AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The piston guide contact surface of the existing piston type flow regulator valve is prone to welding defects such as air holes, slag inclusions and cracks. After surfacing, the welding surface has high hardness, difficult processing, and does not meet the requirements, resulting in increased friction force of the guide rail, which easily wears the piston, causing the valve to easily get stuck.

Method used

The copper strip is embedded in the groove at the bottom of the valve body. The piston cooperates with the copper strip through the piston guide surface. The copper strip is fixed by a hexagonal screw, replacing the traditional welding process. The copper strip is made of aluminum and bronze, which has good wear resistance and corrosion resistance, has a small coefficient of friction, and can be replaced after wear.

Benefits of technology

It reduces processing costs and process complexity, extends service life, improves the maintenance convenience of the valve, and can be replaced after wear of the copper bar, avoiding the valve jamming caused by the wear of the guide rail.
