[0026] like Figure 1-5As shown, the utility model provides a three-way reversing valve, including a valve body 1, on which a feed straight-through 101, a discharge straight-through 102 and a discharge bypass 103 are arranged, the angle between the discharge straight-through 102 and the discharge bypass 103 is an acute angle, the discharge straight-through 102 and the feed straight-through 101 are axially overlapped, a valve core 2 that can be driven to rotate is arranged in the inner cavity of the valve body 1, and the valve core 2 can make the feed straight-through 101 communicate with the discharge straight-through 102 or the discharge bypass 103 by rotating;

[0027] The angle between the discharge straight-through 102 and the discharge bypass 103 is an acute angle, the discharge straight-through 102 and the feed straight-through 101 are axially overlapped, the rotation angle of the valve core 2 in the valve body 1 is equal to the angle between the discharge straight-through 102 and the discharge bypass 103, the valve core 2 has two extreme positions in the valve body 1, namely, the straight-through position and the side-through position, and the valve core 2 can switch back and forth between the straight-through position and the side-through position by rotating forward and reverse directions in the valve body 1.

[0028] The ports of the feed straight-through 101, the discharge straight-through 102 and the discharge bypass 103 located on the inner wall of the valve body 1 are provided with sealing grooves at their peripheries, a sealing ring 3 is provided in the sealing grooves, and a V-shaped groove 301 is provided on the inner side of the sealing ring 3 along its body. In addition, in order to increase the body strength at the sealing grooves, a thickened flange R located on the outer wall of the valve body 1 is designed at the sealing grooves;

[0029] The specific structure of the valve core 2 includes two groups of cylindrical barrels 201 that are axially parallel and arranged side by side. The two groups of cylindrical barrels 201 rotate with the valve core 2 to cause the feed straight-through 101 to communicate with the discharge straight-through 102 and the discharge bypass 103 respectively. When the valve core 2 is in the straight-through position in the valve body 1, the two ports of one group of cylindrical barrels 201 on the valve core 2 body are respectively connected to the inner ports of the feed straight-through 101 and the discharge straight-through 102, so that the feed straight-through 101 is respectively connected to the discharge straight-through 102; when the valve core 2 is in the side-through position in the valve body 1, the two ports of the other group of cylindrical barrels 201 on the valve core 2 body are respectively connected to the inner ports of the feed straight-through 101 and the discharge bypass 103, so that the feed straight-through 101 is respectively connected to the discharge bypass 103;

Connecting ribs 204a and connecting ribs 204b for strengthening the structural strength are respectively provided between the upper and lower arc ends of the large arc end plate 203 and the outer wall of the cylindrical barrel 201. The valve cover 5 is detachably connected to both sides of the valve body 1, and the valve cover 5 and the valve body 1 are matched through a stop and sealed with an O-ring 7. The valve body 1 and the valve cover 5 are connected by bolt locking, and the corresponding bolt holes on the valve body 1 and the valve cover 5 are provided with lug designs to strengthen the thickness of the connection structure. The outer side surface of the valve cover 5 is designed to be a conical surface structure, which is at a certain angle to the horizontal plane and is more suitable for resisting the air flow pressure of the material conveying inside the valve body 1. Bosses 205 fixed on the outer wall of the cylindrical tube 201 are symmetrically provided on both sides of the rotation axis of the valve core 2, and a support shaft 206 supporting the rotation of the valve core 2 is threadedly connected to the boss 205. The support shaft 206 is connected to the center hole of the valve cover 5 through the flanged sliding bearing 6. A shoulder 207 is provided on the support shaft 206, and the end face of the shoulder 207 is relatively fitted with the side of the flanged sliding bearing 6, thereby limiting the movement of the valve core 2 along its rotation axis. A stop plane is processed on the side of the shoulder 207, and a positioning piece 208 is installed on the boss 205 to limit the position relative to the stop plane to prevent the support shaft 206 from rotating.

[0031] The valve core 2 adopts a structural design of two groups of axially parallel and side-by-side arranged cylindrical tubes 201. When the rotation angle of the valve core 2 is equal to the acute angle between the discharge straight channel 102 and the discharge bypass 103, the purpose of switching the flow direction of the logistics can be achieved. Therefore, the action stroke of the valve core 2 inside the valve body 1 is relatively small, thereby reducing the wear of the sealing ring 3 and increasing the service life of the sealing ring 3.

[0032] In this embodiment, a tapered stop column 4 which is located on the valve body 1 and can be adjusted up and down is provided just above the middle of the feed straight-through 101 and the discharge straight-through 102. The tapered stop column 4 can be adjusted up and down by a vertical bolt 303 which is threadedly connected to the valve body 1, and a locking nut 304 is provided on the vertical bolt 303. When the valve core 2 is in the straight-through position in the valve body 1, the side of the tapered stop column 4 fits with the connecting rib 204a. When the valve core 2 is in the straight-through position in the valve body 1, if there is a slight position deviation when the two ports of the corresponding cylindrical barrel 201 are connected with the inner ports of the feed straight-through 101 and the inner ports of the discharge straight-through 102, it will cause the material to be scratched at the connection port during the material transmission process. The tapered stop column 4 can be adjusted up and down to adjust the rotation angle of the valve core 2, so that the matching degree of the two ports of the cylindrical barrel 201 when connected with the feed straight-through 101 and the discharge straight-through 102 is higher, so that the material can pass smoothly from the connection port.

[0033] A flow direction pointer 12 is fixed on the shaft end face of one side of the support shaft 206 by bolts and gaskets, which is used to distinguish whether the valve core 3 is in the straight-through position or the side-through position in the valve body 1. A junction box 13 is provided on the corresponding valve cover 5 at the shaft end on the other side of the support shaft 206. The junction box 13 is built with a position feedback switch device. The feedback connection shaft inside the position feedback switch device is connected to the end of the support shaft 206, so as to achieve the purpose of detecting the rotation of the valve core 2. The rotation of the valve core 2 can be detected and the electrical signal can be fed back to the upper computer. The position feedback switch device is a mature technical product, which is purchased from the market and can be directly installed on the product corresponding to this application and connected to the end of the support shaft 206 of this product.

[0034] The three-way reversing valve conveys the material by pneumatic force. The airflow of the material conveying is relatively large. The airflow pushes the material from the feed straight channel 101 into the corresponding cylindrical barrel 201, and then discharges from the discharge straight channel 102 or the discharge bypass 103. Figure 4 In the k direction shown, the seal ring 3 enters the V-shaped groove 301 from the gap between the seal ring 3 and the seal groove. At this time, the V-shaped groove 301 is deformed and expanded by the air pressure, and the expansion force acts on the seal ring 3 body, which can make the seal ring 3 and the arc-shaped outer side surface of the arc-shaped end plate 203 of the valve core 2 fit more closely and have a better sealing effect.

[0035] In this embodiment, the present application also includes a power assembly for driving the valve core 2 to rotate, referring to Figure 2 , Figure 3, the power assembly can be a straight-stroke cylinder 8 connected to the valve body 1, the piston rod end of the straight-stroke cylinder 8 extends into the interior of the valve body 1 and is connected to a connector 9 by a nut, a chain plate 10 is bolted to the connector 9, and the chain plate 10 is bolted to the connecting rib 204b; when the valve core 2 is in the side-pass position in the valve body 1, if there is a slight position deviation when the two ports of the corresponding cylindrical barrel 201 are connected with the inner port of the feed straight-through 101 and the inner port of the discharge bypass 103, the position of the piston rod end of the straight-stroke cylinder 8 can be adjusted by rotating the connector 9. Through the structural linkage relationship, the rotation angle of the valve core 2 is adjusted, so that the two ports of the cylindrical barrel 201 are more matched when connected with the feed straight-through 101 and the discharge bypass 103. The straight-stroke cylinder 8 is controlled by the air control assembly composed of the external solenoid valve F1 and the filter pressure regulating solenoid valve F2 of this application, so that the extension and contraction amount of its piston rod is controlled. The pneumatic control means of the pneumatic control component for the linear cylinder 8 belongs to the prior art and is not what the present application is intended to protect, so no further detailed description will be given for this.

[0036] In this embodiment, the power assembly can also be an angular stroke cylinder 11 disposed on the valve cover 5. Figure 5 As shown, if the angular stroke cylinder 11 is used, the flow direction pointer 12 at the end of the support shaft 206 needs to be removed, and the end of the support shaft 206 is connected by the driving end of the angular stroke cylinder 11. The driving shaft of the angular stroke cylinder 11 has an angle rotation direction arrow mark S, which can also be used to distinguish whether the valve core 3 is in the straight-through position or the side-through position in the valve body 1. When the angular stroke cylinder 11 is used, the flange port on the valve body 1 connected to the linear stroke cylinder 8 is sealed with an end cover.

[0037] The above-described implementation modes of the present invention do not constitute a limitation on the protection scope of the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
