Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of metering equipment, and in particular to a flexible connector for metering in the shape of an inverted cone. Background Technology

[0002] Currently available flexible connectors for metering and batching systems are either silicone straight cylinders, silicone lanterns, non-woven fabric bag cylinders, or silicone corrugated tubes. Because there is a connection between the upper and lower pipes and the metering device, the connection must be flexible, and the flexible connector itself must not be too tight; it needs some looseness. For straight cylinder connectors, the positional deviation of the upper and lower pipes cannot be too large; the larger the deviation, the larger the dead angle and the more material accumulates. Lantern connectors can tolerate slightly larger positional deviations and more dead angles, but will accumulate more material. Corrugated tube connectors can tolerate slightly larger positional deviations, but like lantern connectors, they have more dead angles and accumulate more material. These traditional metering flexible connectors cannot be used when the center deviation of the upper and lower pipes is large, and these types are prone to causing excessive residual material inside the flexible connector, ultimately affecting metering accuracy. Utility Model Content

[0003] This application provides an inverted conical flexible connector for metering, which solves the technical problem that traditional flexible connectors for metering cannot be used when the center deviation of the upper and lower pipes is large, and that traditional types are prone to causing excessive residual material in the flexible connector, which ultimately affects the metering accuracy.

[0004] The technical solution adopted in the embodiments of this application is as follows:

[0005] A flexible connector for metering with an inverted conical shape includes an upper connector, a lower connector for connecting to a metering device, and a flexible connecting tube for fixing the upper connector and the lower connector; the upper connector is connected to the top end of the flexible connecting tube; the lower connector is connected to the bottom end of the flexible connecting tube; the vertical surface of the flexible connecting tube has an inverted conical structure; the top end of the flexible connecting tube has an upper insertion port; the bottom end of the flexible connecting tube has a lower insertion port; the upper connector is embedded in the upper insertion port; the lower connector is embedded in the lower insertion port.

[0006] A further technical solution is that the flexible connecting tube is made of silicone.

[0007] One or more technical solutions provided in the embodiments of this application have at least the following technical effects or advantages:

[0008] 1. The inverted conical structure of the flexible connector effectively addresses positional deviations in the upper and lower connecting pipes. The inverted conical design allows for tolerant connections within the taper range of the upper and lower connecting pipes. This design significantly improves connection reliability and reduces the risk of installation difficulties or connection failures due to positional deviations. Secondly, the inverted conical structure of the flexible connector essentially eliminates the problem of material accumulation in dead corners. In traditional flexible connectors, material accumulation in dead corners often leads to reduced metering accuracy and can even affect the normal operation of the entire system. However, the inverted conical structure of this invention allows for smooth material flow, reducing material accumulation inside the connector and thus ensuring the metering accuracy of the system. This invention can adapt to positional deviations in the upper and lower connecting pipes, achieving tolerant connections within the taper range. This design significantly reduces the risk of connection failure and improves system stability and reliability. Because the flexible connector is made of silicone, it has excellent corrosion resistance and wear resistance, resulting in a long service life. Simultaneously, the inverted conical structure reduces material accumulation inside the connector, decreasing the frequency of cleaning and maintenance, thereby saving maintenance costs. The inverted tapered flexible connector's fault-tolerant design makes installation simpler and faster. The fault-tolerant connection within the tapered range of the upper and lower connectors reduces adjustment and calibration work during installation, improving installation efficiency.

[0012] This application provides an inverted conical flexible connector for metering, which solves the technical problem that traditional flexible connectors for metering cannot be used when the center deviation of the upper and lower pipes is large, and that traditional types are prone to causing excessive residual material in the flexible connector, which ultimately affects the metering accuracy.

[0013] The technical solution in this application is to solve the above problems, and the overall approach is as follows:

[0014] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0015] A flexible connector for metering, such as an inverted conical shape. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the system includes an upper connecting pipe 1, a lower connecting pipe 2 for connecting the metering equipment, and a flexible connecting pipe 3 for fixing the upper connecting pipe 1 and the lower connecting pipe 2. The upper connecting pipe 1 is connected to the top end of the flexible connecting pipe 3. The lower connecting pipe 2 is connected to the bottom end of the flexible connecting pipe 3. The vertical surface of the flexible connecting pipe 3 has an inverted conical structure. The top end of the flexible connecting pipe 3 has an upper insertion port 31. The bottom end of the flexible connecting pipe 3 has a lower insertion port 32. The upper connecting pipe 1 is embedded in the upper insertion port 31. The lower connecting pipe 2 is embedded in the lower insertion port 32. The flexible connecting pipe 3 is preferably made of silicone. Because the flexible connecting pipe 3 adopts an inverted conical structure, it can accept the positional deviation of the upper connecting pipe 1 and the lower connecting pipe 2 within the conical circle range, while basically avoiding dead corners for material accumulation, thus ensuring the metering accuracy of the entire metering system.

[0016] The flexible connecting pipe 3, with its inverted conical structure, effectively accommodates positional deviations between the upper connecting pipe 1 and the lower connecting pipe 2. Its inverted conical design allows for tolerant connections within the taper range of the upper and lower connecting pipes. This design significantly improves connection reliability and reduces the risk of installation difficulties or connection failures due to positional deviations. Secondly, the inverted conical structure of the flexible connecting pipe 3 essentially eliminates the problem of material accumulation in dead corners. In traditional flexible connectors, material accumulation in dead corners often leads to reduced metering accuracy and can even affect the normal operation of the entire system. However, the inverted conical structure design of this invention allows materials to flow smoothly, reducing material accumulation inside the connector and thus ensuring the metering accuracy of the metering system. This invention can adapt to positional deviations between the upper and lower connecting pipes, achieving tolerant connections within the taper range. This design significantly reduces the risk of connection failures and improves system stability and reliability. Because the flexible connecting pipe 3 is made of silicone, it has excellent corrosion resistance and wear resistance, resulting in a long service life. Simultaneously, the inverted conical structure design reduces material accumulation inside the connector, decreasing the frequency of cleaning and maintenance, thereby saving maintenance costs. The fault-tolerant design of the inverted tapered flexible connector 3 makes the installation process simpler and faster. The fault-tolerant connection of the upper and lower pipes within the tapered range reduces the adjustment and calibration work during installation, thus improving installation efficiency.
