[0036] Embodiment 1

[0037] As Figure 1 It is the first embodiment of the utility model of adjustable pipe joint assembly, including two receiving pipes 1 and adjusting pipe 2, the inner diameter of adjusting pipe 2 decreases from both ends to the middle, a plurality of deformation grooves 11 are set up on the end of receiving pipe 1, a plurality of clamping pawl 12 are between a plurality of deformation grooves 11, and receiving pipe 1 is detachably connected with the inner side of receiving pipe 1 through clamping pawl 12.

[0038] Through this setting mode, when the user needs to connect the pipes of different diameters, the user first inserts the two pipes to be connected through receiving pipe 1, then inserts the clamping pawl 12 of receiving pipe 1 into adjusting pipe 2, in the process of inserting, the inner wall of adjusting pipe 2 extrudes clamping pawl 12, so that clamping pawl 12 clamps the pipe to be connected, then the card claw and receiving pipe 1 are fixed through thread connection or clamping mode, and the installation can be completed, the above operation is carried out on the pipe to be connected 3 at both ends of adjusting pipe 2, and the two incompatible pipes can be connected together, the pipe joint assembly can be compatible with a plurality of different sizes of pipes, greatly improves the versatility between pipe and pipe, and is convenient to operate, without special equipment, improves the efficiency of pipe assembly.

[0039] As an embodiment of the utility model, the outer side of clamping pawl 12 is provided with external thread structure, the inner wall of adjusting pipe 2 is provided with internal thread structure, and receiving pipe 1 is threadedly connected with adjusting pipe 2 through clamping pawl 12.

[0040] With this setup, when the size of the receiving pipe 1 needs to be adjusted to clamp the pipe 3 to be connected, the jaws 12 of the receiving pipe 1 are screwed into the inner wall of the adjusting pipe 2. During the screwing process, the inner wall of the adjusting pipe 2 gradually presses the jaws 12, causing the jaws 12 to contract and clamp the pipe 3 to be connected through the receiving pipe 1. After the jaws 12 clamp the pipe 3 to be connected, the jaws 12 can no longer contract, thus making the external thread on the jaws 12 and the internal thread on the adjusting pipe 2 tightly connected, improving the stability of the connection.

[0041] Example 2

[0042] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 The following is a second embodiment of an adjustable pipe connector assembly of the present invention. This embodiment is similar to embodiment 1, except that the connection method between the claw piece 12 and the adjusting pipe 2 is different.

[0048] Through the setting mode, when the receiving pipe 1 is inserted, the first boss 121 may deviate and fail to be directly opposite the channel 22, at this time, the first boss 121 and the second boss 21 interact, at this time, the first boss 121 contacts the slope structure on the second boss 21, which is convenient for reducing the resistance of the first boss 121 in the insertion process, makes the insertion process of the first boss 121 more smooth, and improves the convenience of installation; when the receiving pipe 1 is inserted, the second boss 21 limits the first boss 121, the wall of the second boss 21 perpendicular to the inner wall of the adjusting pipe 2 can ensure stable limiting, avoids the first boss 121 from falling, and is favorable for improving the stability of connection.

[0049] As an embodiment of the utility model, the first boss 121 is provided with a slope 1211 on the side towards the end of the receiving pipe 1.

[0050] Through the setting mode, when the receiving pipe 1 is inserted, the first boss 121 may deviate and fail to be directly opposite the channel 22, at this time, the first boss 121 and the second boss 21 interact, at this time, the first boss 121 contacts the slope structure on the second boss 21, which is convenient for reducing the resistance of the first boss 121 in the insertion process, makes the insertion process of the first boss 121 more smooth, and improves the convenience of installation.

[0051] As an embodiment of the utility model, the second boss 21 extends along the circumferential direction of the adjusting pipe 2, and the plurality of second bosses 21 are equidistantly arranged along the axial direction of the adjusting pipe 2.

[0052] Through the setting mode, the adjusting pipe 2 is provided with corresponding second bosses 21 at different depths, after the user inserts the receiving pipe 1 into the adjusting pipe 2 to the appropriate depth, the receiving pipe 1 is rotated, the first boss 121 is clamped with the second boss 21 of the corresponding depth, and the fixed connection between the receiving pipe 1 and the adjusting pipe 2 is completed.

[0053] Embodiment 3

[0054] The following is a third embodiment of the utility model of the adjustable pipe joint assembly, which is similar to the first embodiment, and the difference lies in that the deformation groove 11 and the claw piece 12 are further limited.

[0055] As an embodiment of the utility model, the plurality of deformation grooves 11 are equidistantly distributed along the circumferential direction of the receiving pipe 1.

[0056] Through the setting mode, the equidistantly distributed deformation grooves 11 are favorable for making the receiving pipe 1 deform uniformly, reducing stress concentration after installation of the receiving pipe 1, and improving the service life of the pipe fitting.

[0057] As an embodiment of the present application, the claw pieces 12 are provided with four pieces.

[0058] Through the setting mode, the multiple claw pieces 12 clamp the pipe to be connected 3 from four directions, which is beneficial to uniform stress, reduces stress concentration, and improves the connection stability between the receiving pipe 1 and the pipe to be connected 3.

[0059] As an embodiment of the present application, the inner side of the deformation groove 11 is chamfered. Through the setting mode, it is beneficial to reduce the stress concentration when the claw piece 12 deforms, improve the service life of the receiving pipe 1, and expand the deformation range of the claw piece 12.
