[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0017] 1. This pneumatic valve employs an integrated piston-piston coupling within the valve core, creating a multi-layered piston structure within the pneumatic assembly. By supplying air to the cylinder connector, gas is dispersed from the air holes on the cylinder core to the lower parts of each piston layer, causing the pistons to lift the cylinder core. The coupling, following the cylinder core, then synchronously lifts the valve disc, opening the valve. Conversely, when the cylinder connector is closed, the lower part of the piston experiences no gas pressure. This pressure, combined with the spring force of the disc spring inside the cylinder head, pushes the piston to descend the cylinder core in the opposite direction. The coupling, following the cylinder core, then synchronously descends the valve disc, closing the valve. This allows for convenient and precise shut-off control of high-purity and ultra-high-purity specialty gases.

[0018] 2. This pneumatic valve structure extends the coupling to the upper part of the cylinder core and connects it to the cylinder core using fixing bolts. The coupling can be installed and disassembled through the upper part of the pneumatic assembly, allowing for quick disassembly of the connection between the pneumatic assembly and the valve body. This increases the ease of installation and disassembly, facilitating maintenance. The sealing rings between the components improve the valve's sealing performance, preventing air leakage and avoiding contamination of the controlled medium by external media entering the valve body. This enhances the overall performance and service life of the pneumatic valve. Attached Figure Description

The upper part of the pneumatic assembly 2 is provided with a cylinder connector 26, which is used to connect to an external air source.

[0025] The cylinder core 20 is a tubular structure located at the center of the cylinder body 21. The upper end of the coupling 12 is located inside the tubular body of the cylinder core 20, and the top of the coupling 12 is connected to the top of the cylinder core 20 by a fixing bolt 210. The valve body 1 and the pneumatic assembly 2 can be separated by removing the fixing bolt 210, which increases the convenience of installation and disassembly and facilitates maintenance. The integrated coupling 12 is connected to the cylinder core 20, and the pneumatically drives the piston ring 22 and the cylinder core 20, so that the piston drives the coupling 12 and the valve disc 13 to move. The valve disc 13 moves synchronously with the coupling 12 and the cylinder core 20 to complete the opening and closing of the pneumatic valve.

[0026] The piston rings 22 inside the cylinder body 21 are arranged in three sets at equal intervals, and the piston retaining rings 23 inside the cylinder body 21 are arranged in two sets. The two sets of piston retaining rings 23 are alternately arranged between the three sets of piston rings 22.

[0027] A sealing ring 30 is provided at the connection between the upper part of the valve body 1 and the cylinder body 21 to prevent air leakage at the connection between the upper part of the valve body 1 and the cylinder body 21. A sealing ring 30 is provided between the outer side wall of the valve cap 11 and the inner side wall of the upper part of the valve body 1 to prevent the fluid medium passing through the valve body 1 from leaking into the interior of the cylinder body 21. A sealing ring 30 is provided between the inner side wall of the valve cap 11 and the outer side wall of the coupling 12 to prevent the fluid medium passing through the valve body 1 from leaking into the interior of the cylinder core 20 of the upper part of the coupling 12.

[0028] The outer ring of the piston retaining ring 23 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cylinder body 21. A sealing ring 30 is provided between the inner ring of the piston retaining ring 23 and the outer wall of the inner ring of the piston ring 22.

[0030] The cylinder core 20 has a tubular structure with air holes 201 on its body. The piston ring 22 has a channel 221 on its lower inner ring side. The air holes 201 on the cylinder core 20 are corresponding to the channel 221 on the lower inner ring side of the piston ring 22. After the pneumatic assembly 2 receives air from the cylinder connector 26, it passes through the cylinder core 20 and is gradually dispersed to the corresponding piston ring 22 by the air holes 201 on the cylinder core 20. The air is then dispersed by the channel 221 on the lower side of the piston ring 22.

[0031] The cylinder head 25 is fixedly connected to the cylinder body 21. The butterfly spring 24 is disposed between the cylinder head 25 and the piston ring 22.

Boss 280 on retaining ring 28 blocks the rotation of locking nut 27, limiting cylinder connector 26 at the center of locking nut 27, thereby controlling the stroke of piston ring 22 at the lower part of cylinder connector 26.

[0033] The lower part of the cylinder core 20 is movably connected to the valve cap 11, and a sealing ring 30 is provided between the outer wall surface of the lower part of the cylinder core 20 and the inner wall surface of the valve cap 11.

The cooperation of the sealing ring improves the sealing performance of the pneumatic valve and prevents air leakage from the valve body.

[0034] The working principle of this utility model:

[0035] Opening the valve: The cylinder connector 26 on the pneumatic assembly 2 is vented, and the gas is dispersed to the lower part of each layer of piston ring 22 through the air hole 201 on the cylinder core 20 and the channel 221 at the bottom of the piston ring 22. The piston ring 22 receives the tension of the gas and drives the cylinder core 20 to be lifted. The coupling 12 follows the cylinder core 20 and drives the valve disc 13 to be lifted synchronously. The upward movement of the valve disc 13 completes the opening of the valve.

[0036] Valve closure: By closing the airflow from the pneumatic assembly 2 to the cylinder connector 26, there is no gas tension at the lower part of the piston ring 22. At this time, in conjunction with the elastic force of the disc spring 24 inside the cylinder head 25, the disc spring 24 pushes the piston ring 22 to drive the cylinder core 20 to descend in the opposite direction in sync. The coupling 12 follows the cylinder core 20 and drives the valve disc 13 to descend in sync. The downward movement of the valve disc 13 completes the closure of the valve.

[0037] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes or modifications made to the structure, features and principles described in the claims of the present utility model patent application are included in the scope of the present utility model patent application.
