Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electronic expansion valves, in particular to a valve seat assembly of an electronic expansion valve. Background Art
[0002] An electronic expansion valve is a device used to control the flow of refrigerant, usually used in refrigeration and air-conditioning systems. Moreover, the electronic expansion valve is superior to traditional throttling mechanisms in terms of superheat control (liquid level control) and flow regulation, has a faster response speed, a wider adjustment range, and more significant energy-saving effects, and has broad application prospects.
[0003] Existing electronic expansion valves, such as those disclosed in the utility model patent with the publication number CN211175434U and an electronic expansion valve disclosed in the utility model patent with the publication number CN220622762U, etc., can all achieve the adjustment of fluid flow.
[0004] However, the valve body structure of existing electronic expansion valves is relatively complex, which is not convenient for production and assembly, and it is not convenient to achieve a good sealing effect with a simple structure. Moreover, the valve body of existing electronic expansion valves is not convenient for guiding the valve needle assembly inside the electronic expansion valve, resulting in poor practicability. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a valve seat assembly of an electronic expansion valve to improve the above problems. Summary of the Utility Model
[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a valve seat assembly of an electronic expansion valve that uses a simple structure of the valve seat assembly in cooperation with a seal to convey fluid. While ensuring the stable conveyance of fluid, the assembly difficulty of the valve body assembly is reduced, thereby facilitating the lightweight of the electronic expansion valve and reducing production costs.
[0006] A valve seat assembly of an electronic expansion valve of the utility model includes a seal; it also includes a valve seat assembly, and the seal is installed inside the valve seat assembly;
[0007] The valve seat assembly guides the valve needle assembly inside the electronic expansion valve, and the seal seals the inside of the valve seat assembly;
[0008] By using a simple structure of the valve seat assembly in cooperation with a seal to convey fluid, while ensuring the stable conveyance of fluid, the assembly difficulty of the valve body assembly is reduced, thereby facilitating the lightweight of the electronic expansion valve and reducing production costs.
[0009] Preferably, the valve seat assembly includes a valve seat and a valve base. The valve base is inserted into the bottom of the valve seat, and an inlet and an outlet are provided at the bottom of the valve base. The fluid passes through the inlet and the outlet of the valve base, and at the same time, the valve seat and the valve base cooperate to guide the valve needle assembly of the electronic expansion valve, so that the valve needle assembly adjusts the flow rate in the valve base, thereby improving the stability of the electronic expansion valve.
[0010] Preferably, a stop end face is provided inside the valve seat, and a groove is provided at the top inside the valve base. The seal is placed in the groove of the valve base, and then the top of the valve base is inserted into the bottom of the valve seat. The stop end face in the valve seat cooperates with the groove in the valve base to limit the seal, and at the same time, the seal seals the joint between the valve seat and the valve base, thereby improving the sealing effect of the valve seat and the valve base.
[0011] Preferably, a guiding section is provided inside the valve base. The valve needle assembly of the electronic expansion valve adjusts the flow rate in the valve base, and at the same time, the guiding section inside the valve base guides the valve needle assembly of the electronic expansion valve, thereby improving the stability during flow rate adjustment.
[0012] Preferably, the top of the valve base is press-fitted into the bottom of the valve seat, and the valve seat and the valve base are welded together, thereby improving the stability of the valve seat and the valve base.
[0013] Preferably, the seal includes an O-ring, and the O-ring is located in the groove of the valve base. The O-ring seals the gap between the valve seat and the valve base, and the valve base seals the gap between the valve base and the valve needle assembly, thereby improving the sealing effect of the electronic expansion valve.
[0014] Preferably, limiting grooves are provided on the outer surfaces of both the valve seat and the valve base, which facilitates the installation of a sealing ring on the outer surfaces of the valve seat and the valve base. After the valve seat and the valve base are installed on the pipeline, the sealing effect between the valve seat, the valve base and the pipeline is improved.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:
[0016] 1. The integrated design of the valve seat and the valve base improves the strength of the valve seat and the valve base, simplifies the assembly process, and facilitates assembly.
[0017] 2. The installation accuracy is improved by means of press-fit installation and welding.
[0018] 3. The O-ring seals the gap between the valve seat and the valve base to ensure the sealing effect of the valve seat and the valve base.
[0019] 4. The structure has a high integration degree, fewer parts, fewer welding parts, more convenient assembly, and is beneficial to lightweight and cost reduction. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
