AI Technical Summary
When existing metal pipe connection devices are used in high temperature, high pressure and vibration environments, corrugated compensators are prone to aging, fatigue and corrosion, resulting in reduced sealing and connection strength, and low disassembly and assembly efficiency. In particular, bolt connection is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and clamp connection has insufficient strength and sealing.
It adopts a locking structure and inner liner design. The locking structure includes a fixing plate, a rotating shaft, a limiting strip, and a fastening shaft. The inner liner is longer than the corrugated pipe. The pipe end is clamped by the limiting strip and the corrugated pipe. Combined with the reinforcing rod and the fastening nut, quick assembly and disassembly can be achieved.
It enables rapid assembly and disassembly of metal pipes while ensuring connection strength and sealing, thus improving assembly and disassembly efficiency and enhancing the tightness and sealing of the connection.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of pipe joint technology, and relates to connection devices, specifically a metal pipe connection device. Background Technology
[0002] When corrugated compensators are connected to pipelines, they are usually connected using connecting devices. In the petroleum, natural gas and other chemical industries, the main reason why corrugated compensators need to be replaced frequently is that the use in high temperature and high pressure environments causes the materials of the corrugated compensators to gradually age, metal fatigue, corrosion and other phenomena, which affect their performance and lifespan. In addition, since pipeline systems in the chemical industry are often subjected to high liquid flow rates, impacts and vibrations, these factors may also cause damage and wear to the corrugated compensators. Therefore, it is necessary to replace the corrugated compensators frequently.
[0003] Existing connection devices typically involve butt-jointing two flanges and securing them with bolts. In environments requiring frequent disassembly and maintenance of the bellows compensator, the disassembly and assembly of numerous bolts not only increases the workload of workers but also reduces their efficiency. Furthermore, during disassembly, the flanges may become stuck together due to aging of the sealing rings caused by prolonged connection, necessitating the use of prying tools, which can easily damage the flanges. Another method uses clamps to connect the bellows compensator to the pipeline, which allows for quick assembly and disassembly, but the connection strength and sealing performance of clamp-fixing are inferior to bolted connections. Therefore, this paper proposes a metal pipeline connection device that can guarantee both connection strength and sealing while enabling quick assembly and disassembly. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the aforementioned shortcomings in the existing technology, this utility model aims to provide a metal pipe connection device that can achieve rapid assembly and disassembly while ensuring strength and sealing.

[0007] As a limitation of this utility model, the locking structure includes at least four fixing plate groups fixed to the outside of the bellows end. Each fixing plate group includes two fixing plates, and a rotating shaft is sandwiched between the two fixing plates. A portal frame is rotatably sleeved between the two fixing plates and on the rotating shaft. Two through holes are opened on the crossbeam of the portal frame. A threaded fastening shaft passes through each through hole. One end of the fastening shaft is rotatably inserted on the crossbeam of the portal frame, and a limit ring is fixedly provided at the end of the fastening shaft placed inside the portal frame. A handle is fixedly provided at the end of the fastening shaft away from the limit ring.
[0008] As a further limitation of this utility model, the locking structure also includes at least four limiting strips, each of which has a fastening groove with an internal thread that meshes with the external thread of the fastening shaft at the position corresponding to the fastening shaft.

[0010] As a further limitation of this utility model, at least four reinforcing rods are provided at both ends along the axial direction of the bellows, and each reinforcing rod has external threads at both ends.
[0011] As a further limitation of this utility model, each reinforcing rod is fitted with a fastening nut at its end, which has an internal thread that mates with the external thread of the reinforcing rod.
[0012] As another limitation of this utility model, the length of the inner lining tube is greater than the length of the corrugated tube.
[0013] By adopting the above-mentioned technical solution, the beneficial effects achieved by this utility model compared with the prior art are as follows:

[0015] (2) This utility model relates to a metal pipe connection device, which improves the tightness and sealing of the connection device and the connected pipe by setting an inner liner tube with a length longer than that of the corrugated pipe inside the corrugated pipe, with the ends of the inner liner tube longer than the corrugated pipe extending into the two sets of pipes to be connected, and then clamping the pipe ports to be connected between the limiting strip and the corrugated pipe.
[0016] In summary, this utility model relates to a metal pipe connection device that can effectively achieve rapid assembly and disassembly while ensuring strength and sealing.
