Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to a magneto-rheological valve, especially a double-coil magneto-rheological valve with spiral liquid flow channel. BACKGROUND

[0002] Magneto-rheological fluid is an intelligent material with excellent performance and wide application. Its most important property is that it can change from fluid state to solid-like state under the action of magnetic field, and it can restore to fluid state when the magnetic field is removed. The conversion process is in milliseconds. Magneto-rheological valve is a typical application of magneto-rheological fluid as medium. By adjusting and controlling the internal magnetic field of the external current, the shear stress of magneto-rheological fluid changes, and then controllable pressure drop and flow are obtained. Compared with traditional hydraulic control valve, magneto-rheological valve has no relative moving parts, and has the advantages of simple structure, stable operation, fast response speed, continuous controllable pressure drop performance, etc., and has good application prospect.

[0003] The core working area of magneto-rheological valve is located in the liquid flow channel where the magneto-rheological fluid flows. The common structures are divided into three types: axial annular type, radial disc type and axial annular-radial disc hybrid type. The axial annular type liquid flow channel has simple structure and strong anti-clogging ability, but the pressure drop is small. The latter two can achieve larger pressure drop, but have the defects of complex structure and easy clogging. The problems of small inlet and outlet pressure drop, narrow adjustment range and relatively complex structure of magneto-rheological valve limit its further application. For the magneto-rheological valve with axial annular liquid flow channel, the traditional method to increase the inlet and outlet pressure drop is to increase the length of the liquid flow channel, which will lead to the increase of the volume of the magneto-rheological valve, limiting the application scene. In addition, the magnetic field utilization rate of the traditional single-coil structure magneto-rheological valve is low, which cannot fully play its role.

[0004] Based on this, the utility model provides a double-coil magneto-rheological valve with spiral liquid flow channel, which can obtain larger controllable pressure drop in smaller volume, compact structure and lower power. SUMMARY

[0005] In order to overcome the problems of the magnetorheological valve described in the background art and further meet the practical use requirements of the magnetorheological valve, the utility model provides a double-coil type magnetorheological valve with a spiral liquid flow channel. The magnetorheological valve gap fits the magnetic guide sleeve and the winding sleeve, and an axial annular liquid flow channel is formed between the two. A spiral baffle is arranged on the magnetic guide sleeve. The spiral baffle is in the shape of a cylindrical spiral with a certain spiral angle. The spiral baffle hinders the axial flow of the magnetorheological fluid. The magnetorheological fluid flows along the spiral baffle in a spiral manner, so that the axial annular liquid flow channel becomes a spiral liquid flow channel. The arrangement effectively lengthens the length of the liquid flow channel and effectively improves the pressure drop volume ratio of the magnetorheological valve without increasing the axial size. In addition, two groups of excitation coils with alternating polarities are uniformly arranged in the magnetorheological valve. The magnetic induction intensity between the two groups of excitation coils is strengthened by mutual superposition. A magnetic shielding ring is arranged in the middle of the two groups of excitation coils. The valve body, the winding sleeve and the magnetic guide sleeve are made of magnetic conductive material, and the valve core, the spiral baffle, the magnetic shielding ring and the left and right baffles are made of non-magnetic conductive material. When current is applied to the excitation coil, the magnetic lines of force generated by the excitation coil are twisted by the magnetic shielding ring, and pass through the entire spiral liquid flow channel vertically, so that a full-channel spiral effective damping gap is formed in the magnetorheological valve, and the utilization rate of the magnetic field is improved. Compared with the traditional magnetorheological valve, the valve has the advantages of simple structure, large output pressure drop, stable operation and less prone to blockage, and is more suitable for use in hydraulic control systems with wide pressure regulation range.

The wire of excitation coil I (12) is connected with excitation coil II (13) through the lead groove on winding sleeve II (6), and the wire of excitation coil I (12) and excitation coil II (13) is led out through the lead hole of right baffle (10) and the lead hole of right end cover (9).

[0017] As Figure 2 The utility model discloses a liquid flow channel schematic diagram. Magnetic sleeve (14), spiral baffle (11) and winding sleeve I (4), magnetic ring I (5), winding sleeve II (6), magnetic ring II (7) and winding sleeve III (8) form spiral liquid flow channel (16). Magnetorheological fluid can flow in through the inlet on left end cover (1), pass through spiral liquid flow channel (16) and flow out through the outlet on right end cover (9).

[0018] As Figure 3 The utility model discloses a spiral baffle and magnetic sleeve three-dimensional structure schematic diagram. Spiral baffle (11) is the cylindrical spiral of having certain spiral angle, and the circumferential inner surface of spiral baffle (11) is in interference fit with the circumferential outer surface of magnetic sleeve (14) and is fixedly connected through welding. Spiral baffle (11) hinders magnetorheological fluid to carry out axial flow, and magnetorheological fluid carries out spiral flow along spiral baffle in spiral liquid flow channel (16), forms four liquid flow channels of spiral liquid flow a channel (16a), spiral liquid flow b channel (16b), spiral liquid flow c channel (16c) and spiral liquid flow d channel (16d).

[0019] As Figure 4The diagram shows the distribution of magnetic field lines of the excitation coil of this utility model. The valve body (2), winding sleeve I (4), winding sleeve II (6), winding sleeve III (8) and magnetic sleeve (14) are all made of magnetic materials, while the valve core (15), magnetic isolation ring I (5), magnetic isolation ring II (7), left baffle (3), right baffle (10) and spiral baffle (10) are all made of non-magnetic materials. The magnetic field lines generated by the excitation coil I (12) pass through the valve body (2), winding cylinder II (6), spiral liquid flow channel (16), magnetic sleeve (14) and winding cylinder III (8) in sequence, and return to the valve body (2) to form a closed loop; the magnetic field lines generated by the excitation coil II (13) pass through the valve body (2), winding cylinder II (6), spiral liquid flow channel (16), magnetic sleeve (14) and winding cylinder I (4) in sequence, and return to the valve body (2) to form a closed loop.

A lead wire hole is machined on one side of the right baffle (10). The wires of the excitation coil I (12) and the excitation coil II (13) are led out through the lead wire hole.

[0021] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0022] The magnetorheological fluid flows into the magnetorheological valve through the inlet at the left end cap (1), enters the spiral flow channel (16) through the oblong hole on the left baffle (3), flows out through the oblong hole on the right baffle (10), and then flows out of the magnetorheological valve through the outlet at the right end cap (9). When current is applied to excitation coil I (12) and excitation coil II (13), the magnetic lines of force generated by the electromagnetic effect will pass perpendicularly through the spiral flow channel (16). The shear stress of the magnetorheological fluid in the spiral flow channel (16) changes accordingly under the action of the magnetic field, causing the magnetorheological valve to generate inlet and outlet pressure drops. By adjusting the magnitude of the current applied to excitation coil I (12) and excitation coil II (13), the inlet and outlet pressure drops of the magnetorheological valve can be adjusted to achieve continuous and controllable pressure drops.
