Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drainage valve technology, specifically to a drainage and pressure reduction valve for an air compressor storage tank. Background Technology

[0002] The air receiver tank is an energy storage and buffer device at the back end of the air compressor. By storing high-pressure compressed air, it balances the fluctuations in air supply and demand at the air compressor end and optimizes system performance. It is unavoidable that compressed air contains moisture, and the air receiver tank is the main place where moisture accumulates. Drainage is a key operation to ensure system safety and air quality. To facilitate the drainage of the air receiver tank, an automatic drain valve is connected to the drain port of the air receiver tank.

[0003] In existing technology, the automatic drain valve consists of a drain outlet, a pressure relief knob, a cleaning button, a water inlet pipe, and a pre-filter. By connecting a hose to the drain outlet of the air tank and then to the pre-filter, it facilitates the automatic drainage of the air tank. However, in actual use, due to the lack of support, the automatic drain valve is usually placed haphazardly on the ground. The drain valve is easily moved by external forces, causing liquid water in the air tank to drain onto the ground. Furthermore, it is inconvenient to collect the discharged liquid water. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the air compressor air tank drain pressure relief valve to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a drain and pressure reduction valve for an air compressor's air tank, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an air compressor storage tank drain and pressure reduction valve, comprising an automatic drain valve, a drain outlet fixedly installed on the front of the automatic drain valve, a cleaning button provided on the outside of the automatic drain valve, a pressure relief button provided on the top of the automatic drain valve, a pre-filter fixedly installed on the back of the automatic drain valve, a water inlet hose fixedly installed on the back of the pre-filter, a support mechanism fixedly installed on the outside of the automatic drain valve, and a water guiding mechanism fixedly installed on the front of the automatic drain valve.

[0006] Preferably, the support mechanism includes a positioning shell, which is fixedly installed on the outside of the automatic drain valve. A side plate is slidably installed inside the positioning shell, and a base plate is fixedly installed at the bottom of the side plate. A cement bolt is movably installed inside the base plate. A sliding plate is slidably installed on the inner wall of the positioning shell, and an insert block is fixedly installed on the back of the sliding plate. The insert block is slidably installed with the positioning shell. A pull column is fixedly installed on the front of the sliding plate, and a spring is fixedly installed between the front of the sliding plate and the positioning shell. A pull ring is fixedly installed at the end of the pull column away from the sliding plate, which facilitates the support of the automatic drain valve and thus facilitates the collection of liquid water.

[0007] Preferably, the side plate has a groove at the position corresponding to the insertion block, and the insertion block is inserted into the groove, which facilitates limiting the automatic drain valve to different heights.

[0008] Preferably, the positioning shell has a through hole at the position corresponding to the pull column, and the pull column is slidably installed in the through hole, which facilitates the movement of the pull column and thus facilitates the release of the limit on the automatic drain valve.

[0009] Preferably, the water guiding mechanism includes a U-shaped block, which is fixedly installed on the front of the automatic drain valve. A screw is movably installed inside the U-shaped block, and a connecting plate is slidably installed on the inner wall of the U-shaped block. A water guiding cover is fixedly installed on the front of the connecting plate, and a threaded joint is fixedly installed on the front of the water guiding cover to facilitate the guiding of liquid water.

[0010] Preferably, the connecting plate has a threaded hole at the position corresponding to the screw, and the screw is threaded into the threaded hole to facilitate the limiting operation of the connecting plate.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a drain and pressure reduction valve for an air compressor's air tank, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] 1. The air compressor's air tank drain pressure reducing valve, through its supporting mechanism, allows for easy limiting of the side plate via cement bolts and positioning via a positioning shell. Pulling the pull ring allows the insert block to move away from the side plate, thus facilitating the movement of the automatic drain valve to a suitable height and away from the ground. This prevents the automatic drain valve from being moved by external forces and allows the water collection tank to be placed in front of the drain outlet for convenient collection of liquid water, preventing liquid water from being discharged onto the ground.

[0013] 2. The air compressor's air tank drain pressure reducing valve, through its water guiding mechanism, facilitates the positioning and limiting of the connecting plate during use using the U-shaped block and screws, thereby facilitating the installation of the water guide cover. The threaded joint facilitates the connection of the external water pipe to the threaded joint, thereby guiding the liquid water to a suitable discharge point and further facilitating the collection of liquid water.

[0023] Example 1:

[0024] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: an air compressor storage tank drain pressure reduction valve, including an automatic drain valve 1, a drain port 2 fixedly installed on the front of the automatic drain valve 1, a cleaning button 3 provided on the outside of the automatic drain valve 1, a pressure relief button 4 provided on the top of the automatic drain valve 1, a pre-filter 5 fixedly installed on the back of the automatic drain valve 1, a water inlet hose 6 fixedly installed on the back of the pre-filter 5, the end of the water inlet hose 6 away from the pre-filter 5 being connected to the drain port of the storage tank through a connector, a support mechanism 7 fixedly installed on the outside of the automatic drain valve 1, and a water guiding mechanism 8 fixedly installed on the front of the automatic drain valve 1.

[0025] Furthermore, the support mechanism 7 includes a positioning shell 701, which is fixedly installed on the outside of the automatic drain valve 1. A side plate 702 is slidably installed inside the positioning shell 701. A base plate 703 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the side plate 702. Two cement bolts 704 are movably installed inside the base plate 703, symmetrically arranged inside the base plate 703. A sliding plate 705 is slidably installed on the inner wall of the positioning shell 701. An insert block 706 is fixedly installed on the back of the sliding plate 705, slidably installed with the positioning shell 701. A pull post 707 is fixedly installed on the front of the sliding plate 705. A spring 708 is fixedly installed between the front of the 05 and the positioning shell 701. A pull ring 709 is fixedly installed at the end of the pull column 707 away from the slide plate 705. The cement bolt 704 is used to limit the side plate 702. The positioning shell 701 is used to position the side plate 702. By pulling the pull ring 709, the insert block 706 can be moved away from the side plate 702, thereby facilitating the movement of the automatic drain valve 1 to a suitable height, facilitating the movement of the automatic drain valve 1 away from the ground, preventing the automatic drain valve 1 from being moved by external force, and facilitating the placement of the water collection tank in front of the drain outlet 2 to collect liquid water and prevent liquid water from being discharged to the ground.

[0026] Furthermore, a groove is provided inside the side plate 702 at the position corresponding to the insertion block 706, and the insertion block 706 is inserted into the groove, which makes it easy to limit the automatic drain valve 1 to different heights, thereby making it easy to place the water collection container in front of the drain outlet 2.

[0027] Furthermore, a through hole is provided inside the positioning shell 701 at the position corresponding to the pull column 707, and the pull column 707 is slidably installed in the through hole, which facilitates the movement of the pull column 707 and thus facilitates the release of the limit on the automatic drain valve 1.

[0028] Please see Figure 5 Furthermore, in conjunction with Embodiment 1, the water guiding mechanism 8 includes a U-shaped block 801, which is fixedly installed on the front of the automatic drain valve 1. Two U-shaped blocks 801 are provided, symmetrically arranged on the front of the automatic drain valve 1. A screw 802 is movably installed inside the U-shaped block 801. A connecting plate 803 is slidably installed on the inner wall of the U-shaped block 801. A water guiding cover 804 is fixedly installed on the front of the connecting plate 803. The water guiding cover 804 is inclined to facilitate the guiding of liquid water. A threaded connector 805 is fixedly installed on the front of the water guiding cover 804. The U-shaped block 801 and screw 802 facilitate the positioning and limiting of the connecting plate 803, thereby facilitating the installation of the water guiding cover 804. The threaded connector 805 facilitates the connection of an external water pipe to the threaded connector 805, thereby facilitating the guiding of liquid water to a suitable discharge point and further facilitating the collection of liquid water.

[0029] Furthermore, the connecting plate 803 has a threaded hole at the position corresponding to the screw 802, and the screw 802 is threaded into the threaded hole, which facilitates the limiting operation of the connecting plate 803 and the quick disassembly and assembly of the water guide cover 804.

[0030] In actual operation, when this device is used, the base plate 703 is placed in a suitable position and limited by the cement bolts 704. The water inlet hose 6 is connected to the drain port of the gas storage tank. The side plate 702 is slid inside the positioning shell 701 to position the automatic drain valve 1. By pulling the pull ring 709, the sliding plate 705 is pressed against the spring 708, thereby moving the insert block 706 away from the side plate 702, moving the automatic drain valve 1 to a suitable height and limiting its position. This facilitates placing the water collection tank in front of the drain port 2 for easy collection of liquid water. When it is necessary to discharge liquid water to a designated area, the connecting plate 803 is slid on the inner wall of the U-shaped block 801 and limited by the screws 802, thus completing the installation of the water guide cover 804. The external water pipe is then connected to the threaded connector 805 to guide the liquid water to the designated discharge point.
