Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of valves, and in particular relates to a piston type pressure reducing valve. Background Art
[0002] The pilot-operated piston-type gas pressure reducing valve consists of a main valve and a pilot valve. The main valve is primarily composed of the valve seat, main valve disc, piston, cylinder sleeve, and spring. The pilot valve is primarily composed of the valve seat, valve disc, diaphragm, spring, and adjustment spring. The outlet pressure is set by adjusting the adjustment spring pressure, and the diaphragm senses outlet pressure changes. The pilot valve opens and closes, driving the piston to adjust the flow area of the main valve's throttling section, achieving pressure reduction and stabilization.
[0003] In the prior art, Chinese patent publication number CN207989841U discloses a pilot piston pressure reducing valve, which includes a valve body and a piston disposed in the valve body. Due to impurities in the medium, the impurities will accumulate on the piston during long-term use of the pressure reducing valve, causing the piston to be stuck and causing the pressure reducing valve to malfunction.
[0004] In addition, since the main valve disc adopts a chamfered structure, a chamfered seal is achieved between the main valve seat and the valve when the valve stem is driven; during long-term use, the wear between the main valve disc and the main valve seat of the chamfered structure can easily cause the sealing effect between the main valve disc and the main valve seat to decrease, and lose the sealing function.

The filter is installed in a reasonable position, which can improve the efficiency of disassembly and replacement. The filter can be disassembled, replaced and cleaned by opening the plug without disassembling the pressure reducing valve. The main valve disc changes the conventional chamfered sealing structure to a flat sealing structure design, realizing a flat seal with the main valve seat, and increasing the flat wear resistance of the main valve disc.
