[0016] The technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The preferred embodiments described are only examples. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0017] like Figures 1-4As shown, the specific embodiment adopts the following technical solution: it includes a tube body 1 and an end cap 2, and the end cap 2 is fixedly provided at both ends of the tube body 1; It also includes: Fins 3, there are several fins 3, which are respectively abutted in the mounting grooves with equally rounded corners on the outer ring wall of the tube body 1. Insert blocks 4 are fixedly installed on both the left and right sides of the fins 3. The movable ring 5 is movably fitted onto the left end cap 2, and the right end cap 2 is fixedly fitted with a fixed ring 6. The left and right side inserts 4 are respectively movably inserted into the slots 7 opened on the movable ring 5 and the fixed ring 6. Several guide strips 11 are evenly distributed with rounded corners on the left end cap 2 at the right side position of the connecting ring 8. The inner ring wall of the movable ring 5 is provided with guide grooves 12 that cooperate with the guide strips 11. The guide strips 11 can provide auxiliary guidance for the movement of the movable ring 5, thereby ensuring the stability of the movement of the movable ring 5. A connecting ring 8 is fixedly sleeved on the left end cap 2. Several threaded rods 9 are rotatably connected to the right side wall of the connecting ring 8 by bearings with equal rounded corners. The threaded rods 9 are threaded and rotated through the movable ring 5. The connecting ring 8 is provided with a control mechanism 10 connected to the threaded rods 9. A stabilizing ring 16 is fixedly sleeved on the left end cap 2. The right end of the threaded rod 9 is rotatably connected to the stabilizing ring 16 by threads. The stabilizing ring 16 can provide support for the right end of the threaded rod 9, thereby effectively improving the rotational stability of the threaded rod 9. The control mechanism 10 includes: A control ring 10-1 is rotatably mounted on a connecting ring 8 via a bearing. An internal gear ring 10-2 is fixedly installed on the inner ring wall of the control ring 10-1. The internal gear ring 10-2 is movably mounted in a groove 10-3 on the outer ring wall of the connecting ring 8. A rubber ring 15 is fixedly mounted on the control ring 10-1. The rubber ring 15 has anti-slip texture. The cooperation between the rubber ring 15 and the anti-slip texture can not only improve the comfort of the operator's hand when rotating the control ring 10-1, but also reduce the occurrence of hand slippage. Gears 10-4, several of which are fixedly sleeved on the left ends of several threaded rods 9, and all gears 10-4 mesh with the internal gear ring 10-2. The control mechanism 10 can realize the synchronous rotation of several threaded rods 9, which not only realizes the convenient movement of the movable ring 5, but also ensures the stability of the movement of the movable ring 5, thereby realizing the convenient installation and removal of several fins 3. A threaded locking rod 13 is threadedly inserted through the left side wall of the control ring 10-1. A limiting groove 14 that cooperates with the threaded locking rod 13 is opened on the left side wall of the connecting ring 8. The threaded locking rod 13 can limit the control ring 10-1 on the connecting ring 8, preventing the control ring 10-1 from being rotated at will and causing the fins 3 to loosen after installation.

[0018] When using this utility model, rotate the threaded locking rod 13 so that one end of it disengages from the limiting groove 14. Then, rotate the control ring 10-1. The control ring 10-1 drives the internal gear ring 10-2 to rotate. The internal gear ring 10-2 drives several gears 10-4 to rotate synchronously. The gears 10-4 drive the threaded rod 9 to rotate, causing the movable ring 5 to move to the left, so that the left insert 4 disengages from the slot 7 on the movable ring 5. Then, the fin 3 can be moved to the left, so that the right insert 4 disengages from the slot 7 on the fixed ring 6. After that, the fin 3 can be removed from the mounting groove. When fin 3 needs to be installed, fin 3 is pressed against the installation groove and pushed to the right so that the right-side insert 4 is inserted into the slot 7 on the fixing ring 6. Then, the control ring 10-1 is rotated in the opposite direction. The control ring 10-1 drives the internal gear ring 10-2 to rotate in the opposite direction. The internal gear ring 10-2 drives several gears 10-4 to rotate in the opposite direction synchronously. The gears 10-4 drive the threaded rod 9 to rotate in the opposite direction, so that the movable ring 5 moves to the right so that the left-side insert 4 is inserted into the slot 7 on the movable ring 5, thus realizing the convenient installation of fin 3 on the tube body 1. Afterwards, the threaded locking rod 13 can be rotated in the opposite direction so that one end is inserted into the limiting groove 14 to limit the rotation of the control ring 10-1.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: With the cooperation of the control mechanism 10, by simply rotating the control ring 10-1, the synchronous rotation of several threaded rods 9 can be achieved, causing the movable ring 5 to move and all fins 3 to be unlocked synchronously. This facilitates the loading and unloading of several fins 3. The independent disassembly feature of the fins 3 not only allows for selective replacement of damaged units, but also makes it easy for both the fins 3 and the tube body 1 to achieve a good cleaning effect. The threaded locking rod 13 can be used to limit the control ring 10-1 on the connecting ring 8. After the fin 3 is installed, the control ring 10-1 is locked to prevent the control ring 10-1 from rotating randomly due to vibration and other factors, which could cause the fin 3 to loosen. The stabilizing ring 16 can provide support for the right end of the threaded rod 9, thereby effectively improving the rotational stability of the threaded rod 9; The guide bar 11 can provide auxiliary guidance for the movement of the movable ring 5, thereby ensuring the stability of the movement of the movable ring 5.

[0020] For those skilled in the art, modifications can be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, and equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features.
