Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flange structure technology, specifically a flange structure that is easy to install. Background Technology

[0002] Flanges, also known as flange plates or flanges, are core components widely used in piping systems and equipment connections. They achieve detachable, sealed connections between two pipes, pipes and equipment, or equipment components through bolt fastening. Their core structure includes a circular main flange with a thickness and diameter adapted to the working conditions to bear the connection pressure, and bolt holes evenly distributed along the circumference of the flange to provide positions for bolt installation. Through tightening force, the components fit together and the flange sealing surface mates with the gasket to prevent media leakage.

[0020] Beneficial effects

[0021] This invention provides a flange structure that is easy to install. Compared with the prior art, it has the following advantages:

[0022] 1. This easy-to-install flange assembly allows for quick positioning and installation of connecting pipe 1 and connecting pipe 2 through the designed flange components, making installation more convenient. It enables operators to assemble efficiently without complicated tools or professional skills. The precise guiding structure of the flange assembly can quickly align the interface, eliminating repeated calibration steps and significantly shortening the installation time. It is compatible with connecting pipes of different specifications and requires no additional accessories. This not only reduces labor and construction costs but also avoids problems such as interface misalignment and poor sealing caused by improper installation, ensuring the sealing and stability of the pipeline connection. It is suitable for multiple scenarios such as industrial transportation and water supply and drainage.

[0031] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0032] Reference Figures 1 to 4 This application provides an easy-to-install flange structure, including a connecting pipe 1, a connecting pipe 2 on one side of the connecting pipe 1, and flange assemblies 3 fixedly installed at one end of the connecting pipe 1 and the connecting pipe 2. Support assemblies 4 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of both the connecting pipe 1 and the connecting pipe 2. The flange assembly 3 includes a flange 31 and a flange 32. The flange 31 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting pipe 1, and the flange 32 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting pipe 2. A spring 33 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting pipe 2. An L-shaped clamping plate 34 is fixedly connected to the top, and the L-shaped clamping plate 34 is slidably connected to the flange 32. A groove 35 is opened on one side of the flange 31, and the L-shaped clamping plate 34 is engaged with the groove 35. The flange assembly 3 also includes an anti-slip pad 36, which is set on the top of the L-shaped clamping plate 34. The flange assembly 3 also includes a stabilizing block 37, which is fixedly installed on one side of the L-shaped clamping plate 34. The flange assembly 3 also includes a stabilizing frame 38, which is fixedly installed on the outer side wall of the connecting pipe 2. The stabilizing block 37 and the stabilizing frame 38 are slidably connected.

[0033] In this embodiment, the easy-to-install flange assembly achieves rapid installation and stable support through the synergistic action of the flange assembly 3 and the support assembly 4. During assembly, first align the flange 31 of connecting pipe 1 with the flange 32 of connecting pipe 2, manually press the L-shaped clamping plate 34 to compress the spring 33, and release it after the two flanges are in contact. The spring 33 returns to its original position and pushes the L-shaped clamping plate 34 into the groove 35 of the flange 31, completing the initial fixation. The anti-slip pad 36 on the top of the L-shaped clamping plate 34 increases friction to prevent loosening, and the stabilizing block 37 on one side slides with the stabilizing frame 38 of connecting pipe 2 to ensure accurate clamping and avoid deformation of the clamping plate. Assembly can be completed efficiently without additional tools, solving the problem of cumbersome traditional flange installation.

[0034] Reference Figures 1 to 4 In one aspect of this embodiment, the support assembly 4 includes a limiting plate 41 and a ring 42. The limiting plate 41 is fixedly connected to the outer side walls of the connecting pipe 1 and the connecting pipe 2, respectively. The ring 42 is snapped onto the side wall of the ring 42. A round tube 43 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the ring 42. The support assembly 4 also includes a threaded rod 44, which is threadedly connected to the bottom end of the round tube 43. A support plate 45 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the threaded rod 44. The support assembly 4 also includes a knob 46, which is fixedly connected to the side wall of the threaded rod 44.

[0035] In this embodiment, the supporting component 4 provides reliable protection for the overall structure. The ring 42 is snapped between the limiting plate 41 of the connecting pipe 1 and the connecting pipe 2. The limiting plate 41 prevents the ring 42 from sliding. The circular tube 43 at the bottom of the ring 42 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 44. The support height can be adjusted by rotating the knob 46 so that the support plate 45 fits the mounting surface to adapt to different scenarios. The self-locking property of the threaded structure ensures the stability of the support height. The ring 42 surrounds the pipe laterally, and the support plate 45 bears the load vertically, effectively dispersing the force at the connection, resisting fluid pressure and external vibration, improving the structural impact resistance and service life, and reducing maintenance costs. In this case, the thread helix angle is less than the equivalent friction angle.

[0036] Working principle: This easy-to-install flange assembly achieves rapid installation and stable support through the synergistic action of flange assembly 3 and support assembly 4. During assembly, first align flange 31 of connecting pipe 1 with flange 32 of connecting pipe 2, manually press the L-shaped clamping plate 34 to compress the spring 33, and release it after the two flanges are in contact. The spring 33 returns to its original position and pushes the L-shaped clamping plate 34 into the groove 35 of flange 31, completing the initial fixation. The anti-slip pad 36 on the top of the L-shaped clamping plate 34 increases friction to prevent loosening, and the stabilizing block 37 on one side slides with the stabilizing frame 38 of connecting pipe 2 to ensure accurate clamping and avoid deformation of the clamping plate. Assembly can be completed efficiently without additional tools, solving the problem of cumbersome traditional flange installation.

[0037] Meanwhile, the support component 4 provides reliable protection for the overall structure. The ring 42 is snapped between the limiting plate 41 of the connecting pipe 1 and the connecting pipe 2. The limiting plate 41 prevents the ring 42 from sliding. The round tube 43 at the bottom of the ring 42 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 44. The support height can be adjusted by rotating the knob 46, so that the support plate 45 fits the installation surface to adapt to different scenarios. The self-locking property of the threaded structure ensures the stability of the support height. The ring 42 surrounds the pipe laterally, and the support plate 45 bears the load vertically, effectively dispersing the force at the connection, resisting fluid pressure and external vibration, improving the structural impact resistance and service life, and reducing maintenance costs.
