Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of valve technology, and in particular relates to a multifunctional pneumatically controlled coaxial valve. Background Technology

[0002] Coaxial valves are widely used in the field of valve technology. Their unique integrated valve body and actuator structure gives them many advantages. The actuator of a coaxial valve is completely aligned with the axis of the fluid pipeline and the direction of fluid flow. This design not only makes coaxial valves compact and suitable for installation in space-constrained environments, but also features a balanced structural design that requires low driving force, and a straight-through structural design that enables low pressure drop.

[0003] However, while coaxial valves perform excellently in controlling pipeline opening and closing, existing coaxial valves have relatively limited functionality. When more complex control of the medium flowing through the pipeline is required, such as controlling the direction of flow, it is usually necessary to connect other valves, such as check valves, in series with the pipeline. This not only increases the complexity of the pipeline but also raises the overall cost. Furthermore, when it is necessary to change the direction of flow, the check valve must be removed from the pipeline, reversed, and reinstalled, which consumes a lot of manpower.

[0030] Combination Figures 2-9 As shown, the limiting assembly includes a control block 7, a control cap 14, a control cylinder 21, a right gasket 17, and a left gasket 19.

The right gasket 17 is provided with a right gasket pin 18, which is slidably connected to the right flat groove 15.

[0031] Combination Figures 2-9As shown, when the limiting assembly is in the first state, the left control groove 24 and the left flat groove 13 are misaligned, the right control groove 23 and the right flat groove 15 are misaligned, and the left gasket pin 20 and the right gasket pin 18 are fixed, thereby limiting the valve core 5 to the neutral position; when the limiting assembly is in the second state, the left control groove 24 and the left flat groove 13 are misaligned, the right control groove 23 and the right flat groove 15 are aligned, the left gasket pin 20 is fixed, and the right gasket pin 18 can slide to the left along the right control groove 23 and the right flat groove 15, thereby limiting the valve core 5 to slide between the neutral position and the left position; when the limiting assembly is in the third state, the left control groove 24 and the left flat groove 13 are aligned, the right control groove 23 and the right flat groove 15 are misaligned, the left gasket pin 20 can slide to the right along the left control groove 24 and the left flat groove 13, and the right gasket pin 18 is fixed, thereby limiting the valve core 5 to slide between the neutral position and the right position.

When the limiting component is in the third state, valve core 5 is restricted to sliding between the neutral and right positions. If valve core 5 moves to the right position, the right valve port closes.

[0033] Combination Figure 3 , Figure 6 As shown, the limiting assembly also includes a small piston 27 and a small spring 28; the small piston 27 is slidably disposed in the control block 7, with one end of the small piston 27 and the control block 7 forming a small piston cavity 9, and the other end of the small piston 27 and the control block 7 forming a small spring cavity 10; the small spring 28 is disposed in the small spring cavity 10 and is used to drive the small piston 27 to move in the direction of extending into the small piston cavity 9.

[0034] Combination Figure 3 , Figure 6 As shown, the limiting assembly also includes a control pawl 29 and a torsion spring 30; multiple ratchet teeth 22 are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction in the middle of the control cylinder 21; the control pawl 29 is rotatably connected to the small piston 27; the torsion spring 30 is disposed inside the control pawl 29 to drive the control pawl 29 to rotate toward the ratchet teeth 22.

[0036] In this embodiment, by controlling the small piston 27 to drive the control pawl 29 to move, the control cylinder 21 can be rotated by controlling the cooperation of the pawl 29 and the ratchet 22, thereby realizing the switching of the working state of the limit component and the switching of its internal medium flow direction function. No disassembly is required, saving manpower, and the control is convenient and simple to operate.

[0037] Combination Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the limiting assembly also includes a centering spring 16; the centering spring 16 is disposed between the right washer 17 and the left washer 19, and is used to drive the right washer 17 and the left washer 19 to move in a direction away from each other.

[0038] Combination Figures 2-4 , Figure 6 As shown, the control block 7 is provided with a medium flow channel 8, which connects port B and the left valve port.

[0039] Combination Figures 2-4 , Figure 6 As shown, a piston disc is provided in the middle of the piston valve sleeve 6. The right side of the piston disc and the valve body 1 form a pneumatic chamber 2, and the left side of the piston disc, the right side of the control block 7, and the valve body 1 form a main spring chamber 3. The valve body 1 is also provided with port C and port D. Port C is connected to the pneumatic chamber 2, and port D is connected to the main spring chamber 3. The control block 7 is provided with a control flow channel 11 and an air flow channel 12. The control flow channel 11 connects the main spring chamber 3 and the small piston chamber 9, and the air flow channel 12 connects the small spring chamber 10 to the outside.

[0040] Combination Figure 2 , Figure 4 As shown, the coaxial valve also includes a main spring 4; the main spring 4 is disposed in the main spring cavity 3 and is used to drive the piston valve sleeve 6 to move to the right.

[0041] The working principle of this multi-functional pneumatically controlled coaxial valve is as follows: Figure 2As shown, the limiting component is in the first state at this time. When the present invention needs to be used, first connect ports A and B to the medium pipeline, and ports C and D to the pneumatic pipeline respectively. Then, high-pressure medium is introduced into port A or port B. Since the piston valve sleeve 6 is held in the rightmost position under the action of the main spring 4, the right end of the piston valve sleeve 6 and the valve core 5 are in close contact. And since the limiting component is in the first state, the left control groove 24 and the left flat groove 13 are misaligned, the right control groove 23 and the right flat groove 15 are misaligned, and the left gasket pin 20 and the right gasket pin 18 are fixed. When in use, valve core 5 is restricted to the neutral position, so the left valve port is closed, and the medium cannot flow between ports A and B. Then, high-pressure air is introduced into port C. After the high-pressure air enters the pneumatic chamber 2, it pushes the piston valve sleeve 6 to move to the leftmost position against the main spring 4, opening the left and right valve ports and forming a passage. The high-pressure medium can flow between ports A and B in both directions. When the high-pressure air is stopped from being introduced into port C, under the action of the main spring 4, the piston valve sleeve 6 is pushed to move to the rightmost position, closing the left valve port, which can block the flow of the medium between ports A and B.

[0042] When it is necessary for the medium to pass through port B to port A in a unidirectional manner, high-pressure air is first introduced into port D. After passing through the main spring cavity 3 and the control flow channel 11, the high-pressure air enters the small piston cavity 9 and pushes the small piston 27 to move against the small spring 28, so that the air in the small spring cavity 10 is discharged to the outside through the air flow channel 12. Since the control pawl 29 is rotatably connected to the small piston 27, the ratchet 22 is pushed to rotate under the cooperation of the control pawl 29 and the torsion spring 30. When the small piston 27 is pressed against the bottom surface of the small spring cavity 10, the control cylinder 21 is rotated 45 degrees clockwise through the ratchet 22. Figure 6 Then, the air pressure at port D is controlled to decrease, and under the action of the small spring 28, the small piston 27 is pushed to move. Under the action of the one-way pawl 25 and the spring 26, the control cylinder 21 cannot reverse. With the cooperation of the control pawl 29 and the torsion spring 30, the small piston 27 returns to the initial position, completing one rise and fall of the air pressure at port D; then, the air pressure at port D is controlled to rise and fall again, and similarly, the control cylinder 21 is pushed to rotate 45 degrees clockwise again. Figure 6(Middle), so that the left control groove 24 and the left flat groove 13 are offset, and the right control groove 23 and the right flat groove 15 are aligned, and the limit component is in the second state; when the medium flows from port B to port A, high-pressure air is introduced into port C, pushing the piston valve sleeve 6 to move to the leftmost position. After the medium enters, it pushes the valve core 5 to the right. Since the left gasket 19 is fixed at this time, under the action of the left shoulder, the valve core 5 cannot move to the right and is restricted to the middle position, so the left valve port opens, and the medium flows out from port A after passing through the medium flow channel 8, the left valve port and the right valve port; when the medium in the pipeline backflows, the medium flows from port A to port B. When the medium overcomes the centering spring 16, it pushes the valve core 5 to the left. Under the action of the right shoulder, it drives the right gasket 17 to move to the left, causing the right gasket pin 18 to move to the left along the right control groove 23 and the right flat groove 15. This moves the valve core 5 to the left position and it is in close contact with the piston valve sleeve 6, closing the left valve port and preventing the medium from flowing, thus realizing the one-way passage function from port B to port A. When the high-pressure air is stopped from flowing into port C, under the action of the main spring 4, the piston valve sleeve 6 is pushed to the rightmost position. The valve core 5 and the piston valve sleeve 6 close the left valve port, thus blocking the flow of the medium between port B and port A.

[0043] When the medium needs to pass through port A to port B in a one-way direction, the air in port D is first controlled to rise and fall four times, which then pushes the small piston 27 into the small spring cavity 10 four times. By controlling the cooperation between the pawl 29, torsion spring 30, one-way pawl 25, spring plate 26 and ratchet 22, the control cylinder 21 continues to rotate 180 degrees clockwise. Figure 6 (Middle) Align the left control slot 24 and the left flat slot 13, and offset the right control slot 23 and the right flat slot 15, with the limit assembly in the third state; When the medium flows from port A to port B, high-pressure air is introduced into port C, pushing the piston valve sleeve 6 to the leftmost position. After the medium enters, it pushes the valve core 5 to the left. Since the right gasket 17 is fixed at this time, under the action of the right shoulder, the valve core 5 cannot move to the left and is restricted to the middle position, so the left valve port opens, and the medium flows out from port B after passing through the right valve port, the left valve port, and the medium flow channel 8; When backflow occurs in the pipeline, the medium flows from port B. When the medium flows to port A, the medium overcomes the centering spring 16 to push the valve core 5 to the right. Under the action of the left shoulder, the left gasket 19 moves to the right, causing the left gasket pin 20 to move to the right along the left control groove 24 and the left flat groove 13. As a result, the valve core 5 moves to the right position, closing the right valve port and preventing the medium from flowing, thus realizing the one-way passage function from port A to port B. When the high-pressure air is stopped from flowing to port C, under the action of the main spring 4, the piston valve sleeve 6 is pushed to the rightmost position. The valve core 5 and the piston valve sleeve 6 close the left valve port, thus blocking the flow of the medium between port A and port B.

[0044] When the coaxial valve needs to be switched to the initial state, the air pressure in port D needs to be controlled to rise and fall twice again, thereby pushing the small piston 27 into the small spring cavity 10 twice. By controlling the cooperation between the pawl 29, torsion spring 30, one-way pawl 25, spring 26 and ratchet 22, the control cylinder 21 continues to rotate 90 degrees clockwise. Figure 6 (In the middle), thereby rotating the control cylinder 21 to the initial position, and putting the limiting component in the first state, thus completing the reset of the present invention.

Various modifications and variations can be made to the present invention by those skilled in the art.
