ABSTRACT:
An adjustable safety and rapidly assembled connector includes a first joint, a second joint, two connecting seats, and a locking device. A sealing ring is installed within the connecting end of the second joint. A buckling groove is installed external the connecting end of the second joint. An inclined plane is installed on one side of the buckling groove. Each end of the two connecting seats is installed with a locking portion. A buckling body is projected from the inner portion of the buckling groove. An inclined plane is formed from one side of the buckling body. One ends of the two connecting seats are pivotally connected with connecting end of the first joint. When the two connecting seats are connected, the locking portions of two connecting seats are tightly locked by a locking device. The buckling bodies of the connecting seats are connected with the buckling groove on the connecting end of the second joint, and the inclined planes of the two connecting seats resist against the inclined plane of the second joint so that the second joint will move axially. The connecting end of the second joint resists against and press the sealing ling. Therefore, a well loosen-preventing effect is achieved. The present invention has a good safe and reliability. The locking device is easily operated. Thus, the force are uniformly applied.
