[0024] Example

[0025] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a cast iron double-ended locking anti-disengagement fast connector includes a double-ended connector 6, a rubber sealing ring 5, and a locking body 2. The two ends of the double-ended connector 6 are respectively connected to a first pipe 1 and a second pipe 7. The two ends of the double-ended connector 6 are respectively provided with a rubber sealing ring 5 and a steel gasket 4. An elastic steel hoop 3 is sleeved on the outside of the double-ended connector 6. The inner side of the elastic steel hoop 3 is provided with an annular trapezoidal protrusion. The locking body 2 is sleeved on the outside of the elastic steel hoop 3. The elastic steel hoop 3 is driven to contract radially through a mechanical connection, so that the annular trapezoidal protrusion on the inner side of the elastic steel hoop 3 hugs the outer wall of the pipe to form a lock.

[0026] The locking body 2 is connected to the elastic steel hoop 3 by threads. The threads are used to convert the rotational motion into radial pressure on the elastic steel hoop 3. The annular trapezoidal protrusions of the elastic steel hoop 3 are arranged continuously or intermittently, with a height of 0.5-2mm, and are used to clamp the outer wall of the pipe to form a mechanical clamp. The rubber sealing ring 5 and the steel gasket 4 are stacked in sequence at both ends of the double-headed connector 6 to form a composite sealing structure. The steel gasket 4 is an annular metal sheet with a thickness of 1-3mm.

[0027] The double-ended connector 6 and locking body 2 are made of cast iron, and the elastic steel hoop 3 is made of spring steel or low carbon steel; the outer surface of the locking body 2 is provided with a wrench slot for assisting manual or tool operation.

[0028] Working principle:

[0029] ① Initial installation and positioning: Align the two ends of the double-ended connector 6 of the quick-connect body with the first pipe 1 and the second pipe 7 respectively. At this time, the composite sealing structure formed by the rubber sealing ring 5 and the steel gasket 4 initially contacts the pipe port, providing an initial seal.

[0030] ②Mechanical locking drive: by rotating the locking body 2 (the outer surface is provided with a wrench slot), the rotation is converted into the radial contraction force of the elastic steel hoop 3 by the thread cooperation with the double-head connecting body 6. The elastic steel hoop 3 made of spring steel or low-carbon steel material is elastically deformed under the radial pressure, and the inside annular trapezoidal protrusion gradually holds the pipe outer wall.

[0031] ③Mechanical holding anti-dropping: when the elastic steel hoop 3 is contracted, the inside annular trapezoidal protrusion (continuous or intermittent arrangement) increases the radial pressure and axial friction force of the elastic steel hoop 3 and the pipe outer wall, thereby preventing the pipe from being axially separated. The elastic recovery force of the spring steel continuously maintains the holding state, ensuring the connection stability under dynamic working conditions.

[0032] ④Composite sealing enhancement: the rubber sealing ring 5 is elastically deformed under the synergistic effect of the steel pad 4, and fills the micro gap between the pipe and the quick connecting body. The rigid support of the steel pad 4 avoids excessive compression of the rubber, forming a "rigid and flexible combination" double sealing barrier, effectively resisting medium leakage.

[0033] ⑤Material performance guarantee: the double-head connecting body 6 and the locking body 2 made of cast iron provide high-strength support, and the elastic steel hoop 3 made of spring steel has elastic energy storage and fatigue resistance characteristics, ensuring the structural reliability under long-term repeated use.

[0034] Therefore, the utility model adopts the above structure of a cast iron double-head locking anti-dropping quick connecting body, realizes the integrated function of quick installation, anti-dropping locking and reliable sealing through the double action of mechanical holding and composite sealing, and is suitable for the pipeline system which needs to be frequently disassembled.

[0035] Finally, it should be pointed out that: the above examples are only used to illustrate the technical scheme of the utility model and not to limit it, although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that: the technical scheme of the utility model can still be modified or replaced, and these modifications or equivalent replacements cannot make the modified technical scheme deviate from the spirit and scope of the utility model technical scheme.
