The first pipe fitting and the second pipe fitting are inserted into the sealing ring. For example, the Chinese utility model patent with the authorization number CN 208295349 U discloses a pipeline joint.
[0004] Because of the limitation of manufacturing precision, production process and the like, there can be a gap at the butt joint of the first lug and the second lug, and after the butt joint of the first arc groove and the second arc groove, a continuous whole circle cannot be formed, that is, the annular groove is disconnected at the butt joint of the first lug and the second lug in the circumferential direction, for example, the first tile body and the second tile body are formed by stamping, and an arc surface is formed at the bending part to form the lug, the gap at the butt joint of the first lug and the second lug is inevitable, so that the sealing ring lacks support at the position of the gap. Under the action of the fluid in the pipe fitting, the sealing ring expands or shrinks to the gap, and when the fluid pressure is unstable, the expansion and shrinkage of the sealing ring at the position are relatively frequent, and the local part is prone to aging, thereby affecting the service life of the sealing ring and causing sealing failure.
[0005] Therefore, further improvement is needed. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS

[0048] Referring to Figures 1 to 14 , it is the preferred embodiment of the pipe joint of the utility model. The pipe joint comprises a first tile body 1, a second tile body 2, a sealing ring 3, a support sleeve 4 and the like main components.
[0049] Among them, the first tile body 1 inner wall has the first arc slot 11, and the first tile body 1 has the first lug 12.
[0050] The second tile body 2 is connected in butt joint with the first tile body 1, and the second tile body 2 inner wall has the second arc slot 21 spliced into the annular groove 10 with the first arc slot 11, and the second tile body 2 has the second lug 22 connected with the first lug 12.
[0051] The sealing ring 3 is annular and is arranged in the annular groove 10.
[0052] Referring to Figures 3 to 14The support sleeve 4 is arranged between the sealing ring 3 and the groove wall of the annular groove 10, and is sleeved on the outer wall of the sealing ring 3 and attached to the outer wall of the sealing ring 3. The support sleeve 4 is an open annular structure extending along the circumference of the sealing ring 3. The opening 4e of the support sleeve 4 is offset from the joint of the first lug 12 and the second lug 22 (see Figure 11 、 Figure 13 ). The gap X of the first lug 12 and the second lug 22 at the joint is shown in Figure 8 、 Figure 9 , Figure 9 . The sealing ring 3 lacks support at the gap X, Figure 8 . The support sleeve 4 supports the sealing ring 3 and prevents the sealing ring 3 from expanding to the gap X. Preferably, the gap of the opening 4e ( Figure 7 ) is small (the smaller the better) when the first lug 12 and the second lug 22 are locked. The strength of the support sleeve 4 is greater than that of the sealing ring 3. For example, the support sleeve 4 is made of zinc steel sheet with a wall thickness of 0.2-0.3 mm, and the sealing ring 3 is made of rubber material. The material of the support sleeve 4 is adjusted as needed to meet the strength requirements of supporting the sealing ring 3 and the fluid acting on the sealing ring 3.

Here, evenly split means substantially evenly split, allowing for some error. At this time, the positions of the first opening 411 and the second opening 421 can be axially aligned or offset. In other embodiments, the proportion of the support sleeve 4 split axially can be adjusted as needed. For example, the support sleeve 4 can be split axially into four-six parts or three-seven parts, so that the sizes of the first support sleeve 41 and the second support sleeve 42 are different.
[0055] The shapes of the sealing ring 3 and the support sleeve 4 are specifically that the sealing ring 3 comprises a ring body 31 and a lip 32, the lip 32 has two and is connected with the corresponding edges of the ring body 31 in the axial direction, the end of the lip 32 connected with the ring body 31 is recorded as a fixed end, and the other end is a free end 321 Figure 3 , Figure 4 ,the free end 321 extends out of the support sleeve 4. Referring to Figure 3 , Figure 4 , the support sleeve 4 comprises a first section 4a and a second section 4b, the first section 4a is attached to the outer wall of the ring body 31, the second section 4b has two and is connected with the corresponding edges of the first section 4a in the axial direction, and each second section 4b is attached to the outer wall of the corresponding lip 32. In the embodiment, the first section 4a is a split part and is divided into a left half section 4c and a right half section 4d, the left half section 4c is connected with the left second section 4b to form a first support sleeve 41, and the right half section 4d is connected with the right second section 4b to form a second support sleeve 41.
