Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of sampling valve technology, and in particular relates to a three-way sampling valve. Background Technology

[0002] In oil pipelines, or in the feed oil storage system of oil-to-hydrogen units in oil refining and high-end synthetic new materials projects, it is necessary to regularly sample and test the oil to ensure its quality and prevent problems. In particular, if the oil is contaminated during the filling of storage tanks, the entire tank can be easily polluted. However, most existing sampling methods use top-of-tank sampling valves or valve sampling, which are prone to danger due to their location. Therefore, a three-way sampling valve is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a three-way sampling valve that uses a threaded ring and a threaded sleeve in combination. When the product is not in use, the threaded ring can be screwed into the threaded sleeve by turning the handle, thereby fixing the slide rod and piston. The piston also seals the extension tube to prevent oil leakage. Furthermore, air can be manually discharged to prevent air from entering the downstream oil pump, thus preventing pump damage and extending the service life of the oil pump. This invention solves the existing technical problems.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0005] A three-way sampling valve, comprising:

[0006] The valve body has a first flow channel, a second flow channel, a third flow channel and a fourth flow channel respectively around its perimeter. One end of the fourth flow channel is threaded to a connector, and the other end of the connector is threaded to a sampling element. The sampling element is a pressure relief connector for media pressure relief or a sampling tube connector for sampling.

[0007] The bottom of the first flow channel is fixedly connected to a recovery pipe, one side of the recovery pipe is fixedly connected to an extension pipe, the other end of the extension pipe is vertically upward and is circumferentially fitted with a connecting sleeve, the bottom of the connector is fixedly connected to a pressure discharge pipe, and the outer circumferential wall of the pressure discharge pipe is provided with threads that cooperate with the connecting sleeve.

[0008] Furthermore, a fixing frame is fixedly connected to the inner circumference of the recovery pipe, a retaining ring is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing frame, and a through mounting rod is slidably connected to one side of the fixing frame. A sealing cone that cooperates with the retaining ring is fixedly connected to one end of the mounting rod, and a spring is fixedly connected between the other end of the mounting rod and the fixing frame. A through sliding rod is inserted into one end of the recovery pipe, and a piston is slidably connected inside the recovery pipe. The piston is fixed to one end of the sliding rod. By installing an extension pipe and a recovery pipe between the fourth flow channel and the first flow channel, when sampling oil in the tanker, the oil can be manually injected into the first flow channel, avoiding the discharge of oil during sampling, improving the cleanliness of the oil, and avoiding manual subsequent oil processing operations, thus improving the environmental quality at the site.

[0009] Furthermore, a handle is rotatably connected to the other end of the slide rod, and a threaded ring is fixedly connected to one side of the handle. A threaded sleeve that mates with the threaded ring is fixedly connected to one end of the recovery tube. The threaded sleeve and the threaded ring work together to fix the position of the slide rod and the piston, thereby improving the safety of use.

[0010] Furthermore, an exhaust pipe is fixedly connected to the top of the recovery pipe, and a float is movably connected inside the exhaust pipe. A limit ring is fixedly connected to the inner circumference of the exhaust pipe, and each limit ring has a through-hole in the middle. The bottom of the upper limit ring has a groove for cooperating with the float. A sealing exhaust head is threaded to the top of the exhaust pipe. By installing an exhaust pipe around the circumference of the recovery pipe, the air flowing in during sampling can enter the exhaust pipe and then be manually discharged, preventing air from entering the subsequent oil pump, thus preventing damage to the oil pump and improving its service life.

[0011] Furthermore, a valve core is rotatably connected to the valve body, and a valve stem is fixedly connected to the top of the valve core. The valve core is a three-way valve.

[0012] Furthermore, the top of the valve stem rotates through the valve body and is fixedly connected to a handwheel.

[0013] Furthermore, a sealing gasket for sealing the valve core is installed inside the valve body, and a disc spring for abutting the sealing gasket is provided on one side of the sealing gasket.

[0014] Furthermore, a plug is threadedly connected to one end of the third flow channel.

[0015] In this invention, the first flow channel is connected to the inlet end of the oil storage tank. During feeding, the valve core side outlet of the three-way valve is rotated to the third flow channel. The second flow channel is connected to the tank truck, thereby adding oil to the oil storage tank. When sampling into the tank truck, the connecting sleeve is threaded to the pressure relief pipe. Then, the valve core is rotated by the valve stem to connect the second and fourth flow channels. The pressure relief connector is loosened, and then the handle is rotated to separate the threaded ring and the threaded sleeve. The piston is then pulled out by the handle. At this time, the oil in the fourth flow channel enters the recovery pipe along the extension pipe. Then, the piston is pushed to inject the oil into the first pipe. After entering the recovery pipe, the oil is squeezed and thus seals the pipe. The cone opens, allowing oil to enter the first flow channel. This process is repeated to drain the oil remaining in the fourth pipe. After drainage, the piston is reset, and then the valve core is reset. The piston is then operated in the same way again to drain the remaining oil and pressure in the fourth flow channel. The pressure relief connector is then removed and replaced with a sampling pipe connector. The valve core is opened again to sample the oil in the tanker. After sampling, the valve core and pressure relief connector are reset. When there are air bubbles in the recovery pipe, the air bubbles enter the threaded ring, the float descends, pushes the piston, compresses the air in the exhaust pipe, and then the exhaust head is opened to discharge the air. The float is then lifted by the oil and cooperates with the upper limit ring to seal the oil.

[0016] When taking samples from the oil storage tank, the first and fourth flow channels are connected by controlling the valve core. Then, the pressure relief connector is rotated to allow the pressure relief pipe to leak out and discharge the remaining oil in the fourth flow channel. After discharge, the valve core is reset, pressure is released, and the sampling tube is replaced to complete the sampling.

[0017] The embodiments of the present invention have the following beneficial effects:

[0018] In this invention, by installing an extension pipe and a recovery pipe between the fourth flow channel and the first flow channel, when sampling oil in the tanker, the oil can be manually injected into the first flow channel, avoiding the discharge of oil during sampling, improving the cleanliness of the oil, and avoiding manual subsequent oil processing operations, thus improving the environmental quality at the site.

[0019] In this invention, by installing an exhaust pipe around the circumference of the recovery pipe, the air flowing in during the sampling process can enter the exhaust pipe and then be manually discharged, thus preventing air from entering the subsequent oil pump, preventing damage to the oil pump, and improving the service life of the oil pump.

[0020] In this invention, by using a threaded ring and a threaded sleeve together, when the product is not in use, the threaded ring can be screwed into the threaded sleeve by turning the handle, thereby fixing the slide rod and piston. The piston also seals the extension tube to prevent oil leakage. Furthermore, air can be manually expelled, preventing air from entering the subsequent oil pump, thus preventing pump damage and extending the service life of the oil pump.

[0021] In this invention, oil is manually injected into the first flow channel, which avoids the oil being discharged during sampling, improves the cleanliness of the oil, and avoids the need for subsequent manual oil processing, thereby improving the environmental quality at the site.

[0022] Of course, any product implementing this invention does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description
