Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of pipe fittings, and in particular to a convenient pipe fitting. Background Technology

[0002] In modern piping systems, detachable connections between pipe fittings are a key design feature ensuring system flexibility and ease of maintenance and repair. Currently, detachable connections between two pipe fittings are typically achieved through their respective connecting joints, with the main connection methods being threaded connections and snap ring connections. Threaded connections are widely used in piping systems due to their simple structure and stable connection. However, this connection method presents significant inconveniences during assembly and disassembly, requiring specialized tools for each step. This not only increases operational complexity but also extends maintenance time, with efficiency issues being particularly prominent in high-frequency maintenance scenarios.

[0003] In contrast, snap ring connections are favored for their ease of assembly and disassembly, allowing for quick separation and assembly of joints without tools, significantly improving maintenance efficiency. However, snap ring connections also have significant limitations in practical applications. In piping systems requiring frequent maintenance, joints need to be disassembled and installed repeatedly. During repeated deformation, the snap ring is prone to fatigue damage, leading to a gradual decrease in its elasticity, reduced sealing performance, and decreased connection stability, thus shortening the service life of the joint and even the entire piping system. Furthermore, the degradation of snap ring performance may also cause safety hazards such as leaks, threatening the normal operation of the system. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the aforementioned problems with existing fittings, this paper aims to provide a convenient pipe fitting.

[0005] The specific technical solution is as follows: A convenient pipe fitting connector includes two connector bodies, each having a connecting tube for connecting a pipe fitting. One connector body also has a plug, and the other connector body has a socket. The plug and the socket are inserted into each other. The connector also includes at least one locking structure disposed on the two connector bodies for locking the two connector bodies. The locking structure includes: A first groove is disposed on the outer wall of one of the connector bodies; An operating block, the bottom of which is slidably disposed in the first groove, and the operating block having a locking groove; An elastic element is provided between the operating block and the bottom of the first groove; The second groove is disposed on the end face of one of the connector bodies and penetrates the first groove; A locking block is connected to another connector body, and the end of the locking block has a limiting part that can slide with the second groove. When the operating block is pressed down and the locking groove is connected to the second groove, the limiting part can slide through the locking groove and can be limited and engaged with the side of the operating block.

[0006] As a further improvement and optimization of this solution, the bottom inner wall of the locking groove is provided with a guide slope. When the limiting part is engaged with the side limiting of the operating block, the top of the guide slope abuts against the bottom side wall limiting of the locking block.

[0007] As a further improvement and optimization of this solution, the side wall of the first groove has a limiting block. The limiting block can be matched with the top inner wall or the bottom inner wall of the locking groove. When the limiting block is matched with the top inner wall of the locking groove, the locking groove is connected to the second groove. When the limiting block is matched with the bottom inner wall of the locking groove, the locking groove and the second groove are staggered.

[0008] As a further improvement and optimization of this solution, the two connector bodies are coaxially arranged, and the connecting pipe, the socket and the plug are all coaxially arranged with the connector body.

[0009] As a further improvement and optimization of this solution, each of the connecting pipes has a sealing groove for installing a sealing ring and a retaining groove for installing a retaining ring on the outside.

[0010] As a further improvement and optimization of this solution, a sealing ring is provided between the inner wall of the socket and the outer wall of the plug.

[0011] As a further improvement and optimization of this solution, the locking structure is provided in two sets.

[0012] As a further improvement and optimization of this solution, the two sets of locking structures are located on both sides of the connector body.

[0013] As a further improvement and optimization of this solution, the elastic element is a spring.

[0014] The positive effects of the above technical solution compared with the existing technology are: This utility model features a two-pipe fitting system that achieves efficient assembly and disassembly through an innovatively designed connector structure. During connection, the connecting pipes of the two fitting bodies are respectively aligned with the pipe fitting. The operating block is pressed down to connect the locking groove with the second groove. The locking block is then inserted, and the limiting part passes through the locking groove. Subsequently, the operating block resets under the action of the elastic element. Through the double limiting effect of the limiting block, the side of the operating block, and the inner wall of the bottom of the locking groove, the limiting block is securely locked in the second groove, completing the rapid connection of the two fitting bodies. During disassembly, simply press down the operating block again to connect the locking groove with the second groove, and the limiting block can be easily pulled out, achieving rapid separation of the two fittings. This structure requires no additional tools, is simple and efficient to operate, and ensures connection stability through mechanical limiting, effectively extending the service life of the fittings and connectors.

[0019] Figure 1 This is a structural schematic diagram of a convenient pipe fitting connector according to the present invention. Figure 2 This is a cross-sectional view of a convenient pipe fitting connector according to this utility model, as shown. Figure 1-2 The diagram illustrates a preferred embodiment of a convenient pipe fitting, comprising two fitting bodies 1, each having a connecting pipe 11 for connecting to a fitting 11. One fitting body 1 also has a plug 12, and the other fitting body 1 has a socket 13, which are inserted into each other. The fitting further includes at least one set of locking structures 2 disposed on the two fitting bodies 1 for locking the two fitting bodies. The locking structure 2 includes a first groove 21, an operating block 23, an elastic element 26, a second groove 22, and a locking block 24. The first groove 21 is disposed on the outer wall of one of the fitting bodies 1. The bottom of the operating block 23 is slidably disposed within the first groove 21. The operating block 23 has a locking groove 231. An elastic element 26 is disposed between the operating block 23 and the bottom of the first groove 21. The second groove 22 is disposed on the end face of one of the connector bodies 1 and passes through the first groove 21. The locking block 24 is connected to the other connector body 1, and the end of the locking block 24 has a limiting part 25. The limiting part 25 can slide and cooperate with the second groove 22. When the operating block 23 is pressed down and the locking groove 231 is connected to the second groove 22, the limiting part 25 can slide through the locking groove 231 and can cooperate with the side of the operating block 23 for limiting.

[0020] In this embodiment, the two pipe fittings achieve efficient assembly and disassembly through an innovatively designed connector structure: During connection, the connecting pipes 11 of the two connector bodies 1 are respectively aligned with the pipe fittings. The operating block 23 is pressed down to connect the locking groove 231 with the second groove 22. The locking block 24 is inserted, and the limiting part 25 passes through the locking groove 231. Subsequently, the operating block 23 is reset under the action of the elastic element 26. Through the double limiting of the limiting block 27 and the side of the operating block 23 and the inner wall of the bottom of the locking groove 231, the limiting block 27 is securely locked in the second groove 22, completing the rapid connection of the two connector bodies 1. During disassembly, simply press down the operating block 23 again to connect the locking groove 231 with the second groove 22, and the limiting block 27 can be easily pulled out, achieving rapid separation of the two pipe fittings. This structure requires no additional tools, is simple and efficient to operate, and ensures connection stability through mechanical limiting, effectively extending the service life of the pipe fittings and connectors.

[0021] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, the bottom inner wall of the locking groove 231 is provided with a guide slope 2311. When the limiting part 25 is engaged with the side limit of the operating block 23, the top of the guide slope 2311 abuts against the bottom side wall of the locking block 24.

[0022] In this embodiment, a guide slope 2311 is specially provided on the inner wall of the bottom of the locking groove 231. When installing the locking block 24, it is only necessary to push it into the second groove 22. When the limiting part 25 contacts the guide slope 2311, the slope structure will automatically guide the limiting part 25 to press down the operating block 23. After the limiting part 25 passes the top of the slope and passes through the locking groove 231, the operating block 23 will automatically reset under the elastic force of the elastic element 26, thus completing the limiting and locking of the locking block 24. This makes the installation process easier and smoother, without the need to manually press down the operating block 23 continuously, and significantly improves the installation efficiency.

[0023] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, the side wall of the first groove 21 has a limiting block 27. The limiting block 27 can be limited and engaged with the top inner wall or bottom inner wall of the locking groove 231. When the limiting block 27 is limited and engaged with the top inner wall of the locking groove 231, the locking groove 231 is connected to the second groove 22. At this time, the locking block 24 can slide through the locking groove 231. When the limiting block 27 is limited and engaged with the bottom inner wall of the locking groove 231, the locking groove 231 and the second groove 22 are staggered. In this state, the locking block 24 is in the withdrawn state. The limiting block 27 is limited and engaged with the bottom inner wall of the locking groove 231 to prevent the operating block 23 from disengaging from the first groove 21.

[0024] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, the two connector bodies 1 are coaxially arranged, and the connecting pipe 11, the socket 13 and the plug 12 are all coaxially arranged with the connector body 1.

[0025] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, each connecting pipe 11 has a sealing groove 112 for installing a sealing ring and a retaining groove 111 for installing a retaining spring on its exterior. The connecting pipe 11 is inserted into the end of the fitting, and the inner wall of the fitting and the outer wall of the connecting pipe are sealed by a sealing ring and engaged by a retaining spring.

[0026] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, a sealing ring is provided between the inner wall of the socket 13 and the outer wall of the plug 12.

[0027] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, the locking structure 2 is provided in two sets.

[0028] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, the two sets of locking structures 2 are located on both sides of the connector body 1, which balances the forces and improves the connection stability.

[0029] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, the elastic element 26 is a spring.

[0030] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the implementation method and protection scope of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art should realize that all solutions obtained by equivalent substitutions and obvious changes made based on the description and illustrations of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
