Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of pipe connection structures, in particular to an interface sealing structure for socket-and-spigot flexible steel pipes. Background Art

[0002] Socket connections are primarily used for cast iron pipes, concrete pipes, ceramic pipes, plastic pipes, and other pipes with socket joints. Socket pipes are categorized into two types: rigid and flexible. A rigid socket connection involves inserting the spigot into the socket. After alignment, the joint is caulked with caulking material and then sealed with a sealant. A flexible socket connection involves inserting a flexible rubber ring into the stopper on the spigot. Force is then applied to insert the spigot, creating a closed pipe that can accommodate a certain range of displacement and vibration.

[0003] Flexible connections can be used to connect ductile iron pipes, concrete pipes, ceramic pipes, plastic pipes, and other pipelines. Steel pipes, which are in high demand in the market, are typically connected using socket elbows, flanges, or other structures such as welding. These connection methods are complex, difficult to install, or have poor sealing effects, failing to meet operational requirements. Large-diameter water pipes are primarily connected on-site by butt welding. However, due to the limited space at the bottom of the trench, even the slightest deformation of the large-diameter pipe can result in significant misalignment of the pipe ends, making alignment difficult. Butt welding requires high technical skills, and the primary failure mode of water pipes is weld cracking. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] 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.

[0030] See also Figure 1-4In an embodiment of the present invention, a socket-and-spigot joint sealing structure of a flexible steel pipe includes: a steel pipe 100, wherein the material of the steel pipe 100 is carbon steel; a socket 101 is arranged at the end of the steel pipe 100; a sealing groove 102 is opened in the inner ring of the socket 101; a sealing rubber ring 300 is embedded and sleeved in the sealing groove 102; a sloped portion 301 is arranged in the inner ring of the sealing rubber ring 300; an insertion tube 200 is slidably inserted into the interior of the socket 101; a sloped ring 202 is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the insertion tube 200, and the sloped ring 202 conflicts with the sloped portion 301; a protrusion 302 is arranged on the outer ring of the sealing rubber ring 300, and the protrusion 302 conflicts with the inner wall of the sealing groove 102. A limiting ring plate 204 is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the insertion tube 200, and a plurality of docking seats 205 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the limiting ring plate 204 at equal intervals in a ring shape. One side of each of the plurality of docking seats 205 is provided with a mounting seat 105 corresponding thereto, and a positioning ring 104 fixedly sleeved on the receiving interface 101 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the plurality of mounting seats 105, and a locking bolt 206 screwed in connection with the mounting seat 105 is screwed in the docking seat 205.

[0031] Specifically, a socket 101 is provided at the end of the steel pipe 100, and a sealing groove 102 is provided on the inner ring of the socket 101, and a sealing rubber ring 300 is embedded in the sealing groove 102. When docking, the end of the insertion tube 200 can be inserted into the socket 101, and the docking seat 205 on the outer wall of the limiting ring plate 204 and the mounting seat 105 on the outer wall of the socket 101 are connected relative to each other, and then the locking bolt 206 is rotated to drive the insertion tube 200 to gradually penetrate into the socket 101, so that The beveled ring 202 on the outer wall of the insertion tube 200 can come into contact with the beveled portion 301 on the inner ring of the sealing rubber ring 300, so that the raised portion 302 of the sealing rubber ring 300 can be tightly abutted against the inner wall of the sealing groove 102, thereby strengthening the sealing performance at the interface of the steel pipe 100, so that the sealing rubber ring 300 can be compressed to fill the gap and ensure that water does not leak out. When the limiting ring plate 204 comes into contact with the end of the receiving interface 101, it stops rotating, and the limiting ring plate 204 is used to further seal the end of the steel pipe 100 to improve the sealing performance.

[0032] By providing the inner walls of the steel pipe 100 and the insertion pipe 200 with the inner lining layer 103 and the inner lining layer 203, the inner lining layer made of epoxy resin can increase the corrosion resistance of the pipeline and reduce the wear and corrosion of the inner wall of the steel pipe 100 caused by water flow. In addition, by fixing the metal cap 110 on the outer wall of the steel pipe 100, the electrons on the steel pipe 100 can be transferred to the earth, so that the metal cap 110 and the steel pipe 100 form an equipotential, thereby solving the grounding problem of preventing electric shock in underground pipe corridors and extending the service life of the steel pipe.

[0033] By rotating the two ferrules 107 and fitting them to the outer wall of the steel pipe 100, and then rotating the locking bolt 109 to bring the two fixing seats 108 closer, the ferrules 107 can fit the outer wall of the steel pipe 100, so that the two ferrules 107 clamp the inner wall of the steel pipe 100 and the outer wall of the insertion tube 200. Therefore, the connection of the water supply steel pipe does not require welding, and therefore there will be no weld cracking.

[0034] Example 1

[0035] like Figure 3-4 As shown, in this embodiment, an inner lining layer 103 is fixedly provided on the inner wall of the steel pipe 100, and an inner lining layer 203 is fixedly provided on the inner wall of the insert tube 200. The material of the inner lining layer 103 and the inner lining layer 203 is epoxy resin. Four lifting rings 111 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the steel pipe 100 at equal intervals, and four lifting rings 201 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the insert tube 200 at equal intervals. A metal cap 110 is symmetrically fixedly provided on the outer wall of the steel pipe 100. A connecting block 106 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the steel pipe 100. Two ferrules 107 are symmetrically connected to the connecting block 106. The ends of the two ferrules 107 are fixedly connected to a fixing seat 108, and a locking bolt 109 is screwed in between the two fixing seats 108.

[0036] In this embodiment, by providing inner lining layer 103 and inner lining layer 203 on the inner walls of the steel pipe 100 and the insertion pipe 200, the inner lining layer made of epoxy resin can increase the corrosion resistance of the pipeline and reduce the wear and corrosion of the inner wall of the steel pipe 100 caused by water flow. In addition, by fixing the metal cap 110 on the outer wall of the steel pipe 100, electrons on the steel pipe 100 can be transferred to the earth, so that the metal cap 110 and the steel pipe 100 form an equipotential, thereby solving the grounding problem of preventing electric shock in underground pipe corridors and extending the service life of the steel pipe.

[0037] By rotating the two ferrules 107 and fitting them to the outer wall of the steel pipe 100, and then rotating the locking bolt 109 to bring the two fixing seats 108 closer, the ferrules 107 can fit the outer wall of the steel pipe 100, so that the two ferrules 107 clamp the inner wall of the steel pipe 100 and the outer wall of the insertion tube 200. Therefore, the connection of the water supply steel pipe does not require welding, and therefore there will be no weld cracking.
