As can be seen in the pipe ends 1 and 10 shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 as prior art,
The pipe end of each part that constitutes the refrigeration cycle of the air conditioner is given a specific connection part shape that fits the pipe ends of the other parts connected to it, but the shape of the connection part is common. There cannot be one type, and at least two types, a male type and a female type, always exist even when the shapes of the connecting portions are unified. Since there are at least two types of connection shape at the end of the pipe,
Conventionally, it has been necessary to prepare two or more types of hermetic plugs according to the shapes of the connecting portions.
Although the stoppers 6 or 17 are discarded after the piping of the air conditioner is finished, since many of them have a relatively complicated shape, a molding die for manufacturing them by injection molding or the like is expensive. In addition, managing or selectively using various kinds of hermetic plugs in the manufacturing process of air conditioner parts causes not only the hermetic plugs but also the manufacturing cost of the air conditioner itself to increase.

First, as shown in FIG. 3, a male connecting portion 3 is formed.
Sealing plug 2 of the illustrated embodiment at a pipe end 1 for a block having
3 is applied, the small-diameter cylindrical portion 26 of the hermetic plug 23 is fitted to the outer periphery of the male connecting portion 3 to protect the joint surface, and the disc portion 25 opens the pipe end portion 1 of the block. The part 2 is closed to prevent foreign matter from entering. Further, the annular claw portion 31 of the sealing plug 23 is seated on the base end surface 5 of the pipe end portion 1 to prevent the surface thereof from being scratched or soiled, and the large diameter cylindrical portion 2
8 covers the annular groove 4 of the pipe end 1 and protects an O-ring (not shown) even if it is pre-mounted. The stopper 23 is prevented from coming off by engaging the claw portion 30 with the upper edge portion of the annular groove 4. Although the hermetic plug 23 is not provided with a portion that covers the bolt hole 9, the bolt hole 9 is merely inserted with a bolt (not shown), and therefore it is not particularly necessary to protect the bolt hole 9 with the hermetic plug 23. The disengagement is sufficiently achieved by the engagement of the claw portion 30 with the annular groove 4 and the fitting of the small-diameter cylindrical portion 26 on the outer circumference of the male connecting portion 3.

The same sealing plug 23 acts as shown in FIG. 4 on the female pipe end 10 of the pipe member. Even with the same shape, the action of several parts of the stopper 23 is
This is different from the case of FIG. 3 because the target is different. That is, the small-diameter cylindrical portion 26 of the hermetic stopper 23 is connected to the pipe end portion 10.
By fitting the outer periphery of the tip 12 of the above, the disc surface 25 closes the opening 18 while the joint surface of the tip 12 is protected, and the claw 30 engages with the upper edge of the annular groove 16. Although it does not come off as a stopper, it is almost the same as the case of FIG.
The concave portion serving as the female connection portion 11 of 0 is covered to prevent foreign matter from entering and protect the female screw portion 14 and the like of the union nut 15. When the O-ring is mounted in the annular groove 16 in advance, it is protected not only by the large-diameter cylindrical portion 28 of the hermetic plug 23 but also by the annular cap portion 29 so as to be overlapped. Further, the ring-shaped claw portion 31 of the hermetic stopper 23 is connected to the female screw portion 14 of the union nut 15.
When a ring groove is specially formed on a part of the inner peripheral surface or the inner peripheral surface of the lower part of the inner ring, the union nut 15 and the sealing plug 23 are fixed by engaging with the groove, and the union nut 15 is prevented from freely moving. . When the annular claw portion 31 is not engaged with the female screw portion 14 or the like, the tip of the claw portion 31 is elastically deformed to some extent and frictionally engages with a part of the inner surface of the union nut 15. And the stopper 23 are fixed.

The hermetic plug according to the present invention can be commonly used for pipe ends having completely different shapes, such as a male pipe end and a female pipe end. It is possible to obtain a protective effect that is substantially the same as that of many kinds of stoppers. Therefore, since it is possible to reduce the types of sealing plugs to be prepared in the air conditioner manufacturing process, the cost of the molding die for manufacturing the sealing cap is reduced, the management of the sealing plug in the manufacturing process of the air conditioner is facilitated, and the air conditioner as a whole is cooled. Manufacturing cost can be reduced.
