DETAILED DESCRIPTION
First Embodiment
As indicated in Figure 1 to Figure 4, the example provides a kind of sealing device comprising a base 1 and a cover 3.
The upper end la of base 1 has a mating hole 2 with internal thread 10, the lower end 3 a of cover 3 has an extension part 4 with external thread 7.
Base 1 and cover 3 are connected by thread through mating hole 2 and extension part 4.
The extension part 4 has a baffle 8 inside, and there is a lug 11 on baffle 8. During the use, rotating the lug 11 can open the cover 3, and the lower end face 15 of cover 3 has a ring slot, and there is a seal ring 5 in the ring slot.
The edge 16 of the upper end la of base 1 has a lower connecting hole 9, and upper end face 17 of cover 3 has a connecting hole 6.
The upper connecting hole 6 and the lower connecting hole 9 are connected to each other through connecting piece.
In order to effectively seal up the mating hole 2, prevent the materials in the container from suffering external contaminants, increase the safety and reliability of logistics, the edge 16 of the upper end la of base 1 has one lower connecting hole 9.
The upper connecting hole 6 is placed on the edge 18 of cover 3 in a loop. The number of upper connecting hole 6 are 12, and cover 3 and base 1 are sealed up through the connecting piece which is preferably according to one embodiment a lead sealing or a bolt according to another embodiment.
In order to increase the sealing effect, the shape of the contact face 14 between seal ring 5 and base 1 is designed as an arch.
During the use, the air within the arch is squeezed to make seal ring 5 be absorbed on the edge 16 of the upper end lb of base 1 more tightly.
Working process of the example
During the use, first screw down the thread on extension part 4 of cover 3 and mating hole 2 of base 1, and completely compress the seal ring 5 on the edge 16 of upper end lb of base 1 to increase the sealing effect. After this, use connecting piece to seal up the gap between the upper connecting hole 6 on cover 3 and the lower connecting hole 9 on the edge 16 of upper end la of base 1.
The mating hole 2 cannot be opened before final receipt of the container or the user can open it by using a screw-type cap opener.
Second Embodiment
As indicated in Figure 5 to Figure 6, the example provides a kind of sealing device consisting base 1 and cover 3. The upper end lb of base 1 has a mating hole 2 with internal thread 10, the lower end of cover 3 has an extension part 4 with external thread 7.
Base 1 and cover 3 are connected by thread through mating hole 2 and extension part 4.
The extension part 4 has a baffle 8 inside, and there is a lug 11 on baffle 8.
During the use, rotating the lug 11 can open the cover 3, and the lower end face 15 of cover 3 has a ring slot, and there is a seal ring 5 in the ring slot. The edge 16 of the upper end lb of base 1 has a lower connecting hole 9, and upper end face 17 of cover 3 has an upper connecting hole 6. The upper connecting hole 6 and the lower connecting hole 9 are connected to each other through a connecting piece.
In order to effectively seal up the mating hole 2, prevent the materials in the container from suffering external contaminants, increase the safety and reliability of logistics, the edge 16 of the upper end lb of base 1 has four lower connecting holes 9.
The upper connecting holes 6 are placed on the edge 18 of cover 3 in a loop. The number of upper connecting hole 6 are 12, and cover 3 and base 1 are locked up through the connecting piece which is preferably according to one embodiment a bolt or a lead sealing according to another embodiment.
In order to increase the sealing effect, the shape of the contact face 14 between seal ring 5 and base 1 is designed as an arch. During the use, the air within the arch is squeezed to make seal ring 5 be absorbed on the edge of the upper end of base 1 more tightly.
Working process of the example
During the use, first screw down the thread on extension part 4 of cover 3 and mating hole 2 of base 1, and completely compress the seal ring 5 on the edge 16 of upper end lb of base 1 to increase the sealing effect. After this, use a bolt to lock up the upper connecting hole 6 on cover 3 and the lower connecting hole 9 on the edge 16 of upper end lb of base 1.
The filling hole cannot be opened before final receipt of the container or the user can open it by using a screw-type cap opener.
Using the above mentioned technical proposal can completely improve the damping effect, increase the universality, create different damps, make clear the flow and flow direction of the hydraulic oil, relieve the pressure within the shock absorber, and prolong the useful life of the sealing piece.
The sealing device 100 is simple in structure and with low processing cost. Those skilled in the art will obviously appreciate that a number of changes and variants may be made to the above described insulated glazing and Venetian blind system, to fulfill particular requirements, without departure from the scope of the invention, as defined in the following claims.
