Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of gas cylinder valves, in particular to a liquefied petroleum gas cylinder valve. Background Art
[0002] As a widely used fuel, the safety and reliability of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) have always been a key concern for users and related industries. Traditional LPG cylinder valve designs typically utilize a self-closing device at the outlet. The primary function of this device is to prevent accidental gas leakage and ensure the personal and property safety of users. Traditional self-closing devices often utilize a retaining ring, securing the valve core to the outlet of the valve body via a retaining ring and a pressure cap to prevent the core from loosening during use, thereby ensuring the stability and sealing of the valve. However, self-closing devices secured with retaining rings are relatively complex and require a large number of parts, which not only increases production costs but can also cause inconvenience during installation and maintenance. Furthermore, the complex structure increases the likelihood of failure, reducing the overall reliability of the valve. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0013] In order to more intuitively and completely understand the technical solution of the present invention, the following non-limiting features are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the present invention:
[0014] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, a liquefied petroleum gas cylinder valve includes a valve body 1, a handwheel 2 is installed on the upper end of the valve body 1, a valve assembly 3 extending up and down is installed in the valve body 1, the upper end of the valve assembly 3 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the handwheel 2, a pressure relief device 4 is installed on the left end of the valve body 1, an outlet end 11 is provided at the right end of the valve body 1, an inner cavity 111 is provided in the outlet end 11, the right end of the inner cavity 111 is open, a spring 5, a valve core 6 and a pressure cap 7 are installed in the inner cavity 111, the valve core 6 is located in the middle of the inner cavity 111, the spring 5 extends left and right and is stuck between the inner wall of the left end of the inner cavity 111 and the left end of the valve core 6, the pressure cap 7 is sleeved on the outside of the valve core 6, an O-ring 8 is stuck between the outer wall of the pressure cap 7 and the inner wall of the inner cavity 111, the right end of the inner cavity 111 has a step 1111, and the right end of the pressure cap 7 is pressed on the step 1111.
[0015] like Figure 2 As shown, a sealing gasket 9 is sleeved on the outer wall of the middle portion of the valve core 6, and the left end of the pressing cap 7 is pressed against the outer wall of the sealing gasket 9. The outer side of the sealing gasket 9 has an inclined surface 91, and the left end of the pressing cap 7 has an arc surface that presses against the inclined surface 91, facilitating contact between the pressing cap 7 and the inclined surface 91, so that the pressing cap 7 can stably press the sealing gasket 9.
[0016] like Figure 2As shown, the right end of the pressure cap 7 has a spring piece 71, which presses on the step 1111. Because the spring piece 71 presses on the step 1111, the pressure cap 7 is not easy to fall off and can also play a role in preventing disassembly. When installing the pressure cap 7, use a tool to expand the spring piece 71 so that the spring piece 71 presses on the step 1111.
[0017] like Figure 2 As shown, the left end of the inner cavity 111 has a first groove 1112, into which the left end of the spring 5 is inserted, and the left end of the valve core 6 has a second groove 61, into which the right end of the spring 5 is inserted. The spring 5 is securely mounted, and this design reduces deformation or damage to the spring 5 caused by uneven force during use.
[0018] The utility model provides a liquefied petroleum gas cylinder valve, which adopts a design in which a pressure cap 7 is directly pressed on a step 1111 of an inner cavity 111 of a valve body 1, replacing a traditional clamping ring fixing method, simplifying the fixing structure, reducing the number of parts, and lowering production costs.
[0019] Of course, the above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention, and do not limit the patent scope of the present invention. All simple modifications and equivalent structural changes made using the contents of the description and drawings of the present invention should be included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
