Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of process cooling water system technology, and in particular to a valve marking device, valve equipment and process cooling water system. Background Technology

[0002] Process cold water (PCW) systems, also known as process cooling water systems, are primarily used to cool process equipment; they can be understood as the air conditioning system for process equipment. A process cold water system consists of two relatively independent systems: chilled water and cooling water. The chilled water is supplied by a chiller, and it exchanges heat with the cooling water, causing the cooling water to cool down and thus lowering the temperature of the process equipment.

[0003] In related technologies, the markings used to indicate the open and closed status of valves in the cooling water system are chain-suspended markings. Chain-suspended markings are not convenient to operate and pose potential safety risks. For example, when changing the indication status of the marking, the marking needs to be removed from the hanging point, the chain needs to be separated to replace the marking hole, and then the marking with the changed status needs to be hung back at the hanging point. This is not convenient to operate. In addition, if the marking is not hung in an appropriate position, it will affect the safety of valve operation. Utility Model Content

[0033] It is understood that the terms "first," "second," etc., used herein may be used to describe various elements, but these elements are not limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish one element from another. For example, without departing from the scope of this application, a first resistor may be referred to as a second resistor, and similarly, a second resistor may be referred to as a first resistor. Both the first resistor and the second resistor are resistors, but they are not the same resistor.

[0034] It is understood that the term "connection" in the following embodiments should be understood as "electrical connection," "communication connection," etc., if the connected circuits, modules, units, etc., have electrical signal or data transmission with each other.

[0035] It is understandable that "at least one" refers to one or more, and "multiple" refers to two or more. "At least a part of an element" refers to part or all of an element.

[0036] When used herein, the singular forms of “a,” “an,” and “the” may also include the plural forms unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It should also be understood that the terms “comprising / including” or “having,” etc., specify the presence of the stated features, wholes, steps, operations, components, parts, or combinations thereof, but do not preclude the possibility of the presence or addition of one or more other features, wholes, steps, operations, components, parts, or combinations thereof. Meanwhile, the term “and / or” as used in this specification includes any and all combinations of the associated listed items.

[0037] The valve marking device provided in this application embodiment can be applied to valves in process cooling water systems, but is not limited to valves in other process systems.

[0038] In one exemplary embodiment, combined with Figure 1 and Figure 2 A valve marking device is provided, which includes a sleeve structure 210 and a marking piece 220.

[0039] The sleeve structure 210 includes a first opening 211 and a second opening 212. The first opening 211 serves as a channel for the valve-controlled pipeline 100 to enter and exit the interior of the sleeve structure 210. That is, the valve-controlled pipeline 100 can use the first opening 211 as a channel to enter and exit the interior of the sleeve structure 210. The sleeve structure 210 can be fitted onto or secured to the pipeline 100 through the first opening 211, and the sleeve structure 210 can also be removed from the pipeline 100 through the first opening 211, meaning the pipeline 100 can detach from the interior of the sleeve structure 210 through the first opening 211. When using a valve marking device to mark the valve's operating status on the valve-controlled pipeline 100, the sleeve structure 210 must be fitted onto the pipeline 100 through the first opening 211. The valve's operating status includes, but is not limited to, open and closed states.

[0040] The marking plate 220 is mechanically connected to the sleeve structure 210, and the marking plate 220 can move relative to the sleeve structure 210. The shape of the marking plate 220 can be similar to the shape of the sleeve structure 210 and the pipeline 100. When the sleeve structure 210 is fitted onto the pipeline 100, the surface of the marking plate 220 away from the pipeline 100 is provided with multiple markings. These multiple markings can correspond one-to-one with various working states of the valve, that is, one marking is used to mark one working state of the valve. For example, these multiple markings are, for example, marking "open" and marking "closed". The markings "open" and "closed" are used to mark the open state and closed state of the valve, respectively.

[0041] Based on the above, by moving the position of the indicator piece 220 relative to the sleeve structure 210, the target indicator is exposed in the second opening 212 to identify the corresponding working state of the valve. The target indicator is one of the plurality of indicators. When the target indicator is exposed in the second opening 212, the target indicator faces the user and is visible to the user. For example, when the position of the indicator piece 220 relative to the sleeve structure 210 is the first position, only the "Open" indicator is exposed in the second opening 212 of the sleeve structure 210, and the user can see the "Open" indicator at the second opening 212, indicating that the valve is in the open state. When the position of the indicator piece 220 relative to the sleeve structure 210 is the second position, only the "Closed" indicator is exposed in the second opening 212 of the sleeve structure 210, and the user can see the "Closed" indicator at the second opening 212, indicating that the valve is in the closed state. Furthermore, the material of the indicator piece 220 and / or the sleeve structure 210 can be a high-safety material such as plastic, and can be set according to actual needs; this embodiment does not specifically limit this.

[0042] In summary, the valve marking device provided in this application embodiment can be directly fitted onto the pipeline 100 controlled by the valve through the sleeve structure 210. Then, by moving the position of the marking piece 220 relative to the sleeve structure 210, the target marking is exposed in the second opening 212 of the sleeve structure 210, so that the target marking is visible to the user. The target marking can mark the corresponding working status of the valve. It is not only convenient to operate, but also highly safe. At the same time, the structure is simple, easy to implement, and low in cost.

[0043] In this embodiment of the application, there are various mechanical connection relationships between the identification piece 220 and the sleeve structure 210. Several of them are described below as examples, but are not intended to limit them.

[0044] In one exemplary embodiment, reference is made to Figure 3 The sleeve structure 210 includes a body 230, with the first opening 211 and the second opening 212 both located on the body 230. (Refer to...) Figure 4 The shape of the label 220 is the same as that of the sleeve structure 210. When the pipe 100 is located inside the sleeve structure 210, the label 220 is located between the pipe 100 and the sleeve structure 210 and the label 220 is in contact with the pipe 100.

[0045] In this embodiment, the label 220 and the body 230 can be mechanically connected, and the label 220 can move relative to the body 230. For example, the label 220 and the body 230 can be connected by a sliding structure, allowing relative movement between them. When the body 230 is fitted onto the pipe 100 through the first opening 211, the label 220 can move relative to the body 230 to expose the target label on the label 220 to the second opening 212. In this embodiment, the pipe sleeve structure 210 includes the body 230, and the shape of the label 220 is the same as that of the pipe sleeve structure 210, making the valve labeling device simple in structure, easy to implement, and low in cost. When changing the indication state of the label 220, it is only necessary to manually move the label 220 relative to the body 230 to move the target label to the second opening 212 for exposure, which is convenient to operate and highly safe.

[0046] In one exemplary embodiment, reference is made to Figure 5 The sleeve structure 210 includes a body 230 and a receiving cavity 240. A first opening 211 is located on the body 230, and the receiving cavity 240 is disposed on the surface of the body 230 away from the pipe 100. A second opening 212 is located on the receiving cavity 240, and the receiving cavity 240 is used to receive the label 220.

[0047] In this embodiment, when changing the indication state of the label 220, it is only necessary to manually move the label 220 within the receiving cavity 240 to move the target label to be exposed by the second opening 212. This is convenient to operate and highly safe. In addition, the sleeve structure 210 includes a body 230 and a receiving cavity 240, and the label 220 is housed within the receiving cavity 240, making the valve labeling device compact and highly practical.

[0048] In one exemplary embodiment, reference is made to Figure 6 or Figure 7 The label 220 is provided with a toggle structure 250, wherein when the toggle structure 250 is toggled, the position of the label 220 relative to the sleeve structure 210 is moved.

[0049] In this embodiment, a toggle structure 250 is provided on the label 220, making it easier to operate and improving convenience and safety when the label 220 is moved relative to the sleeve structure 210. The shape of the toggle structure 250 can be arbitrary, such as a long strip, and this embodiment does not specifically limit its shape.

[0050] In one exemplary embodiment, the plurality of identifiers includes a first identifier and a second identifier, which are used to identify different operating states of the valve, respectively.

[0051] For example, the operating states of a valve include an open state and a closed state.

[0052] In one exemplary embodiment, the first identifier is the word "open" customized on the identifier piece 220 to indicate the open state of the valve, and the second identifier is the word "closed" customized on the identifier piece 220 to indicate the closed state of the valve.

[0053] For example, when the target identifier is the first identifier and is exposed in the second opening 212, the target identifier faces the user and is visible to the user. The user can see the "open" identifier in the second opening 212, which indicates that the valve is in the open state. When the target identifier is the second identifier and is exposed in the second opening 212, the user can see the "closed" identifier in the second opening 212, which indicates that the valve is in the closed state.

[0054] In one exemplary embodiment, the first opening 211 and the second opening 212 are positioned opposite each other, thereby enhancing the convenience and practicality of the valve marking device.

[0055] In an exemplary embodiment, along the length of the pipeline 100, the length of the second opening 212 is less than the length of the body 230 of the pipe sleeve structure 210. The size of the second opening 212 is sufficient to expose the target mark, which makes the valve marking device easier to manufacture and more practical.

[0056] It is understood that the mechanical connection relationship between the above-mentioned label 220, the sleeve structure 210, the label 220 and the sleeve structure 210, and the multiple labels can also take other forms, not limited to the forms already mentioned in the above embodiments, as long as they can achieve the functions described therein.

Then, by moving the position of the marking piece 220 relative to the sleeve structure 210, the target marking is exposed in the second opening 212 of the sleeve structure 210, so that the target marking is visible to the user. The target marking can mark the corresponding working status of the valve. It is not only convenient to operate, but also highly safe. At the same time, the structure is simple, easy to implement, and low in cost.

[0059] In one exemplary embodiment, a process cooling water system is provided, including a cooling water pipeline 100 and a valve device provided in any of the above embodiments, wherein the valve in the valve device is used to control the cooling water pipeline 100, and a valve marking device is sleeved on the cooling water pipeline 100.

That is, the sleeve structure 210 can be directly fitted onto the pipeline 100 controlled by the valve.

The target marking can mark the corresponding working status of the valve. It is not only convenient to operate, but also highly safe. At the same time, the structure is simple, easy to implement, and low in cost.

By moving the position of the marking plate relative to the sleeve structure, the target marking is exposed in the second opening, thereby marking the corresponding working state of the valve.
