Product Description: Metal Steel Flange Flex Connector Rubber Expansion Joint

The universal hinge corrugated expansion joint is said to be a universal hinge compensator. The universal hinge corrugated expansion joint is composed of a corrugated pipe, a balance ring and two pairs of hinge plates connected with the balance ring and the end pipe. It is generally used in two universal hinge types or two universal hinge types and a single hinge together, which is suitable for "L" and "Z" pipe systems, mainly to compensate the synthetic displacement of multi-plane curved pipe segments by Angle deflection. Since the balance ring, pin and hinge plate can withstand the pressure thrust and other additional external forces, the expansion joint absorbs the internal pressure thrust itself, and does not produce external forces on the pipeline, so the setting of the pipeline support can be simplified.

The performance characteristics of the universal hinge corrugated expansion joint are as follows: it mainly compensates the resultant displacement of the multi-plane curved pipe segment by Angle deflection. Since the balance ring, pin and hinge plate can withstand the pressure thrust and other additional external forces, the expansion joint absorbs the internal pressure thrust itself, and does not produce external forces on the pipeline, so the setting of the pipeline support can be simplified. The universal hinge ripple compensator can compensate any upward angular displacement of the pipeline. The universal hinge expansion joint is different from the hinge type in that it has a universal ring, and there are two pairs of vertical hinge structures in the circumferential direction of the universal ring, so it can absorb the angular displacement of any plane, and two or three combinations are needed to absorb the displacement.

Application range of universal hinge corrugated expansion joint: To be applied to a variety of complex pipe systems, to compensate for the angular displacement of a variety of space pipe systems, such as L-shaped pipe, Z-shaped pipe, U-shaped pipe, etc.

Universal hinge compensator is mostly used to compensate the displacement of the three-dimensional pipe system, because of its unique structure, the pipe support does not bear the internal pressure thrust, only bear the elasticity of the compensator. The layout method is the same as that of the plane hinge.

The universal hinge compensator is different from the hinge type in that it has a universal ring, and there are two pairs of vertical hinge structures in the circumferential direction of the universal ring, so it can absorb the angular displacement of any plane, and the same absorption displacement requires two or three combinations.

Design temperature of universal hinge compensator: -20~+400℃
