play a role in monitoring production and avoiding accidents in the production process. General pipe sight glasses include a glass tube with a fluid channel on the glass tube. The two sides of the fluid channel are connected by flanges to fix the glass tube. The existing technology often uses studs for threaded connection. However, the pipe sight glass of the above structure uses multiple studs and nuts to fix the glass tube. Since the operator cannot ensure that the locking force of each bolt and nut on the glass tube is the same or the locking position is consistent when tightening the bolts and nuts, it is easy for the glass tube to be unevenly stressed and easily damaged by the action of the fluid during use.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0020] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0021] Example: As shown in the attached Figures 1 to 3The straight-through sight glass shown in the figure includes a glass tube 1, a first flange 2 and a second flange 3. The first flange 2 and the second flange 3 are connected to the two sides of the glass tube 1 by threads and form a clamping. The glass tube 1 is sleeved with a sealing component 4 that forms a sealing match with the first flange 2 and the second flange 3. The first flange 2 and the second flange 3 are respectively symmetrically provided with a plurality of balancing components 5 (four to eight groups are symmetrically arranged) that form a telescopic abutment with the sealing component 4. The balancing component 5 includes a positioning column 8, an elastic member 9 (specifically a pressure spring) and a positioning panel 10. The positioning column 8 presses the elastic member 9 to form a limited telescopic extension and is arranged on the first flange 2. The positioning panel 10 is installed between the sealing component 4 and the positioning column 8 and forms a limited abutment with the positioning column 8. When installed, the glass tube 1 is sleeved on both sides. A sealing assembly 4 is provided to prevent the glass tube 1 from being bumped or damaged during installation and movement. The spring is sleeved on the positioning column 8 and installed on the first flange 2 and the second flange 3. The positioning panel 10 is used to press and fix the spring to form a limited abutment. When the first flange 2 and the second flange 3 are threadedly connected by the stud, the sealing assembly 4 and the glass tube 1 are gradually compressed. At this time, one end of the positioning column 8 abuts against the sealing assembly 4. When squeezed by pressure, the spring is gradually compressed and moves to the other side. During installation, the operator judges whether the locking force of each bolt 25 and nut on the glass tube 1 is the same or the locking position is consistent by the displacement degree of each positioning column 8. This facilitates observation of the force applied when the bolts 25 and nuts on both sides are tightened during installation of the pipe sight glass, thereby avoiding excessive squeezing of the glass tube 1 and tilting after installation.
[0022] As attached Figure 2 As shown, an annular sealing groove 11 is formed on one side of the first flange 2, and the sealing assembly 4 includes an annular sealing gasket 12 (specifically made of rubber). The annular sealing gasket 12 is embedded in the annular sealing groove 11 to achieve a flexible connection at the connection of the glass tube 1, thereby preventing irreversible damage to the glass tube 1 caused by excessive pressure and improving the sealing effect.
[0023] As attached Figure 2 As shown, a plug-in groove 13 is provided on one side of the annular sealing gasket 12, and inclined surfaces 14 are provided on both sides of the plug-in groove 13. The inclined surfaces 14 are arranged in a state of gradually decreasing toward the bottom. The glass tube 1 is provided with a tapered surface 15 adapted to the plug-in groove 13. The tapered surfaces 15 on both sides of the glass tube 1 and the plug-in groove 13 can form a tighter sealing effect, and the inclined surfaces 14 provided on the plug-in groove 13 can better form a tight seal with the glass tube 1.
[0024] As attached Figure 2As shown, a plurality of abutment flanges 16 are arranged in an array at the bottom of the insertion groove 13 (they are an integrated structure, and three are arranged in an array). One end of the abutment flange 16 is connected to the annular sealing gasket 12, and the other end is raised in a semicircular shape toward the side of the glass tube 1. The provision of the abutment flange 16 can more stably transmit the pressing force to the positioning column 8, while reducing the side pressure, so that the abutment flange 16 and the glass tube 1 form a point-to-surface matching effect.
[0025] As attached Figure 2 As shown, a telescopic hole 17 communicating with the outer wall is provided on the first flange 2, and a mounting groove 18 communicating with the annular sealing groove 11 is provided on one side of the telescopic hole 17. A telescopic portion 19 and a positioning portion 20 (which are an integrated structure) are provided on the positioning column 8. The telescopic portion 19 is arranged and installed in the telescopic hole 17 and extends toward one side of the mounting groove 18. The elastic member 9 is sleeved on the telescopic portion 19 and installed in the mounting groove 18. The positioning portion 20 is connected to the telescopic portion 19 and protrudes toward one side of the inner wall of the mounting groove 18. The telescopic hole 17 allows the telescopic portion 19 to telescope and move, while observing the position of the telescopic portion 19. The positioning portion 20 serves to support and abut the elastic member 9.
[0026] As attached Figure 3 As shown, the positioning panel 10 is provided with a through hole 21 for the telescopic part 19 to extend out, and a plurality of positioning holes 23 (corresponding to the number of bolts 25) are provided on the positioning panel 10. A screw hole 24 corresponding to the positioning hole 23 is provided on one side of the mounting groove 18. Bolts 25 are provided on the positioning panel 10, and the bolts 25 pass through the positioning holes 23 in sequence and are tightened in the screw holes 24. The positioning panel 10 is formed on one side of the mounting groove 18 and forms a limiting abutment with the positioning part 20. The positioning panel 10 is used to form a limiting abutment with the positioning part 20 to prevent the positioning column 8 from falling. At the same time, the through hole 21 can allow one end of the telescopic part 19 to extend out and form abutment with the sealing component 4 for the transmission of abutment pressure.
