A self-tightening sealing method for pipe joints

Abstract

The invention discloses a pipe joint self-tightening sealing method. The method includes steps of preparing or installing a pipe joint self-tightening high-pressure sealing device, inserting the sealing device into a pipe joint (6), fastening an outer cover (5) for preliminary sealing of the pipe joint (6), and carrying out self-tightening sealing. The high-pressure sealing device comprises the outer cover (5), a connection member (1) connecting with the outer cover (5), and an elastic member (3) between the outer cover (5) and the connection member (1). According to the method, self-tightening sealing of the pipe joint can be achieved under the pressure in the pipe with no need to apply a large initial pressure; The method has the advantages of simple operation and good sealing performance, and the sealing device adopted by the method has the advantages of simple structure, low cost and reusability, and is applied to the technical field of high-pressure sealing for various container pipe joints.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a sealing method, in particular to a self-tightening sealing method for pipe joints. Background technique [0002] Industrial containers, especially pressure vessels, often involve the sealing technology of non-flange pipe joints on these pressure vessels. When the heat exchange tube is subjected to a pressure test, the end of the tube needs to be pressure-sealed. [0003] The conventional sealing technology means is to use welding technology to weld the sealing cover on the pipe nozzle, and then cut and remove the cover after the pressure test is qualified. High; 2. After cutting and removing the cap, it is necessary to perform procedures such as beveling on the nozzle, which is complicated to operate and high in cost; 3. The reuse rate is low and the economy is poor. [0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a self-tightening sealing method for pipe joints with simple processing procedures, convenient operation...
