Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rescue equipment technology, specifically to an adjustable quantitative flow device for a positive pressure oxygen respirator. Background Technology
[0002] A publicly known positive-pressure oxygen respirator used for mine rescue, firefighting, and chemical protection is a closed-loop breathing system that isolates the user from the outside environment. It is protective equipment worn by people working or providing rescue in environments with toxic or harmful gases. Because it is isolated from the outside environment, the entire breathing system is a closed loop. During use, the CO2 exhaled by the human body reacts chemically with Ca(OH)2 in the purification canister and is then removed. Since the human body requires more than 21% oxygen to meet its physiological needs, an oxygen supply system must be included in the oxygen respirator.
[0003] Since oxygen respirators are used in high-risk situations, excessively high or low oxygen supply can cause discomfort and harm to the human body. Stable and appropriate oxygen supply is an important indicator of oxygen respirators. Currently, the flow device of the chamber-type oxygen respirator is prone to unstable flow or blockage due to impurities in the oxygen during long-term use. Utility Model Content

Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0018] refer to Figures 1 to 2 An adjustable metering flow device for a positive pressure oxygen respirator includes a metering valve body 1. A cavity 2 is radially formed on the inner side of the metering valve body 1. A metering valve stem 3 is disposed within the cavity 2. A protrusion 4 is located in the middle of the metering valve stem 3. A boss 5 is located at the lower part of the cavity 2. A first spring 6 is disposed between the protrusion 4 and the boss 5. The first spring 6 is sleeved on the metering valve stem 3. A metering valve plug 7 is also threadedly connected within the cavity 2. A metering valve 8 is located at the bottom of the metering valve plug 7. The top of the metering valve stem 3 passes sequentially through the metering valve 8 and the metering valve plug 7. A piston 9 is located above the metering valve plug 7. The piston 9 is in contact with the interior of the cavity 2. A second spring 13 is connected to the piston 9. An adjusting nut 14 is connected to the top of the second spring 13. The adjusting nut 14 is threadedly connected to the top of the metering valve body 1. A nozzle 15 is detachably connected to one side of the metering valve body 1. The metering valve 8 is connected to the nozzle 15 through a gas passage 16.
[0019] A first sealing ring 17 is provided between the metering valve stem 3 and the metering valve 8. A first annular groove 18 is provided inside the metering valve body 1. The first sealing ring 17 is placed in the first annular groove 18. A second sealing ring 19 is provided between the metering valve body 1 and the connector 15.
[0020] The piston 9 has a second annular groove 20 on its outside, and a third sealing ring 21 is provided in the second annular groove 20. The piston 9 has a through hole 22 on its top, and the second spring 13 extends into the through hole 22.

[0023] The bottom of the metering valve body 1 is connected to the pressure reducer.
[0024] Working principle: During operation, high-pressure oxygen is first reduced in pressure by a pressure reducer to form medium-pressure gas. The medium-pressure gas enters the metering valve body 1. Rotating the adjusting nut 11 causes the second spring 10 and piston 9 to move downward, pushing the metering valve rod 3 downward. This causes the protrusion 4 on the metering valve rod 3 to move away from the metering valve 8, creating a certain gap between the metering valve rod 3 and the metering valve 8. At this time, the gas enters the metering valve 8 and is output from the nozzle 12 through the gas channel 13. The flow rate can be adjusted according to the output demand.
