In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish in the description, and have no special meaning.

[0025] Referring to Figure 1 As shown in the drawings, according to the pneumatic valve provided by the embodiment of the present application, the pneumatic valve comprises a pneumatic valve body 100, an actuator 200 and a sealing system 300. The pneumatic valve body 100 comprises a valve body 110 and a valve seat 120, and the valve body 110 and the valve seat 120 are bolted. The valve seat 120 is provided with a water inlet channel 121 and a water outlet channel 122. The water outlet channel 122 is vertically upward near one end of the center of the valve seat 120 and forms a middle port 123. The water inlet channel 121 and the water outlet channel 122 are communicated through the middle port 123.

[0026] The actuator 200 is installed in the valve body 110. The actuator 200 comprises a spring 210, a piston 220 and a guide sleeve 230. The outer peripheral wall of the guide sleeve 230 is tightly connected with the inner peripheral wall of the valve body 110. The piston 220 is provided with an integrally formed rod body 221. The rod body 221 penetrates through the guide sleeve 230 and is connected with a sealing gasket 240. The sealing gasket 240 is located above the middle port 123. The outer diameter of the sealing gasket 240 is greater than the hole diameter of the middle port 123.

[0027] The outer peripheral wall of the rod body 221, the top surface of the guide sleeve 230 and the inner wall of the valve body 110 form a sealing cavity. The piston 220 is slidingly assembled in the sealing cavity and divides the sealing cavity into an upper cavity 111 and a lower cavity 112 which are not communicated with each other. One of the upper cavity 111 and the lower cavity 112 is provided with a first gas port 113 which is communicated with an external gas source. The other one is provided with a second gas port 114 and internally installed with the spring 210. The spring 210 abuts against the piston 220. The spring 210 and the compressed gas at the first gas port 113 cooperate to drive the piston 220 to open or close the middle port 123.

[0028] The sealing system 300 comprises a first sealing assembly 310 and a second sealing assembly 320. The first sealing assembly 310 abuts between the piston 220 and the inner wall of the valve body 110. The second sealing assembly 320 abuts between the rod body 221 and the inner wall of the guide sleeve 230. Optionally, the first sealing assembly 310 and the second sealing assembly 320 can select common sealing members such as oil seals, sealing rings, sealing fillings or combinations of the above sealing members, which will not be described here.

[0029] Specifically, the pneumatic valve can set the position of the first air port 113 and the spring 210 according to actual needs. For example, the pneumatic valve needs to be set as a normally closed valve, at this time, the first air port 113 is arranged on the side wall of the lower cavity 112, the second air port 114 is arranged on the side wall of the upper cavity 111, and the spring 210 is installed in the upper cavity 111 and abuts against the piston 220 to drive the sealing gasket 240 to close the intermediate port 123. When the compressed air enters the first air port 113, the compressed air overcomes the resistance of the spring 210 to work, thereby lifting the piston 220 to open the intermediate port 123. For another example, the pneumatic valve needs to be set as a normally open valve, at this time, the first air port 113 is arranged on the side wall of the upper cavity 111, the second air port 114 is arranged on the side wall of the lower cavity 112, and the spring 210 is installed in the lower cavity 112 and abuts against the piston 220 to drive the sealing gasket 240 to leave the intermediate port 123. When the compressed air enters the first air port 113, the compressed air overcomes the resistance of the spring 210 to work, thereby depressing the piston 220 to close the intermediate port 123.

[0030] It can be understood that, by arranging the rod body 221 integrally formed with the piston 220, on the one hand, the original valve rod structure is cancelled, the assembly step of connecting the valve rod and the piston 220 is saved, the structure of the pneumatic valve is effectively simplified, the pneumatic valve assembly is facilitated, and the cost of the pneumatic valve is reduced; on the other hand, the coaxiality of the piston 220 and the rod body 221 can be ensured, thereby improving the assembly precision of the rod body 221, preventing the rod body 221 from being skewed when being assembled into the guide sleeve 230, avoiding the blockage and jamming of the valve rod, and the piston 220 and the rod body 221 being integrally formed can effectively improve the structural strength of the rod body 221 in the limited space, thereby enhancing the impact resistance of the rod body 221 and prolonging the service life of the pneumatic valve. In addition, the rod body 221 and the piston 220 are integrally formed, and the diameter of the rod body 221 can be adaptively increased, for example, the diameter of the rod body 221 is set to be greater than or equal to half of the inner diameter of the valve body 110 (i.e. the diameter of the sealing cavity), thereby greatly reducing the height-diameter ratio of the rod body 221, further improving the rigidity of the rod body 221, reducing the deflection and vibration of the rod body 221, and increasing the stress area of the sealing gasket 240, thereby improving the sealing performance and service life of the valve.

[0031] The actuator 200 further comprises a screw 250, one end of the rod body 221 away from the piston 220 is provided with a screw hole, the sealing gasket 240 is provided with a through hole, the screw 250 is arranged in the through hole and connected to the screw hole, and the head of the screw 250 abuts against the sealing gasket 240.

[0032] Compared with the traditional structure that the outer thread is arranged at the end of the valve rod, the sealing gasket 240 is positioned and fixed by the stepped structure, the gasket and the nut. By directly locking the sealing gasket 240 by the screw 250, the structure of the pneumatic valve can be further simplified, and the pneumatic valve assembly convenience is improved.

[0033] Further, the piston 220 is provided with a reinforcing portion 222, the reinforcing portion 222 is annular and protrudes upward, the outer circumferential wall of the reinforcing portion 222 is flush with the outer circumferential wall of the piston 220, in other words, the reinforcing portion 222 is an annular structure extending from the edge of the piston 220 and away from the guide sleeve 230.

[0034] By arranging the reinforcing portion 222, the strength of the piston 220 can be improved without occupying too much space in the upper cavity 111, and the surface area of the piston 220 can be increased, which facilitates the subsequent arrangement and use of the first sealing assembly 310.

[0035] Further, the piston 220 and the rod body 221 are integrally formed copper alloy parts. Alternatively, the guide sleeve 230, the valve body 110 and the valve seat 120 can also be integrally formed copper alloy parts.

[0036] Arranging the piston 220 and the rod body 221 as integrally formed copper alloy parts can further improve the strength of the piston 220 and prolong the service life of the piston 220. Moreover, the piston 220 made of copper alloy can cooperate with the guide sleeve 230, the valve body 110 and the valve seat 120 made of copper alloy, effectively improving the consistency of the pneumatic valve and reducing the material cost of the pneumatic valve.

[0037] It can be understood that the first sealing assembly 310 includes two O-rings, the outer circumferential wall of the piston 220 is provided with two annular grooves, the two annular grooves are arranged at intervals along the radial direction of the piston 220, and the O-rings are installed in the annular grooves and abut against the inner wall of the valve body 110.

[0038] Arranging the first sealing assembly 310 as two spaced O-rings can simplify the structure of the first sealing assembly 310 and facilitate the assembly of the first sealing assembly 310, while the two O-rings cooperate to achieve double sealing between the piston 220 and the valve body 110, thereby improving the sealing performance between the piston 220 and the valve body 110. The structure of the second sealing assembly 320 can refer to the description of the first sealing assembly 310 above, which will not be repeated here.

[0039] Referring to Figure 2 It can be understood that the valve body 110 and the valve seat 120 cooperate to form a positioning groove 130, the bottom end of the guide sleeve 230 is provided with a positioning portion 231, and the positioning portion 231 is arranged around the guide sleeve 230 and limited in the positioning groove 130. Specifically, the side of the valve body 110 facing the valve seat 120 is provided with a first groove 115, and the side of the valve seat 120 facing the valve body 110 is provided with a second groove 124, the first groove 115 and the second groove 124 are the same in shape and size, and after the valve body 110 and the valve seat 120 are connected, the first groove 115 and the second groove 124 are correspondingly communicated and form the positioning groove 130.

[0040] The positioning groove 130 and the positioning portion 231 are arranged, the positioning portion 231 is clamped into the positioning groove 130, and the installation stability of the guide sleeve 230 can be effectively improved. The positioning groove 130 is formed by cooperation of the valve body 110 and the valve seat 120, that is, the valve body 110 and the valve seat 120 clamp and position the positioning portion 231 at the same time, the structural compactness of the pneumatic valve is effectively improved, and the bottom surface of the guide sleeve 230 does not need to be additionally provided with a positioning structure matched with the valve seat 120, the structure of the guide sleeve 230 is simplified, and the design and processing of the guide sleeve 230 are facilitated.

[0041] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 It can be understood that the sealing system 300 further comprises a third sealing assembly abutting between the guide sleeve 230 and the inner wall of the pneumatic valve body 100. Since the pneumatic valve body 100 is composed of the valve body 110 and the valve seat 120, the third sealing assembly at least comprises two O-rings, one of which abuts between the guide sleeve 230 and the valve body 110, and the other of which abuts between the guide sleeve 230 and the valve seat 120.

[0042] By arranging the third sealing assembly, the third sealing assembly can improve the sealing between the guide sleeve 230 and the valve body 110 and between the guide sleeve 230 and the valve seat 120, avoid leakage of compressed air or medium from the inside of the pneumatic valve body 100, and further improve the overall sealing of the pneumatic valve.

[0043] Referring to Figure 1 It can be understood that the spring 210 is installed in the upper cavity 111, the end of the rod body 221 away from the sealing gasket 240 is provided with a positioning hole 2211, and the spring 210 is limited in the positioning hole 2211. In addition, when the spring 210 is installed in the lower cavity 112, the spring 210 is sleeved on the rod body 221.

[0044] By arranging the positioning hole 2211, the spring 210 can be conveniently positioned and installed, and the installation stability of the spring 210 can be effectively improved.

[0045] Further, when the spring 210 is installed in the upper cavity 111 (that is, when the pneumatic valve is a normally closed valve), the second gas port 114 is also arranged on the side wall of the upper cavity 111. At this time, the second gas port 114 can be arranged directly above the positioning hole 2211 (that is, the second gas port 114, the positioning hole 2211 and the rod body 221 are coaxial), a float rod 2212 is arranged at the center of the positioning hole 2211, and the float rod 2212 penetrates the second gas port 114.

[0046] By setting the float rod 2212 penetrating the second air port 114, when the first air port 113 is connected with compressed air, the piston 220 rises and drives the float rod 2212 to rise, and the user can judge the stroke distance of the piston 220 by observing the rising height of the float rod 2212, and further judge the opening size of the pneumatic valve, thereby improving the user experience.

[0047] Further, the side wall of the float rod 2212 penetrating the valve body 110 is provided with a scale line.

[0048] By setting the scale line, the user can accurately calculate the stroke distance of the piston 220, and further calculate the opening size, compressed air pressure, medium flow rate and other parameters, thereby facilitating more accurate control of the pneumatic valve.

[0049] Obviously, the above embodiments of the utility model are only examples for clearly illustrating the utility model, and are not a limitation on the embodiments of the utility model. For ordinary skilled in the art, various obvious changes, readjustment and replacement can be made without departing from the protection scope of the utility model.
