[0024] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , a water flow control valve, comprising a valve body 1, wherein a water inlet channel 11 and a water outlet channel 13 are respectively arranged in the valve body 1, the water inlet channel 11 and the water outlet channel 13 are connected through a control channel 12, a valve core 34 is arranged in the control channel 12, an indicator rod 2 is arranged on the valve body 1, the indicator rod 2 extends into the water outlet channel 13, and scale lines are arranged on the indicator rod 2; further comprising a flow control mechanism 3 for adjusting the position of the valve core 34; and further comprising a floating indicator 4, the floating indicator 4 is slidably connected to the indicator rod 2, and under the buoyancy of the water outlet channel 13, the liquid level of the water outlet pipe is displayed.
[0025] By providing the valve body 1, when flow adjustment is required, first adjust the position of the indicator rod 2 through the scale lines, so that the indicator rod 2 moves on the water outlet channel 13 until it reaches the specified liquid level height, and then adjust the position of the valve core 34 through the flow control mechanism 3, thereby adjusting the liquid flow rate entering the water outlet channel 13. After the liquid enters the water outlet channel 13, buoyancy is provided for the floating indicator 4, so that the floating indicator 4 moves upward until it abuts against the bottom of the indicator rod 2, thereby making the liquid level in the water outlet pipe reach the set value, that is, the specified flow rate.
[0026] Further, the flow control mechanism 3 includes a valve stem 31 rotatably connected to the valve core 34, the valve stem 31 is threadedly connected to a valve cover 32, the valve cover 32 is detachably connected to the valve body 1, and the valve stem 31 is also rotatably connected to the valve body 1. A groove is arranged in the valve body 1, and a sealing ring 33 for sealing the valve stem 31 is installed in the groove. A valve port adapted to the valve core 34 is arranged in the control channel 12 in the valve body 1. Rotating the valve stem 31 can make the valve body 1 rise and fall, thereby adjusting the relative position between the valve stem 31 and the valve port to adjust the liquid flow rate flowing from the control channel 12 to the water outlet channel 13.
[0027] Further, the floating indicator 4 includes a sliding rod 41 slidably connected to the indicating rod 2, and a floating plate 42 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the sliding rod 41. The liquid in the water outlet channel 13 generates a buoyant force on the floating plate 42, so that the floating plate 42 moves upward along the indicating rod 2 until it abuts against the bottom of the indicating rod 2. When the staff observes that the sliding rod 41 no longer moves upward, it indicates that the upper end of the floating plate 42 abuts against the lower end of the indicating rod 2, that is, the liquid level of the water outlet pipe reaches the specified height.
[0028] Further, an indicating color is provided on the sliding rod 41. When the upper end of the floating plate 42 abuts against the lower end of the indicating rod 2, the part of the sliding rod 41 extending out of the indicating rod 2 exposes the indicating color. The indicating color can visually remind the operator that the upper end of the floating plate 42 abuts against the lower end of the indicating rod 2; the indicating color can be replaced with other patterns, shapes, etc. with reminders.
[0029] Further, a first arc-shaped plate 51 is fixedly arranged on the valve body 1, a guide rod 53 is slidably arranged on the first arc-shaped plate 51, a second arc-shaped plate 52 is fixedly arranged at one end of the guide rod 53, a baffle 54 is arranged at the other end, a spring 55 is arranged between the baffle 54 and the first arc-shaped plate 51, the spring 55 is inserted outside the guide rod 53, and a locking groove adapted to the indicating rod 2 is formed between the first arc-shaped plate 51 and the second arc-shaped plate 52. Pull the second arc-shaped plate 52 to expand the locking groove, so that the indicating rod 2 can be moved and adjusted to the desired liquid level height. After adjustment, release the second arc-shaped plate 52. Under the reset action of the spring 55, the first arc-shaped plate 51 and the second arc-shaped plate 52 fix the position of the indicating rod 2 by friction. Anti-slip pads can be arranged on the corresponding sides of the first arc-shaped plate 51 and the second arc-shaped plate 52 to improve stability.
[0030] Working principle: First, adjust the position of the indicating rod 2 through the scale line, so that the indicating rod 2 moves on the water outlet channel 13 until it moves to the specified liquid level height. Rotating the valve stem 31 can make the valve body 1 rise and fall, so as to adjust the relative position of the valve stem 31 and the valve orifice, so as to adjust the liquid flow rate flowing from the control channel 12 to the water outlet channel 13. The liquid in the water outlet channel 13 generates a buoyant force on the floating plate 42, so that the floating plate 42 moves upward along the indicating rod 2 until it abuts against the bottom of the indicating rod 2. The staff stops adjusting the valve stem 31 by observing the indicating color, so as to complete the precise adjustment of the liquid flow rate.
[0031] Only some exemplary embodiments of the present invention are described by way of illustration above. Undoubtedly, for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, the described embodiments can be modified in various different ways.
