[0040] This embodiment provides an electric valve, such as Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, the electric valve includes a valve seat assembly 1, a drive assembly 2, and a connecting member 4. The valve seat assembly 1 is provided with a mounting hole 14. The drive assembly 2 is passed through the mounting hole 14. The connecting member 4 is arranged in the mounting hole 14. The connecting member 4 is sleeved on the outside of the drive assembly 2 and connected to the valve seat assembly 1.

[0041] In the electric valve provided in this embodiment, the connector 4 is sleeved on the outside of the drive assembly 2 and connected to the valve seat assembly 1, so that the drive assembly 2 is installed on the valve seat assembly 1 through the connector 4. Compared with the existing complex plug-in structure, only one connector 4 is needed to realize the installation between the drive assembly 2 and the valve seat assembly 1, which simplifies the structure and facilitates installation. At the same time, the connector 4 plays the role of an intermediate connection between the drive assembly 2 and the valve seat assembly 1, improving the stability and reliability of the connection between the drive assembly 2 and the valve seat assembly 1.

[0042] Specifically, during installation, the drive assembly 2 can be inserted into the mounting hole 14, the connector 4 can be sleeved on the outside of the drive assembly 2, and then the connector 4 and the valve seat assembly 1 can be connected. Alternatively, the connector 4 can be sleeved on the outside of the drive assembly 2 to form an integral structure, and then the integral structure can be passed through the mounting hole 14, and the connector 4 and the valve seat assembly 1 can be connected. Of course, the installation methods for the valve seat assembly 1, the drive assembly 2 and the connector 4 in this embodiment include but are not limited to the above two methods, and can also be other installation methods, which can be adjusted according to actual production needs.

[0043] Among them, Figure 2-Figure 4 As shown, the connector 4 may be a nut, and the connector 4 is a circular ring structure. The inner wall of the connector 4 is in contact with the drive assembly 2, and the outer wall of the connector 4 is in contact with the mounting hole 14 of the valve seat assembly 1. The connector 4 and the drive assembly 2 may be clearance fit or interference fit. The embodiment does not limit the fit between the connector 4 and the drive assembly 2, and it can be adjusted according to actual production needs.

[0044] In one embodiment, the outer wall of the connecting member 4 is provided with an external thread, and the inner wall of the mounting hole 14 is provided with an internal thread, and the external thread and the internal thread are threadably matched.

[0045] During installation, after the connector 4 is sleeved on the drive assembly 2, the connector 4 is screwed, and the connector 4 and the mounting hole 14 are threadedly connected under the cooperation of the external thread and the internal thread, so that the drive assembly 2 is locked with the valve seat assembly 1 through the connector 4. Specifically, a step is formed on the drive assembly 2, and the connector 4 is rotated to press the step to press the drive assembly 2 onto the valve seat assembly 1. In this way, the connector 4 passes through the step on the drive assembly 2 to achieve locking between the drive assembly 2 and the valve seat assembly 1.

[0046] During disassembly, the connector 4 can be screwed in reverse to disengage the connector 4 from the valve seat assembly 1. The external thread and the internal thread cooperate with each other, which facilitates the installation and disassembly of the connector 4 and the drive assembly 2 relative to the valve seat assembly 1, thereby reducing maintenance costs.

[0047] In one embodiment, a mounting portion 41 (such as Figure 4 The mounting portion 41 provides an operating position for the mounting tool, so that the operator can easily screw the connector 4 during the assembly process.

[0048] Specifically, the mounting portion 41 can be a notch, groove, through hole or blind hole, etc. arranged on the connecting member 4. The mounting portion 41 can be arranged at the end, inner edge or outer edge, etc. of the connecting member 4. This embodiment does not limit the shape structure and setting position of the mounting portion 41, and it can be adjusted according to actual production conditions.

[0049] The number of the mounting portions 41 may be one or more, and the plurality of mounting portions 41 are arranged on the connector 4 along the circumferential direction of the drive assembly 2, so that the mounting tool can apply a uniform screwing force when operating the connector 4. For example, the number of the mounting portions 41 is four, and the four mounting portions 41 are evenly distributed along the circumference of the drive assembly 2, and the angle between two adjacent mounting portions 41 is 90°.

[0050] In one embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the electric valve further includes a coil assembly 6, which is disposed on the valve seat assembly 1 and sleeved on the outside of the drive assembly 2. By controlling the on and off of the coil assembly 6, the coil assembly 6 generates a magnetic field, thereby controlling the movement of the drive assembly 2.

[0051] In one embodiment, Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the electric valve further includes a sealing ring 5, wherein the sealing ring 5 is disposed between the coil assembly 6 and the connector 4. The sealing ring 5 serves to isolate the coil assembly 6 from the valve seat assembly 1, thereby preventing moisture and the like from entering the coil assembly 6 and ensuring the reliability of the coil assembly 6.

[0052] A sealing groove 40 is provided between the coil assembly 6 , the valve seat assembly 1 and the connecting member 4 , and the sealing ring 5 is provided in the sealing groove 40 .

[0053] Among them, the sealing ring 5 can specifically be a sealing rubber ring or a sealing gasket. The sealing ring 5 is arranged in the sealing groove 40. The sealing groove 40 provides an accommodation space for the sealing ring 5. The sealing ring 5 serves to isolate the valve seat assembly 1 and the drive assembly 2, reduce the risk of water vapor and the like entering the drive assembly 2 and the valve seat assembly 1, and improve the sealing effect of the drive assembly 2 and the valve seat assembly 1.

[0054] In one embodiment, along the axial direction of the drive assembly 2 and toward the sealing ring 5 , the top surface of the connecting member 4 is lower than the top surface of the valve seat assembly 1 , forming a sealing groove 40 .

[0055] Specifically, the top surface of the valve seat assembly 1 is the notch of the sealing groove 40, the top surface of the connector 4 is the bottom of the sealing groove 40, and the inner wall of the mounting hole 14 is the inner wall of the sealing groove 40. The top surface of the connector 4 and the top surface of the valve seat assembly 1 are not flush, and there is a certain height difference between the top surface of the connector 4 and the top surface of the valve seat assembly 1, which is equivalent to the connector 4 being recessed relative to the valve seat assembly 1 in a direction away from the drive assembly 2 to form the sealing groove 40. The sealing groove 40 can be formed only by the relative height position between the connector 4 and the valve seat assembly 1, and there is no need to separately open grooves in the valve seat assembly 1 and the connector 4, thereby ensuring the structural strength of the valve group assembly and the connector 4, and the specific implementation structure is simple and the production cost is low.

[0056] The height of the sealing ring 5 is higher than the height of the sealing groove 40 , which improves the contact reliability between the coil assembly 6 and the sealing ring 5 and further improves the sealing effect.

[0057] In one embodiment, Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the coil assembly 6 includes a housing 61 and a coil 62. The coil 62 is arranged in the housing 61. The housing 61 provides a storage space for the coil 62. The housing 61 is connected to the valve seat assembly 1 to prevent the position of the coil assembly 6 from being offset relative to the valve seat assembly 1. The drive assembly 2 is inserted into the coil 62, and the movement of the drive assembly 2 is controlled by controlling the on and off of the coil 62.

[0058] In one embodiment, Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the coil assembly 6 further includes a fixing portion 63, which is disposed on the housing 61 and connected to the valve seat assembly 1. That is, the housing 61 is connected to the valve seat assembly 1 through the fixing portion 63, and the fixing portion 63 plays a role in installing and fixing the housing 61.

[0059] Specifically, Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the electric valve further includes a fixing member 7, the fixing member 7 may be a screw, the fixing portion 63 is provided with a first fixing hole 631, the valve seat assembly 1 is provided with a second fixing hole 15 corresponding to the first fixing hole 631, and the fixing member 7 is passed through the first fixing hole 631 and the second fixing hole 15, and is used for fixing the fixing portion 63 and the valve seat assembly 1. After tightening the fixing member 7, the fixing portion 63 is pressed against the valve seat assembly 1, and the sealing ring 5 between the housing 61 and the valve seat assembly 1 is compressed, thereby ensuring that water vapor does not enter the interior of the coil 62 and the interior of the valve seat assembly 1.

[0060] The housing 61 and the fixing portion 63 are an integrally formed structure.

[0061] Specifically, the housing 61 and the fixing portion 63 are integrally formed by injection molding, which saves time for separate production and assembly of parts, thereby reducing production costs.

[0062] In one embodiment, the housing 61 is a hollow cylindrical structure, a coil frame is disposed inside the housing 61, the coil 62 is wound around the coil frame, and the coil frame provides a winding position for the coil 62. A center hole is disposed at the center of the coil frame, and along the axial direction of the driving component 2, the top end of the driving component 2 is penetrated through the center hole.

[0063] In one embodiment, Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, a sealing plane 611 is provided on the side of the coil assembly 6 facing the valve seat assembly 1 , and the sealing plane 611 contacts the sealing ring 5 and presses the sealing ring 5 along the axial direction of the drive assembly 2 .

[0064] Since the coil 62 of the coil assembly 6 is sleeved on the drive assembly 2, the shell 61 is in contact with the valve seat assembly 1, and the position where the shell 61 of the coil assembly 6 contacts the sealing ring 5 on the side facing the valve seat assembly 1 is the sealing plane 611, which ensures the contact reliability between the shell 61 and the sealing ring 5, thereby improving the sealing effect of the coil assembly 6.

[0065] It can be understood that, along the axial direction of the driving assembly 2, the bottom surface of the sealing ring 5 is in contact with the connecting piece 4, that is, the bottom surface of the sealing ring 5 is in contact with the bottom of the sealing groove 40, the top surface of the sealing ring 5 is in contact with the sealing plane 611, and the peripheral surface of the sealing ring 5 is in contact with the mounting hole 14 of the valve seat assembly 1. At this time, a sealing ring 5 can simultaneously ensure the sealing performance of the valve seat assembly 1 and the coil assembly 6.

[0066] In one embodiment, Figure 2 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Fig.10As shown, the coil assembly 6 or the driving assembly 2 is provided with a positioning member 612, which is used to cooperate with the inner surface of the sealing ring 5 to position the sealing ring 5. The positioning member 612 can be used to position the sealing ring 5 to prevent the sealing ring 5 from moving.

[0067] For example, the positioning member 612 is convexly arranged on the side of the housing 61 of the coil assembly 6 facing the valve seat assembly 1, that is, the positioning member 612 extends along the bottom end surface of the housing 61 toward the side of the valve seat assembly 1 to form a boss structure, and the sealing ring 5 can be sleeved on the outer peripheral surface of the boss structure to limit the sealing ring 5 and ensure the reliability of the position of the sealing ring 5 relative to the coil assembly 6. This embodiment does not limit the position and extension direction of the positioning member 612 set on the housing 61 and the driving assembly 2, and can be adjusted according to actual production conditions.

[0068] In one embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the valve seat assembly 1 is provided with an inlet and outlet 11, a communication cavity 13 and a plurality of communication ports 12. The inlet and outlet 11 is connected to the communication cavity 13, and the communication port 12 is connected to the communication cavity 13. The drive assembly 2 includes a housing 21, a drive unit 22 and an output shaft 23. The housing 21 is arranged in the valve seat assembly 1, a drive source 221 is penetrated through the housing 21, and the output shaft 23 is arranged in the housing 21 and is transmission-connected to the drive unit 22. The reversing valve also includes a valve core 3, the valve core 3 is arranged in the communication cavity 13, the valve core 3 is provided with a circulation channel 31, the circulation channel 31 is connected to the inlet and outlet 11, the valve core 3 is connected to the output shaft 23, and the drive unit 22 drives the valve core 3 to rotate relative to the communication cavity 13 through the output shaft 23, so that the circulation channel 31 is selectively connected to the communication port 12.

[0069] The driving part 22 of the driving assembly 2 drives the valve core 3 to rotate through the output shaft 23, so that the circulation channel 31 can be connected with at least one of the multiple communication ports 12. When it is necessary to switch the pipeline, it is only necessary to rotate the valve core 3 to connect the circulation channel 31 with the corresponding communication port 12. The reversing valve has a simple structure, is easy to install, has few structural components, can reduce the setting of pipelines, and is convenient for staff to disassemble, assemble and repair.

[0070] In one embodiment, the driving unit 22 includes a driving source 221, which can be a motor assembly. By setting the motor assembly, it can be started by achieving zero pressure difference. During operation, it will not drive the valve core 3 to rotate due to changes in pressure difference. The reversing valve can be used to replace multiple single-channel electric valves.

[0071] Specifically, the driving source 221 includes a rotor 2211 and a core shaft 2212. The coil assembly 6 is sleeved on the outside of the shell 21, and the rotor 2211 is arranged inside the shell 21. By controlling the power on and off of the coil assembly 6, the magnetic field of the coil assembly 6 changes, so that the rotor 2211 rotates relative to the shell 21. The core shaft 2212 is penetrated by the rotor 2211. The core shaft 2212 serves as the output end of the driving source 221. The driving source 221 can output rotational torque through the core shaft 2212.

[0072] The coil assembly 6, the rotor 2211 and the mandrel 2212 actually constitute the motor structure, which realizes the zero-pressure differential start of the reversing valve, and the motor structure generally has a self-locking structure inside, so that when the reversing valve is powered off, even if the pressure differential changes, it can still ensure that the position of the valve core 3 will not change. Specifically, a self-locking structure can be provided in the driving source 221 and the reducer 222. If a power outage occurs after the valve core 3 is switched in place, the valve core 3 will remain stationary in this position to realize the self-locking function. Therefore, the reversing valve provided in this embodiment can improve the structural integration and increase the reliability of the overall structure. It can be understood that a self-locking structure can be provided on the rotor 2211 of the driving source 221 to realize the self-locking function of the motor structure.

[0073] In one embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the driving part 22 also includes a reducer 222, which is arranged in the shell 21, the driving source 221 is connected to the input end of the reducer 222, and the output end of the reducer 222 is connected to the output shaft 23. The driving source 221 drives the valve core 3 to rotate through the reducer 222 and the output shaft 23.

[0074] The reducer 222 is disposed between the driving source 221 and the output shaft 23. The reducer 222 can reduce the rotation speed of the driving source 221 and increase the torque of the driving source 221, so that the flow path can be switched more smoothly. It is understandable that a self-locking structure can also be provided on the reducer 222 to realize the self-locking function of the motor structure.

[0075] In one embodiment, the housing 21 includes a first housing 211 and a second housing 212, the second housing 212 is connected to the first housing 211, the rotor 2211 is disposed in the first housing 211, and the output shaft 23 is disposed in the second housing 212. Compared with the housing 21 of an integral structure, the first housing 211 and the second housing 212 are split structures, which facilitates the initial installation of the driving source 221 and the reducer 222.

[0076] In one embodiment, the reducer 222 includes a gear frame 2221, a sun gear 2222, a planetary gear 2223, a fixed gear ring 2224 and a movable gear ring 2225. The gear frame 2221 is disposed in the accommodation space, the mandrel 2212 of the driving source 221 is penetrated in the gear frame 2221, the sun gear 2222 is disposed in the accommodation space and sleeved on the outside of the mandrel 2212, and the fixed gear ring 2224 is disposed in the first housing 211 and fixed to the first housing 211. The planetary gear 2223 is rotatably connected to the gear frame 2221 and meshes with the sun gear 2222 and the fixed gear ring 2224. The movable gear ring 2225 is disposed in the second housing 212 and meshes with the planetary gear 2223, and the movable gear ring 2225 is connected to the output shaft 23. There are multiple planetary gears 2223 , which are arranged around the gear rack 2221 . The gear rack 2221 provides installation positions for the multiple planetary gears 2223 .

[0077] Specifically, the sun gear 2222 is fixed to the mandrel 2212, the fixed gear ring 2224 is fixed to the first housing 211, and the planetary gears 2223 are respectively meshed with the sun gear 2222, the fixed gear ring 2224 and the movable gear ring 2225.
