DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] The following will be combined with the drawings Figures 1-2 The present application is further described in detail.

[0032] The embodiment of the utility model discloses a vacuum breaking combined valve, refer to Figure 1 And Figure 2 , including valve body 1, guide sleeve 2, elastic part 3, valve disc 4 and one -way exhaust component 5, the channel is formed in valve body 1, and the channel is communicated with pipeline, guide sleeve 2 is fixedly installed in valve body 1, and the air inlet hole 21 for going into air to valve body 1 is set up on guide sleeve 2, and valve disc 4 is located in valve body 1 and with guide sleeve 2 one end abuts to carry out the plugging of air inlet hole 21, and valve stem 41 is fixedly installed on valve disc 4, and valve stem 41 passes through guide sleeve 2 and with guide sleeve 2 sliding fit, elastic part 3 is set on valve stem 41, and elastic part 3 one end with guide sleeve 2 top abuts, and the other end acts on valve stem 41, one side of valve body 1 is installed with exhaust pipe 7, and exhaust pipe 7 is communicated with valve body 1, and one -way exhaust component 5 is installed on exhaust pipe 7, when the medium pressure in valve body 1 is too high, the medium one -way exhaust component 5 is discharged.

[0033] When the pressure in pipeline is negative pressure, under the action of pressure difference, negative pressure makes valve disc 4 adsorb to the one end of pipeline, and valve disc 4 drives valve stem 41 to move, so that elastic part 3 is further compressed, so that valve disc 4 and guide sleeve 2 are in contact, and the spacing between the two increases, and the outside air enters into pipeline from air inlet hole 21 to destroy the vacuum environment of pipeline. When the internal and external air pressure of valve body 1 tends to be balanced, elastic part 3 is elongated and pushes valve disc 4 to abut to guide sleeve 2, and air inlet hole 21 is blocked.

[0034] When the pressure in pipeline is too large, valve disc 4 is firmly pushed by high pressure and covers guide sleeve 2, and high-pressure gas enters one-way exhaust component 5 from exhaust pipe 7 and is discharged from one-way exhaust component 5, realizing the release of the overhigh pressure in pipeline and avoiding the damage of pipeline due to the overhigh internal pressure.

[0035] Refer to Figure 1 Valve stem 41 is also sleeved with pressing plate 8, and pressing plate 8 is located at the end of elastic part 3 away from guide sleeve 2, and pressing plate 8 and elastic part 3 abut; the end of valve stem 41 away from valve disc 4 is formed with a thread, and the end of pressing plate 8 away from elastic part 3 is provided with a nut, and the nut is two. Valve stem 41 is threadedly connected with the nut, and the nut abuts against pressing plate 8, and the nut is tightened to make pressing plate 8 and elastic part 3 firmly abut.

[0036] The end of guide sleeve 2 close to valve disc 4 is provided with sealing ring 9, and sealing ring 9 abuts against valve disc 4; in the working process of the valve, sealing ring 9 improves the sealing performance of valve disc 4 and guide sleeve 2 in the abutting state, which can effectively prevent the medium from passing through the gap between guide sleeve 2 and valve disc 4.

[0037] Refer to Figure 1The valve body 1 is provided with an air inlet filter assembly 6, which comprises a filter screen 61 and a cover body 62. The filter screen 61 is in the shape of a circular ring and is arranged in the cover body 62. The cover body 62 is arranged on the top of the valve body 1 and is provided with an air inlet port 621. When the pipeline is under negative pressure, external air enters the cover body 62 through the air inlet port 621, is filtered by the filter screen 61, then passes through the air inlet hole 21 of the guide sleeve 2 and finally enters the pipeline through the channel of the valve body 1 to destroy the vacuum environment in the pipeline. The filter screen 61 can reduce equipment failure caused by dust and ensure stable operation.

[0038] The valve body 1 is provided with an air inlet filter assembly 6, which comprises a filter screen 61 and a cover body 62. The filter screen 61 is in the shape of a circular ring and is arranged in the cover body 62. The cover body 62 is arranged on the top of the valve body 1 and is provided with an air inlet port 621. When the pipeline is under negative pressure, external air enters the cover body 62 through the air inlet port 621, is filtered by the filter screen 61, then passes through the air inlet hole 21 of the guide sleeve 2 and finally enters the pipeline through the channel of the valve body 1 to destroy the vacuum environment in the pipeline. The filter screen 61 can reduce equipment failure caused by dust and ensure stable operation.

[0039] The valve body 1 is provided with an air inlet filter assembly 6, which comprises a filter screen 61 and a cover body 62. The filter screen 61 is in the shape of a circular ring and is arranged in the cover body 62. The cover body 62 is arranged on the top of the valve body 1 and is provided with an air inlet port 621. When the pipeline is under negative pressure, external air enters the cover body 62 through the air inlet port 621, is filtered by the filter screen 61, then passes through the air inlet hole 21 of the guide sleeve 2 and finally enters the pipeline through the channel of the valve body 1 to destroy the vacuum environment in the pipeline. The filter screen 61 can reduce equipment failure caused by dust and ensure stable operation.

[0040] Referring to Figure 1 The one-way air exhaust assembly 5 comprises an exhaust valve body 51, a valve core ball 52 and a protective cover 53. The exhaust valve body 51 is fixedly connected to the end of the exhaust pipe 7 away from the valve body 1 and is in communication with the exhaust pipe 7. The port of the exhaust pipe 7 in the exhaust valve body 51 is provided as an exhaust port 71. The valve core ball 52 is located in the exhaust valve body 51 and opposite to the exhaust port 71. The protective cover 53 is arranged on the top of the exhaust valve body 51 and is used for sealing the exhaust valve body 51. The protective cover 53 is fixedly connected to the exhaust valve body 51 by bolts and is provided with an exhaust hole 511.

[0041] When the pipeline is under negative pressure, the valve core ball 52 is adsorbed on the exhaust port 71 and blocks the exhaust port 71 to ensure that air can only enter the pipeline from the side of the air inlet filter assembly 6. When the pressure in the pipeline is within the normal requirement or use range, the valve core ball 52 will be stably dropped into the exhaust port 71 and block the exhaust port 71 by its own gravity. When the pressure in the pipeline is too large, high-pressure gas enters the exhaust valve body 51 through the exhaust pipe 7, the high-pressure gas pushes away the valve core ball 52 and finally is discharged from the exhaust hole 511.

[0042] The exhaust pipe 7 is provided with a ball valve switch 12, which is in an open state by default. When the ball valve switch 12 is opened, the medium will enter the exhaust pipe 7 and be discharged from the exhaust hole 511 on the exhaust valve body 51. When the exhaust valve body fails or the valve core ball cannot work normally, the medium may leak out through the exhaust pipe 7 and the exhaust valve body 51. At this time, the ball valve switch 12 is closed, so as to cut off the flow path of the medium, so as to facilitate timely maintenance and replacement.

[0043] The fixed support 10 is arranged on one end of the exhaust pipe 7 close to the exhaust valve body 51, and the fixed support 10 is arranged towards the valve body 1, and the fixed support 10 and the valve body 1 are bolted.

[0044] The implementation principle of the embodiment of the application is:

[0045] When the pipeline is in negative pressure, the pressure difference causes the valve disc 4 to be adsorbed to the pipeline end, drives the valve rod 41 to compress the elastic member 3, and causes the valve disc 4 to be separated from the guide sleeve 2, and the inlet hole 21 is opened. The outside air enters the inlet hole 621 of the air inlet filter assembly 6, is filtered through the filter screen 61, enters the pipeline through the inlet hole 21 and the valve body 1 channel, and destroys the vacuum environment.

[0046] When the internal and external air pressure is balanced, the elastic member 3 is elongated to push the valve disc 4 to block the inlet hole 21. When the pressure in the pipeline is too large, the valve disc 4 is pressed against the cover guide sleeve 2 by high pressure, and the high-pressure gas enters the one-way exhaust assembly 5 from the exhaust pipe 7.

[0047] When the pressure is large enough, the valve core ball 52 in the one-way exhaust assembly 5 is knocked off, the gas is discharged from the exhaust hole 511, the excessive high pressure is released, and the pipeline is protected.

[0048] The above are preferred embodiments of the application, and are not limited to the protection scope of the application. Therefore, equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, principle of the application should be covered within the protection scope of the application.
