[0003] However, existing technologies still have the following problems:
[0004] In existing liquid cooling pipe connection technologies, the connection between the liquid delivery pipe and the connecting pipe is often not secure due to unreasonable connection structure design. When the equipment vibrates during operation or is subjected to external force, the connection is prone to loosening or even detachment, seriously affecting the normal operation of the liquid cooling system. Moreover, the existing connection method has poor sealing performance, and coolant is prone to leakage from the connection gaps during high-pressure flow.

An mounting plate is fixedly provided on the outer side of the positioning plate and the connecting plate. A positioning ring is fixedly provided at one end of the infusion pipe, and the positioning ring is located inside the positioning plate and the connecting plate.
[0008] Preferably, the positioning mechanism includes multiple threaded plates, which are arranged in a ring on one side of the positioning plate.

Detailed Implementation
[0016] 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.
[0017] Example: Figure 1-3As shown, this utility model provides a liquid cooling pipe connector assembly, including an infusion pipe 1, a connecting pipe 4 at one end of the infusion pipe 1, and a connecting mechanism 2 at one end of both the infusion pipe 1 and the connecting pipe 4. A positioning mechanism 3 is fixedly provided on one side of the connecting mechanism 2, and the inner side of the positioning mechanism 3 is in contact with the outer side of the infusion pipe 1. The connecting mechanism 2 includes a positioning plate 23 and a connecting plate 20, one side of the positioning plate 23 and the connecting plate 20 are respectively fixedly connected to one end of the infusion pipe 1 and the connecting pipe 4, and an mounting plate is fixedly provided on the outer side of the positioning plate 23 and the connecting plate 20. 21. A positioning ring 24 is fixedly provided at one end of the infusion tube 1. The positioning ring 24 is located inside the positioning plate 23 and the connecting plate 20. When using this liquid-cooled pipe connector assembly, first align the positioning ring 24 at one end of the infusion tube 1 with the groove 26 on one side of the connecting plate 20, bring the infusion tube 1 and the connecting tube 4 close together, so that the positioning plate 23 and the connecting plate 20 fit together. At this time, the positioning ring 24 is inside the positioning plate 23 and the connecting plate 20. At the same time, the leak-proof rubber ring 25 on one side of the connecting plate 20 will fit tightly with the side of the positioning ring 24, playing a preliminary sealing role. Next, through the fastening holes 22 on the mounting plate 21, use appropriate fasteners, such as bolts and nuts, to fix every two fastening holes 22, firmly connecting the positioning plate 23 and the connecting plate 20 together, thereby completing the connection of the infusion tube 1 and the connecting tube 4 through the connecting mechanism 2.
[0018] The positioning mechanism 3 includes multiple threaded plates 30, which are arranged in a ring on one side of the positioning plate 23. The inner side of the threaded plates 30 is in contact with the infusion tube 1. A positioning sleeve 33 is fitted onto the outer side of the multiple threaded plates 30. A threaded groove 34 is formed on the inner side of the positioning sleeve 33, and an inclined groove 32 is formed on the inner side of the threaded groove 34. After the connecting mechanism 2 initially connects the infusion tube 1 and the connecting tube 4, the positioning mechanism 3 is operated. Since the multiple threaded plates 30 are arranged in a ring on one side of the positioning plate 23, and the inner side of the threaded plates 30 is in contact with the infusion tube 1, the positioning sleeve 33 is fitted onto the outer side of the multiple threaded plates 30, and the positioning sleeve 33 is rotated so that the threaded groove 34 on the inner side of the positioning sleeve 33 cooperates with the threaded plates 30. During rotation, the inclined groove 32 on the inner side of the threaded groove 34 will further compress the threaded plate 30. Because the threaded plate 30 is a plastic plate and has multiple anti-slip protrusions 31 on its inner side, the anti-slip protrusions 31 will fit tightly against the outer side of the infusion tube 1, thereby enhancing the fixing and positioning effect of the infusion tube 1 and ensuring the stability of the infusion tube 1 after connection.
[0019] The groove 26 on one side of the positioning plate 23 and the connecting plate 20 fits snugly with the positioning ring 24. This design provides precise positioning for the connection between the infusion tube 1 and the connecting tube 4. During installation, the groove 26 can quickly guide the positioning ring 24 to the correct position, making the connection more accurate and avoiding problems such as loose connection or poor sealing caused by inaccurate positioning, thus improving the reliability and stability of the connection.
[0020] The leak-proof rubber ring 25, fixed on one side of the connecting plate 20, fits snugly against the side of the positioning ring 24. When the infusion pipe 1 and the connecting pipe 4 are connected, the leak-proof rubber ring 25 provides a good seal. It effectively prevents coolant from leaking out of the connection point, preventing coolant waste and avoiding damage to surrounding equipment caused by leaking coolant, such as short circuits, thus ensuring the normal operation of the liquid cooling system and the safety of the equipment.
[0021] The fastening holes 22 on one side of the mounting plate 21 are fixedly engaged in pairs, providing a reliable fixing method for the connecting mechanism 2. By connecting the two fastening holes 22 with fasteners, the positioning plate 23 and the connecting plate 20 can be firmly fixed together, enhancing the stability of the connection between the infusion tube 1 and the connecting tube 4. This ensures that the connection can withstand the vibration and external force generated during equipment operation and prevents the connection from easily loosening or detaching.
[0022] Multiple anti-slip protrusions 31 on the inner side of the threaded plate 30 fit against the outer side of the infusion tube 1, increasing the friction between the threaded plate 30 and the infusion tube 1. When the positioning mechanism 3 fixes and positions the infusion tube 1, the anti-slip protrusions 31 can effectively prevent the infusion tube 1 from sliding relative to the threaded plate 30, further improving the stability of the infusion tube 1 connection and ensuring that the infusion tube 1 will not be displaced due to the pressure generated by the liquid flow during the operation of the liquid cooling system.
[0023] The threaded plate 30 is a malleable plate, which gives the positioning mechanism 3 better adaptability and flexibility. When the positioning sleeve 33 rotates and compresses the threaded plate 30, the malleable threaded plate 30 can deform to a certain extent according to the degree of compression of the positioning sleeve 33 and the shape of the infusion tube 1, thereby better conforming to the infusion tube 1 and enhancing the fixing effect. At the same time, this malleability also allows the positioning mechanism 3 to adapt to infusion tubes 1 of different specifications and sizes, improving the versatility of this liquid-cooled pipe joint assembly.
[0024] Working principle: When using this liquid-cooled pipe fitting assembly, first align the positioning ring 24 at one end of the infusion tube 1 with the groove 26 on one side of the connecting plate 20. Bring the infusion tube 1 and the connecting tube 4 close together so that the positioning plate 23 and the connecting plate 20 are in contact. At this time, the positioning ring 24 is located inside the positioning plate 23 and the connecting plate 20. Simultaneously, the leak-proof rubber ring 25 on one side of the connecting plate 20 will fit tightly against the positioning ring 24, providing an initial seal. Next, using appropriate fasteners such as bolts and nuts, secure every two fastening holes 22 through the fastening holes 22 on the mounting plate 21 to firmly connect the positioning plate 23 and the connecting plate 20 together, thus completing the connection of the infusion tube 1 and the connecting tube 4 through the connecting mechanism 2.
[0025] After the connecting mechanism 2 initially connects the infusion tube 1 and the connecting tube 4, the positioning mechanism 3 is operated. Since multiple threaded plates 30 are arranged in a ring on one side of the positioning plate 23, and the inner side of the threaded plates 30 is in contact with the infusion tube 1, the positioning sleeve 33 is placed on the outer side of the multiple threaded plates 30, and the positioning sleeve 33 is rotated so that the threaded groove 34 on the inner side of the positioning sleeve 33 engages with the threaded plate 30. During rotation, the inclined groove 32 on the inner side of the threaded groove 34 further compresses the threaded plate 30. Because the threaded plate 30 is a malleable plate and has multiple anti-slip protrusions 31 on its inner side, the anti-slip protrusions 31 will tightly adhere to the outer side of the infusion tube 1, thereby enhancing the fixation and positioning effect of the infusion tube 1 and ensuring the stability of the infusion tube 1 after connection.

Therefore, if these modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims of this utility model and their equivalents, this utility model also intends to include these modifications and variations.
