[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] During installation, the elastic sealing ring is first pressed into the sealing groove, and the external pipe is guided into the groove by the guide bevel. After tightening, the conical sealing surface is interference-fitted with the pipe end face. At the same time, the elastic sealing ring undergoes radial deformation to form a secondary seal.
