Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of valves, and in particular to a high-temperature resistant one-way valve and a processing technology thereof. Background Art

[0002] A check valve is a directional control valve that allows airflow in one direction only, preventing reverse flow. While a wide variety of check valves are available on the market, some technical issues still exist due to the unique nature of certain applications. For example, in high-temperature environments, most check valves utilize an internal spring to seal their circuit. However, prolonged exposure to high temperatures can cause the spring's elastic force to decay rapidly, ultimately losing its elasticity. This can render the check valve ineffective, leading to equipment failure, production accidents, and even life-threatening situations. Consequently, the service life of most check valves is significantly shortened due to high temperatures, increasing maintenance costs for businesses, directly impacting production efficiency, and even posing a potential safety hazard.
