AI Technical Summary
In existing technologies, the locking parts of pipe connection structures are prone to wear during repeated insertion and removal, resulting in reduced connection stability and sealing. The structural strength of the locking teeth is insufficient, making it impossible to effectively connect metal pipe fittings.
The device employs a combination structure of a connector and a nut. The connector has a crimping ring at the front end, and the nut has an inclined pressure surface on its inner wall. By rotating and screwing the connector inward, the inclined pressure surface presses against the crimping ring, achieving controllable micro-deformation, thus securing the pipe connection. The inclined surface and sealing ring also enhance the sealing performance.
It improves the stability and sealing of pipe connections, facilitates operation, avoids wear on locking parts, and enhances the clamping force of metal pipe fittings.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipe joint technology, and in particular to a pipe connection structure. Background Technology
[0002] For example, Chinese utility model patent CN220891403U discloses a simple quick-connect pipe fitting. The quick-connect fitting includes a connecting pipe with sealing grooves on both sides of its inner wall and clearance grooves near the pipe openings at both ends. A guide plate is provided at the end of each clearance groove adjacent to the sealing groove. Two sealing rings are fitted into the two sealing grooves respectively. Two locking members are inserted into the pipe openings at both ends. Each locking member has an elastic arm at the inserted end, a locking tooth in the middle, and a guide surface at the end. Connection is achieved simply by inserting and removing the locking members for quick pipe connection.
[0003] The problem with the existing technology is that the locking parts are prone to wear during repeated insertion and removal of pipes, which leads to a decrease in the stability and sealing of the connection. In addition, the structural strength of the clamping teeth is low, resulting in insufficient clamping force for the connection of metal pipe fittings.
[0004] Therefore, existing technologies need to be improved. Utility Model Content
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a pipe connection structure that is stable and easy to install.
[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the problem is: a pipe connection structure, including a joint and a nut;
[0007] The connector has a crimping ring at its front end. The outer wall of the crimping ring is a conical surface with a smaller front end and a larger rear end. The inner wall of the nut has an inclined pressure surface. The connector and the nut are screwed together. During the process of rotating and tightening the connector and the nut, the inclined pressure surface presses inward against the outer wall of the crimping ring.
[0008] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the crimping ring has a convex surface in the middle and anti-slip texture on the inner wall of the crimping ring, and the convex surface and the inclined crimping surface are interference fit.
[0009] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the rear end of the crimping ring is provided with a threaded part, the surface of the threaded part is provided with an external thread, and the inner wall of the nut is provided with an internal thread that matches the external thread.
[0010] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a first inclined surface is provided between the threaded part and the crimping ring, and a second inclined surface is provided between the internal thread and the inclined pressure surface, with the first inclined surface abutting against the second inclined surface.
[0011] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a first annular groove is provided on the inner wall of the screw connection, and a first sealing ring is provided in the first annular groove.
[0012] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a second annular groove is provided on the inner wall of the front end of the nut, and a second sealing ring is provided in the second annular groove.
[0013] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the joint is through in the middle, and both ends of the joint are provided with insertion grooves, with a positioning retaining ring between the two insertion grooves.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: the distance between the joint and the nut gradually tightens as they are rotated and screwed together, and the inclined pressure surface presses the crimping ring inward and downward, causing the crimping ring to produce controllable micro-deformation, tightly adhering to the pipe surface, resulting in a stable connection and convenient operation.

[0025] Reference Figures 1 to 4 A pipe connection structure, including a connector 1 and a nut 2;
[0026] Preferably, the connector 1 has a crimping ring 11 at its front end. The outer wall of the crimping ring 11 is a conical surface with a smaller front end and a larger rear end. The inner wall of the nut 2 has an inclined pressure surface 21. The connector 1 and the nut 2 are screwed together. During the screwing process of the connector 1 and the nut 2, the inclined pressure surface 21 presses inward against the outer wall of the crimping ring 11. The outer wall of the crimping ring 11 is gradually squeezed inward by the inclined pressure surface 21, causing the crimping ring 11 to undergo slight deformation, thereby fastening the connected pipe and making the pipe less likely to fall off. The structure is simple and stable, and easy to assemble and disassemble.
[0027] Preferably, the crimping ring 11 has a convex surface 111 in the middle, and the inner wall of the crimping ring 11 has anti-slip texture 112. The convex surface 111 and the inclined crimping surface 21 are interference-fitted. This further enhances the tightness and sealing of the connection between the pipe and the joint 1.

When the connector 1 and the nut 2 are fully screwed together, the first inclined surface 12 and the second inclined surface 22 fit tightly together, enhancing the sealing performance. At the same time, the first inclined surface 12 and the second inclined surface 22 are used for positioning during the connection process of the connector 1 and the nut 2, facilitating installation by workers.
[0030] Preferably, a first annular groove 132 is provided on the inner wall of the screw connection 13, and a first sealing ring 3 is provided in the first annular groove 132.
[0031] Preferably, a second annular groove 24 is provided on the inner wall of the front end of the nut 2, and a second sealing ring 4 is provided in the second annular groove 24. This enhances the sealing performance of the pipeline connection and prevents leakage.
[0032] The connector 1 is a through-hole connector, with insertion slots 14 at both ends and a positioning retaining ring 15 between the two insertion slots 14. The positioning retaining ring 15 is used for positioning the two pipe sections during installation, making it convenient for workers to install.
