Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of water flow sensor valves, and particularly relates to an anti-freezing crack valve body. Background Technique
[0002] After the existing water flow sensors are used in the market for a period of time, there will be individual water flow sensors with the bad situation of external cracking of the valve body. The reason is that there is a final drainage step in the process of normal use of the product, but individual users will choose to directly close and end the use, resulting in water accumulation remaining in the valve body of the water flow sensor inside the product. Under normal ambient temperature, it will not affect the normal use of the product. Once the ambient temperature drops, if the accumulated water inside the valve body is not drained in time, it will cause the accumulated water inside to freeze. After the internal accumulated water freezes, the volume expands, causing the valve body to expand and crack from the inside to the outside. When using the product again after the ambient temperature returns to normal, due to the cracking of the valve body of the internal water flow sensor, water seepage will occur at the cracking position. In serious cases of water seepage, it is easy to damage the electronic components inside the product, resulting in the product being unable to be used normally, seriously affecting the customer experience. For this reason, we have proposed an anti-freezing crack valve body. Content of the Utility Model
[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an anti-freezing crack valve body, which has the advantage of improving the anti-freezing effect of the valve body, and solves the problem that the valve body expands and cracks from the inside to the outside due to the volume expansion of the internal accumulated water after freezing.

[0005] Preferably, the number of the rotor assembly reinforcing ribs is three groups, the shape of the rotor assembly reinforcing rib is arc-shaped, and one side of the rotor assembly reinforcing rib is fixedly connected to the mold joint line reinforcing rib.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0017] Please refer to Figures 1-3, An anti-freezing crack valve body, including a water flow sensor valve body 1. A mold joint strengthening rib 2 is fixedly connected to the surface of the water flow sensor valve body 1. On one side of the mold joint strengthening rib 2 and on the surface of the water flow sensor valve body 1, a rotor assembly strengthening rib 3 is fixedly connected. On the left side of the surface of the water flow sensor valve body 1, an inlet strengthening rib 4 is fixedly connected, and on the right side of the surface of the water flow sensor valve body 1, an outlet strengthening rib 5 is fixedly connected. On the premise of ensuring its basic functions, the surface structure of the water flow sensor valve body 1 is redesigned. The mold joint position where the valve body is prone to freezing and cracking is thickened and reinforced. Multiple strengthening ribs are added to various parts of the outer surface of the valve body to prevent freezing and cracking. And during the injection molding production process of the valve body, by adjusting the ratio of the valve body injection molding raw material to glass fiber, the toughness strength of the valve body is increased, the risk of the valve body freezing and cracking is reduced, the toughness strength of the valve body is greatly enhanced, the probability of the valve body freezing and cracking in a low-temperature environment is better reduced, the service life of the water flow sensor is increased, the quality risk is reduced, and the user experience is improved.
[0018] The number of the rotor assembly strengthening ribs 3 is three groups. The shape of the rotor assembly strengthening ribs 3 is arc-shaped, and one side of the rotor assembly strengthening ribs 3 is fixedly connected to the mold joint strengthening rib 2.
[0019] Through the above technical solution, by setting the rotor assembly strengthening rib 3, the rotor assembly strengthening rib 3 is a strengthening rib for the installation position of the rotor assembly, and can protect the valve body from the influence of accumulated water freezing.
[0020] On both sides of the top and both sides of the bottom of the water flow sensor valve body 1, connection seats 6 are fixedly connected. The connection seats 6 are L-shaped.
[0021] Through the above technical solution, by setting the connection seats 6, it can be used for installing the valve body.
[0022] The top of the water flow sensor valve body 1 is fixedly connected with a mounting seat 7, and mounting holes 8 are opened on both sides of the top of the mounting seat 7.
[0023] Through the above technical solution, by setting the mounting seat 7 and the mounting holes 8, it can be used for connecting external devices to achieve the effect of convenient installation.
[0024] On both sides of the top of the water flow sensor valve body 1, limit clamping blocks 9 are fixedly connected. The limit clamping blocks 9 are symmetrically arranged.
[0025] Through the above technical solution, by setting the limit clamping blocks 9, the installation positions of the inlet end and the outlet end can be limited.
[0026] On the right side of the top of the water flow sensor valve body 1, an indicating arrow 10 is fixedly connected.
[0027] Through the above technical solution, by setting the indicating arrow 10, it can be used to indicate the inlet end and the outlet end.
[0028] During use, when accumulated water that has not been drained remains inside the redesigned anti-freezing and cracking valve body and the environmental temperature drops to the freezing point, the accumulated water freezes. The mold joint reinforcing rib 2 first ensures that the weakest mold joint position is not cracked when the accumulated water begins to freeze. After the accumulated water completely freezes, the rotor assembly reinforcing rib 3 protects the valve body from the influence of the frozen accumulated water. The water inlet reinforcing rib 4 and the water outlet reinforcing rib 5 play an auxiliary role to prevent the water inlet and outlet ends from cracking due to the influence of the frozen accumulated water. During the injection molding production process of the valve body, the ratio of the injection molding raw material to the glass fiber is adjusted to increase the toughness of the valve body and also reduce the influence of the frozen accumulated water on the valve body. By adding reinforcing ribs on the surface of the valve body and adjusting the ratio of the injection molding raw material of the valve body to the glass fiber, the risk of the valve body cracking in a low-temperature environment is reduced.
