[0025] Example
[0026] The following is further described in conjunction with specific embodiments. Figure 1 -Attached Figure 5 As shown, the temporary pipe sealing device of this embodiment includes a plurality of sealing assemblies 20 stacked inside the end of the pipe 10, a pull rod 31 for connecting the sealing assembly 20, a support plate 32 provided at the end of the pipe 10, a through hole opened in the support plate 32, and an external thread provided at the end of the pull rod 31; the pull rod 31 is threadedly connected to a nut 33 after passing through the through hole, and the nut 33 abuts against the support plate 32; the sealing assembly 20 includes an annular airbag 21, a pair of splints 22 respectively provided on both sides of the airbag 21, and a first sliding hole 24 provided in the middle of the splint 22; the pull rod 31 is sealingly slidably provided in the first sliding hole 24, and the pull rod 31 is fixedly connected to the splint 22 farthest from the support plate 32; the airbag 21 is made of elastic material; the outer diameter of the splint 22 is smaller than the outer diameter of the airbag 21. Specifically, when in use, multiple sealing components 20 are inserted into the interior of the pipe 10, and then the column support plate 32 is clamped at the end of the pipe 10, the pull rod 31 is passed through the through hole of the support plate 32, the nut 33 is screwed into the pull rod 31, and the nut 33 is slowly screwed with a wrench. During the rotation of the nut 33, since the nut 33 and the pull rod 31 are threadedly connected, the pull rod 31 can be pulled out of the pipe 10, thereby compressing the multiple sealing components 20. When the sealing components 20 are compressed, the pair of clamping plates 22 will squeeze the gas The airbag 21 is configured so that the airbag 21 is tightly attached to the inner wall of the pipe 10 after expanding outward, thereby achieving a bottom sealing effect, and the screw and the first sliding hole 24 are also sealed. Therefore, the pipe 10 can be well sealed, and multiple sealing components 20 can effectively improve the sealing effect. It has a certain sealing effect for gas within a certain air pressure and water flow within a certain water pressure. It is easy to operate and does not require additional electric equipment, air compressors, etc. It is very convenient to disassemble and assemble, and is applicable to pipes 10 within a certain inner diameter range.
[0027] In this embodiment, the splint 22 and the airbag 21 are connected by an adhesive, which can ensure that the airbag 21 and the splint 22 are stably connected.
[0028] In this embodiment, the diameter of the first sliding hole 24 is smaller than the inner diameter of the airbag 21. Specifically, the airbag 21 will not only expand outward but also inward, so the diameter of the first sliding hole 24 needs to be smaller so that the airbag 21 will not contact the pull rod 31.
[0029] The sealing assembly 20 in this embodiment further includes a spring 26 for connecting the pair of clamping plates 22. Specifically, when the nut 33 is loosened, the spring 26 moves the pair of clamping plates 22 away from each other, thereby causing the airbag 21 to contract inward, making it very easy to remove the sealing assembly 20 from the pipe 10.
[0030] The sealing assembly 20 in this embodiment also includes a fixed block 23 positioned on the side of the clamping plate 22 away from the airbag 21, a second sliding hole defined in the fixed block 23, a circular groove formed in the inner wall of the second sliding hole, and a sealing ring retained in the groove. The first sliding hole 24 and the second sliding hole are coaxially arranged and have the same diameter. Specifically, the use of the fixed block 23 increases the axial length of the connection between the pull rod 31 and the clamping plate 22, thereby allowing the installation of a sealing ring (O-ring) in the fixed block 23 for sealing.
[0031] In this embodiment, a support tube 34 is provided on the side of the support plate 32 near the sealing assembly 20. The support tube 34 is located at the through hole, with the end of the support tube 34 abutting against the fixing block 23. The pull rod 31 is disposed through the support tube 34. Specifically, this allows the sealing assembly 20 and the airbag 21 to be positioned as close to the interior of the pipe 10 as possible.
[0032] In this embodiment, a clamp 35 is sleeved on the outer wall of the end of the pipe 10; the side of the clamp 35 abuts the support plate 32. Specifically, for plastic pipes such as PE pipes, if they are not thick enough, they may not be able to withstand the pressure of the support plate 32 and may deform. Therefore, the clamp 35 is first tied to the outer wall of the pipe 10, and then the support plate 32 is abutted against the clamp 35. In addition, if there is positive pressure inside the pipe 10, to prevent the high pressure inside the pipe 10 from pushing out the sealing assembly 20, the clamp 35 can be fixed to the support plate 32, specifically by bolts or snap fasteners.
[0033] In summary, the temporary pipe plugging device of this embodiment is used by inserting multiple sealing components 20 into the interior of the pipe 10, then clamping the support plate 32 at the end of the pipe 10, passing the pull rod 31 through the through hole of the support plate 32, screwing the nut 33 into the pull rod 31, and slowly tightening the nut 33 with a wrench. During the rotation of the nut 33, since the nut 33 and the pull rod 31 are threadedly connected, the pull rod 31 can be pulled out of the pipe 10, thereby compressing the multiple sealing components 20. When the sealing components 20 are compressed, a pair of The splint 22 will squeeze the airbag 21, so that the airbag 21 will be tightly attached to the inner wall of the pipe 10 after expansion, thereby achieving a bottom sealing effect, and the screw and the first sliding hole 24 are also sealed. Therefore, the pipe 10 can be well sealed, and multiple sealing components 20 can effectively improve the sealing effect. It has a certain sealing effect for gas within a certain air pressure and water flow within a certain water pressure. It is easy to operate and does not require additional electric equipment, air compressors, etc. It is very convenient to disassemble and assemble, and is applicable to pipes 10 within a certain inner diameter range.
[0034] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that the present invention is susceptible to various modifications and variations. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
