The invention discloses a
safety valve with an expansion function. The
safety valve comprises a valve body, a connecting cavity formed in the valve body, an inner pressure relief cavity, an outer pressure relief cavity, an inner pressure relief module and an outer pressure relief module, wherein the inner pressure relief cavity and the outer pressure relief cavity communicate with the connecting cavity, the inner pressure relief module is installed in the inner pressure relief cavity, and the outer pressure relief module is installed in the outer pressure relief cavity. The
safety valve is characterized in that a
water storage cavity communicating with the connecting cavity is further formed in the valve body, an end
face seal is arranged at one end of the
water storage cavity, an expansion module is arranged in the
water storage cavity, the expansion module comprises a partition plate which is arranged in the water storage cavity in a sliding mode and used for blocking water and an expansion spring used for connecting the bottom of the partition plate with the water storage cavity, and
working pressure of the inner pressure relief module is smaller than that of the expansion module which is smaller than that of the outer pressure relief module. The expansion module is arranged to collect water from the
water heater due to the heated expansion. When a user uses the water heaterfor discharging hot water, water stored in the water storage cavity is automatically discharged,
water resources are saved, and the water dripping phenomenon of the safety valve is effectively reduced.
