Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of dispensers, in particular to a dispenser unit and an assembly method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The lubricating oil distributor is installed on a machine and connected to the output of a lubricator to distribute a specific volume of lubricating oil output by the lubricator to several pipelines, which are then transported to various parts of the machine that need lubrication. In this way, not only can the machine be fully lubricated to ensure smooth operation, but also it can avoid the need for overly complex connecting pipelines between the machine and the lubricator.

[0003] The existing dispenser includes a main body and a plurality of dispensing units mounted on the main body, such as Figure 7 As shown, the existing distribution unit includes a valve body 91, an oil inlet pressure body 92, an oil inlet valve 93 and an oil outlet one-way valve 94. An oil inlet chamber 911 and an oil outlet chamber 912 are provided in the valve body 91. The oil inlet pressure body 92 and the oil inlet valve 93 are installed in the oil inlet chamber 911, while the oil outlet one-way valve 94 is installed in the oil outlet chamber 912. The oil inlet chamber 911 and the oil outlet chamber 912 are separated by a step structure 913. The oil inlet valve 93 and the oil outlet one-way valve 94 are pressed against the through hole of the step structure. The displacement of the distribution unit is mainly affected by the diameter D and the movement stroke L of the oil inlet valve. The displacement is calculated as: π*(D / 2)*L. The diameter D is only affected by its processing accuracy, while L is affected by the sealing surface where its end face contacts the step structure. The sealing surface will affect the valve knocking line, such as Figure 6 As shown, the knock valve line refers to a circle of structural lines (represented by dotted lines, which do not actually exist) that contact the contour edge of the through hole when the end of the oil inlet valve 93 is inserted into the through hole. Different positioning methods will result in different knock valve lines, and the accuracy of the knock valve line has a great influence on the displacement. According to the reference value calculated as 0.01ml / cy±10%, the displacement error is 2% for every 0.01mm error. Generally, the error of the valve line depth varies between 0.1-0.3mm, and the error varies by 20%-60%. If the machining error of the depth of the oil inlet chamber, the machining error of the oil inlet valve, and the assembly error of the oil inlet pressure body are added, the displacement of the entire distributor will be out of control. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a distribution unit that helps to ensure the displacement accuracy, and an assembly process method that helps to make the displacement error of the distribution unit meet the standard. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The object of the present invention is to provide a dispensing unit that helps to ensure displacement accuracy.

[0005] Another object of the present invention is to provide an assembly process method that helps to make the displacement tolerance of the dispensing unit meet the standard.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the distribution unit provided by the present invention includes a valve body, an oil inlet valve, an oil outlet one-way valve, an oil inlet pressure body and a first elastic member. The valve body is provided with an oil inlet chamber, an oil outlet chamber and a stepped structure separating the oil inlet chamber and the oil outlet chamber. A docking flow channel runs through the stepped structure. The oil inlet chamber and the oil outlet chamber are connected through the docking flow channel. The oil inlet chamber is away from one end of the stepped structure to form a first stepped hole. The oil inlet pressure body is installed in the first stepped hole. The oil inlet valve is axially movable in the oil inlet chamber. The oil inlet valve is arranged between the oil inlet pressure body and the stepped structure. The first elastic member is installed in the oil inlet chamber. One end of the oil inlet valve forms a plug-in end which can be inserted into the docking flow channel, while the other end forms a docking end face. An oil flow channel is provided in the oil inlet pressure body. The oil flow channel is connected to the oil inlet chamber, and the oil inlet pressure body drives itself to adjust its position axially in the first stepped hole through the axial movement of a press-fit tool inserted into the oil flow channel, and the press-fit tool pushes the mating end face to insert the plug end into the mating flow channel, thereby synchronously finalizing the position of the valve line of the oil inlet valve, and thereby determining the stroke spacing between the oil inlet valve and the oil inlet pressure body, and forming an oil gap between the oil inlet valve and the inner wall of the oil inlet chamber. The first elastic member always has a tendency to drive the oil inlet valve away from the stepped structure, so that the plug end leaves the mating flow channel and the mating end face is close to the oil inlet pressure body. The oil outlet one-way valve is arranged in the oil outlet chamber, and the oil outlet one-way valve always has a tendency to close the mating flow channel to cut off the communication between the oil inlet chamber and the oil outlet chamber.

[0007] Preferably, the oil inlet pressure body is a stepped shaft structure, and one end of the oil inlet pressure body is inserted into the oil inlet cavity.

[0008] Preferably, the oil inlet pressure body includes an inserting end and a mounting end arranged in a stepped shape, the inserting end is inserted into the oil inlet cavity, and the mounting end is mounted in the first stepped hole.

[0009] Preferably, the butt joint end face is a planar structure, and the plug end is a conical structure or a spherical structure.

[0010] Preferably, the oil inlet valve includes a cylindrical structure and a plug-in structure. The diameter of the plug-in structure is smaller than the diameter of the cylindrical structure. The cylindrical structure is installed in the oil inlet chamber with a clearance fit. The end face of the cylindrical structure facing the oil inlet pressure body forms a planar docking end face, and the end of the plug-in structure forms a conically arranged plug-in end or is installed with a spherical structure.

[0011] Preferably, the docking flow channel is a circular through hole coaxially arranged with the valve body.

[0012] Preferably, the first elastic member is sleeved on the plug-in structure and arranged between the stepped structure and the cylindrical structure.

[0013] Preferably, the oil flow passage forms a second stepped hole, and the press-fitting tool is inserted into the second stepped hole and moves axially to drive the oil inlet pressure body to adjust its position axially in the first stepped hole.

[0014] Preferably, the oil flow passage forms a second stepped hole, and the press-fitting tool is inserted into the second stepped hole and moves axially to drive the oil inlet pressure body to adjust its position axially in the first stepped hole.

[0015] To achieve the second objective, the present invention further provides a method for assembling a distribution unit, wherein a press-fit tool is used to position the distribution unit, and the method comprises the following steps:

[0016] S1: Install the oil inlet valve and the first elastic member in the oil inlet chamber, the first elastic member is arranged between the stepped structure and the oil inlet valve, and the oil inlet pressure body is installed in the first stepped hole;

[0017] S2: Install the press-fit tooling into the second stepped hole, and operate the press-fit tooling axially to move close to the stepped structure, so that the press-fit tooling presses the docking end face of the oil inlet valve, drives the oil inlet valve to move close to the stepped structure, compresses the first elastic member until the plug end of the oil inlet valve is inserted into the docking flow channel, and stops the press-fit tooling to complete the valve line. During this process, the press-fit tooling simultaneously drives the oil inlet pressure body to move axially in the first stepped hole close to the stepped structure. After the press-fit tooling, the oil inlet valve, and the oil inlet pressure body all stop moving, the tooling positioning of the oil inlet pressure body and the oil inlet valve is completed;

[0018] S3: Take out the press-fit tooling.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention installs the oil inlet pressure body in the first stepped hole, uses a press-fit tool to penetrate the oil flow channel and move axially, thereby driving the oil inlet pressure body to adjust its position axially in the first stepped hole, and the press-fit tool passing through the oil flow channel pushes the docking end surface so that the plug end is inserted into the docking flow channel, thereby finalizing the position of the valve line of the oil inlet valve, that is, determining the position where the oil inlet valve stops each time. After determining the position where the oil inlet valve stops each time it moves, the press-fit tool also stops immediately. At this time, the press-fit tool no longer drives the oil inlet pressure body to move, and simultaneously adjusts the position of the oil inlet pressure body. At this time, the stroke spacing L between the oil inlet valve and the oil inlet pressure body is also determined, and the tooling accuracy of the stroke spacing L is precisely controlled, so that a distribution unit that ensures displacement accuracy can be manufactured.

[0027] In order to explain the technical content and structural features of the present invention in detail, the following is a further description in conjunction with the embodiments and the accompanying drawings.

[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, the present invention provides a distribution unit 100 suitable for installation in a mounting block 200. An oil inlet channel 201 and a plurality of mounting channels 202 are provided in the mounting block. The mounting channels 202 are connected to the oil inlet channel 201. The distribution unit 100 is installed in the mounting channel 202. After oil is input into the oil inlet channel 201, the oil is output through the distribution unit 100 and distributed to a plurality of pipelines.

[0029] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the distribution unit 100 of the present invention includes a valve body 10, an oil inlet valve 20, an oil outlet one-way valve 30, an oil inlet pressure body 40, and a first elastic member 50. The valve body 10 is provided with an oil inlet chamber 11, an oil outlet chamber 12, and a stepped structure 13 separating the oil inlet chamber 11 from the oil outlet chamber 12. A docking flow channel 14 runs through the stepped structure 13, connecting the oil inlet chamber 11 and the oil outlet chamber 12 via the docking flow channel 14. A first stepped hole 15 is formed at one end of the oil inlet chamber 11 away from the stepped structure 13. The oil inlet valve 20 is axially movable in the oil inlet chamber 11. The oil inlet valve 20 is disposed between the oil inlet pressure body 40 and the stepped structure 13. The first elastic member 50 is mounted in the oil inlet chamber 11. One end of the oil inlet valve 20 forms a plug-in end 21 that can be inserted into the docking flow channel 14, while the other end forms a docking end face 22. An oil flow passage 41 is defined within the oil inlet pressure body 40, communicating with the oil inlet chamber 11. The oil inlet pressure body 40 is adjusted within the first stepped hole 15 by axial movement of a press-fit fixture 01 inserted into the oil flow passage 41. The press-fit fixture 01 pushes against the mating end face 22, inserting the plug end 21 into the mating flow passage 14 and simultaneously calibrating the position of the valve line of the oil inlet valve 20. This, in turn, determines the stroke distance L between the oil inlet valve 20 and the oil inlet pressure body 40. An oil flow gap (not shown) is formed between the oil inlet valve 20 and the inner wall of the oil inlet chamber 11. The first elastic member 50 constantly tends to urge the oil inlet valve 20 away from the stepped structure 13, thereby moving the plug end 21 away from the mating flow passage 14 and placing the mating end face 22 in close contact with the oil inlet pressure body 40. The oil outlet one-way valve 30 is provided in the oil outlet chamber 12 , and the oil outlet one-way valve 30 always has a tendency to close the docking flow channel 14 to cut off the communication between the oil inlet chamber 11 and the oil outlet chamber 12 .

[0030] When oil is injected, it pushes against the oil inlet valve 20, causing the plug end 21 to be inserted into the docking channel 14. This pushes against the oil remaining in the docking channel 14, causing the oil pressure in the docking channel 14 to rise, pushing open the oil outlet check valve 30 and allowing the oil to flow into the oil outlet chamber 12, thus pumping oil. When oil injection is stopped, the oil inlet valve 20 is pushed away from the docking channel 14 by the first elastic member 50. The oil in the oil inlet chamber 11 flows into the docking channel 14 through the oil gap. The oil outlet check valve 30 resets and closes the docking channel 14, severing the connection between the oil inlet chamber 11 and the oil outlet chamber 12, and the oil remains in the docking channel 14. This reciprocating cycle allows the oil pumping action to be repeated.

[0031] Compared with the prior art, the present invention installs the oil inlet pressure body 40 in the first stepped hole 15, uses the press-fitting tool 01 to penetrate the oil flow channel 41 and move axially, thereby driving the oil inlet pressure body 40 to adjust its position axially in the first stepped hole 15, and the press-fitting tool 01 passing through the oil flow channel 41 pushes the docking end face 22 so that the plug end 21 is inserted into the docking flow channel 14, thereby finalizing the position of the valve line of the oil inlet valve 20, that is, determining the position where the oil inlet valve 20 stops each time. After determining the position where the oil inlet valve 20 stops each time it moves, the press-fitting tool 01 also stops immediately. At this time, the press-fitting tool 01 no longer drives the oil inlet pressure body 40 to move, and simultaneously adjusts the position of the oil inlet pressure body 40. At this time, the stroke spacing L between the oil inlet valve 20 and the oil inlet pressure body 40 is also determined, and the tooling accuracy of the stroke spacing L is precisely controlled.

[0032] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the oil inlet pressure body 40 has a stepped shaft structure. One end of the oil inlet pressure body 40 is inserted into the oil inlet cavity 11. This design allows the oil inlet pressure body 40 to move axially for position adjustment. Specifically, the oil inlet pressure body 40 includes a stepped insertion end 42 and a mounting end 43. The insertion end 42 is inserted into the oil inlet cavity 11, and the mounting end 43 is mounted in the first stepped hole 15.

[0033] The butt end face 22 is a flat structure, and the plug end 21 is a tapered structure. Figure 2 and Figure 3 Of course, according to actual needs, in the second embodiment provided by the present invention, the plug end 21 can also be applied as a spherical structure, such as Figure 4 shown.

[0034] The oil inlet valve 20 includes a cylindrical structure 23 and a plug-in structure 24. The diameter of the plug-in structure 24 is smaller than that of the cylindrical structure 23. The cylindrical structure 23 is installed in the oil inlet cavity 11 with a clearance fit. The cylindrical structure 23 forms a planarly arranged butt joint end face 22 facing the end face of the oil inlet pressure body 40. In the first embodiment provided by the present invention, the end of the plug-in structure 24 forms a conical plug-in end 21, so that the plug-in end 21 has a conical structure (such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the second embodiment provided by the present invention, of course, a spherical structure can also be installed at the end of the plug structure 24 so that the plug end 21 is a spherical structure (as shown). Figure 4 shown).

[0035] like Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the docking flow channel 14 is a circular through hole coaxially arranged with the valve body 10 , so that the plug end 21 can be inserted into the docking flow channel 14 .

[0036] like Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 As shown, the first elastic member 50 is mounted on the plug-in structure 24 and disposed between the stepped structure 13 and the cylindrical structure 23 to improve the installation stability of the first elastic member 50 and to more stably drive the movement of the oil inlet valve 20. Preferably, the first elastic member 50 is a spring, but is not limited thereto.

[0037] like Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the oil flow channel 41 forms a second stepped hole. The press-fit fixture 01 is inserted into the second stepped hole and moves axially, thereby driving the oil inlet pressure body 40 to adjust its position axially within the first stepped hole 15. Preferably, the press-fit fixture 01 used in the present invention is T-shaped. If the second stepped hole is divided into two parts, including a first part 411 with a relatively small diameter and a second part 412 with a relatively large diameter, it can be understood that the machining accuracy of the depth dimension L2 of the first part 411 directly represents and reflects the tooling accuracy of the oil inlet pressure body 40. By strictly controlling the machining accuracy of L2, the displacement accuracy of the distribution unit 100 is directly guaranteed.

[0038] like Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the oil outlet one-way valve 30 includes an oil outlet valve 31 and a second elastic member 32. The second elastic member 32 and the oil outlet valve 31 are installed in the oil outlet chamber 12. The second elastic member 32 always has a tendency to drive the oil outlet valve 31 to insert into the docking flow channel 14 to close the docking flow channel 14.

[0039] For example, if the displacement requirement of the distribution unit 100 is 0.01 ml / cy ± 10%, the diameter D of the oil inlet pressure body 40 is Φ5 (+0.03, +0.042), the dimension L is 0.5 mm, and the depth dimension of the second part L2 is 3.75 mm (0, +0.02).

[0040] The influence of L2 size on displacement, the maximum error displacement is: π*(5.03 / 2) 2 *0.02 / 1000=0.0004ml, at this time the error ratio is 0.0004 / 0.01=0.04, 0.01 is the displacement requirement of the distributor. The influence of D size on displacement, the maximum error displacement is: (π*((5.042 / 2) 2 -(5.03 / 2) 2)*0.5 / 1000) / 0.01=0.0048, where 0.01 is the required displacement of the distributor and 0.5 is the dimension of L. The total error impact of L2 and D on the displacement is only 0.04+0.0048=4.48%. This effectively controls the displacement error within 5%, greatly reducing the impact of machining and assembly errors on the displacement, and effectively ensuring the displacement accuracy of the distribution unit 100.

[0041] The following describes the assembly process method of the distribution unit 100 of the present invention. Using this assembly process method, several parts of the distribution unit 100 can be accurately positioned so that the displacement error of the distribution unit 100 is within the standard range. The following describes the assembly process method. Figure 3 As shown, a press-fitting tool 01 is used to position the dispensing unit 100, which includes the following steps:

[0042] S1: Install the oil inlet valve 20 and the first elastic member 50 in the oil inlet chamber 11, the first elastic member 50 is arranged between the stepped structure 13 and the oil inlet valve 20, and install the oil inlet pressure body 40 in the first stepped hole 15;

[0043] S2: Install the press-fitting tool 01 into the second stepped hole, and operate the press-fitting tool 01 axially to move close to the stepped structure 13, so that the press-fitting tool 01 presses the docking end face 22 of the oil inlet valve 20, drives the oil inlet valve 20 to move close to the stepped structure 13, compresses the first elastic member 50 until the plug end 21 of the oil inlet valve 20 is inserted into the docking flow channel 14, and the press-fitting tool 01 stops moving to complete the valve line. During this process, the press-fitting tool 01 synchronously drives the oil inlet pressure body 40 to move axially in the first stepped hole 15 close to the stepped structure 13. After the press-fitting tool 01, the oil inlet valve 20 and the oil inlet pressure body 40 all stop moving, the tool positioning of the oil inlet pressure body 40 and the oil inlet valve 20 is completed;

[0044] S3: Take out the press-fit tool 01.
