The opening and closing control and diversion mechanism 14 includes a movable rod 1401, a round rod 1402 fixed at one end of the movable rod 1401, the round rod 1402 being movably connected to the bottom of the connecting rod 10, an opening and closing element 1406 slidably connected to the outside of the movable rod 1401, a channel 1407 evenly opened circumferentially on the opening and closing element 1406, a movable plate 1410 slidably connected to one inner wall of the channel 1407, and one side of the movable plate 1410 being connected to a ball plug 1414 via a movable rod 1412.

[0021] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a support box 2 is fixed to the top of the main body 1 of the air valve, and an internal servo motor 3 is fixed to one inner wall of the support box 2. A signal transmitter 4 is fixed to one side of the internal servo motor 3, and the output end of the internal servo motor 3 is connected to the worm gear 5. The operation of the servo motor 3 can be remotely controlled by using the signal transmitter 4 and an external control system. The worm gear 5 can rotate under the action of the servo motor 3, thereby driving the corresponding components to rotate.

[0022] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the bottom of the worm 5 is meshed with a worm wheel 6, and a gear 7 is fixed to the rear side of the worm wheel 6. The bottom of the gear 7 is meshed with a rack 8, and one end of the rack 8 is fixed with a support frame 9. The top of the connecting rod 10 is rotatably connected to the inside of the support frame 9. When the worm 5 rotates, it can drive the worm wheel 6 to rotate, and the gear 7 will rotate accordingly, thereby driving the rack 8 to move left and right. At this time, the connecting rod 10 rotates in the through hole 11, and at the same time, the top of the connecting rod 10 rotates inside the support frame 9.

[0023] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 As shown, a sealing sleeve 12 is fixed to the inner top of the air valve body 1, and the sealing sleeve 12 is fixed to the outside of the connecting rod 10. The sealing sleeve 12 can play the role of isolation and sealing.

When the connecting rod 10 rotates, the round rod 1402 moves in the slide rail 13, thereby driving the movable rod 1401 to move left and right.

[0025] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, springs 1404 are symmetrically fixed on both sides of the movable rod 1401, and a slider 1403 is fixed between the two springs 1404. A first groove 1405 is provided in the opening and closing part 1406, and the slider 1403 is slidably connected in the first groove 1405. When the movable rod 1401 moves left and right, the opening and closing part 1406 moves left and right accordingly, which facilitates sealing or opening the air valve body 1. When the opening and closing part 1406 is in the open state, the air flows in the air valve body 1, and the slider 1403 can slide in the first groove 1405. The two springs 1404 can play a supporting and buffering role.

A moving plate 1410 is fixed to one side of the first piston 1409. A second sliding groove 1411 is provided on one inner wall of the channel 1407. The moving plate 1410 is slidably connected in the second sliding groove 1411. When the first piston 1409 slides in the first hydraulic cylinder 1408, the moving plate 1410 moves together with the first piston 1409, thereby driving the moving rod 1412 and the ball plug 1414 to move. The ball plug 1414 can seal or open the channel 1407. The second sliding groove 1411 plays a limiting role for the moving plate 1410.

[0027] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, a first limiting ring 1413 is fixed inside the channel 1407, and the moving rod 1412 passes through the first limiting ring 1413. The first limiting ring 1413 supports and limits the moving rod 1412.

[0028] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the other end of the movable rod 1401 is fixed with a connecting pipe 1416. The first cylinder 1408 is connected to the connecting pipe 1416 through a hose 1415. The inner side of the air valve body 1 is fixed with a second cylinder 1417. The connecting pipe 1416 passes through one end of the first cylinder 1408 and is connected to the second piston 1418. The second piston 1418 is slidably connected inside the second cylinder 1417.

When the second piston 1418 moves to the left, all the first pistons 1409 move to the left. When the second piston 1418 moves to the right, all the first pistons 1409 move to the right. The movement of the first pistons 1409 can drive the moving plate 1410, the moving rod 1412 and the ball plug 1414 to move, which facilitates the opening and closing of the control channel 1407.

[0029] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a second limiting ring 15 is fixed on the inner side of the air valve body 1, and the movable rod 1401 passes through the second limiting ring 15. The second limiting ring 15 plays a supporting and limiting role for the movable rod 1401.

[0030] The method of use and advantages of this invention: The servo-driven venturi valve with remote monitoring operates as follows: like Figures 1 to 7 As shown: First, the main body 1 of the air valve is installed on the air duct. A signal transmitter 4 and an external control system are used to remotely control the operation of the servo motor 3. The signal transmitter 4 is model HD-600TH. The servo motor 3 drives the worm gear 5 to rotate, which in turn drives the worm wheel 6 and gear 7 to rotate. The rack 8 moves left and right, driving the connecting rod 10 to rotate. The connecting rod 10 connects the rack 8 and the movable rod 1401. When the rack 8 moves left and right, the movable rod 1401 can move left and right under the action of the connecting rod 10. At this time, the connecting rod 10 rotates within the through hole 11, and the round rod 1402 moves within the slide rail 13. The movable rod 1401... The movement of the opening and closing element 1406 facilitates the control of the opening and closing of the air valve body 1 and the air volume. When the opening and closing element 1406 moves to the left to close, the moving rod 1401 moves to the left, causing the connecting pipe 1416 and the second piston 1418 to move to the left. All the first pistons 1409 move to the left, and all the ball plugs 1414 move to the left, thereby sealing all the channels 1407. When the opening and closing element 1406 moves to the right to open, all the ball plugs 1414 move to the right, thereby opening all the channels 1407. The air can flow in the channels 1407. The channels 1407 are evenly distributed around the air valve body 1, making the air flow more dispersed and uniform.
