Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of compressors, specifically a novel compressor intake pipe connection structure. Background Technology
[0002] An air compressor is a device used to compress gas. Air compressors are similar in structure to water pumps. Most air compressors are reciprocating piston type, rotating vanes or rotating screws. They compress the gas volume and increase the pressure through pistons, screws, centrifugal force, etc. The core working principle is: intake: the intake valve draws in normal pressure air; compression: mechanical motion reduces the volume (such as piston reciprocating, screw rotating); exhaust: high-pressure air is cooled, filtered and stored or used directly. Usually, in the production process of air compressors, the intake pipe needs to be connected to the compressor body.
[0003] However, the existing compressor intake pipe connection assembly has the following defects during operation: Currently, domestically produced air compressors mostly use threaded copper connectors to connect the intake pipes to the intake pipes, and then connect them to the intake silencer. Compared with this process, the processing cost is high, the assembly process is complex, the production cost is high, and the space occupied in actual application is large. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model aims to provide a novel compressor intake pipe connection structure, mainly to solve the technical problems of existing technologies where the intake connection interface is mostly connected to the intake pipe through a copper connector using threaded connections, and then connected to the intake muffler. Compared with this process, the processing cost is high, the assembly process is complex, the production cost is high, and the space occupied in actual application is large.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A novel compressor intake pipe connection structure includes a compressor body, which is divided into a first base and a second base. Two intake pipe bodies are installed on one side of both the first base and the second base. The structure also includes a positioning mechanism, an elastic element, and a flexible element. The positioning mechanism is located on one side of the compressor body, the elastic element is located at one end of the intake pipe body, and the flexible element is located on the outer wall of the intake pipe body, with the flexible element closer to the elastic element. One end of the intake pipe body is adapted to the interior of the positioning mechanism through the elastic element, and the outer wall of the intake pipe body is engaged with the inner wall of the positioning mechanism through the flexible element. The flexible element is reverse-clamped, and both the flexible element and the sealing element are configured with an interference fit with the positioning mechanism.
[0007] The working principle and beneficial effects of this utility model:
[0008] 1. Working principle: When the intake pipe body moves the elastic element to align with the positioning mechanism, it can push the intake pipe body to squeeze the elastic element into the positioning mechanism. At the same time, the intake pipe body moves the flexible element into the inner wall of the positioning mechanism. Since the flexible element is set in reverse and inverted, it can be interference-fitted with the positioning mechanism to ensure that the intake pipe body and the compressor body are sealed and connected, and at the same time ensure that the intake pipe body is fastened to one side of the compressor body.
[0009] 2. Beneficial effects:
[0010] (1) By means of the sealing ring, one end of the intake pipe body can be inserted into the sealing hole. At this time, the outer wall of the sealing ring and the inner wall of the sealing hole are in an interference fit. At the same time, the intake pipe body drives the flexible ring to be inserted into the inner wall of the support hole. Since the flexible ring is set in reverse buckling, the flexible ring and the support hole are in an interference fit, which makes it have a certain sealing and ensures that the intake pipe body is fastened to one side of the compressor body. This makes the intake pipe body simple and compact in performance and structure, with less material, less space occupied, low assembly difficulty, and low production cost.
[0011] Preferably, the positioning mechanism includes a sealing hole and a support hole. There are two sealing holes, which are respectively opened on one side of the first base and the second base. The first base and the second base are respectively provided with support holes that communicate with the sealing holes. When the sealing hole is connected to the sealing element and the support hole is connected to the flexible element, it is convenient to fasten the two air intake pipe bodies to the first base and the second base respectively.
[0012] Preferably, the diameter of the sealing hole is larger than the diameter of the support hole, so that the cross-section of the sealing hole and the support hole is T-shaped. When the elastic element at the end of the intake pipe body is inserted into the sealing hole, it forms an interference fit with the tough element to the sealing hole, making the intake pipe body more stable after insertion and less likely to fall off. It also enhances the sealing performance of the end of the intake pipe body after insertion into the sealing hole.
[0013] Preferably, the elastic element includes a sealing ring, and two sealing rings are provided. The two sealing rings are respectively fixedly connected to the outer wall of one end of the two air intake pipe bodies. The outer wall of the sealing ring is adapted to the inner wall of the sealing hole, and pushes the air intake pipe body so that the air intake pipe body drives the sealing ring to squeeze into the support hole. Then the air intake pipe body can drive the sealing ring to squeeze into the sealing hole.
[0014] Preferably, the outer wall of the sealing ring is adapted to the interior of the positioning mechanism; the intake pipe body is continuously pushed, thereby the intake pipe body drives the sealing ring to be squeezed into the sealing hole, at which time the outer wall of the sealing ring and the inner wall of the sealing hole are interference fit.
[0015] Preferably, the toughening component includes a toughening ring, and two toughening rings are provided. The two toughening rings are respectively fixedly connected to the outer wall of the two intake pipe bodies. Pushing the intake pipe body causes the intake pipe body to drive the sealing ring through the support hole. At the same time, the intake pipe body drives the toughening ring to be inserted into the inner wall of the support hole. At this time, the toughening ring and the support hole are in an interference fit.
[0016] Preferably, the outer wall of the toughness ring is adapted to the inner wall of the positioning mechanism; the toughness ring is reverse-clamped, so that the toughness ring and the support hole are interference fit, which gives it a certain degree of sealing, making it convenient to fasten the two air intake pipe bodies to the first base and the second base respectively.

[0022] 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.
[0023] Please see Figures 1-4As shown, a novel compressor intake pipe connection structure includes a compressor body 1, which is divided into a first base 2 and a second base 3. Two intake pipe bodies 5 are installed on one side of both the first base 2 and the second base 3. The structure also includes a positioning mechanism, an elastic element, and a tough element. The positioning mechanism is located on one side of the compressor body 1 and includes a sealing hole 4 and a support hole 8. There are two sealing holes 4, which are respectively opened on one side of the first base 2 and the second base 3. Support holes 8 that communicate with the sealing holes 4 are respectively opened on one side of the first base 2 and the second base 3. The diameter of the sealing hole 4 is larger than the diameter of the support hole 8. The cross-section of the sealing hole and the support hole is T-shaped, which allows the elastic element at the end of the intake pipe body to be inserted into the sealing hole and form an interference fit with the tough element, making the intake pipe body more stable after insertion and less prone to falling off. It also enhances the sealing performance of the end of the intake pipe body after being inserted into the sealing hole.
[0024] An elastic element is provided at one end of the intake pipe body 5. The elastic element includes a sealing ring 6. There are two sealing rings 6. The two sealing rings 6 are respectively fixedly connected to the outer wall of one end of the two intake pipe bodies 5. The outer wall of the sealing ring 6 is adapted to the inside of the positioning mechanism. One end of the intake pipe body 5 is adapted to the inside of the positioning mechanism through the elastic element. Pulling one intake pipe body 5 will cause the sealing ring 6 to align with the support ring. Then push the intake pipe body 5 so that the intake pipe body 5 drives the sealing ring 6 to squeeze into the support hole 8. Then continue to push the intake pipe body 5 so that the intake pipe body 5 drives the sealing ring 6 through the support hole 8 and squeeze into the sealing hole 4. At this time, the outer wall of the sealing ring 6 and the inner wall of the sealing hole 4 are interference fit.
[0025] The flexible component is located on the outer wall of the intake pipe body 5, and is close to the elastic component. The flexible component includes two flexible rings 7, which are fixedly connected to the outer walls of the two intake pipe bodies 5 respectively. The outer wall of the flexible ring 7 is adapted to the inner wall of the positioning mechanism, and the outer wall of the intake pipe body 5 is engaged with the inner wall of the positioning mechanism through the flexible component. The flexible component is designed with a reverse snap-fit, and both the flexible component and the sealing component are configured with an interference fit with the positioning mechanism. The intake pipe body 5 drives the flexible ring 7 to be inserted into the inner wall of the support hole 8. Due to the flexibility... The ring 7 is designed with a reverse snap, which makes the tough ring 7 and the support hole 8 an interference fit, giving it a certain degree of sealing. This makes it easy to fasten the intake pipe body 5 to the first base 2, thus completing the connection between one intake pipe body 5 and the first base 2. Then, the other intake pipe body 5 is connected to the second base 3 in the same way, so that both intake pipe bodies 5 are fastened to the compressor body 1. In summary, the intake pipe body 5 has a simple and compact structure, uses less material, occupies less space, has low assembly difficulty, and low production cost.
[0026] As described above, the specific implementation of this utility model is as follows: Pulling an intake pipe body 5 causes the intake pipe body 5 to align the sealing ring 6 with the support ring. Then, pushing the intake pipe body 5 causes the intake pipe body 5 to push the sealing ring 6 into the support hole 8. Continuing to push the intake pipe body 5 causes the intake pipe body 5 to push the sealing ring 6 through the support hole 8 and into the sealing hole 4. At this time, the outer wall of the sealing ring 6 and the inner wall of the sealing hole 4 are in an interference fit. Simultaneously, the intake pipe body 5 drives the flexible ring 7 to be inserted into the inner wall of the support hole 8. Because the toughness ring 7 is reverse-clamped, the toughness ring 7 and the support hole 8 are interference fit, which provides a certain degree of sealing and facilitates the fastening of the intake pipe body 5 to the first base 2. This completes the connection between one intake pipe body 5 and the first base 2. Then, the other intake pipe body 5 is connected to the second base 3 in the same way, so that both intake pipe bodies 5 are fastened to the compressor body 1. In summary, the intake pipe body 5 has a simple and compact structure, uses less material, occupies less space, has low assembly difficulty, and low production cost.
