Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of expansion joints, and more specifically, to a riser expansion joint. Background Art

[0002] PVC drainage pipes are widely used in building drainage projects. However, PVC pipes inherently expand and contract with temperature, which can affect the quality of installation. Therefore, expansion joints are widely used in construction projects to address this thermal expansion and contraction.

[0003] While many existing expansion joints can address the thermal expansion and contraction of pipes, it's difficult to determine the correct installation depth. If installed too deep, thermal expansion can cause the pipe end to push off other glued connections, leading to leaks. If installed too shallow, contraction can cause the pipe end to separate from the sealing rubber ring, causing leaks.

[0004] The prior art discloses a detachable threaded expansion joint, comprising an expansion joint body, a sealing ring, and a compression ring. The expansion joint body has an external thread at its upper end, while the compression ring has an internal thread. The external thread on the expansion joint body and the internal thread on the compression ring precisely engage with each other. This expansion joint does not take into account the pipe installation depth. Utility Model Content

[0015] Furthermore, the socket end includes a first socket section and a second socket section connected to each other, the diameter of the first socket section is larger than the diameter of the second socket section, so that the connection between the first socket section and the second socket section forms the placement step.

[0023] The accompanying drawings are for illustrative purposes only and are not to be construed as limiting this patent;

[0024] In order to better illustrate this embodiment, some parts in the drawings may be omitted, enlarged, or reduced, and do not represent the actual product size;

[0025] It is understandable to those skilled in the art that some well-known structures and descriptions thereof may be omitted in the drawings.

[0026] The technical solution of the present utility model is further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0027] Example 1

[0028] like Figure 1 、 Figure 3 As shown, a riser expansion joint includes a main body 5, an upper tube body 1 and a sealing mechanism, one end of the main body 5 is a socket end 501, the upper tube body 1 includes a first pipe segment 102, a positioning segment 103 and a second pipe segment 101 connected in sequence, the second pipe segment 101 is used to be inserted into the socket end 501, the sealing mechanism is provided at the socket end 501 and is used to connect the main body 5 and the second pipe segment 101, the outer diameter of the positioning segment 103 is larger than the outer diameter of the second pipe segment 101, and the outer diameter of the second pipe segment 101 is not equal to the outer diameter of the first pipe segment 102.

[0029] It should be noted that the positioning section 103 is used for positioning, and no positioning auxiliary tools are required. The socket depth positioning can be achieved by using the pipe body. At the same time, the design of the sealing mechanism can achieve different contraction and extension control.

[0030] Furthermore, the outer diameter of the positioning section 103 gradually decreases from the end where the positioning section 103 is connected to the first pipe section 102 to the end where the positioning section 103 is connected to the second pipe section 101 , so that the positioning section 103 has a truncated cone structure.

[0031] Example 2

[0032] Based on the riser expansion joint described in Example 1, this embodiment uses the same riser expansion joint as that in Example 1. Figure 2 As shown, the sealing mechanism of the specific embodiment includes a threaded cover 2 and an apron 3. The inner wall of the socket end 501 is provided with a placement step. The apron is located inside the socket end 501 and on the placement step. The threaded cover 2 includes an outer cover body 204 and an inner cover body 203. The outer cover body 204 and the inner cover body 203 are both annular structures. The inner cover body 203 is located inside the outer cover body 204. The inner cover body 203 and the outer cover body 204 They are coaxially arranged, and the outer cover body 204 and the inner cover body 203 are connected by the middle cover body 205, so that a slot for the socket end 501 to be inserted is formed between the outer cover body 204 and the inner cover body 203, and the outer cover body 204 is provided with an internal thread 201 on the side facing the inner cover body 203, and the socket end 501 is provided with an external thread 502, and the outer cover body 204 and the socket end 501 are threadedly connected by the internal thread 201 and the external thread 502.

[0033] Furthermore, a positioning surface 202 is provided on the top of the inner cover 203 , which is in contact with the outer wall of the positioning section 103 .

[0034] Furthermore, the length of the external thread 502 is greater than 25 mm.

[0035] It should be noted that the threaded cover 2 is screwed down to extrude the rubber ring 3, so that the sealing effect of the riser expansion joint is better.

[0036] Furthermore, the inner diameter of the rubber ring 3 is smaller than the outer diameter of the second pipe section 101 .

[0037] Furthermore, the sealing mechanism further includes a gasket 4 , which is located inside the socket end 501 and between the inner cover 203 and the rubber ring 3 .

[0038] In a specific embodiment, the length of the second pipe section 101 is greater than 50 mm.

[0039] It should be noted that when the riser expansion joint is initially installed, the threaded cap 2 is placed at the socket end 501, and the positioning surface 202 is aligned with the positioning section 103, thereby creating a spacing greater than 25mm between the positioning section 103 and the socket end 501. When the riser expansion joint is fully installed, the threaded cap 2 is screwed down and threadedly connected to the external thread 502. At this time, the original spacing between the positioning section 103 and the socket end 501 is retained, preventing the positioning section 103 and the socket end 501 from contacting and squeezing the socket end 501 during thermal expansion. At the same time, the length of the second pipe section 101 is greater than 50mm, so that when the riser expansion joint is fully installed, the end of the second pipe section 101 away from the positioning section 103 is greater than 25mm away from the position where the second pipe section 101 contacts the rubber ring 3, thereby preventing the end of the second pipe section 101 away from the positioning section 103 from separating from the socket end 501 during cold contraction.

Figure 4 As shown, the rubber ring 3 in this specific embodiment includes an integrated first rubber part 302 and a second rubber part 301, and the first rubber part 302 and the second rubber part 301 are both annular structures. The first rubber part 302 and the second rubber part 301 are coaxially arranged, and the outer walls of the first rubber part 302 and the second rubber part 301 are flush. The inner diameter of the first rubber part 302 is smaller than the inner diameter of the second rubber part 301, so that the thickness of the first rubber part 302 is greater than the thickness of the second rubber part 301, and when the rubber ring 3 is located at the socket end 501, the second rubber part 301 is closer to the placement step relative to the first rubber part 302.

[0042] Furthermore, the socket end 501 includes a first socket section and a second socket section connected to each other, and the diameter of the first socket section is larger than the diameter of the second socket section, so that the connection between the first socket section and the second socket section forms the placement step.

[0043] Furthermore, the outer sidewall of the outer cover 204 is provided with anti-slip grooves.
