[0051] The present application will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0052] As Figures 1-6The diagram shows a pressure reducing valve for soda water cylinders, comprising a valve body having a cylinder mounting port 11 and an outlet port 51. The cylinder mounting port 11 is connected to the cylinder, and the cylinder opening is equipped with a cylinder valve. The valve body has a pressure reducing mechanism, which includes a valve core assembly disposed within the valve body. The valve body also has an air inlet assembly, which includes a floating piston 2. The valve body has a piston chamber, and a portion of the floating piston 2 is movably disposed within the piston chamber, dividing the piston chamber into a first chamber 61 and a second chamber 62. The valve core assembly is located between the first chamber 61 and the outlet port 51. The second chamber 62 communicates with the outside of the valve body, i.e., with the atmosphere, to balance pressure and ensure that the floating piston 2 can slide normally.

[0053] refer to Figure 2 , Figure 4 The valve body is provided with a through hole 12, which is located between the piston chamber and the gas cylinder mounting port 11, and a portion of the floating piston 2 is movably inserted through the through hole 12.

[0054] The floating piston 2 has an air intake channel 23, one end of which is connected to the first chamber 61, and the other end of which is connected to the gas cylinder mounting port 11.

[0055] When the first chamber 61 contains compressed gas, the compressed gas in the first chamber 61 can push the floating piston 2 to move toward the direction of the gas cylinder mounting port 11.

[0056] Preferably, in this embodiment, the reference Figure 2 , Figure 4 The floating piston 2 includes a piston portion 22 and a push rod portion 21. The piston portion 22 and the push rod portion 21 are provided with an air intake channel 23. The piston portion 22 and the push rod portion 21 are arranged in a "T" shape on the longitudinal axis section. The piston portion 22 is located in the piston cavity. A first sealing ring 222 is provided between the piston portion 22 and the peripheral wall of the piston cavity. The piston portion 22 is slidably sealed to the peripheral wall of the piston cavity through the first sealing ring 222. In this embodiment, the piston portion 22 has a first mounting groove for installing the first sealing ring 222. Of course, in other embodiments, the first mounting groove can also be provided on the peripheral wall of the piston cavity.

[0057] The top rod part 21 movably penetrates the through hole 12, and a second sealing ring 213 is arranged between the top rod part 21 and the circumferential side wall of the through hole 12. The top rod part 21 is in sliding sealing cooperation with the circumferential side wall of the through hole 12 through the second sealing ring 213. In the embodiment, the top rod part 21 has a second mounting groove for mounting the second sealing ring 213. Of course, in other embodiments, the second mounting groove can also be arranged on the circumferential side wall of the through hole 12.

[0058] Specifically, the first sealing ring 222 and the second sealing ring 213 are both O-shaped sealing rings.

[0059] With reference to Figure 2 , one end of the piston part 22 located in the first cavity 61 has a first pressure receiving surface 221, and the gas in the first cavity 61 acts on the first pressure receiving surface 221. An end of the top rod part 21 close to the gas cylinder mounting port 11 has a second pressure receiving surface 212. Specifically, the piston part 22 and the top rod part 21 have an annular transition surface therebetween, which is the second pressure receiving surface 212. The gas in the gas cylinder mounting port 11 acts on the second pressure receiving surface 212. The area of the first pressure receiving surface 221 is greater than the area of the second pressure receiving surface 212. Because the area of the first pressure receiving surface 221 is greater than the area of the second pressure receiving surface 212, the pressure generated by the gas in the first cavity 61 acting on the first pressure receiving surface 221 is greater than the pressure generated by the gas in the gas cylinder mounting port 11 acting on the second pressure receiving surface 212. Therefore, the floating piston 2 moves to the gas cylinder direction under the action of the gas pressure.

[0060] In the prior art, the bottle port of the soda gas cylinder is provided with a bottle valve for sealing and opening and closing the gas. The pressure reducing valve has a gas cylinder mounting port 11, and the gas cylinder is mounted in the gas cylinder mounting port 11 by a threaded connection, that is, the gas cylinder is screwed into the gas cylinder mounting port 11. The gas cylinder mounting port 11 of the soda gas cylinder has a sealing element for sealing. The pressure reducing valve has a thimble cooperating with the bottle valve. During the screwing process, the sealing element is first compressed against the bottle port of the gas cylinder to ensure the sealing and prevent gas leakage. With the continuous screwing action, the thimble gradually pushes open the valve core of the bottle valve, and the gas in the gas cylinder enters the gas cylinder mounting port 11 to apply a counterforce. At this time, the valve core of the bottle valve has not been completely opened, and the operator still needs to continue screwing. However, the counterforce makes the subsequent screwing operation laborious, and even the gas cylinder is difficult to screw. In this case, the operator cannot determine whether the valve core of the bottle valve has been completely opened to the position by hand feeling. This uncertainty makes it difficult for the operator to control the screwing force, and the screwing is easily overdone, which causes the sealing element to be plastically deformed due to excessive compression, resulting in sealing failure and safety hazards of gas leakage.

[0061] It should be noted that the top pin needs to be displaced to the position and keep the current position to ensure the continuous gas output of the gas cylinder, if the tightening force is too small, the displacement of the top pin is not in place, the valve core of the cylinder valve is not completely opened, which will cause insufficient gas output, affecting the production effect of the soda water, in addition, the sealing element is easily rebounded due to insufficient stress, after rebounding, the top pin cannot keep the existing displacement state, causing the interruption of gas supply, affecting the use; if the tightening force is too large, the sealing element will be damaged.

[0062] The pressure reducing valve suitable for the soda water gas cylinder disclosed by the application, in the process of rotating the gas cylinder into the gas cylinder mounting port 11, the top rod part 21 pushes open the valve core of the cylinder valve, so that the cylinder valve is initially opened, the gas in the gas cylinder enters the first cavity 61 through the gas inlet channel 23, when the first cavity 61 has compressed gas, the compressed gas in the first cavity 61 can push the floating piston 2 to move towards the gas cylinder mounting port 11, so that the top rod part 21 can further push open the valve core of the cylinder valve, ensuring that the valve core of the cylinder valve is completely opened, without the need for the operator to manually and laboriously rotate, avoiding the problem of damage to the sealing element due to excessive rotation, and realizing labor-saving operation; in addition, the top rod part 21 can continuously apply force to the valve core of the cylinder valve under the action of gas pressure, ensuring that the valve core of the cylinder valve is always in a completely open state, ensuring the stable supply of gas, so that the soda water gas cylinder can continuously and stably output carbon dioxide gas.

[0063] In an embodiment, the piston part 22 and the top rod part 21 are integrally arranged, and the piston part 22 and the top rod part 21 are coaxially arranged, and this integrated arrangement can ensure the connection strength and movement consistency between the piston part 22 and the top rod part 21.

[0064] In another embodiment, the piston part 22 and the top rod part 21 are fixedly connected through thread connection, welding or interference fit, etc., to ensure the stability of the connection, and the piston part 22 and the top rod part 21 are coaxially arranged to ensure the stability of the floating piston 2 during movement, avoiding the situation of deviation or shaking.

When the gas cylinder is connected to the gas cylinder mounting port 11, the mouth of the gas cylinder first contacts and abuts against the third sealing ring 111 to form a seal, and then the convex column 211 pushes open the valve core of the cylinder valve, so that the compressed gas in the gas cylinder enters the pressure reducing valve, ensuring effective sealing and connection of the gas cylinder and the gas cylinder mounting port 11.

[0071] Preferably, the cross section of the third sealing ring 111 is oval, and the long axis direction of the oval cross section is consistent with the height direction of the third sealing ring 111 (i.e. the axial direction / thickness direction during installation or use).
