Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of plastic pipes, and more specifically, to a multi-directionally transferable flame-retardant plastic pipe. Background Art

[0002] Plastic pipes are generally made from synthetic resin, typically polyester, with stabilizers, lubricants, and plasticizers added. They are extruded in a pipe-making machine using a "molding" process. They are primarily used for piping in building water supply systems, drainage, exhaust, and sewage pipes, underground drainage systems, stormwater pipes, and conduit for electrical wiring installations.

[0003] After searching, the existing patent (publication number: CN108488526B) discloses a plastic pipe with multi-directional transfer, including a first plastic pipe, a connecting mechanism, a second plastic pipe, a transfer mechanism, a water stop valve, a first protrusion, a second protrusion, a third protrusion and a water stop plug. The first sleeve and the second sleeve are engaged and rotated, the second sleeve and the second plastic pipe are engaged and rotated via the first protrusion, and the first plastic pipe and the first sleeve are threadedly connected, thereby achieving convenient and stable connection. The first connecting pipe, the second type of connecting pipe, the third connecting pipe, the fourth connecting pipe, the fifth connecting pipe, the sixth connecting pipe, the seventh connecting pipe, the eighth connecting pipe and the ninth connecting pipe are interconnected, thereby achieving the transfer of multiple plastic pipes in different directions. A water stop valve is provided on the fifth connecting pipe, and water stop plugs are provided in the first through hole on the second connecting pipe and the second through hole on the ninth connecting pipe, thereby achieving the prevention of water leakage when connecting a limited number of transfer pipes and achieving the transfer function. In the process of realizing the utility model, the inventor found that the prior art has the following problems:

[0004] Existing plastic pipes are usually fixed at certain points. When the pipes turn in multiple directions, additional stress is generated at the fixed points, which leads to local stress concentration and material fatigue, thereby increasing the risk of pipe rupture or leakage. In addition, in high-temperature combustion environments such as fires, the pipes will expand when burned. The material properties of plastic pipes will soften at high temperatures, causing the pipes to deform and lose their original shape, resulting in a decrease in structural strength, cracks or ruptures in the pipes, and fluid leakage.

[0005] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, a flame-retardant plastic pipe with multi-directional connection is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0006] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the present invention provides a flame-retardant plastic pipe with multi-directional connection to solve the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology.

[0008] The plastic hose is arranged in the inner cavity of the corrugated universal structure, the interlayer is arranged between the corrugated universal structure and the plastic hose, and the carbonized filler is arranged in the inner cavity of the interlayer.

[0009] Preferably, connecting flanges are provided on the outer sides of the left connecting pipe and the right connecting pipe, mounting holes are provided in the inner cavities of the connecting flanges, and four groups of mounting holes are provided.

[0010] Preferably, a water outlet is provided on the left side of the plastic hose, and a water inlet is provided on the right side of the plastic hose, and sealing rings are installed on the inner surfaces of the water outlet and the water inlet.

[0011] Preferably, a thread groove is provided on the inner wall of the chip groove, and a threaded connection is formed between the thread groove and the bolt, wherein the inner surface of one group of the connecting flanges abuts against the outer surface of the water outlet, and the inner surface of the other group of the connecting flanges abuts against the outer surface of the water inlet.

[0012] Preferably, the inner surface of the plastic hose is provided with an epoxy resin coating, and the material of the plastic hose is polytetrafluoroethylene.

[0013] Preferably, the carbonized filler is made of aluminum hydroxide, and the outer surface of the corrugated universal structure is corrugated.

[0014] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. Compared with the existing technology, this multi-directional flame-retardant plastic pipe can be flexibly transferred in different directions through the corrugated universal structure and the flexible characteristics of the plastic hose. It can be easily bent and adjusted in direction, adapting to complex installation environments.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] 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.

[0023] Example 1

[0024] As attached Figures 1 to 4 The multi-directional flame-retardant plastic tube shown includes a corrugated universal structure 1, a plastic hose 6, an interlayer 7, and a carbonized filler 8. A left connecting tube 2 is provided on the left side of the corrugated universal structure 1, and a right connecting tube 3 is provided on the right side of the corrugated universal structure 1.

[0025] The plastic hose 6 is arranged in the inner cavity of the corrugated universal structure 1 , the interlayer 7 is arranged between the corrugated universal structure 1 and the plastic hose 6 , and the carbonized filler 8 is arranged in the inner cavity of the interlayer 7 .

[0026] Among them: when the pipeline needs to be multi-directionally switched, the direction of the connecting pipeline can be easily changed by adjusting the bending corrugated universal structure 1 and the plastic hose 6. According to the required flow path, the length and bending angle of the corrugated universal structure 1 and the plastic hose 6 are adjusted to make it smoothly connected to other equipment or pipelines, ensuring stable transmission of the fluid and adapting it to different installation requirements. The left connecting pipe 2 and the right connecting pipe 3 are respectively fixed on the left and right sides of the corrugated universal structure 1. The two can maintain a firm connection at a variety of angles through the flexibility of the corrugated universal structure 1, thereby simplifying the installation and maintenance process. When the pipe body is subjected to high-temperature combustion, the carbonized filler 8 made of polyimide in the interlayer 7 will undergo a carbonization reaction. As the temperature rises, the carbonized layer will continue to form, protecting the inner layer of the plastic hose 6 from damage by direct flames and high temperatures, reducing the heat conduction speed to the inner 6 parts of the plastic hose, and preventing it from melting or deforming in a high-temperature environment.

[0027] Example 2

[0028] Based on Example 1, the solution in Example 1 is further detailed in combination with the following specific working methods. Figures 1 to 4 As shown, see the following description for details:

[0029] As a preferred embodiment, a connecting flange 4 is provided on the outer side of the left connecting pipe 2 and the right connecting pipe 3, and the inner cavity of the connecting flange 4 is provided with mounting holes 5, and four groups of mounting holes 5 are provided; further, the connecting flange 4 is connected by bolts through the four mounting holes 5, ensuring the tightness and stability of the connection and being able to evenly disperse the stress during the connection process.

[0030] As a preferred embodiment, a water outlet 61 is provided on the left side of the plastic hose 6, and a water inlet 62 is provided on the right side of the plastic hose 6, and a sealing ring 10 is installed on the inner surface of the water outlet 61 and the water inlet 62; further, when the fluid enters the water inlet 62, the sealing ring 10 ensures no leakage, and the fluid flows through the inner cavity of the plastic hose 6 and then flows out from the water outlet 61. The sealing ring 10 effectively prevents liquid leakage, thereby ensuring the airtightness and safety of the system.

[0031] As a preferred embodiment, the inner surface of one group of connecting flanges 4 abuts against the outer surface of the water outlet 61, and the inner surface of the other group of connecting flanges 4 abuts against the outer surface of the water inlet 62; further, the two groups of connecting flanges 4 can respectively drive the water outlet 61 and the water inlet 62 to be installed and fixed.

[0032] As a preferred embodiment, the inner surface of the plastic hose 6 is provided with an epoxy resin coating 9, and the material of the plastic hose 6 is polytetrafluoroethylene; furthermore, polytetrafluoroethylene has excellent heat resistance, which can facilitate the plastic hose 6 to transport high-temperature fluids. The epoxy resin coating 9 is combined with polytetrafluoroethylene to increase the resistance and reduce the risk of degradation and corrosion due to high temperature.

[0033] As a preferred embodiment, the carbonized filler 8 is made of polyimide, and the outer surface of the corrugated universal structure 1 is corrugated; further, the carbonized filler 8 made of polyimide will undergo a carbonization reaction to protect the safety of the pipeline, and the corrugated universal structure 1 can achieve rotation in different directions through the corrugations on the surface.

[0034] The working process of the present invention is as follows: first, when the pipeline needs to be switched in multiple directions, the outer surface of the corrugated universal structure 1 is corrugated, and the plastic hose 6 is soft, thereby allowing the pipeline to be flexibly deformed in multiple directions. The direction of the connected pipeline can be conveniently changed by adjusting and bending the corrugated universal structure 1 and the plastic hose 6. According to the required flow path, the length and bending angle of the corrugated universal structure 1 and the plastic hose 6 are adjusted. Then, the left connecting pipe 2 and the right connecting pipe 3 are respectively fixed to the left and right sides of the corrugated universal structure 1. Two sets of connecting flanges 4 are used and connected by bolts through four mounting holes 5 to smoothly connect them to other equipment or pipelines. Since the water outlet 61 and the water inlet 62 are respectively in contact with the left connecting pipe 2 and the right connecting pipe 3, other equipment or pipelines can be fixed at the same time as the connecting flanges 4.

[0035] And when the fluid enters the water inlet 62, the sealing ring 10 ensures that there is no leakage at the connection. The fluid flows through the inner cavity of the plastic hose 6 and is provided with an additional protective layer by the epoxy resin coating 9, thereby improving the wear resistance and corrosion resistance of the plastic hose 6, and then flows out from the water outlet 61. When the equipment is subjected to high-temperature combustion, the carbonized filler 8 made of polyimide in the interlayer 7 will undergo a carbonization reaction. As the temperature rises, a thick carbonized layer is formed, thereby protecting the inner layer of the plastic hose 6 from damage by direct flames and high temperatures, reducing the heat conduction speed to the inner 6 of the plastic hose, and preventing it from melting or deforming in a high-temperature environment. The above is the working principle of this multi-directionally connected flame-retardant plastic pipe.
