Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of silicone tube technology, specifically to an antistatic silicone tube. Background Technology

[0002] Silicone tubing is widely used in numerous fields due to its excellent flexibility, resistance to high and low temperatures, and good chemical stability. From the transportation of corrosive liquids in the chemical industry to the transfer of materials in the food and pharmaceutical industries, and the transportation of special fluids in the electronics and aerospace fields, silicone tubing has become a common choice for material transportation due to its reliable performance, and can adapt to the flow requirements of liquids, gases, powders, and other materials under different working conditions.

[0003] However, existing silicone tubing lacks a continuous and efficient electrostatic conduction structure. Static electricity generated by material flow cannot be quickly discharged, leading to a large accumulation of static electricity on the tubing surface. Because silicone tubing lacks a proper static discharge channel, even with grounding components, it is difficult to achieve a stable and efficient connection with the tubing body, failing to conduct static electricity to the ground in a timely manner, posing a safety hazard. Furthermore, traditional silicone tubing is difficult to flexibly adjust to different installation spaces and location requirements, limiting its use in complex environments and significantly restricting its application in scenarios sensitive to static electricity and with demanding installation conditions. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of existing technical solutions, this utility model provides an antistatic silicone tube, which can effectively solve the technical problem of poor antistatic performance of current silicone tubes.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:

[0006] An antistatic silicone tube includes a silicone tube body and metal grounding components sleeved at both ends of the silicone tube body.

[0007] The inner wall of the silicone tube is provided with an antistatic layer, which is spirally wound around the inner wall of the silicone tube. Both ends of the antistatic layer are provided with snap-fit ​​parts.

The fixed part away from the telescopic part is provided with a grounding mounting hole for grounding fixation.

[0010] Furthermore, a wear-resistant layer and a protective layer are sequentially provided on the outer side of the silicone tube.

[0011] Furthermore, the bottom of the annular groove is provided with a sealing ring that is sealed and connected to the silicone tube body.

[0012] Furthermore, the inner wall of the annular groove is provided with a plurality of protruding retaining strips along the depth direction, and the protruding retaining strips are circumferentially spaced.

[0013] Furthermore, the snap-fit ​​portion is T-shaped, the shape of the snap-fit ​​groove matches the snap-fit ​​portion, and one side of the snap-fit ​​groove communicates with the inner wall of the annular groove.

[0014] Furthermore, one end of the fixing part is provided with a slot for inserting the telescopic part, and the outer side of the fixing part is provided with a plurality of positioning holes communicating with the slot along the length direction. The telescopic part is provided with a positioning slot that cooperates with the positioning holes.

[0033] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0034] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides an antistatic silicone tube, mainly used for materials (liquid, gas, powder) suitable for flow within the tube, preventing the generation and accumulation of static electricity during material flow. It should be noted that this material is non-corrosive; otherwise, it would affect the performance of the antistatic layer 3, and the antistatic effect would be compromised after prolonged use.

[0035] The structure of this antistatic silicone tube mainly consists of a silicone tube body 1 and a metal grounding component 2. The silicone tube body 1 is used for the flow of materials, while the metal grounding component is used to prevent the generation and accumulation of static electricity.

[0036] The silicone tube 1 serves as the main structure, and its inner wall is provided with an antistatic layer 3. The antistatic layer 3 is spirally wound around the inner wall of the silicone tube 1. This design can form a continuous and stable antistatic channel inside the silicone tube 1. Both ends of the antistatic layer 3 are provided with snap-fit ​​parts 301, which are T-shaped and facilitate snap-fit ​​fixing with the metal grounding part 2.

[0037] Meanwhile, a wear-resistant layer 4 and a protective layer 5 are sequentially provided on the outer side of the silicone tube 1. The wear-resistant layer 4 can effectively enhance the wear resistance of the silicone tube 1 and extend its service life; the protective layer 5 can further protect the silicone tube 1 from the erosion of the external environment.

[0038] It should be noted that in some special application scenarios, different materials for the wear-resistant layer 4 and protective layer 5 can be selected according to specific needs. For example, in high-temperature environments, high-temperature resistant materials can be used for the wear-resistant layer 4 and protective layer 5 to ensure that the antistatic silicone tube can still be used normally under high-temperature conditions; in environments with strong external corrosion, corrosion-resistant materials can be used for the wear-resistant layer 4 and protective layer 5 to further improve the environmental adaptability of the antistatic silicone tube.

[0039] Metal grounding component 2 is fitted onto both ends of silicone tube 1. It consists of a hollow mounting component 21 and a support component 22. The two end faces of the mounting component 21 are respectively provided with an annular groove 211 and a retaining groove 212. The annular groove 211 is used for interlocking with the silicone tube 1. A sealing ring 6 is provided at the bottom of the annular groove 211 to ensure a sealed connection between the mounting component 21 and the silicone tube 1, preventing liquid or gas leakage. The inner wall of the annular groove 211 is provided with several raised retaining strips 2111 along the depth direction, and these strips are circumferentially spaced. The engagement of the raised retaining strips 2111 with the silicone tube 1 further enhances the strength of the connection.

[0040] The shape of the slot 212 matches the snap-fit ​​part 301, and one side of the slot 212 is connected to the inner wall of the annular groove 211, so that the snap-fit ​​part 301 of the antistatic layer 3 can be smoothly snapped into the slot 212, realizing a stable connection between the antistatic layer 3 and the metal grounding part 2.

[0041] The support member 22 consists of a telescopic part 221 and a fixed part 222. One end of the telescopic part 221 is fixed to the outside of the mounting member 21, and the other end of the telescopic part 221 is used to insert into the slot 2224 opened in the fixed part 222. The outer side of the fixed part 222 has a plurality of positioning holes 2222 that communicate with the slot 2224 along the length direction. One end of the telescopic part 221 is inserted into the slot 2224 of the fixed part 222. The telescopic part 221 has a corresponding positioning slot 2212 that cooperates with the positioning holes 2222. The outer side of the fixed part 222 is also provided with a locking member 223 that passes through the positioning holes 2222 and the positioning slots 2212 in sequence to achieve fixation. By adjusting the telescopic length of the telescopic part 221 in the fixed part 222 and fixing it with the locking member 223, the length of the support member 22 can be adjusted according to the actual use requirements.

[0042] The other end of the fixing part 222 is provided with a horizontally unfolded part 2223. A grounding mounting hole 2221 is opened on the horizontally unfolded part 2223, which facilitates the connection of the antistatic silicone tube to the grounding device through the grounding mounting hole 2221, thereby timely dissipating the static electricity generated by the silicone tube body 1 and improving the antistatic effect of the silicone tube.

[0043] In the actual installation process, first, the antistatic layer 3 is spirally wound around the inner wall of the silicone tube 1, exposing the snap-fit ​​part 301. Then, the annular groove 211 of the metal grounding component 2 is aligned with the end of the silicone tube 1 and inserted, while the snap-fit ​​part 301 is snapped into the slot 212, thus connecting the silicone tube 1, the antistatic layer 3, and the metal grounding component 2. After adjusting the length of the telescopic part 221 of the support component 22 according to actual needs, it is fixed with the locking component 223. Finally, the entire antistatic silicone tube is grounded through the grounding mounting hole 2221 to complete the installation.

[0044] Compared with traditional technologies, this technical solution forms a continuous and uninterrupted electrostatic conduction path by spirally winding an antistatic layer 3 on the inner wall of the silicone tube 1, greatly improving electrostatic transmission efficiency. Combined with a metal grounding component 2 for fixed connection, a complete electrostatic discharge channel is constructed, which can quickly guide the static electricity generated by the silicone tube 1 to the ground, significantly reducing the risk of static electricity accumulation. Furthermore, the support component 22 of the metal grounding component 2 adopts a design combining a telescopic part 221 and a fixed part 222. The free extension and retraction of the fixed part 222 within the telescopic part allows for flexible adjustment of the support component length according to the space constraints and installation location requirements of the actual application scenario, meeting the grounding needs of different environments and improving the product's applicability.

Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description.
