[0021] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 4 ,in, Figure 1 This is a three-dimensional structural diagram of the ball valve with anti-reverse function according to this utility model; Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the valve body and circular ball valve structure of the ball valve with anti-reverse function provided by this utility model; Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the valve body disassembled for the ball valve with anti-reverse function provided by this utility model; Figure 4 This is a cross-sectional view of a circular ball valve with a backflow prevention function provided by this utility model. The ball valve with a backflow prevention function includes: a valve body 1, with flange connecting pipes 101 fixedly connected to both ends of the valve body 1, a ball groove 3 opened inside the valve body 1, a circular ball valve 301 rotatably installed in the ball groove 3, and a backflow prevention mechanism provided inside the circular ball valve 301;

[0022] The anti-reverse mechanism includes a second flow hole 4, which is located inside a circular ball valve 301. A fixed rod 401 is fixedly installed inside the second flow hole 4. A movable rod 402 slides through the fixed rod 401. A push plate 403 is fixedly installed at one end of the movable rod 402. A spring 404 is slidably sleeved on the movable rod 402. The two ends of the spring 404 abut against the fixed rod 401 and the push plate 403, respectively. A third flow hole 5 is located inside the circular ball valve 301 and communicates with the second flow hole 4. A baffle 501 is fixedly installed inside the third flow hole 5. A through hole is located inside the baffle 501. A sealing ring 502 is fixedly installed on the baffle 501. One end of the movable rod 402 passes through the through hole and is fixedly connected to a sealing plug 503.

[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a sealing seat 2 is provided on the valve body 1, and a plurality of fixing bolts 201 are threadedly installed on the sealing seat 2. The plurality of fixing bolts 201 are distributed around the sealing seat 2. A valve stem 202 is rotatably installed on the sealing seat 2. One end of the valve stem 202 extends outside the sealing seat 2 and is fixedly installed with a handle 203. A limit rod 204 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the valve stem 202. A limit hole is opened at the top of the ball groove 3, and the limit rod 204 is adapted to the limit hole.

[0024] By rotating the handle 203, the valve stem 202 can be rotated, and then the valve stem 202 drives the limit rod 204 to rotate synchronously. The limit rod 204 controls the rotation of the round ball valve 301 to open and close, facilitating fluid flow and quick valve closure.

[0025] like Figure 3 As shown, the valve body 1 has first flow holes 302 on both sides, the first flow holes 302 communicate with the ball groove 3, and a valve seat sealing ring 303 is fixedly installed in the first flow holes 302. One side of the valve seat sealing ring 303 abuts against the round ball valve 301.

[0026] By incorporating a valve seat sealing ring 303, the sealing effect on both sides of the round ball valve 301 can be improved, preventing liquid leakage.

[0027] like Figure 4 As shown, the pusher plate 403 has an inner groove on its surface, and the inner groove is opposite to the fluid flow direction;

[0028] The inner groove on the surface of the pusher plate 403 is opposite to the direction of fluid flow, so the thrust generated on the pusher plate 403 during fluid flow can be enhanced.

[0029] like Figure 4 As shown, a round rod 6 is fixedly installed on the push plate 403, and the round rod 6 slides through the fixed rod 401 and is fixedly connected to the sealing plug 503;

[0030] By providing the circular rod 6, the push plate 403 can move the movable rod 402 in parallel, which can simultaneously drive the circular rod 6 to move, thereby preventing the movable rod 402 from rotating and providing stability for the movement of the movable rod 402.

[0031] like Figure 4 As shown, the inner wall of the sealing ring 502 has an inner chamfered surface, and the protruding end of the sealing plug 503 fits into the inner chamfered surface;

[0032] The inner chamfered surface on the inner wall of the sealing ring 502 allows the protruding end of the sealing plug 503 to fit easily onto the inner chamfered surface, thereby improving the sealing performance between the sealing ring 502 and the sealing plug 503.

[0033] The working principle of the ball valve with anti-reverse function provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0034] First step: When in use, it is connected to the fluid delivery pipeline through the flange connection pipe 101. Then, during the fluid flow, the flow thrust generated by the fluid is greater than the elastic force of the spring 404. Therefore, the fluid will push the push plate 403 to move. Then, the push plate 403 can drive the movable rod 402 to slide parallel on the fixed rod 401 and push the sealing plug 503 off the sealing ring 502. Then, the fluid flows out from the through hole on the baffle 501, so that the fluid flows normally.

[0035] The second step: When the fluid supply is cut off, the thrust generated by the fluid will be less than the elastic force of the spring 404. As a result, the spring 404 will return to its original state after being compressed, and release the elastic force to push the push plate 403 to move. Then, the push plate 403 will drive the movable rod 402 to return to its original position and slide, and re-insert the sealing plug 503 into the sealing ring 502 to seal, thereby preventing fluid backflow and realizing the fluid anti-reverse function.

[0036] It should be noted that the device structure and accompanying drawings of this utility model mainly describe the principle of this utility model. In terms of the technical aspects of this design principle, the setting of the power mechanism, power supply system and control system of the device is not fully described. However, under the premise that those skilled in the art understand the principle of the above utility model, the specific details of its power mechanism, power supply system and control system can be clearly understood. The control method in the application document is automatic control through a controller. The control circuit of the controller can be implemented by those skilled in the art through simple programming.
