Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a two-position three-way valve, and in particular to a manually pressable two-position three-way gas switching valve. Background Art

[0002] A two-position three-way valve has two working positions and three interfaces. It is generally a solenoid valve, but there are also manual valves. The two-position three-way valve used for gas switching is called a two-position three-way gas switching valve, also known as a two-position three-way gas reversing valve. It is a valve that switches gas from one outlet to another.

[0003] Two-position three-way gas switching valves are mostly solenoid valves, but there are also manual valves. In some specific applications, such as aviation oxygen supply systems, manual two-position three-way gas switching valves are generally used to control the conversion between normal oxygen supply mode and continuous oxygen supply (or emergency oxygen supply) mode.

[0004] The traditional manual two-position three-way gas switching valve has the following defects: during the switching operation, the seal is in close contact with the rotating part, and the seal needs to withstand the friction during the rotation of the rotating part. After repeated use, the seal is easy to wear, resulting in a decrease in sealing performance and a shortened product life. For example, traditional ball valves and butterfly valves all have this problem; in addition, the operating mode and interface of the traditional manual two-position three-way gas switching valve are not suitable for some specific application scenarios of the aviation oxygen supply system. For example, the bottom of the gas switching valve needs to be connected to other components to achieve the purpose of oxygen entering the valve, but the traditional manual two-position three-way gas switching valve does not have such an interface structure.

The sealing cover 10 is placed above the compression spring limiting cover 13 and is connected to the lower end of the vertical operating rod 3. The two sides between the two ends of the sealing cover 10 are respectively concave to form a waist-shaped groove 21. One end of the two ends of the sealing cover 10 is provided with a sealing gasket mounting groove 22 and the sealing gasket 11 is installed in the sealing gasket mounting groove.

The gas path reversing member 7 is located above the sealing cover 10 and the operating rod 3 passes through the central through hole of the gas path reversing member 7. The lower end surface of the gas path reversing member 7 is provided with a downwardly protruding and annular first air inlet sealing end 8 and a second air inlet sealing end 9. The first air inlet sealing end 8 can be sealed with the sealing gasket 11, and the second air inlet sealing end 9 can be sealed with the sealing gasket 11. The blind hole 20 is sealed, and a first air vent 6 (an "L"-shaped through hole in the figure) and a second air vent 31 (a vertical straight through hole in the figure) are provided in the air path reversing member 7. The first air vent 6 is communicated with the first air inlet sealing end 8 and the first air outlet 27, and the second air vent 31 is communicated with the second air inlet sealing end 9 and the second air outlet 26.

[0032] In order to facilitate the selection of air outlets at different positions according to actual conditions, a first side air outlet 16 communicating with the first air vent 6 and a second side air outlet 15 communicating with the second air vent 31 are provided on the side wall of the base inner cavity 30. The first side air outlet 16 and the second side air outlet 15 are respectively installed with a plug 28 (the plug 28 is only installed at Figure 7 shown in the figure, not shown in other figures).

[0033] Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 7-10 Also shown is a connecting rod 2 for connecting the handle 1 and the operating rod 3.

At this time, the second air inlet sealing end 9 of the air path reversing member 7 is sealed by the sealing blind hole 20 on the sealing cover 10, and the first air inlet sealing end 8 of the air path reversing member 7 is connected to the first air outlet 27. The gas passes through the first air inlet sealing end 8, the first vent hole 6, and the first air channel 29 in sequence and is then sent out from the first air outlet 27. Figure 7 and Figure 9 As shown; when the gas path needs to be changed, the handle 1 is rotated 90° by hand, the sealing cover 10 is rotated 90°, the first air inlet sealing end 8 of the gas path reversing member 7 is sealed by the sealing gasket 11, and the second air inlet sealing end 9 of the gas path reversing member 7 is connected to the second air outlet 26. The gas passes through the second air inlet sealing end 9, the second vent 31, the second air channel and then is sent out from the second air outlet 26. Figure 8 and Figure 10 If the gas-using components need to be connected to the side walls of the base 17, remove the plugs 28 of the first side air outlet 16 and the second side air outlet 15 and plug the first air outlet 27 and the second air outlet 26 respectively, and then connect the two gas-using components to the first side air outlet 16 and the second side air outlet 15 respectively.
