Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of pressure relief valves, in particular to a pressure relief valve with a self-locking structure. Background Art
[0002] A pressure relief valve is a safety device used to protect a system from failure or danger caused by overpressure. When system pressure exceeds a preset limit, the valve automatically opens, releasing the excess pressure to the outside or a safe area, ensuring the system returns to normal operating pressure. It is widely used in high-pressure pipelines, boilers, storage tanks, and other equipment.
[0003] However, since the existing pressure relief valve has a pressure relief spring in a contracted state when it is subjected to fluid or gas pressure and is relieving pressure, when the pressure drops slightly, the pressure relief spring may reset prematurely, causing the valve seat to close prematurely, resulting in incomplete pressure relief. This situation can easily cause the pressure to rise again, increasing safety hazards. Therefore, the existing pressure relief valve needs to be improved. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of the present utility model is to provide a pressure relief valve with a self-locking structure to solve the problem raised in the above background technology that the pressure relief valves currently on the market may have a pressure relief spring that resets prematurely during pressure relief, causing the valve seat to close prematurely, resulting in incomplete pressure relief. This situation may easily cause the pressure to rise again, increasing safety hazards.
[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a pressure relief valve with a self-locking structure, comprising a valve body and a valve seat, a valve cover is provided above the valve body, a support plate is fixedly connected to one side of the valve cover, a diaphragm is provided between the valve body and the valve cover, a valve stem is slidably sleeved on the inner sides of the valve body, the valve seat is connected to one end of the valve stem close to the inside of the valve body, a disc is fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the valve stem, and locking mechanisms are connected on both sides of the disc.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0022] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0023] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 The utility model provides a technical solution: a pressure relief valve with a self-locking structure, comprising a valve body 1 and a valve seat 6, a valve cover 2 is provided above the valve body 1, a support plate 3 is fixedly connected to one side of the valve cover 2, a diaphragm 4 is provided between the valve body 1 and the valve cover 2, a valve stem 5 is slidably sleeved on the inner sides of the valve body 1, the valve seat 6 is connected to one end of the valve stem 5 close to the inside of the valve body 1, and a pressure relief spring 7 is sleeved on the outer side of the valve stem 5 close to the bottom of the disc 9.
[0024] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 , the outer side of the valve stem 5 is fixedly sleeved with a disc 9, and the two sides of the disc 9 are connected with a locking mechanism 8, one side of the locking mechanism 8 is connected to the support plate 3 and the valve cover 2, and the locking mechanism 8 includes a limit groove 801, a two-way electric push rod 802, a connecting plate 803, a telescopic rod 804, a return spring 805 and a limit block 806. The two sides of the disc 9 are provided with limit grooves 801 distributed at equal intervals, and the valve cover 2 slides through the two sides of the limit groove 801. There is a telescopic rod 804, and a return spring 805 is sleeved on the outer side of the telescopic rod 804. The end of the telescopic rod 804 close to the limit groove 801 is connected to the limit block 806. The outer side of the telescopic rod 804 is slidably sleeved with a connecting plate 803. The end of the connecting plate 803 away from the telescopic rod 804 is connected to a bidirectional electric push rod 802. The bidirectional electric push rod 802 is connected to the support plate 3. The cross-sectional shape of the limit block 806 and the limit groove 801 is trapezoidal.
[0025] In specific implementation, since the pressure relief valve is in a contracted state when it is subjected to the pressure of the fluid or gas and is relieving the pressure, the pressure relief spring 7 is in a contracted state. When the pressure drops slightly, the pressure relief spring 7 may reset prematurely, causing the valve seat 6 to close prematurely, resulting in incomplete pressure relief. This situation is likely to cause the pressure to rise again, increasing safety hazards. When the valve seat 6 pushes the valve stem 5 upward, and the valve stem 5 squeezes the pressure relief spring 7 again, the valve stem 5 will drive the disc 9 to move upward in the inner cavity of the valve cover 2, and the outer wall of the disc 9 squeezes the limit block 806, causing the limit block 806 to squeeze the telescopic rod 804 to one side, and the telescopic rod 804 drives the reset spring 805 to contract, and then one end of the telescopic rod 804 slides on the inner side of the connecting plate 803, and finally the reset spring 805 rebounds and drives the telescopic rod 80 4 pushes the limit block 806 to one side so that the limit block 806 is stuck in the limit groove 801, which can limit the position of the disc 9 and prevent the pressure relief spring 7 from resetting too early. When the pressure relief is completed, the two-way electric push rod 802 is started to push to both sides, so that the two-way electric push rod 802 drives the connecting plate 803 to move to both sides, and then the connecting plate 803 drives the telescopic rod 804 to move to both sides. Finally, the telescopic rod 804 drives the limit block 806 to disengage from the limit groove 801, and the pressure relief spring 7 rebounds and drives the valve stem 5 and the valve seat 6 to return to their original positions. Since the cross-sectional shape of the limit block 806 and the limit groove 801 is trapezoidal, and the inclined surface is located at the bottom, the valve seat 6 can be prevented from resetting too early without hindering the closing of the valve, thereby improving the safety of the pressure relief valve.
[0026] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4-Figure 6 The outer side of the valve cover 2 is movably connected with a docking ring 10, and a ring-shaped plug rod 13 is provided below the docking ring 10. The outer sides of the valve cover 2, the docking ring 10 and the valve body 1 are connected with a retaining ring 11, and limiting bolts 12 are installed at both ends of the retaining ring 11. The adjacent inner sides of the valve body 1 and the valve cover 2 are provided with ring-shaped plug holes.
[0027] In specific implementation, since the valve body 1 and the valve cover 2 of most pressure relief valves are usually connected by several bolts, when the internal pressure relief spring 7 needs to be replaced, it is necessary to remove several bolts, which is rather troublesome. The two limit bolts 12 can be directly removed, and then the retaining ring 11 can be pulled to both sides to separate the retaining ring 11 from the valve body 1 and the valve cover 2, and finally the docking ring 10 can be pulled upward to drive the plug rod 13 to separate from the socket. Then the valve cover 2 and the valve body 1 can be separated, which is convenient for replacement and maintenance of internal parts, thereby improving the convenience of the pressure relief valve and extending its service life.
[0028] Working principle: When using the pressure relief valve with a self-locking structure, first, when the pressure relief valve is releasing pressure, the gas or fluid squeezes the valve seat 6 upward, and the valve seat 6 then lifts the valve stem 5 upward, and the valve stem 5 then squeezes the pressure relief spring 7 upward, and at the same time, the valve stem 5 drives the disc 9 to move upward, so that the locking mechanism 8 limits the position of the disc 9, which can prevent the pressure relief spring 7 from resetting prematurely and does not hinder the valve seat 6 from resetting after pressure relief. When the pressure relief spring 7 or internal parts need to be replaced and maintained, the valve body 1 and the valve cover 2 can be quickly separated by the retaining ring 11 and the docking ring 10, thereby improving the safety and convenience of the pressure relief valve.

Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
