TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of valve body, in particular to an electronic expansion valve. BACKGROUND
[0002] In order to realize the switching of multiple flow paths, the existing electronic expansion valve is often provided with multiple valve ports, and the valve core is closed and switched between different valve ports to realize the flow of different flow paths. However, the electronic expansion valve with multiple valve ports in the prior art cannot guarantee that the valve core and the valve port have good sealing performance in the closed state. SUMMARY
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide an electronic expansion valve to solve the problem that gaps are easily generated between the valve core and the valve port, resulting in leakage of the electronic expansion valve.
[0004] The electronic expansion valve provided by the present application comprises a rotor assembly, a lead screw, a valve core assembly and a valve seat assembly. The valve core assembly can move along the axial direction of the lead screw relative to the valve seat assembly. One end of the lead screw is fixedly connected to the rotor assembly, and the other end is connected to the valve core assembly. The rotor assembly can drive the valve core assembly to move through the lead screw. The valve seat assembly is provided with a first valve port and a second valve port. The electronic expansion valve also has a first pre-tightening structure and / or a second pre-tightening structure. When the lead screw drives the valve core assembly to block the first valve port, the second pre-tightening structure can exert a force on the valve core assembly to press the first valve port. When the lead screw drives the valve core assembly to block the second valve port, the first pre-tightening structure can exert a force on the valve core assembly to press the second valve port.
[0005] In one embodiment, the valve core assembly comprises a first valve needle and a second valve needle. The lead screw can drive the first valve needle to move the second valve needle along its own axis towards the rotor assembly to close the first valve port. The lead screw can also drive the first valve needle to move the second valve needle along its own axis away from the rotor assembly to close the second valve port.
[0006] In one embodiment, the first pre-tightening structure is a first elastic member. One end of the first elastic member is connected to the lead screw, and the other end is connected to a stop seat. The first elastic member is a compression elastic member, so that the lead screw and the stop seat can be movably connected through the first elastic member along the axial direction of the lead screw.
[0007] In one embodiment, the first elastic member is a compression spring, and the first elastic member is sleeved on the outside of the lead screw.
[0008] In one embodiment, the electronic expansion valve further comprises a first limiting member and a second limiting member. One of the first limiting member and the second limiting member is fixedly connected to the stop seat, and the other is fixedly connected to the lead screw. One end of the first elastic member is connected to the first limiting member, and the other end is connected to the second limiting member.
[0009] In one of the embodiments, one of the first and second limit members is a bearing member, and the other is a step structure formed on an outer wall of the screw rod or a step structure formed on an inner wall of the stop seat.
[0010] In one of the embodiments, the second pre-tightening structure is a third elastic member, one end of which is connected to the first valve needle and the other end of which is connected to the second valve needle, and the third elastic member is a compression elastic member, so that the first valve needle and the second valve needle can be movably fitted along the axial direction of the screw rod through the third elastic member.
[0011] In one of the embodiments, the third elastic member is a compression spring, and the third elastic member is sleeved on the outer side of part of the first valve needle, the second valve needle is sleeved on the outer side of part of the first valve needle, and the third elastic member is located between the first valve needle and the second valve needle.
[0012] In one of the embodiments, the electronic expansion valve further comprises third and fourth limit members, one of which is fixedly connected to the first valve needle and the other of which is fixedly connected to the second valve needle, one end of the third elastic member is connected to the third limit member, and the other end of the third elastic member is connected to the fourth limit member.
[0013] In one of the embodiments, the electronic expansion valve further comprises a third elastic sealing ring, which is clamped between the outer wall of the second valve needle and the inner wall of the valve seat assembly and is in a compressed state, so that the outer wall of the second valve needle is movably fitted with the valve seat assembly through the third elastic sealing ring.
[0014] In one of the embodiments, the stop seat is sleeved on the outer side of the screw rod, the valve core assembly further comprises a sliding nut, one end of the screw rod away from the rotor assembly is threadedly connected with the sliding nut, and the sliding nut and the stop seat or the valve seat assembly are matched through the limit structure, so that the screw rod can drive the sliding nut to move the valve core assembly along the axial direction of the screw rod to open or close the first valve port and the second valve port, and the limit structure can prevent the sliding nut from rotating around the axis of the screw rod.
[0015] In one of the embodiments, the sliding nut is provided with a rotation-stopping protrusion extending along the radial direction of the sliding nut, the stop seat or the valve seat assembly is provided with a guide groove extending along the axial direction of the valve corresponding to the rotation-stopping protrusion, one end of the rotation-stopping protrusion away from the sliding nut extends into the guide groove and can be slidably fitted with the guide groove along the axial direction of the valve, and the rotation-stopping protrusion and the guide groove constitute the limit structure.
[0016] Compared with existing technologies, this can improve the pre-tightening force of the valve core assembly on the first or second valve port. Even if the valve core assembly is subjected to vibration, it is difficult for a gap to be generated between the valve core assembly and the first valve port under the pre-tightening force of the first pre-tightening structure and / or the second pre-tightening structure. Similarly, it is difficult for a gap to be generated between the valve core assembly and the second valve port. Therefore, the sealing performance of the electronic expansion valve is greatly improved, and leakage of the electronic expansion valve is effectively prevented. Attached Figure Description

The valve core assembly 300 is capable of moving along the axial direction of the screw rod 200 relative to the valve seat assembly 400. One end of the screw rod 200 is fixedly connected to the rotor assembly 100, and the other end is connected to the valve core assembly 300. The rotor assembly 100 is capable of driving the valve core assembly 300 to move through the screw rod 200.

The electronic expansion valve further has a first pre-tightening structure and / or a second pre-tightening structure. When the screw rod 200 drives the valve core assembly 300 to block the first valve port 440, the second pre-tightening structure is capable of exerting a force on the valve core assembly 300 to press the first valve port 440. When the screw rod 200 drives the valve core assembly 300 to block the second valve port 450, the first pre-tightening structure is capable of exerting a force on the valve core assembly 300 to press the second valve port 450.
[0032] In this way, the pre-tightening force of the valve core assembly 300 on the first valve port 440 or the second valve port 450 can be improved, and the sealing performance of the electronic expansion valve can be improved.

Specifically, the electronic expansion valve further comprises a stop seat 510 connected with the valve seat assembly 400, the stop seat 510 is sleeved on the lead screw 200. The valve core assembly 300 further comprises a sliding nut 310, the first valve needle 321 and the second valve needle 322, the end of the lead screw 200 away from the rotor assembly 100 is threadedly connected with the sliding nut 310, and the sliding nut 310 and the stop seat 510 are slidably connected along the axis of the lead screw 200, the rotor assembly 100 is connected to the end of the lead screw 200 away from the sliding nut 310, and the lead screw 200 is capable of driving the sliding nut 310 to move the second valve needle 322 along the axis of the second valve needle 322 towards the rotor assembly 100 through the first valve needle 321, so as to close the first valve port 440, and the lead screw 200 is capable of driving the sliding nut 310 to move the second valve needle 322 along the axis of the second valve needle 322 away from the rotor assembly 100 through the first valve needle 321, so as to close the second valve port 450.
[0034] The sliding nut 310 and the stop seat 510 or the valve seat assembly 400 are matched by the limiting structure, so that the lead screw 200 is capable of driving the sliding nut 310 to move the valve core assembly 300 along the axis of the lead screw 200, so as to open or close the first valve port 440 and the second valve port 450, and the limiting structure is capable of preventing the sliding nut 310 from rotating around the axis of the lead screw 200.
[0035] It should be noted that the working principle of the sliding nut 310 is as follows. Specifically, the sliding nut 310 is provided with a rotation-stopping protrusion 311 extending along the radial direction of the sliding nut 310, the stop seat 510 or the valve seat assembly 400 is provided with a guide groove 515 extending along the axial direction of the stop seat 510 corresponding to the rotation-stopping protrusion 311, the end of the rotation-stopping protrusion 311 away from the sliding nut 310 extends into the guide groove 515 and is slidably matched with the guide groove 515 along the axial direction of the stop seat 510, so that the sliding nut 310 and the stop seat 510 are slidably matched along the axial direction of the stop seat 510. Moreover, the rotation-stopping protrusion 311 and the guide groove 515 constitute the limiting structure.
[0036] Further, in an embodiment, the first pre-tightening structure is a first elastic member 610, one end of the first elastic member 610 is connected with the lead screw 200, and the other end is connected with the stop seat 510, and the connection herein includes abutment. The first elastic member 610 is a compression elastic member, so that the lead screw 200 and the stop seat 510 are movably matched along the axis of the lead screw 200 through the first elastic member 610.
[0037] Further, in an embodiment, the second pre-tightening structure is a third elastic member 630, one end of the third elastic member 630 is connected to the first valve needle 321, and the other end of the third elastic member 630 is connected to the second valve needle 322, where the connection includes abutting. The third elastic member 630 is a compression elastic member, so that the first valve needle 321 and the second valve needle 322 can be movably matched along the axial direction of the screw rod 200 through the third elastic member 630.
[0038] Specifically, the first interface 431 and the second interface 432 are distributed along the axial direction of the valve seat assembly 400, and the first valve port 440 is arranged between the first interface 431 and the second interface 432, and the second valve port 450 is arranged on the side of the second interface 432 away from the first interface 431.
[0039] In this way, it is defined that when the rotor assembly 100 rotates along the preset direction, and the screw rod 200 drives the valve core assembly 300 to move towards the first preset position close to the rotor assembly 100, the valve core assembly 300 can close the first valve port 440, and the second interface 432 communicates the second valve port 450.
[0040] When the valve core assembly 300 moves to the first preset position, and the rotor assembly 100 continues to rotate along the preset direction, the second valve needle 322 cannot continue to move, and since the first valve needle 321 and the second valve needle 322 can be movably matched along the axial direction of the screw rod 200 through the third elastic member 630, at this time, the screw rod 200 and the rotor assembly 100 drive the first valve needle 321 to move away from the second valve needle 322 and towards the direction away from the first valve port 440, and in the process of moving the screw rod 200, the first valve needle 321 is driven to press the third elastic member 630, so that the third elastic member 630 generates an elastic force on the second valve needle 322, which can drive the second valve needle 322 to further press the first valve port 440, so that the second valve needle 322 generates a pre-tightening force on the first valve port 440, and improves the sealing between the first valve port 440 and the second valve needle 322.
[0041] It is defined that when the rotor assembly 100 rotates along the direction opposite to the preset direction, and the screw rod 200 drives the valve core assembly 300 to move to the second preset position away from the rotor assembly 100, the valve core assembly 300 can close the second valve port 450, and the first interface 431 communicates the second interface 432 through the first valve port 440.
[0042] When the valve core assembly 300 moves to the second preset position and the rotor assembly 100 continues to rotate in the direction opposite to the preset direction, the first valve needle 321 and the second valve needle 322 cannot continue to move, and since the screw rod 200 and the valve seat assembly 400 can be movably matched with the screw rod 200 in the axial direction through the first elastic member 610, the screw rod 200 and the rotor assembly 100 move towards the direction away from the second valve port 450, and the first elastic member 610 generates an elastic force on the screw rod 200 during the movement of the screw rod 200, which can drive the screw rod 200 to further press the second valve port 450 to generate a pre-tightening force on the second valve port 450, thereby improving the sealing between the second valve port 450 and the second valve needle 322.
[0043] It should be noted that the electronic expansion valve further comprises a housing 800 and a stator assembly 900, the housing 800 is arranged outside the rotor assembly 100, part of the screw rod 200 and part of the valve core assembly 300 and is welded to the valve seat.

[0044] Further, in an embodiment, the first elastic member 610 is a compression spring, and the first elastic member 610 is arranged outside the screw rod 200.

[0047] In this way, the machining difficulty of the third elastic member 630 is significantly reduced, and the assembly difficulty of the third elastic member 630 is reduced.
[0048] In an embodiment, the electronic expansion valve further comprises a first limiting member 220 and a second limiting member 230, one of the first limiting member 220 and the second limiting member 230 is fixedly connected to the stop seat 510, and the other is fixedly connected to the screw rod 200, one end of the first elastic member 610 is connected to the first limiting member 220, and the other end is connected to the second limiting member 230.

The second limiting member 230 is a first rod body step 240 formed on the outer wall of the screw rod 200 and fixedly connected to the outer wall of the screw rod 200. In addition, one end of the first elastic member 610 abuts against the bearing inner ring of the first limiting member 220, and the other end abuts against the second limiting member 230.
[0052] Since the screw rod 200 can drive the bearing inner ring of the first limiting member 220 to rotate synchronously, and the second limiting member 230 is a first rod body step 240 formed on the outer wall of the screw rod 200 and fixedly connected to the outer wall of the screw rod 200, the two ends of the first elastic member 610 can rotate synchronously with the screw rod 200. In this way, the wear between the first elastic member 610, the screw rod 200 and the valve seat assembly 400 is greatly reduced, and the service life of the electronic expansion valve is improved.

In addition, one end of the first elastic member 610 abuts against the bearing outer ring of the first limiting member 220, and the other end abuts against the second limiting member 230.
[0054] Since the stop seat 510 can limit the bearing outer ring of the first limiting member 220 from rotating circumferentially, and the second limiting member 230 is fixedly connected to the stop seat 510, the two ends of the first elastic member 610 can remain in a non-rotating state with the stop seat 510. In this way, the wear between the first elastic member 610, the screw rod 200 and the stop seat 510 is also greatly reduced, and the service life of the electronic expansion valve is improved.
