When the angle between the pipelines has a certain offset, the staff can adjust the angle between the two connecting pipes so that the end of the connecting pipe is aligned with the gas pipeline. Therefore, it is convenient for the staff to connect the two gas pipelines, thereby facilitating the use of personnel. During actual installation, the end of the connecting pipe can also be connected to the gas pipeline by reconnecting the elbow to meet the requirements of the installation angle.
[0027] Further, such as Figure 1-2 As shown, the connecting pipe includes an inner tube 21 and an outer tube 22. The two inner tubes 21 are respectively fixed to the ends of the tube seat 11 and the ball seat 14. The inner tube 21 is inserted into the interior of the outer tube 22 and slidably connected thereto. The end of the outer tube 22 is fixed to the flange 12. In this embodiment, the connecting pipe is composed of an inner tube 21 and an outer tube 22. The outer tube 22 can be telescopically slid on the inner tube 21 to adjust the length, thereby facilitating connection and installation with the pipeline, thereby making it convenient for staff to use.
[0028] Further, such as Figure 2-3 As shown, a first rubber ring 31 is installed on the outer tube 22, and the first rubber ring 31 is sleeved on the surface of the inner tube 21. A pair of second rubber rings 32 are installed on the side wall of the spherical cavity 13, and the second rubber rings 32 are sleeved on the surface of the ball seat 14. When in use, the first rubber ring 31 can be used to seal the connection between the outer tube 22 and the inner tube 21, thereby reducing gas leakage.

[0029] Further, such as Figure 2-4As shown, the outer tube 22 is fixedly connected to an annular seat 41 at one end close to the inner tube 21, and the annular seat 41 is sleeved on the inner tube 21. A plurality of screw sleeves 42 are fixedly connected to the annular seat 41. The middle part of the screw sleeve 42 is threadedly connected to a bolt 43, and the end of the bolt 43 is inserted into the interior of the annular seat 41; an annular cavity 51 is opened inside the tube seat 11, and a ring body 54 is rotatably connected to the annular cavity 51. A plurality of sliding holes 53 are opened on the side of the annular cavity 51, and the plurality of sliding holes 53 are arranged in an annular array. Distribution, multiple sliding holes 53 are slidably connected with fixed pins 52, and a plurality of trapezoidal blocks 55 are fixedly connected to the side of the ring body 54 close to the fixed pin 52. A driving assembly that can drive the ring body 54 to rotate is provided on the side of the annular cavity 51; the driving assembly includes a worm wheel 62 and a worm 61, the worm 61 is rotatably connected to the side of the annular cavity 51, the worm wheel 62 is fixed to the outer surface of the ring body 54, the worm 61 and the worm wheel 62 are meshed with each other, and the end of the worm 61 is fixed with a hexagonal screw handle 63;
[0030] In this embodiment, the staff can rotate the bolt 43 so that the end of the bolt 43 rests on the surface of the inner tube 21, thereby fixing the outer tube 22 and the inner tube 21. Then the staff rotates the hexagonal screw handle 63 with a wrench, thereby driving the worm 61 to rotate. The rotation of the worm 61 drives the worm gear 62 and the ring body 54 to rotate inside the annular cavity 51, and then the ring body 54 drives the multiple trapezoidal blocks 55 to move. Then the trapezoidal blocks 55 squeeze the fixing pin 52, so that the end of the fixing pin 52 rests on the surface of the ball seat 14, thereby fixing the ball seat 14, thereby reducing the shaking between the tube seat 11 and the ball seat 14 caused by the vibration generated when the upper vehicle is running, thereby improving the stability of the connection.
[0031] Further, such as Figure 1 and 5 As shown, a plurality of clamps 71 are sleeved on the surfaces of the two outer tubes 22. The two clamps 71 are detachably fixedly connected by fasteners. A rubber sealing sleeve 72 is sleeved on the outer tube 22. The clamps 71 are sleeved on the rubber sealing sleeve 72. A glue injection tube 8 is fixedly connected to the rubber sealing sleeve 72. The glue injection tube 8 and the interior of the rubber sealing sleeve 72 are connected.

After the gas pipeline is installed and fixed to the flange 12 of the outer tube 22, the rubber sealing sleeve 72 is pulled to wrap it around the tube seat 11. Then, the two ends of the rubber sealing sleeve 72 are fixed to the outer tube 22 by clamps 71. The clamps 71 are fixed with fasteners. Relying on the above arrangement, the connection between the outer tube 22, the inner tube 21, the tube seat 11 and the ball seat 14 can be isolated from the outside, thereby isolating it from the external environment, thereby reducing the leakage of the connection caused by rain corrosion. Furthermore, the staff can use a glue gun to inject glue from the glue injection tube 8 into the inside, and rely on the glue to solidify inside the rubber sealing sleeve 72, which can improve the sealing effect and ensure the sealing effect of the connection.
[0033] Working principle: During installation, the connecting pipe is fixed to the end of the fuel pipe by the flange 12, and then the ball seat 14 can be rotated to make the ball seat 14 rotate inside the spherical cavity 13 inside the pipe seat 11. When the angle between the pipes has a certain offset, the staff can adjust the angle between the two connecting pipes so that the end of the connecting pipe is aligned with the gas pipe, so that it is convenient for the staff to connect the two gas pipes, thereby facilitating the use of the staff. During actual installation, the end of the connecting pipe can also be connected to the gas pipe by reconnecting the elbow to meet the installation angle requirements. The connecting pipe is composed of an inner pipe 21 and an outer pipe 22. The outer pipe 22 can be telescopically slid on the inner pipe 21 to adjust the length, thereby facilitating connection and installation with the pipe, thereby facilitating the use of the staff. The first rubber ring 31 can be provided to seal the connection between the outer pipe 22 and the inner pipe 21, thereby reducing gas leakage. The second rubber ring 32 is used to seal between the spherical cavity 13 and the ball seat 14, thereby reducing gas leakage.
[0034] The staff can rotate the bolt 43 so that the end of the bolt 43 rests on the surface of the inner tube 21, thereby fixing the outer tube 22 and the inner tube 21. Then the staff rotates the hexagonal screw handle 63 with a wrench, thereby driving the worm 61 to rotate. The rotation of the worm 61 drives the worm gear 62 and the ring body 54 to rotate inside the annular cavity 51, and then the ring body 54 drives the multiple trapezoidal blocks 55 to move. Then the trapezoidal blocks 55 squeeze the fixing pin 52, so that the end of the fixing pin 52 rests on the surface of the ball seat 14, thereby fixing the ball seat 14, thereby reducing the shaking between the tube seat 11 and the ball seat 14 caused by the vibration generated when the upper vehicle is running, thereby improving the stability of the connection. A rubber sealing sleeve 72 is also provided on the outer tube 22. After the gas pipeline is installed and fixed to the flange 12 of the outer tube 22, the rubber sealing sleeve 72 is pulled to wrap it around the tube seat 11. Then the two ends of the rubber sealing sleeve 72 are fixed to the outer tube 22 by clamps 71. The clamps 71 are fixed with fasteners. Relying on the above arrangement, the connection between the outer tube 22, the inner tube 21, the tube seat 11 and the ball seat 14 can be isolated from the outside, thereby isolating it from the external environment, thereby reducing the leakage of the connection caused by rain corrosion. Furthermore, the staff can use a glue gun to inject glue from the glue injection tube 8 into the inside, and rely on the glue to solidify inside the rubber sealing sleeve 72, which can improve the sealing effect and ensure the sealing effect of the connection.
