[0021] The following is a detailed description of the reversing valve for the vacuum feeder provided in the embodiments of this utility model, with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] Please see Figure 1 The reversing valve for the vacuum feeder provided in this embodiment includes: a valve body 1, on which a connecting pipe 11, a three-way pipe 12, and an intermediate pipe 13 are formed. The connecting pipe 11 and the three-way pipe 12 are arranged off-axis and connected to each other through the intermediate pipe 13. The intermediate pipe 13 is perpendicular to both the connecting pipe 11 and the three-way pipe 12. The connecting pipe 11 is used to connect to the negative pressure port of the vacuum feeder. The first port of the three-way pipe 12 is used to connect to a negative pressure source (e.g., a vacuum pump), and the second port of the three-way pipe 12 is used to connect in series with the next reversing valve or to an exhaust pipe; a valve core 2, which is laterally movable and disposed within the intermediate pipe 13 of the valve body 1; a fixed end cap 3; and a pressure relief valve. End caps 4 are respectively set at both ends of the intermediate tube 13, with the fixed end cap 3 near the side of the three-way tube 12 and the pressure relief end cap 4 near the side of the connecting tube 11; the drive mechanism 5 is fixed on the fixed end cap 3, and the actuating end of the drive mechanism 5 is connected to the valve core 2, which is used to drive the valve core 2 to move laterally back and forth in the intermediate tube 13. When the valve core 2 is in the first limit position (i.e., near the side of the fixed end cap 3), the connecting tube 11 is connected to the three-way tube 12, and the vacuum feeder is negative pressure feeding at this time. When the valve core 2 is in the second limit position (i.e., near the side of the pressure relief end cap 4), the connection between the connecting tube 11 and the three-way tube 12 is cut off, and the vacuum feeder is normal pressure discharging at this time.

[0023] In the above embodiment, preferably, a pressure relief valve 6 is also provided inside the intermediate tube 13. The pressure relief valve 6 is fixed on the pressure relief end cover 4, and the pressure relief valve 6 is a mechanical automatic pressure relief valve. The top core of the pressure relief valve 6 is connected to the valve core 2 through the ejector pin 7. When the valve core 2 is in the second limit position, the ejector pin 7 pushes the top core of the pressure relief valve 6 to the open state, thereby connecting the pressure relief valve 6 to the atmosphere, thus ensuring the normal pressure state when the vacuum feeder is not working, facilitating material conveying; when the valve core 2 is in the first limit position, the top core of the pressure relief valve 6 is reset under the action of the spring, achieving the effect of sealing the valve body 1.

[0024] In the above embodiments, preferably, both the fixed end cap 3 and the pressure relief end cap 4 are pressed and sealed onto the intermediate tube 13 by screws or bolts, etc., using a conventional structure for fixing, reducing maintenance costs. At the same time, their internal O-ring sealing treatment ensures the sealing effect and reduces pressure loss.

[0025] In the above embodiments, preferably, the valve core 2 is made of polyurethane material. Polyurethane material has a certain hardness and wear resistance, which can not only effectively seal the valve body 1, but also has stable chemical properties and a long service life.

[0026] In the above embodiment, preferably, the driving mechanism 5 adopts a linear cylinder, which is low in cost, various in specifications and convenient to purchase.

[0027] The reversing valve for the vacuum feeding machine has the following working principle when in use:

[0028] In the negative pressure feeding stage, the driving mechanism 5 pushes the valve core 2 to move to the first limit position, so that the connecting pipe 11 on the valve body 1 is in communication with the negative pressure source, the vacuum feeding machine generates negative pressure, and under the action of the pressure difference, the material is sucked into the bin of the vacuum feeding machine.

[0029] When the feeding is completed and the material needs to be discharged, the driving mechanism 5 acts again to push the valve core 2 to move to the second limit position, thereby cutting off the communication between the negative pressure source and the connecting pipe 11, and at the same time, the pressure relief valve 6 is in communication with the external atmosphere, so that the bin of the vacuum feeding machine is in a normal pressure state, and the material in the bin is discharged under the action of gravity.

[0030] Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, but not to limit them; although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that: it can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or make equivalent replacement to part or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, and they should be covered in the scope of the claims and the specification of the present application. Especially, as long as there is no structural conflict, each technical feature mentioned in each embodiment can be combined in any way. The present application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the text, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
