Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of valves, in particular to a hexagonal ball valve type water distributor. Background Art

[0002] The hexagonal ball valve manifold is a special plumbing device, mainly used in water heating systems, especially floor heating systems. It has multiple water outlets, each of which can be controlled independently, so as to achieve precise adjustment of water flow in different areas or for different purposes. This type of manifold adopts a hexagonal design, which makes the overall structure of the manifold compact, occupies a small space, and is easy to install and use. Each water outlet is equipped with a ball valve, which can easily control the switch and size of the water flow by rotating the ball valve, and the operation is simple and convenient. Each water outlet can be adjusted independently, and the water flow in each area can be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs to meet different usage requirements. Made of high-quality materials, it has undergone strict production processes and quality control to ensure that the manifold has good durability and reliability. The hexagonal ball valve manifold is an efficient, convenient and practical water heating equipment, which is widely used in water heating systems in various places such as homes, offices, factories, etc.

[0003] In the prior art, the total flow limit of the water distributor is an issue that needs attention. Although each water outlet can be adjusted independently, when all water outlets are opened at the same time and reach the maximum flow, the total flow of the entire water distributor may be limited. This is mainly because the internal pipeline design of the water distributor has a certain flow upper limit. When this upper limit is exceeded, the flow will not be able to continue to increase. Therefore, in application scenarios that require a large flow, the water distributor may not be able to meet the demand. Although its structure is simple and easy to maintain, the wear of the ball valve and seals of the hexagonal ball valve water distributor during long-term use is a common problem. This is because the sealing surface of the ball valve will be rubbed during the continuous opening and closing process. Over time, the material will gradually wear, resulting in a decrease in sealing performance and even possible leakage. In order to maintain the normal operation of the water distributor, it is necessary to regularly replace worn ball valves and seals, which will undoubtedly increase maintenance costs. In order to reduce maintenance costs, users often need to take some measures when using the water distributor. For example, clean the water distributor regularly to prevent impurities and dirt from clogging the water outlet or affecting the normal operation of the ball valve; regularly check the wear of the ball valve and seals, and replace the seriously worn parts in time; during use, avoid excessive opening or closing of the ball valve to reduce friction on the sealing surface. This not only increases the user's cost of use, but also affects the user experience to a certain extent. Utility Model Content

[0021] 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.

[0022] See also Figure 1-4 A hexagonal ball valve water distributor comprises a guide tube 1, a water outlet 2 is arranged at the lower end of the guide tube 1, the water outlet 2 is connected to a ball valve 3, a limiting plate 4 is arranged in the inner cavity of the guide tube 1 at a position corresponding to the water outlet 2 through an adjusting member 8, the limiting plate 4 comprises an upper plate 401 and a lower plate 402, the upper plate 401 and the lower plate 402 are connected through a rotating rod 5, both ends of the rotating rod 5 are clamped with a slide groove 9 on the inner cavity wall of the guide tube 1, the limiting plate 4 realizes the expansion and closing of the upper plate 401 and the lower plate 402 through the rotation of the adjusting member 8, and controls the water flow rate of each water outlet 2.

[0023] The flow guide pipe 1 is the main part of the hexagonal ball valve type water distributor, and is usually made of durable metal material to ensure that it can withstand the water flow pressure for a long time without deformation. The water diversion port 2 is located at the lower end of the flow guide pipe 1, and its number and layout are determined according to the actual application requirements. Each water diversion port 2 is equipped with a spherical valve 3, which is fixed to the water diversion port 2 by threads or other connection methods. The flow limiting plate 4 is made of lightweight, water-resistant material, such as plastic or aluminum alloy. The upper plate 401 and the lower plate 402 are connected by a rotating rod 5, and the two ends of the rotating rod 5 are designed with a structure that adapts to the slide groove 9, so that it can move smoothly in the slide groove 9 on the inner cavity wall of the flow guide pipe 1.

[0024] First, place the flow limiting plate 4 in the inner cavity of the guide tube 1 at the corresponding position of the water diversion port 2, and ensure that both ends of the rotating rod 5 can be smoothly inserted into the slide groove 9. Then, install the ball valve 3 on each water diversion port 2, and ensure that it is tightly connected to the water diversion port 2 without water leakage. Finally, check whether the entire water diversion device is loose or leaking, and make corresponding adjustments.

[0025] The water diversion port 2 can be easily opened or closed by rotating the handle or actuator of the ball valve 3. The flow restriction plate 4 is rotated using an adjustment member 8 (such as a rotating handle or a lever). When the flow restriction plate 4 is rotated, the expansion angle between the upper plate 401 and the lower plate 402 changes, thereby changing the flow rate through the water diversion port 2. The flow rate of each water diversion port 2 can be accurately adjusted by observing the water flow or using a flow metering device.

[0026] By adjusting the expansion angle of the limiting plate 4, the flow rate of each water diversion port 2 can be accurately controlled to meet the needs of different application scenarios. Using the ball valve 3 and the adjusting member 8, the flow rate can be easily opened, closed and adjusted, and the operation is simple and convenient. The entire water distributor adopts a hexagonal design with a compact structure and space saving. At the same time, it is made of durable metal materials and can withstand water flow pressure for a long time without deformation. Due to the use of standard ball valves 3, this water distributor is compatible with most ball valves 3 on the market, which enhances its versatility and practicality. The structure of the water distributor is simple and clear, and it is very easy to maintain. If a failure occurs or maintenance is required, just disassemble the corresponding parts.

[0027] The adjusting member 8 includes a knob head 802 , a threaded rod 801 is disposed at the lower end of the knob head 802 , and the threaded rod 801 is connected to the threaded groove disposed on the flow limiting plate 4 . The threaded grooves disposed on the upper plate 401 and the lower plate 402 have opposite rotation directions.

[0028] Through the design of the knob head 802, the user can easily adjust the flow limiting plate 4 without using additional tools. This intuitive and simple operation method makes the use of the water divider more convenient. Since the threaded grooves set on the upper plate 401 and the lower plate 402 rotate in opposite directions, when the knob head 802 rotates, the upper plate 401 and the lower plate 402 will move in opposite directions, thereby accurately controlling the expansion or closing degree of the flow limiting plate 4. This design makes the flow regulation more accurate and reliable. Threaded connection is a common mechanical connection method with high strength and stability. Through the connection of the threaded rod 801 and the threaded groove, it can be ensured that the connection between the adjusting member 8 and the flow limiting plate 4 is firm and reliable, and is not easy to loosen or damage. This design helps to improve the durability of the water divider. If the adjusting member 8 or the flow limiting plate 4 needs to be maintained or replaced, the threaded connection design makes disassembly and installation simple and easy. The user only needs to rotate the knob head 802 to easily disassemble or install the relevant parts, which greatly simplifies the maintenance process.

[0029] The threaded rod 801 is inserted into the inner cavity of the guide tube 1 through a through hole arranged at the upper end of the guide tube 1 and connected to the flow limiting plate 4. A groove is arranged at the position of the through hole on the upper end surface of the guide tube 1, a sealing ring 6 is arranged in the groove, and a cover plate 7 is arranged on the upper end of the sealing ring 6.

[0030] By rotating the knob head 802, the user can easily and accurately adjust the expansion angle of the flow limiting plate 4, thereby achieving precise control of the flow rate. The design of the knob head 802 makes the operation easier, and the user can adjust the flow rate without using any tools. By setting the groove, the sealing ring 6 and the cover plate 7, the good sealing of the upper end of the guide tube 1 is ensured, the leakage of the water flow is prevented, and the normal operation of the water distributor is ensured. Due to the clear structure and stable sealing performance, the water distributor is not prone to failure in daily use, and even if maintenance is required, it is very simple and convenient.

[0031] The inner cavity cross section of the flow guide pipe 1 is rectangular, and its width is the same as the width of the flow limiting plate 4. The number of the water diversion ports 2 is at least three, and the specific number is determined according to the length of the flow guide pipe 1.

[0032] Since the inner cavity cross-section of the guide tube 1 is rectangular, and the width of the limiting plate 4 is the same as the width of the inner cavity cross-section, the flow of the fluid in the guide tube 1 is more stable, reducing turbulence and resistance, and improving the fluid delivery efficiency. By adjusting the expansion angle of the limiting plate 4, the flow rate of each water diversion port 2 can be flexibly adjusted to meet the flow requirements of different application scenarios. The number of water diversion ports 2 can be customized according to the length of the guide tube 1, so that the water diverter can adapt to fluid distribution systems of different scales and complexities. Due to its clear structure and reasonable layout, the water diverter is not prone to failure in daily use, and even if maintenance is required, it is very simple and convenient.

[0033] Working principle: When the water distributor is connected, the fluid enters the inner cavity of the water distributor and is divided into two parts, upper and lower, by the flow limiting plate 4. By adjusting the expansion angle between the upper plate 401 and the lower plate 402, when the expansion angle is small, the flow passes normally. When the expansion angle is large, if the flow is small at this time, most of the fluid is blocked by the lower plate 402 and enters the water distribution port 2, thereby controlling the size of the flow at the water distribution port 2. The spherical water distribution valve connected to the water distribution port 2 uses a standard spherical valve 3, so that the water distributor can be suitable for most spherical valves 3.
