The present invention generally relates to a locking part for locking a pipe connection, for example a locking part for connecting pipes carrying fluid together, and a resulting pipe connection, particularly those used in the automotive field, for example fuel. It relates to injectors, filters, radiators, or any other suitable device connection, and / or any other similar art pipe connector.
Such locking parts for locking pipe connections and such pipe connectors are known, in particular from the publications US Pat. Nos. 6,086,119 and 5,374,088, and are shown in FIGS. ing. Such a locking part 1 is designed to lock the second pipe element 2 in the first pipe element 3 and connect them together, allowing fluid to flow from one to the other.
Each first pipe element 3 is provided with an axial male end piece 30 fixed to or integral with the housing 31. The housing 31 is provided with an axial orifice 32 provided in axial alignment with the male end piece 30 of the first tube element 3. The housing 31 defines a receiving port 33. The receptacle 33 is designed to receive the locking part 1 and is provided with a side opening 34 which allows the locking part 1 to be inserted from the side as indicated by the arrow T in FIG.
The locking part 1 is generally diamond-shaped, through which the axial orifice 14 passes. The diamond-shaped side part is elastically deformable, and a cradle 11 is provided at the center of the side part, and a press plate 12 is provided at the end part. In this way, the diamond shape of the locking part 1 can be flattened to some extent, for example, the locking part 1 is moved from the side through the side opening 34 as shown by the arrow T in FIG. 3 can be inserted into the three receptacles 33. After the locking part 1 is inserted, it relaxes inside the receptacle 33, the press plate 12 is received in the side opening 34, and the cradle 11 projects inwardly into the axial orifice 32 and outwards. The lock part 1 is locked inside the receiving port 33.
Each second pipe element 2 has an axial male end piece 20 which is provided with a circular collar 21 and which is extended, for example, by a connecting flange plate 22. The diameter of the male end piece 20 of the second tube element 2 is smaller than the diameter of the male end piece 30 of the first tube element 3 and the axial orifice 14 of the locking part 1 and can be received there. Become possible. The second pipe element 2 is axially engaged into the first pipe element 3 through the locking part 1. The cradle 11 is provided with an internal slope 13. The arrangement of the inner ramp 13 presses against the cradle 11 in the axial direction while the second tube element 2 is axially engaged in the axial orifice 32 as indicated by the arrow F in FIG. A circular collar 21 causes the cradle 11 to be separated radially, thereby allowing the circular collar 21 to pass between the cradle 11 and the second tube element 2 is inserted into the first tube element 3. To make it possible. After the circular collar 21 has gone past them, the cradles 11 approach each other in the radial direction and are clamped around the male end piece 20 of the second tube element 2 behind the circular collar 21. The cradle 11 then cooperates with the circular collar 21 to lock the second tube element 2 axially with respect to the first tube element 2 via the locking part 1. In this way, a pipe connector is obtained as shown in FIG. The first and second tube elements are also separated by a gasket 23 that makes it possible to ensure fluid tightness. For example, these gaskets 23 are separated from each other in the axial direction by an annular spacer 24 and locked in the first pipe element 3 by a ring 25.
In order to ensure that the tube connection has sufficient resistance to being pulled apart, the cradle 11 must be of high strength. This means that they must be firm. Accordingly, the insertion force required for elastically deforming the cradle 11 when crossing over the circular collar 21 is large, making it difficult to use the lock part 1. Furthermore, considering the dimensional tolerance of the diameter of the male end piece 20 of the second tube element 2, it often happens that the axial thrust is not centered for each cradle 1. In this way, the axial engagement force to be applied is greater.
US Pat. No. 6,866,119 US Pat. No. 5,374,088
The object of the present invention is to remedy that drawback by proposing a locking part for a pipe connection which provides a sufficient strength but requires only a limited insertion force.
For this purpose, the present invention provides a locking part for locking the pipe connection, the locking part being designed to be locked axially in the first pipe element and provided with a circular collar. Defining an axial orifice designed to receive the element, the locking part being at least one cradle that is elastically deformable, the second tube element being axially engaged into the axial orifice; Under the action of a circular collar that presses against it axially while moving radially away, allowing the circular collar to pass, then retracting and pressing behind the circular collar, A locking part provided with a cradle provided with an internal ramp designed to axially lock the second pipe element within the first pipe element in cooperation with the collar, said locking part The clade The inner slope is provided with at least one axial ridge that extends in a relief and is smaller than the width of the cradle, and during axial engagement onto the cradle other than the axial ridge. A locking component is provided that is designed to receive axial thrust from a circular collar while avoiding any axial thrust from the other circular collar.
The basic concept of the invention is to provide each cradle with an axial ridge that is suitable for picking up and concentrating axial thrust and having a width smaller than the width of the cradle carrying it. In this way, the generated friction is reduced and is easy to insert. Furthermore, since the axial force is centered in the central plane of the cradle by the axial ridge, the cradle is easily separated from each other with the same axial force.
The locking part according to the invention can advantageously have the following characteristics:
The axial bulge extends in the axial direction from the inner edge of the internal slope.
The axial ridge has a width of at least 0.1 millimeter (mm) and the total width of the axial ridges does not exceed 50% of the width of the cradle;
The outer shape of the axial bulge has a thickness of at least 0.1 mm at its apex with respect to the outer shape of the inner slope of the cradle. The thickness is measured perpendicular to the surface of the internal slope.
The axial ridge has a thickness that varies along the internal slope.
The axial ridge has an outer shape selected from the group consisting of a convex outer shape, a single inclined outer shape, and a multiple inclined outer shape.
• The axial ridge is a single ridge that is centered within the axial midplane of the cradle.
The cradle is provided with a plurality of axial ridges that are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the axial central plane of the cradle.
-The cradle is provided with two cradles that are axially symmetrical to each other.
The present invention also provides a pipe connector for connecting together a first pipe element and a second pipe element including such a locking part.
The invention will be more fully understood and other advantages will become apparent when reading the following detailed description of embodiments, given by way of non-limiting example and with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:

FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view showing another stage of engagement of the second tube element in the locking part of the present invention.
4-9, the locking component 10 of the present invention is substantially similar to the locking component 1 shown in FIGS. 1-3. Similar elements have similar reference numbers. Each cradle 11 is provided in the axial center plane P of the corresponding cradle, extends in a relief shape with respect to the outer shape of the inner slope 13, and extends in the axial direction from the inner edge 16 of the inner slope 13. Has a directional ridge. In the embodiment shown here, the axial ridge 15 extends to the outer edge 17 of the inner ramp 13. However, the axial ridge can also be interrupted before reaching the outer edge. Thus, the axial length of the axial ridge 15 is at least 10% of the axial length of the internal ramp 13 starting from the inner edge 16 of the internal ramp 13.
Each axial ridge 15 has a width l smaller than the width L of the cradle 11 carrying it. The width l is at least 0.1 mm and is configured such that the total width of the axial ridges 15 does not exceed 50% of the width of the corresponding cradle 11.
Each axial ridge 15 is at its apex with respect to the outer profile of the inner ramp 13, as shown in FIG. 7, and when the thickness E is measured perpendicular to the surface of the inner ramp 13, it is at least 0.1 mm. It has a thickness E.
The thickness of each axial ridge 15 can vary along the ramp as shown in FIG. 5, or can be constant as shown in FIG. Further, each axial ridge 15 can have a convex profile, a single ramp profile, or a multiple ramp profile as shown herein.
In one embodiment (not shown), the locking component is provided with a plurality of axial ridges. The axial ridges are then distributed symmetrically on both sides of the cradle's axial midplane. The total width of all axial ridges of the same cradle does not exceed 50% of the width of the cradle. The axial ridges of the same cradle are separated by a spacing that can vary from 0.1 mm to one half of the cradle width L.
In the embodiment shown here, the locking part has two cradles, each cradle being provided with one axial ridge. The locking part can also be provided with a single cradle or a plurality of cradles, and some of the cradles are not provided with axial ridges.
The locking part 10 of the present invention can be assembled on a first tube element 3 of a known type in the same manner as described above for the prior art locking part 1. A second tube element 2 of the type known as shown in FIGS. 7 to 9 is secondly engaged while being axially engaged in the locking part 10 of the invention as indicated by the arrow F. The circular collar 21 of the tube element 2 contacts the axial ridge 15. The circular collar 21 does not contact the rest of the surface of the cradle 11. In this way, the axial ridges 15 can ensure that the forces that push the cradles 11 apart are concentrated in the axial central plane P of each cradle 11 and are only taken up by the axial ridges 15. Thereby avoiding the risk of force being picked up diagonally by one or the other edge of the cradle 11. Therefore, it is easier to separate the cradle 11 with the same engagement force. Thus, assembling the pipe connector with the locking part 10 of the present invention requires less force than assembling with the prior art locking part 1. As described above, the present invention makes it possible to achieve the above-mentioned object while maintaining the strength of the lock part 10, particularly the cradle so as to withstand the separating force, and facilitating the insertion in the axial direction.
Of course, the present invention is in no way limited to the above description of one of its embodiments. Embodiments of the invention can be modified without exceeding the scope of the invention.
