DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the present application more clear, the technical scheme of the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in combination with the drawings of the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the described embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0022] Reference Figures 1-5As shown, this embodiment discloses a manual / electric dual-purpose shut-off valve core, which includes a valve cover 3. The valve cover 3 can seal with the valve body of the shut-off valve, thereby installing and fixing the device on the valve body of the shut-off valve. The valve cover 3 is provided with an upwardly extending valve stem sleeve 19. The valve stem sleeve 19 is provided with a valve stem 13. The valve stem 13 is provided with a sealing ring 23, so that the valve stem 13 and the valve stem sleeve 19 are rotatably sealed. The valve stem 13 is usually provided with a limit step 22 and a retaining spring 21 to ensure that the valve stem 13 cannot move inside the valve stem sleeve 19. The valve stem 13 moves downward, with its upper end extending above the valve stem sleeve 19. A sliding lifting rod 2 is defined within the valve cover 3, with a valve plug 1 fixed to its lower end. The lower end of the valve stem 13 extends into the lifting rod 2, and the two are threaded together. This structure is essentially the inherent structure of the valve core of an existing gate valve. Based on this structure, when the valve stem 13 is rotated, it drives the lifting rod 2 to move up and down. The lifting rod 2 adjusts the position of the valve plug 1 within the valve body by moving up and down, thereby controlling the working state of the gate valve. A vertically extending drive column 17 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the valve stem 13. A driven gear 4 and a handle 5 are fitted on the drive column 17, which can slide up and down along it but cannot rotate relative to it. The handle 5 is located above the driven gear 4. A top cap 6 is fixed to the upper end of the drive column 17 to prevent the handle 5 from slipping off its upper end. A guide ring 10 is fixedly connected to the lower side of the driven gear 4. The guide ring 10 is fitted on the valve stem 13 and can move up and down along the valve stem 13 and can rotate relative to it. A return spring 11 is fitted on the valve stem 13 to drive the guide ring 10 to move upward. The central axes of the driven gear 4, the guide ring 10 and the valve stem 13 coincide. A motor device 7 is fixed above the valve cover 3. The motor device 7 integrates a remote control module. A drive gear 12 is fixed on the output shaft of the motor device 7. The drive gear 12 meshes with the driven gear 4.

[0023] like Figure 6 As shown, when the handle 5 is pressed down, the driven gear 4 is driven by the handle 5 to overcome the thrust of the return spring 11 and move downward, eventually moving from the drive column 17 to the valve stem 13. During this process, the driven gear 4 and the drive gear 12 remain engaged. When the handle 5 is stopped, the return spring 11 applies an upward thrust to the guide ring 10, causing the driven gear 4 and the handle 5 to move upward and return to the initial position.

[0024] When the hand motor dual-purpose stop valve core is implemented, the motor device 7 can select the intelligent motor assembly with remote communication function commonly used in the prior art, so as to be adapted with mobile phones, Internet of Things boxes and other control devices, and the working state of the motor device 7 is adjusted and controlled, and the automatic adjustment and control of the working state of the stop valve are realized. Specifically, when the motor device 7 operates according to the instruction, the transmission is performed through the driving gear 12, the driven gear 4 and the driving column 17, the valve rod 13 is driven to rotate in a predetermined direction, the position of the valve plug 1 is adjusted up and down, and finally the automatic adjustment of the working state of the stop valve such as opening, closing and opening degree is realized.

[0025] Therefore, the hand motor dual-purpose stop valve core of the present application overcomes the disadvantage that the existing stop valve can only adjust the working state manually, and can bring more convenience and intelligent experience to people's daily life. For example, when adjusting the working state of the stop valve, it is not necessary to go to the installation position of the stop valve, and the operation is more convenient and fast. For example, when going out, the water supply pipeline can be closed at any time and anywhere, effectively preventing the occurrence of accidents such as water pipe rupture and leakage, and improving safety. For example, a water leakage sensor can be installed in an area where water leakage is likely to occur, and a feedback mechanism is established between the water leakage sensor and the motor device. In the event of water leakage, the water path is automatically closed to stop the loss in time.

[0026] In addition, the hand motor dual-purpose stop valve core retains the manual adjustment function to ensure the adjustability of the working state of the stop valve in actual application. Specifically, as shown in Figure 6 , when manually adjusting, the handle 5 is pressed downward to drive the driven gear 4 to move downward, so that the driven gear 4 moves downward from the driving column 17 to the valve rod 13. Thereafter, rotating the handle 5 can drive the valve rod 13 to rotate to realize manual adjustment of the working state of the stop valve. In this process, since the driven gear 4 is located on the valve rod 13, the two allow relative rotation, so the driven gear 4, the driving gear and the motor device do not hinder the rotation of the valve rod 13.

[0027] Further, as shown in Figures 3-6 , the cross section of the driving column 17 is square, and the side length of the square is equal to the outer diameter of the valve rod 13. Therefore, the movement of the driven gear 4 between the driving column 17 and the valve rod 13 is smoother, which is also conducive to improving the cooperation stability of the above-mentioned components.

[0028] Further, as shown in Figures 1-3 , the valve rod sleeve 19 is fixedly connected with a motor seat 9, and the motor device 7 is fixed on the motor seat 9, so that the motor device 7 and other components are designed in a split type, which is convenient for assembly during production and processing, and is also conducive to later maintenance and repair. After the motor seat 9, the motor device 7 and the driving gear 12 are removed, the remaining part can be used as the existing stop valve core.

[0029] Further, as shown in Figure 3 , Figure 4 , the upper end of the valve stem 13 is provided with a square head 18, a screw hole 20 is formed in the upper end face of the square head 18, a square hole 14 cooperating with the square head 18 is formed in the driving column 17, the top cap 6 is fixed with a downward extending screw rod 16, the lower end of the screw rod 16 is threadedly connected with the screw hole 20; generally, the square head 18 and the screw hole 20 in the upper end thereof are inherent parts of the existing stop valve spool, when the driving column 17 adopts this design, the structure of the stop valve spool required by the utility model can be obtained by simple assembly improvement based on the existing stop valve spool, the implementation is easier, and the processing cost is also lower.

[0030] Further, as shown in Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , the rotating handle 5 is fixed with a sliding sleeve 15, the sliding sleeve 15 is in sliding cooperation with the driving column 17, and the lower end of the sliding sleeve 15 abuts against the driven gear 4; thus, the setting of the sliding sleeve 15 can improve the cooperation stability of the rotating handle 5 and the driving column 17 on one hand, and on the other hand, the main body part of the rotating handle 5 and the driven gear 4 are kept a certain spacing in the up-down direction, so as to ensure that there is no spatial obstacle between the rotating handle 5 and the driving gear 12 when the rotating handle 5 is pressed to drive the driven gear 4 to be separated from the driving column 17.

[0031] Further, as shown in Figure 1 , the motor device 7 is provided with an adjusting key 8, so as to further improve the use flexibility.
