Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of quick connector technology, and in particular to a thermal management quick connector. Background Technology

[0002] A quick coupling is a connection device that allows for quick connection or disconnection of pipelines, enabling rapid assembly and disassembly. Generally, the coupling body is disengaged from the outer pipe by manually pulling the collar, and the collar returns to its original position under the action of spring force.

[0003] A search revealed a quick-connect thermal management connector, disclosed in publication number "CN215635634U". The connector includes a connector body, a movable sleeve, a positioning sleeve, a steel ball, and a spring. The connector body is adapted to connect to the circumferential outer wall of an outer pipe via the positioning sleeve. The positioning sleeve has a mounting hole along its circumference, and the steel ball is placed within the mounting hole. A movable sleeve is fitted over the positioning sleeve, and the steel ball is adapted to be pressed against the circumferential outer wall of the outer pipe via the movable sleeve. A spring is provided between the movable sleeve and the connector body. This quick-connect thermal management connector has a long service life and enables rapid connection to an outer pipe.

[0004] During the use of the above-mentioned thermal management quick connectors, we found that they could not be quickly assembled and fixed, which affected the connection efficiency of the thermal management quick connectors. Therefore, we designed a thermal management quick connector. Utility Model Content

[0018] 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.

[0019] This utility model provides, for example Figure 1-4 The thermal management quick connector shown includes a first connecting pipe 1 and a second connecting pipe 2. A male connector 3 is fixedly provided at the end of the first connecting pipe 1, and a female connector 4 is fixedly provided at the end of the second connecting pipe 2. A collar 5 integrally connected to the end of the female connector 4 is fixedly provided. The collar 5 is internally nested with the male connector 3, and a fixing component is provided between the collar 5 and the male connector 3.

[0020] Specifically, by fixing the collar 5 inside the male connector 3 through a self-checking mechanism, a quick connection between the first connecting pipe 1 and the second connecting pipe 2 is achieved, replacing the traditional connection via flanges, bolts, and nuts, thus improving the convenience of connecting the first connecting pipe 1 and the second connecting pipe 2.

[0021] according to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, this utility model discloses a thermal management quick connector. The fixing component includes an I-shaped block 9. The inner wall of the male connector 3 has grooves 6 on both sides. The I-shaped block 9 is nested inside the two grooves 6. Multiple arc-shaped columns 11 are fixedly fixed at equal intervals at the bottom of the I-shaped block 9. The outer wall of the collar 5 has arc-shaped grooves 10 on both sides that are adapted to the size of the arc-shaped columns 11. The arc-shaped columns 11 are embedded into the corresponding arc-shaped grooves 10.

[0022] Both sides of the inner wall of the groove 6 are fixedly provided with a fixed block 12 that is connected as one piece. The top of the two fixed blocks 12 are fixedly provided with a return spring 13, and the top of the return spring 13 is fixedly connected to the top of the I-shaped block 9.

[0023] Rotary shafts 7 are rotatably connected to the top of both sides of the inner wall of the groove 6. Cams 8 are fixed at both ends of the rotating shafts 7, and the bottom ends of the two cams 8 are in contact with the top end of the I-shaped block 9.

[0024] Specifically, the rotating shaft 7 drives the cam 8 to rotate, and the cam 8 presses the I-shaped block 9 down. The downward movement of the I-shaped block 9 makes it easier to press the arc-shaped column 11 at the bottom of the I-shaped block 9 into the arc-shaped groove 10, which makes it easier to fix the collar 5 inside the male connector 3.

[0025] One end of the rotating shaft 7 extends through the groove 6 to the outside and is fixedly installed with a knob 14. Multiple through holes are evenly distributed along the ring on the surface of the knob 14. Positioning holes 15 that are adapted to the inner diameter of the through holes are opened at the positions of the multiple through holes. Positioning pins 16 are inserted into the interior of the multiple through holes, and one end of the positioning pin 16 is inserted into the interior of the positioning hole 15.

[0026] Specifically, the knob 14 can be fixed by the cooperation of the positioning pin 16 and the positioning hole 15. When the knob 14 is rotated to 90 degrees, it stops rotating. At this time, the protruding end of the cam 8 is aligned with the position of the I-shaped block 9.

[0027] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When the first connecting pipe 1 and the second connecting pipe 2 are connected, firstly, the collar 5 at the end of the female connector 4 is inserted into the center of the male connector 3. Then, the positioning pin 16 on the surface of the knob 14 on the back of the male connector 3 is manually pulled out. Then, the knob 14 is manually rotated. The rotation of the knob 14 drives the rotating shaft 7 to rotate, which in turn drives the cam 8 to rotate. The cam 8 presses the I-shaped block 9 downward. When the protrusion of the cam 8 is in complete contact with the I-shaped block 9, the knob 14 rotates 90°. At the same time, the positioning pin 16 is aligned with the next positioning hole 15. The positioning pin 16 is inserted into the positioning hole 15 to fix the knob 14. The fixing of the knob 14 fixes the cam 8. At this time, the cam 8 presses the I-shaped block 9 downward, so that the arc-shaped column 11 at the bottom of the I-shaped block 9 is inserted into the arc-shaped groove 10, thereby fixing the collar 5 and completing the connection between the first connecting pipe 1 and the second connecting pipe 2.
