[0002] An exhaust valve, also known as a bleed valve, vent valve, air releaser or vacuum pump, is a device used to control the flow of gas in a pipeline. Its main function is to release or remove gas from the pipeline system, ensuring that only the required gas is in the pipeline to prevent air bag effect and blockage, and maintain the normal working pressure range of the system. The exhaust valve is usually installed at the highest or lowest point of the pressure pipeline system to cut off the flow of the medium during pipeline maintenance and modification.
[0003] Exhaust valves are widely used in various pipeline systems, including independent heating systems, central heating systems, heating boilers, central air conditioners, floor heating and solar heating systems, etc. In these systems, exhaust valves can quickly release or remove excess gas in the pipeline to ensure the normal operation of the system.
[0004] Most of the existing exhaust directions are diffused in all directions. In order to solve the above problem, at present, a Chinese patent with the announcement number CN218347961U discloses an automatic exhaust valve, which uses the exhaust hole on the exhaust adjustment cap to exhaust the gas. Although this method can adjust the exhaust direction and solve the use of some special conditions, the exhaust angle is limited, and the angle of the exhaust pipe cannot be adjusted, resulting in a limited scope of application.

It should be noted that the words "front", "rear", "left", "right", "upper" and "lower" used in the following description refer to directions in the accompanying drawings, and the words "bottom surface" and "top surface", "inside" and "outside" refer to directions toward or away from the geometric center of a specific component, respectively.
[0018] Reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an automatic exhaust valve includes a valve body 1, the valve body 1 includes a liquid inlet pipe 11, a liquid outlet pipe 12 and an exhaust pipe 13, the exhaust pipe 13 includes a pipe body 2, a float 3, a limit plate 4 and an exhaust assembly 5, the limit plate 4 is transversely installed in the inner cavity of the pipe body 2, and divides the inner cavity into an operating cavity 21 and a floating cavity 22, and the float 3 is slidably connected in the floating cavity 22;
[0019] The limiting plate 4 is provided with a plurality of groups of air holes 41, which are arranged equidistantly along the circumference of the limiting plate 4;
[0020] The exhaust assembly 5 is connected to the operating chamber 21 along the circumferential rotation of the tube body 2. The exhaust assembly 5 includes a connecting rod 51 arranged in an "L" shape. An exhaust groove is penetrated on the connecting rod 51. The connecting rod 51 is used to align with an air hole 41 thereof.
[0021] The design of the utility model adjusts the direction of the L-shaped connecting rod 51 by rotating the exhaust assembly 5, thereby controlling the exhaust direction of the gas.
[0022] Furthermore, the exhaust groove on the connecting rod 51 corresponds to the air vent 41 , so that the gas in the valve body 1 can be exhausted to a designated direction through the connecting rod 51 .
[0023] Embodiment 1: The connecting rod 51 is also provided with an air hole connected to the exhaust groove on the peripheral side of the operating chamber 21, so that the gas in the operating chamber 21 is discharged from the exhaust groove through the air hole;
[0024] Embodiment 2: A blocking plate is provided at the lower end of the connecting rod 51 to block the remaining air holes 41 that are not connected to the exhaust groove, so that the gas in the floating cavity 22 can only be discharged through the exhaust groove.
[0025] The exhaust assembly 5 also includes a mounting cover 52, which is rotatably connected to the upper end of the pipe body 2, and the connecting rod 51 is fixedly connected to the mounting cover 52. The design of the mounting cover 52 is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the mounting cover 52 is rotatably connected to the upper end of the tube body 2, and a sealing structure is provided between the mounting cover 52 and the tube body 2 to prevent gas leakage.
[0026] The inner wall of the operating cavity 21 is provided with a plurality of groups of limit blocks 23, and the limit blocks 23 are arranged equidistantly along the circumference of the tube body 2, and a limit area 24 is formed between two limit blocks 23;
[0027] A rotating block 53 is disposed on the inner wall of the installation cover 52 . The rotating block 53 is inserted into a limiting area 24 during the rotation of the installation cover 52 .
[0028] In the design of this structure, the rotating block 53 and the limiting block 23 are both arranged in an arc-shaped structure. There can be a sense of jamming during the rotation of the installation cover 52, and when the rotating block 53 is embedded in the limiting area 24, a limiting fit can be formed to avoid accidental rotation of the installation cover 52.
[0029] The limiting area 24 and the vent holes 41 are provided with the same array, and the position of the limiting area 24 and the position of the vent holes 41 are provided in a one-to-one correspondence. With this structural design, when the rotating block 53 is embedded in the limiting area 24, the connecting rod 51 can be aligned with the vent holes 41 to ensure the stability of gas circulation.
[0030] There are multiple groups of rotating blocks 53, and they are arranged one-to-one corresponding to the limiting areas 24. The design of this structure can enhance the strength of the limiting.
[0031] The end of the connecting rod 51 away from the tube body 2 is detachably connected to a blocking cap 6, which is rotatably connected to the connecting rod 51, and is provided with an exhaust hole 61. In the design of the structure, a threaded structure is provided on the connecting rod 51, and the blocking cap 6 is threadedly connected to the connecting rod 51. By rotating the blocking cap 6, the direction of the exhaust hole 61 can be adjusted, thereby controlling the exhaust direction.
[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, the rotation direction of the connecting rod 51 is horizontal circumferential, and the rotation direction of the blocking cover 6 is vertical circumferential, which can meet various usage conditions.
[0033] The connecting rod 51 includes a first rod body 7 and a second rod body 8. The second rod body 8 is located outside the tube body 2 and is made of rubber. The design of this structure can adjust the direction by bending the second rod body 8, so that it can be connected to other external air pipes, which is flexible and easy to use.
[0034] The limiting plate 4 is provided with a sliding groove 42 , and one end of the connecting rod 51 is slidably connected in the sliding groove 42 .
[0035] The design of this structure can play a role in sliding guidance and ensure the stability of the installation of the connecting rod 51.
[0036] A guide rod 9 is provided in the floating cavity 22, and the floating block 3 is connected to the guide rod 9. Figure 3 As shown, when liquid is introduced into the valve body 1, the float block 3 moves upward along the guide rod 9, so that the gas in the float chamber 22 flows from the corresponding vent hole 41 to the exhaust groove until it is discharged along the connecting rod 51;
[0037] When the liquid level drops, the float block 3 moves downward along the guide rod 9, the filling space in the float cavity 22 increases, and the external gas is sucked into the float cavity 22 by the connecting rod 51 to ensure the safety of the cavity.
