Abstract

A hose joint includes a cylindrical nipple provided along an insertion space of the flexible hose, an elastic sleeve which is provided so as to clamp the insertion space of the flexible hose between an outer peripheral face of the nipple and the elastic sleeve in a radial direction and is deformable in the radial direction, and a tightening member provided outside the elastic sleeve and having a pressing part that presses the elastic sleeve toward the nipple, wherein the nipple has a large-diameter cylindrical face which is smooth in the axial direction and faces and pressure-welds to an inner surface of the flexible hose in the radial direction on an axial direction front end of an outer peripheral face, and the elastic sleeve has a cylindrical inner face which is smooth in the axial direction and pressure-welds to an outer surface of the flexible hose.

Claims (24)

1. A hose joint comprising:

a cylindrical nipple provided along an insertion space of a flexible hose;

an elastic sleeve which is provided so as to clamp the insertion space of the flexible hose between an outer peripheral face of the nipple and the elastic sleeve in a radial direction and is deformable in the radial direction; and

a tightening member provided outside the elastic sleeve and having a pressing part that presses the elastic sleeve toward the nipple, wherein

the nipple has a large-diameter cylindrical face which is smooth in an axial direction and faces and pressure-welds to an inner surface of the flexible hose in the radial direction on an axial direction front end of the outer peripheral face,

the elastic sleeve has a cylindrical inner face which is smooth in the axial direction and extends in parallel with the axial direction and pressure-welds to an outer surface of the flexible hose on a sleeve inner face facing the large-diameter cylindrical face of the nipple in the radial direction across the flexible hose clamped,

the outer peripheral face of the nipple has an annular groove provided adjacent to the large-diameter cylindrical face in the axial direction, and a bottom of the annular groove has a constant diameter in an axial direction,

the sleeve inner face has an annular rib provided facing the annular groove in the radial direction across the flexible hose clamped and a top of the annular rib has a constant diameter in the axial direction, and

on the sleeve inner face, the cylindrical inner face is formed partially protruding toward the outer surface of the flexible hose in the radial direction.

2. The hose joint according to claim 1 , wherein

a protrusion amount of the cylindrical inner face protruding from the sleeve inner face toward the outer surface of the flexible hose in the radial direction is formed smaller than a protrusion amount of the annular rib.

3. A hose joint comprising:

a cylindrical nipple provided along an insertion space of a flexible hose;

an elastic sleeve which is provided so as to clamp the insertion space of the flexible hose between an outer peripheral face of the nipple and the elastic sleeve in a radial direction and is deformable in the radial direction; and

a tightening member provided outside the elastic sleeve and having a pressing part that presses the elastic sleeve toward the nipple, wherein

the nipple has a large-diameter cylindrical face which is smooth in an axial direction and faces and pressure-welds to an inner surface of the flexible hose in the radial direction on an axial direction front end of the outer peripheral face,

the elastic sleeve has a cylindrical inner face which is smooth in the axial direction and extends in parallel with the axial direction and pressure-welds to an outer surface of the flexible hose on a sleeve inner face facing the large-diameter cylindrical face of the nipple in the radial direction across the flexible hose clamped,

the outer peripheral face of the nipple has an annular groove provided adjacent to the large-diameter cylindrical face in the axial direction, and a bottom of the annular groove has a constant diameter in an axial direction,

on the outer peripheral face of the nipple, at least one additional annular groove is provided closer toward a base end side of the hose joint than the annular groove, and

the sleeve inner face has an annular rib provided facing the annular groove, which is provided adjacent to the large-diameter cylindrical face in the axial direction, in the radial direction across the flexible hose clamped and a top of the annular rib has a constant diameter in the axial direction.

4. The hose joint according to claim 3 , wherein

on the sleeve inner face, the cylindrical inner face is formed partially protruding toward the outer surface of the flexible hose in the radial direction.

5. The hose joint according to claim 3 , wherein

a protrusion amount of the cylindrical inner face protruding from the sleeve inner face toward the outer surface of the flexible hose in the radial direction is formed smaller than a protrusion amount of the annular rib.
