以下、本発明の管継手の実施形態を図面に基づいて説明する。
図1は、本発明の第1実施形態に係る管継手を示す断面図である。図1において、管継手1は、合成樹脂(PFA等)製のチューブ6の先端部の外周側に装着される合成樹脂製の継手本体2と、この継手本体2の軸方向両端部の外周側に装着される合成樹脂(PFA等)製の一対のユニオンナット(管継手用ナット)3とを備えている。
なお、本明細書においては、継手本体2の軸方向中央から軸方向両側に向かう方向を軸方向外方(軸方向外側)といい、継手本体2の軸方向両側から軸方向中央に向かう方向を軸方向内方(軸方向内側)という。
Hereinafter, an embodiment of a pipe joint of the present invention is described based on a drawing.
FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view showing a pipe joint according to the first embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 1, a pipe joint 1 includes a synthetic resin joint body 2 mounted on the outer peripheral side of a distal end portion of a tube 6 made of synthetic resin (PFA or the like), and an outer peripheral side of both axial ends of the joint main body 2. And a pair of union nuts (nuts for pipe fittings) 3 made of synthetic resin (PFA or the like).
In this specification, the direction from the axial center of the joint body 2 toward both axial sides is referred to as axially outward (axially outside), and the direction from the both axial sides of the joint body 2 toward the axial center. It is called axially inward (axially inner).

継手本体2は、PVC、PP、PE又はフッ素樹脂(PAF又はPTFE等)の合成樹脂材料によって、円筒状に形成されている。継手本体2の軸方向外側の端部には受口部21が形成されており、この受口部21の内周に、チューブ6の先端部内周に無理嵌めされたインナーリング4が嵌合されるようになっている。これにより、継手本体2の軸方向外側の端部を、チューブ6の先端部の外周に装着することができる。受口部21の外周には、雄ねじ部22が形成されている。   The joint body 2 is formed in a cylindrical shape by a synthetic resin material such as PVC, PP, PE, or fluororesin (PAF or PTFE or the like). A receiving portion 21 is formed at the end of the joint body 2 in the axial direction, and the inner ring 4 that is forcibly fitted to the inner periphery of the distal end portion of the tube 6 is fitted to the inner periphery of the receiving portion 21. It has become so. Thereby, the axially outer end of the joint body 2 can be attached to the outer periphery of the distal end of the tube 6. A male screw portion 22 is formed on the outer periphery of the receiving portion 21.

ユニオンナット3は、継手本体2と同様に、PVC、PP、PE又はフッ素樹脂(PAF又はPTFE等)の合成樹脂材料によって、円筒状に形成されている。ユニオンナット3の内径はチューブ6の外径よりも大きく形成されており、チューブ6の先端部に継手本体2を装着する際に、ユニオンナット3にチューブ6の先端部が挿入されるようになっている。   The union nut 3 is formed in a cylindrical shape by a synthetic resin material such as PVC, PP, PE, or a fluororesin (PAF or PTFE or the like), like the joint body 2. The inner diameter of the union nut 3 is formed larger than the outer diameter of the tube 6, and when the joint body 2 is attached to the distal end portion of the tube 6, the distal end portion of the tube 6 is inserted into the union nut 3. ing.

ユニオンナット3は、軸方向外側の端部において径方向内方に突出して形成された押圧部31と、軸方向内側の端部の内周に形成された雌ねじ部32とを有している。雌ねじ部32は、継手本体2の雄ねじ部22に締め付け可能であり、この締め付けによってユニオンナット3を継手本体2に装着することができる。その際、ユニオンナット3の押圧部31における軸方向内側の端部が、インナーリング4によって径方向外側に膨らむチューブ6の膨出部6aを押圧するようになっている。   The union nut 3 has a pressing portion 31 formed to protrude radially inward at an end portion on the outer side in the axial direction, and a female screw portion 32 formed on the inner periphery of the end portion on the inner side in the axial direction. The female thread portion 32 can be tightened to the male thread portion 22 of the joint body 2, and the union nut 3 can be attached to the joint body 2 by this tightening. At that time, the axially inner end of the pressing portion 31 of the union nut 3 presses the bulging portion 6 a of the tube 6 bulging radially outward by the inner ring 4.

したがって、ユニオンナット3の雌ねじ部32を継手本体2の雄ねじ部22に締め付けることで、継手本体2の受口部21とチューブ6との装着箇所のシール性能を確保することができるとともに、チューブ6の抜け出しを防止することができる。
なお、チューブ6の先端部に対する継手本体2の装着構造は、上述のようにインナーリング4を用いたインナーリングタイプ以外に、フレアタイプやフェルールタイプなど他の装着構造としてもよい。
Therefore, by tightening the female thread portion 32 of the union nut 3 to the male thread portion 22 of the joint body 2, it is possible to ensure the sealing performance of the attachment portion between the receiving portion 21 of the joint body 2 and the tube 6, and the tube 6. Can be prevented from coming out.
In addition, the attachment structure of the joint main body 2 with respect to the front-end | tip part of the tube 6 is good also as other attachment structures, such as a flare type and a ferrule type, other than the inner ring type using the inner ring 4 as mentioned above.
