TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to the technical field of fluid transportation, particularly a sealing cover with a quick-plug interface.


BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The internal connection structure of the sealing cover with a quick-plug interface provided in the prior art is complex, and there are many sealing points, which increases the hidden danger of air leakage. And there are metal materials inside that will contact with the fluid. Because the pneumatic standard parts—quick plug connectors—are used to connect with the bottle cap and the shells of quick plug connectors on the market are made of metal material, the metal material will inevitably come into contact with the fluid. The residue from the passage of corrosive fluids will come into contact with the metal material and the metal material will slowly corrode after a period of time, which results in damage and leakage.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention provides a sealing cover with a quick-plug interface, which solves the problem that the metal material inside the quick-plug interface is in contact with fluid for a long time, which causes the corrosion of the metal material.

The fixing ring 4 is made of plastic material.


Preferably, a movable cap 6 is also provided, the outside (the outer surface) of the movable cap 6 is provided with a barb structure, and the movable cap is inlaid with the inner wall of the fixing sleeve 5 by means of the barb structure.


Preferably, a circle of claw elastic pieces 7 is arranged in the fixing sleeve 5, and the bottom of the movable cap 6 collides with the claw elastic pieces 7.


Preferably, the tops of the movable cap 6 and the fixing sleeve 5 are all provided with a circle of “L” shaped connecting sections respectively.


Preferably, the inner wall of the cover body 1 is provided with a threaded structure, for screwing with bottle body;

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

In order to better understand the technical scheme of the present invention, the embodiments provided by the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.


As shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, it can be understood that the present embodiment provides a sealing cover with quick-plug interface, comprising: cover body 1, above which a through hole 2 is arranged, and in which communication hole 9 is arranged, and the through hole 2 is connected with the communication hole 9; an annular sealing member 3 and an annular fixing sleeve 5 are arranged in the through hole 2, and the sealing member 3 is arranged at the bottom of the through hole 2, and the fixing sleeve 5 is arranged above the sealing member 3; the sealing member 3 and the fixing sleeve 5 are both clipped to the inner wall of the through hole 2, i.e. the sealing member 3 and the fixing sleeve 5 are both stuck in the inner wall of the through hole 2. The inner wall of the through hole 2 is provided with a first groove, and the outside of the sealing member 3 is provided with a corresponding protrusion, and the sealing member 3 is clipped to the through hole 2 by means of the first groove and the protrusion. The inner wall of the through hole 2 is also provided with a second groove, and the outside of the fixing sleeve 5 is provided with a barb structure, and the barb structure is clipped in the second groove.


A fixing ring 4 is arranged above the sealing member 3, and the lower part of the fixing sleeve 5 is connected with the fixing ring 4; the upper part of the inner wall of the sealing member 3 is provided with a circle of third groove, and a circle of “L” shaped connecting section protrudes from the lower part of the fixing ring 4, and the connecting section is clipped in the third groove of the inner wall of the sealing member 3; the sealing member 3 is made of flexible material, and the fixing ring 4 is made of plastic material.


In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, the through hole 2 is used to insert the pipeline for fluid transportation, and is continuous connected with the communication hole. It is inevitable to contact fluids with a certain pressure or corrosiveness in use. In order to prevent the parts in contact with the fluid from being corroded, in this embodiment, the sealing member 3 is made of rubbermaterial, and the fixing ring 4 is made of plastic material. In other embodiments, the sealing member 3 and the fixing ring 4 can be made of other anti-corrosion materials. The “L” shaped connecting section in the lower part of the fixing ring 4 protrudes in the third groove of the inner wall of the sealing member 3, and is firmly nested with the sealing member 3 to support the sealing member 3 to maintain the shape thereof. In other embodiments, the nesting manner of the sealing member 3 and the fixing ring 4 is not limited.


The sealing cover with quick-plug interface provided by the present embodiment also comprises a movable cap 6, the outside of the movable cap 6 is provided with a barb structure, and the movable cap is inlaid with the inner wall of the fixing sleeve 5 by means of the barb structure. A circle of claw elastic pieces 7 is arranged in the fixing sleeve 5, and the bottom of the movable cap 6 collides with the claw elastic pieces 7. The tops of the movable cap 6 and the fixing sleeve 5 are both provided with a circle of “L” shaped connecting sections respectively.


In the present embodiment, the outside of the fixing sleeve 5 is a barb structure, which is pressed into the second groove of the inner wall of the through hole 2, and the movable cap 6 is installed and embedded in the fixing sleeve 5 by utilizing an external reverse buckle structure. In this embodiment, the fixing sleeve 5 and the through hole 2, and the movable cap 6 and the fixing sleeve 5 are all nested and fixed by means of using a reverse buckle structure respectively, and in other embodiments, they can also be fixed in other ways. The product components of the prior art rely on threaded connection during the assembly, connection and sealing process, which has high component cost, low efficiency and high cost. In this embodiment, the inner sealing member 3 is fixed by a reverse buckle structure, which minimizes the number of internal accessories, reduces the cost, reduces air leakage points and improves assembly efficiency.


As shown in FIG. 4, claw elastic pieces 7 are arranged in the fixing sleeve 5, which is used for clamping pipeline, concretely, pipeline is inserted and passes through the movable cap 6, claw elastic pieces 7 and fixing ring 4 until it is finally inserted into the sealing member 3 to the bottom. At this time, due to the elastic force of the claw elastic pieces 7, the pipeline is clipped and fixed; the fixing ring 4 plays a guiding role, and the sealing member 3 forms a coating effect on the pipeline to keep the seal. The sealing member 3 and the fixing ring 4 are made of rubber materials and plastic materials respectively, and can be in contact with corrosive fluid for a long time. When the pipeline needs to be pulled out, the movable cap 6 is pressed down so as to press down the claw elastic pieces 7, so that the surface of the pipeline and the claw are separated and loosened, and the pipeline can be pulled out smoothly.


As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the cover body 1 in the present embodiment is made of plastic material and is integrally injection molded, and the inner wall of the cover body 1 is provided with a threaded structure for screwing with the bottle body; the bottom of the threaded structure is provided with a sealing ring 8 for connecting and sealing with the bottle opening. In this embodiment, the number of through holes 2 above the cover body 1 is two. In other embodiments, the number of through holes 2 can be one, three, etc. as required, which is not limited here.


The sealing cover with a quick-plug interface provided by the embodiment of the present invention has been described in detail above. For those skilled in the art, according to the idea of the embodiment of the present invention, there will be changes in the specific implementation and application scope. To sum up, the contents of this description should not be construed as limitations to the present invention.
