Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipeline technology, and specifically to a quick sealing device for pipeline connections. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of pipe connections, quick-sealing devices are widely used in industrial, building, and household piping systems to achieve detachable connections between pipe fittings. Traditional pipe connection methods mainly include spiral joints and non-spiral bayonet connections. Spiral joints achieve connection through threaded tightening, offering the advantage of simple structure, but their connection stability is poor under high-frequency vibration or dynamic load environments, easily leading to thread loosening due to vibration, which can cause leakage or connection failure. Non-spiral bayonet connections achieve quick locking through the engagement of the bayonet flange and bayonet groove, offering the advantage of convenient installation compared to spiral joints. However, conventional non-spiral bayonet connections also have problems under vibration environments. Due to the simple bayonet structure and lack of effective anti-loosening mechanisms, relative movement between the bayonet groove and flange can lead to loosening, affecting sealing performance and connection reliability. These problems limit the application of existing connection devices in scenarios with frequent vibration or high reliability requirements. Utility Model Content

[0003] One objective of this invention is to ensure high stability of pipe connections under vibration environments through a concentric double-bayonet structure and a locking mechanism with opposite rotation directions. The device employs a sealed bearing connecting the bayonet seat, effectively preventing loosening and improving sealing performance. Therefore, this invention provides a quick-sealing device for pipe connections.

[0004] Specifically, this utility model provides a quick sealing device for pipe connections, used to detachably connect a first pipe fitting and a second pipe fitting, comprising:

[0005] The first bayonet seat is fixed to the end of the first pipe fitting and has a first circular opening and multiple radially extending first bayonet flanges;

[0006] The second bayonet seat is concentrically disposed outside the first bayonet seat, so that the first bayonet seat and the second bayonet seat can rotate relative to each other. The second bayonet seat has a second circular opening and multiple radially extending second bayonet flanges.

[0007] The pipe fitting bayonet portion is provided at the end of the second pipe fitting and has a first bayonet groove and a second bayonet groove that respectively match the first bayonet seat and the second bayonet seat. The first bayonet groove cooperates with the first bayonet flange to rotate and lock in a first rotation direction, and the second bayonet groove cooperates with the second bayonet flange to rotate and lock in a second rotation direction opposite to the first rotation direction.

[0008] Furthermore, there are three of each of the first and second bayonet flanges, and they are evenly distributed along the circumference of their respective bayonet seats.

[0009] Furthermore, the second bayonet seat is connected to the first bayonet seat via a sealed bearing.

[0010] Furthermore, the sealed bearing is a ball bearing, with the outer ring of the ball bearing fixedly connected to the second bayonet seat and the inner ring fixedly connected to the first bayonet seat.

[0011] Furthermore, a sealing ring is provided between the first bayonet seat and the pipe fitting bayonet portion, and / or a sealing ring is provided between the second bayonet seat and the pipe fitting bayonet portion.

[0012] Furthermore, it also includes:

[0013] A first locking pin is provided on the first bayonet seat and a second locking pin is provided on the second bayonet seat. When the first bayonet groove rotates to a predetermined position, the first locking pin is inserted into the first locking groove provided on the pipe fitting bayonet portion. When the second bayonet groove rotates to a predetermined position, the second locking pin is inserted into the second locking groove provided on the pipe fitting bayonet portion, so as to prevent the second pipe fitting from rotating relative to the first pipe fitting.

[0014] Furthermore, both the first locking pin and the second locking pin are connected to springs. The springs are disposed in the first bayonet seat and the second bayonet seat, and are used to support the first locking pin and the second locking pin in a static state. The first locking pin and the second locking pin are also connected to a release button, which can move along the axial direction of the spring to drive the first locking pin and the second locking pin to move along the axial direction of the spring.

[0015] Furthermore, the inner diameter of the first bayonet seat is smaller than the inner diameter of the second bayonet seat.

[0016] Furthermore, it also includes:

[0017] The first spring is provided on the first bayonet seat, and the first spring is provided on the side of the first bayonet flange along the axial direction of the first bayonet seat. The clockwise starting end of the first spring has a bevel structure so that it can slide into the corresponding locking groove when the pipe fitting is inserted into the bayonet.

[0018] The second spring is provided on the second bayonet seat. The second spring is located on the side of the second bayonet flange along the axial direction of the second bayonet seat. The counterclockwise starting end of the second spring has a beveled structure so that it can slide into the corresponding locking groove when the pipe fitting is inserted into the bayonet.

[0019] Furthermore, the outer surface of the second bayonet seat and the outer surface of the pipe fitting bayonet portion are provided with anti-slip texture.

[0020] In this invention, the first and second bayonet seats are arranged concentrically, and the first and second bayonet grooves rotate in opposite directions, which effectively counteract the relative movement caused by vibration, greatly improving the stability and reliability of the pipe connection in a vibration environment, and overcoming the defects of traditional spiral interfaces and non-spiral bayonet joints that are prone to loosening.

[0021] In this invention, a sealed bearing is used to connect the first bayonet seat and the second bayonet seat to ensure smooth relative rotation and sealing. Combined with the design of the locking mechanism, the sealing performance and durability of the connection device are further enhanced, making it suitable for pipeline connection scenarios with high reliability requirements.
