Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of check valves, and particularly relates to a compact diaphragm spring check valve. Background Art
[0002] Check valves are widely used in products such as machinery, pipelines, aviation, and vehicles. Especially, a small improvement can bring huge economic benefits due to their large usage quantity, and they are used to control the on-off of pipelines.
[0003] The existing check valve with the publication number CN201795107U and the name of "a check valve" includes a valve body and a valve cover. A valve core is arranged in the space formed by the valve body and the valve cover. The valve body is of a tubular structure. One end of the valve body extends inwards to form a valve bottom with a central hole, and the other end is provided with an annular inner flange for fitting and connecting the valve cover. This kind of check valve realizes the function of the check valve most simply. The overall structure of the valve is all thin-walled, simple in overall structure, and lightweight in weight. In particular, the valve body, the valve cover, and the valve core are all made of plastic material. Through the simple connection structure of the tubular valve body, the valve cover, and the valve core, the lightweight and low-cost manufacturing are realized.
[0004] However, the above-mentioned conventional check valve is driven by a helical spring. When the valve is opened, the spring is compressed, and when the valve is closed, the spring resets. This kind of check valve has a large axial space along the spring and cannot be used in occasions with limited axial space. In addition, the stroke of the valve is large and difficult to control, which also leads to slow response of this kind of check valve and is not suitable for occasions with high requirements for control accuracy. Content of the Utility Model
[0005] The utility model solves the problems in the related art and provides a compact diaphragm spring check valve.
[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the utility model is realized through the following technical solutions: A compact diaphragm spring check valve includes a first valve seat, a sealing ball, a diaphragm spring, and a second valve seat. The second valve seat is arranged below the first valve seat. A conical groove hole is opened on one end face of the first valve seat close to the second valve seat. A sealing ball is installed in the conical groove hole of the second valve seat. A first boss is opened on the end face of the second valve seat close to the first valve seat, and a second boss is opened downward on the first boss. A third boss is opened downward on the second boss, and a fourth boss is opened downward on the third boss. A diaphragm spring is horizontally arranged in the second valve seat. The outer end face of the diaphragm spring abuts against the third boss. A third inner hole is vertically penetrated through the middle of the diaphragm spring, and the third inner hole abuts against the sealing ball. A discharge hole is vertically penetrated through the center of the second valve seat.
[0007] As a preferred solution, a first inner hole is vertically opened at one end of the conical groove hole of the first valve seat away from the second valve seat, and a second inner hole is vertically opened at one end of the first inner hole away from the second valve seat.
[0008] As a preferred solution, a peripheral boss is provided at one end of the outer part of the first valve seat close to the first valve seat.
[0009] As a preferred solution, an annular groove is formed on one end face of the first valve seat close to the second valve seat, and a flexible ring cylinder is vertically fixed inside the annular groove, and the flexible ring cylinder is deformed and pressed against the sealing ball.
[0010] As a preferred solution, a plurality of protrusions are vertically and uniformly fixed on the inner wall of the conical groove hole, and the plurality of protrusions limit and install the sealing ball in the conical groove hole.
[0011] As a preferred solution, a plurality of spiral cantilevers are uniformly arranged on the diaphragm spring, and an extrusion clamping edge is fixed on the outer edge of the plurality of spiral cantilevers.
[0012] As a preferred solution, a plurality of buckles are uniformly fixed on the circumferential surface of the first boss, and the plurality of buckles are clamped on the peripheral boss.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: In the use of the present utility model, the sealing ball and the diaphragm spring are installed together between the first valve seat and the second valve seat, and the diaphragm spring is installed below the sealing ball. Since the place where the third inner hole of the diaphragm spring contacts the sealing ball is below the third boss of the second valve seat, the diaphragm spring can be resisted so that its edge portion abuts against the second platform of the second valve seat; at the same time, the spiral cantilevers of the diaphragm spring are elastically deformed to provide an initial force for the sealing ball, so that the sealing ball is in closer contact with the conical groove hole of the first valve seat to reach the initial state, and the sealing ball blocks the bottom end of the second inner hole of the first valve seat. When there is high pressure on the inlet side and the inlet side pressure is greater than the outlet side pressure, under the action of the pressure difference, the medium passes through the inner hole of the first valve seat to push the sealing ball open. At this time, the deformation amount of the diaphragm spring increases, and the one-way valve opens, and the medium flows to the one-way valve outlet. When the high pressure on the inlet side disappears and the inlet side pressure is close to or less than the outlet side pressure, the sealing ball is pushed back to the initial position under the action of the elastic force of the diaphragm spring and the pressure difference. At this time, the deformation amount of the diaphragm spring decreases until the initial state, and the one-way valve closes, and the flow of the medium to the one-way valve outlet stops. The design of using the diaphragm spring to achieve one-way sealing is adopted. The deformation amount of the diaphragm spring is limited, and the opening of the diaphragm spring with a short deformation amount and its achieved fast response speed, the cooperation of the diaphragm spring and the sealing ball greatly shortens the action stroke of the one-way valve, greatly improves the response speed of the valve opening and closing, is suitable for occasions with high requirements for control accuracy, and the shortening of the stroke also makes the axial dimension of the one-way valve of this valve shorter, is suitable for occasions with limited axial space, greatly compresses the axial length, is suitable for occasions with limited axial space. At the same time, the full stroke of the opening and closing of the one-way valve with this structure is only 1 / 4 to 1 / 3 of its nominal diameter, the stroke is greatly shortened, and it can be quickly opened and closed, which is suitable for occasions with high requirements for control accuracy.

[0027] AsFigures 1 to 6 As shown, a compact diaphragm spring one-way valve comprises a first valve seat 1, a sealing ball 2, a diaphragm spring 3 and a second valve seat 4. The second valve seat 4 is arranged below the first valve seat 1. A conical slot 13 is provided on one end surface of the first valve seat 1 close to the second valve seat 4. The sealing ball 2 is installed in the conical slot 13 of the second valve seat 4. A first boss 41 is provided on the end surface of the second valve seat 4 close to the first valve seat 1, and a second boss 43 is provided downward on the first boss 41. A second boss 43 is provided downward on the second boss 43. The second valve seat 4 has three bosses 44, and a fourth boss 45 is downwardly opened on the third boss 44. A diaphragm spring 3 is horizontally arranged in the second valve seat 4, and the outer end surface of the diaphragm spring 3 is pressed against the third boss 44. A third inner hole 33 is penetrated through the middle of the diaphragm spring 3, and the third inner hole 33 is set to press against the sealing ball 2. A discharge hole 46 is vertically penetrated through the center of the second valve seat 4. In use, the sealing ball 2 and the diaphragm spring 3 are installed together between the first valve seat 1 and the second valve seat 4, and the diaphragm spring 3 is installed below the sealing ball 2. Since the place where the third inner hole 33 of the diaphragm spring 3 contacts the sealing ball 2 is below the third boss 44 of the second valve seat 4, the diaphragm spring 3 can be The first valve seat 1 is pressed against the diaphragm spring 3, so that its edge part 31 is pressed against the second platform 44 of the second valve seat 4; at the same time, the diaphragm spring spiral cantilever 32 is elastically deformed to provide an initial force to the sealing ball 3, so that the sealing ball 3 and the conical groove hole 13 of the first valve seat 1 are in closer contact and reach the initial state. The sealing ball 3 blocks the bottom end of the second inner hole 12 of the first valve seat 1. When high pressure appears on the inlet side and the inlet pressure is greater than the outlet pressure, the medium pushes the sealing ball 3 through the inner hole 11 of the first valve seat 1 under the action of the pressure difference. At this time, the deformation of the diaphragm spring 3 increases, the one-way valve opens, and the medium flows to the one-way valve outlet. When the high pressure on the inlet side disappears and the inlet pressure is close to or less than the outlet pressure, the sealing ball 3 is pushed back to the initial position under the action of the elastic force of the diaphragm spring 3 and the pressure difference. At this time, the diaphragm The deformation of the spring 3 decreases until it reaches the initial state, the one-way valve is closed, and the flow of the medium to the one-way valve outlet stops. The diaphragm spring 3 is used to realize the one-way sealing design. The deformation of the diaphragm spring 3 is limited. The shorter the deformation of the diaphragm spring 3 is, the faster the response speed is achieved. The distance between the second boss 43 and the third boss 44 of the second valve seat 4 is small, generally between 0.2 and 1 mm. This distance can limit the maximum deformation of the diaphragm spring 3, and also limits the maximum stroke of the sealing ball 3, greatly compressing the axial length, and is suitable for occasions with limited axial space. At the same time, the full opening and closing stroke of the one-way valve of this structure is only 1 / 4 to 1 / 3 of its diameter, and the stroke is greatly shortened. It can be opened and closed quickly and is suitable for occasions with high control accuracy requirements.
[0028] like Figure 2 and Figure 3, a first inner hole 11 is vertically opened at one end of the conical groove hole 13 of the first valve seat 1 away from the second valve seat 4, and a second inner hole 12 is vertically opened at one end of the first inner hole 11 away from the second valve seat 4. During use, the first inner hole 11 and the second inner hole 12 on the first valve seat 1 are arranged in a through manner for guiding the flow of the medium in the later stage.
[0029] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 , an outer peripheral boss 16 is arranged at one end of the outer part of the first valve seat 1 close to the first valve seat 1. A plurality of buckles 42 are evenly fixed on the circumferential surface of the first boss 41, and the plurality of buckles 42 are clamped on the outer peripheral boss 16. Several buckles 42 are distributed on the first boss 41 of the second valve seat 4, and the buckles 42 are clamped onto the outer peripheral boss 16 of the first valve seat 1, completing the directional assembly of the one-way valve.
[0030] As Figure 3 , an annular groove 15 is opened on one end face of the first valve seat 1 close to the second valve seat 4, and a flexible ring cylinder 14 is vertically fixed inside the annular groove 15, and the flexible ring cylinder 14 is deformed and pressed against the sealing ball 2. The flexible ring cylinder 14 is made of rubber material. The flexible ring cylinder 14 is oppressed by the sealing ball 2, resulting in the deformation of the flexible ring cylinder 14, which is convenient for the sealing tightness between the sealing ball 2 and the end of the first inner hole 11 on the first boss 41.
[0031] As Figure 3 , a plurality of protrusions 17 are evenly and vertically fixed on the inner wall of the conical groove hole 13, and the plurality of protrusions 17 limit and install the sealing ball 2 in the conical groove hole 13. There are a certain number of protrusions 17 around the conical groove hole 13. The protrusions 17 limit and bear the sealing ball 14, and the protrusions 17 can play a guiding and constraining role for the sealing ball 14.
[0032] As Figure 2 and Figure 5 , a plurality of spiral cantilevers 32 are evenly arranged on the diaphragm spring 3, and an extrusion clamping edge 31 is fixed on the outer edge of the plurality of spiral cantilevers 32. The extrusion clamping edge 31 is fixed on the outer edge of the plurality of spiral cantilevers 32 of the diaphragm spring 3. The extrusion clamping edge 31 presses to deform the plurality of spiral cantilevers 32, which is convenient for ensuring the effectiveness of the deformation and pressing of the diaphragm spring 3.
[0033] In this embodiment, the middle sealing ball 2 and the diaphragm spring 3 are installed together between the first valve seat 1 and the second valve seat 4. The diaphragm spring 3 is installed below the sealing ball 2. Since the place where the third inner hole 33 of the diaphragm spring 3 contacts the sealing ball 2 is below the third boss 44 of the second valve seat 4, the diaphragm spring 3 can be resisted so that its edge portion 31 abuts against the second platform 44 of the second valve seat 4. At the same time, the spiral cantilever 32 of the diaphragm spring is elastically deformed to provide an initial force for the sealing ball 3, so that the sealing ball 3 contacts the conical groove hole 13 of the first valve seat 1 more closely to reach the initial state. The sealing ball 3 blocks the bottom end of the second inner hole 12 of the first valve seat 1. Then, several buckles 42 are distributed on the first boss 41 of the second valve seat 4, and the buckles 42 are clamped to the peripheral boss 16 of the first valve seat 1, completing the directional assembly of the one-way valve. The medium is introduced from the second inner hole 12 of the first valve seat 1. When the medium pressure increases, the medium enters from the first inner hole 11, pushes the sealing ball 3 to squeeze the diaphragm spring 3 to deform downward, the sealing ball 3 slides out of the conical groove hole 13, the medium enters the second valve seat 4, and the medium is discharged through the discharge hole 46.
[0034] The above is the preferred embodiment of the present invention. Those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains can also make changes and modifications to the above embodiment. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the above specific embodiments, and any obvious improvements, substitutions or variations made by those skilled in the art on the basis of the present invention fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
