Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a connecting device, and more particularly, to a connecting device that connects a plurality of hoses or pipes, and adjusts the movement of a fluid.

BACKGROUND ART

A connecting device that is generally applied to connect hoses or pipes corresponds to a device that connects a plurality of hoses or pipes to extend the overall length of the hose or pipe and adjust the movement of a fluid flowing through the connecting device.

In particular, a connecting device that connects fire hoses or pipes is required to connect a long distance from a fire truck to a fire point and supply water in a situation in which the entry of a fire truck to the fire is difficult due to vehicles, various obstacles, and the like at the time of fire fighting, and therefore the connecting device may connect a plurality of hoses each having a length of approximately 15 m to extend the overall length of the connected hoses through which water is supplied.

In FIGS. 1 to 4, a general connecting device for connecting hoses or pipes is disclosed. The general connecting device 30 includes a rotor 31 provided therein, a cap 32 provided at one side of the connecting device 30, and a handle 34 coupled to an upper portion of a shaft 33 coupled to the rotor 31.

Thus, when rotating the handle 34 in a case of opening and closing the general connecting device 30, the inside of the connecting device 30 may be opened and closed while the rotor 31 is rotated by the shaft 33.

However, the above-described general connecting device has a problem in that it may be bent against or collide with corners or the like, or the handle may be caught by the corners or the like while being moved in alleys or stairs so that the connecting device may malfunction or the movement of the connecting device may be disturbed.

In addition, in the case of the general connecting device, the water pressure applied to a fire hose rapidly increases when the nozzle of the fire hose is closed, so that the movement and manipulation of the hose becomes inconvenient due to an increase in the weight of the hose, and a hydrant valve or the like should be separately manipulated in order to adjust the hydraulic pressure inside the hose.

In the present embodiment, the cap 300 allows the opening/closing unit 200 to be rotatably coupled to the connecting unit 100 in such a manner as to be screwed to the protrusion unit 130 or the connecting unit body 110 in a state in which the opening/closing unit 200 is interposed between the connecting unit body 110 and the cap body 310.

Hereinafter, an operation principle and effect of the connecting device 1 according to the present embodiment will be described.

In the present embodiment, the rotor 140 is first inserted into the insertion hole 131 inside the protrusion unit 130 in order to assemble the connecting device 1.

At this point, the shaft insertion groove 142 provided in the upper central portion of the rotor 140 is allowed to be located on the same vertical line with the shaft insertion hole 134 of the protrusion unit 130, and the rotor rotating unit 150, specifically, the gear shaft 152 is inserted into the shaft insertion hole 134 so that a lower end portion of the gear shaft 152 is coupled to the shaft insertion groove 142.

When the rotor rotating unit 150 is coupled to the rotor 140, the opening/closing unit 200 is coupled to the protrusion unit 130 in such a manner that the protrusion unit 130 is inserted into the through-hole 211 provided inside the opening/closing unit body 210.

At this point, the rotor rotating unit 150 protruding from the upper portion of the protrusion unit 130, specifically, the rotating unit body 151 is inserted into the gear insertion groove 220 provided on an upper inner circumferential surface of the opening/closing unit 200, and the gear 151a provided on the outer circumferential surface of the rotating unit body 151 is engaged with the gear groove 230.

When the opening/closing unit 200 and the connecting unit 100 are coupled to each other, the cap 300 is coupled to the connecting unit 100 by screwing the cap screw portion 320 to the protrusion unit screw portion 132.

When the cap 300 is screwed to the connecting unit 100, the cap body 310 of the cap 300 supports the opening/closing unit body 210 of the opening/closing unit 200 in a direction (a right direction on the basis of FIG. 8) of the connecting unit body 110, and the cap packing 330 provided inside the cap screw portion 320 is brought into close contact with the rotor 140.

Next, the connecting unit packing 135 is brought into close contact with the rotor 140 while the rotor 140 is supported by the curved support 133 provided to protrude inward from the inner circumferential surface of the insertion hole 131 of the protrusion unit 130.

As described above, the connecting unit packing 135 and the cap packing 330 of the cap 300 are brought into close contact with the rotor 140, so that sealing between the rotor 140 with the connecting unit 100 and the inside of the cap 300 is maintained, and the cap oil ring 340 provided between the cap body 310 and the cap screw portion 320 is brought into close contact with the inner circumferential surface of the front insertion hole 131 of the protrusion unit screw portion 132 of the protrusion unit 130 so that sealing between the insertion hole 131 of the protrusion unit 130 and the cap 300, specifically the cap screw portion 320 is maintained.

Accordingly, oil such as lubricant injected between an outer circumferential surface of the protrusion unit 130 and an inner circumferential surface of the opening/closing unit body 210 is prevented from flowing into the insertion hole 131 inside the protrusion unit 130.

In addition, referring to FIG. 9, the opening/closing unit knobs 212 provided to protrude outward from the outer circumferential surface of the opening/closing unit body 210 are located to cross with the connecting unit knobs 120, and in this state, the drainage hole 141 of the rotor 140 is located in a state of being rotated in a direction perpendicular to the insertion hole 131 of the protrusion unit 130, so that the flow of a fluid through the connecting device 1 is shut off.

In addition, referring to FIG. 10, when the opening/closing unit knobs 212 of the opening/closing unit 200 are rotated in a clockwise direction so as to have the same position as the connecting unit knobs 120, the gear groove 230 is rotated along the opening/closing unit body 210.

When the gear groove 230 is rotated, a rotational force is transmitted to the rotating unit body 151 through the gear 151a engaged with the gear groove 230, so that the rotating unit body 151 is rotated and the rotor 140 is rotated by 90° by the gear shaft 152 coupled to the shaft insertion groove 142. When the rotor 140 is rotated, a penetration direction of the drainage hole 141 is parallel to or coincides with a penetration direction of the insertion hole 131, so that the inside of the connecting device 1 is opened.

At this point, a plurality of rotating unit oil rings 154 provided in an upper portion of the gear shaft 152 of the rotor rotating unit 150 are brought into close contact with an inner circumferential surface of the shaft insertion hole 134 of the protrusion unit 130, so that oil such as lubricant injected between the outer circumferential surface of the protrusion unit 130 and an inner circumferential surface of the through-hole 211 of the opening/closing unit body 210 of the opening/closing unit 200 is prevented from flowing into the inner insertion hole 131 through the shaft insertion hole 134.

In addition, the wear-resistant cap 153 is provided in the upper central portion of the rotating unit body 151 of the rotor rotating unit 150 to prevent the rotating unit body 151 from being worn.

As described above, when the connecting device 1 according to the present embodiment is used to connect fire hoses or the like, a degree to which a plurality of connecting devices 1 connecting a plurality of hoses are opened may be adjusted to reduce the water pressure and weight of the hose, thereby reducing accidents and improving usability.

In addition, in the connecting device 1 according to the present embodiment, the connecting unit 100, the opening/closing unit 200, and the cap 300 may be detachably coupled to one another to facilitate the assembly and disassembly of the device, and the overall length of the hose may be extended and the movement of a fluid through the hose may be adjusted by adopting a plurality of connecting devices 1.

In addition, in the connecting device 1 according to the present embodiment, the rotor rotating unit 150 may be located inside the opening/closing unit 200, so that a protrusion component such as a lever may be minimized and the connecting device 1 may be prevented from malfunctioning due to being caught by stairs or obstacles during the movement of the device.

In the connecting device 1 according to the present embodiment, a packing or the like may be applied among the connecting unit 100, the opening/closing unit 200, and the cap 300 to have therebetween, so that the connecting device 1 may be used as a variety of valves used in the home, gas valves, water supply and drainage valves, valves of chemical plants or oil refineries, or the like.

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications can be made to the above-described exemplary embodiments of the present invention without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention. Thus, it is intended that the present invention covers all such modifications provided they come within the scope of the appended claims and their equivalents.
