[0028] The bottom valve includes a valve body 1, a valve core 2, a connecting bolt 3, a nut 4, and a spring 5;
[0029] The valve body 1 and the valve core 2 are connected by a connecting bolt 3. The spring 5 is sleeved on the connecting bolt 3, and the bottom end of the spring 5 is placed on the upper end of the sealing joint 103 of the valve body 1 and compressed by the nut 4.
[0030] In a preferred embodiment, one end of the connecting bolt 3 is fixedly connected to the valve core 2, and the other end passes through the bottom of the valve body 1 and is connected to the nut 4; that is, the connecting bolt 3 passes through the sealing joint 103 of the valve body 1 and is movably connected to the valve core 2 by the spring 5.
[0031] Specifically, the connecting bolts 3 are evenly distributed around the outside of the valve body 101.
[0032] The valve body 1 includes a valve body 101 and a sealing joint 103, wherein the sealing joint 103 is located on the outer side of the bottom of the valve body 101;
[0033] like Figure 2 As shown, the valve core 2 includes a core body 201, a sealing assembly 202, and a sealing pressure member 203; the sealing assembly 202 is sleeved on the core body 201 and surrounds the inner side of the connecting bolt 3, and the sealing pressure member 203 is fixedly pressed on the sealing assembly 202.
[0034] Specifically, the sealing pressure member 203 fixes the sealing assembly 202 onto the valve core 2 body by fixing bolts.

When the spring 5 is compressed, the valve core 2 (bottom valve plate) opens under the weight of the submersible pump, connecting the submersible pump to the storage tank. The pump body and the bottom valve body 1 are sealed using a planar and conical structure, isolating the pump well from the storage tank and ensuring the efficient operation of the submersible pump. Specifically, the planar and conical structure means that the upper surface of the valve core 2 is in planar contact with the inlet surface of the submersible pump, and the conical surface of the valve body 1 is sealed with the conical surface on the inlet volute of the submersible pump.
[0039] When the submersible pump needs maintenance, lifting the pump causes spring 5 to extend, and the bottom valve plate closes under the elastic force of the stainless steel spring 5, sealing and isolating the pump well from the storage tank. This effectively prevents the medium inside the storage tank from entering the pump well and leaking into the environment, ensuring the safety of the storage tank site during submersible pump maintenance.

[0044] Specifically, the connecting bolts 3 are evenly distributed around the outside of the valve body 101.
[0045] The valve body 1 includes a valve body 101 and a sealing joint 103, wherein the sealing joint 103 is located on the outer side of the bottom of the valve body 101;

[0047] Specifically, the sealing pressure member 203 fixes the sealing assembly 202 onto the valve core 2 body by fixing bolts.

[0049] A pin 6 is also fixedly connected to the upper side of the connecting bolt 3. The axis of the pin 6 is perpendicular to the axis of the connecting bolt 3, and the pin 6 passes through the anti-pin protrusions 7.
[0050] As a preferred embodiment, combined with Figure 2 As shown, the valve core 2 also includes a balance valve 8, which is located on one side of the flow channel of the core body 201.
[0051] In a preferred embodiment, the valve body 101 has several bolt through holes 9 on its top sealing surface.
[0052] Based on the above-mentioned bottom valve structure, after the submersible pump is installed, it is placed above the valve core 2. When the spring 5 is compressed, the valve core 2 (bottom valve plate) opens under the weight of the submersible pump, connecting the submersible pump to the storage tank. The pump body and the bottom valve body 1 are sealed using a planar and conical structure, isolating the pump well from the storage tank and ensuring the efficient operation of the submersible pump. Specifically, the planar and conical structure means that the upper surface of the valve core 2 is in planar contact with the inlet surface of the submersible pump, and the conical surface of the valve body 1 is sealed with the conical surface on the inlet volute of the submersible pump.
[0053] When the submersible pump needs maintenance, lifting the pump causes spring 5 to extend, and the bottom valve plate closes under the elastic force of the stainless steel spring 5, sealing and isolating the pump well from the storage tank. This effectively prevents the medium inside the storage tank from entering the pump well and leaking into the environment, ensuring the safety of the storage tank site during submersible pump maintenance.

[0056] The bottom valve includes a valve body 1, a valve core 2, a connecting bolt 3, a nut 4, and a spring 5;
[0057] The valve body 1 and the valve core 2 are fixedly connected by a connecting bolt 3, and the spring 5 is sleeved on the connecting bolt 3 and compressed by a nut 4.
[0058] Specifically, the connecting bolts 3 are evenly distributed around the outside of the valve body 101.
[0059] The valve body 1 includes a valve body 101 and a sealing joint 103, wherein the sealing joint 103 is located on the outer side of the bottom of the valve body 101;

[0063] A pin 6 is also fixedly connected to the upper side of the connecting bolt 3. The axis of the pin 6 is perpendicular to the axis of the connecting bolt 3, and the pin 6 passes through the anti-pin protrusions 7.

The pump body and the bottom valve body 1 are sealed using a planar and conical structure, isolating the pump well from the storage tank and ensuring the efficient operation of the submersible pump. Specifically, the planar and conical structure means that the upper surface of the valve core 2 is in planar contact with the inlet surface of the submersible pump, and the conical surface of the valve body 1 is sealed with the conical surface on the inlet volute of the submersible pump.
[0069] When the submersible pump needs maintenance, lifting the pump causes spring 5 to extend, and the bottom valve plate closes under the elastic force of the stainless steel spring 5, sealing and isolating the pump well from the storage tank.
