[0023] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation manners.

[0024] In the following description, many specific details are set forth in order to fully understand the present invention. However, the present invention can also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited by the limitations of the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0025] As Figures 1-7 shown, a clogging-proof safety valve includes a safety valve 1. A feeding chute is arranged inside the safety valve 1. A discharge pipe 2 is fixedly installed on the side of the feeding chute. A drain-in pipe 3 is arranged inside the safety valve 1 and below the feeding chute. A plugging assembly 4 is arranged inside the safety valve 1 and above the feeding chute. The plugging assembly 4 plugs the top of the drain-in pipe 3. A self-cleaning mechanism 5 is installed on the surface of the discharge pipe 2. The self-cleaning mechanism 5 includes a rectangular block 8. The rectangular block 8 is installed on the surface of the discharge pipe 2. A first fixed pipe 6 is arranged at the top of the rectangular block 8. A second fixed pipe 7 is arranged at the bottom of the rectangular block 8. An input pipe 14 is installed on the surface of the first fixed pipe 6. An output pipe 28 is installed on the surface of the second fixed pipe 7. By installing the self-cleaning mechanism 5 on the surface of the discharge pipe 2, impurities, sediments or pollutants accumulated on the valve core, valve seat or other key components can be removed, so as to keep the normal operation and reliability of the valve, improve the working reliability, service life and system safety of the valve, and at the same time reduce the maintenance cost and downtime.

[0026] The discharge pipe 2 is provided with a cylindrical discharge port corresponding to the feeding trough. The gas or liquid discharged from the safety valve 1 can be discharged to the discharge port through the feeding trough. A rectangular groove 15 is arranged inside the rectangular block 8, and the rectangular groove 15 is fitted and installed in the middle of the cylindrical discharge port. An activity pipe 9 is movably installed inside the first fixed pipe 6. A first blocking plate 10 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the activity pipe 9, and the first blocking plate 10 is movably installed in the rectangular groove 15. When the activity pipe 9 is completely received inside the first fixed pipe 6, the first blocking plate 10 is closely attached to the top end of the rectangular groove 15. After the activity pipe 9 is received inside the first fixed pipe 6, the first blocking plate 10 can block the bottom of the first fixed pipe 6, effectively preventing the leakage of liquid, gas or other media, ensuring the sealing performance of the system, with a relatively compact structure and reducing the external occupied space.

[0027] A discharge trough 12 is opened at the bottom of the end of the activity pipe 9 close to the safety valve 1, and an activity side trough 11 is opened at the top of the end of the activity pipe 9 far from the safety valve 1. A connecting pipe 13 is installed inside the activity pipe 9. The input pipe 14 is located in the middle of the first fixed pipe 6, and the surface of the input pipe 14 movably penetrates through the activity side trough 11 and is connected to the connecting pipe 13. When the activity pipe 9 extends out of the first fixed pipe 6, the bottom of the activity pipe 9 moves into the rectangular groove 15, and the discharge trough 12 will move into the rectangular groove 15. At this time, the staff inputs cleaning liquid into the connecting pipe 13 through the input pipe 14, and the cleaning liquid will then flow into the inside of the cylindrical discharge port and the feeding trough through the discharge trough 12. Under the action of the activity side trough 11, the input pipe 14 is connected to the connecting pipe 13 through the activity side trough 11. The movement of the activity pipe 9 will not affect the input pipe 14 and the connecting pipe 13, and stable transmission can be maintained even when the activity pipe 9 moves, reducing the possibility of leakage or detachment.

[0028] When the activity pipe 9 is completely received inside the first fixed pipe 6, the bottom of the connecting pipe 13 is closely attached to the surface of the first blocking plate 10. After the activity pipe 9 is received inside the first fixed pipe 6, the sealing performance and stability of the connecting pipe 13 are ensured, and the occurrence of water leakage is avoided.

[0029] A cylinder 29 is arranged above the first fixed pipe 6, and the output end of the cylinder 29 is connected to the top of the activity pipe 9. The cylinder 29 is connected to the top of the activity pipe 9 as a driving device to achieve high-precision motion control.

[0030] Inside the second fixed pipe 7, there is a cylindrical groove 17. The cylindrical groove 17 is connected to the output pipe 28, and the output pipe 28 is located at the top of the cylindrical groove 17. Inside the cylindrical groove 17, a first spring 19 is installed. The top end of the first spring 19 is connected to a second sealing surface 20. The second sealing surface 20 is movably installed inside the cylindrical groove 17. At the top of the second sealing surface 20, a convex block 21 is fixedly installed. At the bottom end of the rectangular groove 15, a square groove 18 is opened. The square groove 18 is directly above the cylindrical groove 17, and the linear distance of the diagonal of the square groove 18 is the same as the diameter of the cylindrical groove 17. The convex block 21 is movably installed inside the square groove 18. On the inner wall of the square groove 18, a side groove 23 is opened. Inside the side groove 23, an auxiliary baffle 24 is installed through a rotating shaft. Inside the side groove 23 and below the auxiliary baffle 24, an arc spring 25 is provided. The end of the arc spring 25 is connected to the auxiliary baffle 24. At one end of the convex block 21 close to the auxiliary baffle 24, a supporting groove 22 is opened. The end of the auxiliary baffle 24 is arranged inside the supporting groove 22. The auxiliary baffle 24 is set as a rectangle. The auxiliary baffle 24 and the convex block 21 block the square groove 18. Through the elastic force of the first spring 19, the second sealing surface 20 can be lifted upward. The second sealing surface 20 will move to the topmost end of the cylindrical groove 17, and the convex block 21 will move into the square groove 18. At this time, the supporting groove 22 has a supporting effect on the end of the auxiliary baffle 24. The auxiliary baffle 24 and the convex block 21 can block the notch of the square groove 18. At the same time, the rectangular shape of the auxiliary baffle 24 closely cooperates with the inner wall of the square groove 18, further improving the accuracy and reliability of the blockage.

[0031] At the top of the convex block 21, a filter plate 26 is fixedly installed. The width of the filter plate 26 is the same as the width of the convex block 21. On the surface of the filter plate 26, a plurality of filter holes 30 are opened. The filter plate 26 mainly plays the roles of filtering impurities, improving the purity of the medium, evenly distributing fluids or gases, preventing blockages, and enhancing the structural stability. It not only protects the key components inside the equipment, but also improves the operating efficiency and reliability of the equipment. At the same time, it is convenient for maintenance and cleaning.

[0032] At the top of the filter plate 26, a long plate 27 is fixedly installed. The width of the long plate 27 is the same as the width of the rectangular groove 15. At the bottom of the first sealing plate 10, a resisting block 16 is fixedly installed. The resisting block 16 is directly above the long plate 27, and the width of the resisting block 16 is the same as the width of the long plate 27. When the movable pipe 9 moves downward, the resisting block 16 exerts a downward pressure on the long plate 27. The filter plate 26 is pressed into the cylindrical groove 17. The bottom of the long plate 27 closely adheres to the bottom of the rectangular groove 15. At this time, the middle part of the rectangular groove 15 is divided by the long plate 27, the resisting block 16 and the movable pipe 9, and the middle end of the cylindrical discharge port is blocked, facilitating the cleaning of the inside of the cylindrical discharge port and the feeding groove.

[0033] Working principle: First, in the normal working state, the sealing component 4 of the safety valve 1 is tightly combined with the sealing surface of the discharge pipe 3 to maintain the system pressure within the specified range. At this time, the pressing force of the spring or the pressure of the weight through the lever is balanced with the medium pressure, and the sealing component 4 remains in the closed state. When the medium pressure in the system exceeds the set value, the spring is compressed or the weight is lifted, and the sealing component 4 loses balance and leaves the discharge pipe 3. As the medium is discharged, the pressure in the system gradually decreases. When the pressure drops below the specified value, the pressing force of the spring or the pressure of the weight through the lever is greater than the medium pressure again, the sealing component 4 resets, and the sealing surface is re-sealed, and the system returns to the normal sealing state. After work, there will be a lot of dirt remaining in the cylindrical discharge port and the feeding trough. Subsequently, the cylinder 29 drives the movable pipe 9 to move downward. The input pipe 14 is connected to the connecting pipe 13 through the movable side groove 11. The movement of the movable pipe 9 will not affect the input pipe 14 and the connecting pipe 13, and the bottom of the movable pipe 9 will move into the rectangular groove 15. The discharge trough 12 will move into the rectangular groove 15. At the same time, the abutting block 16 has a downward pressure on the long plate 27, and the filter plate 26 is pressed into the interior of the cylindrical groove 17. The bottom of the long plate 27 is closely attached to the bottom of the rectangular groove 15. At this time, the middle part of the rectangular groove 15 is divided by the long plate 27, the abutting block 16 and the movable pipe 9, and the second sealing surface 20 will move below the output pipe 28, and the middle end of the cylindrical discharge port is blocked. Then, cleaning liquid is injected into the connecting pipe 13 through the input pipe 14. The cleaning liquid will flow into the cylindrical discharge port and the feeding trough through the discharge trough 12. Then, the cleaning liquid has a downward pressure on the auxiliary baffle 24, and finally the cleaning liquid will be discharged from the output pipe 28, which can remove impurities, sediments or pollutants accumulated on the valve core, valve seat or other key components, so as to maintain the normal operation and reliability of the valve.

[0034] The above shows and describes the basic principle, main features and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art of this industry should understand that the present invention is not limited by the above embodiments. What is described in the above embodiments and the specification is only the principle of the present invention. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, the present invention will have various changes and improvements, and these changes and improvements all fall within the scope of the present invention claimed.
