In addition, the terms "first", "second" are only used to distinguish in the description, and have no special meaning.

[0039] As Figure 2As shown, the embodiment provides a quick plug structure, which comprises a first component, a second component and a plug-in part 3, one end of the first component is provided with a male pipe joint 1, one end of the second component is provided with a female pipe joint 2, the male pipe joint 1 is plugged into the female pipe joint 2, and the plug-in part 3 is used to realize the axial fixed connection between the male pipe joint 1 and the female pipe joint 2, so as to realize the quick plug connection between the first component and the second component. It should be noted that the first component and the second component can be ball valves, gate valves, pressure reducing valves, check valves, stop valves, pipe fittings or pipe joints, etc., which are not limited here.

[0040] Specifically, in combination with Figures 2 to 5 As shown, a limiting groove 11 is formed on the outer side wall of the male pipe joint 1, the limiting groove 11 is a circular ring, the female pipe joint 2 comprises a body 21 and a connecting boss 22, the body 21 is provided with a plug hole 211, the plug hole 211 penetrates the side wall of the body 21 and divides the body 21 into a first segment and a second segment, the connecting boss 22 is protruded on the outer side wall of the body 21 and is arranged between the first segment and the second segment, and the plug-in part 3 is arranged in the plug hole 211 and is limited in the limiting groove 11.

[0041] During installation, one end of the male pipe joint 1 is first inserted into the female pipe joint 2, so that the limiting groove 11 is aligned with the plug hole 211, and then the plug-in part 3 is inserted from the plug hole 211, the plug-in part 3 is arranged in the plug hole 211 and is limited in the limiting groove 11 at the same time, thereby realizing the axial fixed connection between the female pipe joint 2 and the male pipe joint 1, so as to ensure that the male pipe joint 1 and the female pipe joint 2 cannot relatively displace in the axial direction, and during disassembly, the plug-in part 3 can be pulled out outward, which is convenient and fast, and greatly improves the disassembly efficiency.

[0042] When machining the inner hole and the plug hole 211 of the female pipe joint 2, only lathe machining equipment is needed to complete the machining, so that the machining efficiency is greatly improved and the production cost is reduced.

[0043] By arranging the connecting boss 22 on the side wall of the body 21, the wall thickness of part of the position of the body 21 is increased, and the plug hole 211 penetrating the body 21 will not be broken due to the connecting action of the connecting boss 22 during machining, and the structural strength can still be ensured. Moreover, the connecting boss 22 can limit the plug-in part 3, prevent the plug-in part 3 from rotating in the circumferential direction, so that the plug-in part 3 is not easy to be pulled out, and connection failure is avoided.

[0044] By Figure 2 As can be seen, the cross sections of the male pipe joint 1 and the female pipe joint 2 are both circular, so the plug hole 211 is an annular hole and penetrates the side wall of the body 21 in the radial direction.

[0045] In the embodiment, as Figure 3As shown, the inner diameter r of the connecting boss 22 can be slightly larger than the outer diameter R of the body 21, that is, after the insertion hole 211 penetrates the body 21, a certain depth is further machined on the connecting boss 22, but the depth is very small, which needs to ensure the structural strength. In other alternative embodiments, the inner diameter r of the connecting boss 22 can also be equal to the outer diameter R of the body 21, that is, the insertion hole 211 just penetrates the body 21, and does not process on the connecting boss 22.

[0046] As shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 In the present embodiment, the splicing piece 3 is a U-shaped piece, which is an integral molding structure, including two limiting portions 311 and a connecting portion 312 connected between the two limiting portions 311, each limiting portion 311 is respectively penetrated in the insertion hole 211 and is simultaneously limited in the limiting groove 11, the connecting boss 22 is located outside the limiting portion 311, limiting the limiting portion 311, preventing the U-shaped piece from rotating, so that the U-shaped piece is not easy to be pulled out, avoiding the connection failure. By setting the U-shaped piece, the U-shaped piece is double-sidedly stressed in the axial direction, the stress is uniform, ensuring the coaxiality of the installation axis of the male pipe joint 1 and the female pipe joint 2, avoiding the non-uniform axial stress caused by the water pressure of the pipeline, which leads to the sealing leakage,

[0047] In the present embodiment, as shown in Figure 6 The U-shaped piece is a U-shaped plug plate 31. The limiting stress of the U-shaped plug plate 31 is a plane contact stress, which can enhance the stress area and avoid damage and deformation caused by long-term axial stress.

[0048] As shown in Figure 6 The U-shaped plug plate 31 further includes a hand holding portion 313, which is located outside the insertion hole 211 and is connected with the connecting portion 312 and is arranged at an angle. The hand holding portion 313 can facilitate the plugging and unplugging action of the U-shaped plug plate 31, and is convenient and fast to disassemble and assemble.

[0049] Further, as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 The inner side of the limiting portion 311 includes an arc-shaped side 3111, which is matched with the groove bottom of the limiting groove 11. When the limiting portion 311 is inserted into the insertion hole 211 of the female pipe joint 2, the arc-shaped side 3111 of the limiting portion 311 is matched with the groove bottom of the limiting groove 11, showing the state of holding the male pipe joint 1 as shown in Figure 5 , thereby realizing the axial limiting action between the male pipe joint 1 and the female pipe joint 2, and the connection is stable, which can ensure the coaxiality of the installation axis of the male pipe joint 1 and the female pipe joint 2.

[0050] Further, the inner side of the limiting part 311 further comprises a straight line edge 3112, which is connected to one end of the arc-shaped edge 3111 and close to the free end of the limiting part 311, and the minimum distance between the straight line edges 3112 of the two limiting parts 311 is less than the diameter of the groove bottom of the limiting groove 11. In this way, after the U-shaped plug plate 31 is inserted, the U-shaped plug plate 31 can be prevented from falling off.

[0051] Of course, in another alternative embodiment, the U-shaped member can also be a U-shaped plug pin with a circular cross section, both free ends of the U-shaped plug pin are respectively arranged in the insertion hole 211 and simultaneously limited in the limiting groove 11, and part of the U-shaped plug pin is exposed outside the insertion hole 211. In this way, the axial fixed connection of the male pipe joint 1 and the female pipe joint 2 can also be achieved, and the part of the U-shaped plug pin exposed outside the insertion hole 211 can be used as a force application position when pulling out, which is convenient and fast to disassemble and assemble, but unlike the U-shaped plug plate 31, the limiting force of the U-shaped plug pin is a line contact force. It should be noted that such a U-shaped plug pin is common in the prior art, and therefore is not shown in the figure.

[0052] In another alternative embodiment, the plug-in part 3 can also be provided as two single plug plates or two single plug pins, which are symmetrically distributed and respectively inserted into the insertion hole 211 and simultaneously limited in the limiting groove 11, and the axial fixed connection of the male pipe joint 1 and the female pipe joint 2 can also be achieved.

[0053] As shown in Figure 3 The outer side wall of the male pipe joint 1 is provided with a first sealing groove 12 which surrounds the circumference thereof, the first sealing groove 12 is located between the end face of the male pipe joint 1 and the limiting groove 11, and the first sealing groove 12 is provided with a first sealing ring 4 which is in sealing cooperation with the body 21. The first sealing ring 4 is closer to the end face of the male pipe joint 1, and is mainly used for sealing between the male pipe joint 1 and the side wall of the female pipe joint 2 to prevent liquid leakage.

[0054] Further, the outer side wall of the male pipe joint 1 is further provided with a second sealing groove 13 which surrounds the circumference, the second sealing groove 13 and the first sealing groove 12 are respectively arranged on both sides of the limiting groove 11, and the second sealing groove 13 is provided with a second sealing ring 5. The second sealing ring 5 has a smaller diameter than the first sealing ring 4, and mainly plays a sealing and dustproof role.

[0055] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present application are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present application, and are not intended to limit the implementation modes of the present application. For those skilled in the art, various obvious changes, re-adjustments and replacements can be made without departing from the protection scope of the present application. Here, it is not necessary and also impossible to enumerate all the implementation modes. Any modification, equivalent replacement and improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application claim.
