There are two arc-shaped plates 12, distributed on the left and right sides of the connecting box 1, supporting the two pipes 5 respectively.
[0038] In this invention, when connecting two pipes 5, flanges 4 are installed on the ends of the two pipes 5 respectively. The flanges 4 are then slidably connected to the channel 2 inside the connecting box 1 via the slide rail 3. The two flanges 4 move towards each other. When the two flanges 4 approach each other, they are attracted by the electromagnet 6. At this time, the sealing gasket 7 inside one flange 4 extends into the sealing groove inside the other flange 4, and the two flanges 4 seal and align, allowing the two pipes 5 to form a seal after docking. Then, the cylinder 9 is activated, and the cylinder 9 drives the upper clamp 11 to extend and retract via the push rod 10. The upper clamp 11 wraps around the upper half of the pipe 5, and the lower clamp 8 extends around the lower half of the pipe 5. The pipe 5 is clamped by the upper clamp 11 and the lower clamp 8. The pipe 5 extending to the outside of the connecting box 1 is supported by the arc plate 12, making the connection between the two pipes 5 stable and secure. When the pipe 5 slides inside the connecting box 1, the pipe 5 above the arc plate 12 will contact the support pulley 19. The support pulley 19 is rotatably connected inside the first pulley frame 18, so that the pipe 5 can smoothly enter the interior of the connecting box 1. The limiting pulleys 21 are distributed on both sides inside the arc plate 12.
