In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish in the description, and have no special meaning.

[0034] The present embodiment provides a handle-free safety valve, hereinafter referred to as a safety valve, which is applied to a fluid medium system and opens when the pressure of the fluid medium exceeds a preset pressure value, can discharge the fluid medium in the fluid system outward, reduce the pressure in the fluid system, and protect the safe operation of equipment and the safety of personnel.

[0035] In the present embodiment, the safety valve is applied to pressure control of a wall-hanging stove heating system. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the safety valve can also be applied to other liquid pressure control environments such as urban water networks, musical fountains, industrial equipment, etc., as long as it can achieve safe control of the pressure of the fluid medium.

[0036] Specifically, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the handle-free safety valve comprises a valve body 1, a valve cover 2, a sealing assembly 3, and an elastic member 4, the valve body 1 is provided with an inner cavity 11 and a pressure relief cavity 12 communicating with the inner cavity 11, the valve cover 2 is connected to one end of the valve body 1, the sealing assembly 3 is arranged in the valve body 1 and can move relative to the valve body 1 to control the opening and closing of the inner cavity 11 and the pressure relief cavity 12, one end of the sealing assembly 3 can seal the outlet of the inner cavity 11, and the other end is a free end 311, one end of the elastic member 4 abuts against the sealing assembly 3, and the other end abuts against the valve cover 2, and the elastic member 4 is used to provide a preset pressure value by relying on its elastic deformation.

[0037] When the safety valve is in a closed state, one end of the sealing assembly 3 is sealed under the elastic force of the elastic member 4, so that the inner cavity 11 and the pressure relief cavity 12 of the valve body 1 are isolated from each other; when the pressure of the fluid medium exceeds the preset pressure value, the sealing assembly 3 is pushed to move upward against the elastic force of the elastic member 4, so that the inner cavity 11 and the pressure relief cavity 12 of the valve body 1 are in communication with each other, the fluid medium flows through the inner cavity 11 to the pressure relief cavity 12, and flows outwards through the pressure relief cavity 12, realizing the pressure relief process.

[0038] In the prior art, the top end of the sealing assembly 3 protrudes out of the valve cover 2 and is connected with a handle, and manual pressure relief can be achieved through the handle. However, if after assembly, after-sales maintenance is required, the handle of the safety valve interferes with the water pump and the expansion tank, which is not convenient for maintenance. In order to solve the above problems, the safety valve provided in the embodiment cancels the setting of the handle, sets the top end of the sealing assembly 3 as a free end 311, and shortens the length of the free end 311 protruding out of the valve cover 2, so as to miniaturize the safety valve, facilitate after-sales maintenance, reduce the assembly process and direct cost of the product, and improve market competitiveness. It should be noted that manual pressure relief is used only when the automatic pressure relief function of the safety valve fails, and manual pressure relief needs to be disassembled and maintained. Therefore, manual pressure relief is rarely used in actual use. Although the safety valve provided in the embodiment cancels the setting of the handle, it basically has no effect, and can be directly disassembled and maintained or replaced if the automatic pressure relief fails.

[0039] The elastic member 4 has a deformation amount, which can apply the elastic force of the elastic member 4 to the sealing assembly 3 and provide a preset pressure value for the safety valve. In the present embodiment, the elastic member 4 can be selected as a spring. In other embodiments, the elastic member 4 can also be made of other types of elastic bodies such as rubber columns.

[0040] Further, as shown in Figure 2 , the valve body 1 is also provided with a mounting cavity 13 for mounting the sealing assembly 3. In the present embodiment, the mounting cavity 13 is coaxially and communicatively arranged with the inner cavity 11, and the inner cavity 11 is vertically arranged with the pressure relief cavity 12. In other embodiments, the mounting cavity 13 and the inner cavity 11, and the inner cavity 11 and the pressure relief cavity 12 can also be communicatively arranged at other angles, as long as they can achieve the pressure relief process, which is not specifically limited here.

[0041] Specifically, as shown in Figure 2 , the sealing assembly 3 includes a sealing seat 31 and a sealing member 32. The sealing member 32 is connected to the bottom of the sealing seat 31, and the sealing member 32 can be sealed to the outlet of the inner cavity 11. The end of the sealing seat 31 away from the sealing member 32 is a free end 311 and is provided through the valve cover 2. The sealing member 32 is used to seal the inner cavity 11, and the sealing seat 31 is used to connect and drive the sealing member 32 to move. The sealing member 32 has elasticity and can be made of rubber material. The sealing member 32 is generally bowl-shaped, one end of which is fixed in the end face under the extrusion and fixation of the valve body 1 and the fixing member, and the other end is fixedly connected with the sealing seat 31. The sealing member 32 is sleeved outside the sealing seat 31, and the part of the sealing member 32 sleeved on the sealing seat 31 can be deformed under the driving of the sealing seat 31, so as to realize the mutual isolation or communication of the inner cavity 11 and the pressure relief cavity 12.

[0042] In the embodiment, the sealing seat 31 and the sealing member 32 are separated from each other, and are two components. The sealing member 32 is fixedly connected to the sealing seat 31 by means of glue fixing. In other alternative embodiments, the sealing member 32 can also be fixedly connected to the sealing seat 31 by means of riveting, vacuum adsorption or other means. In other alternative embodiments, the sealing seat 31 and the sealing member 32 can also be integrally formed.

[0043] As shown in Figure 2 , the sealing seat 31 is provided with an inner hole 312. By providing the inner hole 312 in the sealing seat 31, the weight of the sealing seat 31 can be reduced, a rapid and stable pressure relief process can be achieved, and material costs can be saved.

[0044] Further, the inner hole 312 extends through the sealing seat 31 in the axial direction away from one end of the free end 311, and the free end 311 is closed. That is, the inner hole 312 does not extend through the free end 311. By closing the free end 311, the inner hole 312 can be blocked to prevent dirt from entering the inner hole 312 and corroding the sealing member 32.

[0045] As shown in Figure 2 , the top end of the valve cover 2 is provided with a through hole 21, and the sealing seat 31 comprises a first guide portion 313. The bottom end of the first guide portion 313 is connected to the sealing member 32, and the top end of the first guide portion 313 is the free end 311 and is arranged in the through hole 21. When the sealing seat 31 moves up and down, the first guide portion 313 and the through hole 21 are in sliding fit, which plays a role of movement guide, so that the sealing seat 31 can only move in the axial direction, ensuring smooth movement of the sealing seat 31 and achieving rapid and stable pressure relief.

[0046] In an alternative embodiment, when the safety valve is in an open state, the free end 311 is arranged in the through hole 21 but does not exceed the upper end surface of the valve cover 2. In another alternative embodiment, when the safety valve is in an open state, the free end 311 can also be arranged in the through hole 21 and slightly higher than the upper end surface of the valve cover 2.

[0047] Further, the sealing seat 31 further comprises a second guide portion 314, and the second guide portion 314 is annularly arranged on the side of the first guide portion 313. The second guide portion 314 and the inner cavity 11 of the valve cover 2 are in sliding fit. When the sealing seat 31 moves up and down, the second guide portion 314 and the inner cavity 11 of the valve cover 2 are in sliding fit, which also plays a role of movement guide, so that the sealing seat 31 can only move in the axial direction, further ensuring smooth movement of the sealing seat 31 and achieving rapid and stable pressure relief.

[0048] In the embodiment, as shown in Figure 2As shown, the sealing seat 31 is provided with a second accommodating groove 315 which is circumferentially arranged in the sealing seat 31, the second accommodating groove 315 is located between the first guide part 313 and the second guide part 314, the elastic member 4 is sleeved on the first guide part 313, and the bottom end of the elastic member 4 is accommodated in the second accommodating groove 315 and abuts against the groove bottom of the second accommodating groove 315. In this way, a part of the bottom end of the elastic member 4 is located in the second accommodating groove 315, and thus the length of the part of the elastic member 4 which is located outside the second accommodating groove 315 is shortened correspondingly, so that the design length of the valve cover 2 can be reduced, and the entire safety valve is more miniaturized, which is beneficial to cost reduction and installation of the product.

[0049] Further, as shown, Figure 2 the valve cover 2 is provided with a first accommodating groove 22, and the end of the elastic member 4 which is away from the sealing assembly 3 is accommodated in the first accommodating groove 22. In this way, a part of the top end of the elastic member 4 is located in the first accommodating groove 22, and thus the length of the part of the elastic member 4 which is located outside the first accommodating groove 22 and the second accommodating groove 315 is further shortened, so that the design length of the valve cover 2 is further reduced, and the entire safety valve is more miniaturized, which is beneficial to cost reduction and installation of the product.

[0050] Optionally, in the embodiment, the inner wall of one end of the valve body 1 is provided with an internal thread, the outer periphery of the valve cover 2 is provided with an external thread, and the valve cover 2 is threadedly connected with the valve body 1 through the external thread and the internal thread, so as to realize the close connection between the valve cover 2 and the valve body 1. In other embodiments, the valve cover 2 and the valve body 1 can also be fixed with each other by using other connection modes such as welding, check ring connection, riveting, glue fixing and the like, which are not specifically limited here.

[0051] Obviously, the above embodiments of the utility model are only examples for clearly illustrating the utility model, and are not a limitation on the embodiments of the utility model. For ordinary skilled in the art, various obvious changes, re-adjustment and replacement can be made without departing from the protection scope of the utility model.
