[0024] The present invention discloses an emptying structure for the self-priming pipeline of a high-pressure cleaning machine, which can shorten the self-priming time to the maximum extent, quickly empty the air in the pipeline, protect and extend the service life of the motor pump, and reduce the friction function loss of the machine. The emptying structure can not only be used in conjunction with the cleaning machine; it can also be used as a separate universal component in conjunction with other tools, extending the scope and width of use;
[0025] like Figures 1 to 7As shown in the figure (the small solid arrow in the figure indicates the flow direction of the liquid, and the small hollow arrow indicates the flow direction of the air), the emptying structure of the self-priming pipeline of the high-pressure cleaning machine includes an emptying pipe 2 connected to the outlet of the pump body pipeline 1, and the emptying pipe 2 is axially formed with a multi-section cavity 2a, and the aperture of each section of the cavity 2a gradually increases from front to back, and the outlet at the rear end of the cavity 2a leads to the nozzle or the switch valve. A cylindrical body 21 is radially formed at a relatively central position on the emptying pipe 2, and an emptying valve cavity 21a is formed in the cylindrical body 21. The emptying valve cavity 21a is axially penetrated from the bottom surface of the cylindrical body 21 to the cavity 2a, and is vertically connected to the cavity 2a. The drain valve 3 is installed in the drain valve cavity 21a. The drain valve 3 can utilize the characteristics of light molecular weight of air, not easy to be compressed, and uncertain shape, while the molecular weight of liquid is heavy, easy to be compressed, and certain shape. When the drain pipe 2 is compressed air, it is opened to discharge air, and when the drain pipe 2 is compressed liquid, it is closed to realize the reflux storage and accumulation of liquid. Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, it is composed of an exhaust valve core 31, an exhaust valve spring 32 and an exhaust valve nut 33.
[0026] In the embodiment Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the drain valve core 31 is slidably arranged in the drain valve cavity 21a, the drain valve nut 33 is sealed and spirally installed in the cavity mouth of the drain valve cavity 21a, the drain valve spring 32 is sleeved on the drain valve core 31, and the upper end of the drain valve spring 32 is pressed on the boss 311 formed on the drain valve core 31, and the lower end of the drain valve spring 32 is in contact with the drain valve nut 33.
[0027] like Figure 5 As shown, the drain valve nut 33 is axially processed with a valve core cavity 33b and a vent hole 33a, and the diameter of the valve core cavity 33b is larger than the diameter of the vent hole 33a. The vent hole 33a and the valve core cavity 33b are connected from bottom to top and pass through the drain valve nut 33. The drain valve spring 32 is press-fitted into the valve core cavity 33b through the drain valve core 31. An arc-shaped sealing surface 33c is formed between the vent hole 33a of the drain valve nut 33 and the valve core cavity 33b, and a conical sealing surface 31c is formed on the drain valve core 31. Figure 4 As shown, when there is compressed liquid in the cavity 2a, under the mass and pressure of the liquid, the compressed liquid can push the drain valve core 31 to compress the drain valve spring 32 to move downward so that the conical sealing surface 31c and the arc-shaped sealing surface 33c seal and block the vent hole 33a. At this time, the liquid will flow back into the cavity 2a, causing the liquid to accumulate and accumulate pressure in the cavity 2a to form high-pressure liquid. Figure 4As shown, when the cavity 2a is filled with compressed air, since the air is light and not easily compressed, the weight and pressure of the compressed air are not enough to push the drain valve core 31 to compress the drain valve spring 32 to close the vent hole 33a. At this time, the drain valve core 31 will push the conical sealing surface 31c and the arc-shaped sealing surface 33c to separate under the spring force of the drain valve spring 32, open the vent hole 33a, and discharge the air in the cavity 2a into the atmosphere.
[0028] In the embodiment Figure 6 As shown, a venting hole is processed in the exhaust valve core 31, and the venting hole is composed of an axial venting hole 31a connected to the hole cavity 2a and a radial hole 31b used to communicate the axial venting hole 31a and the valve core cavity 33b.
[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, two one-way valve groups 4 with completely identical structures are installed in the pump body pipeline 1 of the present invention, and the two one-way valve groups 4 include a first one-way valve group A installed at the inlet 1a of the pump body pipeline 1 and a second one-way valve group B installed at the outlet of the pump body pipeline 1. A plunger cavity Q is connected to the pump body pipeline 1 between the first one-way valve group A and the second one-way valve group B, and a plunger assembly 5 is provided in the plunger cavity Q to realize the suction and discharge functions by changing the volume of the plunger cavity Q.
[0030] like Figure 7 As shown, the one-way valve assembly 4 of the present invention is composed of a one-way valve bracket 41, a one-way valve seat 42, a one-way valve spring 43 and a one-way valve core 44. The one-way valve bracket 41 and the one-way valve seat 42 cooperate to form a one-way valve core cavity, the one-way valve core 44 is movably arranged in the one-way valve core cavity, the one-way valve spring 43 is press-fitted into the one-way valve core cavity through the one-way valve core 44, the one-way valve seat 42 is formed with a sealing cone 42a, and the front end of the one-way valve core 44 is formed with a sealing head 441 for sealingly cooperating with the sealing cone 42a.
[0031] from Figure 1 As can be seen in the figure, the plunger assembly 5 is composed of a plunger 51 capable of reciprocating motion, a return spring 52 and a spring chuck 53. The spring chuck 53 is positioned and clamped on the lower end of the plunger 51, the return spring 52 is fitted with the plunger 1, and the upper end of the return spring 52 presses on the pump body, and the lower end of the return spring 52 is in contact with the spring chuck 53.
[0032] The emptying structure of the present invention utilizes the principle of one-way conduction and closing of two one-way valve groups 4 arranged in the pump body pipeline 1, combined with the emptying pipe 2 and the emptying valve 3, to quickly empty the air in the pipeline and shorten the self-priming time of the high-pressure cleaning machine. The specific implementation process is as follows:
[0033] A: In the initial state of the motor pump, the two one-way valve groups 4 are under the elastic pressure of the one-way valve spring 43, so that the sealing head 441 of the one-way valve core 44 is tightly pressed against the sealing cone surface 42a of the one-way valve seat 42, realizing the one-way conduction and sealing functions.
[0034] B: When the motor rotates and drives the plunger 51 to move downward, the volume of the plunger cavity Q increases (such as Figure 1 As shown in the figure, negative pressure is formed, so that the second one-way valve group B is closed under the action of the one-way valve spring 43, and the first one-way valve group A pushes the one-way valve core 44 to open the one-way valve under the action of the negative pressure, completing a suction (negative pressure) process.
[0035] C: When the motor rotates and drives the plunger 51 to move upward, the volume of the plunger cavity Q becomes smaller (such as Figure 2 As shown in the figure, high pressure is formed, so that the first one-way valve group A is closed under the action of the one-way valve spring 43, and the second one-way valve group B pushes the one-way valve core 44 to open the one-way valve under the action of high pressure, and releases the pressure to the exhaust pipe 2 (cavity 2a), completing a discharge process.
[0036] D: The motor continues to work, the plunger 51 continuously reciprocates, and accordingly the first one-way valve group A and the second one-way valve group B are continuously opened or closed, completing the suction and discharge functions and realizing the high-pressure energy storage process.
[0037] a: When compressed air is discharged from the second one-way valve group B, the compressed air enters the cavity 2a of the exhaust pipe 2. At this time, due to the characteristics of air molecules being light, difficult to be compressed, and having uncertain shapes, the air in the cavity 2a does not have enough mass and friction to close the exhaust valve 3. Figure 3 As shown, the compressed air in the cavity 2a is discharged into the atmosphere through the venting channel of the exhaust valve core 31 and the venting hole 33a of the exhaust valve nut 33.
[0038] b: When compressed liquid (such as water) is discharged from the second one-way valve group B, the compressed liquid enters the cavity 2a of the drain pipe 2. Due to the characteristics of the compressed liquid such as heavy mass, easy compression, and morphological certainty, the high-pressure liquid has sufficient mass pressure in the cavity 2a, which will push the drain valve core 31 to compress the drain valve spring 32 and move downward to close the drain valve 3. The compressed liquid cannot be discharged through the drain valve 3 and will return to the cavity 2a for storage and accumulation. Through continuous pressure input, high-pressure liquid is finally formed to achieve the function of physical pressurization.
[0039] The present invention has a simple design, few parts, flexible and convenient assembly and use, mature manufacturing conditions and technology, can shorten the self-priming time to the maximum extent, and meet the use requirements as quickly as possible; reduce the damage caused by mutual dynamic friction between the plunger and the sealing parts of the cleaning machine motor pump; complete the rapid emptying of air in the pipeline, shorten the self-priming use time, protect and extend the service life and function loss of the motor pump, etc.
[0040] The best embodiment of the present invention has been described, and various changes or modifications made by those skilled in the art will not depart from the scope of the present invention.
