DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0037] To make the technical problems solved, the technical solutions adopted, and the technical effects achieved by the present invention more clearly understood, embodiments of the technical solutions of the present invention are described in further detail below. It is apparent that the described embodiments are only a portion of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. All other embodiments derived by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0038] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "connected," "connected," and "fixed" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they may refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integration; mechanical connections or electrical connections; direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and internal communication between two components or interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention in specific circumstances.
[0039] In the present invention, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, a first feature being "above" or "below" a second feature may include the first and second features being in direct contact, or may include the first and second features being in contact not directly but through another feature between them. Furthermore, a first feature being "above," "above," and "above" a second feature may include the first feature being directly above or obliquely above the second feature, or may simply mean that the first feature is higher in level than the second feature. A first feature being "below," "below," and "below" a second feature may include the first feature being directly below or obliquely below the second feature, or may simply mean that the first feature is lower in level than the second feature.
[0040] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a valve that can be used to open and close pipelines and control flow direction in agricultural irrigation systems. Of course, the valve can also be used in other pipeline systems to adjust and control parameters such as pressure and flow of the conveying medium.
[0041] Specifically, the valve includes a valve body 10, in which a valve cavity and a pressure measuring cavity are formed. The valve cavity is used to convey a flowing medium. The valve cavity and the pressure measuring cavity are connected through a connecting structure so that the pressure in the valve cavity and the pressure measuring cavity are the same. The pressure measuring cavity is provided with a pressure sensor. The connecting structure and the pressure sensor are staggered so that the medium flowing from the valve cavity into the pressure measuring cavity will not directly impact the pressure sensor.
[0042] In this embodiment, a connecting structure is provided on the valve body to connect the valve cavity with the pressure measuring cavity, and the pressure sensor on the pressure measuring cavity is staggered with the connecting structure. When in use, part of the liquid in the valve will enter the pressure measuring cavity and maintain a stable state after filling the entire pressure measuring cavity. The pressure sensor can obtain the pressure of the flowing liquid in the valve by measuring the pressure of the liquid in the pressure measuring cavity. Since the pressure sensor of this embodiment detects the liquid when the liquid in the pressure measuring cavity is kept in a stable state, it will not be affected by the impact of the flowing liquid in the valve cavity during detection, resulting in inaccurate detection results.
[0043] Specifically, the staggered arrangement described in this solution means that the opening of the communication structure is not directly opposite to the installation position of the pressure sensor, that is, the installation position of the pressure sensor is not located on an axis perpendicular to the plane where the opening of the communication structure is located.
[0044] In one embodiment of the present invention, valve body 10 includes a plurality of valve segments, each of which is fixedly connected by a threaded structure. A valve cavity is formed within each of the valve segments, and a pressure measuring cavity is formed on the connecting surfaces of adjacent valve segments. Each of the valve segments is suitable for connecting to pipelines in an irrigation system or other system.
[0045] It is understandable that the specific number of valve sections can be reasonably set according to actual needs, and can be one, two, three or even more.
[0046] Optionally, a groove is provided on the connecting surface of at least one of the two adjacent valve segments. The groove and the connecting surface of the corresponding valve segment together form a pressure measuring chamber, or the grooves on the two valve segments cooperate to form the pressure measuring chamber. The groove is an annular groove provided around the circumference of the valve segment, with sealing rings provided on both sides of the groove. It is understood that the groove can be a full-circumferential groove or a partial-circumferential groove.
[0047] In another embodiment of the present invention, the connecting structure is a connecting hole connecting the valve cavity and the pressure measuring cavity. A sensor mounting hole 111 for mounting a pressure sensor is further provided on the side wall of the pressure measuring cavity. The connecting hole and the sensor mounting hole 111 are staggered.
[0048] The pressure measuring chamber of this embodiment is a closed structure, and is only provided with a sensor mounting hole 111 and a connecting hole. The sensor mounting hole 111 is used to install the pressure sensor, and the connecting hole is used to connect it with the valve chamber. Therefore, when measuring pressure in a stable state, the liquid in the pressure measuring chamber remains stationary, and the pressure sensor will not be impacted by the flowing liquid in the valve chamber, resulting in inaccurate detection.
[0049] Optionally, a control module 45 is further included, one end of the pressure sensor is connected to the control module 45, and the other end is installed in the sensor installation hole 111. The pressure sensor of this embodiment can transmit the measured pressure value to the control module 45.
[0050] It is understandable that the pressure sensor of this embodiment can be installed in the sensor mounting hole 111 by common installation methods such as threaded connection.
[0051] refer to Figure 3 In one embodiment of the present invention, the valve body 10 includes a first valve section 11, a second valve section 12 and a third valve section 13. A first valve cavity 110 is formed inside the first valve section 11. The second valve section 12 and the third valve section 13 are respectively connected to the first valve section 11, and together with the first valve section 11, they form a second valve cavity 120 and a third valve cavity 130. The ends of the second valve section 12 and the third valve section 13 away from the first valve section 11 can be connected to pipes in an irrigation system or other piping system through connectors.
[0052] The second valve chamber 120 and the third valve chamber 130 are each provided with a corresponding pressure measuring chamber, and both pressure measuring chambers are equipped with pressure sensors, thereby enabling accurate measurement of the liquid pressures in the second valve chamber 120 and the third valve chamber 130. That is, a second pressure measuring chamber is provided corresponding to the second valve chamber 120, and a second pressure sensor 123 is provided in the second pressure measuring chamber. A third pressure measuring chamber is provided corresponding to the third valve chamber 130, and a third pressure sensor 133 is provided in the third pressure measuring chamber.
[0053] Specifically, a second connecting hole 121 and a third connecting hole 131 are respectively provided on the second valve section 12 and the third valve section 13, and a second annular groove 122 and a third annular groove 132 are respectively formed on the peripheral walls of the second valve section 12 and the third valve section 13. The second annular groove 122 and the third annular groove 132 are respectively connected to the second connecting hole 121 and the third connecting hole 131.
[0054] The second annular groove 122 and the third annular groove 132 also have sealing ring grooves on both sides, and sealing rings are installed in the sealing ring grooves. When the second valve section 12 and the third valve section 13 are connected to the first valve section 11, the second annular groove 122 and the third annular groove 132 respectively cooperate with the inner wall of the first valve cavity 110 to form a closed second pressure measuring cavity and a third pressure measuring cavity.
[0055] Two sensor mounting holes 111 are provided on the first valve section 11 corresponding to the second annular groove 122 and the third annular groove 132. The second pressure sensor 123 and the third pressure sensor 133 are respectively installed in the two sensor mounting holes 111. The two sensor mounting holes 111 are respectively staggered with the second connecting hole 121 and the third connecting hole 131.
[0056] It should be pointed out that the above-mentioned manner of providing a pressure measuring chamber and a pressure sensor in both the second valve chamber 120 and the third valve chamber 130 is not a limitation to the present application. In other embodiments, a solution of providing a pressure measuring chamber and a pressure sensor only on one of the second valve chamber 120 or the third valve chamber 130 can also be adopted.
[0057] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 A valve core 20 is provided in the first valve chamber 110, and the second valve chamber 120 and the third valve chamber 130 are respectively provided on both sides of the first valve chamber 110. The valve core 20 can selectively control the second valve chamber 120 and / or the third valve chamber 130 to be connected to the first valve chamber 110.
[0058] Specifically, refer to Figure 5 The valve core 20 is generally spherical and defines a first valve hole 201, a second valve hole 202, and a third valve hole 203 that are interconnected. The valve core 20 is disposed within the first valve chamber 110. In this embodiment, the valve core 20 can be rotated to simultaneously connect the second valve chamber 120 and the third valve chamber 130 to the first valve chamber 110 through the first valve hole 201, the second valve hole 202, and the third valve hole 203 thereon. It will be appreciated that the valve hole arrangement structure in the above embodiment enables the second valve chamber 120 and the third valve chamber 130 to communicate with the first valve chamber 110 simultaneously. In other embodiments, different valve hole arrangement positions can be adopted, or the number of valve holes can be adjusted to enable the second valve chamber 120 and the third valve chamber 130 to communicate with the first valve chamber 110 separately.
[0059] Optionally, refer to Figure 3 The first valve section 11 is provided with internal threads at both ends, and the second valve section 12 and the third valve section 13 are provided with external threads at their ends. The second valve section 12 and the third valve section 13 are respectively installed on the inner side of the first valve section 11 through the threaded structure. Of course, in other embodiments, the second valve section 12 and the third valve section 13 can also be connected to the first valve section 11 through other methods.
[0060] Furthermore, the valve body 10 further includes a driving device 40 disposed on one side thereof. The driving device 40 is in transmission connection with the valve core 20 and is configured to drive the valve core 20 to move within the first valve chamber 110, thereby achieving communication between the second valve chamber 120 and the third valve chamber 130 and the first valve chamber 110, respectively, or simultaneously. The movement of the valve core 20 within the first valve chamber 110 may be rotation, translation, or swinging. In this embodiment, the rotation of the valve core 29 within the first valve chamber 110 driven by the driving device 40 is used as an example.
[0061] The driving device 40 includes a mounting housing 41 , and a control module 45 is disposed in the mounting housing 41 .
[0062] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, the mounting housing 41 includes an upper housing 411 and a lower housing 412 connected vertically.

The lower housing 412 also defines two first through-holes 4120 corresponding to the sensor mounting holes 111. The first through-holes 4120 allow one end of the second pressure sensor 123 and the third pressure sensor 133 to pass through the mounting housing 41 for connection to the control module 45.

The first gear 431 is in transmission connection with the output shaft of the power device 42, and the second gear 432 is fixedly connected to the worm 434.
[0065] When the transmission assembly 43 is working, the power device 42 drives the first gear 431 to rotate, the first gear 431 drives the second gear 432 and the worm 434 to rotate, the worm 434 drives the worm wheel 433 to rotate, the worm wheel 433 drives the matching piece 44 to rotate, and the matching piece 44 drives the valve core 20 to rotate, thereby controlling the second valve chamber 120 and the third valve chamber 130 to be respectively connected to the first valve chamber 110 or the second valve chamber 120 and the third valve chamber 130 to be simultaneously connected to the first valve chamber 110.

The inserting hole 112 and the second through-hole 4121 are coaxially arranged. The fitting 44 is inserted into the first valve cavity 110 through the inserting hole 112 and the second through-hole 4121 .
[0069] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the valve core 20 is provided with a protrusion 21, and a valve core mating groove 1101 is formed on the periphery of the insertion hole 112 to mate with the protrusion 21. The protrusion 21 is provided with a mating groove 204. The first mating portion 441 is adapted to mate with the mating groove 204 on the valve core 20, the second mating portion 442 is provided through the shaft hole of the worm gear 433, and the connecting portion 443 is adapted to pass through the insertion hole 112 and the second through-hole 4121.

[0072] Furthermore, a valve cover 30 is included, which is connected to the valve body 10 and is used to restrict the valve core 20 in the valve body 10.
[0073] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3A connecting hole 301 is formed in the valve cover 30. The first valve section 11 can be connected to the pipeline of the irrigation system or other systems through the valve cover 30, and the first valve cavity 110 is communicated with the pipeline of the irrigation system or other systems through the connecting hole 301.
