Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of gas self-closing valves, and more specifically, to a safety gas self-closing valve. Background Art
[0002] The pipeline gas self-closing valve, referred to as the self-closing valve, is installed on the pipeline of the low-pressure gas system. When the pipeline gas supply pressure is under-pressure or over-pressure, it can automatically close without electricity or other external power and must be opened manually.
[0003] The existing gas self-closing valve will add a manual switch near the gas outlet to facilitate the user to manually control the opening and closing of the pipeline. For example, a Chinese patent with a publication (announcement) number of CN219774904U discloses a gas self-closing valve with a manual switch structure, including a valve body, an air inlet and an air outlet are arranged on both sides of the valve body, a valve cavity is arranged in the middle of the valve body, and a handle that can rotate along its central axis is arranged at the upper end of the valve body near the gas outlet. A valve stem that penetrates the inside of the valve body is fixedly connected below the handle, and the part of the valve stem located in the valve body has a working section arranged in a cam structure, and a valve core assembly is fixed between the valve stem and the valve cavity in the valve body;

[0019] 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. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0020] See also Figure 1-3 As shown, a safety gas self-closing valve of an embodiment of the utility model includes a self-closing valve body 1, an air inlet pipe 10 and an air outlet pipe 11. The upper end surface of the air outlet pipe 11 is formed with an assembly port 2 which is connected to the inside of the self-closing valve body 1. A valve stem 20 is rotatably arranged in the assembly port 2. One end of the valve stem 20 located in the self-closing valve body 1 is connected to a valve core assembly, and one end of the valve stem 20 located outside the self-closing valve body 1 is connected to a knob 21. A limit assembly for locking or unlocking the knob 21 is arranged on the outside of the assembly port 2.
[0021] When in use, the utility model safety gas self-closing valve is installed in a preset position. When the opening and closing of the gas pipeline needs to be manually controlled, the knob 21 is turned forward or reversely, and the knob 21 drives the valve stem 20 to rotate, and the valve stem 20 drives the valve core assembly to rotate to control the opening and closing of the pipeline. A limit assembly is also provided on the outer side of the assembly port 2, and the limit assembly is used to lock or unlock the knob 21. When the knob 21 is in a locked state, it will not cause incorrect opening and closing due to external force collision, thereby effectively improving the safety and practicality of the gas self-closing valve.
[0022] The limiting assembly includes a movable piece 3 rotatably arranged on the outer wall of the assembly opening 2, a limiting tooth 30 is formed at one end of the movable piece 3, an extension portion 22 adapted to the assembly opening 2 is formed at the lower end of the knob 21, and a plurality of limiting grooves 23 adapted to the limiting tooth 30 are equidistant and spaced apart on the outer circumference of the extension portion 22; a matching portion 31 is formed on one side of the movable piece 3, a pivot 32 is fixedly penetrated at the center of the matching portion 31, two fixing ears 33 are correspondingly arranged on the outer side of the assembly opening 2, and the pivot 32 is rotatably installed between the two fixing ears 33; an arc-shaped pressing portion 34 is formed at the end of the movable piece 3 away from the limiting tooth 30, a fixed seat 35 is installed at the outer side of the assembly opening 2 at a position corresponding to the arc-shaped pressing portion 34, a top column 36 is telescopically arranged in the fixed seat 35, and a spring member 37 is fixedly arranged between the inner end surface of the top column 36 and the inner bottom wall of the fixed seat 35.
[0023] When in use, the top column 36 is telescopically arranged in the fixed seat 35, specifically, a movable groove is formed on one side of the fixed seat 35, and an annular groove extends from the inner circumference of the movable groove, the top column 36 is adapted to the movable groove, and an annular portion adapted to the annular groove is extended from the inner end head, and the movable path of the top column 36 is guided and limited by the cooperation between the annular groove and the annular portion, and the two ends of the spring member 37 are respectively fixedly connected to the inner end surface of the top column 36 and the bottom wall of the movable groove; in the initial state, the top column 36 is pushed out of the fixed seat 35 due to the action force of the spring member 37 and abuts against the arc-shaped pressing portion 34 of the movable sheet 3, at this time, the other end of the movable sheet 3 contacts the extension portion 22 of the knob 21, and in the above state, the limiting tooth 30 of the movable sheet 3 forms a limiting clamp with one of the limiting grooves 23 on the outer circumference of the extension portion 22 to achieve the locking of the knob 21;
[0024] When it is necessary to release the lock of the knob 21, the arc-shaped pressing portion 34 is pressed toward the side of the assembly opening 2. The arc-shaped pressing portion 34 causes the top column 36 to overcome the force of the spring member 37 and retract into the fixed seat 35. The movable sheet 3 drives the limiting tooth 30 to withdraw from the corresponding limiting groove 23 through the rotation cooperation between the pivot 32 and the two fixing ears 33. At this time, the knob 21 is unlocked and can rotate freely.
[0025] The valve core assembly includes a switch ball 4 , and two sealing pads 40 are correspondingly installed on both sides of the switch ball 4 . A locking joint 41 for pressing the sealing pads 40 is also threadedly connected to the outer side of the air outlet pipe 11 .
[0026] When in use, the locking joint 41 is fixedly installed on the outer port of the exhaust pipe 11 through a threaded connection. When the locking joint 41 is in the installed state, the sealing gasket 40 on one side presses the switch ball 4, and the switch ball 4 presses the sealing gasket 40 on the other side. Through the cooperation between the two sealing gaskets 40 and the switch ball 4, the switch ball 4 is ensured to open and close stably and the sealing effect when the switch ball 4 is closed is improved.
[0027] The knob 21 has a top surface formed with an accommodating recess 28 and a fastening through hole 24 formed in the bottom surface of the accommodating recess 28 . The valve stem 20 has a threaded hole 25 formed at a position corresponding to the fastening through hole 24 and a fastener 26 connected to the threaded hole 25 .
[0028] When in use, the knob 21 and the valve stem 20 are molded with assembly recesses on their mounting sides. When installing the knob 21, align the assembly recess with the valve stem 20 and push it in. Then, pass the fastener 26 (bolt or screw) through the accommodating recess 28, the fastening through hole 24 and the assembly recess and then tighten it with the threaded hole 25 to complete the installation and fixation of the knob 21.
[0029] An identification block 27 is installed at the opening of the accommodating recess 28 .
[0030] When in use, the identification block 27 indicates the current open or closed state of the knob 21, so that the staff can more intuitively obtain the use state of the knob 21, thereby improving the convenience of using the product; further, the identification block 27 can protect the fastener 26 to prevent the fastener 26 from rusting due to contact with external air or water.
