Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of solderless mechanical tees, specifically a solderless mechanical tee. Background Technology

[0002] In piping systems, tees are common connectors used to branch or merge pipes. Traditional tee connections often involve welding, which requires specialized welding equipment and skills. Furthermore, the welding process can generate thermal stress, leading to pipe deformation or changes in material properties. In addition, welded tees are difficult to disassemble, hindering pipe maintenance and replacement. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, i.e., the issues raised in the background art, this utility model proposes a weld-free mechanical tee, comprising a main body and a connecting flange. The connecting flange is positioned above the main body and is integrally formed with the main body. Both ends of the main body are provided with sealing components for filling the gap between the main body and the connecting pipe. The main body consists of an upper guard plate and a lower guard plate. The connecting flange is positioned on the upper guard plate. Both sides of the upper and lower guard plates are provided with ear plates, which are connected by bolt assemblies. The main body is symmetrically provided with clips on both sides. Each clip is assembled from two semi-circular collars by a bolt assembly, and the clip is connected to the main body by the bolt assembly. The clip has an annular groove inside, and a positioning ring for fitting onto the pipe is engaged inside the groove.

[0004] A further feature of this invention is that the outer wall surface of the positioning ring is a conical surface, the conical surface is inclined to one side of the main body, and the inner wall surface of the slot is a conical surface that fits with the positioning ring.

[0005] A further feature of this invention is that an end cap for sealing the connecting flange is installed on the connecting flange via a bolt assembly.

[0006] The beneficial technical effects of this utility model are as follows: the structure of this solution is simple, the installation process is convenient, it is applicable to various oil and gas pipeline installation environments, and it has strong versatility and adaptability. Moreover, the independent clamping structure on both sides realizes the positioning of the pipeline, which can effectively prevent the pipeline from shifting or falling off due to vibration, thermal expansion and contraction or external force, and ensure the safe operation of the pipeline system.

[0011] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are merely illustrative of the technical principles of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0012] This utility model proposes a weld-free mechanical tee, which, compared with the traditional mechanical tee, adds a slip structure to the independent slip mechanical tee. In cases where the pipeline is leaking or the pipelines at both ends are disconnected, the positioning operation of the tee device along the pipeline axis can be achieved. The main body 1 of this solution consists of an upper protective plate and a lower protective plate. First, the positioning ring is put on the pipeline, and the upper and lower protective plates are fastened to the outer wall of the pipeline and fixed by the ear plate 5 and bolt assembly. The main body 1 has a built-in sealing component to fill the gap. The slips 3 on both sides are fastened to the positioning ring 4 and the axis is locked by the bolt assembly. Then, the slips 3 on both sides are connected to the main body 1 by the bolt assembly, and the distance between the slips 3 and the main body 1 is controlled by the bolt assembly. At the same time, the annular groove on the inner wall of the slips 3 is fastened to the outside of the positioning ring 4 for circumferential positioning. The positioning ring 4 restricts the movement of the slips 3, and the slips 3 on both sides restrict the main body 1, effectively preventing the pipeline from shifting or falling off due to vibration, thermal expansion and contraction or other external forces, ensuring the safe operation of the pipeline system. Other equipment can be connected through the connecting flange 2. When it is not necessary to connect other equipment, simply install the end cap on the connecting flange 2.

[0013] The outer wall surface of the positioning ring 4 is set as a conical surface, and the inner wall surface of the annular groove is set as a conical surface that fits with the outer wall of the positioning ring 4. When the pipeline is subjected to external force, the direction of the force can be transferred through the conical surface, so that the slip 3 is locked on the outer wall of the pipeline, increasing the stability of the mechanical tee installation.

[0014] Although the present invention has been described with reference to preferred embodiments, various modifications can be made to it and components can be replaced with equivalents without departing from the scope of the present invention. In particular, the technical features mentioned in the various embodiments can be combined in any manner as long as there is no structural conflict. The present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
