Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipeline connection structure technology, specifically a pipeline connection structure for a natural gas recovery device. Background Technology

[0002] Natural gas pipelines are pipelines that transport natural gas (including associated gas from oil fields) from extraction sites or processing plants to urban gas distribution centers or industrial users. They are also called gas transmission pipelines. Using natural gas pipelines to transport natural gas is the way to transport large quantities of natural gas on land. China was the first country to use wooden or bamboo pipes to transport natural gas. In the process of natural gas transportation, multiple transmission pipelines need to be connected, so connecting devices are needed to connect the natural gas pipelines.

[0003] Chinese patent CN218441105U discloses a connection structure for a natural gas pipeline. By bringing a second pipeline closer to a first pipeline, a collar contacts the first pipeline. Rotating the collar, assisted by a threaded structure, moves it towards the first pipeline, causing the second pipeline to move towards the first pipeline as well. During rotation, the collar grips an auxiliary plate between positioning rings via a through groove. The protruding auxiliary plate facilitates the collar's rotation. The top plate is a semi-circle with a diameter equal to the width of the auxiliary plate, preventing sharp edges from injuring workers and enhancing the auxiliary plate's aesthetics. When the collar rotates along the threaded plate on the exposed section surface, the tip of the fixing plate engages with the threads of the threaded plate under the force of a telescopic spring, further securing the connected collar and preventing loosening. A limiting plate moves within a limiting groove, providing support and stabilizing the fixing plate's movement. A fixing screw rotates into a threaded hole, allowing the positioning sleeve to be easily installed inside the collar.

[0004] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, in the existing technology, the connecting devices are inconvenient to disassemble and assemble when inspecting pipelines, causing maintenance workers to spend a lot of time disassembling and assembling them, resulting in low inspection efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a pipeline connection structure for a natural gas recovery device. By using this device, the problem of inconvenient disassembly and assembly of the connection device during pipeline inspection is solved, which leads to maintenance workers spending a lot of time disassembling and assembling the pipeline, resulting in low inspection efficiency.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a pipeline connection structure for a natural gas recovery device, including a connecting device, a gas pipe installed inside the connecting device, the connecting device including a connecting pipe, two sets of fixing components fixedly installed on the outer side of the connecting pipe, two sets of straight grooves and two sets of annular grooves opened on the inner side of the connecting pipe, each set of straight grooves communicating with the annular grooves, and each set of straight grooves and annular grooves being centrally symmetrically distributed on the inner side of the connecting pipe, two sets of square grooves penetrating through the outer side of the connecting pipe, the square grooves matching the fixing components; two sets of locking blocks fixedly installed on the outer side of the gas pipe, the locking blocks matching the straight grooves and the locking blocks matching the annular grooves, and two sets of limiting blocks fixedly installed on the outer side of the gas pipe. When it is necessary to connect the connecting device to the gas pipe, by aligning the locking blocks with the straight grooves, the gas pipe is inserted into the connecting device, and when the locking blocks abut against the annular grooves, they are rotated 90° clockwise to engage both sets of locking blocks with the fixing components.

[0007] Preferably, one end of the connecting pipe is fixedly equipped with two sets of fitting components, which match the limiting block. When the gas pipe is inserted into the connecting pipe and rotated 90° clockwise, the limiting block and the fitting components engage to perform a secondary locking, preventing the gas pipe from shaking during the gas transmission process and causing natural gas leakage.

[0008] Preferably, a flange is fixedly installed at the end of the connecting pipe away from the gas pipe, and the connecting pipe is fixed to the natural gas recovery device through the flange.

[0009] Preferably, the fixing component includes a U-shaped connecting block, the lower end of which is fixedly connected to the connecting pipe. A bolt is installed on the internal thread of the U-shaped connecting block, and the connecting block is fixedly installed at the lower end of the bolt. A fitting block is fixedly installed on one side of the connecting block, and a protruding piece is fixedly provided on the outer side of the fitting block. The fitting block matches the locking block. When the locking block abuts against the annular groove, it is rotated 90° clockwise to fit the locking block and the fitting block together. The protruding piece tightly fits them together. By rotating the bolt, the fitting block is pulled upward to tightly fit the gas pipe and the connecting pipe together.

[0010] Preferably, the fitting component includes two sets of connecting blocks II, one end of which is fixedly connected to the connecting tube. A clip and a block are slidably installed between the two sets of connecting blocks II. Two sets of connecting shells are fixedly installed on the upper end of the connecting blocks II. A spring is fixedly installed inside each of the two sets of connecting shells. A U-shaped connecting block II is fixedly installed on the upper end of the spring. A clip and a rod are fixedly installed on the lower end of the U-shaped connecting block II. The lower end of the clip and the rod passes through the connecting block II and the clip and the block and is slidably connected to the clip and the block. A connecting ball is fixedly installed on the upper end of the U-shaped connecting block II.

[0011] Preferably, the limiting block matches the locking block. When the gas pipe is inserted into the connecting pipe and rotated 90° clockwise, the limiting block and the locking block engage. Pulling the connecting ball upwards moves the locking rod away from the locking block, pushing the locking block to match the limiting block, and inserting the locking rod back in fixes the locking block and the limiting block together, preventing it from flipping over and leaking natural gas.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

Two sets of square grooves are opened through the outer side of the connecting pipe, and the square grooves match the fixing components. Two sets of locking blocks are fixedly installed on the outer side of the gas pipe, matching the straight grooves and the annular grooves. Two sets of limiting blocks are fixedly installed on the outer side of the gas pipe. When it is necessary to connect the connecting device to the gas pipe, the gas pipe is inserted into the connecting device by aligning the locking blocks with the straight grooves. When the locking blocks abut against the annular grooves, they are rotated 90° clockwise to engage both sets of locking blocks with the fixing components. Attached Figure Description
