[0036] Specifically, the exhaust process of the manual exhaust valve: after operating the lever to rotate and tilt it, the lever drives the sealing disk to displace or tilt, so as to release the seal of the sealing disk on the inner end of the air outlet. The high-pressure gas in the air channel flows out from the inner end of the air outlet and forces the elastic gasket to deform outward. The high-pressure gas is discharged into the external atmosphere through the gap between the elastic gasket and the inner end wall of the air outlet.
[0037] The manual exhaust valve is in the closed state: after the operation of the lever is released, the valve core that stops on the sealing disk can drive the sealing disk to reset and fit against the outer end wall of the air outlet under the action of the first reset member to seal the inner end of the air outlet, ensuring that the gas in the air channel cannot be discharged from the air outlet; the elastic gasket is reset under the drive of the lever to seal the outer end of the air outlet.
[0038] 2. The basic working principle of the manual exhaust valve in this embodiment is as follows:
[0039] When exhausting, the lever is operated to rotate and tilt, which drives the sealing disc to move or tilt, so that the sealing disc opens the inner end of the gas outlet. At the same time, the sealing disc drives the valve core abutting on it to move axially along the gas channel. The push rod on the valve core extends out of the gas channel inlet and abuts on the plug, thereby driving the plug to open the gas channel inlet, so that the working chamber is connected with the gas channel, and the high-pressure gas in the high-pressure chamber flows into the gas channel and is discharged from the gas outlet. At this time, the gas channel is in an open state.
[0040] After the exhaust is completed, the operation on the shift rod is released, and the valve core is reset by axially moving toward the direction close to the gas outlet under the action of the first reset member, and drives the sealing disk to reset and fit against the outer end wall of the gas outlet to seal the inner end of the gas outlet; after the valve core is reset, the push rod is disengaged from the plug, and the plug is fit against the outer wall of the gas inlet under the action of the second reset member to seal the gas inlet. At this time, the gas channel is in a closed state. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
