The pneumatic actuator receives the air pressure signal and drives the cylinder after conversion by the positioner, drives the valve stem through the transmission parts such as the connecting rod, and realizes precise control by the position feedback device; the electric actuator receives the electrical signal and drives the motor after processing by the controller, drives the valve stem through the transmission devices such as the reducer, and achieves closed-loop control with the help of the position sensor; the hydraulic actuator uses hydraulic oil as the power source, and controls the hydraulic cylinder through the hydraulic pump pressurization and hydraulic servo valve or proportional valve signal conversion, drives the valve stem through the connecting rod, etc., and relies on the displacement sensor to achieve precise control. The three use air pressure, electricity, and hydraulic pressure to drive the control valve and achieve precise adjustment.
[0004] Some existing control valve actuators are unable to achieve pipeline docking without tools. In some scenarios where emergency repairs or quick replacement of control valves are required, tools must be used to complete the docking, which takes a lot of time to find and use the tools, resulting in a cumbersome and time-consuming installation process, seriously affecting work efficiency, and further extending the downtime of the entire production process or device, causing unnecessary economic losses. Therefore, a control valve actuator is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0031] 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.
[0032] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 4 The utility model provides an embodiment of a control valve actuator, including a valve 1, which is made of sturdy and durable stainless steel with good corrosion resistance and strength. The top of the valve 1 is fixedly connected with a disassembly component for disassembling parts. The disassembly component can play a key role in convenient operation when the relevant parts of the control valve 7 need to be replaced or repaired.
[0033] Cylinders 8 are fixedly connected to both sides of the valve 1. Cylinders 8 are made of high-strength aluminum alloy, are light in weight and can withstand a certain pressure. The adjacent sides of the two cylinders 8 are fixedly connected to the outside of the valve 1. The driving end of the cylinder 8 is fixedly connected to a linkage block 9. The linkage block 9 is made of rigid material and can transmit power stably. One side of the linkage block 9 is fixedly connected to a rotating ring 10, which is made of wear-resistant alloy steel.
[0034] The inner side of the rotating ring 10 is rotatably connected to the outer side of the valve 1. The inner side of the rotating ring 10 is rotatably connected to three limiting blocks 2 11. The outer side of the limiting block 2 11 is fixedly connected to a limiting rod 15. The limiting rod 15 can effectively constrain the movement trajectory of the limiting block 2 11. The outer side of the limiting rod 15 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the rotating ring 10.
[0035] The interior of the limiting block 11 is slidably connected to a rotating plate 12. The surface of the rotating plate 12 is smooth and has a certain elasticity, which can better adapt to movement changes when cooperating with the limiting block 11. The outer side of the rotating plate 12 is slidably connected to the inside of the rotating ring 10. One side of the rotating plate 12 is fixedly connected to a connecting rod 14. The connecting rod 14 can rotate flexibly and has sufficient strength. The other end of the connecting rod 14 is rotatably connected to the outside of the valve 1.
[0036] Reference Figure 2 、 Figure 3 The disassembly component includes a fixed column 2, which is made of sturdy engineering plastic material with certain insulation and wear resistance. The inside of the fixed column 2 is fixedly connected with a spring 3, which is made of highly elastic alloy steel and can be repeatedly expanded and contracted without fatigue deformation. The top of the spring 3 is fixedly connected with a sliding ring 4, which has a smooth surface and a hard texture. The top of the sliding ring 4 is slidably connected to the inside of the connecting column 6, and the outer side of the sliding ring 4 is slidably connected to the inside of the fixed column 2.
[0037] The bottom of the fixed column 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the valve 1, and the outer side of the fixed column 2 is fixedly connected with multiple limiting blocks 5. The limiting blocks 5 have regular shapes and a certain surface roughness to increase friction. The outer side of the fixed column 2 is slidably connected with a connecting column 6. The connecting column 6 is made of high-quality carbon steel. A card slot 13 is provided inside the connecting column 6. The card slot 13 is set to be L-shaped. The outer side of the limiting block 5 is slidably connected to the inside of the card slot 13. The top of the connecting column 6 is fixedly connected to the control valve 7.
[0038] Working principle: When the staff needs to connect the valve 1 to the pipeline, they can slide the pipeline into the inside of the rotating ring 10, and then start the cylinder 8 to push the linkage block 9. One side of the linkage block 9 is connected to the outside of the rotating ring 10, so that the rotating ring 10 can be brought. The interior of the rotating ring 10 is connected to three limiting blocks 2 11, which are connected to a rotating plate 12. One side of the rotating plate 12 is connected to one side of the valve 1 through a connecting rod 14. When the rotating ring 10 rotates, the rotating plate 12 will be driven by the limiting block 2 11. Because one side of the rotating plate 12 is connected to the outside of the valve 1, it will affect the rotation of the limiting block 2 11 following the rotating ring 10 to a certain extent, so that the other end of the rotating plate 12 rotates inward, thereby fixing the pipeline.
[0039] When the control valve 7 needs maintenance, the control valve 7 can be rotated to drive the connecting column 6 at the bottom of the control valve 7. The top of the valve 1 is connected to the fixed column 2, and the outer sides of the fixed column 2 are connected with the limiting blocks 5. In this way, the valve control 7 can be restricted by the groove 13 opened inside the connecting column 6. The interior of the fixed column 2 is connected to multiple springs 3, and the top of the spring 3 is connected to a sliding ring 4. In this way, when the fixed column 2 is slid into the interior of the connecting column 6, the sliding ring 4 can contact the interior of the connecting column 6, thereby pressing the spring 3 downward through the sliding ring 4. When the pressure disappears, the spring 3 will rebound, and at this time the limiting block 5 is inside the groove 13. At this time, the spring 3 pushes the sliding ring 4, and the sliding ring 4 pushes the connecting column 6. In this way, the control valve 7 can be restricted by the tight connection between the connecting column 6 and the limiting block 5.
[0040] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
