[0037] Embodiment

[0038] This embodiment provides a valve flap weight structure for a normally open axial flow check valve, as Figure 1 shown, including a weight block 1, an anti-rotation pin 2, and a spring seat 3. The weight block 1 is provided with a groove, and a pin hole is provided on the side wall of the groove; the weight block 1 is adapted to be sleeved on the tail of the guide rod 5 in the valve flap assembly through the groove, and a pin groove adapted to the pin hole is provided at the tail of the guide rod 5; the anti-rotation pin 2 is adapted to pass through the pin hole and the pin groove; the spring seat 3 is sleeved on the guide rod 5, and one end of the spring seat 3 close to the weight block 1 has a receiving cavity, and the receiving cavity is configured to cover the outer surface of the weight block 1 having the pin hole, and the anti-rotation pin 2 is located in the receiving cavity.

[0039] By providing a weight block 1 at the tail of the guide rod 5, it is used to adjust the center of gravity of the valve flap assembly to avoid the overall center of gravity of the valve flap 7 and the guide rod 5 moving forward when the valve is closed, resulting in a drooping phenomenon. By providing a groove on the weight block 1, when installing the weight block 1, the connection between the weight block 1 and the guide rod 5 is realized by sleeving the groove on the tail of the guide rod 5. At the same time, a pin hole is provided on the side wall of the groove, and a pin groove adapted to the pin hole is provided at the tail of the guide rod 5. When installing the weight block 1 on the tail of the guide rod 5, the pin hole on the side wall of the groove of the weight block 1 is aligned with the pin groove at the tail of the guide rod 5, and then the anti-rotation pin 2 is inserted into the pin hole and the pin groove to realize the fixed limit of the weight block 1 and the guide rod 5.

[0040] Further, by sleeving a spring seat 3 on the guide rod 5 and providing a receiving cavity at one end of the spring seat 3 close to the counterweight 1, after inserting the anti-rotation pin 2 into the pin hole and the pin slot, move the spring seat 3 until the receiving cavity of the spring seat 3 covers the outer surface of the counterweight 1 having the pin hole, and at the same time the anti-rotation pin 2 is in the receiving cavity, thereby preventing the anti-rotation pin 2 from disengaging from the pin hole and the pin slot.

[0041] In this embodiment, an axial limiting structure is provided between the counterweight 1 and the tail of the guide rod 5 to limit the axial movement of the counterweight 1 on the guide rod 5.

[0042] Specifically, the axial limiting structure is an internal thread provided on the inner wall of the groove of the counterweight 1 and an external thread provided on the outer surface of the tail of the guide rod 5.

[0043] By providing an internal thread on the inner wall of the groove of the counterweight 1 and an external thread on the outer surface of the tail of the guide rod 5, when installing the counterweight 1, connect the internal thread on the inner wall of the groove of the counterweight 1 with the external thread on the outer surface of the tail of the guide rod 5, and rotate the counterweight 1 until the pin hole on the side wall of the groove of the counterweight 1 is aligned with the pin slot at the tail of the guide rod 5. Through the thread fit between the counterweight 1 and the guide rod 5, the connection between the counterweight 1 and the guide rod 5 can be further strengthened to limit the axial movement of the counterweight 1 on the guide rod 5.

[0044] In this embodiment, the spring seat 3 is provided with a through hole, the spring seat 3 is sleeved on the guide rod 5 through the through hole, and the inner wall of the through hole is provided with a hole wall internal thread adapted to the external thread on the outer surface of the tail of the guide rod 5.

[0045] When installing the spring seat 3, align the through hole on the spring seat 3 with the guide rod 5, and by rotating the spring seat 3, connect the internal thread on the inner wall of the through hole on the spring seat 3 with the external thread on the outer surface of the tail of the guide rod 5. After inserting the anti-rotation pin 2 into the pin hole and the pin slot, rotate the spring seat 3 until the receiving cavity of the spring seat 3 covers the outer surface of the counterweight 1 having the pin hole.

[0046] In this embodiment, the valve flap counterweight structure of the normally open axial flow check valve further includes a biasing member 4, the biasing member 4 is provided between the spring seat 3 and the valve flap assembly, and the biasing member 4 has a biasing force that forces the receiving cavity in the spring seat 3 to be sleeved on the outer surface of the counterweight 1 having the pin hole.

[0047] By providing a biasing member 4 between the spring seat 3 and the valve flap assembly, the biasing member 4 can provide a biasing force for the spring seat 3, so that the spring seat 3 maintains its receiving cavity sleeved on the outer surface of the counterweight 1 having the pin hole.

[0048] Specifically, as Figure 1As shown, a stepped structure is provided at one end of the spring seat 3 close to the biasing member 4, and the biasing member 4 abuts against the stepped structure. In this embodiment, the biasing member 4 is a spring, the spring is sleeved on the guide rod 5, and one end of the spring abuts against the stepped structure.

[0049] In this embodiment, the valve flap assembly further includes a support frame 6 and a valve flap 7. The support frame 6 is connected to the valve body, and a guide hole is provided inside the support frame 6; the guide rod 5 is inserted into the guide hole of the support frame 6; the valve flap 7 is provided at the front end of the guide rod 5 and the two are of an integral structure; wherein, the biasing member 4 is arranged between the support frame 6 and the spring seat 3.

[0050] By providing the counterweight 1, the counterweight 1 causes the center of gravity of the whole formed by the valve flap 7, the guide rod 5 and the counterweight 1 to shift in the direction close to the counterweight 1, ensuring that during the opening and closing of the valve flap 7 of the axial flow check valve, the center of gravity of the whole formed by the valve flap 7, the guide rod 5 and the counterweight 1 always remains within the guide hole, avoiding the formation of a drooping phenomenon during the opening and closing of the valve flap 7, ensuring that the action during the opening and closing of the valve flap 7 is smoother, the response is more timely, and the sealing performance is more excellent.

[0051] As Figure 1 shown, a plurality of flow channel holes 8 are provided on the support frame 6, and the flow channel holes 8 are axially opened along the guide rod 5.

[0052] By providing a plurality of flow channel holes 8 on the support frame 6, which are set to three flow channel holes 8 in this embodiment, when the reverse flow medium flows in the valve body (the medium flows from left to right in Figure 1 the figure), the fluid pushes the valve flap 7 through the three flow channel holes 8, which can increase the reverse acting force of the fluid on the back of the valve flap 7 and is beneficial to the rapid closing of the valve flap 7.

[0053] Obviously, the above embodiments are only examples given clearly and are not limitations on the implementation manners. For those of ordinary skill in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made on the basis of the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all the implementation manners here. And the obvious changes or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of the present invention.
