Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of copper-plated pipe fittings, and in particular to a copper-plated pipe fitting that is easy to snap into. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of piping systems, copper-plated pipe fittings are widely used in various building water supply and drainage, heating, and industrial fluid transportation applications due to their excellent corrosion resistance, antibacterial properties, and aesthetic appeal. However, traditional copper-plated pipe fitting connection methods have many drawbacks.

[0003] Taking a copper-plated pipe fitting with easy snap-fit ​​design (publication number CN213177217U) as an example, although this fitting has a mechanism for easy snap-fit ​​installation, which solves the problems of cumbersome pipe connection and quick disassembly to some extent, its connection sealing performance is poor in practical applications. During the operation of the pipeline system, fluid may leak from the connection points, which not only wastes resources but may also damage the surrounding environment and equipment, or even cause safety accidents, when transporting corrosive or hazardous fluids. Moreover, as the pipeline system is used for a longer period of time, due to insufficient sealing, external impurities can easily enter the pipeline, affecting the quality of the fluid and potentially accelerating internal corrosion of the fitting, thus reducing the service life of the entire pipeline system.

[0004] Furthermore, some existing copper-plated pipe connection methods require complex tools and specialized techniques during installation, demanding a high level of skill from installers, resulting in low installation efficiency and increased project and time costs. Additionally, disassembly and replacement of pipe fittings are difficult, causing significant inconvenience for maintenance. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a convenient snap-fit ​​copper-plated pipe fitting. On the one hand, the elastic force of the second abutment spring ensures that the sealing ring is firmly abutted against the second end of the copper-plated pipe fitting, effectively guaranteeing the sealing performance of the pipe fitting connection, preventing fluid leakage, and ensuring the safe and stable operation of the pipeline system. On the other hand, when the fixing groove of the second copper-plated pipe fitting corresponds to the snap-fit ​​fixing component, the sliding rod automatically snaps into the fixing groove under the elastic force of the first abutment spring, realizing convenient and quick docking and disassembly, reducing installation difficulty and time cost, and facilitating later maintenance.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the main technical solutions adopted by this utility model include:

[0007] A copper-plated pipe fitting that is easy to snap on, comprising:

[0008] A copper-plated pipe fitting 1 and a copper-plated pipe fitting 2 used in conjunction with the copper-plated pipe fitting 1, wherein a pipe fitting connection assembly for sealingly connecting the copper-plated pipe fitting 1 and the copper-plated pipe fitting 2 is installed between the copper-plated pipe fitting 1 and the copper-plated pipe fitting 2.

[0009] The aforementioned copper-plated pipe fittings that are easy to snap into, wherein the pipe fitting connection assembly includes a pipe fitting connection seat that matches the second copper-plated pipe fitting, and the pipe fitting connection seat is fixedly connected to the end of the first copper-plated pipe fitting.

[0010] The aforementioned copper-plated pipe fittings that are easy to snap on are provided with snap-on fixing components at the top and bottom of the pipe fitting connector for fixing the copper-plated pipe fitting two, and a fixing slot is provided on the copper-plated pipe fitting two corresponding to the position of the snap-on fixing component.

[0011] The aforementioned copper-plated pipe fittings that facilitate snap-fitting include a mounting groove formed on the pipe fitting connector, a connecting slider slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting groove, and a sliding rod that matches the fixing groove fixedly connected to the connecting slider.

[0012] In the aforementioned copper-plated pipe fitting that is easy to snap on, both sides of the connecting slider are fixedly connected to limit sliders, and the inner wall of the mounting groove is provided with a limit groove that matches the limit slider at the position of the limit slider.

[0013] In the aforementioned copper-plated pipe fitting that is easy to snap into, a fixing ring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting groove, and a first abutment spring is fixedly connected to the fixing ring, with the other end of the first abutment spring fixedly connected to the connecting slider.

[0014] The aforementioned copper-plated pipe fittings that are easy to snap into place, wherein a sealing assembly for sealing the copper-plated pipe fitting one and the copper-plated pipe fitting two is also fixedly connected to the side of the inner wall of the pipe fitting connector.

[0015] The aforementioned copper-plated pipe fittings that are easy to snap into, wherein the sealing assembly includes a sealing shell fixedly connected to the inner wall side of the pipe fitting connector, a sealing ring slidably connected to the inner wall of the sealing shell, a second abutment spring fixedly connected to the side of the sealing ring, and the other end of the second abutment spring fixedly connected to the side of the inner wall of the sealing shell.

[0016] This utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0017] 1. This utility model realizes a convenient snap-fit ​​copper-plated pipe fitting. On the one hand, with the elastic force of the second abutment spring, the sealing ring is firmly abutted against the two ends of the copper-plated pipe fitting, which, together with the sealing component, effectively ensures the sealing of the pipe fitting connection, prevents fluid leakage, and ensures the safe and stable operation of the pipeline system. On the other hand, when the fixing groove of the second copper-plated pipe fitting corresponds to the snap-fit ​​fixing component, under the elastic force of the first abutment spring, the sliding rod automatically snaps into the fixing groove, realizing convenient and quick docking and disassembly, reducing installation difficulty and time cost, and facilitating later maintenance. In addition, the good sealing and convenient snap-fit ​​reduce the damage to the pipe fitting caused by the entry of external impurities and fluid leakage, improve the reliability and service life of the pipeline system, and reduce the overall cost.

[0018] 2. Excellent Sealing Performance: When connecting copper-plated pipe fittings, this invention simply requires inserting the second copper-plated pipe fitting into the fitting connector at one end of the copper-plated pipe fitting, so that the end of the second copper-plated pipe fitting abuts against the sealing component on the inner wall side of the fitting connector. Under the elastic force of the second abutment spring, the sealing ring can firmly abut against the end of the second copper-plated pipe fitting, forming a reliable sealing structure and effectively preventing fluid leakage from the connection. This sealing method can adapt to different working pressures and fluid environments, greatly improving the sealing performance of copper-plated pipe fitting connections, ensuring the safe and stable operation of the pipeline system, and avoiding problems such as resource waste, environmental pollution, and safety accidents caused by leakage.

[0019] 3. Convenient snap-fit ​​operation: When the fixed slot on copper-plated pipe fitting 2 moves to the position of the corresponding snap-fit ​​fixing component, the sliding rod can automatically snap into the corresponding fixed slot under the elastic force of the abutment spring 1, realizing convenient connection between copper-plated pipe fitting 1 and copper-plated pipe fitting 2. The entire snap-fit ​​process does not require complicated tools or cumbersome operating steps. Installers only need to simply insert copper-plated pipe fitting 2 into the pipe fitting connector to complete the connection, greatly reducing the installation difficulty, improving installation efficiency, and saving engineering and time costs. At the same time, when it is necessary to disassemble and replace the pipe fitting, the operation is also very simple. Just overcome the elastic force of the abutment spring 1 and pull the sliding rod out of the fixed slot to easily separate copper-plated pipe fitting 1 and copper-plated pipe fitting 2, providing great convenience for the maintenance and repair of the pipeline system.

[0035] The following will describe in detail the implementation of this application with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, so that the implementation process of how this application uses technical means to solve technical problems and achieve technical effects can be fully understood and implemented accordingly.

[0036] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a copper-plated pipe fitting that is easy to snap on, comprising: a copper-plated pipe fitting 1 and a copper-plated pipe fitting 2 used in conjunction with the copper-plated pipe fitting 1, wherein a pipe fitting connection assembly 3 for sealingly connecting the copper-plated pipe fitting 1 and the copper-plated pipe fitting 2 is installed between the copper-plated pipe fitting 1 and the copper-plated pipe fitting 2.

[0037] By adopting the above technical solution, on the one hand, the sealing ring 3052 is firmly abutted against the end of the copper-plated pipe fitting 2 by the elastic force of the second abutment spring 3053, which, together with the sealing component 305, effectively ensures the sealing performance of the pipe fitting connection, prevents fluid leakage, and ensures the safe and stable operation of the pipeline system; on the other hand, when the fixing groove 3012 of the copper-plated pipe fitting 2 corresponds to the locking and fixing component 3011, the sliding rod 3022 automatically engages with the fixing groove 3012 under the elastic force of the first abutment spring 3041, realizing convenient and quick docking and disassembly, reducing installation difficulty and time cost, and facilitating later maintenance; in addition, good sealing and convenient locking reduce the damage to the pipe fitting caused by the entry of external impurities and fluid leakage, improve the reliability and service life of the pipeline system, and reduce the overall cost.

[0038] To achieve precise docking and initial positioning of copper-plated pipe fitting 1 and copper-plated pipe fitting 2, in this embodiment: the pipe fitting connection assembly 3 includes a pipe fitting connection seat 301 that matches the copper-plated pipe fitting 2, and the pipe fitting connection seat 301 is fixedly connected to the end of the copper-plated pipe fitting 1. The top and bottom of the pipe fitting connection seat 301 are provided with snap-fit ​​fixing components 3011 for fixing the copper-plated pipe fitting 2, and the copper-plated pipe fitting 2 has a fixing groove 3012 at the position corresponding to the snap-fit ​​fixing component 3011. By setting the pipe fitting connection seat 301 and the corresponding snap-fit ​​fixing components 3011 and fixing grooves 3012, a precise structural match is provided for the connection of the two copper-plated pipe fittings, making the connection process more directional and accurate, facilitating subsequent fixing operations, and improving the efficiency and reliability of the connection.

[0039] To enable the snap-fit ​​fixing assembly 3011 to flexibly and stably fix the copper-plated pipe fitting 2, in this embodiment: the snap-fit ​​fixing assembly 3011 includes a mounting groove 302 formed on the pipe fitting connecting seat 301, a connecting slider 3021 slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting groove 302, and a sliding lever 3022 that matches the fixing slot 3012 fixedly connected to the connecting slider 3021. The sliding connection design of the mounting groove 302 and the connecting slider 3021 allows the sliding lever 3022 to move flexibly within a certain range, thereby smoothly snapping into or out of the fixing slot 3012, realizing the fixing or disassembly of the copper-plated pipe fitting 2, which is simple and flexible to operate.

[0040] To prevent the connecting slider 3021 from shifting during sliding within the mounting groove 302 and to ensure that the sliding rod 3022 accurately engages with the fixed groove 3012, in this embodiment: limiting sliders 303 are fixedly connected to both sides of the connecting slider 3021, and limiting grooves 3031 matching the limiting sliders 303 are provided on the side of the inner wall of the mounting groove 302 at positions corresponding to the limiting sliders 303. The engagement of the limiting sliders 303 and the limiting grooves 3031 precisely restricts the sliding direction and range of the connecting slider 3021, preventing it from wobbling or shifting during sliding, ensuring that the sliding rod 3022 accurately engages with the fixed groove 3012, and improving the stability and accuracy of the engagement.

[0041] To enable the sliding lever 3022 to automatically engage with the fixed slot 3012 without external force, thus automatically fixing the copper-plated pipe fitting 2, in this embodiment: a fixing ring 304 is also fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting slot 302, and a first abutment spring 3041 is fixedly connected to the fixing ring 304, with the other end of the first abutment spring 3041 fixedly connected to the connecting slider 3021. The first abutment spring 3041 is in a certain compressed or stretched state under natural conditions, generating elastic force to push the connecting slider 3021, thereby causing the sliding lever 3022 to move towards the fixed slot 3012 and engage there, achieving automatic fixing without the need for continuous manual application of external force, simplifying the operation process and improving the convenience of connection.

[0042] To ensure the sealing of the joint between copper-plated pipe fitting 1 and copper-plated pipe fitting 2 and prevent fluid leakage, in this embodiment, a sealing assembly 305 for sealing copper-plated pipe fitting 1 and copper-plated pipe fitting 2 is fixedly connected to the side of the inner wall of the pipe fitting connector 301. The sealing assembly 305 includes a sealing shell 3051 fixedly connected to the side of the inner wall of the pipe fitting connector 301, a sealing ring 3052 slidably connected to the inner wall of the sealing shell 3051, and a second abutment spring 3053 fixedly connected to the side of the sealing ring 3052. The other end of the second abutment spring 3053 is fixedly connected to the side of the inner wall of the sealing shell 3051. When copper-plated pipe fitting 2 is inserted into the pipe fitting connector 301, its end abuts against the sealing ring 3052. Under the elastic force of the second abutment spring 3053, the sealing ring 3052 will tightly fit against the end of copper-plated pipe fitting 2, forming a good sealing effect, effectively preventing fluid leakage and ensuring the normal operation of the pipeline system.

[0043] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0044] During the copper-plated pipe fitting connection operation, simply insert copper-plated pipe fitting 2 smoothly into the fitting connector 301 at the end of copper-plated pipe fitting 1. During this process, the end of copper-plated pipe fitting 2 will contact the sealing component 305 on the inner wall side of the fitting connector 301. Specifically, under the pressure of the end of copper-plated pipe fitting 2, the sealing ring 3052 will slide within the sealing shell 3051, while the abutment spring 3053 is compressed and generates elastic force. This elastic force will react on the sealing ring 3052, making it firmly abut against the end of copper-plated pipe fitting 2, thereby ensuring good sealing at the connection between copper-plated pipe fitting 1 and copper-plated pipe fitting 2, effectively preventing fluid leakage.

[0045] Meanwhile, as the copper-plated pipe fitting 2 is continuously inserted, its fixing groove 3012 moves to the position corresponding to the locking and fixing component 3011. Under the elastic force of the abutment spring 3041, the connecting slider 3021 slides within the mounting groove 302, thereby driving the sliding rod 3022 to accurately engage with the corresponding fixing groove 3012. This process achieves convenient and stable connection between the copper-plated pipe fitting 1 and the copper-plated pipe fitting 2, without the need for complicated operating steps and tools, greatly improving installation efficiency and connection reliability.
