AI Technical Summary
In the working state of the existing gravity check valve, the valve core is easily pushed toward the end cap due to the intense consumption of compressed air, resulting in reverse high-speed impact and multiple reciprocating impacts, causing wear and vibration, and shortening product life.
A new gravity-type air-damping structure check valve was designed. By setting specific grooves and groove structures in the valve core and guide cavity, the maximum speed of the valve core operation is gradually slowed down by using the two-stage air compression process, controlling the amount of air compression, and avoiding direct contact between the valve core and the end cap.
It effectively slows down the maximum speed of the valve core movement, shortens the valve core movement stroke, avoids direct contact between the valve core and the end cover, and extends the service life of the check valve.
