Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of intelligent valves, in particular to a valve with integrated intelligent control. Background Art

[0002] A valve is used to be installed on a material supply pipeline system to open and close pipelines, control flow rates, and regulate and control the pipeline accessories of the conveyed medium. The materials in the supply system include water, oil, gas, etc. Simply put, it is a kind of switch.

[0003] Generally, for the opening and closing of pipeline material transportation and flow control by valves, almost all require third-party monitoring for intervention. For example, when the amount of water input into a water bucket reaches the target level, it is necessary for personnel to visually observe and then manually control the valve to close the water outlet end of the water supply system. In life and production, there are many scenarios where it is necessary to keep the amount of materials in liquid storage equipment and facilities such as water tanks and buckets in a relatively stable state. For example, in the assisted bathing area of a bathroom, the assisted bathing personnel will place a water bucket aside to ensure there is always water available. Since there is a certain time interval between each use of water, they will choose to keep the faucet always open and continuously replenish water into the bucket. Since the time points of each water use are uncertain, sometimes water is supplied for a long time without attention, and too much water is replenished, causing waste. If the faucet is set to be normally closed to save water and replenished when in use, it will delay time and affect work efficiency. Similar to the above scenarios, there are many demands in life and production for keeping the liquid in a container at a relatively stable amount, and conventional valves cannot meet this demand. Therefore, a valve with integrated intelligent control is needed. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] I. Technical Problems to be Solved

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is that in production and life, some containers temporarily store liquid materials, and frequent use and replenishment are required.

At one end of the valve rod away from the valve core, a support part is connected. The top end of the support rod one is rotatably connected with the support part. Below the support rod, a liquid level sensing mechanism that cooperates with the valve rod is connected and provided.

[0009] Further, the liquid level sensing mechanism includes a driven block. The driven block is connected to the bottom end of the support rod one. On both sides of the driven block, support shafts two are connected and provided. On the support shafts, driving blocks are rotatably connected. On both sides of the driven block and on one side of the driving block close to the driven block, concave-convex discs are connected and provided.

[0010] Further, an installation frame is commonly connected between the driving blocks. The top end of the support rod two is connected to the installation frame, which is convenient for the disassembly of the support rod two and the floating ball from the liquid level sensing mechanism.

[0011] Further, a water delivery pipe is commonly connected between the main water pipe and the valve body. The water delivery pipe is used to drain the water in the main water pipe into the drain pipe. Inside the water delivery pipe near the adjustment cavity, a limit groove that cooperates with the valve core is connected and provided.

[0012] Further, above one end of the bracket away from the main water pipe, a guardrail that cooperates with the valve rod is connected and provided. This is to prevent the finger from being squeezed and damaged when the finger touches the part where the valve rod is connected to the adjustment cavity. Therefore, a layer of isolation guardrail is added near the connection point to prevent the finger from touching the area near the connection point.

[0020] The following further details the present utility model with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] Embodiment 1

[0022] Combined with the attached Figures 1-3 , to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution provided by the present utility model is: A valve with integrated intelligent control and management, including a main water pipe 2, a drain pipe 7 is connected to the main water pipe 2, a water bucket 1 is connected below the drain pipe 7, a valve seat 4 is connected above the water bucket 1, an adjustment cavity 5 is connected inside the valve seat 4, the drain pipe 7 is located below the valve seat 4 and its top is communicated with the adjustment cavity 5, a valve rod 20 is slidably connected to one end of the valve seat 4 away from the main water pipe 2, one end of the valve rod 20 extends into the adjustment cavity 5 and is connected with a valve core 8 that cooperates with the drain pipe 7, the valve core 8 is in close fit with the adjustment cavity 5, a water delivery pipe 3 is jointly connected between the main water pipe 2 and the valve body, and the water delivery pipe 3 is used to divert the water in the main water pipe 2 into the drain pipe 7. A limit groove 6 that cooperates with the valve core 8 is connected inside one end of the water delivery pipe 3 close to the adjustment cavity 5. A bracket 11 is connected below the valve seat 4, and a guardrail 12 that cooperates with the valve rod 20 is connected above one end of the bracket 11 away from the main water pipe 2. This is to prevent fingers from being squeezed and damaged when touching the part where the valve rod 20 is connected to the adjustment cavity 5. Therefore, a layer of isolation guardrail 12 is added near this connection point to prevent fingers from touching the area near the connection point.

[0023] The water delivered by the main water pipe 2 is contained and received through the water bucket 1. Here, the main water pipe 2 represents the water supply system and related water supply pipes in this water - using area. The valve seat 4 with the valve stem 20 and the valve core 8 is located between the water delivery pipe 3 and the drain pipe 7, and is used to control the switch for the water in the main water pipe 2 to replenish the water bucket 1. The specific control process is that the valve core 8 moves in the adjustment cavity 5 under the pushing and pulling action of the valve stem 20. When the valve core 8 is located between the water delivery pipe 3 and the drain pipe 7, the water flow channel will be blocked, so that the water cannot flow through the drain pipe 7 into the water bucket 1. When the valve core 8 gradually leaves the limit groove 6 and moves towards the end far from the main water pipe 2, the gap exposed at the top of the drain pipe 7 will gradually increase, and then the water flow rate will also slowly increase, so as to reasonably control the amount of water replenished into the water bucket 1.

[0024] Embodiment Two

[0025] Combined with the attached Figures 1-4 Below the bracket 11, a first support shaft 10 is rotatably connected. A first support rod 9 is connected to the first support shaft 10. A support part 21 is connected to the end of the valve stem 20 far from the valve core 8. The top of the first support rod 9 is rotatably connected to the support part 21. A liquid level sensing mechanism matched with the valve stem 20 is connected below the support rod. The liquid level sensing mechanism includes a driven block 13. The driven block 13 is connected to the bottom end of the first support rod 9. Two second support shafts 14 are connected to both sides of the driven block 13. A driving block 15 is rotatably connected to the second support shafts. Concave - convex discs are connected to both sides of the driven block 13 and the side of the driving block 15 close to the driven block 13. The driving block 15 and the driven block 13 are engaged with each other through the concave - convex discs. A second support rod 18 is connected below the driving block 15. The bottom end of the second support rod 18 extends into the water bucket 1 and is connected with a floating ball 19. An installation frame 17 is commonly connected between the driving blocks 15. The top end of the second support rod 18 is connected to the installation frame 17, which is convenient for the disassembly of the second support rod 18 and the floating ball 19 from the liquid level sensing mechanism.

[0026] The floating ball 19 always floats on the water surface inside the water bucket 1. When the water volume in the water bucket 1 increases or decreases, the floating ball 19 will change its position in height. There is a transmission mechanism between the floating ball 19, the valve core 8 and the valve rod 20. It includes the second support rod 18 connected to the floating ball 19, and the first support rod 9 rotatably connected to the valve rod 20 and the bracket 11. Between the bottom end of the first support rod 9 and the top end of the second support rod 18, there is a driving component engaged with each other through concave and convex disks, that is, the driving block 15 and the driven block 13. When the floating ball 19 rises with the water surface, the second support rod 18 will tilt upward. Driven by the driving component with the concave platform disk 16, the first support rod 9 tilts upward. This action causes the valve rod 20, which is horizontally placed above, to move a corresponding distance in the direction of the main water pipe 2, so that the valve core 8 blocks the top end of the drain pipe 7 to a certain extent, thereby reducing the water volume transported from the drain pipe 7 into the water bucket 1. Conversely, the water volume is increased, realizing the intelligent associated control of the water volume transported according to the water level height.

[0027] When the present utility model is specifically implemented and this valve device is used, only need to keep the water supply system in the area in good condition, and the intelligent control of the water volume of water-using equipment such as the water bucket 1 can be realized without too much manual intervention. When the water level in the water bucket 1 drops, the floating ball 19 floating on the water surface will also drop together. Since the liquid level sensing mechanism is installed and fixed on the bracket 11 through the first support shaft 10, except that the first support rod 9 can rotate, its position cannot move. Then the second support rod 18 will increase the inclination angle downward. Under the interaction of the driving block 15 and the driven block 13 with concave and convex disks, the upper first support rod 9 slowly tilts downward, thereby driving the valve rod 20 to move away from the main water pipe 2, and further enabling the valve core 8 to gradually make space in the area between the water supply pipe 3 and the drain pipe 7 for the water flow to pass through and replenish water into the water bucket 1. After the water is replenished, the water level in the water bucket 1 rises. Then, through the position change of the floating ball 19, the liquid level sensing mechanism runs in the reverse direction, and finally the valve core 8 blocks the drain pipe 7 again to stop the water supply, which can keep the water in the water bucket 1 in a stable water volume situation from a macroscopic perspective. No matter how much water the water bucket 1 uses, the water will be replenished back to the set amount in time.

[0028] The above describes the present utility model and its implementation manners. This description is not restrictive. What is shown in the drawings is only one of the implementation manners of the present utility model, and the actual structure is not limited thereto. All in all, if those of ordinary skill in the art are inspired by it and design similar structural manners and embodiments to this technical solution without creative work without departing from the creative purpose of the present utility model, they shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
