This allows the thermocouple to receive a continuous and stable amount of heat, enabling the solenoid valve, which is opened by the push mechanism, to close stably. This ensures that the channel opening remains stably open, guaranteeing a stable gas supply to the subsequent main flame channel, thereby ensuring a stable flame source. Attached Figure Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0039] In order to better understand and implement, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application.

[0040] In the description of the present application, it should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer" and the like indicate the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and are only for the purpose of facilitating the description of the present application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the devices or elements referred to must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the present application.

[0041] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which the present application belongs. The terms used in the specification of the present application herein are only for the purpose of describing the specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present application.

[0042] The present application will be further described in detail below in combination with the drawings.

[0043] Please refer to Figures 1 to 9The switch ball valve 100 provided by the embodiment of the present application comprises a valve body 10, an electromagnetic valve 20, a pushing mechanism 30 and at least two first sealing rings 40.

[0044] Wherein, referring to Figures 1 to 5 The valve body 10 is provided with an air inlet channel 11, a long-lasting fire channel 12, a main fire channel 13 and a main channel 14. The air inlet channel 11, the long-lasting fire channel 12 and the main fire channel 13 are respectively connected with the main channel 14, and the long-lasting fire channel 12 and the main fire channel 13 are arranged at different sides of the valve body 10. The electromagnetic valve 20 is connected with a thermocouple and arranged at one end of the main channel 14, and is used to open or close a channel opening 111 connected between the air inlet channel 11 and the main channel 14. The pushing mechanism 30 is movably arranged at the other end of the main channel 14, and is used to apply a pushing force to the electromagnetic valve 20 under the action of an external force to open the channel opening 111 or rotate under the action of an external force to adjust the gas outlet amount of the main fire channel 13. The at least two first sealing rings 40 are arranged outside the pushing mechanism 30 and abut against the side wall of the main channel 14. When the pushing mechanism 30 pushes the electromagnetic valve 20 to open the channel opening 111, the long-lasting fire channel 12 is in a gas outlet state, and the main fire channel 13 is in a closed state.

[0045] The switch ball valve 100 is filled with gas through the air inlet channel 11, and the long-lasting fire channel 12 and the main fire channel 13 are respectively used for gas outlet. Under the pushing of the pushing mechanism 30, the electromagnetic valve 20 opens the channel opening 111 of the air inlet channel 11. At this time, gas can enter the main channel 14 through the air inlet channel 11. At this time, the long-lasting fire channel 12 is in a gas outlet state, and the main fire channel 13 is in a closed state. Therefore, gas can flow out through the long-lasting fire channel 12 to sustain combustion on the stove, and provide heat to the thermocouple. Therefore, the thermocouple can continuously and stably obtain heat, so that the electromagnetic valve 20 pushed open by the pushing mechanism 30 can be stably closed to ensure that the channel opening 111 can be in a stable open state, and the stable gas supply state of the main fire channel 13 is ensured, that is, the stable fire source is ensured.

[0046] It should be noted that, since the pushing mechanism 30 needs to rotate relative to the inner wall of the valve body 10, and sealing is required between the two, the first sealing ring 40 needs to be arranged between the pushing mechanism 30 and the valve body 10. Further, by arranging at least two sealing rings, the switch ball valve 100 of the embodiment can be applied to a larger pressure use environment, for example, a pressure condition of 100kpa-200kpa of medium gas pressure, and the risk of gas leakage can be avoided.

[0047] Specifically, two first sealing rings 40 are arranged in the embodiment, so that the frictional resistance of the pushing mechanism 30 relative to the valve body 10 can be ensured to be not too large while ensuring sealing.

[0048] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 In an embodiment of the present application, the pushing mechanism 30 comprises a rotating shaft 31, a valve core 32, a pushing rod 33 and an elastic member 34.

Since the ball core 321 and the shaft sleeve 322 are arranged integrally in this embodiment, when the rotating shaft 31 is driven to rotate, the concentricity of the two is higher, and the precision of the rotation driven by the rotating shaft 31 is higher, that is, the ball core 321 can more accurately adjust the air inlet amount of the main fire passage 13 to accurately adjust the fire size of the gas burner.

[0052] Wherein, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 The elastic member 34 needs to be abutted between the shaft 31 and the bottom wall of the first accommodating cavity 3224, and the second sealing ring 35 can be exposed from the bottom wall of the first accommodating cavity 3224, the second sealing ring 35 has a certain flexibility, in order to ensure that the elastic member 34 has elastic effect, the push mechanism 30 further includes a card 36, the card 36 is sleeved on the push rod 33, and one end of the elastic member 34 is abutted.
