[0002] The four-way valve is a control valve with four pipe ports. It is an indispensable component in refrigeration equipment. It has a piston installed inside that drives the valve seat to slide in the valve body. The change of air pressure in the air chambers on both sides pushes the piston to slide left and right, so that the valve core switches the connection relationship between the pipe ports, realizing the change between the refrigeration cycle and the heating cycle.
[0003] Wear caused by long-term use will cause the valve core to not move in the right direction, resulting in the three pipe ports being briefly connected during the movement of the valve core, causing air cross-pressure relief, resulting in the high pressure not being high and the low pressure not being low, thereby reducing the displacement distance of the valve core.

[0021] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.
[0022] The present invention provides a four-way valve to prevent cross-flow of gases.
[0023] like Figure 1-5 As shown, it includes a main valve body 1, a first interface 2 is opened on the upper side of the main valve body 1, and three second interfaces 3 are opened on the lower side of the group valve body 1. A valve cavity 5 is arranged inside the main valve body 1, and a valve seat 4 is fixed to the lower side wall of the valve cavity 5. The three second interfaces 3 are connected to the valve cavity 5 through the valve seat 4, and a valve core mechanism is slidably installed on the valve seat 4.
[0024] like Figure 2 、 Figure 3 As shown, a valve core mechanism is slidably installed on the valve seat 4, and the valve core mechanism includes a valve core slider 6, a valve core bracket 7, a valve core piston 8 and two sets of symmetrically arranged sealing components. The valve core slider 6 is slidably installed on the upper side of the valve seat 4, and a connecting groove 9 is opened on the lower side of the valve core slider 6. A connecting channel is formed between the connecting groove 9 and the upper side of the valve seat 4. The connecting groove 9 is covered above the second interface 3. The valve core bracket 7 is fixed on the valve core slider 6 and extends to both sides. The valve core piston 8 is fixed at both ends of the valve core bracket 7. The core piston 8 is slidably arranged in the valve cavity 5, dividing the two ends of the valve cavity 5 into sealed cavities 10. The first interface 2 and the three second interfaces 3 can be separated into two groups of pipeline loops through the valve core slider 6. The sealed cavities 10 at both ends are respectively connected to the first interface 2 and the middle second interface 3 through the pre-valve, so that the sealed cavities 10 at both ends form a high-temperature and high-pressure sealed cavity 10 and a low-temperature and low-pressure sealed cavity 10. The pressure difference of the sealed cavities 10 at both ends pushes the valve core pistons 8 at both ends, so that the valve core slider 6 slides left and right to realize the reversal of the four-way valve.
[0025] like Figure 4 、 Figure 5As shown, the sealing assembly includes a sealing cylinder 11, a sliding core rod 12, a tension spring 13, a sealing plate 14 and two communicating pipes 15. The sealing cylinder 11 is horizontally passed through the two ends of the valve core slider 6, and sealing pistons 16 are provided at both ends of the sliding core rod 12. The sliding core rod 12 is slidably placed inside the sealing cylinder 11, and the sealing plate 14 is slidably installed in the communicating groove 9. A support beam 17 is fixed to the front side of the sealing plate 14, and a displacement groove is opened in the middle of the sealing cylinder 11. The front end of the support beam 17 passes through the displacement groove and is fixed on the sliding core rod 12. The tension spring 13 is connected between the sliding core rod 12 and the sealing cylinder 11, and the two communicating pipes 15 are respectively connected to the two ends of the sealing cylinder 11, and the two communicating pipes 15 are both bent and connected to the valve core piston 8 on the side facing away from the connection position of the sealing cylinder 11.
[0026] Working principle: In the present invention, through the above technical solution, taking one of the sealing components as an example, the two communicating pipes 15 are bent and extended, so that the two ends of the sealing cylinder 11 are respectively provided with the valve core piston 8 on the side facing away from the connection and connected with the sealing cavity 10 on that side, and then the sealing pistons 16 at both ends of the sliding core rod 12 are blocked inside the sealing cylinder 11, so that the pressure of the sealing cavities 10 on both sides acts on both sides of the sealing pistons 16 at both ends of the sliding core rod 12. The sliding core rod 12 can be pushed to slide left and right in the sealing cylinder 11 through the change in pressure difference. Under normal conditions, the pressure difference of the sealing cavities 10 at both ends is large, and the sealing plate 14 is pressed outward against the inner wall of the valve core slider 6. The inner wall of the valve core slider 6 contacts the outer side of the sealing plate 14 to play a limiting role. When cross-flow occurs, the high pressure is not high and the low pressure is not low. The pressure difference of the sealing cavities 10 at both ends gradually increases. Gradually decreases, that is, the pressure of the pressure difference on the sealing piston 16 decreases. Under the pulling force of the tension spring 13, the sealing plate 14 slides inward until the sealing plate 14 translates across the second interface 3 on the high-pressure side. During the sliding process, the sealing of the sealing plate 14 and the connecting groove 9 of the valve core slider 6 is guaranteed, which can achieve the effect of isolating and blocking the sealing space formed by the sealing groove and the sealing plate 14 from the second interface 3 on the high-pressure side. At this time, the second interface 3 on the high-pressure side is connected with the first interface 2, and the middle second interface 3 is connected with the second interface 3 on the low-pressure side, forming a temporary circulation channel. After that, the pressure in the sealing chambers 10 on both sides gradually recovers, and continues to push the valve core piston 8 to slide toward the low-pressure side until the valve core slider 6 is completely separated from the second interface 3 on the high-pressure side, completing the reversal. At the same time, as the pressure in the sealing chambers 10 on both sides gradually recovers, the sealing plate 14 is reset under the pulling force of the tension spring 13.
[0027] It is further configured that a support ring 18 is integrally formed and fixed in the middle of the sealing cylinder 11, the sliding core rod 12 slides through the middle of the support ring 18, a threaded groove is provided on the sliding core rod 12, and a positioning ring 19 is threadedly connected to the sliding core rod 12. The two ends of the tension spring 13 are respectively fixed on the support ring 18 and the positioning ring 19. Through the above technical solution, adjusting the position of the positioning ring 19 can adjust the tension of the tension spring 13, thereby adjusting the left and right positions of the sliding core rod 12.
[0028] It is further configured that a horizontal groove is provided on the lower edge of the valve core slider 6, and a sealing piece 20 is slidingly connected in the horizontal groove. When the sliding piece slides to the left over the second interface 3 on the high-pressure side, the sealing piece 20 slides to the low-pressure side and seals above the second interface 3 on the low-pressure side. A connecting slide rod 21 is connected between the sealing piece 20 and the sealing piece 14 on the side facing away from the sealing piece 20. A through groove is provided on the other sealing piece 14 at a position corresponding to the connecting slide rod 21, and the connecting slide rod 21 passes through the through groove and is connected to the rear side of the sealing piece 20.
[0029] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
