Description

  The present invention relates to synthetic resin tubes as fluid transfer paths, or synthetic resin pipe joints that connect the tubes and fluid devices such as pumps, valves, filters, etc., in particular, semiconductor and liquid crystal display panel manufacturing, medical -This relates to pipe joints made of synthetic resin that can be used for piping of high-purity liquid, ultrapure water, chemical liquid, etc., handled in various technical fields of pharmaceutical manufacturing, food processing, and chemical industry.

  As this type of pipe joint, a tube joint disclosed in Patent Document 1 is known. That is, the tube 1 made of synthetic resin is forcibly pushed into the inner tube portion 5 of the joint body 4 made of synthetic resin, or the tube end portion 2 is expanded in advance as shown in FIG. After that, fit it into the inner tube. Then, a synthetic resin cap nut 6 fitted in advance to the tube is screwed into the joint body, so that the enlarged diameter root portion 2a of the tube is strongly attached to the tip 5A of the inner cylinder portion by the edge portion 6a of the cap nut. It is a structure which presses and seals between a tube and an inner cylinder part.

  As the structure similar to the above-described structure, those disclosed in FIGS. 8 and 9 of Patent Document 2 and the pipe joint disclosed in FIG. 6 of Patent Document 3 are known. As described above, the joint structure in which the tip of the tube is expanded (flared), fitted into the joint body, and fastened with a nut is the structure disclosed in FIG. 5 of Patent Document 2, FIG. 4 of Patent Document 3, and the like, Compared to a three-part tube fitting that has a tube end fitted to the inner ring of a dedicated part with an expanded outer diameter fitted into the tubular receiving port of the fitting body and is fastened with a nut, the joint body and the nut member have fewer parts (2 points) is advantageous in that a good sealing function can be obtained while economically constituting a pipe joint.

  However, in the conventional pipe joint composed of two parts as described above, the end of the tube is expanded and firmly fitted, and the base of the expanded diameter is tightened with a nut member. There is a tendency that it is relatively weak against the force of pulling out the tube from the joint body because it is for the purpose of removing the tube. In particular, when the pipe joint is formed of a synthetic resin having a large expansion coefficient such as a fluororesin so as to handle a high-temperature fluid of 100 ° C. or higher, the problem becomes more prominent.

Therefore, as disclosed in Patent Document 4, a pull-out-resistant means having a structure in which a C-shaped split ring is interposed between the tube enlarged portion and the nut member in a state of being fitted in the circumferential groove of the tube enlarged portion. It is known to provide a pipe joint that is strong not only for the sealing function but also for pulling out the tube. However, in the pipe joint disclosed in Patent Document 4, since the number of parts is increased from 2 parts to 1 part (split ring) to 3 parts, the economic efficiency that was originally possessed is impaired. New problems arise. Therefore, there is still room for improvement in order to make the pipe joint composed of the joint main body and the nut member strong against pulling out without incurring new problems.
