DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0021] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0022] Referring to Figures 1 - 4 , an embodiment provided by the present invention: a two-way fuel tank valve, including two outer shells 1, a communication pipe 101 is fixedly connected to the outer shell 1, a connection flange 103 is fixedly connected to the outer side surface of the outer shell 1, and the two connection flanges 103 are connected to each other through fasteners 102. There are multiple fasteners 102 and they are evenly arranged in a circumferential manner. The fasteners 102 include bolts and nuts. A filling block 2 is arranged inside the outer shell 1. A support frame 201 is fixedly connected to the side surface of the filling block 2. The support frame 201 is engaged with the outer shell 1. There is a card slot inside the outer shell 1. The shape of the support frame 201 is circular. A plurality of valve core components 3 are arranged on the filling block 2. The plurality of valve core components 3 are evenly arranged in a circumferential manner. The plurality of valve core components 3 are installed in a positive and negative direction.
[0023] Refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , the two outer shells 1 can be connected together by using the fasteners 102. The filling block 2 is used to block the flow of gas so that the gas can flow to the valve core component 3. The support frame 201 can improve the sealing performance of the connection between the two outer shells 1.
[0024] The valve core component 3 includes an installation shell 308. The shape of the installation shell 308 is tubular and is the same height as the filling block 2. A lower block 305 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the installation shell 308. A filter cylinder 304 is arranged inside the installation shell 308. The shape of the filter cylinder 304 is cylindrical. An upper block 303 is arranged above the filter cylinder 304 inside the installation shell 308. The upper block 303 and the lower block 305 are both provided with air holes 3031 and installation holes 3032. A blocking elastic cover 301 is arranged on the upper block 303. The shape of the blocking elastic cover 301 is conical. The blocking elastic cover 301 covers all the air holes 3031. A connection screw 302 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the blocking elastic cover 301. The connection screw 302 passes through the upper block 303, the filter cylinder 304, and the lower block 305. A nut 306 is threadedly connected to the end of the connection screw 302. The nut 306 is located below the lower block 305. A locking metal bar 307 is arranged at the end of the connection screw 302 and below the nut 306.
[0025] Refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4, external gas can enter through the air holes 3031 of the lower baffle 305, and then, under the filtering action of the filter cartridge 304, impurities in the gas can be filtered to prevent the air holes 3031 of the upper baffle 303 from being blocked, ensuring that the blocking elastic cover 301 can be opened and closed normally. When the air pressure at the bottom of the blocking elastic cover 301 is greater than that at the top of the blocking elastic cover 301, the edge of the blocking elastic cover 301 can tilt upward, thereby releasing the gas. Since the valve core assembly 3 is installed in both forward and reverse directions, the air pressure on both sides can be balanced, achieving a balancing effect and ensuring the normal use of the two-way valve, which is convenient to use.
[0026] During operation, the two outer shells 1 can be connected together using the fastener 102. The filling block 2 is used to block the flow of gas, enabling the gas to flow to the valve core assembly 3. The support frame 201 can improve the sealing performance of the connection between the two outer shells 1. External gas can enter through the air holes 3031 of the lower baffle 305, and then, under the filtering action of the filter cartridge 304, impurities in the gas can be filtered to prevent the air holes 3031 of the upper baffle 303 from being blocked, ensuring that the blocking elastic cover 301 can be opened and closed normally. When the air pressure at the bottom of the blocking elastic cover 301 is greater than that at the top of the blocking elastic cover 301, the edge of the blocking elastic cover 301 can tilt upward, thereby releasing the gas. Since the valve core assembly 3 is installed in both forward and reverse directions, the air pressure on both sides can be balanced, achieving a balancing effect and ensuring the normal use of the two-way valve, which is convenient to use. Also, by using the nut 306, the blocking elastic cover 301 and the connecting screw 302 can be removed, enabling the filter cartridge 304 to be taken out, thus facilitating the replacement of the filter cartridge 304 and the subsequent maintenance operations. By setting the valve core assembly 3, while balancing the pressure inside and outside, the filter cartridge 304 can also be used to filter impurities in the gas, preventing the air holes 3031 from being blocked and ensuring the normal use of the two-way valve, which is convenient to use.
[0027] Working principle: The two outer shells 1 can be connected together using the fastener 102. The filling block 2 is used to block the flow of gas so that the gas can flow to the valve core assembly 3. The support frame 201 can improve the sealing performance of the connection between the two outer shells 1. External gas can enter through the air holes 3031 of the lower baffle 305, and then, under the filtering action of the filter cartridge 304, impurities in the gas can be filtered to prevent the air holes 3031 of the upper baffle 303 from being blocked, ensuring that the blocking elastic cover 301 can be opened and closed normally. When the air pressure at the bottom of the blocking elastic cover 301 is greater than that at the top of the blocking elastic cover 301, the edge of the blocking elastic cover 301 can tilt upward, thereby releasing the gas. Since the valve core assembly 3 is installed in both forward and reverse directions, the air pressure on both sides can be balanced, achieving a balancing effect and ensuring the normal use of the two-way valve, which is convenient to use. Moreover, by using the nut 306, the blocking elastic cover 301 and the connecting screw 302 can be removed, and then the filter cartridge 304 can be taken out, facilitating the replacement of the filter cartridge 304 and the subsequent maintenance operations.
[0028] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
