Definitions
- the invention relates to a connecting and connecting piece for corrugated pipes with at least one core cavity enclosed by a housing for receiving a pipe end, a connecting part, at the end of the housing facing away from the core cavity, a stop shoulder formed on the housing in the region of the connecting part with a sealing surface and a sealing arrangement .
- connection fittings for a flexible corrugated hose This connection fitting has a housing with a core cavity, one end of the corrugated hose or corrugated tube being pushed into this core cavity. An opening is also provided on the housing, into which a locking device is inserted and by means of which the end of the corrugated tube is held in the core cavity.
- a connecting part in the form of a screw connector is arranged, and at the rear end of this screw connector the housing has a stop shoulder with a sealing surface.
- This screw socket is used to connect the valve to this housing by screwing it into a threaded hole on a wall of a housing, or the screw socket is pushed through a hole and clamped on the inside with a nut.
- a seal In order to produce tight connections between the stop shoulder on the connection fitting and the wall of the housing, a seal must be inserted in a manner known per se. In order to withstand the relatively high screw-in forces, these tions consist of relatively pressure-resistant materials, for example hard paper. Seals of this type can only compensate for unevenness in the contact area to a limited extent, and they also have only a low elasticity or sealing tolerance, so that the sealing effect is eliminated if the threaded connection is only slightly relaxed.
- the fixed connection between the seal and the sealing surface on the stop shoulder of the housing has the advantage that the seal is always positioned in the correct position of the housing and cannot be lost.
- the seal is part of the housing and thus of the connecting and connecting piece, so that when using the connecting and connecting piece, or screwing it together with, for example, the wall of a housing There is always a tight connection between the connector and the part to which the corrugated pipe is to be connected.
- the connecting part on the housing of the connecting piece can be a screw socket with an external thread, or a socket with an internal thread, or a flange with fastening screws. Both the internal and external threads have the stop shoulder at the inner end of the thread and are either directed radially outwards or inwards.
- this itself forms the stop surface or sealing surface.
- the support elements which are formed on the sealing and stop surface on the housing, have the further advantage that the contact pressure generated by the screw connection does not have to be absorbed by the seal, but rather by means of these support elements on the stop shoulder and thus the housing of the connecting piece be transmitted. This results in a much greater freedom of choice for the materials of the seal, so that soft materials such as polyester elastomer can also be used. Due to the great elasticity of such seals, shape deviations, such as unevenness, in the area of the sealing surfaces and also changes in the contact pressures can be compensated for by vibrations. This results in a much better tightness and a higher security of the sealing arrangement.
- the height of the support elements in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the housing be made smaller than the thickness of the seal.
- the support elements have a width in the radial direction which is smaller than the width of the seal, so that a closed sealing ring is formed.
- the seal in the core cavity of the connecting and connecting piece is also firmly connected to the housing, so that here too there is the advantage that this inner seal is part of the housing and cannot be lost. Due to the firm connection along the inner shell of the core cavity, the shape of the seal is also retained, and the seal is not deformed or removed when the tube end is inserted or removed from the core cavity their sealing position removed.
- soft sealing materials are preferably used, which are suitable for a firm connection with the housing materials. For example, this is also a polyester elastomer.
- the fixed connection between the or the seals with the housing is formed on the contact surfaces by surface bonds.
- the housing is first manufactured, for example by injection molding, from plastic or metal or a combination of plastic and metal.
- the same materials are used as are already in use in the known connection fittings, for example as a plastic a polyamide and as a metal for example stainless steel.
- the seals are molded onto the prefabricated housing part, so that there is a two-component injection molded part and a firm surface connection results on the contact surfaces between the seal, or the seals and the housing.
- the arrangement of two pairs of support elements on the stop shoulder of the housing is advantageous since the symmetrical distribution with a distance of 90 ° each results in a uniform and distributed over the circumference.
- a connecting and connecting piece designed according to the invention simplifies handling and assembly, since no additional parts are necessary to ensure a tight connection, eg. B. according to the standard EN 60529, ie for water. Even if the lock, which holds the pipe end in the core cavity of the housing and secures it against being pulled out, is pre-assembled or connected to the housing, the result is practically a one-piece connecting and connecting piece, which can be easily installed without additional components and handling . Even with a temporary disassembly, they go Seals are not lost, and tightness is guaranteed after re-assembly.
- FIG. 1 shows a longitudinal section through a connecting and connecting piece according to the invention
- FIG. 2 shows the view of the connecting piece according to FIG. 1 from the side of the threaded connector.
- FIG. 1 shows a longitudinal section through a connecting and connecting piece 1 for corrugated pipes 2, one end of the corrugated pipe 2 being shown schematically.
- This end of the corrugated tube 2 is inserted into a core cavity 4 of a housing 3 of the connector 1 and is held there by locking elements, not shown, but known per se.
- This locking element is in one
- Opening 15 is radially inserted into housing 3 and engages with locking ribs in the troughs on corrugated tube 2. As a result, this is held in the housing 3 and locked against pulling out.
- a locking element is described for example in CH 645448.
- a connection part 5 is arranged on the housing 3 at the end facing away from the core cavity 4 in the direction of the longitudinal axis 11, which in the example shown is designed as a screw socket with an external thread.
- a substantially annular seal 7 is firmly connected to this sealing surface 8.
- the housing 3 is made of plastic and is produced using the injection molding process, polyamide being used as the material.
- the seal 7 is injection molded onto the housing 3 in a second operation, so that the desired firm connection between the seal 7 and the sealing surface 8 results.
- a polyester elastomer is used as the material, it also being possible to use all other plastics suitable for such seals.
- On the stop shoulder 6 8 support elements 9 and 10 are arranged on the sealing surface, which are formed directly on the housing 3 and therefore consist of polyamide. These support elements 9, 10 are less high than the thickness of the seal 7 in the direction of the longitudinal axis 11. As a result, the seal 7 projects beyond the support elements 9, 10 in the initial state and can be compressed. Also in the radial direction, the support elements are smaller than the width of the seal 7 or the sealing surface 8, so that the seal 7 is closed in a ring.
- connection piece t is screwed into a threaded bore with the screw connection 5, the contact forces are absorbed by the support elements 9 and 10 and not by the seal 7.
- the material of the seal 7 can thus be optimally matched to the sealing purpose, and a better and more reliable sealing effect is achieved.
- a seal 12 is also arranged, which forms part of a sealing arrangement between the corrugated tube 2 and the housing 3.
- This seal 12 is firmly connected to the inner jacket 14 of the core cavity 4 on the housing 3 via the outer jacket.
- This fixed connection is also produced by injecting the seal 12 into the housing 3 in a second operation.
- a polyester elastomer is also used as the material for the seal 12.
- the support elements 9 and 10 are arranged offset in pairs.
- the two support elements 9, which are diametrically opposed, are on the inside diameter of the stop shoulder 6, or the sealing surface 8 arranged.
- the two support elements 10 are also diametrically opposite, but are arranged on the outside diameter of the stop shoulder 6 and thus the sealing surface 8.
- the two support elements 10 are arranged in the direction of the circumference between the two support elements 9, so that there is a spacing angle of 90 ° between the support elements 9 and 10. This arrangement ensures an even distribution of the contact pressure and at the same time a secure support.
- a larger number of support elements 9 and 10 or another arrangement or larger elements can also be arranged. From Fig. 2 it can also be seen that the seal 7, despite the support elements 9 and 10, surrounds the screw socket or the connecting part 5 in an annular manner.
