Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipeline connection technology, and in particular to a connection structure for aerospace fuel delivery pipelines. Background Technology
[0002] Space fuel delivery pipelines are an important component of the rocket fuel delivery system at space launch centers, playing a crucial role in the rocket launch process.
[0003] In aerospace fuel delivery pipeline systems, rubber joints are an indispensable component. These rubber joints have excellent elasticity, corrosion resistance, and shock absorption, and can effectively buffer vibrations and thermal expansion and contraction in pipelines under extremely harsh working environments, such as high pressure, high temperature, and extremely corrosive media.
[0004] In some existing technologies, the connection structures of most aerospace fuel delivery pipelines suffer from wear and tear on the sealing rings after prolonged use. If these rings are not replaced in time, problems such as poor sealing performance, easy leakage, and complex maintenance will occur, resulting in a short service life. Utility Model Content
[0005] The main purpose of this utility model is to provide a connection structure for aerospace fuel delivery pipelines, which can effectively solve the problems of poor sealing effect, easy leakage, complex maintenance, and short service life in most existing aerospace fuel delivery pipeline connection structures after long-term use, where the sealing ring is worn and cannot be replaced in time.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0007] A connection structure for an aerospace fuel delivery pipeline includes a first pipeline, a second pipeline located at the right end of the first pipeline, an outer sealing mechanism fixedly connected to the outer surfaces of the first and second pipelines, a fixing mechanism fixedly connected to the outer surface of the outer sealing mechanism, and an inner sealing mechanism fixedly connected to the inner sides of the first and second pipelines.
[0008] Preferably, a sealing groove seat one is fixedly connected to the right side of the outer surface of the first pipe, and a sealing groove seat two is fixedly connected to the left side of the outer surface of the second pipe. Springs are symmetrically fixedly connected to the inner surfaces of both the sealing groove seat one and the sealing groove seat two, and a limit telescopic rod is provided on the inner side of each of the springs.
[0009] Preferably, a reinforcing seat is fixedly connected to the outer surface of both ends of several springs and the limiting telescopic rod, and a sealing ring is fixedly connected to the right end of several springs and the reinforcing seat located on the left end. A ring sealing block is fixedly connected to the right end of the sealing ring.
[0010] Preferably, the left ends of several springs and limiting telescopic rods located on the right end are jointly fixedly connected to a second sealing ring, and the left end of the second sealing ring is fixedly connected to an annular sealing groove seat, and the annular sealing block and the annular sealing groove seat are engaged.
[0011] Preferably, both the outer surfaces of the first sealing groove seat and the second sealing groove seat are fixedly connected with fixing rings, and the inner surfaces of the two fixing rings are symmetrically provided with threaded grooves.
[0012] Preferably, the inner surfaces of the plurality of threaded grooves are threaded with threaded rods, and the outer surfaces of the right ends of the plurality of threaded rods are threaded with nuts.
[0013] Preferably, a sealing ring is fixedly connected to the right side of the inner surface of the first pipe, and a sealing ring holder is slidably connected to the right side of the outer surface of the sealing ring, with the right end of the sealing ring holder fixedly connected to the left side of the inner surface of the second pipe.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] 1. In the implementation of this utility model, by setting an external sealing mechanism, most aerospace fuel delivery pipeline connection structures, after long-term use, will experience problems such as poor sealing effect, easy leakage, and complicated maintenance if the sealing rings are not replaced in time due to wear. To address this, the annular sealing block inside the sealing groove seat one engages with the annular sealing groove seat inside the sealing groove seat two. When wear occurs at the annular sealing block and the annular sealing groove seat, the spring at their rear end will push the sealing ring one and the sealing ring two towards the opposite end, thereby repairing the worn areas of the sealing rings, helping to extend the service life of the sealing device and reduce the frequency of sealing device replacement.
[0016] 2. In the implementation of this utility model, by setting an internal sealing mechanism, the left part of the sealing ring is fixed to the first pipe, and the right part is slidably connected to the inner side of the second pipe. The right end of the sealing ring holder is fixed to the inner side of the second pipe, and the right end of the sealing ring is slidably connected to the inner side of the sealing ring holder, thus achieving double sealing and improving the sealing effect at the connection between the first pipe and the second pipe.
