[0022] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, but should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0023] Please see Figures 1 to 5This utility model provides a technical solution: a welded pipe fitting with a viewing window, including a welding assembly 1, which includes a welded pipe body 101. An installation notch 104 is provided on the side surface of the welded pipe body 101. An observation assembly 2 is provided above the welded pipe body 101. The observation assembly 2 includes a square installation protective box 201. A square placement groove 202 is provided on the inner wall of the square installation protective box 201. A square hollow sealing gasket 203 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the square placement groove 202. A square tempered glass 204 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the square hollow sealing gasket 203. The bottom outer surface of the square installation protective box 201 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the installation notch 104. Three support rods 205 are fixedly connected to the left side surface of the square installation protective box 201, evenly distributed at the center of the left side surface. Connecting short rods 206 are fixedly connected to the top of the three support rods 205. Both ends of the connecting short rod 206 are rotatably connected to rotating cylinders 207. Connecting rods 208 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating cylinders 207. There are six connecting rods 208, with three adjacent connecting rods 208 forming a group, and the two groups of connecting rods 208 are positioned correspondingly. A square protective cover 209 is fixedly connected to the top of each group of connecting rods 208. A rubber frame 210 is fixedly connected to the right side surface of the square protective cover 209. The right side surface of the rubber frame 210 is movably connected to the upper surface of the square tempered glass 204, and the side surface of the rubber frame 210 is movably connected to the inner wall of the square placement slot 202. An insert plate 211 is fixedly connected to the side surface of the square protective cover 209. An insert frame 212 is movably connected to the side surface of the insert plate 211. The left side surface of the insert frame 212 is fixedly connected to the right side surface of the square mounting protective box 201. Both the insert plate 211 and the insert frame 212 have threaded holes on their side surfaces, and the insert plate 211 and the insert frame 212 are connected by bolts. An installation notch 104 is opened on the side surface of the welding pipe body 101 of the welding assembly 1. The bottom outer surface of the square installation protective box 201 of the observation assembly 2 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the installation notch 104, so as to achieve precise fixation of the observation assembly 2 above the welding pipe body 101. A square placement groove 202 is opened on the inner wall of the square installation protective box 201. A square hollow sealing gasket 203 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the square placement groove 202. A square tempered glass 204 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the square hollow sealing gasket 203. The square placement groove 202 provides an installation reference for the sealing and viewing window structure. The square hollow sealing gasket 203 fills the gap to achieve preliminary sealing. The square tempered glass 204 constructs a medium observation passage inside the pipe.Three evenly distributed support rods 205 are fixedly connected to the left side surface of the square mounting protective box 201. The top ends of the three support rods 205 are fixedly connected to connecting short rods 206, providing stable support for the connecting short rods 206. The two ends of the connecting short rods 206 are rotatably connected to rotating cylinders 207. Two sets of corresponding connecting rods 208 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating cylinders 207. The top ends of the two sets of connecting rods 208 are fixedly connected to square protective covers 209. The rotation of the rotating cylinders 207 around the connecting short rods 206 can cause the connecting rods 208 and the square protective covers 209 to flip open and close. The side surface of the square protective cover 209 is fixedly connected to a plug plate 211. The right side surface of the square mounting protective box 201 is fixedly connected to a plug frame 212. After the plug plate 211 is inserted into the plug frame 212, it is fixed by bolts through the threaded holes of both, thereby locking the protective cover and preventing accidental opening. A rubber frame 210 is fixedly connected to the right side surface of the square protective cover 209. When the square protective cover 209 is closed and locked, the right side surface of the rubber frame 210 is movably connected to the upper surface of the square tempered glass 204, and the side surface of the rubber frame 210 is movably connected to the inner wall of the square placement groove 202. The rubber frame 210 fills the gap between the square protective cover 209, the glass, and the placement groove by means of elastic deformation, and forms a double seal with the square hollow sealing gasket 203, which not only prevents the leakage of the medium in the pipeline, but also avoids external impurities from adhering to the glass and affecting observation.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, welding rings 102 are fixedly connected to both ends of the welded pipe body 101. Sealing extension cylinders 103 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the welding rings 102. There are two sealing extension cylinders 103, and their positions correspond. The welding rings 102 provide a welding contact surface between the welded pipe body 101 and the external pipe. Welding through the welding rings 102 enhances the connection's strength and prevents deformation of the welded pipe body 101 during direct welding. Two corresponding sealing extension cylinders 103 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the welding rings 102. During welding, the sealing extension cylinders 103 can nest within the external pipe, assisting in precise alignment between the welding rings 102 and the external pipe, reducing welding deviation, and simultaneously covering the weld gap. This, combined with the weld layer, improves the sealing of the weld and reduces the risk of leakage.

[0025] Working Principle: The first step is pre-assembly preparation, which requires pre-processing the components of welding assembly 1 and observation assembly 2. Check the dimensional accuracy of the mounting notch 104 on the side surface of the welding pipe body 101 to ensure it matches the bottom outer surface of the square mounting protective box 201. Clean the inner wall of the square placement groove 202, the surface of the square hollow sealing gasket 203, and the contact surface of the square tempered glass 204, removing oil, burrs, and other impurities to avoid affecting subsequent sealing. Simultaneously, check the surface flatness and connection hole accuracy of the support rod 205, connecting short rod 206, rotating cylinder 207, and other protective cover-related components to ensure normal rotation and fixing functions. Next, the core structure assembly is carried out. First, align the bottom outer surface of the square mounting protective box 201 with the inner wall of the mounting notch 104 of the welding pipe body 101, and fix it using argon arc welding. During the process, control the current and temperature to prevent high-temperature deformation of the components. After welding, polish the weld to ensure a smooth surface and avoid hindering subsequent installation. The second step involves applying high-temperature resistant sealant to the square placement groove 202, embedding the square hollow sealing gasket 203, and ensuring a seamless fit. Then, apply sealant evenly to the upper surface of the sealing gasket, cover it with square tempered glass 204, and press to bond it. Let it stand until the sealant cures, forming the first layer of sealing and the foundation for visibility of the window. The third step involves welding three evenly distributed support rods 205 to the center left side of the square mounting protective box 201, ensuring the axes are vertical and the spacing is equal. A horizontal connecting short rod 206 is welded to the top of the support rods 205, with flexibly rotatable rotating cylinders 207 fitted at both ends. Two sets of symmetrical connecting rods 208 are welded to the outside of the rotating cylinders 207, and a square protective cover 209 is welded to the top. A suitable rubber frame 210 is bonded to the right side of the protective cover. Finally, a plug plate 211 is welded to the side of the protective cover, and a plug frame 212 is welded to the right side of the protective box, aligning the threaded holes to complete the pre-assembly of the pipe fittings.

[0026] The subsequent installation phase involves pipe connection. First, the welding rings 102 at both ends of the welded pipe body 101 are aligned with the ports of the external pipe. The sealing extension cylinder 103 on the outside of the welding ring 102 is then nested within the external pipe. The sealing extension cylinder 103 guides the connection, ensuring coaxiality and preventing uneven weld gaps due to misalignment. Second, the welding rings 102 and the external pipe are welded using arc welding or argon arc welding. Welding is performed evenly along the circumference to ensure a full and defect-free weld. After welding, non-destructive testing is performed on the weld to confirm quality compliance. Simultaneously, the fit between the sealing extension cylinder 103 and the external pipe is checked to ensure it covers the welded area, forming an auxiliary seal. This completes the connection between the pipe fitting and the external pipe, establishing a complete media transmission path. In daily use, when it is necessary to observe the medium inside the pipeline, first loosen the bolts of the insert plate 211 and the insert frame 212 with a wrench. After pulling out the insert plate 211, rotate the square protective cover 209 around the connecting short rod 206 and observe the medium flow rate, liquid level, and other conditions through the square tempered glass 204. If necessary, use lighting for assistance. After observation, reverse the protective cover so that the rubber frame 210 fits against the glass and the placement groove. Insert the insert plate 211 and tighten the bolts. The elastic deformation of the rubber frame 210 fills the gap, forming a double seal with the square hollow sealing gasket 203 to prevent medium leakage and impurity adhesion. After long-term use, if scale forms on the glass, gently wipe it with a soft cloth dampened with special cleaning agent. If the square hollow sealing gasket 203 ages and deforms, remove the glass, replace the sealing gasket, reinstall it, and cure the sealant. After maintenance, restore the protective cover to its sealed state to ensure the continuous and stable operation of the pipe fitting, which combines media transmission, visual monitoring, and safety sealing functions.
