Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pressure relief valve technology, specifically to a pressure relief valve for agricultural pumps with good sealing effect. Background Technology
[0002] A pressure relief valve is a fluid control device whose main function is to automatically open when the system pressure exceeds a set value, releasing excess medium pressure to ensure that the system pressure remains within a safe range. Its working principle is based on the pressure balance principle; when the system pressure rises to the set value, the valve disc automatically opens and releases pressure under pressure, overcoming resistance such as spring force or counterweight force.
[0003] Currently, spring-loaded pressure relief valves rely on the spring force to maintain the seal between the valve disc and the valve seat. When the internal system pressure of the agricultural pump exceeds the spring's set value, the valve disc is pushed open to release the pressure.
[0004] Existing agricultural pump sealing structures rely on valve core sealing. After long-term operation, the valve core wears down, and gaps easily form between the valve core and the valve body. These gaps can lead to leakage in the pressure relief valve, affecting its service life. Therefore, it is necessary to propose an agricultural pressure relief valve with good sealing performance, along with an automatic feeding and mixing device. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an agricultural pump pressure relief valve with good sealing effect, so as to solve the above-mentioned technical problems to a certain extent and improve the sealing performance of the valve core part of the pressure relief valve.

[0007] The valve housing is provided with a base inside, and the valve core includes a first step and a second step distributed from top to bottom. The top of the first step contacts the bottom of the spring, so that the upper end of the spring is pressed against the valve cover.
[0008] A first sealing element is fixedly provided at the bottom edge of the first step, and the bottom of the first sealing element contacts the upper end of the base. A second sealing element is fixedly provided at the bottom edge of the second step, and the bottom of the second sealing element contacts the inner bottom end of the base. The outer ring of the second step contacts the inner side of the base. A valve ball is fixedly provided at the middle part of the bottom of the second step, and the valve ball extends into the connecting pipe through the base.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: an agricultural pump pressure relief valve with good sealing effect, including a valve body 1, a valve cover 2, a spring 3, and a valve core 4. The valve cover 2 is fixedly installed on the top of the valve body 1, the spring 3 is vertically installed inside the valve body 1, a connecting pipe 12 is vertically connected to the bottom of the valve body 1, and a water outlet pipe 11 is horizontally connected to the outer wall of the valve body 1.
[0024] The valve housing 1 is provided with a base 6 inside. The valve core 4 includes a first step 41 and a second step 42 distributed from top to bottom. The top of the first step 41 contacts the bottom of the spring 3, so that the upper end of the spring 3 is pressed against the valve cover 2.
[0025] A first sealing element 5 is fixedly installed at the bottom edge of the first step 41, and the bottom of the first sealing element 5 contacts the upper end of the base 6. A second sealing element 8 is fixedly installed at the bottom edge of the second step 42, and the bottom of the second sealing element 8 contacts the inner bottom end of the base 6. The outer ring of the second step 42 contacts the inner side of the base 6. A valve ball 7 is fixedly installed at the middle part of the bottom of the second step 42, and the valve ball 7 extends into the connecting pipe 12 through the base 6.
[0026] When this pressure relief valve is in use, the valve core 4 is located at the bottom of the spring 3, and the valve body 1 is connected to the outlet ring of the agricultural pump via a threaded connection. When the water pressure in the agricultural pump pipeline exceeds the set value of the pressure relief valve, the valve core 4 is pushed to move inward, and the spring 3 is squeezed. When the ball valve below the valve core 4 moves to expose the gap and release the pressure, the excess water is discharged from the outlet pipe 11.
[0027] By setting the valve core 4 of this pressure relief valve into a stepped shape, dividing it into a first step 41 and a second step 42, a first sealing element 5 and a second sealing element are respectively set at the bottom of the first step 41 and the second step 42. The first sealing element 5 is set at the contact part between the first step 41 and the upper end of the inner base 6 of the valve body 1, and the second sealing element is set at the contact part between the second step 42 and the bottom inner side of the base 6. Through the stepped contact sealing form, the sealing area between the valve core 4 and the valve body 1 is increased, and the increased sealing material further improves the sealing effect between the valve core 4 and the valve body 1.
[0028] See Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the first seal 5 is annular in shape, the outer diameter of the first seal 5 is the same as the diameter of the first step 41, the inner ring of the first seal 5 contacts the outer ring of the second step 42, the second seal 8 is annular in shape, the outer diameter of the second seal 8 is the same as the outer diameter of the second step 42, the outer ring of the second seal 8 contacts the inner edge of the base 6, and the inner ring of the second seal 8 contacts the protruding edge of the valve ball 7.
[0029] The outer diameter of the first sealing element 5 is the same as the outer diameter of the first step 41. This avoids excessive friction between the edge of the first sealing element 5 and the inner wall of the valve body 1 while achieving a sealing effect. The first sealing element 5 is annular and fits well with the contact area between the first step 41 and the base 6, achieving a good sealing effect. The second sealing element 8 is also annular and fully seals the contact area between the second step 42 and the bottom inner side of the base 6.
[0030] See Figure 2 In some embodiments, the outer wall of the second step 42 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the valve housing 1, and a circular hole matching the valve ball 7 is opened in the middle part of the bottom of the base 6, with one end of the valve ball 7 tightly inserted into the circle.
[0031] The round hole at the bottom of the base 6 allows one end of the valve ball 7 to extend into the connecting pipe 12 through the base 6, so as to contact the internal pressure of the pump.
[0032] See Figure 2 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, both the first seal 5 and the second seal 8 are made of polytetrafluoroethylene or fluororubber.
[0033] The first seal 5 and the second seal 8 are made of polytetrafluoroethylene and fluororubber, respectively, which have good sealing performance and corrosion resistance, and are suitable for use in agricultural pumps.
