After searching, such as patent: CN222255173U, a safety valve with automatic pressure regulation includes a valve body, a sealing gasket is slidably connected inside the valve body, a pressure relief pipe is fixedly connected to the surface of the valve body, a pressure relief hole is provided inside the pressure relief pipe and on the surface of the valve body, the two pressure relief holes are in the same horizontal plane, the sealing gasket is movably fitted with the surface of the pressure relief hole, an air inlet is provided at the bottom of the valve body, the air inlet is connected to the pressure relief hole, a sliding groove is provided inside the valve body, the sealing gasket is slidably connected inside the sliding groove, a sealing gasket is provided, and the sealing gasket is used to seal the junction of the air inlet and the slide groove and the pressure relief hole through the setting of a spring. When the medium pressure is too high, the sealing gasket is impacted to move up, the position of the pressure relief hole is exposed, and the medium is discharged from the pressure relief hole through the pressure relief pipe to complete the pressure relief work without the need for human care and operation; Currently, when excessive pressure occurs, safety valves automatically release pressure by leveraging the medium's pressure to push the valve core upward, compressing the spring and opening the pressure relief hole.

[0019] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

The regulating assembly includes a rack plate 19 meshingly mounted on one side of the control plate 20 , and the rack plate 19 is slidably mounted inside the valve body 1 through the driving assembly.

[0021] Existing: CN215628772U discloses a safety valve that automatically adjusts pressure. This patent discloses the valve body 1, pressure relief pipe 5 and blade 6 proposed in this application document. This technical means will not be described in detail here; The second pressure relief holes 22 and the control board 20 located inside the pressure relief pipe 5 and the control board 20 are initially staggered except for the second pressure relief holes 22 and the control board 20 at the center of the circle. During operation, when the medium pressure changes, the rack plate 19 can be driven to move by the driving component, and the movement of the rack plate 19 drives the control plate 20 to rotate. When the control plate 20 rotates, it drives the first pressure relief hole 21 to gradually overlap with the second pressure relief hole 22, thereby increasing the area of ​​the medium discharge channel and adapting to the system pressure changes.

[0022] like Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the first pressure relief hole 21 and the second pressure relief hole 22 located at the center of the pressure relief pipe 5 and the control panel 20 always coincide with each other.

[0023] In the initial state, the medium inside the valve body 1 can be discharged from the first pressure relief hole 21 and the second pressure relief hole 22 located at the center of the pressure relief pipe 5 and the control plate 20.

[0024] like Figures 2 to 5 As shown, the drive assembly includes a blade 6 arranged inside the valve body 1, the inner wall of the blade 6 is fixedly connected with a rotating shaft 7, the rotating shaft 7 is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the valve body 1, one end of the rotating shaft 7 is fixedly connected with a first bevel gear 8, the top of the first bevel gear 8 is meshed with a second bevel gear 9, the top of the second bevel gear 9 is fixedly mounted with a reciprocating screw 10, the outer wall of the reciprocating screw 10 is threadedly connected with a piston rod 11, the top of the piston rod 11 is fixedly mounted with a piston 12, a pneumatic plate 16 is provided above the piston 12, the piston 12 and the pneumatic plate 16 are both slidably mounted inside the slide groove 13, the slide groove 13 is opened inside the valve body 1, one side of the slide groove 13 is connected to the air inlet pipe 14, the top of the pneumatic plate 16 is fixedly mounted with a connecting plate 18, and the connecting plate 18 is fixedly mounted on the bottom end of the rack plate 19.

When the air pressure inside the slide groove 13 increases, the pneumatic plate 16 is pushed upward, and the movement of the pneumatic plate 16 drives the movement of the limit shaft 17, and the movement of the limit shaft 17 drives the movement of the connecting plate 18, thereby driving the rack plate 19 to move upward, thereby realizing automatic adjustment of the pressure relief port area.

[0026] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a one-way valve 15 is installed on the outer wall of the air intake pipe 14 .

[0027] The one-way valve 15 allows the intake pipe 14 to only allow air to enter.

[0028] As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 , one side of the chute 13 is provided with an exhaust hole 23, which is opened in the inside of the valve body 1.

[0029] When the air enters the inside of the chute 13, the pneumatic plate 16 moves up to open the exhaust hole 23, and the air can be discharged through the exhaust hole 23, preventing the piston 12 from continuously moving to saturate the air.

The rotation of the blade 6 drives the rotation of the rotating shaft 7. The rotation of the rotating shaft 7 drives the rotation of the first bevel gear 8. The rotation of the first bevel gear 8 drives the rotation of the second bevel gear 9. The rotation of the second bevel gear 9 drives the rotation of the reciprocating screw 10. The rotation of the reciprocating screw 10 drives the piston rod 11 to move back and forth. The movement of the piston rod 11 drives the piston 12 to move back and forth inside the slide groove 13. External air is drawn into the slide groove 13 through the air inlet pipe 14. When the air pressure inside the slide groove 13 increases, the pneumatic plate 16 is pushed upward. The movement of the pneumatic plate 16 drives the movement of the limit shaft 17. The movement of the limit shaft 17 drives the movement of the connecting plate 18, thereby driving the rack plate 19 to move upward. The movement of the rack plate 19 drives the control plate 20 to rotate. When the control plate 20 rotates, it drives the first pressure relief hole 21 to gradually overlap with the second pressure relief hole 22, thereby increasing the area of ​​the medium discharge channel. S3: The medium flowing inside the valve body 1 pushes the valve core 2 to move upward to expose the second pressure relief hole 22 , and the medium is discharged from the second pressure relief hole 22 and the first pressure relief hole 21 to release pressure.
