Technical Field
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of fluid control technology, and more specifically, relates to a pull-type safety valve and a fluid system. Background Art
[0002] A safety valve is a safety device used to protect equipment or systems. When the medium pressure exceeds the set value, the safety valve opens to release the pressure, ensuring the safe operation of the equipment or system and the safety of personnel.
[0003] In the related art, the safety valve is assembled from a variety of accessories; to facilitate the operation of the safety valve, the valve body of the safety valve is often equipped with a rotatable handle; by turning the knob handle, the inclined platform on the handle lifts the sealing seat in the valve body, thereby realizing active pressure relief of the safety valve.
[0004] However, when using a safety valve with a handle, wear on the handle or ramp increases friction, risking the handle from getting stuck and causing the valve to malfunction. Furthermore, safety valves often require a rotation stop for the sealing seat to prevent it from rotating when lifted by the ramp. This increases friction on the sealing seat, affecting the pressure relief. This makes handle-adjustable safety valves not only prone to malfunction, but also requires numerous accessories and is prone to interference pressure. Summary of the Invention

Since the safety valve of the scheme adopts a pulling type structure, the inclined table and the rotation stopping structure and other accessories in the handle knob type safety valve are omitted. Compared with the handle knob type safety valve, the safety valve is not prone to failure, and the accessories are less likely to interfere with the pressure.

[0018] As a further preferred, the valve body comprises a main body and a valve cover, the main body has a mounting port for mounting the adjusting member and the flexible sealing member; the valve cover is detachably connected with the main body at the mounting port and can confine the adjusting member and the flexible sealing member in the valve cover and the main body.
[0019] As a further preferred, when the main body and the valve cover are connected with each other, a clamping cavity for clamping the first flange portion is formed at the joint of the main body and the valve cover.

[0022] The second aspect of the present application provides a fluid system adopting the following technical scheme:
[0023] A fluid system comprises any one of the pull-type safety valve of the first aspect.
[0024] Overall, compared with the prior art, the above technical scheme conceived by the present application mainly has the following technical advantages:
[0025] 1. When pressure relief is needed, the user can pull the adjusting member in the axial direction, so that the adjusting member is quickly adjusted to the second position, realizing the communication between the main valve port and the pressure relief port, i.e. the pressure relief of the safety valve; this design omits the inclined table and the rotation-stopping structure and other accessories in the handle knob type safety valve on the basis of guaranteeing the original pressure relief function of the safety valve, so that the safety valve of the present design is not only less likely to fail, but also has fewer accessories and is less likely to interfere with the pressure.

The flexible sealing member is composed of a sealing portion, a first flange portion and a flexible connecting portion, which not only can realize the on-off adjustment between the main valve port and the pressure relief port, but also can separate the inner cavity of the valve body, so that other functional components (such as the adjusting member and the elastic member) in the safety valve remain independent of the main valve port and the pressure relief port, to avoid the erosion of the medium in the safety valve to the built-in functional elements of the safety valve, thereby effectively prolonging the service life of the safety valve.
[0027] 3. By disassembling the main body and the valve cover, the installation or replacement of the adjusting member, the elastic member and the flexible sealing member can be realized, so that the assembly operation of the safety valve is convenient, and the internal components of the valve body are easy to replace.

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and not used to limit the present application.
[0038] The present application is further described below with reference to the drawings and embodiments. Figures 1-8 The present application is further described below with reference to the drawings and embodiments.
[0039] An embodiment of the present application discloses a pull-type safety valve. With reference to Figures 1-3The pull type safety valve comprises a valve body 1, an adjusting member 2, a flexible sealing member 3 and an elastic member 4. The valve body 1 is provided with an inner cavity, and the valve body 1 is provided with a main valve port 10 and a pressure relief port 20 which are communicated with the inner cavity. The flexible sealing member 3 is arranged in the inner cavity, and the flexible sealing member 3 is used to cut off the main valve port 10 and the pressure relief port 20 when pressure relief is not needed, and the flexible sealing member 3 is used to open the main valve port 10 to make the main valve port 10 and the pressure relief port 20 communicated when pressure relief is needed. The adjusting member 2 is used to adjust the flexible sealing member 3 along the axial direction of the valve body 1, and the adjusting member 2 is connected with the flexible sealing member 3 and can move between a first position and a second position in the axial direction of the inner cavity. When the adjusting member 2 is located at the first position, the flexible sealing member 3 cuts off the main valve port 10 and the pressure relief port 20. When the adjusting member 2 moves from the first position to the second position, the flexible sealing member 3 removes the cut-off between the main valve port 10 and the pressure relief port 20 to make the main valve port 10 and the pressure relief port 20 communicated. The elastic member 4 elastically abuts against the adjusting member 2 and the valve body 1 to make the adjusting member 2 return to the first position after moving to the second position.
[0040] Further, referring to Figures 2-4 For the convenience of assembling the safety valve, the valve body 1 in the safety valve comprises a main body 1-1 and a valve cover 1-2. The related pressure relief port 20 and the main valve port 10 are arranged on the main body 1-1, and the main body 1-1 is further provided with a mounting port 30 for mounting the adjusting member 2 and the flexible sealing member 3. The valve cover 1-2 is located at the mounting port 30 and is detachably connected with the main body 1-1, and the valve cover 1-2 is further provided with a through hole 40 for the one end of the adjusting member 2 to pass through. After the valve cover 1-2 is assembled on the main body 1-1, the adjusting member 2 and the flexible sealing member 3 are limited in the valve cover 1-2 and the main body 1-1, and are combined together to form a stable safety valve.
[0041] It should be noted that the assembly mode between the main body 1-1 and the valve cover 1-2 includes but is not limited to threaded mounting, screw mounting, buckle mounting and the like. For the convenience of understanding, Figure 2 A threaded mounting mode is shown to realize the detachable mounting of the main body 1-1 and the valve cover 1-2.
[0042] Further, as shown in Figures 2-3 The main body 1-1 is provided with a first protrusion 5 which is formed at the inner wall of the main valve port 10 and protrudes in the circumferential direction. The first protrusion 5 is located between the main valve port 10 and the pressure relief port 20. When the adjusting member 2 is located at the first position, the first protrusion 5 abuts against the adjusting member 2 to realize the cut-off of the main valve port 10 and the pressure relief port 20. When the adjusting member 2 is located at the second position, the first protrusion 5 is separated from the adjusting member 2 to realize the communication between the main valve port 10 and the pressure relief port 20.
[0043] It should be noted that the abutting seal between the first protrusion 5 and the adjusting member 2 can be an end face seal or a circumferential seal.
[0044] Further, as shown in Figure 5 , the flexible seal 3 comprises a sealing part 3-1, a flexible connecting part 3-2 and a first flange part 3-3 connected in sequence, the sealing part 3-1 is used to cut off the main valve port 10 and the pressure relief port 20, the first flange part 3-3 is used to form a connection with the valve body 1, and the flexible connecting part 3-2 can be bent during use.
[0045] When the sealing part 3-1 and the first protrusion 5 adopt a face seal form, a boss is arranged at the center of the end face of the sealing part 3-1 away from the adjusting part 2, and a first groove 50 is arranged on the end face of the sealing part 3-1. The first groove 50 is preferably an annular groove, and the annular groove is centered on the boss. When the adjusting part 2 is in the first position, the first protrusion 5 is in contact with the first groove 50 to form a stable face seal.
[0046] Further, when the main body 1-1 and the valve cover 1-2 are connected to each other, a clamping cavity for clamping the first flange part 3-3 of the flexible seal 3 is formed at the joint of the main body 1-1 and the valve cover 1-2. When the main body 1-1 and the valve cover 1-2 are assembled and locked, the main body 1-1 and the valve cover 1-2 clamp the first flange part 3-3 of the flexible seal 3 to realize the connection of the main body 1-1, the valve cover 1-2 and the flexible seal 3.
[0047] Further, as shown in Figure 6 , a locking protrusion 70 is arranged in the clamping cavity, the locking protrusion 70 is preferably an annular protrusion, and the locking protrusion 70 is preferably integrally formed at the inner stepped surface edge of the main body 1-1. In addition, a groove corresponding to the locking protrusion 70 is arranged on the surface of the first flange part 3-3. When the first flange part 3-3 is clamped, the locking protrusion 70 and the first flange 3-3 are engaged with each other to prevent the first flange part 3-3 from being separated from the clamping cavity.
[0048] In addition, under this design, when the main body 1-1 and the valve cover 1-2 are connected to each other, the first flange part 3-3 is sealed and connected to the valve body 1 along the circumferential wall of the valve body 1, so that other functional components (such as the adjusting part 2 and the elastic part 4) in the safety valve are independent and separated from the main valve port 10 and the pressure relief port 20, so as to avoid the erosion of the medium in the safety valve to the built-in functional elements of the safety valve, which effectively prolongs the service life of the safety valve.
[0049] It should be noted that in other embodiments, the flexible seal 3 and the valve body 1 can be connected by thread connection or other detachable connection modes.
[0050] Further, as shown in Figure 7As shown, the adjusting member 2 comprises a stem portion 2-1, a head portion 2-2, a second flange portion 2-3 and a handle portion 2-4. The stem portion 2-1 is arranged along the axial direction of the valve body 1, and is integrally connected with the head portion 2-2 at one end close to the main valve port 10, and is integrally connected with the handle portion 2-4 at the other end. In addition, the second flange portion 2-3 is connected to the circumferential edge of the head portion 2-2 and extends away from the main valve port 10, so that the second flange portion 2-3, the head portion 2-2 and the stem portion 2-1 can form a containing cavity for containing the elastic member 4. In addition, the circumferential surface of the handle portion 2-4 is provided with a third groove for facilitating the user to pull the handle portion 2-4. In other embodiments, the third groove can also be replaced by a thread, a protrusion, a stripe or the like structure. It should be noted that when the safety valve is assembled, the handle portion 2-4 always penetrates through the valve body 1.
[0051] Further, the adjusting member 2 is adapted to be coupled to the flexible connecting portion 3-2. As preferred, the circumferential surface of one of the adjusting member 2 and the flexible connecting portion 3-2 is provided with a second protrusion 6, and the other of the adjusting member 2 and the flexible connecting portion 3-2 is provided with a second groove 60 for embedding the second protrusion 6.
[0052] As preferred, the second groove 60 is opened in the circumferential direction of the head portion 2-2 of the adjusting member 2, and the second protrusion 6 is protruded inside the flexible connecting portion 3-2 of the flexible sealing member 3.
[0053] It should be noted that when assembling the safety valve, the flexible sealing member 3 is first installed into the main body 1-1 through the installation port 30 of the main body 1-1, and then the adjusting member 2 is installed into the main body 1-1 through the installation port 30, so that the second groove 60 on the adjusting member 2 and the second protrusion 6 between the flexible sealing member 3 form an assembly relationship. Then the elastic member 4 is installed, so that the elastic member 4 abuts against the adjusting member 2; and then the valve cover 1-2 is threadedly assembled to the main body 1-1, so that the first flange portion 3-3 of the flexible sealing member 3 is tightly locked at the joint of the main body 1-1 and the valve cover 1-2, and so that the end of the elastic member 4 away from the flexible sealing member 3 abuts against the inner wall of the valve cover 1-2, and so that the handle portion 2-4 in the adjusting member 2 is located outside the valve cover 1-2, thereby completing the assembly. When the user needs to actively release the pressure of the safety valve, only needs to pull the handle portion 2-4 of the adjusting member 2 along the axial direction, so as to achieve active pressure release.
[0054] Further, in order to facilitate the installation of the safety valve into the fluid system, such as Figure 1 As shown, the valve body 1 is provided with a ring groove in the circumferential direction at the outer end of the main valve port 10, and a plurality of ring grooves are arranged along the axial direction of the valve body 1. In addition, the valve body 1 is provided with an external connecting structure 7 at the outer end of the pressure relief port 20 for connecting an external extension member.
[0055] In the embodiment, the external connection structure 7 is an external thread arranged on the outer periphery of the valve body 1. In other embodiments, the external connection structure 7 can be a flange or other connection structure capable of forming a connection relationship between the valve body 1 and an external structure.
[0056] It should be noted that in some embodiments, some components of the pull-type safety valve can be made of plastic, brass or other materials. For example, the valve body 1 can be made of brass or plastic, and the adjusting component 2 can be made of plastic.
[0057] In addition, as shown in Figure 8 In some other embodiments, the valve cover 1-2 in the valve body 1 includes a cover body part 1-21 and an adjusting part 1-22. A threaded hole is arranged at the center of the end face of the cover body part 1-21. The adjusting part 1-22 is threadedly connected to the cover body part 1-21 along the threaded hole, and the adjusting part 1-22 can be axially displaced on the cover body part 1-21.
[0058] In addition, the through hole 40 in the valve cover 1-2 is located on the adjusting part 1-22, and the adjusting component 2 and the elastic component 4 are in contact with the adjusting part 1-22. During use, the user can adjust the position of the adjusting part 1-22 by screwing to adjust the compression degree of the elastic component 4, so as to actively control the pressure relief threshold of the safety valve.
