When an element is referred to as being "connected" to another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or intervening elements may also be present. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and the like as used herein are for illustrative purposes only and do not denote a single embodiment.

Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs. The terminology used in the description of the invention herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. As used herein, the term "and/or" includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

In this specification, the direction of the sprayer according to the embodiment of the present invention, which is away from the ground in the normal use state, is defined as "front", and the opposite direction is defined as "rear", or the direction which is directed toward or faces the ground is defined as "rear". More specifically, an upward direction illustrated in fig. 1 is defined as "up", and a downward direction illustrated in fig. 1 is defined as "down".

It should be noted that the definitions of the directions in the present specification are only for convenience of describing the technical solution of the present invention, and do not limit the directions of the sprayer of the embodiments of the present invention in other scenarios, including but not limited to use, test, transportation, and manufacture, which may cause the orientation of the sprayer to be reversed or the position of the sprayer to be changed.

As shown in fig. 1, the sprayer according to the embodiment of the present invention mainly includes two main parts, i.e., a main body 1 and a barrel 2. The two are detachably connected through a connecting piece 3.

The main body 1 may include a housing 101, and a gas generation mechanism housed in the housing 101 for generating high-pressure gas. The connecting piece 3 can be matched and connected with the air outlet end of the gas generating mechanism. As shown in fig. 3, the connecting member 3 is a hollow rod-shaped structure, and has an air guide channel 302, which is communicated with the air outlet end of the gas generating mechanism and the cylinder 2, and is used for guiding the high-pressure gas generated by the gas generating mechanism into the cylinder 2 to apply pressure to the liquid in the cylinder 2, so that the liquid is sprayed out through a spray pipe or a spray head connected with the cylinder 2.

In a possible embodiment, the gas generating mechanism may be a manually operated structure, and includes a manual air pump, an air outlet of the manual air pump forms an air outlet end of the gas generating mechanism, and a piston rod of the manual air pump may be connected to the operating member. When the gas generating device is used, an operator kneads the operating piece to drive the piston to move in the piston cylinder, and high-pressure gas is generated.

Of course, the gas generating mechanism is not limited to the above-described manually operated type, and may be an electrically driven type. Specifically, as shown in fig. 1, the electrically driven structure may include a motor 102, and an air pump 103 (an electrically driven air pump) rotationally driven by the motor 102, wherein an air outlet of the electrically driven air pump 103 forms an air outlet end of the air generating mechanism. The air outlet end can be connected with a switching elbow 108, the upper end of the connecting piece 3 can be provided with a plug-in connector 303, and the plug-in connector 303 can be plugged into the switching elbow 108, so that the air outlet end of the electric air pump 103 is communicated with the cylinder 2. Further, a speed reduction mechanism 104 (e.g., gears of different diameters) and a slider-crank mechanism 105 may be provided between the motor 102 and the air pump 103 so as to convert the high-speed rotational motion of the motor 102 into the low-speed linear reciprocating motion of the piston of the air pump 103.

Further, a battery pack engaging portion 109 may be provided on the housing 101 for detachably connecting the battery pack. The housing 101 may house a control module that is electrically connected to the motor 102, the battery pack interface 109, and a microswitch provided on the housing 101. The control module can generate an on-off signal for controlling the start and stop of the motor 102 based on the trigger of the micro switch, and load the on-off signal into the driving information to be transmitted to the motor 102 so as to control the motor 102 to run or stop.

In addition, a pressure sensor 106 connected with the control module for detecting the gas pressure in the cylinder 2 may be provided in the main body 1, and a detection passage 107 of the pressure sensor 106 may communicate with the inner space of the cylinder 2 through a transfer elbow 108. When the pressure sensor 106 detects that the air pressure in the cylinder 2 exceeds the set upper limit threshold, the control module controls the motor 102 to stop rotating, and the pressure in the cylinder 2 stops being continuously increased. After the spraying operation is started for a certain time, the pressure in the cylinder body 2 is reduced. When the pressure sensor 106 detects that the air pressure in the cylinder 2 is reduced to a set lower limit threshold, the control module controls the motor 102 to operate, and the air pressure is supplemented into the cylinder 2.

The barrel 2 can be provided with a pressure relief valve which can be directly arranged on the side wall of the barrel 2 or on the spray pipe. After the spraying operation is finished, residual pressure exists in the cylinder body 2, and the pressure can be relieved through the manually operated pressure relief valve. So as to avoid the occurrence of the burst accident between the main body 1 and the cylinder 2 due to the high pressure in the cylinder 2 when the main body and the cylinder 2 are disassembled subsequently.

The connecting piece 3 plays the effect of intercommunication gas production mechanism and barrel 2 on the one hand, and on the other hand is used for realizing being connected of host computer 1 and barrel 2. One end (upper end) of the connecting piece 3 is connected with the gas outlet end of the gas generating mechanism, and the other end (lower end) extends to the outside of the shell 101 and is used for being connected with the cylinder 2.

The barrel 2 is provided with a connector 201 for the connector 3 to penetrate. The connection port 201 has an axial direction, and as shown in fig. 1 and 2, the connection port 201 may be provided at the upper end of the cylinder 2, and the axial direction may be the vertical direction as illustrated in fig. 1 and 2. The outer diameter of the connecting piece 3 is not larger than the caliber of the connecting port 201, so that the connecting piece 3 can be movably arranged in the connecting port 201 in a penetrating way, can move up and down in the connecting port 201 along the axial direction and can also rotate in the connecting port 201 around the axial direction.

In this embodiment, the connector 3 may be fixed to the main unit 1 in the circumferential and axial directions. And, the lower end of the connection member 3 may extend to the outside of the main unit 1. Thus, the operator only needs to hold the housing 101 of the main body 1 and apply a rotational force or a pressing force to the housing 101, and the connecting member 3 can be driven to rotate or move axially in the connecting port 201.

For make a host computer 1 can with the barrel 2 looks adaptations of multiple different models for a host computer 1 can be applicable to a plurality of barrels 2, the embodiment of the utility model provides a realize with the help of external stopping mechanism 10 that host computer 1 is connected with dismantling of barrel 2. In the present embodiment, the model of the cylinder 2 may include the specification (including volume, height, maximum radial dimension, and the like), capacity, and the diameter of the connection port 201 of the cylinder 2. Generally, the diameters of the connection ports 201 disposed in the different types of the cylinders 2 are different. However, the caliber of the connecting port 201 of the cylinder 2 of different models matched with the same main machine 1 is not larger than the outer diameter of the connecting piece 3. Thereby, the connecting element 3 can be moved or rotated in the connecting opening 201 of the cylinders 2.

As shown in fig. 3 and 4, the outer wall of the connecting member 3 may be provided with a first retaining portion 301, one end (lower end as shown in fig. 1) of the retaining mechanism 10 may be detachably connected to the cylinder 2, and the other end (upper end as shown in fig. 1) may be provided with a second retaining portion 1002 engageable with the first retaining portion 301. When the retaining mechanism 10 is connected to the cylinder 2, it is fixed to the cylinder 2 at least in the axial direction (the vertical direction as illustrated in fig. 1). When the connecting piece 3 is in the working position in the connecting port 201, the first stopping portion 301 and the second stopping portion 1002 cooperate to restrain the connecting piece 3 from moving in the connecting port 201 in a direction away from the cylinder 2.

Thus, after the connecting element 3 is driven to move to the working position in the axial direction in the connecting port 201 of the cylinder 2 by operating the main body 1, the retaining mechanism 10 and the cylinder 2 are fixed at least in the axial direction, and the first retaining portion 301 and the second retaining portion 1002 cooperate to restrain the connecting element 3 from moving in the connecting port 201 in the direction away from the cylinder 2. Thus, the connector 3 is fixed to the connection port 201 by the retaining mechanism 10 and is maintained at the operating position without being detached from the connection port 201.

And, because the retaining mechanism 10 is detachably connected with the cylinder 2. Therefore, when the host 1 is required to be matched with the cylinder 2 of other models, the stopping mechanism 10 is only required to be detached from the current cylinder 2 and then connected to the cylinder 2 to be replaced, and the position of the connecting piece 3 in the connecting port 201 of the other cylinder 2 can be fixed, so that the host 1 and the cylinder 2 of different models can be matched and installed. Therefore, one host 1 can be adapted to the cylinder bodies 2 of various models, and the universality of the host 1 is improved.

When the connecting piece 3 moves axially in the connecting port 201, the connecting piece 3 can move relative to the retaining mechanism 10 at the same time, and then the first retaining portion 301 arranged on the connecting piece 3 and the second retaining portion 1002 arranged on the retaining mechanism 10 can be driven to move mutually, so that the matching is realized. The engagement of the first and

second backstop portions

301 and 1002 inhibits upward movement of the connector 3 after the connector 3 has been moved to the operative position in the connection port 201.

As shown in fig. 4 and 7, in the present embodiment, the retaining mechanism 10 may include an adaptor 4 detachably connected to the cylinder 2 and a retaining member 5 connected to the adaptor 4. Wherein the second retaining portion 1002 is provided on the retaining member 5. Further, the retaining member 5 may be connected with a retaining ring 7, and the second retaining portion 1002 may be provided on an inner wall of the retaining ring 7.

The adapter 4 can be connected to the cylinder 2 by means of a special construction of the cylinder 2. Specifically, as shown in fig. 1 and fig. 2, the can body 2 may include a can body 202, a bottleneck structure 203 disposed on the can body 202 and necking radially inward, and a spout structure 204 disposed on the bottleneck structure 203 and expanding radially outward; the connection port 201 may be formed in the bottleneck structure 203. As shown in fig. 5, the end of the adaptor 4 opposite to the backstop 5 can be connected with a snap ring 6, and the snap ring 6 can be detachably sleeved outside the bottle neck structure 203 and abuts against the lower end of the spout structure 204. Thus, when the snap ring 6 is sleeved outside the bottleneck structure 203, the barrel 202 and the spout structure 204 can axially limit the position.

To realize the detachable connection of the adaptor 4 and the cylinder 2, the snap ring 6 may include a plurality of fan rings 601, and the fan rings 601 may be joined together to form the snap ring 6. In order to avoid interference between the adaptor 4 and the spout structure 204, the adaptor 4 may include a radial adaptor portion 401 correspondingly connected to the plurality of fan rings 601, and an axial adaptor portion 402 correspondingly connected to the plurality of radial adaptor portions 401, and the axial adaptor portion 402 and the retaining member 5 are fixedly connected at least along the axial direction.

As shown in fig. 4 and 7, the adaptor 4 may be substantially in a zigzag shape or an "L" shape, the radial adaptor portion 401 may extend radially, an outer end thereof may be located outside the edge of the spout structure 204, and the axial adaptor portion 402 may be located at an outer end of the radial adaptor portion 401. Preferably, the radial transition portion 401 and the axial transition portion 402 are integrally configured, and specifically, the outer end of the radial transition portion 401 may be bent upward to form the axial transition portion 402. Thereby, interference of the adaptor 4 with the spout structure 204 can be avoided.

The number of the fan rings 601 can be set according to practical situations, the central angle of each fan ring 601 can be 360/n degrees, and n is the number of the fan rings 601. Thus, when the fan rings 601 are combined, a complete ring 6 with a circular ring structure can be formed. The number of adapters 4 is equal to the number of sector rings 601, and the sector rings 601 are respectively provided at the end portions of the radial adapters 401 facing away from the axial adapter 402, i.e., the inner ends. Thus, the adapters 4 clip the fan rings 601 around the bottle neck 203 of the barrel 2 to define the clip ring 6. And the plurality of fan rings 601 are disassembled from the bottleneck structure 203 of the cylinder body 2, so that the adapter 4 and the cylinder body 2 can be disassembled.

As shown in fig. 6, the retaining member 5 may be rod-shaped, and the number of the retaining member may also be multiple and equal to the number of the axial adaptor portions 402. The retaining pieces 5 are connected with the outer wall of the retaining ring 7, and the retaining pieces 5 are uniformly distributed along the circumferential direction. The retaining piece 5 and the axial adapter part 402 are fixed at least along the axial direction, so that the adapter piece 4 can be fixed by the barrel 2 and the retaining piece 5 along the axial direction, and the adapter piece 4 can be used as an axial fixing piece to axially fix the connecting piece 3.

Of course, the retaining element 5 can also be plate-shaped, and the plate-shaped retaining element 5 can be provided with an opening in which the retaining ring 7 can be arranged. Alternatively, in the case where the retainer 5 has a plate shape and the retainer 5 is provided with an opening, the second retainer portion 1002 may be provided directly on the inner wall of the opening without providing the retainer ring 7 in the opening.

In order to freely switch the fan rings 601 between the closed state and the disassembled state, the adaptor 4 may be detachably connected to the retaining member 5, or the adaptor 4 may be rotated outward relative to the retaining member 5.

As shown in fig. 6, in a possible embodiment, the adaptor 4 and the retaining member 5 may be detachably connected in such a manner that the retaining member 5 is provided with a mounting hole 502 for the axial adaptor portion 402 to pass through, and a first pin hole communicated with the mounting hole 502. The mounting hole 502 may be a through hole penetrating the upper and lower surfaces of the retainer 5, and the first pin hole may be a blind hole penetrating the outer wall surface of the retainer 5 and in butt communication with the mounting hole 502. The first pin hole is provided with a pin 503 in a pluggable manner, and the pin 503 is inserted into the mounting hole 502 through the axial adapter 402 and tightly abuts against the side wall of the axial adapter 402, so that the axial adapter 402 is fixed in the mounting hole 502. And the pin 503 is pulled out from the first pin hole, and the axial adapter 402 can be pulled out from the mounting hole 502, so that the adapter 4 and the backstop 5 can be detached.

In this embodiment, the mounting hole 502 may be further opened toward the outside. In this way, the axial adaptor 402 can enter the mounting hole 502 through the outer opening and can move horizontally in the mounting hole 502, thereby adapting to the bottleneck structures 203 with different outer diameters of different cylinders 2.

Alternatively, in addition to the above embodiments, the axial adapter 402 may be provided with a second pin hole therein, and the second pin hole may be a through hole penetrating through left and right side walls of the axial adapter 402. When the axial adapter 402 is inserted into the mounting hole 502, the second pin hole corresponds to the first pin hole, and the pin 503 is inserted into the first pin hole and the second pin hole. Thus, the axial adaptor 402 is inserted into the mounting hole 502, the second pin hole is aligned with the first pin hole, and then the pin 503 is inserted into the second pin hole and the first pin hole, so that the retaining member 5 and the adaptor 4 can be assembled. The pin 503 is pulled out from the second pin hole and the first pin hole, and the axial adapter 402 can be pulled out from the mounting hole 502, so that the two are detached.

As shown in fig. 6, the pin 503 may be a U-shaped pin having two opposing parallel prongs. The number of the first pin holes and the number of the second pin holes may correspond to two, and the two pin forks of the pin 503 may be respectively inserted into the two first pin holes and the two second pin holes.

When the barrel 2 connected with the host 1 needs to be replaced, the pin shaft 503 can be pulled out, and the adapter 4 and the backstop 5 are detached and separated. Subsequently, the adaptor 4 can be removed, so that the fan ring 601 connected to the inner end of the radial adaptor 401 is separated from the bottleneck structure 203 of the cylinder 2, thereby realizing the detachment of the adaptor 4 from the cylinder 2.

In another embodiment, the rotation connection between the retaining member 5 and the adaptor member 4 may be performed by providing a gap at the outer end of the retaining member 5, and inserting the upper end of the axial adaptor portion 402 into the gap and connecting the upper end of the axial adaptor portion to the outer end of the retaining member 5 through a rotating shaft. The adaptor 4 is pulled outwards, and the adaptor 4 can rotate around the rotating shaft, so that the fan ring 601 connected to the end part of the adaptor is far away from the bottleneck structure 203 of the cylinder body 2, and the clamping ring 6 and the bottleneck structure 203 are detached.

As shown in fig. 3 and 4, in one possible embodiment, the first stopping portion 301 may be an external thread formed on the outer wall of the connecting member 3, and the second stopping portion 1002 may be an internal thread formed on the inner wall of the stopping ring 7. In this way, the connecting member 3 can be rotated in the circumferential direction and moved axially in the connecting port 201 synchronously with the rotation of the connecting member 3 by the screwing motion between the threads.

When the main unit 1 is required to be connected with the cylinder 2, an operator can hold the shell 101 of the main unit 1 and apply a rotating acting force to the shell 101 to drive the connecting piece 3 to rotate along the upper buckling direction. During rotation, the connecting element 3 is moved axially downwards in the connecting opening 201 by screwing action of the thread. And stopping rotating after the connecting piece 3 axially moves to the proper position, namely, the working position is reached. At this time, the coupling member 3 is axially restrained or fixed by the screw engagement of the coupling member 3 and the retaining mechanism 10, and the coupling member 3 is maintained at the operating position.

When the cartridge 2 needs to be replaced, the housing 101 is rotated in the reverse direction, causing the connector 3 to rotate in the shackle direction. Accordingly, during rotation, the connecting element 3 is displaced axially upwards in the connecting opening 201. When the connecting piece 3 is completely separated from the connecting port 201, the retaining mechanism 10 is detached from the cylinder 2. Subsequently, the retaining mechanism 10 is attached to the cylinder 2 to be replaced. And then the step of fastening is carried out, namely the assembly of the main machine 1 and the other cylinder 2 is completed.

The fine thread has good self-locking performance and better vibration and looseness resistance. Thus, in embodiments where the backstop is threaded, the internal and external threads are preferably fine threads to reduce the risk of loosening and backing out of the connection port 201 when the connection member 3 is in the operative position.

The above is an embodiment in which the retaining portion is threaded, and in this embodiment, the axial movement of the connecting member 3 can be achieved by rotating the connecting member 3 and screwing the threads together. Of course, the retaining portion is not limited to the embodiment using the screw thread, and in another possible embodiment, the first retaining portion 301 may be a first retaining tooth formed on an outer wall of the coupling member 3 and extending obliquely downward, and the second retaining portion 1002 may be a second retaining tooth formed on an inner wall of the retaining ring 7 and extending obliquely downward.

The first retaining tooth can move downwards relative to the second retaining tooth, and the first retaining tooth and the second retaining tooth are meshed or meshed with each other to limit the upward movement of the first retaining tooth relative to the second retaining tooth. In this way, the connecting element 3 can be moved downwards relative to the retaining mechanism 10, with an axial downward movement in the connecting opening 201 being achieved.

The retaining part adopts a retaining tooth structure, so that the connecting piece 3 can only move in one direction relative to the retaining mechanism 10, namely the connecting piece 3 can only move downwards but cannot move upwards. For making two backstop teeth can be realized dismantling, the backstop ring 7 of injecing the second backstop tooth can adopt detachable mosaic structure. Specifically, the anti-backing ring 7 can comprise a plurality of splicing ring bodies, the inner wall of each splicing ring body is provided with anti-backing teeth, and the splicing ring bodies can be spliced together to form the anti-backing ring 7. The plurality of split ring bodies may be maintained in a split state by circumferential fixing members such as hoops.

When it is necessary to connect the main unit 1 and the cylinder 2, the operator may hold the housing 101 of the main unit 1 and apply a downward pressing force to the housing 101. The connecting element 3 can be moved downwards through the anti-slip ring 7. And stopping pressing after the connecting piece 3 axially moves to the proper position, namely, the working position is reached. At this time, the connecting piece 3 is axially limited or fixed by means of the meshing action of the first stopping teeth and the second stopping teeth, so that the connecting piece 3 is maintained at the working position.

When the cylinder 2 needs to be replaced, the circumferential fixing member of the check ring 7 is released, and the check ring 7 is detached. At this time, the first stopping tooth loses the engagement effect of the second stopping tooth on the connecting piece, that is, the connecting piece 3 loses the axial limiting or fixing effect of the stopping mechanism 10 on the connecting piece, so that the connecting piece 3 can be axially and upwardly pulled out of the connecting port 201. Subsequently, the retaining mechanism 10 can be detached from the cylinder 2. The retaining mechanism 10 is then connected to the cartridge 2 to be replaced. And then the pressing step is carried out, namely the assembly of the main machine 1 and the other cylinder 2 is completed.

Bearing the above description, in the embodiment of the present invention, the main body 1 is adapted to a plurality of different barrels 2, and the outer diameter of the connecting member 3 is not larger than the diameter of the connecting port 201 of the barrel 2. Therefore, after the connecting piece 3 is positioned in the connecting port 201, a gap exists between the connecting piece 3 and the connecting port 201, and the operating principle of the sprayer requires that the cylinder 2 has better air tightness. Therefore, in order to solve the problem of sealing the joint of the connecting piece 3 and the connecting port 201, a sealing piece 8 is arranged outside the connecting piece 3, and the sealing piece 8 seals the gap between the connecting piece 3 and the connecting port 201 when the connecting piece 3 is in the working position.

As shown in fig. 8, the sealing member 8 is in the shape of a ring made of a flexible sealing material (e.g., rubber). In order to limit the sealing element 8 so that it can be pressed and deformed uniformly in the circumferential direction, a pressing block 9 can be used to limit it. Specifically, the pressing block 9 is annular or ring-shaped and can be sleeved outside the connecting piece 3. When the connecting element 3 is in the operating position, the pressure piece 9 can press the sealing element 8 between the pressure piece 9 and the connecting opening 201.

Further, the pressing block 9 has a substantially inverted "convex" structure, which may include a necking portion 901 and a circumferential expansion flange 902 located above the necking portion 901, and the sealing member 8 may be sleeved outside the necking portion 901 and abut against a lower end of the circumferential expansion flange 902. The surface of the circumferential expansion flange 902 that contacts the seal 8 forms a stop or stop surface so that the seal 8 is in face contact with the circumferential expansion flange 902. When the connecting element 3 moves downwards in the connecting port 201 until the circumferential expansion flange 902 contacts the connecting port 201, the pressing piece 9 is compressed downwards, and then the stop surface or the limiting surface compresses the sealing element 8, so that uniform compression deformation of the sealing element 8 can be realized.

Likewise, the pressure piece 9 can also be made of a flexible sealing material. The radial dimension of the circumferential expansion flange 902 is greater than the aperture of the attachment port 201, while the radial dimension of the necked-down portion 901 is no greater than the aperture of the attachment port 201, preferably slightly greater than the aperture of the attachment port 201. In this way, when the connector 3 is moved out of the working position in the connection port 201, the necked-down portion 901 is fitted into the connection port 201 to form an interference fit, the circumferential expansion flange 902 closes the outer end face of the connection port 201, and the sealing member 8 is compressed between the circumferential expansion flange 902 and the inner wall of the connection port 201, thereby forming a stable seal against the connection port 201.

In the embodiment in which the backstop is threaded, the connection element 3 is moved axially downwards in the connection opening 201 by a rotary movement. In one embodiment, the pressure piece 9 and the sealing element 8 are stationary relative to the connection port 201 when the connection element 3 is rotated circumferentially in the connection port 201. I.e. the pressure piece 9 and the sealing element 8 do not rotate with the connecting element 3. Thus, the sealing element 8 can be prevented from rubbing against the connecting port 201 when rotating together with the connecting element 3, and the problems of poor sealing effect and reduced service life caused by abrasion of the sealing element 8 can be avoided.

The pressing block 9 and the sealing member 8 may not rotate together with the connecting member 3, and the necking portion 901 of the pressing block 9 may be inserted into the connecting port 201 and may be in interference fit with each other. The pressing block 9 is provided with a through hole 903, and the connecting piece 3 is arranged in the through hole. The frictional force between the connection port 201 and the constricted portion 901 is larger than the frictional force between the connection member 3 and the through hole 903. In this way, the circumferential frictional force applied to the pressure block 9 by the connecting member 3 during rotation is overcome by the frictional force applied to the necked portion 901 by the connecting port 201. The pressure piece 9 thus remains stationary and does not rotate with the connecting piece 3.

Further, to limit the pressing block 9, as shown in fig. 3, the outer wall of the connecting member 3 may be provided with a pushing step 304 located above the pressing block 9, and the pushing step 304 abuts against the upper end surface of the circumferential expanding flange 902. In one embodiment, the pushing step 304 may be a part of the structure of the connecting member 3 itself, which may be a shoulder formed on the outer wall of the connecting member 3. Specifically, the connecting member 3 may be arranged in a segmented manner, and includes an upper segment with a larger outer diameter and a lower segment with a smaller outer diameter, the pressing block 9 may be sleeved on the lower segment, and a portion of the upper segment exceeding the lower segment forms the pushing step 304. Alternatively, in another embodiment, the pushing step 304 may be an additional separate component, and specifically may be a sleeve structure fixedly sleeved on the connecting member 3.

In practical application, the connecting member 3 is driven to move downwards in the connecting port 201 by rotating or pressing the housing 101, and the pushing step 304 moves downwards along with the connecting member. Until the lower end of the pushing step 304 pushes against the upper end face of the circumferential expansion flange 902, the connecting piece 3 continues to move downwards, the pushing force applied by the pushing step 304 to the circumferential expansion flange 902 is gradually increased until the connecting piece 3 moves to the working position, the necking part 901 is pushed downwards to be pressed into the connecting port 201, and the sealing piece 8 is tightly pressed between the circumferential expansion flange 902 and the connecting port 201, so that the sealing of a gap between the connecting piece 3 and the connecting port 201 is realized.
