Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of automotive piping technology, and in particular to a connection device that facilitates the adjustment of flow rate and direction. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, automotive piping systems aim to control the flow of fluid media to different pipe branches under varying temperature conditions, especially when the fluid medium temperature rises during use, requiring timely heat dissipation and cooling. This is primarily achieved by adding a thermostat component. However, since it's positioned along a single pipe flow direction, the thermostat's efficiency is significantly reduced when the fluid medium temperature rises, even with circulating flow, due to insufficient heat dissipation. Furthermore, due to unstable temperature control, the fluid medium flow rate remains unstable even when adjusting the flow direction. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a connecting device that facilitates the adjustment of flow direction and can stably regulate flow rate, and facilitates the adjustment of flow rate and direction.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A connecting device for easy adjustment of flow rate and direction is provided, comprising a lower housing with an inlet and a first outlet, and an upper housing sleeved with the lower housing. A second outlet is connected to the upper housing, and an upper support seat connected to the second outlet is sleeved thereon. A knob is inserted into the upper housing, and the insertion end of the knob is provided with a connecting plate that fits against the inner wall of the upper housing. A lever is provided on the connecting plate. An adjusting assembly is provided inside the lower housing. The adjusting assembly includes an upper valve core elastically disposed and fitted against the inner wall of the upper support seat, and a lower support seat elastically connected to the upper valve core. The lower support seat abuts against the upper support seat. One end of the upper valve core fits against the lever, and the other end extends through the lower support seat and is sleeved with the lower valve core used to block the first outlet.

[0005] The above structure, with its fitted upper and lower housings ensuring a tight seal during installation, simplifies the structure and reduces weight by placing only an adjustment component that fits into the internal cavity formed by the two housings. An upper valve core blocks the second outlet, and a lever connected to the knob opens the second outlet by moving the fitted upper valve core, simultaneously moving the lower valve core to block the first outlet, thus regulating the flow direction. The lever, fitted to the upper valve core, moves gradually, stopping the knob rotation during this movement. This allows for simultaneous opening of both the first and second outlets, and the opening size of the second outlet is controlled by the lever's position. The split flow between the two outlets enables unidirectional flow control, resulting in a simple, compact structure and convenient operation.

A limiting block 301 is provided on the positioning ring 31. A relief groove 221 is provided on the upper support 22 at the position corresponding to the limiting block 301. When the lower support is placed into the lower housing 1, the positioning ring 31 overlaps the stepped surface of the third stepped hole 24. The outer end face of the positioning ring 31 abuts against the end face of the corresponding end of the upper valve core 5. The limiting block 301 is placed in the limiting groove 241 and the relief groove 221 covers the outside of the limiting block 301 to position and install the lower support.

[0039] An annular groove is provided at the protruding end of the connecting rod 50, and a retaining spring 52 is embedded in the annular groove.

[0040] A first placement groove is provided on the inner sidewall of the lower valve core 6 at the position where the connecting rod 50 passes through, and an inner sealing ring 60 is provided in the first placement groove. The outer sidewall of the inner sealing ring 60 is in contact with the outer sidewall of the connecting rod 50. A second placement groove is provided on the outer sidewall of the lower valve core 6, and a first outer sealing ring 61 is provided in the second placement groove. An annular groove for embedding a second outer sealing ring 53 is provided on the outer sidewall of the upper valve core 5, and the outer sidewall of the second outer sealing ring 53 is in contact with the hole wall at the small hole end of the second stepped hole 20. An annular groove for embedding a third outer sealing ring 25 is provided on the outer sidewall of the upper support 22, and the outer sidewall of the third outer sealing ring 25 is in contact with the inner wall of the upper housing 2.

[0041] A boss surface 26 is provided on the inner side of the lower housing 1 at the feed end position corresponding to the first discharge port 11. When the lower valve core 6 moves down, the outer side wall of the lower valve core 6 abuts against the boss surface 26 for limiting.

[0042] The working principle of this invention is as follows:

[0043] Depend on Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 10As shown, during installation, first, the knob 4 is inserted through the upper housing 2, the connecting plate 40 abuts against the bottom of the upper housing 2, then the upper support 22 is placed in, and the stepped surface of the second stepped hole 20 abuts against the end face of the corresponding end of the connecting plate 40 for limiting, and the outer wall of the third outer sealing ring 25 is in contact with the inner wall of the upper housing 2; then, the upper valve core 5 is placed in the upper support 22, the corresponding end of the lever 41 is placed in the arc-shaped notch, the rounded protrusion abuts against the corresponding end face of the connecting plate 40, and the outer edge wall of the lever 41 is in contact with the outer wall of the arc-shaped notch, and the outer wall of the second outer sealing ring 53 is in contact with the hole wall of the small hole end of the second stepped hole 20. In this way, the lever 41 blocks the feeding position of the second discharge port 21, and at the same time, the hole wall of the second stepped hole 20 and the inner wall of the upper housing 2 are sealed by the sealing ring, so that no liquid can leak out.

[0044] Next, as Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figures 6 to 10 As shown, the lower support base and the upper support base 22 are placed in abutment. At the same time, the compression spring 51 is sleeved on the outside of the connecting rod 50, and one end of the compression spring 51 is sleeved on the outer side wall of the boss 34. The connecting rod 50 passes through the fixing plate 32 and the guide block 501 extends into the guide groove 321. The end of the connecting rod 50 is provided with an annular groove, and a backstop spring 52 is embedded in the annular groove. The lower valve core 6 is sleeved on the outer side wall of the end of the connecting rod 50. The middle part of the lower valve core 6 is provided with a groove, and a backstop ring 7 is sleeved on the outside of the connecting rod 50 in the groove. The outer side wall of the backstop ring 7 abuts against the outer side wall of the fixing plate 32, and the outer side wall of the lower valve core 6 abuts against the inner side wall of the backstop spring 52.

[0045] Finally, the lower support is placed into the lower housing 1. At this time, the positioning ring 31 overlaps the step surface of the third step hole 24. The outer end face of the positioning ring 31 abuts against the end face of the corresponding end of the upper valve core 5. The limiting block 301 is placed in the limiting groove 241 and the clearance groove 221 covers the outside of the limiting block 301 to position and install the lower support. At the same time, it ensures that the upper support 22 does not move when the knob 4 is rotated, and avoids the rotation interference of the toggle block 41. Meanwhile, one end of the lower housing 1 is inserted into the large end of the first step hole 13. The end face of the large end of the first step hole 13 abuts against the end face of the corresponding end of the boss 23, and the end face of the lower housing 1 inserted abuts against the step surface of the first step hole 13, realizing the sleeve connection between the upper housing 2 and the lower housing 1. At the same time, the feed port 10 and the first discharge port 11 are in a connected state, and the second discharge port 21 is blocked.

[0046] When using, such as Figure 10 and Figure 11As shown, the initial state is that the inlet 10 and the first outlet 11 are connected, and the second outlet 21 is blocked. When it is necessary to change the flow direction, the knob 4 is turned, which simultaneously drives the connecting plate 40 and the lever 41 to rotate. The outer edge of the lever 41 moves along the outer wall of the arc-shaped notch and begins to squeeze the arc-shaped notch at the high end of the arc, causing the upper valve core 5 to move towards the first outlet 11. As the upper valve core 5 moves, the outer wall of the second outer sealing ring 53 leaves the hole wall at the small hole end of the second stepped hole 20. The upper valve core 5 continues to move, and the guide block 501 is in... The guide groove 321 continues to slide. When the connecting rod 50 synchronously drives the outer wall of the lower valve core 6 to abut and limit the engagement with the boss surface 26, the first outer sealing ring 61 abuts against the inner wall of the lower housing 1, and the first discharge port 11 is blocked. At this time, the outer edge of the lever 41 fits against the rounded protrusion connected between the two arc-shaped notches, and the lever 41 no longer blocks the arc-shaped notches. A through hole connected to the second discharge port 21 is provided at the position of the arc-shaped notch on one side of the upper support seat 22. At this time, the second discharge port 21 is opened, and the fluid is discharged through the second discharge port 21.

[0047] If it is necessary to reopen the first outlet 11, since the two arc-shaped notches are symmetrically arranged and both are connected to the rounded corner protrusions, and the arc-shaped structures on both sides are the same, it is only necessary to continue to rotate the knob in the forward or reverse direction. Under the elastic force of the compression spring 51, as the contact position between the arc-shaped notch and the toggle block 41 changes, the upper valve core 5 gradually moves towards the position of the second outlet 21. When the toggle block 41 moves to the lowest position of the arc-shaped notch, the second outlet 21 is closed, and the fluid is discharged through the first outlet 11.

[0048] It should be noted that during the process of closing the first outlet 11, when the second outer sealing ring 53 leaves the small hole end of the second step hole 20, the lower valve core 6 has not yet moved into place. Therefore, at this time, there is a state where both outlets are opened at the same time. If the knob 4 is kept still, under the action of pressure, part of the fluid will gradually flow out at the second outlet 21, thus forming a diversion state. The diversion flow rate can also be controlled according to the rotation angle of the knob 4.

[0049] In addition, at the insertion point of the knob 4, an annular boss is provided on the inner wall of the upper housing 2. The annular boss and the inner wall of the housing form a groove. A sealing ring 8 is also provided in the groove. The knob 4 passes through the sealing ring 8 and protrudes out of the upper housing 2. The end face of the corresponding end of the annular boss and the connecting plate 40 abuts and limits the movement.

[0050] In addition, to ensure the reliability of the seal, the upper shell 2 and the lower shell 1 should be welded on the outside of the sleeve position to better prevent leakage due to loosening of the sleeve.
