The inside of the valve body 2 is provided with a rubber film 34 and a partition 8, and the inside of the pressure regulator is divided into an upper chamber 4, a middle chamber 7 and a lower chamber 11 by the rubber film 34 and the partition 8. The rubber film 34 is arranged on the valve body 2 and is fixed by the valve cover 6. The partition 8 and the valve body 2 are connected and fixed by welding. The middle chamber 7 is connected to the air outlet through the pressure signal tube 9. The rubber film 34 A pressure balancing device is provided on the upper part, and the pressure or flow of the air inlet is controlled by the pressure balancing device, so as to realize automatic pressure regulation; wherein the upper chamber 4 is connected with the outside atmosphere through the breathing hole 5, the middle chamber 7 is connected with the air outlet 10 through the pressure signal tube 9, and the lower chamber 11 is connected with the air inlet 17 and the air outlet 10; the partition plate 8 separates the middle chamber 7 from the lower chamber 11, so that the gas flowing out of the pressure regulating nozzle cannot directly act on the rubber film 34, avoiding the influence of the outlet pressure fluctuation caused by the conversion of dynamic pressure into static pressure acting on the rubber film.

[0020] In this embodiment, the pressure balancing device includes a pressure regulating device and a connecting device, the connecting device is fixedly connected to the pressure regulating device, and the pressure regulating device controls the pressure of the intake duct through the connecting device. The pressure regulating device includes a film pressure plate 33, a pressure regulating spring 35, an adjusting screw 36 and a spring pressure cap 37, the film pressure plate 33 is arranged on the top of the rubber film 34, the pressure regulating spring 35 is arranged on the film pressure plate 33, the spring pressure cap 37 is arranged on the top of the pressure regulating spring 35, and the adjusting screw 36 is arranged on the valve cover 6 and pressed on the spring pressure cap 37. The connecting device includes a lever 131, a pressure regulating rod 132, a locking nut 133, a positioning pin 134 and a positioning seat 135. A pressure regulating nozzle 31 is provided at the end of the air inlet duct 17 (the pressure regulating nozzle 31 is the opening at the end of the air inlet duct 17). The pressure regulating rod 132 is passed through the film pressure plate 33, the rubber film 34 and the partition 8, and is fixed to the film pressure plate 33 by the locking nut 133. The lever 131 is movably set on the positioning seat 135 by the positioning pin 134, and one end of the lever 131 is connected to the bottom of the pressure regulating rod 132, and the other end is provided with a valve pad 32, and the pressure regulating nozzle 31 is controlled by the valve pad 32.

A partition sealing ring 12 is provided between the partition 8 and the pressure-regulating rod 132, and the partition sealing ring 12 is arranged in the partition sealing ring groove of the partition 8 to prevent the gas from leaking from the lower chamber 11 to the middle chamber 7.

[0022] In this embodiment, the pressure signal tube 9 extends into the outlet duct 10, and the opening direction is away from the gas flow direction. A pressure signal tube 9 is provided on the pressure regulator outlet duct 10 to transmit the outlet pressure to the middle chamber 7, so as to achieve the purpose of feeding back the outlet pressure.

[0024] The bottled liquefied petroleum gas pressure regulator of the present invention uses the throttling principle to adjust the outlet pressure. The main action process is as follows: when the angle valve of the liquefied petroleum gas cylinder is opened, the gas enters the pressure regulator from the air inlet 17 and flows through the pressure regulating nozzle 31. The valve pad 32 is opened under the action of pressure, and the gas flows into the lower chamber 11 of the pressure regulator and flows out of the pressure regulator from the air outlet 10. A part of the gas flows into the middle chamber 7 below the rubber film 34 of the pressure regulator from the pressure signal tube 9. When the inlet pressure is too large or the flow rate is too small, the outlet pressure will be greater than the set value. The outlet pressure is transmitted to the middle chamber 7 via the pressure signal tube 9, the rubber film 34 bulges upward, and the volume of the upper chamber 4 gradually decreases. When the pressure in the upper chamber 4 is greater than the external atmospheric pressure, the air is discharged from the breathing hole 5. While the rubber film 34 bulges upward, under the joint action of the pressure regulating pull rod 132 and the lever 131, the valve pad 32 moves downward and gradually closes, and the outlet pressure gradually decreases and reaches a balance, so that the gas pressure is maintained within the set pressure regulating range; when the inlet pressure is too large or the flow rate is too small, the outlet pressure will be greater than the set value. The outlet pressure is transmitted to the middle chamber 7 via the pressure signal tube 9, the rubber film 34 bulges upward, and the volume of the upper chamber 4 gradually decreases. When the pressure in the upper chamber 4 is greater than the external atmospheric pressure, the air is discharged from the breathing hole 5. At the same time, the rubber film 34 bulges upward. Under the joint action of the pressure regulating pull rod 132 and the lever 131, the valve pad 32 moves downward and gradually closes. The outlet pressure gradually decreases and reaches a balance, so that the gas pressure is maintained within the set pressure regulating range; when the When the outlet pressure is too low or the flow rate is too large, the outlet pressure will be lower than the set value. The outlet pressure is transmitted to the middle chamber 7 via the pressure signal tube 9, the rubber film 34 is sunken downward, and the volume of the upper chamber 4 gradually increases. When the pressure in the upper chamber 4 is lower than the external atmospheric pressure, air enters the upper chamber 4 through the breathing hole 5. While the rubber film 34 is sunken downward, under the joint action of the pressure regulating rod 132 and the lever 131, the valve pad 32 moves upward and gradually opens, and the outlet pressure gradually increases to reach a new balance, so that the gas pressure is maintained within the set pressure regulating range.
