Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to a special-shaped crossing tee, in particular to a special-shaped crossing tee for ductile cast iron heat pipe. BACKGROUND

[0002] Ductile cast iron pipe is widely used in urban heat pipe network system due to its many advantages, including high strength, high ductility, excellent corrosion resistance, thin wall and light weight, strong impact resistance and convenient installation, etc. In the heat pipe network system, the ductile cast iron pipe mainly undertakes the task of heat transmission, and is responsible for efficiently transporting heat from the heat supply center to each building.

[0003] However, the laying method of the heat pipe usually requires that the supply and return water two-way pipes are laid side by side. Under such a layout, when a branch needs to be opened during the laying of the heat pipe, certain challenges will be faced. The traditional solution is to combine a straight horizontal tee with a straight pipe section, an elbow and other pipe fittings to realize the opening of the branch. However, this method not only increases the use of pipe fittings, but also requires self-anchoring connection between all pipe fittings to solve the problem of blind plate force, which undoubtedly further increases the construction difficulty on site.

[0004] Therefore, it is urgent to provide a special-shaped crossing tee for ductile cast iron heat pipe to solve the problem of difficult branch opening during heat pipe construction. SUMMARY

[0005] The utility model aims to solve the technical problem of difficult branch opening during the construction of the existing heat pipe, and provides a special-shaped crossing tee for ductile cast iron heat pipe.

[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the technical solution provided by the utility model is as follows:

[0007] A special-shaped crossing tee for ductile cast iron heat pipe, comprising a main pipe and a branch pipe connected to the main pipe through an arc-shaped connecting pipe.

[0008] Both ends of the main pipe and the port of the branch pipe are provided with a socket joint; the socket joint and the socket joint are connected in a socket connection.

[0009] Further, the socket joint is trumpet-shaped.

[0010] A ring-shaped sealing ring mounting groove is formed on the inner side wall of the socket joint, and a sealing ring is mounted in the sealing ring mounting groove.

[0011] Further, a ring-shaped sealing ring deformation filling groove is formed on the inner side wall of the socket joint and communicates with the sealing ring mounting groove.

[0012] Further, the projections of the branch pipe and the main pipe in the same plane are perpendicular to each other.

[0013] Further, the pipe diameter of the branch pipe is the same as that of the main pipe.

[0014] Further, the materials of the main pipe, the branch pipe, the arc-shaped connecting pipe and the receiving head are all nodular cast iron.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the advantages of:

[0016] 1.

[0017] 2. The special-shaped crossing tee for the nodular cast iron heat pipe is connected with the plug-in connector of the nodular cast iron heat pipe through the receiving head, the receiving head is trumpet-shaped and can be effectively connected with the plug-in connector of the nodular cast iron heat pipe; meanwhile, the annular sealing ring mounting groove and the sealing ring deformation filling groove which are connected with the annular sealing ring mounting groove on the inner wall of the receiving head can ensure that the sealing ring can be stably mounted and effectively sealed after the plug-in connector of the nodular cast iron heat pipe is inserted, thereby improving the anti-permeability and safety of the pipeline.

[0018] 3. The special-shaped crossing tee for the nodular cast iron heat pipe is characterized in that the projections of the branch pipe and the main pipe in the same plane are perpendicular to each other, which not only meets the construction specification of the heat pipe but also makes the pipeline layout more reasonable and beautiful; meanwhile, the pipe diameter of the branch pipe is the same as that of the main pipe, so that the flow and pressure of the pipeline system are stable and the heat transmission efficiency is improved.
