[0032] Embodiment 1:
[0033] As Figure 1 , 2As shown in Figures 3 and 4, a sealing valve for use at the connection port of a powder forming device comprises a valve body 1, a valve plate 5, and a rotating shaft 4. The valve body 1 includes two connecting valves 11, each having an inner ring. The two connecting valves 11 are spliced together and bolted together via an external connecting strip 2. A sleeve 12 is fixed to one side of the two connecting valves 11 and is located at the splice of the two connecting valves 11. The sleeve 12 can be formed by butting two semi-cylindrical bodies together, and each semi-cylindrical body and a connecting valve 11 can be integrally formed. The axes of the valve body 1 and the sleeve 12 are coaxial and perpendicular to each other. A rotating groove 3 is provided on the inner wall of the ring of the valve body 1, coaxial with the sleeve 12. Two rotating grooves 3 are provided and arranged opposite each other. Rotating shafts 4 are provided at both ends of the valve plate 5. The valve plate 5 is coaxial with the valve body 1, and each rotating shaft 4 rotates coaxially with a rotating groove 3. Each rotating shaft 4 can be inserted into and rotates within the rotating groove 3. One of the rotating shafts 4 is longer and is sleeved inside the sleeve 12 and passes through the sleeve 12 to the outside. A toggle rod 20 is provided on one end of the rotating shaft 4 located outside the sleeve 12. Rotating the toggle rod 20 can drive the rotating shaft 4 to rotate, thereby driving the valve plate 5 to rotate in the valve body 1.
[0034] A large sealing ring 6 is sleeved on the outside of the rotating shaft 4 for sealing. Multiple air inlet holes 121 are provided on the sleeve 12, evenly spaced along the circumference of the sleeve 12. Annular vent grooves 122 are provided on the inner wall of the sleeve 12, communicating with each of the air inlet holes 121. Gas can enter the annular vent grooves 122 through the air inlet holes 121. The large sealing ring 6 is located within the annular vent grooves 122, with a gap between the outer circumference of the large sealing ring 6 and the inner circumference of the annular vent grooves 122. An air supply channel 15 is provided on the outside of the sleeve 12, communicating with the air inlet holes 121. The air inlet end of the air supply channel 15 is connected to a gas source, allowing gas from the gas source to enter the air inlet holes 121 through the air supply channel 15.
[0035] During use, the inert gas is first filled into the gas source, enters the air inlet 121 through the air supply channel 15, and enters the annular ventilation groove 122 through the air inlet 121, so that the inert gas fills the inflation space between the annular ventilation groove 122 and the large sealing ring 6, thereby preventing outside air from entering the valve body 1, eliminating impurities caused by oxidation and combustion, and thus improving the quality of powder molding.
[0036] In this embodiment, inert gas is introduced into the gas source and then further into the annular vent groove 122 through the gas delivery channel 15. This process controls the amount of gas introduced, ensuring that the plenum space is adequately filled with inert gas, thereby preventing the ingress of outside air and preventing impurities from oxidizing and burning. This design provides a more stable and continuous gas supply, improving the stability of the production process.
[0037] Furthermore, the gas source is a gas collection box 13, which is mounted outside the casing 12. This box 13 is an annular box with an annular cavity inside that contains inert gas. A charging valve 19 is provided in the box 13, through which a certain amount of inert gas is introduced. A gas supply channel 15 is also connected to the box 13.
[0038] Preferably, a gas supply port 16 is provided at the end of the gas supply channel 15 that connects to the gas inlet 121. A one-way valve is provided within the gas supply port 16. Multiple air pumps 14 are provided outside the gas collection box 13, with the pump outlet of each air pump 14 connected to the gas supply channel 15. In this embodiment, the gas supply channel 15 can be made of a flexible material. The air pumps 14, gas supply channel 15, gas supply port 16, and inflation valve port 19 form an inflation system.
[0039] During use, a sufficient amount of inert gas is pumped into the gas collection box 13 through the inflation valve port 19. The inflation valve port 19 is then closed and the air pump 14 is activated. The inert gas is then delivered to the flexible air delivery channel 15 through the air delivery interface 16. By delivering inert gas through the air pump 14, the amount of gas charged can be more accurately controlled, ensuring that the inflatable space is adequately filled with inert gas. Furthermore, the ability to precisely control the flow rate and volume of the inert gas through the air pump 14 makes the inflation process more controllable, further ensuring that the gas supply during the production process is always in an optimal state, and avoiding the problem of excessive or insufficient gas supply.
[0040] Example 2:
[0041] In addition to Example 1, a small sealing ring 7 is further sleeved around the exterior of the rotating shaft 4. The inner wall of the sleeve 12 is provided with an annular groove, within which the small sealing ring 7 is sleeved. Two small sealing rings 7 are provided, one on either side of the large sealing ring 6. By adding additional small sealing rings 7 on either side of the large sealing ring 6, the inert gas can be more securely enclosed within the system, reducing the risk of gas leakage and thereby improving the sealing effect.
[0042] Example 3:
[0043] Based on Example 2, further, a sleeve 12 is provided through the end of the rotating shaft 4, and an air collecting groove 9 is provided on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 4. The air collecting groove 9 is an inner groove and is provided along the outer circumference of the rotating shaft 4. The air collecting grooves 9 are evenly arranged along the circumference of the rotating shaft 4. Two air collecting grooves 9 are symmetrically provided along the large sealing ring 6, and each air collecting groove 9 is located between the large sealing ring 6 and the corresponding small sealing ring 7. Multiple return air channels 8 are provided along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 4. One end of each return air channel 8 extends radially along the rotating shaft 4 and passes through the rotating shaft 4 to connect with two air collecting ring grooves 9. The other end of each return air channel 8 extends along the axis of the rotating shaft 4 to the end face of the rotating shaft 4. Therefore, the return air channels 8 are generally F-shaped. The radial portion of each return air channel 8 on one air collecting ring groove 9 along the rotating shaft 4 is parallel to the radial portion of the corresponding return air channel 8 on the other air collecting ring groove 9, while the axial portion of each return air channel 8 along the rotating shaft 4 overlaps with the axial portion of the corresponding return air channel 8 on the other air collecting ring groove 9, sharing a common axial distribution section. A return air pipe 17 is connected to the end face of the rotating shaft 4. Each return air pipe 17 is connected to the gas collection box 13. Each return air pipe 17 is connected to the return air channel 8 and the gas collection box 13 via a return air interface 18. Each return air interface 18 is provided with a one-way valve. The return air pipe 17 is preferably made of a flexible material to ensure that the valve plate 5 can rotate normally. The gas collecting ring groove 9, the gas return channel 8, and the gas return pipe 17 form a gas return system.
[0044] In this embodiment, the design of the gas collecting annular groove 9 and the gas return channel 8 allows for more effective control of the gas flow path, ensuring uniform gas distribution during the inflation process, avoiding gas waste or localized gas shortages, and further improving the efficiency and consistency of the inflation process. Furthermore, the gas collecting annular groove 9 and the gas return channel 8 can be utilized to recover and re-store the gas in the gas collection box 13 after use. This design not only helps reduce inert gas consumption and production costs, but also effectively reduces waste gas emissions, complying with environmental protection requirements.
[0045] When the inert gas slowly overflows, the gas flow path is guided to the small sealing ring 7 and the return gas channel 8 through the gap between the sleeve 12 and the rotating shaft 4, and then returns to the gas collection box 13 from the gas collecting ring groove 9, thereby effectively preventing the inert gas from overflowing from the outside and further improving the safety of the system and the gas utilization efficiency.
[0046] The utility model improves the design of the inflation and return air systems, making the gas supply to each molding device more stable and uniform, thereby improving the consistency and stability of the blanks during the powder molding process, reducing performance differences caused by uneven gas supply, and thus helping to improve the quality of the final product.
[0047] The above detailed description of the specific embodiments of the present application has been made for the purpose of illustrating the purpose, technical solutions and beneficial effects of the present application, and it should be understood that the above is only a specific embodiment of the present application and is not used to limit the protection scope of the present application, and any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
