[0022] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Those skilled in the art should know that the embodiments described below are part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0023] Any number of elements in the drawings is for illustration and not limitation, and any naming is for distinction only and does not have any limiting meaning.
[0024] The principle and spirit of the present invention are explained in detail below with reference to several representative embodiments of the present invention.
[0025] The utility model provides an exhaust assembly for an air suspension pump, such as Figures 1 to 5As shown, it includes a fixed-range plate 1, a valve plate 2, and a valve seat 3. The fixed-range plate 1, the valve plate 2, and the valve seat 3 are all located in the air pump. The air pump includes a cylinder head 4 and a cylinder body 6. The fixed-range plate 1, the valve plate 2, and the valve seat 3 are abutted and fitted between the cylinder body 6 and the cylinder head 4. A first mounting groove 31 is formed on the valve seat 3. The fixed-range plate 1 and the valve plate 2 are both located in the first mounting groove 31. The valve plate 2 is abutted and installed between the bottom end surface of the fixed-range plate 1 and the bottom end surface of the first mounting groove 31. A vent 33 for ventilation is provided on the valve seat 3, an air flow hole 21 is provided on the valve plate 2, and an air flow groove 313 is provided on the bottom end surface of the first mounting groove 31. The air flow hole 21, the air vent 33, and the air flow groove 313 are interconnected, and the valve plate 2 guides the granular medium into the air flow groove 313.
[0026] By adopting the above-mentioned technical scheme, the air flow hole 21 can effectively balance the pressure on both sides of the valve plate 2, ensuring that the valve plate 2 has good sealing performance in the closed state, and can smoothly pass the gas in the open state, and the air flow hole 21 with a planar spiral structure can guide the fluid to flow along a specific path, which helps to reduce the turbulence and eddy current of the fluid at the valve plate 2, reduce energy loss and noise, and guide the granular medium into the air flow groove 313 during the operation of the valve plate 2, so that the granular medium is deposited to achieve the effect of cleaning the gas.
[0027] In this embodiment, the air flow hole 21 is a planar spiral structure, and the width of the air flow hole 21 is smaller than the width of the air flow groove 313. In other embodiments, the air flow hole 21 can also be set to a variety of structures such as an annular hole, a strip hole, etc., or the air flow hole 21 can also be set to be equal to the width of the air flow groove 313. When the valve plate 2 is installed, the air flow hole 21 and the air flow groove 313 are staggered to limit the flow of the particulate medium in the gas, so that the particulate medium deposition can be realized to achieve the effect of cleaning the gas.
[0028] In this embodiment, the valve seat includes one, two or more grooves, which can be used for installation, limiting, support, etc. The fixed stroke plate and the valve plate are both embedded in the first installation groove.
[0029] In this embodiment, the three parts of the fixed-range plate 1, the valve plate 2 and the valve seat 3 are assembled together by riveting the valve seat 3. The air pump compresses the external air and sends it into the inflated object through the continuously reciprocating piston. During the compression process of the cylinder piston, when the air pump is working, the gas is compressed in the cylinder. Due to the existence of the valve plate 2, the gas can only enter the cylinder but cannot flow out of the cylinder. When the compression reaches a certain level, the gas pushes the valve plate 2 and opens, so that the gas passes through the fixed-range plate 1, the gap between the cylinder head 4 and the fixed-range plate 1, and the gap between the cylinder head 4 and the valve body in turn into the gap between the cylinder body 6 and the cylinder body 6 to achieve exhaust. When the gas is exhausted, the valve plate 2 will be closed again due to its own elasticity or external force, waiting for the next compression and exhaust process.
[0030] In this embodiment, the airflow groove 313 is configured as an annular structure, and an airflow cavity 13 for gas flow is formed on the side of the fixed plate 1 facing the valve plate 2. The airflow cavity 13 is configured as an annular structure, which can distribute the fluid and ensure that the fluid can flow smoothly and unimpeded when passing through the airflow hole 21 of the valve plate 2, which helps to reduce fluid resistance and improve the efficiency of the air pump. The annularly designed airflow groove 313 and airflow cavity 13 can form a good match with the airflow hole 21 on the valve plate 2. When the valve plate 2 is closed, the gap between the airflow groove 313 and the airflow hole 21 can be further reduced, thereby improving the sealing performance and preventing gas backflow.
[0031] In this embodiment, the fixed plate 1 is provided with a mounting hole 121 at the center, the cylinder head 4 is provided with a protrusion 41 that fits with the mounting hole 121, and the side wall of the working part 12 is provided with a plurality of ventilation holes 122, which are distributed along the circumferential direction around the mounting hole 121, and a support portion 123 is formed between two adjacent ventilation holes 122 and between the ventilation hole 122 and the mounting hole 121. In this embodiment, the central axes of the mounting hole 121, the protrusion 41, and the vent hole 33 coincide with each other, and the mounting hole The fit between 121 and the protrusion 41 ensures the precise installation and positioning between the cylinder head 4 and the stop plate 1, making the installation tooling of the cylinder head 4 simple, without the need to control the stop displacement, and ensuring the stability of the stop plate 1. The gas compressed by the piston is discharged through the vent hole 33 and discharged through the vent hole 122 to the gap between the cylinder head 4 and the stop plate 1 and the gap between the cylinder head 4 and the valve body. The support portion 123 facilitates the passage of the cylinder head 4, facilitates the installation of the cylinder head 4, and can effectively prevent damage to the stop plate 1.
[0032] In this embodiment, the valve seat 3 is provided with a limiting portion 32 for limiting the limiter plate 1 at the first mounting groove 31, so that the first mounting groove 31 forms a mounting portion 311 and an opening portion 312, the diameter of the mounting portion 311 is larger than the diameter of the opening portion 312, the limiter plate 1 includes a fixing portion 11 and a working portion 12, the fixing portion 11 and the limiting portion 32 are abutted against each other, the setting of the limiting portion 32 widens the riveting support surface of the valve plate, ensures the stability of the component, and enables the component to maintain its shape and function under high-pressure and high-speed airflow conditions, ensures the stable operation of the air pump, and facilitates the tooling guidance of the cylinder head 4.
[0033] It should be noted that, based on the bottom end surface of the first installation groove 31 , the height of the top end surface of the working portion 12 is higher than the height of the top end surface of the limiting portion 32 , so that the cylinder head 4 is installed.
[0034] In this embodiment, the valve seat 3 is configured as a stepped component, and the valve seat 3 includes a first mounting seat 34 and a second mounting seat 35. The first mounting groove 31 is located at the first mounting seat 34, and the second mounting seat 35 is connected to the cylinder body 6. The openings of the first mounting seat 34 and the second mounting seat 35 are respectively located at the upper and lower end surfaces of the valve seat 3. In order to make the valve seat 3 more firm and reliable, the ratio between the outer diameter of the first mounting seat 34 and the outer diameter of the second mounting seat 35 is 1:(0.4-0.8). In this embodiment, the ratio between the outer diameter of the first mounting seat 34 and the outer diameter of the second mounting seat 35 is 1:0.63.
[0035] In this embodiment, the surface on the first mounting groove 31 that abuts against the valve plate 2, the end surface of the protrusion 41 facing the fixed-range plate 1, and the surface on the first mounting groove 31 that abuts against the protrusion 41 are all provided with a coating 5, so that the connection stability between the cylinder head 4 and the exhaust component is higher, and the noise during the operation of the product can be effectively reduced. In this embodiment, the valve seat 3 is riveted so that the protrusion 41 abuts against the valve seat 3.
[0036] In this embodiment, the central axes of the cylinder head 4, the stop plate 1, the valve seat 3, and the cylinder body 6 coincide with each other. The cylinder head 4, the exhaust assembly, and the cylinder body 6 are sequentially sleeved and connected from top to bottom. A second mounting groove 351 is provided on the end of the valve seat 3 away from the first mounting groove 31 (located at the second mounting seat 35). The second mounting groove 351 is used to install the cylinder body 6 and the piston. A sealing groove 3511 is provided on the side wall of the second mounting groove 351. A sealing ring 3512 is embedded in the sealing groove 3511 to prevent leakage of gas compressed by the piston.
