AI Technical Summary
In existing food vacuum freeze-drying equipment, vacuum containers are prone to collapse under high vacuum values, and excessive pressure when the pressure-bearing exhaust pipe leaks leads to damage to the container, causing economic and safety risks.
A pressure balance valve including a housing, upper and lower flanges, movable guide rods and sealing gaskets is designed. Through the cooperation of the upper and lower movable guide rods and sealing gaskets, the vacuum container is ensured to operate normally within the set range and discharged during leakage. High-pressure gas protects the safety of the container; introduces external air when the vacuum is too high to prevent the container from collapse.
It effectively prevents economic losses and safety risks caused by high vacuum collapse and pressure-bearing tube bundle leakage, and ensures that the equipment operates normally within the set vacuum value range.

[0017] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 The lower end of the shell 6 is connected to a lower flange 10 by screws, and the upper end of the lower flange 10 is in contact with a third sealing gasket 9. The third sealing gasket 9 is in contact with the shell 6. By setting the third sealing gasket 9, the sealing between the lower flange 10 and the shell 6 is increased. A lower rib plate 13 is welded to the lower end of the lower flange 10, and the end of the lower rib plate 13 away from the lower flange 10 is fixedly connected to a lower sleeve 12. The lower sleeve 12 is slidably connected to the inside of the lower sleeve 12, and the outer side of the lower movable guide rod 8 is slidably connected to the fourth sealing gasket 11. The fourth sealing gasket 11 is in contact with the lower flange 10. By setting the fourth sealing gasket 11, the sealing between the lower movable guide rod 8 and the lower flange 10 is increased. An end cover 16 is provided at the rear end of the shell 6, and an opening is opened in the middle of the end cover 16. By setting the end cover 16, the end of the shell 6 is blocked.
[0018] The specific implementation process of the utility model is as follows: when the pressure-bearing tube bundle in the vacuum volume leaks, the leaked gas enters the shell 6 through the end cover 16 connected to the vacuum container and the balancing valve, causing the pressure in the shell 6 to increase. When the high-pressure gas pressure increases to a certain value, it overcomes the weight of the upper movable guide rod 7, the upper pressure plate 2 and the counterweight flange 1, thereby driving the upper movable guide rod 7, the upper pressure plate 2 and the counterweight flange 1 to move upward, so that a gap is generated between the upper movable guide rod 7, the upper pressure plate 2 and the counterweight flange 1 and the balancing valve shell 6, so as to discharge the high-pressure gas to the outside of the vacuum container. The pressure value of the high-pressure gas can be ensured by adjusting the weight of the counterweight flange 1, thereby protecting the safety of the vacuum volume and avoiding unnecessary economic losses. When the interior of the vacuum volume is in a vacuum state, the vacuum container makes the interior of the balancing valve in a vacuum state through the end cover 16 connected to the balancing valve, and the lower movable guide rod 8 passes through the fourth The sealing gasket 11 forms a sealing system. When the vacuum degree in the container is higher than the set vacuum value range, the lower movable guide rod 8 overcomes its own weight and moves upward under the vacuum state, so that a gap is generated between the lower movable guide rod 8 and the balancing valve housing 6, so that external gas can enter the vacuum container. The vacuum value inside the housing 6 can be ensured by adjusting the weight of the lower movable guide rod 8. When the vacuum degree of the vacuum container reaches the set vacuum value range due to external air entering the system, the lower movable guide rod 8 overcomes the resistance in the container by its own weight and moves downward. The lower movable guide rod 8 and the fourth sealing gasket 11 are sealed by the weight of the lower movable guide rod 8, so that the vacuum container can work normally within the set vacuum value range, thereby protecting the vacuum value of the vacuum volume during the working process and avoiding unnecessary economic losses such as container collapse due to excessive vacuum.
