- the fluid coupling of the present invention when at least one of the overtightening prevention annular protrusions is abutted with each other, a communication passage is formed to communicate the internal space with the external space. Therefore, when a failure to forget to insert a gasket occurs, there is a leak through the communication path of the over-tightening annular protrusion, and it is possible to reliably detect forgetting to insert the gasket in the leak test.
- FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view showing an embodiment of a fluid coupling according to the present invention.
- FIG. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view of a main part when the gasket is forgotten.
- FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing an example of a communication path provided in the overtightening preventing annular protrusion.
- FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing another example of the communication path provided in the overtightening preventing annular protrusion.
- FIG. 5 is a longitudinal sectional view of a main part when a gasket is forgotten to be inserted in a conventional joint.
- FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of a fluid coupling according to the present invention.
- the fluid coupling includes a tubular first coupling member (1) and a tubular second coupling member (2) having fluid passages communicating with each other. ), An annular gasket (3) interposed between the right end surface of the first joint member (1) and the left end surface of the second joint member (2), and holding the annular gasket (3) and A retainer (5) held by one joint member (1), and a second joint by a nut (4) screwed to the first joint member (1) from the second joint member (2) side.
- the member (2) is fixed to the first joint member (1).
- An annular seal protrusion (7) (8) is formed in the substantially central portion in the radial direction of the abutting end face of each joint member (1) (2), and an annular overtightening prevention protrusion is formed on the outer periphery. (9) and (10) are formed.
- Both end surfaces of the gasket (3) are flat surfaces perpendicular to the axial direction.
- a retaining portion (3b) consisting of an outward flange is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the gasket (3). The gasket (3) is held by the retainer (5) and the retainer (5) is attached to each joint member (1 ) (2) is easy to do the work of holding.
- Both joint members (1) (2) and gasket (3) are made of SUS316L.
- the inner diameters of both joint members (1) and (2) are equal to the inner diameter of the gasket (3).
- stainless steel other than SUS316L and other metals are appropriately employed.
- the retainer (5) is integrally formed of a stainless steel plate, and includes an annular part (21) and three claws (23) provided inwardly projecting at the right end of the annular part (21).
- the gasket holding part (22) holding the outer peripheral surface of the gasket (3) and the joint member holding part (24) adapted to engage with the right end face of the first joint member (1).
- the three claws (23) have some elasticity, and a bent portion (23a) having some elasticity bent rightward is provided at the tip of each claw (23). Then, the gasket (3) is fitted inside each claw (23), and the bent portion (23a) is brought into close contact with the gasket (3) so that the radial direction and the axial direction in the retainer (5) of the gasket (3) Movement to is blocked.
- the annular portion (21) is provided with a pair of axial cutouts at the positions where the three claws (23) are provided, and the three claw-shaped holding portions (25) formed thereby.
- the joint member holding portion (24) is configured.
- the three claw-shaped holding portions (25) hold the retainer (5) on the first joint member (1) by scuffing the outer surface of the right end portion of the first joint member (1) by elastic force.
- An inward flange (11) is formed at the right end of the nut (4), and this flange (11) is fitted around the second joint member (2).
- a female screw (12) is formed on the inner periphery of the left end of the nut (4), and this is screwed into a male screw (14) formed on the right side of the first joint member (1).

Further, the retainer (5) is pressed from both sides. Each of the over-tightening prevention annular projections (9) and (10) protects the seal projections (7) and (8) of each joint member (1) and (2) before assembly, which has an important effect on the sealing performance. The seal protrusions (7) and (8) exerting the resistance are prevented from being damaged.
- a test hole (not shown) for leak test is formed in the nut (4), and a leak test is performed to detect defective seals such as forgetting to put a gasket.
- the gasket (3) is forgotten to be inserted, for example, if it is tightened until a predetermined tightening force is reached, in the conventional fluid coupling, as shown in FIG. 5, the first coupling member (1) is overtightened.
- the resistance to tightening is increased.
- a predetermined tightening force (same magnitude as the appropriate tightening force) is reached.
- the fluid coupling according to the present invention at least one (both shown) annular protrusions (9) (10) for preventing overtightening.
