Existing high-pressure pipeline interface devices have poor sealing performance. Local elastic deformation leads to uneven sealing structure, which cannot adapt to pipeline vibration conditions. Furthermore, after long-term use, wear of the locking structure components creates gaps that affect the sealing effect.
The system employs a combination structure of inner and outer sealing rings with different conical angles. This, combined with a pressure-reducing groove, achieves pressure compensation and adapts to pipeline vibration. The auxiliary locking device, through the design of an insertion rod, a locking block, and a spring, automatically compensates for wear of the locking structure components, ensuring a tight seal.
It achieves a continuous sealing effect when the pressure increases and automatically compensates for wear of the locking structure to maintain the sealing of the docking device and adapt to pipeline vibration conditions.

It includes a first connecting pipe, a second connecting pipe at the connecting end of the first connecting pipe, and auxiliary sealing components installed on both the first and second connecting pipes. The auxiliary sealing component includes an inner sealing ring, and both the connecting ends of the first and second connecting pipes are... An inner sealing ring is provided, and an outer sealing ring is sleeved on the outer side of the inner sealing ring.

[0021] The technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0022] Therefore, this utility model provides an interface connection device for high-pressure pipelines. (See also...) Figures 1-2 As shown, it includes a first connecting pipe 1, a second connecting pipe 2 at the connecting end of the first connecting pipe 1, an auxiliary sealing assembly installed on the first connecting pipe 1 and the second connecting pipe 2, the auxiliary sealing assembly including an inner sealing ring 3, an inner sealing ring 3 at the connecting end of the first connecting pipe 1 and the second connecting pipe 2, an outer sealing ring 4 sleeved on the outer side of the inner sealing ring 3, the outer sealing ring 4 completely covering the outer circumference of the inner sealing ring 3, the inner sealing ring 3 and the outer sealing ring 4 coaxially fitted to form a sealing body, the axial cross sections of the inner sealing ring 3 and the outer sealing ring 4 have double slopes, the cone angle of the inner sealing ring 3 is greater than the cone angle of the outer sealing ring 4, a pressure-reducing groove 5 is opened at the intersection of the cone surfaces of the inner sealing ring 3 and the outer sealing ring 4, a first connecting flange 6 is installed near the connecting port of the first connecting pipe 1, a second connecting flange 7 is installed near the connecting port of the second connecting pipe 2, and an auxiliary locking device is installed on the first connecting flange 6 and the second connecting flange 7. The inner sealing ring 3 is a hard metal seal, and the outer sealing ring 4 is a soft elastomer seal. The ring body of the outer sealing ring 4 can cover the connection gap between the inner sealing ring 3 and the corresponding pipe body. The ring body of the inner sealing ring 3 protrudes from the ring body of the outer sealing ring 4. When under pressure, the inner sealing ring 3 bears the pressure first, thus preventing the outer sealing ring 4 from aging prematurely.
[0023] During operation, through the structural design of the auxiliary sealing assembly, when the first connecting pipe 1 and the second connecting pipe 2 are connected to each other, an inner sealing ring 3 is set at the port of the first connecting pipe 1 and the second connecting pipe 2. Then, an outer sealing ring 4 is sleeved on the outside of the inner sealing ring 3. When the first connecting pipe 1 is close to the second connecting pipe 2, the inner sealing rings 3 first come into contact with each other. When the pipeline vibrates, the inner sealing rings 3 are compressed and the outer sealing rings 4 come into contact with each other. As the pressure continues to increase, the conical surface between the inner sealing ring 3 and the outer sealing ring 4 achieves pressure compensation. With the cooperation of the pressure-reducing groove 5, it can adapt to the pipeline vibration condition and ensure the sealing performance when connecting the pipeline.
[0024] Further, see Figures 1-4As shown, the auxiliary locking device includes a retaining ring 8. The retaining ring 8 is fixedly attached to the outer surface of the first connecting flange 6 away from the second connecting flange 7. Retaining seats 9 are symmetrically fixed above and below the retaining ring 8. Each retaining seat 9 has a retaining cavity 10 inside. Each retaining cavity 10 has an insertion hole 11 on its inner wall surface near the first connecting flange 6, and the insertion hole 11 penetrates the body of the first connecting flange 6. Insertion rods 12 are symmetrically fixed above and below the structural surface of the second connecting flange 7 near the first connecting flange 6. Each insertion rod 12 can pass through the insertion hole 11 and be inserted into the interior of the retaining cavity 10. When the first connecting pipe 1 and the second connecting pipe 2 are connected, the first connecting flange 6 and the second connecting flange 7 are brought close together. The insertion rod 12 on the second connecting flange 7 passes through the insertion hole 11 on the first connecting flange 6 and is inserted into the retaining cavity 10, achieving an auxiliary positioning effect and facilitating the installation of bolts and other connecting structures.
[0025] Each fixed base 9 has a push rod 14 installed on one side via a sliding hole. One end of the push rod 14 is inserted into the interior of the fixed cavity 10 and connected to a spring 15. The end of the spring 15 is connected to a locking block 16. A limiting slide rod is fixed to the structural surface of the locking block 16 near the push rod 14, and the limiting slide rod is inserted into the limiting hole of the push rod 14. A pre-tightening groove 13 is opened on the side of the insertion rod 12 near the locking block 16. After the insertion rod 12 enters the fixed cavity 10 to the maximum extent, the locking block 16 can be locked inside the pre-tightening groove 13. The push rod 14 can move along the sliding hole on the fixed base 9, causing the working position of the locking block 16 to change. When the spring 15 is compressed, the distance between the locking block 16 and the push rod 14 shortens along the axis.
[0026] The other end of the push rod 14 extends outward and is fixedly connected to a push plate 17. A screw 18 is rotatably mounted at the middle of the push plate 17. One end of the screw 18 is rotatably connected to the fixing ring 8, and the other end of the screw 18 extends through the push plate 17 and is fitted with a rotary knob 19. When a rotational force is applied to the rotary knob 19, the screw 18 rotates, and the push plate 17 pushes the push rod 14 to move towards the fixed seat 9, thereby adjusting the working position of the locking block 16.
[0027] When the spring 15 is not in operation, it does not deform. When the push plate 17 is furthest from the fixed seat 9, the working position of the locking block 16 intersects with the movement trajectory of the insertion rod 12. During the process of inserting the rod 12 into the fixed cavity 10 through the insertion hole 11, the rod 12 will first contact the vertical inclined surface of the locking block 16. As the rod 12 continues to move, the locking block 16 is pushed in the direction of the push rod 14, causing the locking block 16 to move a certain distance towards the push rod 14. The spring 15 will be compressed and generate a reaction force, causing the locking block 16 to always press tightly against the rod 12. After the rod 12 has entered the fixed cavity 10 to its maximum extent, the locking block 16 will be locked in the opening of the pre-tightening slot 13 under the reaction force of the spring 15. Subsequently, the screw 18 can be rotated by turning the knob 19 to apply a rotational force, causing the push plate 17 to push the push rod 14 to move towards the locking block 16. The spring 15 is further compressed and the reaction force increases, causing the locking block 16 to be tightly pressed against the inside of the pre-tightening slot 13. When wear occurs between the locking structure components, an automatic compensation effect can be achieved, ensuring the sealing of the docking device.
[0028] A protective shell 20 is installed on the fixed base 9. The shell of the protective shell 20 is divided into three parts, and their cross-sectional radii increase sequentially. After the first connecting flange 6 and the second connecting flange 7 are installed, the shell of the protective shell 20 can completely cover the second connecting flange 7. A force can be applied to the shell with the largest cross-sectional radius in the protective shell 20, so that the protective shell 20 can surround and cover the outside of the first connecting flange 6 and the second connecting flange 7, thus achieving the effect of protecting the docking device during operation.
[0029] During operation, thanks to the structural design of the auxiliary locking device, when the first connecting pipe 1 and the second connecting pipe 2 are connected via the first connecting flange 6 and the second connecting flange 7, the insertion rod 12 on the second connecting flange 7 enters the fixed cavity 10 through the insertion hole 11. During this process, the insertion rod 12 first contacts the vertical inclined surface of the locking block 16. As the insertion rod 12 continues to move, the locking block 16 receives a pushing force towards the push rod 14, causing the locking block 16 to move a certain distance towards the push rod 14. The spring 15 is compressed and generates a reaction force, causing the locking block 16 to move further towards the push rod 14. Block 16 is always pressed tightly against the insertion rod 12. After the insertion rod 12 enters the fixed cavity 10 to the maximum extent, the locking block 16 will be locked in the opening of the pre-tightening slot 13 under the reaction force of the spring 15. Subsequently, the screw 18 can be rotated by turning the knob 19 to apply a rotational force, so that the push plate 17 pushes the push rod 14 to the position of the locking block 16. The spring 15 is further compressed and the reaction force increases, so that the locking block 16 is tightly attached to the inside of the pre-tightening slot 13. When wear occurs between the locking structure components, it can achieve the effect of automatic compensation and ensure the sealing of the docking device.
[0030] In summary, this effectively solves the problems of poor sealing performance, uneven sealing surface caused by local elastic deformation, inability to adapt to pipeline vibration conditions, and wear between locking components due to prolonged operation of the docking device, which can affect the sealing performance.
