The inner diameter of the annular plate 6 is equal to the outer diameter of the polypropylene MPP tube body 1, and the outer diameter of the annular plate 6 is equal to the inner diameter of the sleeve 3. A second spring 8 is installed between the annular plate 6 and the connecting ring 4. One end of the second spring 8 is fixed to the connecting ring 4, and the other end is fixed to the annular plate 6. When the connecting tube 2 of one polypropylene MPP tube body 1 is inserted into the annular groove 5 of another polypropylene MPP tube body 1, under the elastic force of the second spring 8, the end of the connecting tube 2 inserted into the annular groove 5 can press against the annular plate 6.

[0034] When it is necessary to connect two different polypropylene MPP pipe bodies 1, first insert the connecting pipe 2 of the first polypropylene MPP pipe body 1 into the annular groove 5 of the second polypropylene MPP pipe body 1, and align the three insertion rods 11 on the connecting pipe 2 of the first polypropylene MPP pipe body 1 with the three connecting seats 10 on the sleeve 3 of the second polypropylene MPP pipe body 1, so that the three insertion rods 11 are respectively inserted into the positioning holes 12 of the three connecting seats 10. In this process, the connecting pipe 2 first abuts the annular plate 6, and the annular plate 6 is always pressed against the connecting pipe 2 under the elastic force of the second spring 8; when the insertion rod 11 is inserted into the positioning hole 12 on the connecting seat 10 and is locked and fixed by the locking assembly, it can limit the movement of the two connecting pipes 2 in the axial direction and the circumferential direction, thereby connecting the two polypropylene MPP pipe bodies 1 together. Through such a setting, the operation of connecting the two polypropylene MPP pipe bodies 1 is very simple, which greatly improves work efficiency. When it is necessary to disassemble the polypropylene MPP tube body 1, rotate the adjusting piece 13, and the adjusting piece 13 drives the support rod and the locking rod 15 to move away from the positioning hole 12 through the shift block 14, thereby releasing the locking effect of the insertion rod 11 and the connecting seat 10. In this way, when the locking effect of the three insertion rods 11 is released, the two polypropylene MPP tube bodies 1 can be directly separated, which is convenient for disassembly.

[0035] In this embodiment, an annular cushion 7 is fixed to the side of the annular plate 6 facing away from the second spring 8. The annular cushion 7 is specifically a rubber gasket. When the connecting pipe 2 is inserted into the annular groove 5, one end of the connecting pipe 2 can abut against the annular cushion 7. The annular cushion 7 replaces the annular plate 6 and comes into contact with the connecting pipe 2. On the one hand, this can reduce wear between components and extend the service life of the pipe. On the other hand, it can also provide a certain sealing effect on the connection between the two polypropylene (MPP) pipe bodies 1.

[0036] In this embodiment, the inner diameter of the connecting tube 2 is larger than the outer diameter of the polypropylene MPP tube body 1, and a rubber layer 9 is provided on the inner side wall of the connecting tube 2. By providing this rubber layer 9, when the connecting tube 2 is inserted into the annular groove 5, the connecting tube 2 is sleeved on one end of the polypropylene MPP tube body 1 by an interference fit, and the rubber layer 9 directly contacts the outer side wall of the polypropylene MPP tube body 1, further enhancing the sealing performance of the connection part of the two polypropylene MPP tube bodies 1.

[0037] In this embodiment, the end of the connecting pipe 2 away from the polypropylene MPP pipe body 1 is designed to have a rounded corner structure. Similarly, the end of the sleeve 3 away from the connecting pipe 2 can also be designed to have a rounded corner structure. This arrangement facilitates smoother insertion of the connecting pipe 2 into the annular groove 5, thereby improving work efficiency.
