Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide high galling resistance by forming a pin side seal face and a coupling side seal face into a conical face, and setting the seal taper angle defined as the angle between the bus and tube axis larger o the coupling side than on the pin side. SOLUTION: The seal taper angle αc on a coupling 2 side is set larger than the seal taper angle αp on a pin 1 side. When the coupling 2 is coupled with the pin 1 and fastened under the existence of a seal interference quantity 10, a displacement in the radial direction occurs to negate the seal interference quantity 10. Since αc >αp , a pin side seal section 4 having weak rigidity is shrunk in diameter, a coupling side seal section 5 having strong rigidity is slightly expanded in diameter, αp and αc are changed to the approaching side to each other, and a nearly ideal seal state is obtained that a pin side seal face 4S and a coupling side seal face 5S are closely stuck together in the desired range when fastening is completed. The occurrence of galling caused by offset contact can be suppressed.

[0003] In order to be able to use under such severe conditions, the pipe joint section is required to be able to withstand a strong tensile load and at the same time to have a reliable sealing property (leak resistance). Conventionally, many proposals have been made in response to this demand. As shown in FIG. 5, with respect to the tensile load resistance, the male screw of the pin 1 on the pipe side (hereinafter referred to as a "steel pipe screw joint") is used. A predetermined joint tensile strength is secured by improving the thread shape, pitch, and the like of the threaded portion 3 composed of the portion 1a and the female threaded portion 2a of the coupling 2, while the male threaded portion 1a of the pin 1 The airtightness is secured by a seal portion (metal seal portion) 6 including a pin-side seal portion 4 provided at the leading end portion and a coupling-side seal portion 5 provided at the innermost portion of the coupling 2. .

That is, such a conventional steel pipe threaded joint is tightened with a high torque T in a specified range, and ideally, as shown in FIG. It is described that leak resistance can be ensured by generating a predetermined contact surface pressure P between the ring-side seal portion 5 and the ring-side seal portion 5.

However, what is shown in FIG. 6 is an ideal form, and this is not the case in practice. This is because the pin-side seal portion 4 of the conventional seal portion 6
As shown in FIG. 7, the coupling side seal portion 5 is formed such that each seal surface is formed into a convex and concave conical surface having the same apex angle (within dimensional tolerance), and further, a predetermined contact surface. In order to generate pressure, it is designed so as to have a predetermined seal diameter biting allowance (referred to as seal interference amount) 10 between the two in a virtual state where there is no contact surface pressure. In addition,
The half apex angle of the conical seal surface is called a seal taper angle, and the tangent (tan) of the seal taper angle is called a seal taper.
In the figures, the seal taper angles on the pin side and the coupling side are represented by α P and α C , respectively, and as described above, α P ≒ α C
It is.

And radial displacement occurs so that the seal interference amount 10 is canceled out.

In other words, a so-called "one-sided contact" occurs in which a strong contact is made only in a local area, not in the entire area. This not only lowers the sealing performance but also causes seizure called galling.

It is characterized by being designed to be. Needless to say, the design should be such that the magnitude relationship (α C > α P ) is maintained even when these seal taper angles α C and α P vary within the processing dimension tolerance.

Here, as in the prior art, a seal interference amount 10 is set, and in the presence of the seal interference amount 10, the coupling 2 is engaged with the pin 1 (the male screw portion 1a and the female screw portion 2a are screwed). When tightening, a radial displacement occurs such that the seal interference amount 10 is canceled, but in the present invention, α C > α
Since is P, and a weak pin side sealing portion 4 is reduced in diameter rigidity, at the same time as the diameter increases while the stiffness strong coupling sealing section 5 slightly, the alpha P and alpha C were changed to the side close to each other, Upon completion of the tightening, as shown in FIG. 3, a near-ideal sealing state in which the pin-side sealing surface 4S and the coupling-side sealing surface 5S adhere to each other in a desired range is obtained. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of galling due to one-side contact as shown in FIG.

Incidentally, the seal interference amount 10 has a lower limit corresponding to the amount of elastic deformation required to generate the seal surface pressure for ensuring leak resistance, and the tolerance taking into account the yield is set to this. By adding, the manufacturing tolerance range of the seal interference amount is determined. The central value of the manufacturing tolerance range is adopted as a representative value (nominal value) of the seal interference amount, and the seal taper is determined based on the value. Therefore, even if the pins and couplings are manufactured so as to have a seal taper that is compatible with the nominal value, actually, the ones corresponding to the upper and lower limits of the seal interference amount may be engaged due to manufacturing variations. There is a concern that a singularity may occur. Therefore, as described above, α C >
on which the alpha P, as proposed in the Japanese Patent Laid-Open 8-93972 discloses a profile of the coupling-side sealing surface 5S, linear convex pin 1 side instead of the (bus line 7 of the conical surface) ( For example, it is more preferable to have an arc shape (having a radius of curvature R indicated by a directed line segment 9 in the convex section 8). As a result, the variation can be absorbed at the time of engagement, and as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. An ideal seal state can be secured without lowering the adhesion between the two.
