[0039] The embodiments of the present application will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the present application, but cannot be used to limit the scope of the present application.

[0040] Example one: as shown in the accompanying drawings Figure 1 to the accompanying drawings Figure 5 :

[0041] The utility model provides a kind of chemical pipeline flange connection safety reinforcing device, comprising: first connecting pipe 1 and limiting reinforcing structure 4;

[0042] One end of first connecting pipe 1 is equipped with second connecting pipe 2, and the outer side of the opposite end of first connecting pipe 1 and second connecting pipe 2 is equipped with first flange plate 101 and second flange plate 201 respectively, first flange plate 101 and second flange plate 201 are fixedly connected by screw nut 3, while first flange plate 101 and second flange plate 201 are equipped with limiting reinforcing structure 4, limiting reinforcing structure 4 includes the following components:

[0043] Connecting outer disc 401: fixedly connected to the outer side of first flange plate 101, connecting outer disc 401 and first flange plate 101 are fixedly connected with fixed support cylinder 4011, and movable sliding hole 4012 is formed in fixed support cylinder 4011;

[0044] Connecting sliding rod 402: slidingly installed in movable sliding hole 4012, one end of connecting sliding rod 402 is fixedly connected with connecting handle 4021, and the other end of connecting sliding rod 402 is fixedly connected with U-shaped clamping plate 4025;

[0045] Fixed convex disc 403: fixedly connected to the outer side of second flange plate 201, through slot 4031 is formed at the outer side of four sides of fixed convex disc 403, lock position clamping groove 4032 is formed at the bottom of through slot 4031, and U-shaped clamping plate 4025 is clamped in lock position clamping groove 4032.

[0046] Connecting sliding rod 402 is fixedly connected with fixed convex ring 4022 on the outer side, extrusion groove 4023 is formed in the inside of fixed support cylinder 4011, and the outer side wall of fixed convex ring 4022 is fitted with the inner side wall of extrusion groove 4023.

[0047] Spring 4024 is arranged in the inside of extrusion groove 4023.

[0048] The sealing gasket 501 is placed between the first flange plate 101 and the second flange plate 201, and then the connecting handle 4021 is rotated to rotate the U-shaped clamping plate 4025 by 180 degrees. At this time, the connecting handle 4021 is pushed to make the U-shaped clamping plate 4025 pass through the through slot 4031, and then it is rotated to reset. At this time, the connecting handle 4021 is loosened. When the connecting handle 4021 is pushed, the fixed convex ring 4022 drives the spring 4024 in the extrusion slot 4023 to be extruded, so that the spring 4024 is elastically deformed. When the extrusion is lost, the spring 4024 releases the elasticity at this time, thereby pushing the fixed convex ring 4022 to move. The fixed convex ring 4022 drives the U-shaped clamping plate 4025 to reset and clamp into the locking clamping slot 4032 through the connecting slide rod 402, and then the screw nut 3 is tightened, thereby completing the connection of the first flange plate 101 and the second flange plate 201. When the screw nut 3 is loosened, the first flange plate 101 and the second flange plate 201 can still be tightly fitted under the cooperation of the U-shaped clamping plate 4025 and the locking clamping slot 4032. When disassembling, the connecting handle 4021 is pushed to make the U-shaped clamping plate 4025 disengage from the locking clamping slot 4032, and then it is rotated to 180 degrees. The U-shaped clamping plate 4025 enters the through slot 4031 under the action of the spring 4024, and then the screw nut 3 is screwed to complete the disassembly of the two.

[0049] In example two, on the basis of example one, as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 The first connecting pipe 1 and the second connecting pipe 2 are provided with an alarm assembly 5 at the contact end. The alarm assembly 5 includes a sealing gasket 501, an annular ring 502, and an exhaust pipe 5021. The first connecting pipe 1 and the second connecting pipe 2 are provided with the sealing gasket 501 at the contact end. The outer side of the sealing gasket 501 is provided with the annular ring 502. The annular ring 502 is fixedly connected with the exhaust pipe 5021.

[0050] The top of the exhaust pipe 5021 is fixedly connected with a fixed carrier frame 503. The inside of the fixed carrier frame 503 is provided with an inner cavity 5031. The top of the inner cavity 5031 is fixedly installed with an alarm 5042.

[0051] The inner cavity 5031 is provided with a floating plate 504. The top of the floating plate 504 is fixedly connected with a contact rod 5041. The contact rod 5041 is arranged directly below the alarm 5042.

[0052] The annular ring 502 is sealed outside the sealing gasket 501, when the chemical gaseous medium leaks out through the sealing gasket 501, at this time, the gaseous medium enters the annular ring 502, so that the internal pressure of the annular ring 502 is increased, with the continuous accumulation of the leakage medium, the internal pressure of the annular ring is changed significantly, and then enters the inner cavity 5031 through the exhaust pipe 5021, and finally the floating plate 504 is dragged up under the action of pressure rise, so that the floating plate 504 drives the contact rod 5041 to touch the alarm 5042, so that the alarm 5042 sends a signal to the control end, and then the specific leakage flange point can be accurately locked.

[0053] The specific use mode and effect of the embodiment are as follows:

[0054] In the utility model, the sealing gasket 501 is placed between the first flange plate 101 and the second flange plate 201, then the U-shaped clamping plate 4025 is rotated 180 degrees by rotating the connecting handle 4021, at this time, the connecting handle 4021 is pushed to make the U-shaped clamping plate 4025 pass through the through slot 4031, then it is rotated to reset, at this time, the connecting handle 4021 is loosened, the fixed convex ring 4022 drives the spring 4024 in the extrusion slot 4023 to be extruded when the connecting slide rod 402 is driven to push the connecting handle 4021, so that the spring 4024 is elastically deformed, when the extrusion is lost, the spring 4024 releases the elasticity at this time, so as to push the fixed convex ring 4022 to move, the fixed convex ring 4022 drives the U-shaped clamping plate 4025 to reset and clamp into the locking clamping groove 4032 through the connecting slide rod 402, then the screw nut 3 is fastened again, so that the connection of the first flange plate 101 and the second flange plate 201 is completed, when the screw nut 3 is loosened, the flange plate is provided with all-round reinforcing effect by the plurality of uniformly distributed reinforcing members, so that the two groups of flanges are still closely attached when the bolt is loosened, the anti-loosening ability of the connection part is improved, and the dynamic stability and sealing reliability of the flange connection are significantly enhanced.
