[0023] In work, when the A pipe 1 and the B pipe 2 are butted, the butt joint block 5 of the B pipe 2 is inserted into the clamping groove 42 of the A pipe 1, the trapezoidal block 46 is compressed by the butt joint block 5 during the pushing process, the spring 43 is reset to push the trapezoidal block 46 to be clamped into the clamping groove 6 after the butt joint block 5 is completely inserted, and meanwhile, the trapezoidal strip 10 of the B elastic sealing pipe 8 is inserted into the trapezoidal groove 9 of the A elastic sealing pipe 7 to form an interference seal, so that mechanical self-locking and elastic sealing are realized to achieve double fixation, the spring 43 is self-locked and cooperates with the trapezoidal groove 9 to solve the problems of easy separation of the interface and sealing failure and improve the connection reliability and leakage prevention performance.

[0024] Further, the trapezoidal block 46 is completely retracted into the sliding hole 45 when the spring 43 is in a compressed state, and the trapezoidal block 46 protrudes out of the sliding hole 45 and is clamped into the clamping groove 6 when the spring 43 is naturally stretched;

The temperature resistance of the material and the sealing grease is coordinated, the sealing failure problem in high-temperature working conditions is solved, and the application environment range of the pipe is expanded.

[0034] Working principle: When the A pipe 1 and the B pipe 2 are connected, the abutting block 5 is inserted into the embedded groove 42 to push the trapezoidal block 46 to compress the spring 43. After being in place, the spring 43 resets to make the trapezoidal block 46 clamped into the clamping groove 6 to complete mechanical self-locking. At the same time, the trapezoidal strip 10 of the B elastic sealing pipe 8 is inserted into the trapezoidal groove 9 of the A elastic sealing pipe 7 to form an interference seal. When disassembling, the sliding block 49 is pushed to drive the limiting column 44 to retract through the connecting rod 47, so that the trapezoidal block 46 is separated from the clamping groove 6. Combined with the elastic deformation of the silicone rubber and the compensation of the high-temperature resistant sealing grease layer for thermal expansion and contraction, the three functions of anti-pulling self-locking, radial sealing and high-temperature stability are realized.
