Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of expansion joint technology, specifically an expansion joint with a limiting locking device. Background Technology
[0002] In many engineering applications, expansion joints are key devices used to connect pipes, equipment, and other components to accommodate their expansion and contraction due to temperature changes, stress deformation, and other factors. Traditional expansion joints typically consist of an outer sleeve and an inner sleeve, with the expansion and contraction function achieved through the relative sliding of the inner sleeve within the outer sleeve. However, in actual use, this type of expansion joint lacks an effective limiting and locking mechanism. Under conditions such as pressure fluctuations or equipment vibration in the pipeline system, the inner sleeve may experience undesirable excessive sliding within the outer sleeve, leading to misalignment of pipe connections, seal failure, and ultimately, serious problems such as media leakage, affecting the normal operation and safety of the entire system.
[0003] To address the locking issue of expansion joints, some existing technologies have attempted to lock them in place. Some expansion joints use a simple bolt connection method, but this method is cumbersome. After the expansion joint is adjusted to the appropriate position, multiple bolts need to be tightened one by one, which not only consumes a lot of time and manpower, but also makes the process of disassembling and reinstalling the bolts complicated when the position of the expansion joint needs to be adjusted again. To avoid the above problems, we propose an expansion joint with a limit locking device. Utility Model Content

[0015] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0016] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1-5 A telescopic joint with a limiting locking device includes an outer sleeve 1 and an inner sleeve 2. The outer sleeve 1 and the inner sleeve 2 are prepared, and the inner sleeve 2 is inserted into one end of the outer sleeve 1. The insertion is smooth and the position is accurate. A first flange 3 is fixedly installed on the outer ring of the inner sleeve 2 located outside the outer sleeve 1 by welding. Multiple first connecting rods 5 are evenly welded to the bottom surface of the first flange 3.
[0017] Next, second flanges 4 are welded to both the upper and lower outer rings of the outer sleeve 1. Multiple first connecting rods 5 are respectively passed through the second flanges 4 installed on the upper outer ring of the outer sleeve 1, and the end of the first connecting rod 5 away from the first flange 3 is welded and fixed to the top surface of the first connecting plate 6. The second connecting plate 8 is installed at a suitable position on the outer ring of the outer sleeve 1, and multiple second connecting rods 10 are evenly welded to the side where the first connecting plate 6 and the second connecting plate 8 are close to each other.
[0018] Then, a steel hoop 9 is placed on the outer ring of the outer sleeve 1 between the first connecting plate 6 and the second connecting plate 8. The width of the steel hoop 9 matches the distance between the first connecting plate 6 and the second connecting plate 8. A fixing hook 13 is welded to the outer wall of one end of the steel hoop 9, and a mounting seat 17 is welded to the outer wall of the other end of the steel hoop 9. Fixing plates 19 are welded to both sides of the side wall of the mounting seat 17 away from the steel hoop 9. The right end of the handle 7 is placed on the side of the two fixing plates 19 that are close to each other, and hinged through the hinge shaft so that the handle 7 can rotate around the hinge point. Pull rods 12 are hinged to the side walls of both sides of the handle 7, and the two pull rods 12 are located on the left side of the fixing plate 19. Buckles 18 are welded to the side of the other end of the two pull rods 12 that are close to each other.
[0019] A mounting plate 15 is welded to the outer wall of the steel hoop 9 on one side of the mounting base 17. A limiting ring 16 is hinged to the side of the mounting plate 15 away from the steel hoop 9. A limiting plate 14 is welded to the side wall of the handle 7. A rubber strip 11 is placed between the steel hoop 9 and the outer sleeve 1 to provide compression and fixation.
[0020] When it is necessary to lock the expansion joint, tighten the steel hoop 9 around the outer sleeve 1 so that the buckle 18 is fastened to the fixed hook 13. Then turn the handle 7. The handle 7 drives the pull rod 12 to move. The pull rod 12 pulls the buckle 18 to further tighten the steel hoop 9, thus achieving locking. After locking, fasten the limit ring 16 to one side of the limit plate 14 on the handle 7 to prevent the handle 7 from loosening.
[0021] Example 2: Please refer to Figures 1-5 Based on Embodiment 1, the handle 7 is further improved by opening a cavity on the side of the handle 7 near the mounting base 17, placing a movable plate 21 in the cavity, installing a spring 22 between the movable plate 21 and the inner wall of the cavity on one side of the handle 7, and fixing a pressing block 20 that penetrates and extends to the outside of the handle 7 on the side of the movable plate 21 near the mounting base 17.
[0022] During the locking of the telescopic joint, when the handle 7 is rotated, it drives the pull rod 12 to tighten the steel hoop 9. The pressing block 20 will gradually approach the mounting base 17 as the handle 7 rotates and continue to press the handle 7. Then, the limiting ring 16 can be fastened to one side of the limiting plate 14 installed on the handle 7, completing the limiting locking operation of the limiting ring 16 on the handle 7. After releasing the handle 7, the pressing block 20 will be subjected to the reaction force of the mounting base 17, pushing the moving plate 21 to move into the cavity and compressing the spring 22. The elastic force of the spring 22 will be fed back to the handle 7, causing the handle 7 to move in the opposite direction. At this time, the limiting ring 16 can be firmly fastened to one side of the limiting plate 14 installed on the handle 7. When unlocking is required, first press the handle 7 towards the mounting base 17. At this time, the limiting ring 16 can be removed from the handle 7. Then rotate the handle 7 in the opposite direction. At this time, the buckle 18 installed on the pull rod 12 will be removed from the fixed hook 13, realizing the relaxation of the tension on the steel hoop 9, making the steel hoop 9 loose and unlocking.
[0023] Implementation effect: The first connecting rod 5 connects the first flange 3 and the first connecting plate 6, and the second connecting rod 10 is set between the first connecting plate 6 and the second connecting plate 8, forming a stable connection structure and enhancing the overall stability of the expansion joint. At the same time, a rubber strip 11 is set between the steel hoop 9 and the outer sleeve 1, and a buckle 18 is connected to the fixing hook 13 at one end of the steel hoop 9 and the pull rod 12 on the handle 7 at the other end, which can effectively limit and lock the inner sleeve 2 after expansion and contraction. The steel hoop 9 can be locked and loosened by turning the handle 7, which is simple and convenient to operate.
[0024] The limiting ring 16, which is hinged to the mounting plate 15 on the steel hoop 9, cooperates with the limiting plate 14 on the handle 7 to limit the handle 7 after locking, preventing it from loosening and ensuring the reliability of locking. In addition, the movable plate 21, spring 22 and pressing block 20 provided inside the handle 7 can press the pressing block 20 against the mounting base 17 through the elastic force of the spring 22 when locking, further improving the safety of locking operation.
[0025] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
