Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of liquid filling equipment, in particular to a high-speed aseptic double-liquid-level filling valve. Background Art
[0002] In the field of liquid filling, although the existing filling technology has met market demand to a certain extent, it still has some significant shortcomings, which limit the further improvement of filling efficiency, accuracy and sterility.
[0003] For example, filling accuracy is insufficient. Traditional filling methods often use relatively simple mechanical structures, which make it difficult to achieve precise control of the filling volume. Especially when filling small volumes, the friction and wear of mechanical components and the instability of liquid flow can easily lead to a decrease in filling accuracy, affecting the quality and consistency of the product. Insufficient filling accuracy can lead to large differences between products, affecting the consumer experience, and may even cause quality issues and damage the brand image. For example, the filling efficiency is low. Some existing filling equipment has certain limitations in design and manufacturing, resulting in slow filling speeds that cannot meet the needs of high-speed production lines. In addition, some equipment requires frequent manual intervention during the filling process, further reducing filling efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0028] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The utility model provides a high-speed aseptic dual-liquid-level filling valve, comprising a valve chamber 1, the upper end of which is a closed end, and the lower end of which is a liquid outlet 2. Piston 1 3, piston 2 4, and valve core 5 are arranged in sequence from top to bottom in the valve chamber 1. A buffer spring is sleeved on piston 2 4. Piston 1 3 pushes piston 2 4 to move, which in turn pushes valve core 5 to move. Valve core 5 extends into liquid outlet 2 to limit the amount of liquid discharged. In short, when a high-flow filling rate is required, piston 2 4 controls the flow rate independently. When a low-flow filling rate is required, piston 1 3 pushes piston 2 4 downward, quickly blocking part or all of liquid outlet 2, limiting the liquid flow rate and reducing the flow rate.
[0029] The valve chamber 1, the main body of the filling valve, consists, from top to bottom, of the cylinder upper cover 11, the cylinder lower cover 12, the upper valve seat 13, the lower valve seat 14, and the liquid outlet nozzle 15. These components are precision-machined and specially designed to ensure the stability and sealing of the overall structure. Piston 1 3 and piston 2 4 are respectively mounted in the cylinder upper cover 11 and the cylinder lower cover 12. The upper portion of the valve core 5 is mounted in the upper valve seat 13, and the lower portion is mounted in the lower valve seat 14. The liquid inlet 6 is located on the sidewall of the lower valve seat 14.
[0030] Please refer to Figure 1-3 The cylinder upper cover 11 includes an upper cover body 111. The upper cover body 111 is made of high-strength, corrosion-resistant material, and the upper end is a completely enclosed dome design to prevent the entry of external contaminants. The lower end of the upper cover body 111 is provided with a docking port 112. The docking port 112 is designed as a precise cylindrical hole, which tightly fits with the annular boss 122 of the cylinder lower cover 12, and a leak-free connection is achieved through an O-ring or a special sealing gasket. A straight-through mounting port 113 is provided on the side wall. The straight-through mounting port 113 is used to connect a straight-through pipe, which is connected to the air source to control the movement of the internal piston.
[0031] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 4 The cylinder lower cover 12 includes a lower cover body 121, which is also made of high-strength material and has openings at both ends. An annular boss 122 is provided at the upper end of the lower cover 121. This precisely machined annular protrusion seamlessly interfaces with the docking port 112 of the cylinder upper cover 11. A second through-hole 123 is provided on the sidewall of the lower cover 121. This through-hole 123 is used to connect to a through-tube, which is connected to the air source and controls the movement of the internal piston.
[0032] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 5The upper valve seat 13 includes a seat body 131. The seat body 131 is made of high-quality stainless steel. A through hole 132 is provided in the middle for liquid circulation. An annular boss 133 is provided at both the upper and lower ends of the through hole 132. The cylinder lower cover 12 and the upper valve seat 13 are plug-in connected via the annular boss 133. A two-way mounting port 134 is also provided on the upper valve seat 13. The two-way mounting port 123 is used to connect a straight-through pipe, which is connected to the air source to control the movement of the internal piston. The structure of the lower valve seat 14 is the same as that of the upper valve seat 13. The only difference is that the two-way mounting port 134 is not provided on the side wall, so its structure will not be described in detail. The upper valve seat 13 and the lower valve seat 14 are also plug-in connected via the annular boss 133.
[0033] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 6 Piston 1 (3) includes a piston push rod (31), a precision-machined cylindrical rod with a specially treated surface to reduce friction. An annular plug (32) is attached to the piston push rod (31), which tightly fits within the cylinder lower cover (12), forming a seal. The lower end of the piston push rod (31) is designed to be flat to ensure smooth contact with piston 2 (4).
[0034] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 7 Piston 2 (4) includes a piston push rod (41). This is similar to piston 1 (3), but has a longer stroke. An annular plug (42) is located above piston push rod (41). This plug also tightly fits within the cavity within cylinder lower cover (12) or upper valve seat (13), forming a seal. The lower portion of piston push rod (41) is a cavity (43). The lower portion of piston push rod (41) is tapered, with a larger diameter at the top for easier assembly.
[0035] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 8 The valve core 5 includes a plug-in section 51, the upper part of the plug-in section 51 is plugged into the cavity 43, and the lower end is connected to the clamping section 52. The upper end of the clamping section 52 is clamped to the lower end of the upper valve seat 13, and the lower end is connected to the flow control head 53. The flow control head 53 is suspended at the upper end of the liquid outlet nozzle 15, and its shape matches the liquid outlet 2.
[0036] Working principle:
[0037] In the initial state:
[0038] When the filling valve is in the closed position, the plug section 51 of the valve core 5 is inserted into the cavity 43 of the second piston 4, and its flow control head 53 is tightly fitted on the liquid outlet 2 of the liquid outlet nozzle 15, thereby preventing liquid from flowing out. The buffer spring 5 surrounds the second piston 4 and provides a reset force for the piston 4.
[0039] High flow filling process:
[0040] When high-flow filling is required, an external air source applies upward force to pistons 1 (3) and 2 (4) through direct-through installation port 1 (113) and 2 (123), respectively. Pistons 1 (3) and 2 (4) move upward simultaneously, driving flow control head 53 of valve core 5 gradually away from liquid outlet 2, thereby opening the filling channel. At this point, the liquid to be filled enters valve chamber 1 through liquid inlet 6 and flows out of liquid outlet 2 at high speed, achieving high-flow filling.
[0041] Small flow filling process:
[0042] When low-flow filling is required, the external air source applies a downward driving force to piston 1 3 and piston 2 4 simultaneously or separately through the straight-through mounting port 1 113 and the straight-through mounting port 2 123. The piston push rod 1 31 of piston 1 3 pushes piston 2 4 and the valve core 5 thereon to move downward synchronously. During this process, the annular plug body 2 42 of piston 2 4 remains sealed with the cavity in the cylinder lower cover 12 or the upper valve seat 13 to ensure that the liquid does not leak from the bypass. As piston 2 4 and valve core 5 continue to descend, the flow control head 53 gradually partially or completely blocks the liquid outlet 2, thereby limiting the flow rate and flow of the liquid. By precisely controlling the moving distance of piston 1 3 and piston 2 4, fine adjustment of the liquid filling amount can be achieved.
[0043] In summary, the high-speed aseptic dual-level filling valve realizes flexible adjustment and precise control of the liquid filling process through the coordinated action of piston 1 3 and piston 2 4, and the precise control of the liquid outlet by the valve core 5.
[0044] The above content is a further detailed description of the present invention in conjunction with specific preferred embodiments, and the specific implementation of the present invention cannot be considered to be limited to these descriptions. For those skilled in the art of the present invention, without departing from the concept of the present invention, several simple deductions or substitutions can be made, which should be considered to fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
