Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of valve cores, in particular to a valve core. Background Art
[0002] As a key pipeline accessory for fluid interception or flow, valve cores are widely used. In daily household bathrooms and household gas heating, the interception and flow of pipelines require various types of valve cores for control. In particular, when controlling multi-channel pipelines, multi-channel control valve cores are required.
[0003] Chinese patent CN117905906B discloses a valve core structure and a three-way valve with a central snap. The technical solution proposed is a valve core structure with a central snap, comprising: a valve body, provided with an inlet and a first and second outlets connected to the inlet; a valve stem, disposed within the valve body and movable along its own axial direction, with a first piston and a second piston slidingly sleeved around the outer periphery of the valve stem, the first piston for opening and closing the first outlet, and the second piston for opening and closing the second outlet; a first elastic component disposed on the valve stem for driving the first piston toward or away from the first outlet; a second elastic component disposed within the valve body for pushing the second piston toward the second outlet; and a central snap disposed on the valve stem for limiting the movement of the second piston toward the first piston. By adopting the above technical solution, the thrust exerted by the second elastic component on the second piston is transmitted through the valve stem rather than directly to the first piston, thereby reducing the force exerted on the first piston to open the first outlet.

[0017] The working principle and beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows:
[0018] The present invention provides a valve core, comprising: a valve stem, the valve stem passing through and connecting piston 1 and piston 2, the piston 1 and piston 2 being connected as a whole via a connecting plug; the upper portion of the piston 1 is connected to plug 1, the lower portion of the piston 2 is connected to a water outlet joint, and the lower portion of the plug 1 is connected to a valve frame. A plurality of separation grooves are provided on the valve stem, each of which is provided with a separation plate, the separation plate being used to limit the installation position of the valve stem on the valve frame; at least four separation plates are provided on the valve stem from top to bottom; among the separation plates from top to bottom: the first separation groove is located below the first sealing chamber, for limiting the installation position of the first sealing chamber; the second separation groove is located above the piston 1 and below the connecting cap 2, for limiting the installation position of the piston 1 and the connecting cap 2; the third separation groove is located above the connecting plug, for limiting the installation position of the connecting plug and the lower end of the piston; the fourth separation groove is located at the lowest end of the valve stem, for limiting the installation position of the spring limit platform.
[0019] In the present invention, a connecting plug is provided between piston 1 and piston 2 so that the connecting plug can connect the two pistons. The top end of the valve stem is connected to a driving device. Four partition grooves are designed on the valve stem, each of which is equipped with a partition plate. Each partition plate is used to divide and restrict different installation areas. From top to bottom, the first partition groove is located below the first sealing chamber to restrict the installation position of the first sealing chamber; the second partition groove is located above piston 1 and below connecting cap 2 to restrict the installation position of piston 1 and connecting cap 2; the third partition groove is located above the connecting plug to restrict the installation position of the connecting plug and the lower end of the piston; the fourth partition groove is located at the lowest end of the valve stem to restrict the installation position of the spring limiter.

The lower end bolt of the valve stem is connected to the spring bracket. When the valve core fails, the drive device and the bottom bolt can be disassembled and the valve core can be directly pulled out for repair or replacement. And because the structure is an integrated design, after being pulled out, piston one and piston two will not become loose. If the valve core only needs to be cleaned to eliminate the fault, the maintenance cost is effectively reduced. If the valve core needs to be replaced, it is disassembled and replaced according to the fault location. During installation, there is no need to consider the lack of installation restrictions at the lower end of the valve stem in the existing technology.

[0042] At the same time, it can be disassembled as a whole or in sections during use. When disassembling in sections, it can ensure that if a component of the valve body is damaged during use, the area corresponding to the component can be disassembled and repaired. The lower end bolt of the valve stem 7 is connected to the spring bracket 23.

[0044] The water outlet joint 11 is a tubular structure, and a circumferential outer wall of the water outlet joint 11 is provided with a boss 10 extending and protruding outward.
[0045] The valve rack 3 includes an upper valve rack 3 and a lower valve rack 3. The reciprocating motion of piston 1 5 and piston 2 6 by valve stem 7 is used to adjust the upper valve rack 3 and the lower valve rack 3 of the valve rack 3 and form an upper chamber and a lower chamber.
[0046] In this embodiment, according to Figure 4 As shown, the upper valve rack 3 forms a passage with branch pipe 2 27 and branch pipe 5 31, and the lower valve rack 3 forms a passage with branch pipe 4 29 and branch pipe 6 32; branch pipe 1 26 and the channel of the water outlet joint 11 form a passage; branch pipe 2 27 and branch pipe 3 28 are connected.

[0057] In this embodiment, pistons 1 5 and 2 6 move up and down via the pull of valve stem 7, thereby achieving coordinated motion within valve frame 3. The up and down movement of the two pistons, combined with the cooperation of the upper and lower valve frames 3 and the respective sealing rubber rings, achieves zoned sealing, enabling switching between different fluid channels. Furthermore, multiple sealing rubber rings are provided between the outer wall of the valve frame 3 and the inner wall of the main conduit to achieve sealing, effectively ensuring the airtightness of the valve core during use.
