Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of pipeline connection, in particular to a leak-proof pipeline connector for a bathtub. Background Art
[0002] An ice bath tub or a hot water bath tub is made of PVC brushed material and is used for a hot water massage spa or an ice bath spa. When in use, the tub needs to be filled with corresponding hot water or cold water. The tub is provided with a water inlet and a water outlet. When filling water, the water inlet is opened and the water outlet is blocked. The water inlet is connected to the water inlet pipe of the water injector through a pipe connector, and the water injector continuously injects water into the tub. When draining water, the water inlet is blocked and the water outlet is opened. The water outlet is connected to the water outlet pipe through the pipe connector, and the water is discharged through the water outlet pipe. Current pipe connectors are all external structures, that is, the pipe connector protrudes from the outer wall of the tub, and the connecting part of the pipe connector extends into the corresponding water inlet or water outlet and is connected thereto. However, water leakage is prone to occur between the connecting part and the water inlet, and between the connecting part and the water outlet. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0020] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby making a clearer and more precise definition of the protection scope of the present invention.
[0021] See Figure 1-Figure 5As shown, this embodiment discloses a leak-proof pipe connector for a bathtub, comprising a female connecting pipe 10 and a male connecting pipe 20. The inner diameter of the female connecting pipe 10 is larger than the outer diameter of the male connecting pipe 20. Part of the male connecting pipe 20 is inserted into the female connecting pipe 10, and the two are connected and fixed. A circle of female baffles 11 is integrally formed on the outer wall of the female connecting pipe 10, and a connecting thread 12 is provided on the inner wall of the female connecting pipe 10 provided with the female baffle 11. A circle of male baffles 21 is integrally formed on the outer wall of the male connecting pipe 20 not inserted into the female connecting pipe 10, and glue layers are provided on the facing end faces of the female baffles 11 and the male baffles 21.
[0022] The shape of the female baffle 11 and the male baffle 21 is circular or polygonal.
[0023] The thickness of the female baffle 11 gradually decreases from the center to the edge; the thickness of the male baffle 21 gradually decreases from the center to the edge. It can better fit with the bathtub made of PVC brushed material and achieve a better sealing effect.
[0024] The male connecting pipe 20 is connected to the female connecting pipe 10 by at least one of snap-fitting, clamping, interference fitting and gluing.
[0025] The inner side wall of the outer end of the female connecting pipe 10 has a female reinforcement part 13, and the connecting thread 12 is arranged on the inner side wall of the female reinforcement part 13. The setting of the female reinforcement part 13 increases the supporting strength of the female connecting pipe 10, making it better connected to the water outlet pipe or the water inlet pipe.
[0026] The inner end surface of the female reinforcement portion 13 is integrally formed with a circle of first molding grooves 14. The provision of the first molding grooves 14 makes it easy to mold the female connecting pipe 10.
[0027] The inner and outer sidewalls of the outer end of the male connecting tube 20 are both provided with a male reinforcement portion 22. The inner end surface of the male reinforcement portion 22 is integrally formed with a second molding groove 23 and a third molding groove 24. The male baffle 21 is provided on the outer side wall of the male reinforcement portion 22. The third molding groove 24 is close to the central axis of the male connecting tube 20, while the second molding groove 23 is away from the central axis of the male connecting tube 20. The vertical distance between the bottom of the third molding groove 24 and the outer end surface of the male connecting tube 20 is smaller than the vertical distance between the bottom of the second molding groove 23 and the outer end surface of the male connecting tube 20. A fourth molding groove 25 is provided on the outer end surface of the male reinforcement portion 22. The provision of the second molding groove 23, the third molding groove 24, and the fourth molding groove 25 makes the male connecting tube 20 easier to form.
[0028] Sealing rings are provided in the first, second, third, and fourth grooves 14, 23, 24, and 25. When a water inlet or outlet pipe is inserted into the tub anti-leakage pipe connector, the sealing rings can seal the tub anti-leakage pipe connector and the water inlet or outlet pipe.
[0029] The male connecting pipe 20 and the female connecting pipe 10 are made of plastic, and the connecting thread 12 is made of alloy.
[0030] During use, the female connecting pipe 10 is located outside the bathtub and the male connecting pipe 20 is located inside the bathtub. The female connecting pipe 10 with the connecting thread 12 is inserted into the water inlet from the outside of the bathtub, and the male connecting pipe 20 is inserted into the water inlet from the inside of the bathtub. The female connecting pipe 10 and the male connecting pipe 20 are connected and fixed. Glue is pre-applied on the inner sides of the female baffle 11 and the male baffle 21 facing each other. After the female connecting pipe 10 and the male connecting pipe 20 are inserted and installed in the water inlet, the female baffle 11 is pressed against the outer wall of the bathtub, and the male baffle 21 is pressed against the inner wall of the bathtub. This is continued for a period of time until the glue solidifies and the assembly and sealing operation is completed. The same procedure applies to installing the bathtub leak-proof pipe connector at the water outlet: insert the female connecting pipe 10 with connecting threads 12 into the water outlet from the outside of the bathtub, and insert the male connecting pipe 20 into the female connecting pipe 10 from the inside of the bathtub. Similarly, apply glue to the facing ends of the female baffle 11 and male baffle 21, and then press the female baffle 11 and male baffle 21 respectively. The outer side of the female baffle 11 can also be used to attach water inlet and outlet labels.
[0031] The provision of the female baffle 11 and the male baffle 21 increases the connection sealing area between the female connecting pipe 10 and the outer wall of the bathtub, and between the male connecting pipe 20 and the inner wall of the bathtub. Even after the female connecting pipe 10 is inserted into the water inlet or outlet, a gap is left between the female connecting pipe 10 and the water outlet or inlet. Both ends of the gap are blocked and sealed by the male baffle 21 and the female baffle 11, which can reduce the possibility of water leakage; the female baffle 11 and the male baffle 21 are integrally formed on the female connecting pipe 10 and the male connecting pipe 20, reducing the gap caused by the connection and further enhancing the leak-proof performance; compared with ordinary external pipe connectors, the hidden design is more beautiful.
[0032] The above implementation methods are only for illustrating the technical concept and features of the utility model. Its purpose is to enable people familiar with this technology to understand the content of the utility model and implement it. It cannot be used to limit the scope of protection of the utility model. Any equivalent changes or modifications made according to the spirit of the utility model should be included in the scope of protection of the utility model.
