Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of chemical pipeline connection structures, specifically a leak-proof chemical pipeline connection structure. Background Technology
[0002] Pipeline connection structures are core components ensuring the safe and efficient transmission of fluids. Their design must comprehensively consider material compatibility, sealing reliability, and ease of operation. Welded connections that achieve permanent seals through high-temperature fusion require strict control of the welding process to avoid defects. Flange connections that use bolt preload to compress gaskets to form a seal are suitable for scenarios requiring frequent disassembly and inspection, but gasket aging needs to be checked regularly. Compression fitting connections using a double compression structure achieve sealing through mechanical compression and have strong vibration resistance. In addition, the design of pipeline connection structures must also consider factors such as ease of installation and maintenance, durability of sealing performance, and cost-effectiveness to ensure the high efficiency and safety of chemical production.
[0003] When existing chemical leak-proof pipelines are assembled and used, they mostly rely on connecting flanges on both sides for assembly. However, in areas with excessive load-bearing capacity, such as intermediate support points of long-distance horizontal pipelines or connections between pipelines and heavy equipment, traditional flange connections are used. These flanges are fixed with multiple screws, which can easily loosen over time. Additionally, the rubber rings or sealing sheets in the middle can be flattened and lose elasticity, leading to pipeline leaks. Pressure within the pipeline can push the two flange joints outwards, creating gaps. Pipeline vibration or thermal expansion and contraction can continuously rub and pull on the joints, damaging the sealing surface and easily creating gaps that lead to leaks. Furthermore, the pipeline contains filters to filter impurities from the liquid flowing through it. Cleaning and replacing these filters requires disassembling the pipeline. Each disassembly involves mechanical scraping of the sealing surface, and the repeated tightening of the flanges and gaskets through bolt connections can cause permanent interlayer collapse, making the pipeline connections prone to leaks. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a leak-proof chemical pipeline connection structure to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as leakage caused by loose bolts, gasket aging and failure, damage to the sealing surface during disassembly and maintenance, and easy deformation and leakage of load-bearing parts.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a leak-proof chemical pipeline connection structure, comprising: a first pipe body and a fourth clamping sleeve, wherein a first clamping sleeve is provided at the front end of the first pipe body, a second clamping sleeve is provided at the rear end of the first pipe body, the first clamping sleeve and the second clamping sleeve are fixedly connected by bolts, and a first protective inner sleeve is provided inside the first pipe body, and a first clamping groove is provided on the inner wall of the first protective inner sleeve.
[0006] It also includes a first limiting sleeve, a second limiting sleeve, and a locking component. The outer walls of the first and second limiting sleeves are fixedly connected to a third snap-fit sleeve, and the inner wall of the third snap-fit sleeve is fixedly connected to a third limiting sleeve. The inner wall of the third limiting sleeve is provided with multiple second snap-fit grooves, and a filter plate is snap-fitted into the inside of the second snap-fit grooves. The outer wall of one side of the filter plate is provided with multiple filter holes. The first limiting sleeve and the second limiting sleeve are fixedly engaged by the locking component.
[0007] The outer walls on both sides of the first tube are provided with second snap-fit components, and the inner walls on both sides of the second snap-fit components are fitted with third tubes.
[0008] The fourth snap-fit sleeve has a second protective inner sleeve inside, and the second protective inner sleeve has a second pipe body inside, and a first connecting flange is fixedly connected to the outer wall of one side of the second pipe body.
[0009] The second limiting sleeve and the first limiting sleeve are made of high-strength and tough special steel.
[0010] The filter plate is made of 316L stainless steel.
[0011] The second snap-fit component is engaged with the first tube body through the first snap-fit groove.
[0012] The upper end of the fourth clamping sleeve is fixedly connected to the second connecting flange, and the side of the fourth clamping sleeve away from the first connecting flange is fixedly connected to the third connecting flange.
[0013] This utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0014] The mechanical interlocking structure of the first and second limiting sleeves and locking components replaces the traditional flange bolt connection, eliminating the risk of bolt stress relaxation and gasket creep failure, thus significantly improving sealing reliability. The multi-point engagement design of the snap-fit sleeve with the first and second snap-fit grooves can suppress the separation of the sealing surface under the impact of internal pipeline pressure, reducing the leakage caused by the expansion of traditional flanges. The double-layer buffer structure of the first and second protective inner sleeves absorbs pipeline vibration and thermal expansion and contraction stress, reducing interface fretting wear. The snap-fit component is flexibly connected to the pipe body, avoiding sealing surface misalignment caused by thermal mismatch of rigid flanges. The filter maintenance convenience is greatly improved. The pluggable filter plate can be installed independently through the second snap-fit groove. When replacing the filter screen, there is no need to disassemble the main pipe body, reducing sealing surface damage caused by frequent disassembly and assembly. The filter plate and the limiting sleeve adopt a snap-fit seal, avoiding permanent deformation of the gasket caused by the compression of traditional flanges. A composite structure of the third snap-fit sleeve and the first, second and third connecting flanges is set at the key load-bearing points of the pipeline to disperse mechanical load and thermal stress, preventing deformation and leakage of the interface due to gravity accumulation.

A third snap-fit sleeve 8 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of one side of the first limiting sleeve 6 and the second limiting sleeve 7.

The first limiting sleeve 6 and the second limiting sleeve 7 are fixedly engaged by the locking element 9. The first protective inner sleeve 4 and the second protective inner sleeve 15 are connected by a ladder. To buffer vibration and thermal stress, the flexible connection of the second snap-fit assembly 20 compensates for installation deviations. The load-bearing parts adopt a composite frame of the third snap-fit sleeve 14, the first connecting flange 17, the second connecting flange 18, and the third connecting flange 19 to distribute the load to the pipe wall and external support, thereby reducing leakage of traditional flanges under dynamic loads. The first limiting sleeve 6 and the second limiting sleeve 7 are rigidly locked by the locking element 9, forcing the third snap-fit sleeve 8 to form a multi-point meshing sealing band with the first snap-fit groove 5 on the pipe body, converting the internal pressure of the pipeline into the lateral shear resistance of the sealing surface, reducing leakage caused by bolt loosening and gasket failure. The pluggable filter plate 12 is integrated into the second snap-fit groove 11. When replacing, only the partial locking element is released to avoid damage to the sealing interface by overall disassembly.
