Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of hydraulic control valves, in particular to an axial flow basic valve. Background Art

[0002] At present, the diaphragm hydraulic control valves with various functions on the market are composed of basic valves and main valves, which are composed of valve body (similar to stop valve), valve cover, valve shaft, valve disc assembly, spring, diaphragm, diaphragm pressure plate, valve seat, fasteners, etc. Its working principle is mainly based on the upstream and downstream pressure difference △P as the power, which is controlled by the pilot valve to make the diaphragm hydraulically differentially operated, so that the opening, closing or adjustment state of the main valve disc is completely automatically adjusted by hydraulic force.

[0003] It has the following defects:

[0004] 1. There are many parts and the cost is high;

[0005] 2. Its flow channel is an "S"-shaped channel with low inlet and high outlet, poor flow pattern, large turbulence disturbance, poor opening linear characteristics, and easy to produce unstable factors such as vibration cavitation and pressure fluctuation. Summary of the invention

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an axial flow basic valve in order to overcome the defects of the existing basic valve "S" type in the above-mentioned prior art, such as large turbulence disturbance in the flow channel, large cavitation tendency, poor opening linear characteristics, inaccurate flow control in a small opening state, and large pressure fluctuations.

[0007] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved by the following technical solutions:

[0008] An axial flow basic valve comprises a valve body, a rubber bladder, a punching mesh cover, a tail support seat, a valve seat, a return spring, a flow guide cover, a first valve, a pipe and a second valve;

[0009] The valve body is a straight-through inner cavity, the guide cover is fixed at the inlet of the valve body, the tail support seat is fixed at the outlet of the valve body, the valve seat is fixed on the guide cover and the tail support seat, and is located between the guide cover and the tail support seat, the perforated mesh cover is fixed on the tail support seat, and a control cavity is formed between the inner wall of the valve body and the guide cover, the valve seat and the tail support seat; the rubber bladder is located in the control cavity, covers one side surface of the control cavity, and is supported by the perforated mesh cover; the reset spring is sleeved in the middle position of the rubber bladder;

[0010] One end of the first valve is connected to the inlet end of the valve body, and the other end is connected to the control chamber through a pipe; one end of the second valve is connected to the outlet end of the valve body, and the other end is connected to the control chamber through a pipe.

[0011] Furthermore, the rubber bladder is a molded elastic rubber sleeve, which shrinks when the water pressure in the control chamber increases, expands when the water pressure in the control chamber decreases, and covers the guide cover, the valve seat and the tail support seat.

[0012] Furthermore, the rubber bladder is a cylindrical structure recessed inwardly, a fixing groove matching with a reset spring is provided in the middle of the rubber bladder, and a fixing protrusion for connecting with an end of a valve body is provided at the end of the rubber bladder.

[0013] Furthermore, the perforated mesh cover is a stainless steel conical tube of equal thickness.

[0014] Furthermore, a rubber ring is provided at the connection between the valve seat and the air guide cover, and at the connection between the valve seat and the tail support seat.

[0015] Furthermore, the first valve is a needle valve.

[0016] Furthermore, the second valve is a ball valve.

[0017] Furthermore, the axial flow basic valve also includes a pilot valve, which is located in the connecting pipeline between the second valve and the outlet end of the valve body.

[0018] Furthermore, the inlet end and the outlet end of the valve body are both provided with standard flanges, and each standard flange is respectively provided with a step for fixing the guide cover and the tail support seat.

[0019] Further, when the first valve is opened and the second valve is closed, the water pressure at the inlet end of the axial flow basic valve enters the valve body and the control cavity respectively, the rubber bladder covers the surfaces of the guide cover, the valve seat and the tail support seat, and the axial flow basic valve is in a fully closed state;

[0020] When the first valve is opened and the second valve is opened with an opening not less than 0, the water flow through the first valve and the ball valve reaches a balance, the rubber bladder floats in the control chamber, and the axial flow basic valve is in a floating state;

[0021] When the first valve is closed and the second valve is opened, the water pressure in the control chamber is released through the second valve, the rubber bladder covers the inside of the valve body, and the axial flow basic valve is in a fully open state.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0023] (1) The axial flow basic valve provided by the present invention forms a control chamber with the inner wall of the valve body by arranging a flow guide cover, a valve seat and a tail support seat in the valve body. On the one hand, the water pressure of the control chamber is controlled by a needle valve pipeline connected to the inlet end of the valve body and a ball valve pipeline connected to the outlet end of the valve body. On the other hand, a rubber bladder is arranged in the control chamber and covers one side surface of the control chamber. When the water pressure on both sides of the control chamber is different, the rubber bladder covers the flow guide cover and the tail support seat to close the valve; or covers the inner wall of the valve body to connect the flow guide cover and the tail support seat to open the valve.

[0024] Thereby, an axial flow hydraulic control valve structure is realized, and the control process is convenient and reliable.

[0025] (2) The present invention adopts a brand-new basic valve design concept and selects an axial flow fully symmetrical main valve flow path, which greatly reduces the shortcomings of the existing basic valve "S" type, large flow path turbulence disturbance, large cavitation tendency, poor opening linear characteristics, inaccurate flow control in small opening states, and large pressure fluctuations.

[0026] The basic valve of the present invention adopts an extremely simple and reasonable design structure, with greatly reduced parts and components, and the main valve part does not even use a screw, so the design cost is greatly reduced and the performance advantages are greatly improved.
