[0025] A vertically penetrating channel 12 is provided at the center of the main regulating valve 10, a second channel 13 is provided at the center of the balancing body 9, a side hole 6 is provided on the side wall of the protruding rod 5 above the balancing membrane 8, and the upper end of the second channel 13 is connected to the side hole 6, and the lower end is connected to the first channel 12.

[0026] In this embodiment, the balancing body 9 and the protruding rod 5 are arranged in a vertical direction, and an O-ring is embedded in the step surface formed by the protruding rod 5 and the balancing body 9 to maintain the sealing between the bottom surface of the balancing membrane 8 and the step surface. An O-ring is embedded in the bottom surface of the balancing body 9 to maintain the sealing between the bottom surface of the balancing body 9 and the main regulating valve 10.

[0027] In this embodiment, the side wall of the pipe 25 is fixed to and connected to the main regulator 33, and a membrane 34 is fixed inside the main regulator 33, and a connecting rod 36 is fixed at the center of the membrane 34. The upper end of the connecting rod 36 is connected to the top of the main regulator 33 through a spring 35, and the lower end of the connecting rod 36 is hinged to one end of a lever 37, and the other end of the lever 37 is hinged to the upper end of the connecting rod 1 4, and the middle part of the lever 37 is set at the inner bottom of the main regulator 33.

[0028] Working principle and advantages of the present invention: When the gas pressure reducing valve balancing module is in use, the working process is as follows: at the beginning, the main regulating valve 10 is in an open state, that is, the valve port 14 is not blocked, and the gas enters the interior of the pipeline 25 through the inlet side ball valve 26 at the left end of the pipeline 25, and comes to the outlet side of the pipeline 25 through the valve port 14, and then enters the lower cavity of the membrane 34 inside the main regulator 33 through the internal signal tube 2 32, giving the membrane 34 an upward force, so that the membrane 34 drives the right end of the lever 37 to move upward through the connecting rod 2 36, so that the left end of the lever 37 applies downward pressure to the connecting rod 1 4, and then the connecting rod 1 4 drives the balancing body 9 and the main regulating valve 10 to block the upper end of the valve port 14 through the convex rod 5. Close the valve port 14. At this time, the pressure on the outlet side is the closing pressure (static pressure). When the user starts to use gas, the outlet side ball valve 28 at the right end of the pipeline 25 is opened, so that the pressure on the outlet side drops, and the pressure in the lower cavity of the diaphragm 34 inside the main regulator 33 drops accordingly. Under the action of the spring 35 and the atmospheric pressure, the diaphragm 34 moves downward, so that the diaphragm 34 drives the right end of the lever 37 to move downward through the connecting rod 2 36, so that the left end of the lever 37 applies an upward pulling force to the connecting rod 1 4, and then the connecting rod 1 4 drives the balance body 9 and the main regulating valve 10 to move upward and away from the valve port 14 through the convex rod 5, so that the valve port 14 opens to supply gas to the downstream. As the gas consumption increases, the opening of the valve port 14 increases to meet the excess gas volume and gas pressure. On the contrary, when the gas consumption of the user decreases, the pressure on the outlet side increases, and the membrane 34 drives the right end of the lever 37 to move upward through the connecting rod 2 36, so that the left end of the lever 37 applies downward pressure to the connecting rod 1 4, and then the connecting rod 1 4 drives the balance body 9 and the main regulating valve 10 to move downward through the convex rod 5, so that the main regulating valve 10 gradually closes the valve port 14. When the flow rate is zero, the main regulating valve 10 closes the valve port 14.

[0029] When the main regulating valve 10 closes the upper end of the valve port 14, the airflow on the inlet side of the pipeline 25 enters the cavity on the upper side of the balancing membrane 8 through the valve port 14, channel 1 12, channel 2 13 and side hole 6, thereby increasing the cavity pressure on the upper side of the balancing membrane 8, so that the upper surface of the balancing membrane 8 is subjected to downward pressure, which is equal to the upward pressure exerted by the airflow in the valve port 14 on the bottom surface of the main regulating valve 10, thereby balancing the force of the inlet pressure on the main regulating valve 10, so that the main regulator 33 can adapt to a wider range of inlet pressure changes and the pressure regulation is more stable. In addition, through modular design, the general (applicability) is enhanced, and it can be used for the transformation of products without balancing devices. The entire balancing module has a simple structure and is easy to install and maintain, which greatly improves the operating performance of the gas pressure reducing valve and has the advantages of good effect and low cost.

[0030] A shut-off valve 29 cooperating with the main regulator is also provided on the pipeline 25. The pressure on the outlet side of the pipeline 25 acts on the shut-off diaphragm inside the shut-off valve 29 (the diaphragm is connected to the lock) through the signal tube 31 and is acted upon by the shut-off spring. When the pressure on the outlet side of the pipeline 25 rises to the shut-off set value due to a fault, the shut-off diaphragm drives the ball lock sleeve to move, allowing the ball lock device to release the valve stem, so that the shut-off live valve 30 at the upper end of the valve stem moves under the action of the spring to close the lower end of the valve port 14 and cut off the airflow. After the fault is eliminated, the shut-off protective cover is screwed upside down on the valve stem and pulled outward to move the shut-off live valve 30 away from the valve port 14, thereby manually resetting it.

[0031] Example 2

[0032] See also Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 This embodiment is realized on the basis of the embodiment 1. A pump barrel 18 is fixed to the inner bottom surface of the balancer housing 1, and the pump barrel 18 is located below the balance membrane 8. A piston plate 17 is slidably connected in the pump barrel 18. A push-pull rod 16 is fixed on the piston plate 17. The push-pull rod 16 penetrates and is slidably connected to the upper end wall of the pump barrel 18. The upper end of the push-pull rod 16 is fixedly connected to the balance membrane 8 through a connecting piece 15. The pump barrel 18 is filled with an inert gas. An air passage 2 is provided inside the balance body 9. 0, an air passage 21 is provided in the main regulating valve 10, the upper end of the air passage 1 20 is connected with the bottom of the pump barrel 18 through the conduit 19, the lower end of the air passage 1 20 is connected with the upper end of the air passage 2 21, a groove matching the valve port 14 is provided on the bottom surface of the ring seal 11, and an annular groove 23 is provided on the inner side wall of the groove, a rubber sealing ring 24 is fixed at the opening of the annular groove 23 facing the inside of the groove, an air passage 3 22 is provided in the ring seal 11, and the air passage 3 22 is connected with the air passage 2 21 and the annular groove 23 respectively.

[0033] The working principle and advantages of this embodiment are as follows: As shown in Embodiment 1, in the process of the main regulating valve 10 moving downward to close the valve port 14, the groove on the bottom surface of the ring seal 11 is correspondingly sleeved on the upper end of the valve port 14, and the balancing membrane 8 is subjected to downward pressure and drives the piston plate 17 to move downward through the connecting piece 15 and the push-pull rod 16, so that the piston plate 17 sequentially transports the inert gas in the pump barrel 18 to the ring groove 23 through the conduit 19, the air channel 1 20, the air channel 2 21 and the air channel 3 22, so that the air pressure in the ring groove 23 increases and the rubber seal ring 24 expands to increase the tightness between the rubber seal ring 24 and the side wall of the valve port 14, thereby increasing the pressure on the valve. The sealing performance of the valve port 14 after closing is improved. When the valve port 14 is opened, the connecting rod 14 drives the balancing body 9 and the main regulating valve 10 to move upward through the convex rod 5, so that the balancing body 9 drives the balancing membrane 8 to move upward, and the balancing membrane 8 drives the piston plate 17 to move upward through the connecting piece 15 and the push-pull rod 16, so that the pump barrel 18 sucks the inert gas in the annular groove 23 into the pump barrel 18 through the conduit 19, the airway 1 20, the airway 21 and the airway 3 22 in sequence, so that the air pressure in the annular groove 23 is reduced, thereby reducing the fitting force between the rubber sealing ring 24 and the side wall of the valve port 14, so that the main regulating valve 10 can be smoothly separated from the valve port 14.
