Abstract

Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a relief valve, in particular to an adjustable relief valve for mineral oil. Background Art
[0002] Existing drive devices, such as motors, require oil for lubrication and cooling to meet their long-term operational needs. High-power motors use relatively viscous mineral oil. When the oil expands due to rising temperatures, without proper external circulation guidance, it can easily overflow, impacting the motor's normal operation.
[0003] To address this issue, a relief control valve is often installed in the motor's oil inlet passage. However, the traditional relief valve structure is not suitable for viscous media and is prone to blockage at the inlet, reducing relief efficiency and causing delayed activation of the relief valve, which can still lead to oil overflow.
[0004] Furthermore, due to the wide variety of motor models, the mineral oils used have varying viscosities. This makes the overflow valve incompatible, requiring a suitable resilient reset mechanism for each mineral oil. Furthermore, mineral oil is prone to flow shock during flow, especially when overflow is required. Currently, the necessary slow-release mechanism is lacking, which can affect the normal circulation of the mineral oil during overflow and result in improper overflow in the form of splashing.
[0005] In view of the above-mentioned defects, the designer has actively carried out research and innovation in order to create an adjustable overflow valve for mineral oil to make it more valuable for industrial use. Utility Model Content

[0035] The following embodiments are used to illustrate the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
[0036] like Figure 1 The adjustable relief valve for mineral oil includes a valve body 1, an inlet hole 2 is provided at one end of the valve body 1, and a plurality of overflow holes 3 are provided at one end of the valve body 1. The difference lies in that a valve sleeve 4 is installed in the valve body 1, and an adjusting device is installed at the other end of the valve sleeve 4. In this way, different rebound reset coefficients can be adjusted according to the viscosity of the mineral oil, so as to facilitate reset after overflow. Specifically, the adjusting device is movably connected to the main valve core 5 through a slow-release device. In the standby state, the main valve core 5 blocks the inlet hole 2 and the overflow hole 3 respectively. At the same time, in order to achieve moderate slow-release overflow in the event of high oil pressure according to the flow characteristics of mineral oil, a slow-release channel is provided on the main valve core 5, and a piston 6 is installed in the slow-release channel. The piston 6 is in contact with the slow-release device. To accommodate potential oil pressure fluctuations during use and prevent unnecessary back-and-forth movement of the main valve core 5, the release mechanism includes a main spring 7 and a secondary spring 8. The main spring 7 is nestled inside the secondary spring 8, with the two co-centrically located. The wire diameter of the main spring 7 is smaller than that of the secondary spring 8. This allows for multi-level, step-by-step compression during oil pressure fluctuations, achieving effective overflow release. During implementation, the wire diameter of the secondary spring 8 ranges from 1 to 1.8 mm. This effectively mitigates oil pressure fluctuations caused by mineral oil.
[0037] In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a rear end limit groove is provided on the outside of the valve body 1, and a rear end sealing ring 9 is sleeved in the rear end limit groove. Simultaneously, a middle end limit groove is also provided on the outside of the valve body 1, and a middle end sealing ring 10 is sleeved in the middle end limit groove. Furthermore, a front end limit groove is also provided on the outside of the valve body 1, and a front end sealing ring 11 is sleeved in the front end limit groove, and a retaining ring 12 is sleeved outside the front end sealing ring 11. In this way, during use, matching and connection of different docking pipe diameters can be achieved, ensuring that no loosening occurs on the joint end faces after docking is completed. Even if liquid flow impact occurs during overflow, unnecessary displacement of the valve body 1 at the installation position will not occur, thus meeting the need for stable overflow.
[0038] Furthermore, the adjustment device includes an adjustment screw 13 threadedly connected to the valve sleeve 4. A nut 14 is connected to the rear end of the adjustment screw 13. An adjustment spring 15 is mounted on the front end of the adjustment screw 13. A cone valve core 16 is mounted on the front end of the adjustment spring 15. The front end of the cone valve core 16 extends beyond the valve sleeve 4. Thus, by adjusting the position of the adjustment screw 13, the final compressed retraction stroke of the main valve core 5 during the slow-release pressure period can be controlled, achieving optimal slow-release reserve intervention values for different mineral oils and ensuring overflow within the appropriate oil pressure range. Furthermore, a contact protrusion is provided on the front end of the cone valve core 16, and a corresponding docking groove is provided at the corresponding position on the piston 6. This allows the piston 6 to drive the main valve core 5 back and contact the cone valve core 16, achieving a better slow-release effect in the event of a localized high oil pressure shock.
[0039] In actual implementation, to prevent the adjusting screw 13 from accidentally loosening at the extreme position, a retaining spring 17 is provided on the outer side of the adjusting screw 13, and a receiving groove is provided on the inner side of the valve sleeve 4, in which the retaining spring 17 is located. In this way, the adjusting screw 13 can be limited at the maximum spacing to ensure that it will not loosen. In addition, an adjusting seal ring 18 is provided on the outer side of the adjusting screw 13, and the adjusting seal ring 18 contacts the valve sleeve 4 to prevent unnecessary end overflow. Furthermore, to prevent the cone valve core 16 from tilting during movement and to avoid interference between the main spring 7 and the auxiliary spring 8, a limiting ridge is provided on the rear end of the cone valve core 16, and the limiting ridge is inserted into the adjusting spring 15.
[0040] Furthermore, a first sealing ring 19 is located at the rear end of the valve sleeve 4, contacting the valve body 1. This prevents oil from leaking out of this joint even under extreme oil pressure. Furthermore, a second sealing ring 20 is located at the front end of the valve sleeve 4, overlying a Gly ring 21. This ensures an effective contact seal at the joint when the present invention is docked with the corresponding pipeline, preventing leakage at this joint.
[0041] During implementation, in order to have a better standby temporary sealing effect, a blocking protrusion is distributed on the front end of the main valve core 5. In this way, in the standby state, the blocking protrusion abuts the inlet hole 2, and the side wall of the main valve core 5 abuts the overflow hole 3.
[0042] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:
[0043] After installation, the current oil pressure is assumed to be normal oil pressure. The user adjusts the device to make the main valve core 5 block the inlet hole 2 and the overflow hole 3. Usually, loosening it adapts to a smaller oil pressure, and tightening it adapts to a larger oil pressure.
[0044] During operation, the mineral oil experiences increased pressure due to exposure to high temperatures or the introduction of high-flow external media. During this period, the pressurized mineral oil begins to push against the main valve core 5. Simultaneously, piston 6 also begins to move inward. Consequently, the main valve core 5 and piston 6 sequentially apply pressure to the main spring 7 and auxiliary spring 8. Because the main spring 7 and auxiliary spring 8 have different wire diameters, their deformation and pressure states differ, causing the main valve core 5 to gradually build up internal pressure.
[0045] Afterwards, the inlet hole 2 and the overflow hole 3 are connected to achieve overflow under high oil pressure conditions.
[0046] During the overflow period, when the oil pressure approaches the preset value, the main spring 7 and the auxiliary spring 8 are gradually reset, and finally the valve core blocks the inlet hole 2 and the overflow hole 3 again.
[0047] During implementation, if the buffering efficiency is felt to be too fast or too slow, the user can rotate the nut 14 again to adjust the preload state of the adjustment spring 15 in the standby state so that the main spring 7 and the auxiliary spring 8 have a better deformation stroke to meet the overflow requirement.
[0048] It can be seen from the above text description and the accompanying drawings that the present invention has the following advantages:
[0049] 1. It is equipped with an independent adjustment device, which can select the appropriate adjustment spring distance according to the viscosity, type and model of the current mineral oil, so that the slow-release device has a suitable deformation stroke.
[0050] 2. The slow-release device adopts a double-spring design with unequal linear diameters. During the impact, it can achieve layer-by-layer deformation and slow release, which will not cause impact on the pipeline equipment connected to the overflow hole and avoid overflow in the overflow state.
[0051] 3. It is equipped with multiple sets of sealing structures. During use, there will be no improper overflow at the ends and joints, which will not affect the internal environment of the equipment and the circulation of mineral oil in the pipeline.
[0052] 4. The main valve core can simultaneously realize the blocking and conduction of the main inlet hole and the overflow hole, without the need for additional controllers, thus reducing the cost of use.
[0053] 5. The overall structure is simple, easy to manufacture and maintain, and meets the requirements of pre-installation positioning in conventional pipelines. It can be installed in the mineral oil lubrication pipelines of current equipment.
[0054] In addition, the indicated orientations or positional relationships described in the present invention are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description. They do not indicate or imply that the device or structure referred to must have a specific orientation or be operated in a specific orientation structure. Therefore, they cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.
[0055] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. It should be pointed out that ordinary technicians in this technical field can make several improvements and modifications without departing from the technical principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as within the scope of protection of the present invention.
