The large steel ball 20, the large check valve spring 12, and the check valve top 10 are installed in the cavity of the check valve seat 3. The check valve set screw 9 is threadedly connected to the check valve seat 3 (the check valve set screw 9 and the check valve seat 3 are mounted together). An oil passage gap is reserved between the check valve set screw 9 and the check valve top 10. The oil passage gap communicates with the through hole of the check valve set screw 9 and the cavity of the check valve seat 3.

[0031] Furthermore, such as Figure 2As shown, in this embodiment, the valve body includes a valve body 14, a small check spring 13, a small steel ball 21, and a valve seat 15. The small check spring 13 and the small steel ball 21 are sequentially installed in the cavity of the valve body 14.

[0035] Working principle:

[0036] The oil-gas mixing pump of this utility model is mounted on the oil tank through four mounting holes and sealing gaskets on the flange of the pump body 1. The part of the pump body above the flange is inside the oil tank and immersed in lubricating oil. Compressed air is introduced into the air inlet 4.1 of the mixing block 4. After being diverted by the valve body 14, part of it goes upward through the adapter 11 into the cavity of the pump body 1. The gas pushes the sealing bowl 18 downward, which drives the piston partition 6, the other sealing bowl 18, and the piston part to move downward. This pushes the lubricating oil that enters through the oil inlet 7.1 downward. The large steel ball 20 moves downward, and the lubricating oil enters the check valve seat 3. It continues to pass through the oil gaps on both sides of the check valve top 10. Pushing downwards, the small steel ball 21 moves downwards, and the lubricating oil enters the valve body. The other part of the diverted gas enters the valve body and mixes with the lubricating oil, atomizing the lubricating oil to form an oil-gas mixture, which is discharged through the outlet 4.2 of the mixing block 4. After the air inlet 4.1 stops intake, the small steel ball 21 is reset and sealed by the action of the small check valve spring 13, and the large steel ball 20 is reset and sealed by the action of the large check valve spring 12. The piston, sealing bowl 18, and piston partition 6 are reset by the action of the valve body spring 16. The above actions are repeated when the air is intermittently turned on and off. With the help of the pipeline and controller of the wheel flange lubrication device, the train wheels can be sprayed with lubricant according to the settings.

[0037] The above are specific embodiments of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto.
