Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of automotive sealing cover technology, specifically relating to a highly adaptable sealing cover. Background Technology
[0002] The windshield washer fluid reservoir cap, also known as the windshield washer fluid filler cap, is a component used to seal the windshield washer fluid reservoir in a car. Located in the engine compartment, it is usually clearly marked for easy access by the owner to add windshield washer fluid. This ensures that the fluid does not leak from the reservoir during storage and use, preventing waste and potential corrosion or damage to other components in the engine compartment.
[0003] Most automotive windshield washer fluid reservoir caps on the market use a single-fit structure at the bottom where they connect to the piping. This traditional design can only meet the connection requirements of specific windshield washer fluid reservoir models and piping, making it difficult to adapt to diverse usage scenarios. Due to the wide variety of car brands and models, windshield washer fluid reservoirs produced by different manufacturers vary significantly in size, piping interface shape and size, and connection methods. A single-fit seal cannot achieve effective connection when the windshield washer fluid reservoir is replaced, or when compatibility with different brands of piping fittings is required. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a highly adaptable sealing cap, which aims to solve the problem that, in the use of the above-mentioned automotive windshield washer fluid tank sealing caps, due to the rich variety of car brands and models, windshield washer fluid tanks produced by different manufacturers have significant differences in size specifications, pipe interface shape and size, connection methods, etc.; and the sealing caps with a single adaptable structure cannot achieve effective connection once the vehicle replaces the windshield washer fluid tank or needs to be compatible with pipe fittings from different brands.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a highly adaptable sealing cap, comprising a pipe clamp and a mating plate installed on the surface of the pipe clamp, wherein a rotating plate is connected to the outer side wall of the mating plate, a rotating block is movably connected to the surface of the rotating plate, and a cover plate is connected to the other end of the rotating block;
[0006] A positioning spring is connected to the inner opening of the pipe clamp. A linkage plate is connected to the other end of the positioning spring. A linkage rod is connected to the other side of the linkage plate. A positioning rubber ring is connected to the other end of the linkage rod. A protruding strip is installed on the inner wall of the positioning rubber ring.
[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model of a highly adaptable sealing cap, the positioning springs are evenly distributed in a ring inside the pipe clamp, and the positioning springs and the linkage plate form an elastic telescopic structure.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model of a highly adaptable sealing cap, the linkage rod passes through the pipe clamp and extends to the outside of the pipe clamp, and the linkage rod is made of PVC material.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the positioning rubber ring and the raised strip are both made of silicone, and the positioning rubber ring and the raised strip are an integral structure.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the inner wall of the cover plate is equipped with a rubber sealing ring, and the cover plate is sealed to the mating plate through the sealing ring.
[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model of a highly adaptable sealing cover, one end of the outer wall of the cover plate is connected to a lever plate, the inner wall of the cover plate is connected to a PVC buckle, and the surface of the mating plate near the buckle is provided with a groove.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] This utility model involves fitting the bottom end of a pipe clamp onto the connecting pipe of an automotive windshield washer fluid reservoir. At this point, the positioning rubber ring and the raised strip inside the pipe clamp come into contact with the connecting pipe of the reservoir. Simultaneously, the rigid positioning rubber ring expands or contracts to fit the diameter of the connecting pipe of the reservoir, causing the linkage plate to compress or stretch the positioning spring to deform. Meanwhile, the raised strip fills the gap between the connecting pipe of the reservoir and the positioning rubber ring, ensuring the sealing performance after docking, thereby improving the compatibility of the sealing cap.

[0023] A positioning spring 7 is connected to the opening on the inner wall of the pipe clamp 1. The other end of the positioning spring 7 is connected to a linkage plate 8. The other side of the linkage plate 8 is connected to a linkage rod 9. The other end of the linkage rod 9 is connected to a positioning rubber ring 10. A protrusion 11 is installed on the inner wall of the positioning rubber ring 10.
[0024] Preferably, the positioning springs 7 are evenly distributed in a ring inside the pipe clamp 1, and the positioning springs 7 and the linkage plate 8 form an elastic telescopic structure.
[0025] In practical use, when it is connected to the pipe clamp 1, the positioning spring 7 is driven to undergo elastic deformation, which facilitates the quick and stable assembly of the pipe clamp 1.
[0026] Preferably, the linkage rod 9 passes through the pipe clamp 1 and extends to the outside of the pipe clamp 1, and the linkage rod 9 is made of PVC.
[0027] In practical use, the telescopic structure of the linkage rod 9 facilitates the expansion and adjustment of the positioning rubber ring 10, thereby making it easy to adapt and stabilize.
[0028] Preferably, both the positioning rubber ring 10 and the raised strip 11 are made of silicone, and the positioning rubber ring 10 and the raised strip 11 are an integral structure.
[0029] In practical use, the use of positioning rubber ring 10 and convex strip 11 makes it easy for pipe clamp 1 to be stably adapted to the connecting pipe of storage box of different sizes, while ensuring a sealed connection.
[0030] Preferably, a rubber sealing ring 12 is installed on the inner wall of the cover plate 5, and the cover plate 5 is sealed to the mating plate 2 through the sealing ring 12.
[0031] In practical use, by installing the sealing ring 12 on the inner ring of the cover plate 5, the sealing ring 12 on the inner wall of the cover plate 5 can ensure the sealing performance and prevent leakage of car windshield washer fluid.

[0034] The working principle of this utility model in specific use is as follows: First, the bottom end of the pipe clamp 1 is fitted onto the connecting pipe of the car windshield washer fluid storage tank. At this time, the positioning rubber ring 10 and the protrusion 11 inside the pipe clamp 1 come into contact with the connecting pipe of the storage tank. Simultaneously, the rigid positioning rubber ring 10 expands or contracts to fit the diameter of the connecting pipe of the storage tank. At the same time, the linkage plate 8 is driven to compress or stretch the positioning spring 7 to deform. Meanwhile, the protrusion 11 fills the gap between the connecting pipe of the storage tank and the positioning rubber ring 10, ensuring the sealing performance after docking, thereby improving the adaptability of the sealing cover. In addition, when the cover plate 5 is covered on the surface of the docking plate 2, the sealing ring 12 on the inner wall of the cover plate 5 ensures the sealing performance and prevents the car windshield washer fluid from leaking. At the same time, the buckle 13 on the inner wall of the cover plate 5 engages with the groove 14 on the surface of the docking plate 2, thereby facilitating the quick and stable installation of the cover plate 5.
