Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wheel side valves, and more specifically, to an improved wheel side valve. Background Art
[0002] The central inflation and deflation system of the tires of a small car consists of a compressed air gas source, a control air circuit, a rotary sealing air chamber, a wheel side valve and corresponding pipelines to form a complete system, which is used to adjust the air pressure of the tires to meet the different requirements of different road surfaces for the air pressure of the vehicle tires. Among them, the wheel side valve is an important component in the central tire deflation system.
[0003] Currently, when the commonly used wheel side valve is in use, whether it is inflating or deflating, the air core needs to be squeezed to open the air hole. However, after long-term use, the air core is prone to elastic weakness due to long-term frequent squeezing, thereby reducing the sealing performance of the air intake position. At the same time, when the air outlet head has a sealing problem, the entire wheel side valve needs to be replaced, increasing the maintenance cost. For this reason, we have designed an improved wheel side valve to solve the above problems. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] Aiming at the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of the utility model is to provide an improved wheel side valve. The improved wheel side valve can adjust the elastic strength of the air core during use by setting an adjusting column, a squeezing head and a buffer sheet, so that after long-term use, the air core can still ensure the sealing performance of the air intake position when not admitting air. And by setting an air outlet joint and an installation groove, it can not only ensure the sealing performance of the air outlet position, but also facilitate the quick assembly and positioning of the air outlet head, and at the same time facilitate the subsequent separate disassembly and replacement, reducing the maintenance cost.
[0005] To solve the above problems, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions.

By setting the adjustment column, the extrusion head and the buffer piece, the elastic strength of the air core can be adjusted during use, so that after long-term use, the air core can still ensure the sealing performance of the air inlet position when not admitting air. And by setting the air outlet joint and the installation groove, not only can the sealing performance of the air outlet position be ensured, but also the quick assembly and positioning of the air outlet head are convenient, and at the same time, it is convenient for later separate disassembly and replacement, reducing the maintenance cost.
[0007] Further, two clamping grooves are provided on the surface of the adjustment column, and a sealing sleeve and a sealing ring are respectively sleeved in the two clamping grooves. The surfaces of the sealing sleeve and the sealing ring are in contact with and pressed against the inner wall of the valve body. The sealing sleeve and the sealing ring are both made of extrusion-resistant sealing rubber. The sealing sleeve and the sealing ring can not only ensure the connection sealing performance of the adjustment column, but also prevent it from rotating randomly.
[0008] Further, a first groove is provided at one end of the air outlet joint, and a first sealing ring is sleeved inside the first groove. The surface of the first sealing ring is in contact with and pressed against the inner wall of the valve body. The first sealing ring can ensure the sealing performance of one end of the communication hole.
[0009] Further, a density pad is sleeved outside the air outlet head, and an anti-slip portion is provided at one end of the air outlet head. The cross-sectional shape of the anti-slip portion is polygonal. The anti-slip portion is convenient for a wrench to rotate and disassemble the air outlet head.
[0010] Further, a screw hole is provided at the central position of the nut, and an external thread matching the internal thread in the screw hole is provided on the surface of the adjustment column. A flat head is provided at one end of the adjustment column. The flat head is convenient for rotating the adjustment column with a flat-head screwdriver.
[0011] Further, a second groove is provided on the surface of the air outlet joint, and a second sealing ring is sleeved inside the second groove.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present utility model are as follows:
[0014] By providing the adjusting column, the extrusion head and the buffer sheet, the elastic strength of the air core can be adjusted during use, so that after the air core is used for a long time, the air inlet position can still be kept sealed when there is no air inlet.
[0015] By providing the air outlet joint and the installation groove, the present solution can not only ensure the sealing of the air outlet position, but also facilitate the quick assembly and positioning of the air outlet head, and at the same time facilitate the subsequent separate disassembly and replacement, reducing the maintenance cost.

Embodiment
[0024] Please refer to Figures 1-5 , an improved wheel-end valve, including a valve body 1. The valve body 1 is the wheel-end valve body, belonging to the existing technology, used for inflating and deflating vehicle tires. An air passage 11 is provided inside the valve body 1. One end of the air passage 11 is provided with an intake head 2, and the other end of the air passage 11 is provided with an outlet connector 5. One end of the intake head 2 is provided with an intake hole 21, and an air core 22 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the intake hole 21. The air core 22 is used to seal the intake hole 21 to prevent the air inside the vehicle tire from automatically exhausting, which belongs to the existing technology. One end of the air core 22 is provided with a buffer piece 23. The buffer piece 23 is made of spring steel metal sheet, and the buffer piece 23 has the function of compressive elasticity. One end of the buffer piece 23 contacts and presses an extrusion head 35. One end of the extrusion head 35 is fixedly connected to an adjustment column 3. The adjustment column 3 can squeeze the buffer piece 23 by changing its telescopic length, thereby increasing the elastic strength of the buffer piece 23. The surface of the adjustment column 3 is threadedly connected with a nut 32, and the bottom of the nut 32 is fixedly connected to the surface of the valve body 1. A communication hole 51 is provided at the center position of the outlet connector 5. A second groove 53 is provided on the surface of the outlet connector 5. A second sealing ring 55 is sleeved inside the second groove 53. The surface of the second sealing ring 55 contacts and presses against the inner wall of the installation groove 42, improving the sealing performance of the connection. One end of the outlet connector 5 is threadedly connected with an outlet head 4. One end of the outlet head 4 is provided with an air outlet hole 41. One end of the air outlet hole 41 communicates with an installation groove 42, and one end of the installation groove 42 is connected to one end of the communication hole 51.
[0025] Two clamping grooves are provided on the surface of the adjustment column 3. A sealing sleeve 33 and a sealing ring 34 are respectively sleeved in the two clamping grooves. The surfaces of the sealing sleeve 33 and the sealing ring 34 both contact and press against the inner wall of the valve body 1. The sealing sleeve 33 and the sealing ring 34 are both made of extrusion-resistant sealing rubber. The sealing sleeve 33 and the sealing ring 34 can not only ensure the connection sealing performance of the adjustment column 3, but also prevent it from rotating randomly. One end of the outlet connector 5 is provided with a first groove 52. A first sealing ring 54 is sleeved inside the first groove 52. The surface of the first sealing ring 54 contacts and presses against the inner wall of the valve body 1. The first sealing ring 54 can ensure the sealing performance of one end of the communication hole 51.
[0026] A density pad 43 is sleeved outside the outlet head 4. One end of the outlet head 4 is provided with an anti-slip portion 44. The cross-sectional shape of the anti-slip portion 44 is polygonal. The anti-slip portion 44 is convenient for the wrench to rotate and disassemble the outlet head 4. A screw hole is provided at the center position of the nut 32. The surface of the adjustment column 3 is provided with an external thread matching the internal thread in the screw hole. One end of the adjustment column 3 is provided with a slotted head 31. The slotted head 31 is convenient for rotating the adjustment column 3 with a flat-blade screwdriver.
[0027] When the improved wheel side valve needs to adjust the sealing effect of the air core 22, a flat screwdriver can be inserted into the flat slot 31 and the adjusting column 3 can be rotated clockwise. When the adjusting column 3 rotates clockwise, under the action of the thread of the nut 32, it moves downward, thereby driving the extrusion head 35 to squeeze the buffer piece 23 downward. The buffer piece 23 is squeezed and moves downward to squeeze the air core 22. The air core 22 moves downward and is squeezed against the inner wall of the air inlet hole 21 to improve the sealing effect. At the same time, the buffer piece 23 is squeezed downward and the bending is increased after being squeezed by the extrusion forces at both ends, thereby increasing the elastic strength of the buffer piece 23. When the air outlet head 4 needs to be replaced, it can be removed by rotating it counterclockwise with a wrench and then a new air outlet head 4 can be replaced. By providing the adjusting column 3, the extrusion head 35 and the buffer piece 23, the elastic strength of the air core 22 can be adjusted during use, so that after the air core 22 is used for a long time, the air inlet position can still be sealed when there is no air intake. And by providing the air outlet joint 5 and the installation groove 42, not only the sealing of the air outlet position can be ensured, but also the air outlet head 4 can be quickly assembled and positioned, and it is convenient for later separate disassembly and replacement, reducing the maintenance cost.
