TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of pulse tube cryocooler, and particularly relates to a proportional valve group phase modulation device for a pulse tube cryocooler. BACKGROUND
[0002] The pulse tube cryocooler is a new type of regenerative cryocooler, which eliminates the expeller used for phase adjustment in the traditional cryocooler, so that there is no mechanical moving part in the low temperature area, the structure is simplified, the life is improved, and the vibration is low. The phase between the pressure wave and the mass flow in the pulse tube must be adjusted by the phase modulation device at the hot end of the pulse tube, such as a small hole, a needle valve, an inertance tube or a two-way inlet small hole.
[0003] Among them, the 4K pulse tube cryocooler currently mainly adopts a two-stage separated pulse tube structure and a two-way inlet structure, please refer to Figure 1 , which comprises a helium compressor 100, a gas distribution valve 200, a first-stage gas reservoir 310, a second-stage gas reservoir 320, a first-stage pulse tube gas reservoir small hole 410, a second-stage pulse tube gas reservoir small hole 420, a first-stage pulse tube two-way inlet small hole 510, a second-stage pulse tube two-way inlet small hole 520, a first-stage pulse tube 610, a second-stage pulse tube 620, a first-stage regenerator 710, a second-stage regenerator 720 and the like. The first-stage pulse tube gas reservoir small hole 410, the first-stage pulse tube two-way inlet small hole 510, the second-stage pulse tube gas reservoir small hole 420 and the second-stage pulse tube two-way inlet small hole 520 constitute the phase modulation device of the two-way inlet type pulse tube cryocooler. At present, such a phase modulation device is generally realized in two ways in structure:
[0004] 1. The pulse tube cryocooler for laboratory research and development generally adopts an external pipeline connected needle valve, and the phase of the pulse tube cryocooler is adjusted by adjusting the opening degree of the needle valve.
[0005] 2. The commercial pulse tube cryocooler generally adopts a precise small hole installed in the internal of the pulse tube cryocooler. Since the resistance of the regenerator of each pulse tube cryocooler is different due to assembly errors and the like, the diameter of the small hole needs to be adjusted for each pulse tube cryocooler so that the performance of the pulse tube cryocooler at 4K reaches the index requirement.
[0006] The phase of the pulse tube cryocooler is adjusted by adopting an external pipeline connected needle valve and adjusting the opening degree of the needle valve, which has the disadvantages that the needle valve adjustment error is large, the debugging difficulty is high, each needle valve needs to be manually adjusted, and the efficiency is low. In addition, the needle valve and the pipeline are easy to be collided to cause the position to move during packaging or on-site installation, which will affect the phase of the pulse tube cryocooler and needs to be re-adjusted.
[0007] The phase is adjusted by using a precise small hole structure, which is more difficult, and for each pulse tube refrigerator, a pre-designed and shaped precise small hole needs to be installed for testing, and then according to the test results, a suitable precise small hole or position is replaced; each replacement needs to wait for the pulse tube refrigerator to warm up, and then the replacement is carried out, and then vacuumization, gas replacement, and recooling test are carried out, which needs to consume a considerable long time.
[0008] Whether the phase of the pulse tube refrigerator is adjusted by using an external pipeline connected needle valve to adjust the opening of the needle valve or by using a precise small hole structure, the difficulty is high, errors are easy to occur, a large amount of time is consumed, experienced personnel are needed, and the production and manufacturing of the pulse tube refrigerator are not conducive.
