Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipeline technology, and in particular to a sealing connector for pipelines. Background Technology
[0002] A pipeline is a system of pipes, pipe fittings, valves, and other components used to transport gases, liquids, or fluids containing solid particles. Typically, fluids are pressurized by blowers, compressors, pumps, and boilers, flowing from high-pressure areas to low-pressure areas within the pipeline. Alternatively, the fluid's own pressure or gravity can be used for transport. Pipelines have a wide range of applications, primarily in water supply, drainage, heating, gas supply, long-distance transport of oil and natural gas, agricultural irrigation, hydraulic engineering, and various industrial installations. Connecting two sets of pipelines usually requires the use of fittings.
[0003] When using connectors to connect pipes, flanges are usually used. However, after connecting with flanges, when it is necessary to install and remove the pipes later, multiple bolts need to be installed and removed one by one using tools. This makes it impossible to quickly install and remove the pipes, which is not conducive to the use of connectors. Utility Model Content

[0009] Preferably, the limiting mechanism includes a limiting groove formed in the inner wall of the mounting frame, a limiting block is slidably installed on the inner wall of the limiting groove, and one side of the limiting block and one side of the moving plate are fixedly installed.
[0010] Preferably, a sealing ring is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the connector body, and the number of the sealing rings is two sets and they are arranged symmetrically.
[0011] Preferably, the number of flanges and mounting brackets is two sets and they are arranged symmetrically, and the number of mounting slots and mounting columns is four sets.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This pipe sealing connector can connect two sets of pipes through two sets of flanges.

An installation groove 5 is provided on the surface of the flange 4. An installation bracket 6 is fixedly installed on the surface of the connector body 1. An installation column 9 and an installation disc 10 are installed on the inner wall of the installation bracket 6 via a moving mechanism. The moving mechanism includes a threaded rod 7 rotatably installed on the inner wall of the installation bracket 6, and a threaded groove is provided on the surface of the threaded rod 7. The movable plate 8 is fixedly installed on one side and one end of the mounting column 9 to facilitate the movement of the mounting column 9. One end of the threaded rod 7 is fixedly installed on one side of the mounting plate 10. There are two sets of flanges 4 and mounting brackets 6, which are symmetrically arranged. There are four sets of mounting slots 5 and mounting columns 9. The surface of the mounting plate 10 is provided with slots 11. A cylinder 12 is fixedly installed on one side of the mounting bracket 6. A pin 16 is installed on the inner wall of the cylinder 12 through a reset mechanism. The reset mechanism includes a sliding column 13 that is slidably installed on the inner wall of the cylinder 12. A sliding plate 15 is fixedly installed on one end of the sliding column 13. A spring 14 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the cylinder 12. One end of the spring 14 is fixedly installed on one side of the sliding plate 15.

When subsequent installation and disassembly are required, the sliding column 13 is pulled to move the sliding plate 15. The sliding plate 15 moves the insert 16 away from the inner wall of the slot 11. Then, the threaded rod 7 is rotated to move the moving plate 8. The moving plate 8 moves the mounting column 9 away from the inner wall of the mounting groove 5, thus releasing the limiting installation of the two sets of flanges 4. This allows the two sets of flanges 4 and the connector body 1 to be separated for easy disassembly. By inserting the positioning block 3 into the inner wall of the positioning groove 2, the flange 4 can be positioned. The threaded rod 7 moves the mounting column 9 into the inner wall of the mounting groove 5 to limit the installation of the flange 4. The spring 14 returns to its original position and moves the sliding plate 15. The sliding plate 15 moves the insert 16 into the inner wall of the slot 11, thus limiting the installation of the threaded rod 7. This makes the overall installation more stable and achieves the purpose of facilitating the installation and disassembly of the connector body 1. The structure is simple and easy to use.
