Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipeline cleaning technology, and in particular to a pipeline connection device. Background Technology

[0002] In the chemical storage industry, cleaning chemical pipelines is a very frequent process when pipeline materials are handled or when the product type is changed.

[0003] Traditional pipeline cleaning and pigging operations require the removal of blind flanges at the end of the pipeline. DN200 blind flanges are heavy and large, making them difficult to handle during removal. They can easily injure people if not handled carefully, placing a heavy physical burden on employees. This is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and poses safety hazards.

[0004] In the prior art, such as the temporary fixing device for blind flanges described in CN221402110U, a flange is fixedly installed at the end of the pipeline and a blind flange is detachably fixedly connected to the flange. A limiting component is provided between the pipeline or flange and the blind flange for limiting and fixing the blind flange after disassembly. The limiting component includes a movable connecting member. One of the pipeline and the flange, as well as the blind flange, are all connected to the connecting member.

[0005] Although the aforementioned temporary fixing device for blind flanges does not require transportation after the blind flanges are removed, the excessive number of fixing bolts between the blind flanges and flanges makes disassembly time-consuming, wastes manpower, and results in low pipeline cleaning efficiency.

[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to improve the existing pipeline connection devices. Utility Model Content

[0007] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the defects in the existing technology and provide a pipeline connection device that can quickly connect pipelines, reduce manual labor intensity, and improve pipeline cleaning and purging efficiency.

A first flange is fixedly installed at the end of the main pipeline, and a second flange is fixedly installed at the fixed end of the bend. A sealing plate is detachably installed at the connecting end of the bend. The first flange and the second flange are sealed and fixedly connected. The sealing plate is threaded or plugged into the bend, and the sealing plate is sealed to the bend.

[0009] A preferred technical solution is that a protruding ring is fixedly provided at the connecting end of the bent pipe, the sealing plate is provided with a snap-fit ​​handle that limits and cooperates with the protruding ring, the snap-fit ​​handle is provided with a snap-fit ​​part, and the protruding ring is sandwiched between the sealing plate and the snap-fit ​​part.

[0010] A preferred technical solution is that the snap-fit ​​handle is rotatably connected to the sealing plate, and a limiting component is provided between the snap-fit ​​handle and the sealing plate to limit the snap-fit ​​portion to the snap-fit ​​position.

[0011] A preferred technical solution is that the limiting component includes a tension spring disposed between the sealing plate and the snap-fit ​​handle, and the tension spring is disposed between the rotating shaft of the snap-fit ​​handle and the snap-fit ​​portion.

[0012] A preferred technical solution is that the convex ring is provided with a protrusion that limits and cooperates with the snap-fit ​​portion.

[0013] A preferred technical solution is that the bent pipe is fixedly provided with a support platform, which is used to temporarily place the sealing plate during the bending operation.

[0014] A preferred technical solution is that the support platform is provided with a through hole for the snap-fit ​​handle to pass through.

[0015] A preferred technical solution is that the side wall of the bend is provided with a pressure relief pipe, and the pressure relief pipe is provided with a pressure relief valve to control its opening and closing.

[0016] The preferred technical solution is that the pressure relief port of the pressure relief pipe is set downward.

[0017] A preferred technical solution is that a sealing ring is fixedly provided at the end of the convex ring.

[0018] The advantages and beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The pipeline connection device of this utility model has a reasonable structure. It removes the blind plate at the end of the original main pipeline, installs a bend, and sets a sealing plate at the end of the bend for quick release. This improves the connection speed of the pipeline, reduces the labor intensity of workers, and improves the efficiency of pipeline cleaning and purging. Attached Figure Description

They are used solely for the convenience of describing this utility model and for simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations of this utility model. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. Example

[0028] like Figure 1-6 As shown, the pipeline connection device of the embodiment includes a main pipeline 1 fixedly installed and a bend 2 fixedly connected to the main pipeline 1. A first flange 11 is fixedly installed at the end of the main pipeline 1, and a second flange 21 is fixedly installed at the fixed end of the bend 2. A sealing plate 3 is detachably installed at the connecting end of the bend 2. The first flange 11 and the second flange 21 are sealed and fixedly connected. The sealing plate 3 is threaded or plugged into the bend 2, and the sealing plate 3 is sealed to the bend 2.

[0029] With this design, when pipelines are needed, the sealing plate can be quickly removed and the corresponding pipelines can be installed and connected. This improves the connection speed of pipelines, reduces the labor intensity of workers, and improves the efficiency of pipeline cleaning and purging.
