Implementation

[0014] like Figure 1The buffer spring type soft seal safety valve shown in the figure comprises a valve body 1, a valve seat 2, a valve disc 27, a recoil disc 4, a guide sleeve 7, a valve cover 8, and a pressure setting device. The valve seat 2 is installed in the inlet cavity 16 of the valve body 1, and a metal sealing surface is provided at its upper end. An adjusting ring 3 is arranged outside the metal sealing surface. The opening height of the valve disc 27 is adjusted by adjusting the axial position of the adjusting ring 3. The valve disc 27 is made of fluoroplastic material and is fixedly installed on the lower end surface of the recoil disc 4. A sealing surface 29 that cooperates with the metal sealing surface of the valve seat is arranged in its lower plane. The guide column 17 on the upper part of the recoil disc 4 is movably matched with the guide hole of the guide sleeve 7. The pressure setting device includes a valve stem 9, a spring 10, and an adjusting screw sleeve 12. The spring 10 is installed between the upper and lower spring seats on the valve stem 9. The adjusting screw sleeve 12 is threadedly installed on the valve cover 8, and its lower end is pressed against the upper end surface of the upper spring seat 11. A valve cap 13 is installed on the upper end of the valve cover 8 to prevent dust from entering the spring cavity. The device is characterized in that a buffer device is arranged between the guide sleeve 7 and the recoil disc 4, and the buffer device is composed of a buffer block 19 movably installed in the inner cavity of the guide column 17. A pressure cavity 31 is formed between the left end surface of the buffer block 19 and the inner cavity of the guide column 17, and a limit step arranged on the lower side of the right end is connected to the guide column 17. A return spring 20 is installed between the limit blocks 21 on the right side of the inner cavity; the pressure chamber 31 is connected to the outlet cavity 15 through the upper pressure-introducing hole 30 in the buffer block 19, the middle pressure-introducing hole 28 and the lower pressure-introducing hole 26 on the guide column 17, and a one-way valve is arranged between the middle pressure-introducing hole 28 and the lower pressure-introducing hole 26 on the guide column 17. The one-way valve is composed of a one-way valve disc 25 and a return spring 24. A conical sealing surface is arranged on the lower end surface of the one-way valve disc 25, and the sealing surface on the step in the lower pressure-introducing hole 26 cooperates with each other to form a sealing pair. The return spring 24 is installed between the upper end surface of the one-way valve disc 25 and the lower end surface of the plug 22, and the plug 22 Installed in the recoil disc 4 just above the lower pressure-introducing hole 26, when the valve disc 27 is closed, the one-way valve disc 25 is pushed by the return spring 24 to seal with the sealing surface on the step in the lower pressure-introducing hole 26. When the valve disc 27 is opened, the medium pressure pushes the one-way valve disc 25 to overcome the elastic push of the return spring 24 to open. The recoil disc 4 is provided with a pressure relief hole 23 connecting the middle pressure-introducing hole 28 and the outlet cavity 15. After the one-way valve disc 25 is closed, the medium in the pressure chamber 31 is discharged to the outlet cavity 15 through the pressure relief hole 23. A cushion block 14 is arranged at the center of the back of the recoil disc 4 to facilitate the processing of the vertical hole of the middle pressure-introducing hole 28, such as Figure 3 As shown, the lower end of the valve stem 9 presses against the center of the upper end surface of the cushion block 14; an upper buffer slope 32 is provided on the upper side of the lower limit step at the right end of the buffer block 19, and a lower buffer slope 33 is provided on the guide sleeve 7 to cooperate with the upper buffer slope 32 on the buffer block 19. When the valve flap 27 is opened, the recoil disc 4 rises, and the buffer block 19 moves rightward under the pressure in the pressure chamber 31, and its upper buffer slope 32 is inserted into the lower buffer slope 33 on the guide sleeve 7, as shown in FIG. Figure 2As shown; when the valve flap 27 is closed, the buffer block 19 moves from the lower buffer slope 33 to the lower left, and at the same time, the medium pressure in the pressure chamber 31 has a damping effect on the leftward movement of the buffer block 19, thereby reducing the closing speed of the valve flap 27 and reducing the impact between the valve flap 27 and the valve seat 2.

[0015] The lower buffer slope 33 is arranged on the lower bottom surface of the buffer window 18 on the right side of the guide sleeve 7. Figure 4 shown.

[0016] An anti-rotation rod 5 and an anti-rotation groove 6 that cooperate with each other are provided between the outer circumferential surface of the guide column 17 of the recoil disc 4 and the guide sleeve 7 to prevent the recoil disc 4 from rotating when it moves up and down.

[0017] Working process:

[0018] Opening process: when the medium pressure in the inlet chamber 16 reaches the set pressure value, the upward force of the medium on the valve disc 27 is greater than the downward force of the spring 10 on the valve disc 27 through the valve stem 9, the valve disc 27 and the recoil disk 4 move upward, and the valve opens. At this time, the medium in the outlet chamber 15 pushes the one-way valve disc 25 upward, the lower pressure-introducing hole 26 is connected to the middle pressure-introducing hole 28, and the medium enters the pressure chamber 31 through the lower pressure-introducing hole 26, the middle pressure-introducing hole 28 and the upper pressure-introducing hole 30 in turn. The medium in the pressure chamber 31 pushes the buffer block 19 to move right, and the right part of the buffer block 19 enters the buffer window 18, and the upper buffer slope 32 is pressed and contacted with the lower buffer slope 33.

[0019] Closing process: when the medium pressure in the inlet chamber 16 reaches the return seat pressure value, the upward force of the medium on the valve disc 27 is less than the downward force of the spring 10 on the valve disc 27 through the valve stem 9, and the valve disc 27 and the recoil disk 4 move downward. At this time, the one-way valve disc 25 moves downward and closes under the action of the return spring 24, and the lower pressure-introducing hole 26 is cut off from the middle pressure-introducing hole 28. At the same time, the buffer block 19 moves to the lower left along the lower buffer slope 33 under the downward push of the return spring 20 and the valve stem 9. At this time, the medium in the pressure chamber 31 is compressed and slowly released from the pressure relief hole 23, which has a damping effect on the leftward movement of the buffer block 19, slowing down the leftward movement speed of the buffer block 19, and at the same time slowing down the downward movement speed of the valve disc 27 and the recoil disk 4, reducing the impact force of the sealing surface of the valve disc 27 on the sealing surface of the valve seat 2, and preventing the sealing surface of the valve disc 27 from being damaged by the impact.
