Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0019] The following is combined with Figures 1-5 This invention describes a gas field pipeline flange cover with leak-proof design.

[0020] In one embodiment, a gas field pipeline flange cover with leak-proof features includes: a flange cover body 100, the flange cover body 100 including a left cover 101, a flange 103, a right cover 104 and a pipe body 105, the left cover 101 and the right cover 104 being sleeved on the outer arc surface of the flange 103, the left cover 101 and the right cover 104 being connected on one side by a hinge, and the left cover 101 and the right cover 104 being connected on the other side by a buckle 102; In this embodiment, extension plates for mounting hinges are provided on one side of the left cover 101 and the right cover 104, thereby ensuring that there are no gaps between the left cover 101 and the right cover 104 due to the installation of hinges. After the left cover 101 and the right cover 104 cover the outside of the flange 103, the left cover 101 and the right cover 104 are quickly locked by the buckle 102, thereby ensuring the stability of the connection between the left cover 101 and the right cover 104, and improving the efficiency of the assembly and disassembly of the left cover 101 and the right cover 104.

[0021] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the leak-proof mechanism 200 includes a right pipe cover 201, a left pipe cover 202, and a sealing assembly for improving the sealing between the left protective cover 101 and the right protective cover 104. Two sets of right pipe covers 201 and left pipe covers 202 are provided, symmetrically arranged on both sides of the left protective cover 101 and the right protective cover 104. The sealing assembly includes a main sealing strip 204, a sealing block 205, and a snap-fit ​​sealing strip 210. The main sealing strip 204 is located on the right... The protective cover 104 is located on the side of the left protective cover 101. The sealing block 205 is located on the side of the main sealing strip 204 near the left protective cover 101. The left protective cover 101 is located on the side of the right protective cover 104 and has a sealing main groove 209 corresponding to the main sealing strip 204. Two sets of snap-fit ​​sealing strips 210 are provided. The two sets of snap-fit ​​sealing strips 210 are located on the side of the left protective cover 101 near the right protective cover 104. The two sets of snap-fit ​​sealing strips 210 have sealing grooves 211 corresponding to the sealing block 205 on their sides. In this embodiment, a set of left pipe covers 202 are respectively provided at the upper and lower ends of the left cover 101, and a set of right pipe covers 201 are respectively provided at the upper and lower ends of the right cover 104. After the left cover 101 and the right cover 104 are connected, the right pipe covers 201 and the left pipe covers 202 are connected synchronously. When the left cover 101 and the right cover 104 are connected, the main sealing strip 204 on the side of the right cover 104 is inserted into the sealing main groove 209 on the side of the left cover 101. At this time, the sealing block 205 is inserted into the sealing groove 211 on the side of the snap-on sealing strip 210, thereby ensuring the sealing performance of the connection between the main sealing strip 204 and the snap-on sealing strip 210, and thus ensuring the sealing performance of the connection between the left cover 101 and the right cover 104, preventing the gas leaking from the flange 103 from leaking from the inside of the left cover 101 and the right cover 104 to the outside.

[0022] like Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, the sealing assembly also includes a side sealing strip 206 and an annular sealing strip 207. Two sets of side sealing strips 206 are provided, and the two sets of side sealing strips 206 are symmetrically arranged on the side of the right tube cover 201 near the left tube cover 202. The left tube cover 202 near the right tube cover 201 has a sealing side groove 208 corresponding to the side sealing strips 206. Several sets of annular sealing strips 207 are provided, and the several sets of annular sealing strips 207 are symmetrically arranged between the two sets of right tube covers 201 and left tube covers 202. The outer arc surfaces of the right tube cover 201 and left tube cover 202 are fitted with cable ties 203. The right tube cover 201 and left tube cover 202 are fitted onto the outer arc surface of the tube body 105, and the tube body 105 is in contact with the several sets of annular sealing strips 207. In this embodiment, when the left protective cover 101 and the right protective cover 104 are closed, the right pipe cover 201 and the left pipe cover 202 are closed simultaneously. Then, the right pipe cover 201 and the left pipe cover 202 are wrapped by the cable tie 203, which further ensures the stability of the connection between the right pipe cover 201 and the left pipe cover 202. At this time, the side sealing strip 206 on the side of the right pipe cover 201 will be inserted into the sealing side groove 208 on the side of the left pipe cover 202, thereby sealing the connection between the right pipe cover 201 and the left pipe cover 202. At this time, several sets of annular sealing strips 207 will contact the pipe body 105, and the annular sealing strips 207 will be completely adhered to the pipe body 105 under the compression of the right pipe cover 201 and the left pipe cover 202, thereby ensuring that the gas leaking from the flange 103 will not leak to the outside along the direction of the pipe body 105, thus ensuring that the overall gas field pipeline flange has a leak-proof function.

[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, there are two sets of auxiliary mechanisms 300, which are respectively located inside the left protective cover 101 and the right protective cover 104. Each set of auxiliary mechanisms 300 includes an inflatable sealing cover 301 and an inflation pipe 302. The two sets of inflatable sealing covers 301 are respectively located inside the left protective cover 101 and the right protective cover 104. The inflation pipe 302 is sealed and connected to the corresponding inflatable sealing cover 301. The top ends of the two sets of inflation pipes 302 are sealed and penetrate through the left protective cover 101 and the right protective cover 104 respectively. In this embodiment, after the left protective cover 101 and the right protective cover 104 are closed, air is injected into the air-filled sealing cover 301 through the air-filling pipe 302. The air-filling pipe 302 is equipped with a plug. After the air-filled sealing cover 301 is fully inflated, the air-filling pipe 302 is plugged, thereby ensuring that the air-filled sealing cover 301 is fully inflated. The flange 103 is wrapped by the two sets of air-filled sealing covers 301. Since the air-filled sealing cover 301 is filled with gas, it will be completely sealed to the flange 103, thereby further preventing gas leakage from the flange 103 to the outside. At the same time, the air-filled sealing cover 301 further enhances the protection of the flange 103 and reduces the impact on the flange 103 when it is hit.

[0024] Working principle: Open the left protective cover 101 and the right protective cover 104, then place the flange 103 between the two sets of inflatable sealing covers 301, and then lock the left protective cover 101 and the right protective cover 104 with the buckle 102. Then, use two sets of cable ties 203 to tie the corresponding right pipe cover 201 and left pipe cover 202 together, thereby ensuring the stability of the connection between the left protective cover 101 and the right protective cover 104 and the right pipe cover 201 and the left pipe cover 202. At this time, the main sealing strip 204 is inserted into the sealing main groove 209, and the sealing block 205 is inserted into the sealing groove 211. The side sealing strip 206 is inserted into the sealing side groove 208, and several sets of annular sealing strips 207 are tightly attached to the pipe body 105, thereby preventing gas leakage to the outside through multi-layer sealing. Then, air is injected into the air-filled sealing cover 301 through the air-filling pipe 302. After the air-filled sealing cover 301 is fully inflated, the air-filling pipe 302 is blocked, thereby allowing the air-filled sealing cover 301 to fit against the flange 103, further improving the overall leak-proof capability of the flange cover, while reducing the impact force on the flange 103 when it is hit, thus strengthening the protection of the flange 103.

[0025] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions will not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
