[0054] To enable those skilled in the art to more clearly understand this application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0055] In related technologies, a check device includes a pipe and a check valve. The pipe has an inlet and an outlet, and the check valve is installed on the pipe. The check valve has a connection port that can connect the inlet and outlet. When the electrical equipment drains water, the connection port of the check valve opens, and water flows through the check device to the drain pipe. After drainage is completed, the connection port of the check valve closes to prevent residual water remaining in the drain pipe from flowing back.
[0056] However, the valve core of the check valve is made of flexible rubber, which will deform after long-term use, resulting in unreliable sealing and reduced sealing performance of the check valve.
[0057] Based on the above-mentioned technical problems, this application provides a check valve, a check device, and an electrical device, which aims to at least partially solve the technical problem of unreliable sealing of check valves after long-term use, so as to improve the sealing performance of check valves.
[0058] Figure 1 This diagram illustrates a check valve with its connection port in an open state, according to one or more embodiments of this application. Figure 2 It shows Figure 1 The diagram shows the check valve with its connecting hole in a closed state. Figure 3 It shows Figure 1 A partial schematic diagram of the pipes in the diagram. (Combined with...) Figures 1-3 The check valve provided in this application also includes a pipe a and a check valve b. The pipe a has an inlet a1 and an outlet a2. The check valve b is installed on the pipe a and has a connection port 11, which can connect the inlet a1 and the outlet a2.
[0059] Figure 4 It shows Figure 1 A cross-sectional schematic diagram. Combined with... Figure 4The check valve b includes a valve body 1 and a valve core 2. The valve body 1 is provided with a communication port 11 and a limiting part 18 is provided on the inner side wall of the valve body 1. The valve core 2 is movably disposed in the valve body 1 and has a reciprocating sealing head 21 to open and close the communication port 11 to connect or block the inlet end a1 and the outlet end a2. The valve core 2 is provided with a locking part 22. When the sealing head 21 of the valve core 2 seals the communication port 11, the locking part 22 of the valve core 2 can rotate to the bottom of the limiting part 18 to lock the position of the valve core 2.
[0060] The check valve b provided in this application has a connecting port 11 in its valve body 1, and a valve core 2 is disposed inside the valve body 1. The valve core 2 has a reciprocating sealing head 21 to open and close the connecting port 11, thereby opening and closing the corresponding pipeline a to achieve the check function. Since the inner side wall of the valve body 1 is provided with a limiting part 18, and the valve core 2 is provided with a locking part 22, the locking part 22 of the valve core 2 can be rotated to the lower part of the limiting part 18 to lock the sealing head 21 of the valve core 2 to seal the connecting port 11. This allows the sealing head 21 of the valve core 2 to be kept inside the connecting port 11 of the valve body 1, so that the sealing head 21 is pressed against the connecting port 11, thereby improving the sealing reliability and sealing effect of the sealing head 21, and has good practicality.
[0061] Combination Figure 4 In some embodiments, the check valve b may also include a movable element 3 that can move back and forth within the valve body 1. Figure 5 It shows Figure 4 Assembly diagram of the moving parts and valve core. Figure 6 It shows Figure 5 A structural diagram of the moving parts in the diagram. Figure 7 It shows Figure 5 A partial schematic diagram of the valve core. (Combined with...) Figures 5-7 The head of the movable part 3 is provided with a driving part 31, which can abut against the locking part 22 on the valve core 2 to drive the valve core 2 to move into the valve body 1 so that the sealing head 21 on the valve core 2 closes the communication port 11 on the valve body 1 to cut off the pipeline a.
[0062] Combination Figure 4 In some embodiments, the check valve b may further include a reset member 4 disposed within the valve body 1 to push the valve core 2 to move away from the communication port 11 to open the communication port 11.
[0063] In some embodiments, under the condition that the driving portion 31 abuts against the locking portion 22 on the valve core 2 to drive the valve core 2 to move into the valve body 1, the sealing head 21 on the valve core 2 closes the communication port 11 on the valve body 1, and at the same time, the restoring member 4 is compressed, under the condition that it is required to open the communication port 11, the movable member 3 is released, the restoring member 4 restores the deformation to drive the valve core 2 to move away from the communication port 11 to open the communication port 11.
[0064] In other embodiments, under the condition that the driving portion 31 abuts against the locking portion 22 on the valve core 2 to drive the valve core 2 to move into the valve body 1, the sealing head 21 on the valve core 2 closes the communication port 11 on the valve body 1, and at the same time, the restoring member 4 is stretched, under the condition that it is required to open the communication port 11, the movable member 3 is released, the restoring member 4 restores the deformation to drive the valve core 2 to move away from the communication port 11 to open the communication port 11.
[0065] In combination with 5- Figure 7 In some embodiments, the head portion of the driving portion 31 can be provided with a driving groove 32, the opening side of the driving groove 32 facing the communication port 11, the driving groove 32 having a first guide slope 321 inclined to the moving direction of the valve core 2, the locking portion 22 of the valve core 2 movably arranged in the driving groove 32, the locking portion 22 being provided with a second guide slope 221 matched with the first guide slope 321, the second guide slope 221 of the locking portion 22 being movable along the first guide slope 321 to make the locking portion 22 rotate to the lower side of the limiting portion 18. Under the condition that the driving member 7 drives the sealing head 21 of the valve core 2 to close the communication port 11 of the valve body 1, the control driving member 7 continues to move into the valve body 1, the driving member 7 provides an axial downward force to the valve core 2, the restoring member 4 provides an axial upward force to the valve core 2, due to the matching of the second guide slope 221 on the locking portion 22 and the first guide slope 321, the second guide slope 221 of the locking portion 22 is movable along the first guide slope 321, and further makes the locking portion 22 rotate to the lower side of the limiting portion 18 to lock the position of the sealing head 21 of the valve core 2, so that the sealing head 21 of the valve core 2 is kept in the communication port 11 of the valve body 1.
[0066] In combination with 5- Figure 7 In some embodiments, the driving groove 32 further has a limiting face 322, the limiting face 322 and at least part of the first guide slope 321 are oppositely arranged, the locking portion 22 can be blocked by the limiting face 322 to limit the rotating position of the locking portion 22, so that the valve core 2 cannot continue to rotate and is kept in a static posture to lock the position of the sealing head 21 of the valve core 2, so that the sealing head 21 of the valve core 2 is kept in the communication port 11 of the valve body 1.
[0067] In combination with 6, in some embodiments, the driving groove 32 can be V-shaped, i.e. the driving groove 32 is jagged, one side wall of which is the first guide slope 321 and the other side wall of which is the limiting surface 322, the top of the first guide slope 321 and the limiting surface 322 intersect, and the first guide slope 321 and the limiting surface 322 can be symmetrically arranged. In other embodiments, the driving groove 32 can also be U-shaped or other shapes, except that the driving groove 32 needs to have a slope as the first guide slope 321, and the shape of the limiting surface 322 can not be limited, for example, the limiting surface 322 can be a slope, an arc surface or a curved surface, etc.
[0068] In combination with Figure 7 In some embodiments, the locking portion 22 can be block-shaped, the first guide slope 321 can be arranged at the top of the locking portion 22, the locking portion 22 is provided with a first side surface 222 and a second side surface 223 on both sides thereof, the first side surface 222 is connected to the higher end of the first guide slope 321, and the second side surface 223 is connected to the lower end of the first guide slope 321, under the condition that the locking portion 22 rotates below the limiting portion 18, the first side surface 222 abuts against the limiting surface 322 to limit the rotating position of the locking portion 22.
[0069] In combination with Figure 7 In some embodiments, the first side surface 222 and the second side surface 223 can both be planes parallel to the axial direction of the valve core 2, or can be other shapes, for example, arc surfaces or curved surfaces, etc., which are not limited herein.
[0070] Figure 8 An internal schematic view of the valve body is shown. In combination with Figure 6 In addition Figure 8 In some embodiments, the outer peripheral surface of the movable element 3 can be provided with a first guide portion 33, and the inner side wall of the valve body 1 is provided with a second guide portion 12, the first guide portion 33 and the second guide portion 12 are in sliding fit to guide the reciprocating movement of the movable element 3 in the valve body 1.
[0071] In combination with Figure 6 In addition Figure 8 In some embodiments, the first guide portion 33 can include a guide protrusion 33 arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the movable element 3, and the second guide portion 12 can include a guide groove 12 arranged on the inner side wall of the valve body 1. When the movable element 3 reciprocates in the valve body 1, the guide protrusion 33 slides in the guide groove 12 to guide the reciprocating movement of the movable element 3 in the valve body 1.
[0072] In combination with Figure 8In some embodiments, the inner side wall of the valve body 1 is provided with two rows of limiting protrusions 13, which can be arranged along the moving direction of the movable member 3 in the valve body 1, and the two rows of limiting protrusions 13 and the inner side wall of the valve body 1 can be configured as the above-mentioned guide groove 12.
[0073] In combination Figure 4 In some embodiments, the driving part 31 is arranged on the bottom of the guide protrusion 33, and the locking part 22 can also reciprocate in the guide groove 12. Under the condition that the communication port 11 of the valve body 1 is in the open state, under the action of the elastic force of the reset member 4, the locking part 22 and the guide protrusion 33 on the driving member 7 move in the guide groove 12 away from the communication port 11 until they move to the highest position of the guide groove 12, so that the sealing head 21 on the valve core 2 is separated from the communication port 11, and the pipe body is in the conducting state. Under the condition that the communication port 11 of the valve body 1 is switched to the closed state, the control movable member 3 moves towards the communication port 11 and overcomes the elastic force of the reset member 4, so that the locking part 22 and the guide protrusion 33 on the driving member 7 move in the guide groove 12 towards the communication port 11 and are pushed out from the lowest position of the guide groove 12. When the locking part 22 is pushed out from the lowest position of the guide groove 12, the second guide slope 221 of the locking part 22 moves along the first guide slope 321 on the driving part 31 of the movable member 3, so that the locking part 22 is rotated to below the limiting part 18, to lock the position of the sealing head 21 of the valve core 2, so that the sealing head 21 of the valve core 2 is kept in the communication port 11 of the valve body 1. At this time, the movable member 3 can be released to keep the movable member 3 in a free state. Under the condition that it is required to switch the communication port 11 of the valve body 1 to the open state, the movable member 3 is controlled to move towards the communication port 11 and overcome the elastic force of the reset member 4, so that the second guide slope 221 of the locking part 22 moves along the first guide slope 321 on the driving part 31 of the movable member 3, so that the locking part 22 is rotated to below the guide protrusion 33 of the movable member 3, and then the movable member 3 is released. Under the action of the elastic force of the reset member 4, the locking part 22 and the guide protrusion 33 on the driving member 7 are pushed into the guide groove 12 from the lowest position of the guide groove 12 and move away from the communication port 11. When the locking part 22 and the guide protrusion 33 on the driving member 7 are in the guide groove 32 to the highest position of the guide groove 12, the sealing head 21 on the valve core 2 is separated from the communication port 11, so that the pipe body is in the conducting state.

[0077] In combination Figure 5 In some embodiments, the locking portion 22 has a locking part 224 protruding from the outer circumferential surface of the driving portion 31. When the second guiding slope 221 of the locking portion 22 moves along the first guiding slope 321 on the driving portion 31 of the movable member 3, the locking part 224 of the locking portion 22 can rotate to the lower side of the limiting portion 18 to lock the position of the sealing head 21 of the valve core 2, so that the sealing head 21 of the valve core 2 is kept in the communication port 11 of the valve body 1.
