[0023] 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 of 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.

[0024] Specific examples are given below.

[0025] See also Figure 1 - Figure 5When the valve body 1 is in operation, the cam 3 is pressed against the top of the valve body 1, and the cam 3 is pressed against the top of the valve body 1 to release the cam 3. When the valve body 1 is in operation, the cam 3 is pressed against the top of the valve body 1 to release the cam 3. When the water level rises, the floating plate 5 starts to float and the floating plate 5 starts to float, and begins to squeeze the limiting spring 6. When the water flow disappears instantly, the squeezed limiting spring 6 pushes the floating plate 5 in the opposite direction, so that the hollow check ball 4 returns to the bottom instantly. The refluxed water remains between the floating plate 5 and the surface of the hollow check ball 4, so that the hollow check ball 4 cannot continue to float, thereby preventing the liquid from flowing back. As the use time increases, some rust will appear on the surface of the vertical rod 3. At this time, it is only necessary to open the rotating spline 13, and the vertical rod 3 is slidably connected with the hollow check ball 4, so that the vertical rod 3 can be directly pulled out for replacement, and there is no need to replace the hollow check ball 4 and the vertical rod 3 as a whole, thereby reducing the maintenance cost.

[0026] Further, such as Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, one end of the water inlet pipe 8 is fixedly connected to the surface of the valve body 1; the check chamber 2 is located on one side of the water inlet pipe 8 and is provided with a lower curved water guide chamber 11; one end of the water outlet pipe 9 is fixedly connected to the surface of the valve body 1; the check chamber 2 is located on one side of the water outlet pipe 9 and is provided with an upper curved water guide chamber 12. When working, the water inlet pipe 8 and the water outlet pipe 9 are respectively arranged on both sides of the valve body 1, and the lower curved water guide chamber 11 is opened at the water inlet pipe 8 to achieve that the water flow first accumulates inside the lower curved water guide chamber 11, and when it reaches a certain height, the hollow check ball 4 is lifted, thereby achieving normal drainage work, and the upper curved water guide chamber 12 is opened at the water outlet pipe 9. If the water flows backward, it will first spread upward along the upper curved water guide chamber 12, and will not lift the hollow check ball 4. Instead, it will spread upward and will eventually slowly accumulate between the hollow check ball 4 and the surface of the floating plate 5, and the hollow check ball 4 will be stuck at the top of the lower curved water guide chamber 11, thereby achieving the function of non-return.

[0027] Further, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the top of the vertical rod 3 is clamped with the bottom of the rotating spline 13; the surface of the vertical rod 3 is slidably connected with the surface of the sealing cover 7; the surface of the sealing cover 7 is fixedly connected with a connecting clamp ring 14; the surface of the valve body 1 is provided with a clamp ring placement groove 15 adapted to the connecting clamp ring 14; the surface of the connecting clamp ring 14 is slidably connected with a fixing bolt 16; one end of the fixing bolt 16 passes through the connecting clamp ring 14 and the valve body 1 and extends to the interior of the valve body 1; the surface of the fixing bolt 16 is threadedly connected with the surface of the valve body 1. During operation, the rotating spline 13 is fixed to the top of the vertical rod 3, and the surface of the vertical rod 3 located inside the sealing cover 7 is slidably connected to the sealing cover 7, so that the vertical rod 3 is fixed on the sealing cover 7. When it needs to be removed, it is only necessary to rotate the rotating spline 13, and the sealing cover 7 is provided with a detachable structure, and the inside of the check chamber 2 is sealed at the same time. The sealing cover 7 is fixed in the retaining ring placement groove 15 on the surface of the valve body 1 by the fixing bolt 16 and the connecting retaining ring 14, which is convenient for disassembly and assembly, so that the inside of the valve body 1 can be quickly inspected and maintained, further improving the adaptability of use.

[0028] Working principle: Since the above patent provides a ball check valve, although it can be adjusted accordingly, if the medium passing through the inside of the check valve is water, it is inevitable that the surface of the connecting rod will be rusted and needs to be replaced. The sealing ball is fixedly connected to the connecting rod and the lower pressure plate, and there is a fixing frame and a sleeve in the middle, which makes it troublesome to disassemble. Once the connecting rod is replaced, the lower pressure plate and the sealing ball need to be replaced together, which leads to a high maintenance cost. When working, the check chamber 2 is opened inside the valve body 1, and the vertical rod 3 is clamped inside the valve body 1. The hollow check ball 4 is limited by the vertical rod 3. The hollow check ball 4 has a certain buoyancy and a light weight. It can be floated at any time when there is water or gas, and the vertical rod 3 limits it. When there is liquid flowing through When water flows, the hollow check ball 4 begins to float, and the float plate 5 also begins to float up, and begins to squeeze the limit spring 6. When the water flow disappears instantly, the squeezed limit spring 6 pushes the float plate 5 in the opposite direction, causing the hollow check ball 4 to return to the bottom instantly, and the refluxed water remains between the float plate 5 and the surface of the hollow check ball 4, making the hollow check ball 4 unable to continue to float, thereby preventing the liquid from flowing back. As the use time increases, some rust will appear on the surface of the vertical rod 3. At this time, it is only necessary to open the rotating spline 13, and the vertical rod 3 is slidably connected with the hollow check ball 4, so that the vertical rod 3 can be directly pulled out for replacement, without the need to replace the hollow check ball 4 and the vertical rod 3 as a whole, thereby reducing the maintenance cost. The water inlet pipe 8 and the water outlet pipe 9 are respectively arranged on both sides of the valve body 1. A downward curved water guiding cavity 11 is provided at the water pipe 8 so that the water flow first accumulates inside the downward curved water guiding cavity 11. When it reaches a certain height, the hollow check ball 4 is lifted to realize normal drainage. An upward curved water guiding cavity 12 is provided at the water outlet pipe 9. If the water flows backward, it will first spread upward along the upward curved water guiding cavity 12 without lifting the hollow check ball 4. Instead, it will spread upward and eventually slowly accumulate between the hollow check ball 4 and the surface of the floating plate 5, and the hollow check ball 4 will be stuck at the top of the downward curved water guiding cavity 11, so as to realize the check function. The rotating spline 13 is fixed to the top of the vertical rod 3. The surface of the vertical rod 3 located inside the sealing cover 7 is threadedly connected to the sealing cover 7, so that the vertical rod 3 is fixed on the sealing cover 7. When it needs to be removed, only It is sufficient to rotate the rotating spline 13, and the sealing cover 7 is provided with a detachable structure, and the inside of the check chamber 2 is sealed at the same time. The sealing cover 7 is fixed in the clamping ring placement groove 15 on the surface of the valve body 1 by means of the fixing bolts 16 and the connecting clamping ring 14, which is convenient for disassembly and assembly, so that the inside of the valve body 1 can be quickly inspected and maintained, and the adaptability of use is further improved. By arranging the hollow check ball 4 in the check chamber 2 and limiting it by the vertical rod 3, and the vertical rod 3 and the hollow check ball 4 are non-fixedly connected, when the surface of the vertical rod 3 is rusted and needs to be replaced, the rotating spline 13 can be opened, and the vertical rod 3 can be taken out of the valve body 1 for quick replacement. At the same time, there is no need to disassemble other connected objects, which reduces the maintenance cost and improves the adaptability of use.

[0029] The above shows and describes the basic principle, main features and advantages of the utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the utility model is not limited by the above embodiments, and the above embodiments and descriptions are only for explaining the principle of the utility model. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, the utility model may have various changes and improvements, and these changes and improvements fall within the scope of the utility model to be protected.
