Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fire hydrant technology, specifically to an interface for connecting a fire hydrant and a water inlet of a storage tank. Background Technology

[0002] The interface connecting the fire hydrant and the tank cut-off point is used between the fire hydrant and the oil storage tank. It is usually a specially designed fire interface to ensure that the fire water supply system can operate smoothly and efficiently.

[0003] The existing joints between pipes are prone to severe wear and damage in the later stages;

[0004] The reason for this problem is that the interface connecting the fire hydrant and the tank inlet requires a connection between the two sets of devices. Usually, a connecting pipe is installed next to the main body of the connector. The connection between the connecting pipe and the main body of the connector is usually threaded. However, since the main body of the connector and the connecting pipe are made of metal, the threaded connection directly inside the main body of the connector will cause wear during repeated disassembly and reassembly, resulting in leakage and difficulty in disassembly. At the same time, if the threaded structure inside the main body of the connector is damaged later, it will be difficult to observe and repair the extent of the damage, thus rendering the entire main body of the connector unusable. Therefore, we propose an interface for connecting the fire hydrant and the tank inlet of the connector. Utility Model Content

[0023] This application provides an interface for connecting fire hydrants and tank inlets, thus solving the problem that existing joints between pipes are prone to severe wear and damage in the later stages.

[0024] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0025] This utility model discloses a binding device for organizing archives.

[0026] According to the appendix Figure 1-4 As shown, the connector includes a connector body 1, a connecting pipe 101 is provided on the side of the connector body 1, and a fixing mechanism is provided on the outside of the connecting pipe 101. The fixing mechanism includes a fixing plate 2, which is movably inserted into the outside of the connector body 1. The fixing plate 2 is used to fix the connection between the connector body 1 and the connecting pipe 101. A sealing ring 201 is provided on the outside of the connector body 1, and the connecting pipe 101 is movably inserted into the inside of the sealing ring 201. The sealing ring 201 seals the connection between the connector body 1 and the connecting pipe 101. A snap-fit ​​block 202 is movably provided on the outside of the connector body 1 and is movably inserted into the inside of the fixing plate 2. The snap-fit ​​block 202 is used to fix the position of the fixing plate 2.

[0027] An auxiliary tube 208 is fixedly connected to the end of the connector body 1. A sealing ring 201 is fixedly connected to the outside of the auxiliary tube 208. A fixing ring 203 is fixedly connected to the outside of the connector body 1. A fixing plate 2 is movably inserted into the inside of the fixing ring 203. A fixing block 205 is fixedly connected to the outside of the connector body 1. A threaded rod 204 is rotatably connected to the outside of the fixing block 205. A movable plate 209 is threadedly connected to the outside of the threaded rod 204. A snap-fit ​​block 202 is fixedly connected to the outside of the movable plate 209.

[0028] A limiting plate 207 is fixedly connected to the outside of the connector body 1 at a position away from the fixed block 205. A movable plate 209 is movably sleeved on the outside of the limiting plate 207. A connecting block 206 is fixedly connected to the outside of the connector body 1. A fixed plate 2 is slidably connected to the outside of the connecting block 206. A snap-fit ​​block 202 is movably inserted into the inside of the connecting block 206.

[0029] By inserting one end of the connector 101 into the body of the connector 1, the connector 101 will be inserted into the sealing ring 201 and the auxiliary tube 208. The sealing ring 201 is made of rubber, which can increase the sealing effect of the connection end between the connector 101 and the body of the connector 1. The fixing plate 2 will move with the connector 101 until it is inserted into the fixing ring 203. Then, the threaded rod 204 is rotated, so that the threaded rod 204 rotates on both sides of the fixing block 205. The threaded rod 204 will drive the movable plate 209 to move during rotation. At this time, the movable plate 209 slides outside the limiting plate 207 until the movable plate 209 drives the snap-fit ​​block 202 to be inserted into the body of the fixing plate 2 and the fixing block 205. If it is necessary to remove the connector 101, simply rotate the threaded rod 204, causing the movable plate 209 to move as it rotates, thus disengaging the snap-fit ​​block 202 from the interior of the fixed plate 2. Then, the connector 101 can be removed. By setting the fixed plate 2 to connect the connector body 1 and the connector 101 from the outside, the threaded rod 204 drives the snap-fit ​​block 202 to fix the position of the fixed plate 2. This avoids the problem of the structure being difficult to observe and repair inside the connector body 1. At the same time, fixing from the outside can prevent wear and tear on the internal structure during disassembly. Additionally, the sealing ring 201 increases the sealing effect between the connector 101 and the connector body 1.

[0030] In summary, compared with existing technologies, it has the following beneficial effects:

[0031] By inserting one end of the connector 101 into the interior of the connector body 1 until the fixing plate 2 is inserted into the interior of the fixing ring 203, and then rotating the threaded rod 204 to move the movable plate 209 until the movable plate 209 moves the snap-fit ​​block 202 into the interior of the fixing plate 2 and the fixing block 205, the connector body 1 and the connector 101 are connected from the outside of the connector body 1 by setting the fixing plate 2. Then, the position of the fixing plate 2 is fixed by using the snap-fit ​​block 202, thereby avoiding the problem that the structure inside the connector body 1 is not easy to observe and repair. At the same time, fixing from the outside can avoid wear and tear on the internal structure during disassembly. Meanwhile, the sealing ring 201 is used to increase the sealing effect between the connector 101 and the connector body 1.

[0032] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model.
