[0024] 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.

[0025] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a double-layer subsea pipeline plugging device, including a plugging component for plugging the double-layer subsea pipeline. The plugging component includes two assembly rings 6, which are respectively sleeved on the top and bottom of the double-layer subsea pipeline. The two assembly rings 6 have a common cap 7 on their front side. An inner sealing post 8 and an outer sealing ring 9 for plugging the double-layer subsea pipeline are installed on the rear side of the cap 7. The outer sealing ring 9 is sleeved on the outside of the inner sealing post 8. The mounting post 1 and the mounting cylinder 2 are both located on the front side of the cap 7, and the mounting post 1 is installed on the front side of the cap 7. The cap 7 and the two assembly rings 6 are all located inside the protective pipe 4. Two retaining rings 5 ​​are respectively installed on the rear side of the two assembly rings 6.

[0026] When assembling the aforementioned sealing components, workers place the two assembly rings 6 onto the top and bottom of the double-layer subsea pipeline, respectively. Since both ends of the assembly rings 6 are equipped with fasteners, each set of fasteners includes two spaced-apart bolts 10, with a fastening nut 11 threaded onto the bottom of each bolt 10. The two assembly rings 6 are connected by the bolts 10 and the nuts 11. This allows workers to secure the two assembly rings 6 using the bolts and nuts 11, effectively ensuring the stability of the connection between the two assembly rings 6.

[0027] Next, the cap 7 is placed in front of the two assembly rings 6, and the inner sealing post 8 and outer sealing ring 9 on the cap 7 seal the double-layer subsea pipeline. Multiple spaced fixing bolts 12 are provided on the front side of the cap 7, penetrating the cap 7 and extending into the assembly rings 6, and are threadedly connected to the assembly rings 6. A groove 13 is provided on the rear side of the connecting ring 3, and the multiple fixing bolts 12 are all located inside the groove 13. This allows workers to tighten the cap 7 and assembly rings 6 together using the fixing bolts 12, thus ensuring the stability of the connection between the cap 7 and assembly rings 6, and thereby guaranteeing the sealing effect of the sealing component on the double-layer subsea pipeline.

[0028] The sealing component is equipped with a protective component to ensure stability. The protective component includes a mounting post 1 located on the front side of the sealing component. The mounting post 1 is externally threaded with a mounting cylinder 2. A connecting ring 3 is sleeved on the rear end of the mounting cylinder 2. A protective tube 4 is installed on the rear side of the connecting ring 3. Two symmetrically distributed retaining rings 5 ​​are provided inside the rear end of the protective tube 4.

[0029] This allows the operator to fit the mounting cylinder 2 onto the outside of the mounting post 1, and then rotate the mounting cylinder 2 to connect it to the mounting post 1 by thread. This facilitates the fitting of the protective tube 4 onto the outside of the cover 7 and the two assembly rings 6. With the cooperation of the protective tube 4 and the two retaining rings 5, the cover 7 and the two assembly rings 6 can be completely shielded, thus preventing damage to the sealing component from external collisions and impacts, and ensuring the integrity and performance of the sealing component.

[0030] Meanwhile, since sealing grooves 14 are provided inside both the front and rear ends of the protective tube 4, and sealing rings 15 are provided inside the sealing grooves 14, the sealing ring 15 located at the rear end of the protective tube 4 is fitted over the two retaining rings 5, and the sealing ring 15 located at the front end of the protective tube 4 is fitted over the cap 7. Thus, the sealing performance between the protective tube 4 and the sealing component can be enhanced by the fit between the sealing rings 15 and the retaining rings 5 ​​and the cap 7.

[0031] Subsequently, a conveying pipe 16 is fixedly connected to the top of the protective pipe 4. A valve 17 is installed on the outside of the top of the conveying pipe 16, and a connection port 18 is fixedly connected to the top of the conveying pipe 16. This allows workers to connect the drainage equipment to the connection port 18 and then drain the seawater from the protective pipe 4, preventing seawater from corroding and damaging the internal equipment, thereby effectively ensuring the performance of the sealing component.

[0032] Finally: The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
