Detailed Implementation

[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0019] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment discloses a flange connection structure, including a first flange 1 and a second flange 2. Both first flange 1 and second flange 2 are annular structures, and are coaxially arranged. First flange 1 includes a ring body 11 with an end face 111, and second flange 2 includes an end face 23, which fits against first end face 111. The ring body 11 and second flange 2 are connected by bolts. The ring body 11 also has a limiting groove 112, and second flange 2 has an insertion block 22 that inserts into the limiting groove 112 to facilitate bolt hole alignment.

[0020] like Figure 1As shown, flange 1 is fitted with bushing 3. Bushing 3 includes an extension 31, which extends to the right side along the right end of bushing 3. The extension 31 passes through flange 1 and extends out of flange 1 near flange 2. The extension 31 is clearance-fitted with flange 1, and bushing 3 is fastened to flange 1 with screws.

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, bushing 3 is threadedly connected to pipe body 5, and pipe body 5 is inserted into bushing 3.

[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, flange 2 is connected to bushing 4, and flange 2 and bushing 4 are rotatably connected. Specifically, in combination with Figure 2 Bushing 2 4 is composed of two semi-circular rings joined together to form a circular structure. Flange 2 2 is located on both axial sides of bushing 2 4. There are two flanges 2 2, each with a connecting platform 24. The connecting platforms 24 of the two flanges 2 2 are connected by bolts. The two flanges 2 2 are joined together to form a circular structure and press against bushing 2 4. Bushing 2 4 has a groove 41, and flange 2 2 has a raised ring 21. The raised ring 21 protrudes radially inward along the inner wall of flange 2 2 to form a ring shape. The raised ring 21 is inserted into the groove 41, and the inner wall of the raised ring 21 fits against the circumferential wall of the groove 41. The raised ring 21 can rotate axially along bushing 2 4 to adjust its circumferential position to achieve the docking of flange 1 1 and flange 2 2.

[0023] The groove 41 is provided with a second wall surface 411, and the protruding ring 21 is provided with a first wall surface 211. The second wall surface 411 and the first wall surface 211 abut against each other along the axial direction of the second flange 2. After the first flange 1 and the second flange 2 are fixed together, the bushing 2 4 is prevented from detaching to the right along the axial direction.

[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, the extension 31 is threadedly connected to the bushing 2 4. During the processing of the bushing 2 4, the thread is first formed and then cut. The bushing 2 4 is threadedly connected to the pipe body 2 6. The pipe body 2 6 is inserted into the bushing 2 4. A gap is formed between the end face of the bushing 2 4 near the flange 1 and the end face 111.

[0025] The thread direction of pipe body 5 and bushing 3 is opposite to that of pipe body 6 and bushing 4, so that after flange 1, flange 2, bushing 3 and bushing 4 are connected to each other, they are not easy to loosen in the axial direction.

[0026] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions falling within the scope of this utility model's concept are protected. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of this utility model should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
