AI Technical Summary
The orthogonal rack of the existing axial flow control valve requires positioning tools and rulers to find the meshing position during assembly, which makes the installation process inconvenient and inefficient.
The design employs axial and radial racks, utilizing positioning holes and specific planes and stepped structures on the positioning housing to achieve self-positioning meshing of the racks, thus avoiding dependence on positioning fixtures and rulers.
This allows for easy installation of the rack and pinion, reduces the error rate, and improves assembly efficiency.

[0021] The application will be further described below in connection with the drawings and specific embodiments.
[0022] Figure 1 The working principle of the axial flow regulating valve is shown. The orthogonal rack meshing structure in the embodiment is applied to the axial flow regulating valve,
[0023] Referring to Figure 1 An orthogonal rack meshing structure comprises an axial rack 2, a radial rack 1, and a positioning shell. The positioning shell has mutually perpendicular positioning holes for the axial rack 2 and the radial rack 1 to be inserted into.
[0024] In combination with Figure 2 The front end of the radial rack 1 has a flat surface two 102 flush with the tooth bottom. The tooth root of the front end of the radial rack 1 has a flat surface one 101 perpendicular to the flat surface two 102.
[0025] In combination with Figure 3 The front of the front end tooth of the axial rack 2 has a flat surface three 201 flush with the tooth top. The front part of the flat surface three 201 has a positioning step 202.
[0026] It can be understood that the axial rack 2 is first inserted into the corresponding positioning hole, and then the radial rack 1 is inserted into the corresponding positioning hole. When the teeth of the two racks just mesh, the edge of the radial rack has a set gap from the positioning step 202, as shown in Figure 5 .
[0027] In this embodiment, the set gap is preferably 2 mm.
[0028] In this embodiment, the positioning shell is a valve body of the axial flow regulating valve.
[0029] Referring to Figure 1 An axial sleeve 3 for limiting the axial rack is further installed in the valve body.
[0030] Referring to Figure 1 A valve core 4 is arranged in the valve body. The valve core 4 is fixedly connected to the front end of the axial rack 2.
[0031] Continuing to refer to Figure 1 The valve core 4 can relatively slide with a cage 5. The valve core 4 shields the hole of the cage 5 to adjust the valve opening degree.
[0032] When installing, the axial rack 2 is inserted into the axial sleeve 3, and the radial rack 1 is inserted, so that the plane two 102 cooperates with the plane three 201. In this way, the axial rack 2 only moves left and right, and the radial rack 1 only moves up and down, and does not rotate. The axial rack 2 is pulled outwards, so that the positioning step 202 contacts the radial rack 1, the radial rack 1 is pressed downwards, so that the plane one 101 contacts the axial rack 2, and the radial rack 1 is pressed. Slowly push the axial rack 2 inwards, when the axial rack reaches the meshing position, due to the radial rack 1 being pressed all the time, the two racks will collide under the action of force, a "pop" sound is heard, and the teeth of the two racks begin to mesh. Continue to push the axial rack inwards, the radial rack will follow downwards, thereby completing effective meshing.
[0033] The present application does not need positioning tool positioning when installing the radial rack, and does not need a ruler to measure the size for positioning; the rack is convenient to mesh and install, and the error rate is low.
[0034] The above is the preferred embodiment of the present application, and various transformations and improvements can be made by those skilled in the art on the basis of the present application, and these transformations or improvements are within the scope of the present application without departing from the general concept of the present application.
