Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of temperature control valve disassembly, and specifically, to a disassembly tool for a temperature control valve. Background Art

[0002] When a wind turbine unit cleans its water-cooling system, it is necessary to replace the temperature control valve in the installation hole of the water-cooling distributor. The temperature control valve extends into the installation hole through a compression spring, and is fixed in the installation hole by the cover of the water-cooling distributor to prevent it from being ejected by the spring. The current disassembly steps are to use a circlip pliers to remove the cover, and then rely on the spring force behind the temperature control valve to make it pop out. However, due to the relatively precise size of the installation position of the temperature control valve, during the disassembly process, the temperature control valve may get stuck with the inner wall of the installation hole, making it impossible for the temperature control valve to pop out. It is difficult for maintenance personnel to apply force on the surface of this temperature control valve, and the disassembly is difficult, resulting in an increase in disassembly work, affecting work efficiency, and consuming the physical strength of maintenance personnel. Summary of the Utility Model

[0003] The purpose of the present disclosure is to provide a disassembly tool for a temperature control valve to at least partially solve the problems existing in the related art.

[0004] To achieve the above purpose, the present disclosure provides a disassembly tool for a temperature control valve. The temperature control valve is installed in a first installation hole of a water-cooling distributor, the outer wall of the temperature control valve is attached to the inner wall of the first installation hole, and a cylindrical cavity is formed by concave inward the end face of the temperature control valve close to the orifice of the first installation hole. The disassembly tool includes: a circlip pliers having a first jaw and a second jaw; and two inserts respectively installed on the first jaw and the second jaw. When the two inserts are attached to each other, they jointly form a cylindrical surface that matches the shape of the inner wall of the cylindrical cavity.

[0005] Optionally, the two inserts are respectively configured as semi-cylinders and have the same structure.

[0006] Optionally, the insert is formed with a weight-reducing structure.

[0007] Optionally, the weight-reducing structure includes grooves formed on the two end faces along the axial direction of the semi-cylinder.

[0008] Optionally, the two inserts are respectively provided with second installation holes for the first jaw or the second jaw to extend into and be fixed.

[0009] Optionally, the second installation hole is configured as a threaded hole, and the first jaw and the second jaw are respectively formed with external threads that cooperate with the threaded hole.

[0010] Optionally, when the two inserts are attached to each other, an avoidance hole coaxial with the cylindrical surface is formed, and the avoidance hole is used for the valve core of the temperature control valve to pass through.

[0011] Optionally, an anti-slip layer is provided on the cylindrical surface.

[0012] Optionally, the circlip pliers further include a first handle and a second handle. When the first handle and the second handle approach each other, the first jaw and the second jaw move away from each other; when the first handle and the second handle move away from each other, the first jaw and the second jaw approach each other.

[0013] Optionally, the circlip pliers further include a first connecting bar and a second connecting bar. The middle positions of the first connecting bar and the second connecting bar in the length direction are hinged to each other. The first handle and the first jaw are respectively arranged at the two ends of the first connecting bar in the length direction, and the second handle and the second jaw are respectively arranged at the two ends of the second connecting bar in the length direction.

[0014] Through the above technical solution, when disassembling the temperature control valve, if the temperature control valve is stuck with the inner wall of the first mounting hole and cannot pop out, the circlip pliers are used to control the two inserts to fit together and extend into the cylindrical cavity, and then the circlip pliers are used to control the two inserts to move away from each other to press against the inner wall of the cylindrical cavity, so that the circlip pliers can control the two inserts to drive the temperature control valve to rotate or move axially in the first mounting hole, so that the temperature control valve can be disengaged from the stuck position of the first mounting hole, thereby realizing popping out, which is time-saving, labor-saving, fast and convenient.

Specific embodiments

[0024] The following describes the specific embodiments of the present disclosure in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for the purpose of illustrating and explaining the present disclosure, and are not intended to limit the present disclosure.

[0025] In the present disclosure, unless otherwise stated, the orientation terms "inner" and "outer" are based on the own contour of the relevant components. For example, when two insert bodies are mutually attached, they jointly form a cylindrical surface that matches the shape of the "inner wall" of the cylindrical cavity. Here, the "inner wall" refers to the inner side wall of the accommodation space of the cylindrical cavity.

[0026] In addition, in the present disclosure, the terms "first", "second", etc. are used to distinguish one element from another, and do not have sequentiality and importance. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements.

[0027] Referring to Figures 1-5 , the present disclosure exemplarily shows a disassembly tool for a temperature control valve. The temperature control valve 1 is installed in the first mounting hole 21 of the water-cooled distributor 2. The outer wall of the temperature control valve 1 is in contact with the inner wall of the first mounting hole 21. The end face of the temperature control valve 1 near the orifice of the first mounting hole 21 is recessed to form a cylindrical cavity 11. The disassembly tool includes a circlip pliers 3 having a first jaw 31 and a second jaw 32, and two insert bodies 4 respectively installed on the first jaw 31 and the second jaw 32. Among them, when the two insert bodies 4 are mutually attached, they jointly form a cylindrical surface that matches the shape of the inner wall of the cylindrical cavity 11.

[0028] The present disclosure does not limit the specific structure of the circlip pliers 3, as long as it has a first jaw 31 and a second jaw 32 and can control the mutual attachment and mutual separation of the two insert bodies 4. Similarly, the present disclosure does not limit the structures of the first jaw 31 and the second jaw 32 and the connection manner with the two insert bodies 4.

[0029] The present disclosure does not limit the specific structure of the inserts 4, as long as when the two inserts 4 are fitted together, a cylindrical surface matching the inner wall shape of the cylindrical cavity 11 can be formed, so that the two inserts 4 can be inserted into the cylindrical cavity 11 by the circlip pliers 3. The cylindrical surface here refers to the outer contour of the common body formed when the two inserts 4 are fitted together, and this outer contour is a cylindrical surface. For example, the common body formed by their fitting can be a cylinder, a cylindrical ring, etc.

[0030] By using the above technical solution, when disassembling the temperature control valve 1, if the temperature control valve 1 gets stuck with the inner wall of the first mounting hole 21 and cannot be ejected, the circlip pliers 3 are used to control the two inserts 4 to fit together and extend into the cylindrical cavity 11, and then the circlip pliers 3 are used to control the two inserts 4 to move away from each other to press against the inner wall of the cylindrical cavity 11, so that the circlip pliers 3 can control the two inserts 4 to drive the temperature control valve 1 to rotate or move axially in the first mounting hole 21, so that the temperature control valve 1 can be disengaged from the stuck position of the first mounting hole 21, thereby realizing ejection, which is time-saving, labor-saving, fast and convenient.

[0031] Refer to Figure 2 In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the two inserts 4 can be respectively configured as semi-cylinders and have the same structure. Such a design can reduce the mold opening cost, procurement cost, assembly process difficulty, etc. of the inserts 4. It should be noted here that the semi-cylinder does not mean that its contour must meet the semi-cylinder in the geometric sense, but as long as its outer contour generally looks like a semi-cylinder, for example, it can have the grooves, second mounting holes, etc. mentioned below, as long as it has a semi-cylindrical surface matching the inner wall of the first mounting hole 21.

[0032] During production, the two inserts 4 can be separately manufactured, or they can also be directly manufactured as a cylinder matching the shape of the cylindrical cavity 11 and then cut into two semi-cylindrical structures. The present disclosure does not limit this.

[0033] In some other embodiments, the insert 4 can also be configured as a semi-circular ring, and when the two inserts 4 are fitted together, a cylindrical ring (hollow cylinder) can be obtained, and the outer contour of the cylindrical ring is configured as a cylindrical surface matching the inner wall of the cylindrical cavity 11.

[0034] In order to make the disassembly tool of the temperature control valve more lightweight and convenient to use, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the insert 4 can be formed with a weight reduction structure.

[0035] The present disclosure does not limit the weight reduction structure. For example, in Figure 2In the illustrated embodiment, the weight reduction structure may include grooves 41 formed on the two axial end faces of the semi-cylinder. The structure of the grooves may be semi-circular and adjacent to the other semi-cylinder, and the grooves 41 of the two semi-cylinders may jointly form a circular groove. In addition, in some other embodiments, the weight reduction structure may also be a through groove axially penetrating the semi-cylinder. In this case, when the two semi-cylinders are fitted together, they are configured as a cylindrical ring structure.

[0036] The present disclosure does not limit the formation method of the groove 41. For example, in some embodiments, it may be integrally cast with the insert 4 during manufacturing. In addition, in some other embodiments, it may also be formed by machining with mechanical equipment such as a lathe after the insert 4 is manufactured.

[0037] The present disclosure does not limit how the insert 4 is connected to the first jaw 31 and the second jaw 32. For example, in Figure 2 In the illustrated embodiment, the two inserts 4 may be respectively provided with second mounting holes 42 for the first jaw 31 or the second jaw 32 to extend into and be fixed. During installation, only need to extend the first jaw 31 and the second jaw 32 into the corresponding second mounting holes 42 respectively. The second mounting holes 42 need to have a certain depth to improve the stability of the cooperation between the first jaw 31 and the second jaw 32 and the insert 4.

[0038] The present disclosure does not limit the formation method of the second mounting holes 42. For example, in some embodiments, it may be integrally cast with the insert 4 during manufacturing. In addition, in some other embodiments, it may also be formed by machining with mechanical equipment such as a lathe after the insert 4 is manufactured.

[0039] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, in order to fix the first jaw 31 and the second jaw 32 in the second mounting holes 42, the first jaw 31 and the second jaw 32 may be configured such that the radius gradually decreases from the tail to the head. During installation, the smaller-diameter head first extends into the second mounting holes 42, and then the first jaw 31 and the second jaw 32 continue to move towards the inside of the second mounting holes 42 until the larger-diameter position of their tails is interference-fixed with the inner wall of the second mounting holes 42.

[0040] In addition, in some other embodiments, the second mounting holes 42 may be configured as threaded holes, and the first jaw 31 and the second jaw 32 may respectively be formed with external threads that cooperate with the threaded holes. During installation, only need to screw the two inserts 4 onto the corresponding first jaw 31 or second jaw 32.

[0041] By detachably connecting the insert 4 to the first jaw 31 and the second jaw 32, only the insert 4 can be replaced when the insert 4 is damaged. Or when it is necessary to disassemble different-sized temperature control valves, only different-sized inserts 4 can be replaced.

[0042] Referring to Figure 2 , in some embodiments, when the two inserts 4 are fitted to each other, an avoidance hole 43 coaxial with the cylindrical surface can be formed, and the avoidance hole 43 is used for the valve core 12 of the temperature control valve 1 to pass through. Thus, interference with the valve core 12 can be avoided when the insert 4 is inserted into the cylindrical cavity 11 of the temperature control valve 1.

[0043] The present disclosure places no restrictions on the material of the insert 4. For example, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the two inserts 4 can be made of plastic respectively. Plastic materials have low cost, light weight, and are conducive to processing. Especially when the first jaw 31 and the second jaw 32 need to be clamped in the second mounting hole 42 in an interference fit manner, the plastic material is more likely to achieve the interference fit effect.

[0044] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the cylindrical surface can be provided with an anti-slip layer. By providing the anti-slip layer, the friction between the insert 4 and the inner wall of the cylindrical cavity 11 can be increased, so that it is easier to control the movement of the temperature control valve 1 by the circlip pliers 3.

[0045] The present disclosure places no restrictions on the anti-slip layer. For example, it can be a rubber pad attached to the cylindrical surface. Or it can also improve the friction by providing a concavo-convex spot structure on the cylindrical surface.

[0046] Referring to Figures 1-2 、 Figure 5 , in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the circlip pliers 3 can further include a first handle 33 and a second handle 34. Among them, when the first handle 33 and the second handle 34 approach each other, the first jaw 31 and the second jaw 32 can move away from each other; when the first handle 33 and the second handle 34 move away from each other, the first jaw 31 and the second jaw 32 can approach each other. With such a design, by respectively installing the two inserts 4 on the first jaw 31 and the second jaw 32, the two inserts 4 can be controlled to approach or move away from each other through the first handle 33 and the second handle 34. In addition, in the present disclosure, the displacement relationship between the handle and the jaw is set to be opposite, so that when the first handle 33 and the second handle 34 are firmly held, the two inserts 4 can move away from each other to press against the inner wall of the cylindrical cavity 11. This "grasping" operation method is easier to exert force and is more convenient to operate.

[0047] Further, referring to Figures 1-2 、 Figure 5, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the circlip pliers 3 may further include a first connecting bar 35 and a second connecting bar 36. The middle positions of the first connecting bar 35 and the second connecting bar 36 in the length direction may be hinged to each other. The first handle 33 and the first jaw 31 are respectively arranged at both ends of the first connecting bar 35 in the length direction, and the second handle 34 and the second jaw 32 are respectively arranged at both ends of the second connecting bar 36 in the length direction. By means of the mutually hinged first connecting bar 35 and second connecting bar 36, the movement of the two jaws can be controlled by the two handles.

[0048] The preferred embodiments of the present disclosure have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present disclosure is not limited to the specific details in the above embodiments. Within the scope of the technical concept of the present disclosure, various simple modifications can be made to the technical solutions of the present disclosure, and these simple modifications all fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.

[0049] In addition, it should be noted that, among the various specific technical features described in the above specific embodiments, they can be combined in any appropriate manner without conflict. To avoid unnecessary repetition, the present disclosure will not separately describe various possible combination methods.

[0050] In addition, any combination can be made between various different embodiments of the present disclosure as long as it does not violate the idea of the present disclosure, and it should also be regarded as the content disclosed by the present disclosure.
