[0022] The utility model adopts a circle of sealing mating surface 8 at the upper end of the valve port 9 to cooperate with the valve needle component 7 to realize the opening and closing of the valve port 9. Compared with the traditional sealing structure in which the end face of the sealing gasket and the end face of the valve needle component are butt-sealed, it can greatly improve the sealing effect and extend the service life. In addition, the specifications of the valve needle component 7 are relatively small, which can reduce costs.
[0023] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the outer wall of one end of the valve needle component 7 that cooperates with the sealing mating surface 8 is provided with a chamfer 11.

The sealing gasket 5 is also in the shape of a circular plate, and the outer side of the upper end of the sealing gasket 5 is provided with a first annular step 14, and the first annular step 14 and the inner wall of the mounting groove 13 form a first annular groove, and the pressure ring 12 is located in the first annular groove; the inner wall of the mounting groove 13 and the end face of the base 2 are limitedly matched with the first annular step 14, and then the sealing gasket 5 is pressed by the pressure ring 12, and at the same time, the inner wall of the mounting groove 13 will also limit the sealing gasket 5, so as to achieve the limited and tight compression of the sealing gasket 5.
[0026] Reference Figure 6 As shown, the outer side of the lower end of the sealing gasket 5 has a second annular step 15, and the second annular step 15 and the inner wall of the installation groove 13 form a second annular groove, and a reinforced sealing ring 4 is installed in the second annular groove; a reinforced sealing ring 4 is added between the inner wall of the installation groove 13 and the sealing gasket 5 to further improve the sealing effect at the second flow hole 3.

[0028] In the description of the present utility model, it needs to be understood that the directions or positional relationships indicated by directional words such as "front, back, up, down, left, right", "lateral, vertical, perpendicular, horizontal" and "top, bottom" are usually based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description. Unless otherwise specified, these directional words do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction or be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present utility model; the directional words "inside and outside" refer to the inside and outside relative to the contours of each component itself.
[0029] For ease of description, spatially relative terms such as "above", "above", "on the upper surface of", "above", etc. may be used here to describe the spatial positional relationship between a device or feature and other devices or features as shown in the figure. It should be understood that spatially relative terms are intended to include different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientation described in the figure. For example, if the device in the accompanying drawings is inverted, the device described as "above other devices or structures" or "above other devices or structures" will be positioned as "below other devices or structures" or "below other devices or structures". Thus, the exemplary term "above" may include both "above" and "below". The device may also be positioned in other different ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatially relative descriptions used here are interpreted accordingly.
[0030] In addition, it should be noted that the use of terms such as "first" and "second" to limit components is only for the convenience of distinguishing the corresponding components. If not otherwise stated, the above terms have no special meaning and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the utility model.

The principle and implementation mode of the present application are explained in detail by using specific examples in this article. The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the method of the present application and its core idea.
