DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the utility model clearer, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the utility model will be described clearly and completely below in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all the embodiments. The components of the embodiments of the utility model described and shown in the drawings here can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0030] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the utility model provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed utility model, but only represents selected embodiments of the utility model. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the utility model. EMBODIMENT

[0031] The following refers to Figures 1-7As shown, further illustrated in combination with the specific embodiments, the embodiment provides a sealing connecting device for connecting a first pipeline 200 and a second pipeline 300, which comprises a connecting pipe 10, a convex ring 20, a connecting screw sleeve assembly 30 and a fixing assembly 40. The connecting pipe 10 is internally provided with a first limiting groove 11 and a second limiting groove 12 formed symmetrically. The first limiting groove 11 and the second limiting groove 12 are respectively located on both sides of the middle part of the connecting pipe 10, and are respectively used for tightly abutting the end faces of the first pipeline 200 and the second pipeline 300. The convex ring 20 is sleeved on the middle part of the connecting pipe 10. In the embodiment, the convex ring 20 is integrally formed with the connecting sleeve 10.

[0032] The connecting screw sleeve assembly 30 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the connecting pipe 10 and the convex ring 20, and comprises a first screw sleeve 31 and a second screw sleeve 32 threadedly matched at the ends. The two ends of the first screw sleeve 31 and the second screw sleeve 32 are respectively a threaded end and a non-threaded end. The threaded ends of the first screw sleeve 31 and the second screw sleeve 32 are screwed onto the outer periphery of the convex ring 20, so as to tightly abut the convex ring 20.

[0033] The fixing assembly 40 is sleeved on the outside of the first screw sleeve 31 and the second screw sleeve 32, and is used for fixedly connecting the first screw sleeve 31 and the second screw sleeve 32 to the connecting pipe 10, so as to fix the first screw sleeve 31 and the second screw sleeve 32.

[0034] During connection, the first pipeline 200 and the second pipeline 300 are respectively inserted into the inside of the connecting pipe 10 from both ends of the connecting pipe 10. The end faces of the first pipeline 200 and the second pipeline 300 are respectively tightly fitted with the first limiting groove 11 and the second limiting groove 12, forming an initial sealing interface. The first screw sleeve 31 and the second screw sleeve 32 are screwed to both sides of the convex ring 20, so as to tightly press the end faces of the first pipeline 200 and the second pipeline 300 into the first limiting groove 11 and the second limiting groove 12. Finally, the first screw sleeve 31 and the second screw sleeve 32 are fixed on the connecting pipe 10 by the fixing assembly 40, forming multiple constraints, preventing the threaded ends of the first screw sleeve 31 and the second screw sleeve 32 from loosening in a vibrating environment, so as to improve the dynamic sealing effect of the first pipeline 200 and the second pipeline 300, and reduce the risk of pipeline leakage.

[0035] Further, the two sides of the convex ring 20 are respectively provided with a first recess 21 and a second recess 22. The first recess 21 and the second recess 22 are arranged in a staggered manner. The threaded ends of the first screw sleeve 31 and the second screw sleeve 32 are respectively provided with a first convex part 311 and a second convex part 321 matched with the first recess 21 and the second recess 22.

[0036] When the first and second threaded sleeves 31 and 32 are screwed on the connecting pipe 10 and screwed with each other, the first and second protrusions 311 and 321 on the threaded ends of the first and second threaded sleeves 31 and 32 are respectively embedded in the first and second recesses 21 and 22 on both sides of the protruding ring 20. During installation, the first protrusion 311 and the first recess 21, the second protrusion 321 and the second recess 22 cooperate to limit the rotational freedom of the first and second threaded sleeves 31 and 32 relative to the protruding ring 20, preventing the first and second pipes 200 and 300 from loosening due to vibration or pressure fluctuations in the conveying medium. The first and second recesses 21 and 22 and the first and second protrusions 311 and 321 are distributed in a staggered manner and form multi-point constraints in the circumferential direction, making the stress distribution of the first and second threaded sleeves 31 and 32 more uniform and avoiding unilateral stress concentration that can cause structural deformation.

[0037] Further, the first and second recesses 21 and 22 are each provided with an inclined guide surface (not shown in the figure). Correspondingly, the first and second protrusions 311 and 321 are each provided with a bevel surface that cooperates with the guide surface.

[0038] When the threaded ends of the first and second threaded sleeves 31 and 32 approach the protruding ring 20, the first and second protrusions 311 and 321 first come into contact with the guide surfaces of the first and second recesses 21 and 22. With the screwing action, the guide surfaces guide the first and second protrusions 311 and 321 to gradually move along the bevel surfaces to the bottoms of the first and second recesses 21 and 22, forcing the first and second threaded sleeves 31 and 32 to displace axially, thereby enhancing the abutting force of the threaded ends of the first and second threaded sleeves 31 and 32 against the first and second protruding rings 20.

[0039] Further, the protruding ring 20 is provided with first and second protruding bosses 23 and 24 on both sides, with the first protruding boss 23 located above the first recess 21 and the second protruding boss 24 located below the second recess 22. The threaded ends of the first and second threaded sleeves 31 and 32 are respectively provided with first and second annular grooves 312 and 322 that are adapted to the first and second protruding bosses 23 and 24.

[0040] When the first and second threaded sleeves 31 and 32 are screwed, the first and second annular grooves 312 and 322 on the threaded ends of the first and second threaded sleeves 31 and 32 respectively abut against the first and second protruding bosses 23 and 24 on both sides of the protruding ring 20, cooperating with the first and second protruding rings 20 and the first and second recesses 21 and 22 to achieve bidirectional positioning of the first and second threaded sleeves 31 and 32, further improving the fitting precision of the first and second threaded sleeves 31 and 32 with the protruding ring 20, and preventing the first and second threaded sleeves 31 and 32 from axially shifting due to pipe vibration or pressure impact.

[0041] Further, the outer diameter of the connecting pipe 10 is linearly and gradually expanded from both ends to the middle.

[0042] The outer diameter of the two ends of the connecting pipe 10 is small, which facilitates the alignment and positioning of the ends of the first pipe 200 and the second pipe 300 during installation. The wall thickness of the connecting pipe 10 gradually increases as the outer diameter linearly expands towards the middle, forming a symmetrical tapered transition section. When subjected to internal mud pressure, the gradually expanding structure guides the stress to be evenly distributed along the pipe wall through geometric continuity, avoiding structural deformation caused by local stress concentration.

[0043] Further, the two ends of the connecting pipe 10 are provided with deformation wing rings 13, which are inclined from the ends of the connecting pipe 10 to the middle.

[0044] In this embodiment, the two ends of the connecting pipe 10 are provided with four deformation wing rings 13. The deformation wing rings 13 are initially inclined from the ends of the connecting pipe 10 to the middle, and when the first screw sleeve 31 and the second screw sleeve 32 are sleeved on the connecting pipe 10 and tightened, the deformation wing rings 13 are flattened, so that the first screw sleeve 31 and the second screw sleeve 32 are in close abutment with the connecting pipe 10.

[0045] Further, the non-threaded ends of the first screw sleeve 31 and the second screw sleeve 32 are provided with inner flanges 33, and the two inner flanges 33 respectively abut against the side walls of the first pipe 200 and the second pipe 300.

[0046] The inner flange 33 refers to an annular flange structure extending inwardly from the non-threaded end of the first screw sleeve 31 and the second screw sleeve 32. During installation, the annular contact surface of the inner flange 33 forms an annular limiting structure with the outer wall of the pipe, limiting the non-threaded end of the first screw sleeve 31 and the second screw sleeve 32, thereby limiting the axial displacement of the first screw sleeve 31 and the second screw sleeve 32, and improving the stability of the connection between the first screw sleeve 31 and the second screw sleeve 32 and the connecting pipe 10.

[0047] Further, the fixing assembly 40 includes a first pipe clamp 41, a second pipe clamp 42, and a third pipe clamp 43. The first pipe clamp 41 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the non-threaded end of the first screw sleeve 31, the second pipe clamp 42 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the non-threaded end of the second screw sleeve 32, and the third pipe clamp 43 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the threaded end of the first screw sleeve 31 and the second screw sleeve 32.

[0048] When the first screw sleeve 31 and the second screw sleeve 32 are tightened, the first pipe clamp 41 and the second pipe clamp 42 are locked on the non-threaded ends of the first screw sleeve 31 and the second screw sleeve 32 respectively, thereby restricting the relative displacement of the first screw sleeve 31 and the second screw sleeve 32 and the connecting pipe 10. The third pipe clamp 43 wraps the threaded joint of the first screw sleeve 31 and the second screw sleeve 32 (the threaded end of the first screw sleeve 31 and the second screw sleeve 32 has been tightened into a threaded joint), thereby preventing the loosening of the threaded pair due to vibration.

[0049] Specifically, the first pipe clamp 41, the second pipe clamp 42 and the third pipe clamp 43 each include two symmetrical semicircular clamp bodies 401 which are detachably connected through a bolt assembly 402.

[0050] The two semicircular clamp bodies 401 are respectively placed at the non-threaded ends of the first and second threaded sleeves 31 and 32 and the outer periphery of the threaded ends of the first and second threaded sleeves 31 and 32, and the semicircular clamp bodies 401 are closed and locked through the bolt assembly 402 to form a circumferential constraint on the first and second threaded sleeves 31 and 32. The split pipe clamp structure can adapt to the installation requirements of different pipe diameters, and the pre-tightening force of the bolt assembly 402 can prevent the pipe clamp from loosening and falling off when the pipeline vibrates or the pressure fluctuates.

[0051] In addition, to avoid damage to the first and second threaded sleeves 31 and 32, the inner side of the semicircular clamp body 401 of the first, second and third pipe clamps 41, 42 and 43 is provided with an elastic abutting pad 403.

[0052] Further, the middle part of the convex ring 20, the groove walls of the first and second limiting grooves 11 and 12 are each provided with a reinforcing rib 50. In the embodiment, the reinforcing rib 50 on the middle part of the convex ring 20 is integrally formed with the reinforcing ribs 50 between the groove walls of the first and second limiting grooves 11 and 12. Through the arrangement of the reinforcing rib 50, the structural strength between the convex ring 20, the first and second limiting grooves 11 and 12 can be improved, and the convex ring 20, the first and second limiting grooves 11 and 12 are prevented from being deformed due to extrusion, and the sealing effect is further improved.

[0053] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, the present application can have various modifications and changes. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
