Changes or adjustments to their relative relationships, without substantially altering the technical content, should also be considered as within the scope of implementation of this utility model.
[0028] According to an embodiment of this utility model, a check valve is provided. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1 to 6 The valve includes: a valve body 1 with an internal channel, a valve seat 2, a retaining ring 3, and a valve core 4 located within the internal channel. One end of the valve seat 2 has a valve port 21. The retaining ring 3 and the valve port 21 of the valve seat 2 form a cavity for the valve core 4. The valve core 4 is movably disposed within the cavity. The valve core 4 has a guide seat 42 and a guide shaft 41 disposed on the guide seat 42. The retaining ring 3 has a first guide section 31, a second guide section 32, and a third guide section 33. The first guide section 31 is sleeved on the valve port 21 end of the valve seat 2. The second guide section 32 is correspondingly disposed with the guide seat 42, and the third guide section 33 is correspondingly disposed with the guide shaft 41. Figure 1 As shown, the retaining ring 3 and the valve core 4 form a damping structure, reducing the noise generated by the up-and-down impact of the valve core 4 and avoiding the need for an additional spring mechanism. The damping mechanism realizes the functions of a gas spring and a liquid spring, achieving the purpose of vibration reduction and noise reduction.
[0029] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the third guide section 33 is a positioning sleeve with an inner diameter that is clearance-fitted to the outer diameter of the guide shaft 41. Specifically, the guide shaft 41 can be inserted into the positioning sleeve to ensure coaxiality between the guide shaft 41 and the third guide section 33. The clearance between the third guide section 33 and the guide shaft 41 is 0.05mm-0.7mm. Within this clearance range, the impact noise of the valve core 4 can be reduced, achieving a damping effect and thus reducing vibration and noise.
[0030] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the inner diameter of the second guide section 32 is clearance-fitted with the outer diameter of the guide seat 42. The cooperation between the second guide section 32 and the guide seat 42 ensures that they maintain coaxiality, further reducing the impact noise of the valve core 4.
[0031] like Figure 2 As shown, a pressure relief hole 35 can be provided at the top of the second guide section 32, but the diameter of the pressure relief hole 35 is 0.2-1mm. Within this range, the damping effect can be increased.
[0032] At least one flow hole 34 is provided on the side wall of the second guide section 32. The flow hole 34 allows fluid to pass through; specifically, the flow hole can be square, circular, or other shapes.
[0033] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the bottom of the guide seat 42 is provided with an arc-shaped sealing surface 43 corresponding to the valve port 21. When the guide seat 42 of the valve core 4 contacts the valve port 21, a sealing state is formed between the two, and the valve port 21 is closed to prevent the reverse flow of fluid.
[0034] The first guide section 31 and the valve seat 2 are fixed by interference fit or welding. The first guide section 31 and the valve seat 2 are coaxial and can be fixed by interference fit, or by welding for reliable connection. Alternatively, the first guide section 31 can be fixed by fitting with the valve body 1 for limiting.
[0035] like Figure 6 As shown, the outer wall of the valve seat 2 is fitted to the inner wall of the valve body 1. A solder groove 22 for placing solder is provided on the outer wall of the valve seat 2. Solder is placed in the solder groove 22, and then the outer wall of the valve seat 2 is joined to the inner wall of the valve body 1. Heating is then performed, the solder melts, and the two are welded together.
[0036] The valve core 4 can be integrally formed from a bar stock and then machined. To achieve the same function, it can also be assembled in sections by press fitting. Of course, the guide seat and guide shaft of the valve core can also be detachably connected.
[0037] Many other changes and modifications can be made without departing from the concept and scope of this utility model. It should be understood that this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments, and the scope of this utility model is defined by the appended claims.
