Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of valve technology, and in particular to a fine-tuning slow-closing axial flow check valve. Background Technology
[0002] Existing axial flow check valves have a return spring on one side of the valve disc. The return spring contracts under fluid pressure, opening the valve disc and allowing fluid to flow from the inlet to the outlet. As the fluid pressure decreases, the return spring forces the valve disc to close automatically, preventing backflow. However, the spring force of the return spring can also cause significant pressure loss in the pipeline, and the opening force is difficult to control. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a finely tuned slow-closing axial flow check valve that reduces pipeline pressure loss and facilitates control of the opening force.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the fine-tuning slow-closing axial flow check valve of this utility model is as follows:
[0005] A fine-tuning, slow-closing axial flow check valve includes a valve body, a valve seat in the middle of the valve body, a valve disc on one side of the valve seat, a rear valve stem on one side of the valve disc, a rear valve sleeve fitted onto the outer side of the rear valve stem, the rear valve sleeve being fixedly connected to the valve body, a return spring fitted onto the outer side of the rear valve stem between the rear valve sleeve and the valve disc, the return spring driving the valve disc to block the valve seat, a front valve sleeve on the other side of the valve seat, the front valve sleeve being fixedly connected to the valve body, the front valve sleeve having a front pressure plate and a rear pressure plate, a buffer spring between the front and rear pressure plates, the valve disc having a front valve stem for pushing the rear pressure plate, an adjusting bolt threaded onto the front valve sleeve, the adjusting bolt pressing the front pressure plate and applying the spring force of the buffer spring to the rear pressure plate that is in contact with the front valve stem, the spring force of the buffer spring being less than the spring force of the return spring.
[0006] Preferably, the front valve sleeve includes a front annular body fixed to the inner circumferential surface of the valve body. The front annular body is connected to a tube for accommodating the front and rear pressure plates and the buffer spring through a number of spaced front stiffeners. A plug is detachably connected to the side of the tube near the front pressure plate, and an adjusting bolt is threaded to the plug.
[0007] Preferably, a cover is detachably connected to the outside of the plug, and the cover is bullet-shaped.
[0008] Preferably, a limiting boss is provided on one side of the inner wall of the tube to prevent the rear pressure plate from popping out.
[0009] Preferably, the front valve stem is provided with a rubber pad that abuts against the rear pressure plate.
[0010] Preferably, the rear valve sleeve includes a rear annular body fixed to the inner circumferential surface of the valve body, and the rear annular body is connected to a guide sleeve that slides with the rear valve stem through a plurality of spaced rear stiffeners.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages:
[0012] When fluid flows through, the buffer spring provides assistance to push the valve disc, thereby reducing pressure loss in the pipeline. After flow interruption, the buffer spring provides resistance to slow the valve disc's closing speed, preventing water hammer and damage to the pipeline valve. Furthermore, the preload of the buffer spring can be adjusted by regulating the bolt feed rate according to operating conditions, allowing for more precise control of the valve disc's opening force to meet usage requirements.

[0018] The present invention will be further illustrated below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. After reading the present invention, any modifications of the present invention in various equivalent forms by those skilled in the art will fall within the scope defined by the appended claims.
[0019] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, a fine-tuning, slow-closing axial flow check valve includes a valve body 1, an integrally formed valve seat 11 in the middle of the valve body, a valve disc 2 installed on the right side of the valve seat, a sealing element 21 installed on the slope surface where the valve disc mates with the valve seat, a valve stem 22 integrally formed on the right end face of the valve disc, a rear valve sleeve 3 sleeved on the outer side of the rear valve stem, the rear valve sleeve including a rear annular body 31 fixed to the inner circumferential surface of the valve body, the rear annular body being connected to a guide sleeve 33 that slides with the rear valve stem through four spaced rear stiffeners 32, a return spring 4 sleeved on the outer side of the rear valve stem being installed between the guide sleeve and the valve disc, the return spring driving the valve disc to block the valve seat, a front valve sleeve 5 installed on the left side of the valve seat, the front valve sleeve including a front annular body 51 fixed to the inner circumferential surface of the valve body, the front annular body being connected to a pipe body 53 through four spaced front stiffeners 52, and a pipe body 53 being installed inside the pipe body. A front pressure plate 6 and a rear pressure plate 7 are installed, with a buffer spring 8 placed between them. A limiting boss 531 is integrally formed on the right inner wall of the pipe to prevent the rear pressure plate from popping out. A front valve stem 23 is integrally formed on the left side of the valve disc to push the rear pressure plate. A rubber pad 231 that abuts against the rear pressure plate is installed on the left end of the front valve stem. The rubber pad makes little noise when it abuts against the rear pressure plate. A plug 54 is detachably connected to the left side of the pipe. An adjusting bolt 9 passes through the center of the plug and is threaded to the plug. A retaining cover 55 is detachably connected to the outside of the plug. The retaining cover is bullet-shaped to prevent the fluid from directly scouring the adjusting bolt and causing it to loosen. The adjusting bolt squeezes the front pressure plate, which applies the spring force of the buffer spring to the rear pressure plate that is in contact with the rubber pad. The spring force of the buffer spring is less than that of the return spring.
[0020] The specific working process and principle of this utility model are as follows: According to the working conditions, the adjusting bolt is turned to change the compression length of the buffer spring, i.e., adjust the preload of the buffer spring. When fluid flows through, the buffer spring provides assistance to push the valve disc, allowing it to move smoothly to the right. The buffer spring extends, and the return spring is compressed. After the flow is cut off, the return spring extends, driving the valve disc to move to the left. During the compression process, the buffer spring provides resistance, slowing down the valve disc's closing speed and preventing water hammer damage to the pipeline valve. This utility model, by adding a buffer spring and adjusting its preload via the adjusting bolt, precisely controls the valve disc's opening force, reduces pipeline pressure loss, and effectively reduces the impact of water hammer. It has a simple structure and is easy to operate.
