Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of diesel engine exhaust aftertreatment, and more particularly, to a reverse suction valve. Background Art

[0002] In order to meet the increasingly stringent emission standards, it has become necessary to install an exhaust aftertreatment device on a diesel engine. The current mainstream aftertreatment technology is the SCR technology, that is, using an aqueous urea solution as a reducing agent to purify nitrogen oxides in the exhaust gas. The urea pump is an important part of the urea solution injection metering system, and its function is to provide the nozzle with a urea solution having a stable pressure. The pressurized liquid is atomized by the nozzle and sprayed into the tailpipe to chemically react with the exhaust gas, thereby removing nitrogen oxides in the exhaust gas. When the urea pump stops working, the urea solution in the pump and the pipeline should be emptied, otherwise there will be problems of residual urea crystallization or icing. Both crystallization and icing problems will greatly damage the urea pump and cause it to fail to work. Although the existing reverse valve technology can meet the functions of evacuation and back suction, its volume is relatively large. Summary of the Invention

[0016] When the solenoid valve connects the energy storage cylinder with the force increasing cylinder, the pressurized liquid in the energy storage cylinder enters the force increasing cylinder, and the force increasing cylinder applies an external force to the spool valve, so that the spool valve moves to the second position relative to the valve passage.

[0017] In an optional embodiment, the valve body is further provided with a sixth liquid port communicated with the valve passage, and the sixth liquid port is communicated with the energy storage cylinder and the second annular groove;

[0018] The force increasing component further includes a check valve, the check valve is located on the pipeline connecting the sixth liquid port and the energy storage cylinder, and is used for unidirectional conduction from the sixth liquid port to the energy storage cylinder direction.

[0019] In an optional embodiment, the valve body is further provided with an energy storage cavity; the energy storage cylinder includes an energy storage piston and an energy storage spring;

[0020] The energy storage piston is slidably matched with the energy storage cavity, and the energy storage piston divides the energy storage cavity into a first chamber and a second chamber;

[0021] The energy storage spring is installed in the first chamber and is used to apply an external force to the energy storage piston to move in a direction away from the first chamber; the solenoid valve and the fourth liquid port are both connected to the second chamber.

[0023] The first interface is connected to the energy storage cylinder, the second interface is connected to the second liquid port, and the third interface is connected to the force amplifier cylinder;

[0024] The solenoid valve has a first state in which the first interface and the third interface are blocked and the second interface and the third interface are connected; and a second state in which the first interface and the third interface are connected and the second interface and the third interface are blocked.

The third chamber is connected to the valve passage, and the seventh liquid port and the eighth liquid port are respectively connected to the third chamber and the fourth chamber; the seventh liquid port is connected to the second liquid port, and the eighth liquid port is connected to the third interface;

[0027] When the solenoid valve is in the second state, the pressurized liquid in the energy storage cylinder enters the fourth chamber through the solenoid valve, and causes the force amplifier piston to move in a direction close to the valve passage to abut against the spool valve and drive the spool valve to move to the second position.

[0028] In an optional embodiment, the force amplifier assembly includes a force amplifier electromagnet connected to the valve body;

[0029] When the force amplifier electromagnet is powered off, the spool valve moves relative to the valve passage to the first position under the action of the elastic member;

[0030] When the force amplifier electromagnet is powered on, the spool valve moves relative to the valve passage to the second position under the magnetic force of the force amplifier electromagnet.

[0031] The beneficial effects of the embodiments of the present invention include:

[0032] The reverse suction valve includes a valve body, a spool valve, an elastic member, and a force amplifier assembly. Among them, the valve body is provided with a valve passage and a first liquid port, a second liquid port, a third liquid port, a fourth liquid port, and a fifth liquid port connected to the valve passage. The first liquid port and the second liquid port are used to be connected to the urea tank, the third liquid port and the fifth liquid port are used to be connected to the urea pump, and the fourth liquid port is used to be connected to the urea nozzle; and the spool valve can slide relative to the valve passage under the external forces of the elastic member and the force amplifier assembly.

[0033] Thus, when the external force exerted by the force - increasing component on the spool valve disappears, that is, when only the elastic component acts, the spool valve slides relative to the valve passage under the external force of the elastic component to the first position, and makes the first liquid port communicate with the third liquid port, and the fourth liquid port communicate with the fifth liquid port. At this time, since the first liquid port is connected to the urea tank, the third liquid port and the fifth liquid port are both connected to the urea pump, and the fourth liquid port is connected to the urea nozzle, the liquid in the urea tank can enter the valve passage from the first liquid port, then enter the urea pump through the third liquid port for pressurization, and then be transported to the urea nozzle through the fifth liquid port and the fourth liquid port;

[0034] When the force - increasing component applies an external force to the spool valve, the spool valve slides relative to the valve passage to the second position under the external forces of the elastic component and the force - increasing component, and makes the third liquid port communicate with the fourth liquid port, and the fifth liquid port communicate with the second liquid port. Since the second liquid port is connected to the urea tank, the third liquid port and the fifth liquid port are both connected to the urea pump, and the fourth liquid port is connected to the urea nozzle, the liquid in the urea nozzle can enter the valve passage from the fourth liquid port, then enter the urea pump through the third liquid port for pressurization, and then be transported to the urea tank through the fifth liquid port and the second liquid port, thus forming a reverse suction of the liquid;

[0035] In summary, through the sliding of the spool valve in the valve passage, the reverse suction valve can change the liquid delivery direction, which can simplify the structure of the reverse suction valve while reducing the stroke of the spool valve, thereby reducing the overall structural size of the reverse suction valve, which is beneficial to the design layout of the integrated urea pump and reduces the space requirement of the reverse suction valve during use, expanding the applicable range of the reverse suction valve.

[0052] Please refer to Figures 1-6 , Figures 1-3 which shows the structure of the backflow valve in the embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4 which shows the structure of the valve body in the embodiment of the present invention, Figure 5 which shows the structure of the valve body in the first position in the embodiment of the present invention, Figure 6 which shows the structure of the valve body in the second position in the embodiment of the present invention, Figure 5 and Figure 6 the direction indicated by the arrow in

[0053] This embodiment provides a backflow valve 200, and the backflow valve 200 includes a valve body 210, a slide valve 220, an elastic member 230, and a force amplification component 240.

[0054] The valve body 210 is provided with a valve passage 211 and a first liquid port 212, a second liquid port 213, a third liquid port 214, a fourth liquid port 215 and a fifth liquid port 216 that are communicated with the valve passage 211; the spool valve 220 is slidably engaged with the valve passage 211; the first liquid port 212 and the second liquid port 213 are used to communicate with the urea tank 10, the third liquid port 214 and the fifth liquid port 216 are used to communicate with the urea pump 20, and the fourth liquid port 215 is used to communicate with the urea nozzle 30.

[0055] The elastic member 230 is disposed in the valve passage 211, the force increasing component 240 is connected to the valve body 210, and both the elastic member 230 and the force increasing component 240 are used to apply an external force to the spool valve 220; when the external force applied by the force increasing component 240 to the spool valve 220 disappears, the spool valve 220 slides relative to the valve passage 211 to the first position under the external force of the elastic member 230, and makes the first liquid port 212 communicate with the third liquid port 214, and the fourth liquid port 215 communicate with the fifth liquid port 216; when the force increasing component 240 applies an external force to the spool valve 220, the spool valve 220 slides relative to the valve passage 211 to the second position under the external forces of the elastic member 230 and the force increasing component 240, and makes the third liquid port 214 communicate with the fourth liquid port 215, and the fifth liquid port 216 communicate with the second liquid port 213.

[0056] The working principle of the backflow valve 200 is as follows:

[0057] The backflow valve 200 includes a valve body 210, a spool valve 220, an elastic member 230 and a force increasing component 240. Among them, the valve body 210 is provided with a valve passage 211 and a first liquid port 212, a second liquid port 213, a third liquid port 214, a fourth liquid port 215 and a fifth liquid port 216 that are communicated with the valve passage 211. Among them, the first liquid port 212 and the second liquid port 213 are used to communicate with the urea tank 10, the third liquid port 214 and the fifth liquid port 216 are used to communicate with the urea pump 20, and the fourth liquid port 215 is used to communicate with the urea nozzle 30; and the spool valve 220 can slide relative to the valve passage 211 under the external forces of the elastic member 230 and the force increasing component 240.

[0058] Thus, when the external force applied by the force increasing component 240 to the spool valve 220 disappears, that is, when only the elastic member 230 acts, the spool valve 220 slides relative to the valve passage 211 to the first position under the external force of the elastic member 230, and makes the first liquid port 212 communicate with the third liquid port 214, and the fourth liquid port 215 communicate with the fifth liquid port 216. At this time, since the first liquid port 212 communicates with the urea tank 10, the third liquid port 214 and the fifth liquid port 216 both communicate with the urea pump 20, and the fourth liquid port 215 communicates with the urea nozzle 30, so the liquid in the urea tank 10 ( Figure 5The direction indicated by the arrow in the figure is the direction of liquid flow) can enter the valve channel 211 through the first liquid port 212, enter the urea pump 20 through the third liquid port 214 for pressurization, and then be delivered to the urea nozzle 30 through the fifth liquid port 216 and the fourth liquid port 215;

[0059] When the force-increasing assembly 240 applies an external force to the slide valve 220, the slide valve 220 slides to the second position relative to the valve passage 211 under the external force of the elastic member 230 and the force-increasing assembly 240, and the third liquid port 214 is connected to the fourth liquid port 215, and the fifth liquid port 216 is connected to the second liquid port 213. Since the second liquid port 213 is connected to the urea tank 10, the third liquid port 214 and the fifth liquid port 216 are both connected to the urea pump 20, and the fourth liquid port 215 is connected to the urea nozzle 30, the liquid in the urea nozzle 30 ( Figure 6 The direction indicated by the arrow in the figure is the direction of liquid flow) can enter the valve channel 211 through the fourth liquid port 215, enter the urea pump 20 through the third liquid port 214 for pressurization, and then be delivered to the urea tank 10 through the fifth liquid port 216 and the second liquid port 213, thereby forming a backflow of liquid;

[0060] In summary, the backflow valve 200 can change the liquid delivery direction by sliding the sliding valve 220 in the valve channel 211, thereby simplifying the structure of the backflow valve 200 and reducing the stroke of the sliding valve 220, thereby reducing the overall structural size of the backflow valve 200, which is beneficial to the design layout of the integrated urea pump 20, and reduces the space requirement of the backflow valve 200 during use, thereby expanding the scope of application of the backflow valve 200.

[0061] For further information, please refer to Figures 1-3 In this embodiment, during the movement of the sliding valve 220 in the valve channel 211, it is necessary to change its position between the first position and the second position according to the needs of use. Therefore, in order to reduce its stroke during the movement process and thus reduce the structural volume of the backflow valve 200, the elastic member 230 and the force-enhancing component 240 are respectively used to apply external forces to the two ends of the sliding valve 220 along the opening direction of the valve channel 211, and the sliding direction of the sliding valve 220 when the external force exerted by the force-enhancing component 240 on the sliding valve 220 disappears is opposite to the sliding direction when the force-enhancing component 240 applies external force to the sliding valve 220. That is, under the action of the elastic member 230 and the force-enhancing component 240, the sliding valve 220 reciprocates in the valve channel 211 and changes its position between the first position and the second position, thereby changing the flow direction of the liquid in the backflow valve 200.

[0062] Further, please refer to Figure 4, in this embodiment, when the slide valve 220 cooperates with the valve passage 211, by sliding the slide valve 220 relative to the valve passage 211, the communication state among the first liquid port 212, the second liquid port 213, the third liquid port 214, the fourth liquid port 215 and the fifth liquid port 216 can be adjusted. Therefore, along the axial direction of the slide valve 220, a first annular groove 221, a second annular groove 222 and a third annular groove 223 are sequentially arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the slide valve 220;

[0063] Please refer to Figures 2-5 , when the slide valve 220 is in the first position, both the first liquid port 212 and the third liquid port 214 are connected to the first annular groove 221, and both the fourth liquid port 215 and the fifth liquid port 216 are connected to the second annular groove 222;

[0064] Please refer to Figures 2-4 , and in combination with Figure 6 , when the slide valve 220 is in the second position, both the third liquid port 214 and the fourth liquid port 215 are connected to the second annular groove 222, and both the fifth liquid port 216 and the second liquid port 213 are connected to the third annular groove 223.

[0065] During this process, in order to improve the sealing performance of the contact surface between the valve passage 211 and the slide valve 220, the backflush valve 200 further includes a first annular seal ring, a second annular seal ring, a third annular seal ring and a fourth annular seal ring; along the axial direction of the slide valve 220, the first annular seal ring, the second annular seal ring, the third annular seal ring and the fourth annular seal ring are sequentially sleeved on the slide valve 220, and the first annular groove 221 is located between the first annular seal ring and the second annular seal ring, the second annular groove 222 is located between the second annular seal ring and the third annular seal ring, and the third annular groove 223 is located between the third annular seal ring and the fourth annular seal ring. With such a setting method, since the first annular seal ring, the second annular seal ring, the third annular seal ring and the fourth annular seal ring all form an initial compression amount by relying on the structure, it can avoid leakage and pressure fluctuations and is not affected by the position accuracy of the slide valve 220, thereby improving the sealing ability and the accuracy of injection metering.

[0066] Further, please refer to Figures 1-6 , in this embodiment, when setting the force increasing component 240, the force increasing component 240 may include a force increasing cylinder 241, an energy storage cylinder 242 and a solenoid valve 243; the solenoid valve 243 is connected to the energy storage cylinder 242 and the force increasing cylinder 241; the force increasing cylinder 241 is connected to the second liquid port 213.

[0067] Among them, when the solenoid valve 243 blocks the energy storage cylinder 242 from the force amplifying cylinder 241, the external force exerted by the force amplifying component 240 on the spool valve 220 disappears. The spool valve 220 moves relative to the valve passage 211 to the first position under the action of the elastic component 230, and makes the first liquid port 212 communicate with the third liquid port 214, and the fourth liquid port 215 communicate with the fifth liquid port 216. Therefore, the liquid in the urea tank 10 can enter the valve passage 211 from the first liquid port 212, enter the urea pump 20 through the third liquid port 214 for pressurization, and then be transported to the urea nozzle 30 through the fifth liquid port 216 and the fourth liquid port 215. At the same time, the pressurized liquid output by the urea pump 20 enters the energy storage cylinder 242, so that the energy storage cylinder 242 stores pressurized liquid;

[0068] When the solenoid valve 243 connects the energy storage cylinder 242 with the force amplifying cylinder 241, the pressurized liquid in the energy storage cylinder 242 enters the force amplifying cylinder 241, and the force amplifying cylinder 241 applies an external force to the spool valve 220 to make the spool valve 220 move relative to the valve passage 211 to the second position. Therefore, the liquid in the urea nozzle 30 can enter the valve passage 211 from the fourth liquid port 215, enter the urea pump 20 through the third liquid port 214 for pressurization, and then be transported to the urea tank 10 through the fifth liquid port 216 and the second liquid port 213, thus forming a reverse suction of the liquid.

[0069] In the above process, in order to enable the liquid in the valve passage 211 to enter the energy storage cylinder 242, the valve body 210 is further provided with a sixth liquid port 217 communicating with the valve passage 211. The sixth liquid port 217 is communicated with the energy storage cylinder 242 and the second annular groove 222; in addition, in order to prevent the liquid in the energy storage cylinder 242 from flowing back into the valve passage 211, the force amplifying component 240 further includes a check valve 244.

Then, the liquid in the urea nozzle 30 can enter the valve passage 211 through the fourth liquid port 215, enter the urea pump 20 through the third liquid port 214 for pressurization, and then be transported to the urea tank 10 through the fifth liquid port 216 and the second liquid port 213, thus forming a reverse suction of the liquid.
