Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of connector technology, and more specifically, to a pipe connector. Background Technology

[0002] Pipe fittings are connecting components used to connect multiple pipes. In the existing technology, when multiple pipes are connected by existing pipe fittings, the connection point of the multiple pipes has the disadvantage of low connection strength, which results in poor resistance to external forces. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a pipe connector that can improve the structural strength of the first pipe and two second pipes after they are connected to the connector body, that is, improve the resistance to external forces at the connection between the first pipe and the two second pipes.

[0004] This utility model provides a pipe connector, including a connector body for connecting a first pipe and two second pipes; a through hole is provided in the middle of the connector body, through which the first pipe passes and is fastened to the connector body; slots are symmetrically provided at the upper and lower ends of the connector body, and one end of each of the two second pipes is inserted into one of the slots and fastened to the connector body.

[0005] By adopting the above structure, the first pipe is inserted into the through hole and fastened to the connector body. This means that the first pipe can help strengthen the structural strength of the connector body, thereby improving the structural strength of the first pipe and the two second pipes after they are connected to the connector body. In other words, it can improve the resistance to external forces at the connection between the first pipe and the two second pipes.

[0006] In one possible implementation, the first pipe is fastened to the connector body by a first screw. The first screw passes through the connector body located on one side of the through hole and through the side wall of the first pipe. The first screw is threadedly fastened to both the connector body and the first pipe. With this structure, the first pipe can be reliably fastened to the connector body under the action of the first screw.

[0007] In one possible implementation, one end of each second tube is fastened to the connector body by a second screw. Each second screw passes through the connector body located on the side of the corresponding slot and through the side wall of the corresponding second tube. Each second screw is threadedly fastened to the connector body and the corresponding second tube. With this structure, under the action of the second screw, the end of each second tube can be reliably fastened to the connector body.

[0008] In one possible implementation, both the first and second pipes are square tubes, with the shape of the through hole matching the shape of the first pipe and the shape of the slot matching the shape of the second pipe. By adopting this structure, when both the first and second pipes are square tubes, the shape of the through hole matches the shape of the first pipe and the shape of the slot matches the shape of the second pipe, thus enabling the first pipe to be more securely inserted into the through hole and the end of the second pipe to be more securely inserted into the slot.

[0009] In one possible implementation, both the first and second pipes are round pipes, with the shape of the through hole matching the shape of the first pipe and the shape of the slot matching the shape of the second pipe. By adopting this structure, when both the first and second pipes are round pipes, the shape of the through hole matches the shape of the first pipe and the shape of the slot matches the shape of the second pipe, thus enabling the first pipe to be more securely inserted into the through hole and the end of the second pipe to be more securely inserted into the slot.

[0010] In one possible implementation, an annular step is provided on the side wall of the inner end of each slot, which is used to abut against the end of the second tube. With this structure, after the end of the second tube is inserted into the slot, the end of the second tube can abut against the annular step, thereby limiting the position of the second tube and the connector body, which facilitates the assembly of the second tube and the connector body.

[0011] In one possible implementation, an annular guide surface is provided on the inner wall of the outer end of each slot. The annular guide surface is used to guide the end of the second tube so that the end of the second tube can be inserted into the slot. With this structure, when the end of the second tube is inserted into the slot, the annular guide surface can guide the end of the second tube so that the end of the second tube can be inserted into the slot, which can facilitate the insertion process of the end of the second tube into the slot.

[0012] In one possible implementation, both the first pipe and the second pipe are metal-coated plastic pipes. By using metal-coated plastic pipes as the first pipe and the second pipe, the first pipe and the second pipe have the advantages of high strength and high rigidity, that is, they can withstand greater weight and external forces, and can effectively prevent the first pipe and the second pipe from rusting. In addition, there is no need to spray or electroplate the first pipe and the second pipe, which has the advantage of being environmentally friendly. Furthermore, in this application, the first pipe and the second pipe are plastic-coated steel pipes. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0025] Implementation Method 1:

[0026] See Figure 1-4 As shown in the figure, this application discloses a pipe connector, including a connector body 3 for connecting a first pipe 1 and two second pipes 2; the connector body 3 has a through hole 31 that extends horizontally through the middle of the connector body 3, the first pipe 1 passes through the through hole 31 and is fastened to the connector body 3; slots 32 are symmetrically provided at the upper and lower ends of the connector body 3, one end of each of the two second pipes 2 is inserted into one of the slots 32 and fastened to the connector body 3.

[0027] The first pipe 1 is fastened to the connector body 3 by the first screw 4. The first screw 4 passes through the connector body 3 located on one side of the through hole 31 and through the side wall of the first pipe 1. The first screw 4 is threadedly fastened to both the connector body 3 and the first pipe 1. With this structure, the first pipe can be reliably fastened to the connector body under the action of the first screw.

[0028] One end of each second tube 2 is fastened to the connector body 3 by a second screw 5. Each second screw 5 is inserted into the connector body 3 located on one side of the corresponding slot 32 and into the side wall of the corresponding second tube 2. Each second screw 5 is threadedly fastened to the connector body 3 and the corresponding second tube 2. With this structure, under the action of the second screw, the end of each second tube can be reliably fastened to the connector body.

[0029] Both the first tube 1 and the second tube 2 are square tubes. The shape of the through hole 31 is adapted to the shape of the first tube 1, and the shape of the slot 32 is adapted to the shape of the second tube 2. By adopting this structure, when both the first tube and the second tube are square tubes, since the shape of the through hole is adapted to the shape of the first tube and the shape of the slot is adapted to the shape of the second tube, the first tube can be more securely inserted into the through hole, and the end of the second tube can be more securely inserted into the slot.

[0030] Each slot 32 has an annular guide surface 322 on the inner wall of its outer end. The annular guide surface 322 is used to guide the end of the second tube 2 so that the end of the second tube 2 can be inserted into the slot 32. With this structure, when the end of the second tube is inserted into the slot, the annular guide surface can guide the end of the second tube so that the end of the second tube can be inserted into the slot, which can facilitate the insertion process of the end of the second tube into the slot.

[0031] Both the first pipe 1 and the second pipe 2 are metal-coated plastic pipes. By using metal-coated plastic pipes as the first and second pipes, the first and second pipes have the advantages of high strength and high rigidity, that is, they can withstand greater weight and external force, and can effectively prevent the first and second pipes from rusting. In addition, there is no need to spray or electroplate the first and second pipes, which has the advantage of being environmentally friendly. Furthermore, in this application, the first and second pipes are plastic-coated steel pipes.

[0032] Implementation Method Two:

[0033] Referring to Figure 5-8, the difference from Embodiment 1 is:

[0034] Both the first tube 1 and the second tube 2 are round tubes. The shape of the through hole 31 is adapted to the shape of the first tube 1, and the shape of the slot 32 is adapted to the shape of the second tube 2. By adopting this structure, when both the first tube and the second tube are round tubes, since the shape of the through hole is adapted to the shape of the first tube and the shape of the slot is adapted to the shape of the second tube, the first tube can be more securely inserted into the through hole, and the end of the second tube can be more securely inserted into the slot.

[0035] Each slot 32 has an annular step 321 on the side wall of its inner end. The annular step 321 is used to abut against the end of the second tube 2. With this structure, after the end of the second tube is inserted into the slot, the end of the second tube can abut against the annular step, thereby limiting the position of the second tube and the connector body, which facilitates the assembly of the second tube and the connector body.

[0036] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the scope of protection of this application should be determined by the scope of the claims.
