Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of fire dampers, in particular to a flue fire check valve. Background Art
[0002] A flue check valve is an automatic valve that opens and closes automatically by the force generated by the flow of the medium in the pipeline. In kitchens using longitudinal public flues, a check valve is installed between the range hood outlet and the public flue to prevent high-temperature flue gas from being discharged into the public flue and entering other floors or high-temperature flue gas in the public flue from flowing back into the kitchen. However, existing flue check valves do not have fire protection functions. When a fire occurs, the fire will follow the smoke into the range hood outlet, push the blades on the check valve and spread into the public flue. If the fire is too large, it will spread to other floors and cause a large fire. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the specific technical solution of the present invention is as follows: a flue fire check valve, comprising a base and an outer cover mounted on the base for convenient docking with a pipeline, and a valve body arranged in the outer cover, the valve body being provided with a support body and a support seat, two blades for sealing the valve body being rotatably arranged between the support body and the support seat, two rocker arms being rotatably arranged on the support body, the two rocker arms being provided with fuses that can melt in a high temperature environment, an elastic member being provided between the rocker arms and the valve body, the elastic member always providing a pulling force to the rocker arms, when the flue temperature is normal, the two rocker arms are buckled together by the fuse to ensure that the rocker arms are not pulled apart, at this time, the rocker arms are between the two blades, when the flue temperature is too high, the fuse melts due to the high temperature, causing the rocker arms to lose their restraint, the two rocker arms being expanded to both sides of the valve body under the elastic pulling force of the elastic member, and as the elastic member slides and pulls the rocker arms apart, the rocker arms gradually press against the blades, and when the two rocker arms are rotated to the maximum opening angle, the two rocker arms press against the blades, thereby achieving the sealing of the valve body by the blades.
[0004] It is worth mentioning that when the flue temperature is too high, it refers to a temperature above 100°C, usually 150°C, while the temperature required for the fuse to melt is above 100°C, usually in the range of 150-280°C.
[0005] According to the above technical solution, the two blades are further provided with gears that mesh with each other. When the two blades rotate, the two gears mesh with each other to achieve synchronous opening and closing of the two blades. The gear structure drives the two blades to rotate and separate, so that the two blades are synchronized, ensuring that the two blades can move synchronously. Even if one of the elastic parts fails, the two blades can continue to operate normally under the pull of one of the elastic parts.
[0006] According to the above technical solution, the support body includes an outer support plate, a positioning plate is provided on the outer support plate, and a positioning groove is provided on the positioning plate which fits the outer shape of the rocker arm. When the two rocker arms are close to each other, the positioning plate will limit the rotation angle of the rocker arm. After the rocker arm is rotated into the positioning groove, it cannot be rotated. The positioning plate and the positioning groove limit the rotation angle of the rocker arm to prevent the two rocker arms from rotating excessively when they are close to each other, resulting in damage to the deformation tension of the elastic part and inability to accurately drive the two rocker arms to rotate apart. When the rocker arm is rotated into the positioning groove, it is also convenient for the installation of the fuse.
[0007] According to the above technical solution, an inner support plate is further provided on the outer support plate, a rotating shaft is rotatably provided between the support seat and the inner support plate, the blade is provided on the rotating shaft, and a limiting plate is provided on the support seat. When the blade drives the rotating shaft to rotate, one end of the rotating shaft conflicts with the limiting plate, and the other end of the rotating shaft conflicts with the outer support plate, thereby limiting the opening and closing position of the blade. The rotating shaft is pressed between the limiting plate and the outer support plate, and the blade will not deviate from the opening and closing position on the valve body when opening and closing.
[0008] According to the above technical solution, a magnet is further provided on the blade, and the valve body is made of an adsorbable material. The blade will be adsorbed on the valve body through the magnet. When smoke passes through the base, the smoke flow will push the blade to rotate open, allowing the valve body to discharge smoke smoothly. When no smoke passes through the base, the blade will reset and be adsorbed on the valve body to achieve sealing of the valve body.
[0009] According to the above technical solution, further, a sealing gasket is provided on the blade to seal the gap between the valve body and the blade.
[0010] According to the above technical solution, the rocker arm is further rotatably arranged on the outer support plate and the inner support plate, the elastic member can be set as a spring, a pull ring and a pulling member are provided on the spring, the pulling member is sleeved on the rocker arm and can slide between the rocker arm, a notch is opened on the valve body, the pull ring is set on the notch, when the fuse is blown, the spring pulls the rocker arm to rotate through the pulling member, and synchronously, the pulling member will slide on the rocker arm.
[0011] According to the above technical solution, a turn buckle is rotatably provided on the base, and a convex point is provided on the outer cover. After the base and the outer cover are aligned, the turn buckle is rotated to buckle over the convex point, so that the turn buckle can press the outer cover to achieve the assembly between the base and the outer cover.
[0012] According to the above technical solution, the gear is a first gear, and the inner support plate is provided with an inclined surface. When the first gear is provided on the blade, it is provided close to the inclined surface of the inner support plate so that the first gear avoids the valve body. When the blade rotates, with the cooperation of the two first gears, the two blades will separate or close synchronously.
[0013] According to the above technical solution, further, the gear is a second gear, and when the second gear is provided on the blade, it is located between the support seat and the limiting plate.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: through the provision of the rocker arm and the spring, after the fuse is melted, the tension of the spring can be used to quickly rotate the rocker arm to contact the blades, pressing the blades to block the valve body, thereby preventing smoke from pushing open the blades during a fire and preventing the fire from spreading to the common pipeline. In addition, the provided positioning plate and positioning groove can limit the rotation angle of the rocker arm to prevent the two rocker arms from rotating excessively to one side when close together, causing deformation and tension of the elastic member to be damaged. In the event of a fire, the elastic member cannot accurately pull the rocker arm to contact the blades, and mutually meshing gears are provided on both rotating shafts, so that the two blades can move synchronously to open or close, and even if one of the elastic members fails, the two blades can continue to operate normally under the pull of one of the elastic members.
