The disadvantages of this circuit are long response times for large flow rate regulation and long thermal equilibrium times, resulting in large fluctuations in system operation and high energy consumption. The cost of using large-scale electric control valves for units with a system diameter of DN400 and above is approximately 10 times higher than for units below DN400. Furthermore, mature products for this component are mostly foreign brands, and due to technical bottlenecks, mature and reliable products are currently unavailable in China.

[0003] Publication number CN203231685U discloses a flow regulating device for branching a heat exchanger group, including: a diverter, an input pipe and a regulating assembly. The diverter is provided with a plurality of diverter holes penetrating the diverter along the length direction of the diverter. The plurality of diverter holes are respectively connected to the plurality of branches of the heat exchanger group, and one end of the input pipe is connected to the plurality of diverter holes.

[0004] The above-mentioned device adjusts the flow rate of each branch hole by adjusting the length of the core rod extending into the branch hole. In order to ensure the gradient change of the adjustment, the length of the core rod is designed to be longer, which makes the entire length of the entire device longer. It is not suitable for use in a small space environment. For this reason, an adjustable flow control device for the pipeline is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[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] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the utility model provides a technical solution of an adjustable flow control device for pipeline flow, which is arranged on the primary side pipeline of each heat exchanger of the heat exchanger unit to adjust the pipeline flow, including a core rod slider 1, a matching hole 2 is provided on the core rod slider 1, an input pipe 3 is connected to the matching hole 2, and a joint 4 is provided at the end of the input pipe 3, an adjusting mechanism 5 is provided in the core rod slider 1, and a limiting mechanism 6 is provided in the sealing piston 504. Through the coordinated use of the adjusting mechanism 5 and the limiting mechanism 6, the flow in multiple branch holes 502 can be adjusted simultaneously, or only the flow of one of the branch holes 502 can be adjusted.

[0024] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the adjustment mechanism 5 includes a diverter 501 fixed in the core rod slider 1, a diverter flow hole 502 is provided on the diverter 501, an adjustment electric push rod 507 is fixedly installed at one end of the core rod slider 1, a sealing piston 504 is fixedly installed at the output end of the adjustment electric push rod 507, a conical plunger 503 is provided on the sealing piston 504, a positioning spring 505 is provided at one end of the conical plunger 503, a positioning groove 506 is provided at one end of the core rod slider 1, and a limiting slide groove 601 is provided on the sealing piston 504.

[0025] Specifically, by adjusting the electric push rod 507, the sealing piston 504 can be driven to move forward. When the sealing piston 504 moves forward, it will drive the conical plunger 503 to move forward. When the conical plunger 503 moves forward, it will enter the bypass hole 502. The deeper the conical plunger 503 goes into the bypass hole 502, the smaller the gap between it and the bypass hole 502, thereby simultaneously adjusting the flow in each branch of the heat exchanger unit.

[0026] like Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the limiting mechanism 6 includes an iron spring seat 603 movably mounted in the sealing piston 504, a limiting block 602 is fixedly mounted on one side of the iron spring seat 603, a limiting spring 604 is provided on the other side of the iron spring seat 603, an electromagnet 605 is provided at the end of the limiting spring 604, an installation chamber 607 is opened in the sealing piston 504, the iron spring seat 603 is movably mounted in the sealing piston 504 through the installation chamber 607, a magnet positioning seat 606 is provided on the electromagnet 605, and the electromagnet 605 is installed at the end of the limiting spring 604 through the magnet positioning seat 606.

[0027] Specifically, the sealing piston 504 can be driven to move forward by adjusting the electric push rod 507. When the sealing piston 504 moves forward, each group of electromagnets 605 can be controlled to close at different times, so that the sealing piston 504 advances different distances on each group of conical plungers 503. After the sealing piston 504 advances different distances on each group of conical plungers 503, the limit block 602 will clamp the conical plunger 503 in the limit slide groove 601. Thereafter, the conical plunger 503 can be driven to move forward by adjusting the electric push rod 507, and the depth of each group of conical plungers 503 entering the branch flow hole 502 can be adjusted, and the refrigerant passing through each branch flow hole 502 can be adjusted, thereby independently adjusting the flow in each branch of the heat exchanger unit.

[0028] Working principle: The refrigerant in the air conditioner enters the input pipe 3 from the indoor and outdoor connecting pipes, and the refrigerant in the input pipe 3 enters multiple branch holes 502. Finally, the refrigerant passes through multiple branch holes 502 and enters multiple branches of the heat exchanger unit. During this process, the adjustment electric push rod 507 can be started. After starting the adjustment electric push rod 507, it will drive the sealing piston 504 to move forward. When the sealing piston 504 moves forward, it will drive the conical plunger 503 to move forward. When the conical plunger 503 moves forward, it will enter the branch hole 502. The deeper the conical plunger 503 goes into the branch hole 502, the smaller the gap between it and the branch hole 502, thereby adjusting the flow in each branch of the heat exchanger unit at the same time. When the sealing piston 504 moves forward, To control the closing of each group of electromagnets 605, after the electromagnets 605 are closed, the reset limit spring 604 will push the limit block 602 to move forward, so that the limit block 602 will clamp the conical plunger 503 in the limit slide groove 601, and the closing time of each group of electromagnets 605 can be controlled independently, thereby controlling the sealing piston 504 to advance different distances on each group of conical plungers 503. After the sealing piston 504 advances different distances on each group of conical plungers 503, the conical plunger 503 can be driven forward by adjusting the electric push rod 507, thereby adjusting the depth of each group of conical plungers 503 entering the branch flow hole 502, adjusting the refrigerant passing through each branch flow hole 502, and independently adjusting the flow in each branch of the heat exchanger unit.

[0029] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as illustrative and non-restrictive, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims, not the foregoing description, and all variations within the meaning and range of equivalents of the claims are intended to be encompassed within the present invention. Any reference sign in a claim should not be construed as limiting the claim to which it relates.
