DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0022] like Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, a pneumatic valve positioner comprises a guide rail 1, a sliding rod 2, a positioning rod 3, a slider 4 and a locking mechanism 5. The guide rails 1 are vertically arranged on both sides of the valve, and a crossbeam 11 is arranged between the upper ends of a pair of guide rails 1 to limit the pair of guide rails 1 and ensure the accuracy of the guide rails 1 after installation.

[0023] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, a baffle 12 is arranged on the outer side of the guide rail 1 to abut against the side wall of the valve, a clamping plate 13 is arranged on the baffle 12 and is located on the back side of the valve, and screws 14 are threadedly connected on the clamping plate 13 to realize the rapid disassembly, assembly and replacement of the guide rail 1, and can meet the use requirements of different valves.

[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the sliding rod 2 is horizontally arranged at the bottommost position of the cylinder piston rod, and a clamp 21 is arranged at the tail end of the sliding rod 2 to realize the rapid disassembly and assembly of the sliding rod 2.

[0025] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the positioning rod 3 is transversely arranged between a pair of guide rails 1 and is used to resist the sliding rod 2. The slider 4 is arranged at both ends of the positioning rod 3 and is vertically slidably connected to the guide rail 1. The locking mechanism 5 is used to fix the slider 4 in the guide rail 1.

[0026] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the locking mechanism 5 includes a locking rod 51, a pull ring 52 and a tension spring 53. The locking rod 51 is horizontally slidably connected to the guide rail 1, and a row of locking holes 54 for the locking rod 51 to be inserted into the guide rail 1 is provided. The guide rail 1 is provided with digital markings 55 distributed beside the locking holes 54 to facilitate the determination of the valve opening. The pull ring 52 is provided at the outer end of the locking rod 51, and the tension spring 53 is provided in the slider 4 and is used to control the locking rod 51 to be inserted into the locking hole 54.

[0027] Therefore, when the opening of the valve needs to be adjusted, the pull ring 52 is pulled to drive the locking rod 51 to slide outward, and the locking rod 51 is disengaged from the locking hole 54, so that the vertical sliding of the slider 4 and the positioning rod 3 can be controlled. At this time, the digital mark 55 is observed until the position of the slider 4 is appropriate, and then the pull ring 52 is released, and the locking rod 51 is inserted into the locking hole 54 under the action of the tension spring 53, so that the slider 4 and the positioning rod 3 are fixed. Therefore, when the telescopic rod of the piston drives the sliding rod 2 to move, the positioning rod 3 can block the sliding rod 2 to control the telescopic amount of the piston rod, thereby limiting the opening of the valve, achieving the effect of conveniently adjusting the opening of the valve and controlling the flow of the valve.

[0028] like Figure 2 , Figure 4As shown, the positioning rod 3 includes an intermediate tube 31, a pull rod 32 and a spring 33. The pull rod 32 is horizontally slidably connected to both ends of the intermediate tube 31, and the spring 33 is used to control the pull rod 32 to slide outward. Therefore, by setting and using a positioning rod 3 with adjustable length, it is suitable for pneumatic valves of different spans, thereby improving the practicality of the positioner.

[0029] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 As shown, a reinforcing plate 34 is provided at the middle position of the intermediate pipe 31 to increase the structural strength of the intermediate pipe 31 and prevent the middle position from being damaged by impact, thereby effectively ensuring accurate and precise control of the valve opening.

[0030] The specific embodiments are merely explanations of the present invention and are not limitations of the present invention. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art may make modifications to the embodiments without any creative contribution as needed. However, as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present invention, they are protected by the patent law.
