AI Technical Summary
In the prior art, repairing the lining of large-diameter pipelines requires cutting the pipe and installing a special joint, which leads to problems of complex operation, long cycle and high cost.
A large-diameter lined pipe tee consisting of an EPDM rubber tee, a stainless steel inner expansion ring, a stainless steel wedge and a half joint tee is used. It is installed at the opening of the repaired pipe through the half joint tee, and the EPDM rubber tee is fixed with the stainless steel inner expansion ring and wedge, so that the tee can be directly installed without cutting the original pipe.
It enables the direct installation of the tee without cutting off the original pipeline, which simplifies the operation process, shortens the installation time and reduces costs.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of lined pipeline repair pipe fittings, in particular to a large-diameter lined pipeline tee. Background Art
[0002] After repairing the lining of a large-diameter pipeline, a tee cannot be directly opened on the lined pipe. Instead, the lining pipe and the original pipe are cut, a dedicated joint is made, and a tee is made on the intermediate short section of the dedicated joint. When making the tee, the lining pipe must be longer than the original pipe, and the lining pipe must not be damaged when cutting the original pipe. This requires a large excavation pit, a long pipe cutting cycle, and a long time and high cost to install the dedicated joint. Opening a tee on a lined pipeline has long been a technical problem in lining repair. Utility Model Content
[0003] The utility model provides a large-diameter lined pipe tee, which solves the problems in the prior art of lined pipe repair requiring pipe breaking, long installation time and high cost.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve its technical problems is:
[0005] A large-diameter lined pipe tee consists of an EPDM rubber tee, a stainless steel inner expansion ring, a stainless steel wedge and a half joint tee. The half joint tee is installed at the opening of the repaired pipe. The EPDM rubber tee is expanded by the stainless steel inner expansion ring and installed on the inner side of the inner liner of the repaired pipe. The stainless steel inner expansion ring is fixed by a stainless steel wedge.
[0006] A rubber sealing ring is provided at the connection between the above-mentioned half joint tee and the repair pipe.
[0007] The utility model does not need to cut off the original pipeline and the liner pipeline. A hole can be directly opened where a tee is needed. After the half-joint tee is installed, a special EPDM rubber tee is expanded and installed in the pipeline with an internal expansion ring. The EPDM rubber tee and the sealing structure can withstand an internal pressure of 2.5 MPa and an external pressure of 0.5 MPa. The stainless steel internal expansion ring has an integrated structure. After being expanded by a special jack, it is fixed with a special wedge to play a sealing role to prevent the medium in the pipeline from flowing into the interlayer between the liner pipe and the old pipeline. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0008] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0009] Figure 1 It is a structural diagram of the present utility model.
[0010] In the figure, 1 is EPDM rubber tee, 2 is stainless steel inner expansion ring, 3 is stainless steel wedge, 4 is half joint tee, 5 is rubber sealing ring, 6 is repaired pipe, and 7 is inner liner pipe. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0011] As shown in the figure, a large-diameter lined pipe tee is composed of an EPDM rubber tee 1, a stainless steel inner expansion ring 2, a stainless steel wedge 3 and a half joint tee 4. The half joint tee 4 is installed at the opening of the repair pipe 6. A rubber sealing ring 5 is provided at the connection between the half joint tee 4 and the repair pipe 6. The EPDM rubber tee 1 is expanded by the stainless steel inner expansion ring 2 and installed on the inner side of the inner liner 7 of the repair pipe 6. The stainless steel inner expansion ring 2 is fixed by the stainless steel wedge 3.
[0012] The utility model does not need to cut off the original pipeline and the liner pipeline. A hole can be directly opened where a tee is needed. After the half-joint tee is installed, a special EPDM rubber tee is expanded and installed in the pipeline with an internal expansion ring. The EPDM rubber tee and the sealing structure can withstand an internal pressure of 2.5 MPa and an external pressure of 0.5 MPa. The stainless steel internal expansion ring has an integrated structure. After being expanded by a special jack, it is fixed with a special wedge to play a sealing role to prevent the medium in the pipeline from flowing into the interlayer between the liner pipe and the old pipeline.
