Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of well drilling pipe technology, specifically to the interconnection structure of plastic pipes. Background Technology
[0002] Plastic well casings have become the mainstream alternative to traditional metal well casings due to their advantages such as corrosion resistance, lightweight, economy, and environmental friendliness.
[0003] Currently, the connection methods used for plastic well casings include socket bonding, thermofusion bonding, threaded connections, and flange connections. Socket bonding requires the use of adhesive, which is prone to aging and failure, and is difficult to install in low-temperature / humid environments, requiring a curing time; thermofusion bonding requires specialized equipment, is non-disassembly, and has high requirements for the operating environment (needs to be clean / flat); threaded connections are difficult to process with large-diameter threads and have poor vibration resistance; flange connections are costly, complex to install, the bolts are prone to corrosion, and they are heavy.
[0004] A novel interconnected structure for plastic pipes is designed, which requires no glue / hot melt equipment, is detachable, and has strong vibration resistance. Utility Model Content
[0005] (a) Technical issues
[0006] This invention aims to at least address the needs for low-cost, easy-to-operate, and sufficiently stable pipe connections.
[0007] (II) Technical Content
[0008] This solution provides an interconnection structure for plastic pipes, achieved through the following specific technical means: including...
[0009] The pipe body has an annular groove on the outer wall of both sets of pipe bodies near the pipe head;
[0010] The sleeve has two sets of tube heads that are fitted and inserted into the sleeve from the two ends. A corresponding annular groove is also provided on the inner wall of the sleeve at the position of the annular groove on the tube body. The annular groove on the sleeve and the corresponding annular groove on the tube body are aligned to form an annular cavity.
[0011] Locking strips are inserted into the annular cavity.
[0012] Preferred technical solution 1: A window with a connecting annular groove is provided on the outer wall of the sleeve for the locking strip to be fed into the annular cavity.
[0013] Preferred technical solution 2: The length of the locking strip is not less than the circumference of the annular cavity. When the length is long, the tail end of the locking strip can still be exposed from the window after filling the annular cavity.
[0014] Preferred technical solution 3: The tube body and the tube sleeve are both made of plastic; the locking strip is made of tough plastic.
[0015] Preferred technical solution four: An annular ridge is formed in the middle of the inner wall of the sleeve, and the end faces of the two sets of tubes respectively contact the two sides of the annular ridge.
[0016] (III) Technical Effects
[0017] The above structure gives this solution the following advantages:
[0018] 1. Double annular groove locking mechanism: The annular grooves of the sleeve and the pipe body are aligned to form a geometric limit and prevent axial displacement.
[0019] 2. Elastic fixing of the flexible strip: The deformation capacity of the flexible strip is used to fill the annular cavity, providing continuous clamping force and realizing the self-locking function;
[0020] 3. Window-based operation: The pre-reserved window on the pipe sleeve simplifies the installation of the toughness strip, balancing operational convenience with structural integrity. Attached Figure Description

[0029] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0030] Please see Figures 1-6 The interconnected structure of the pipe bodies 1 includes pipe body 1, pipe sleeve 2, and locking strip 4, wherein:
[0031] Annular grooves 5 are provided on the outer walls of the two sets of tube bodies 1 near the tube heads. The tube heads of the two sets of tube bodies 1 are inserted into the two ends of the sleeve 2. Corresponding annular grooves 5 are also provided on the inner wall of the sleeve 2 at the position of the annular grooves 5 on each set of tube bodies 1. The annular grooves 5 on the sleeve and the corresponding annular grooves 5 on the tube body 1 are aligned to form an annular cavity. The locking strip 4 is a tough strip and is filled in the annular cavity.
[0032] The pipe body 1 and pipe sleeve 2 are made of plastic, and the inner diameter of the pipe sleeve 2 is compatible with the outer diameter of the pipe body 1; the locking strip 4 is also made of non-metallic material, which can be a tough plastic material; there are no metal parts, it is highly corrosion resistant, and it is suitable for acidic / alkaline water or highly mineralized groundwater; the material cost is low (pipe body, pipe sleeve + tough strip), there is no glue pollution or heat fusion energy consumption, and it meets environmental protection requirements.
[0033] In one set of embodiments
[0034] Please see Figures 1-6 A window 3 is provided on the outer wall of the sleeve 2 to connect to the annular groove 5, so that the locking strip 4 can be inserted into the annular cavity (the cross-sectional size of the locking strip 4 is adapted to the cross-sectional size of the annular cavity). The installation is convenient and does not require glue curing time or hot melt equipment. It only requires inserting the sleeve 2 and fixing the tough strip, which is suitable for rapid construction in the field.
[0035] Furthermore, the length of the locking strip 4 is not less than the circumference of the annular cavity. If the front end of the locking strip 4 extends into the annular cavity from the window 3 and fills the annular cavity, the tail end can still protrude from the window 3. When disassembly is required, the locking strip 4 can be pulled out directly to release the locking state between the sleeve 2 and the pipe body 1. It can be repeatedly disassembled and reassembled (the flexible strip can be replaced). It is suitable for occasions that require maintenance (such as irrigation systems).
[0036] In one set of embodiments
[0037] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 6 An annular rib 6 is formed in the middle of the inner wall of the sleeve 2, and the end faces of the two sets of tube bodies 1 are in contact with the two sides of the annular rib 6 respectively.
[0038] The annular rib 6 can limit the depth of the tube body 1 inserted into the tube sleeve 2, thereby ensuring that the annular groove 5 on the tube body 1 can be aligned with the annular groove 5 on the tube sleeve 2.
[0039] During use, this solution requires daily maintenance of each component according to the established maintenance plan to ensure its working condition.
