[0025] The fastening assembly 3 includes a fastening ring 301, an inner groove 302, an air bladder 303, an inflation tube 304, and a valve 305. The fastening ring 301 is threadedly connected to both the fixing tube 101 and the upper tube body 201. The fastening ring 301 connects the fixing tube 101 to the upper tube body 201 and provides an initial seal using the threads. The inner circumferential surface of the fastening ring 301 has an inner groove 302, and the air bladder 303 is snapped into the inside of the inner groove 302. The air bladder 303 is annular and located on the outside of the lower tube body 202. The inner circumferential surface of the air bladder 303 has anti-slip textures, which not only improves the friction of the connection but also... It can also improve the stability of the connection. An inflation tube 304 is fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of the airbag 303.

The infusion tubing 4 is inserted into the movable component 2, and the bottom of the infusion tubing 4 is positioned between the lower tube body 202 and the locking post 204. The outer locking block 205 forms a locking seal with the infusion tubing 4. Then, the movable component 2 is inserted into the fixed tube 101, so that the inner tube 102 is inserted into the lower tube body 202. The inner tube 102 is located inside the locking post 204. The inner locking ring 103 forms a locking seal with the infusion tubing 4 again. Then, the fastening ring 301 is rotated to connect the fixed tube 101 to the upper tube body 201. The air bladder 303 is inflated using the inflation tube 304. The air bladder 303 expands, thereby squeezing the lower tube body 202 inward. The lower tube body 202 squeezes the outer wall of the infusion tubing 4. The inner wall of the infusion tubing 4 is tightly attached to the inner tube 102, and further sealed by the action of the inner locking ring 103 and the outer locking block 205, thus forming a sealed environment.
