Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of energy storage equipment pipeline connection technology, and in particular to a leak-proof energy storage direct cooling pipeline connection structure. Background Technology

[0002] The direct-cooling pipeline connection structure is a key component in energy storage systems for achieving refrigerant circulation and transfer. Its core function is to ensure the sealing performance at the pipeline interfaces to prevent refrigerant leakage, while also meeting requirements such as ease of installation, structural stability, and long-term anti-aging properties. In practical applications, traditional direct-cooling pipeline connection structures for energy storage have the following problems: Poor structural stability: In traditional connection structures, the pipe and the connecting seat are fixed by a single threaded connection. Over a long period of time, the thread is prone to loosening due to vibration and temperature changes, which leads to a decrease in the sealing pressure of the connection and increases the risk of leakage.

[0003] Insufficient sealing performance: Most traditional structures rely on a single sealing gasket for sealing. When the sealing gasket ages or deforms due to long-term exposure to low temperature and pressure changes, leakage gaps are easily generated, leading to refrigerant leakage, reducing system cooling efficiency, and increasing maintenance costs.

[0004] Installation is inconvenient: Some pipe connection structures lack alignment guidance and auxiliary force design, requiring repeated adjustment of pipe angles to achieve thread alignment during installation. Furthermore, uneven force during tightening of connecting parts can easily cause the gasket to shift, further damaging the sealing effect and prolonging installation time.

[0005] The aforementioned problems not only affect the stable operation of the energy storage direct cooling system, but may also cause environmental problems and safety hazards due to refrigerant leakage. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an energy storage direct cooling pipeline connection structure with multiple seals, convenient installation, and stable and reliable performance. Utility Model Content

[0006] This utility model provides a leak-proof energy storage direct cooling pipeline connection structure, specifically including: a first pipeline; a second pipeline connected to the first pipeline, a connecting seat rotatably mounted on the first pipeline, the connecting seat being threadedly connected to the second pipeline, a first sealing gasket attached to the right end of the first pipeline, the first sealing gasket being in elastic contact with the left end of the second pipeline, and the first sealing gasket being made of rubber.

[0007] Furthermore, auxiliary grooves are provided at equal intervals on the outer wall of the connecting seat. The auxiliary grooves are rectangular groove structures and serve as friction enhancers for the connecting seat.

[0008] Furthermore, an adjustment block is welded to the outer wall of the second pipe, and the right side of the adjustment block has a hexagonal structure.

[0009] Furthermore, a second sealing gasket is fitted onto the second pipe. The left end face of the second sealing gasket is in elastic contact with the adjusting block, and the right end face of the second sealing gasket is in elastic contact with the right end face of the connecting seat. The second sealing gasket is made of rubber.

[0010] Furthermore, a sealing seat is welded to the outside of the adjustment block. The sealing seat has an annular structure, and the inner wall of the sealing seat contacts the outer wall of the connecting seat.

[0011] Furthermore, an auxiliary component is installed on the first pipe, which consists of a nut, a third sealing gasket, and a washer, and the nut is threaded onto the first pipe.

[0012] Furthermore, a third sealing gasket and a washer are fitted onto the first pipe. The left end face of the third sealing gasket is in elastic contact with the right end face of the washer, the left end face of the washer is in contact with the right end face of the nut, and the right end face of the third sealing gasket is in contact with the left end face of the connector.

[0013] This utility model provides a leak-proof energy storage direct cooling pipeline connection structure, which has the following beneficial effects: In terms of sealing performance, this application achieves efficient leak prevention through a multi-seal design. The first sealing gasket at the connection between the first and second pipes is compressed after the connecting seat is tightened, effectively improving the basic sealing effect between the two pipes. The second sealing gasket on the second pipe makes elastic contact with the adjusting block and the connecting seat, forming a secondary seal and further enhancing the overall sealing performance. The sealing seat cooperates with the outer wall of the connecting seat to build another sealing defense line. At the same time, in the auxiliary components, after the nut is tightened, the third sealing gasket cooperates with the gasket, connecting seat, and nut under its squeezing action to complete the seal at the connection between the first pipe and the connecting seat, preventing leakage at this part. The multiple sealing structures work together to significantly reduce the risk of pipeline leakage.

[0014] In terms of operation and protection, the auxiliary groove on the outer wall of the connector enhances the friction between the hand and the connector, reduces hand slippage, significantly improves the efficiency of connecting and disconnecting the connector, and facilitates operation by staff. The hexagonal adjustment block on the outer wall of the second pipe can be held in place with a wrench when the connector is tightened, effectively preventing torque from damaging the second pipe during tightening, protecting the integrity of the pipe structure, and extending the service life of the pipeline. The overall structure takes into account sealing, operation, and protection, providing a reliable guarantee for the stable operation of the energy storage direct cooling pipeline.

[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the described embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0020] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 : This utility model proposes a leak-proof energy storage direct cooling pipeline connection structure, including: a first pipeline 1; a second pipeline 2 connected to the first pipeline 1; a connecting seat 101 rotatably mounted on the first pipeline 1; the connecting seat 101 is threadedly connected to the second pipeline 2; a first sealing gasket 103 is attached to the right end of the first pipeline 1; the first sealing gasket 103 is in elastic contact with the left end of the second pipeline 2; the first sealing gasket 103 is made of rubber; after the connecting seat 101 is tightened, the first sealing gasket 103 is compressed, and the sealing performance between the first pipeline 1 and the second pipeline 2 can be improved by the first sealing gasket 103.

[0021] The connecting seat 101 has auxiliary grooves 102 evenly spaced on its outer wall. The auxiliary grooves 102 are rectangular grooves and serve as friction enhancers for the connecting seat 101. When the connecting seat 101 is rotated by hand, the friction of the auxiliary grooves 102 reduces the chance of hand slippage and improves the efficiency of connecting and disassembling the connecting seat 101.

[0022] The second pipe 2 has an adjustment block 201 welded to its outer wall. The right side of the adjustment block 201 has a hexagonal structure. When the connecting seat 101 is turned, the adjustment block 201 is held in place by a wrench to prevent torque damage to the second pipe 2 when the connecting seat 101 is tightened.

[0023] The second pipe 2 is fitted with a second sealing gasket 202. The left end face of the second sealing gasket 202 is in elastic contact with the adjusting block 201, and the right end face of the second sealing gasket 202 is in elastic contact with the right end face of the connecting seat 101. The second sealing gasket 202 is made of rubber. The sealing performance between the first pipe 1 and the second pipe 2 can be improved again by the second sealing gasket 202.

[0024] Among them, the first pipe 1 is equipped with an auxiliary component 3, which consists of a nut 301, a third sealing gasket 302 and a gasket 303. The nut 301 is threadedly connected to the first pipe 1.

[0025] The first pipe 1 is fitted with a third sealing gasket 302 and a gasket 303. The left end face of the third sealing gasket 302 is in elastic contact with the right end face of the gasket 303. The left end face of the gasket 303 is in contact with the right end face of the nut 301. The right end face of the third sealing gasket 302 is in contact with the left end face of the connecting seat 101. When the nut 301 is tightened, the connection between the first pipe 1 and the connecting seat 101 can be sealed under the squeezing action of the nut 301, thus preventing leakage at the connection between the first pipe 1 and the connecting seat 101.

[0026] Example 2, based on Example 1, such as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a sealing seat 203 is welded to the outside of the adjusting block 201. The sealing seat 203 has an annular structure. The inner wall of the sealing seat 203 contacts the outer wall of the connecting seat 101. Through the cooperation between the sealing seat 203 and the connecting seat 101, the sealing performance between the first pipe 1 and the second pipe 2 can be further improved.

[0027] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: When connecting the leak-proof energy storage direct cooling pipeline, firstly, the first sealing gasket 103 is attached to the right end of the first pipe 1. Then, the connecting seat 101 is rotated on the first pipe 1, and the second sealing gasket 202 is simultaneously fitted onto the second pipe 2. Next, the connecting seat 101 is threaded onto the second pipe 2. During this process, it is ensured that the first sealing gasket 103 on the first pipe 1 is in elastic contact with the left end of the second pipe 2, and that the left end face of the second sealing gasket 202 is in elastic contact with the adjusting block 201 welded to the outer wall of the second pipe 2, and the right end face is in elastic contact with the right end face of the connecting seat 101. At this time, the hexagonal structure on the right side of the adjusting block 201 is used to hold the adjusting block 201 in place with a wrench. The rectangular auxiliary grooves 102 equidistantly opened on the outer wall of the connecting seat 101 are used to enhance the friction and prevent hand slippage. The connecting seat 101 is tightened to compress the first sealing gasket 103. First, tighten the connection to complete the initial connection of the first pipe 1 and the second pipe 2. Then, install the auxiliary component 3 on the first pipe 1, and sequentially fit the third sealing gasket 302 and the gasket 303 onto the first pipe 1, ensuring that the right end face of the third sealing gasket 302 contacts the left end face of the connecting seat 101 and the left end face elastically contacts the right end face of the gasket 303. Then, thread the nut 301 onto the first pipe 1, so that the left end face of the gasket 303 contacts the right end face of the nut 301. Finally, tighten the nut 301. Through the squeezing action of the nut 301, the pressure is transmitted to the third sealing gasket 302 through the gasket 303, completing the seal at the connection between the first pipe 1 and the connecting seat 101. At the same time, the inner wall of the annular sealing seat 203 welded to the outside of the adjusting block 201 on the second pipe 2 contacts the outer wall of the connecting seat 101, finally achieving a complete sealed connection between the first pipe 1 and the second pipe 2, preventing leakage at each connection.
