[0033] Figure 1 A sectional structure diagram of the check valve for riverbed provided by the embodiment is shown. As shown in the figure, Figure 1 The check valve for riverbed provided by the embodiment includes a valve body assembly 100 and a sealing assembly 200. The valve body assembly 100 has a liquid inlet flow channel 1001 and a liquid outlet flow channel 1002, and a sealing surface 112 is further arranged in the valve body assembly 100. The sealing surface 112 is located between the liquid inlet flow channel 1001 and the liquid outlet flow channel 1002. The sealing assembly 200 includes a sealing ball 210 and a sealing member 220 coated outside the sealing ball 210. The sealing assembly 200 is movably arranged in the valve body assembly 100 and can be attached to or away from the sealing surface 112 to cut off or connect the passage between the liquid inlet flow channel 1001 and the liquid outlet flow channel 1002.

[0034] The riverbed check valve provided by the embodiment is applied to water bodies such as rivers and ponds. When the water level of the riverbed is lower than the water level of the underground pipeline, the water in the underground pipeline can push the sealing assembly 200 to open under the action of the water pressure difference, thereby supplementing water to the rivers and ponds. When the water level of the riverbed is higher than the water level of the underground pipeline, the sealing assembly 200 is closed due to gravity to prevent water from flowing backward, thereby achieving the purpose of supplementing water to the rivers and ponds when the water bodies such as rivers and ponds are dry, and preventing water in the rivers and ponds from flowing backward when the rivers and ponds are in flood. By coating the sealing member 220 on the sealing ball 210, a good sealing effect between the sealing assembly 200 and the sealing surface 112 can be ensured, thereby preventing water in the rivers and ponds from seeping into the underground pipeline through the gap between the sealing assembly 200 and the sealing surface 112 when the sealing assembly 200 is closed. The riverbed check valve has the advantages of simple structure, low use cost, and high automation, and can effectively solve the dual needs of dry water supplementing and flood prevention in the riverbed environment.

[0035] Optionally, the sealing member 220 is made of rubber material, which has good sealing effect, is convenient to obtain, and has low cost. In the embodiment, the sealing member 220 is coated on the sealing ball 210 by vulcanization process, so that the sealing member 220 is firmly fixed on the surface of the sealing ball 210, and displacement of the sealing ball 210 relative to the sealing member 220 in the use process is avoided, so that the part of the sealing member 220 in contact with the sealing surface 112 is affected by the lack of pressure applied by the sealing ball 210, thereby affecting the sealing effect between the two.

[0036] In some embodiments, the sealing surface 112 is an arc surface, which can increase the sealing area between the sealing surface 112 and the sealing assembly 200, thereby ensuring the sealing effect between the two. Optionally, the radius R1 of the virtual circle on which the sealing surface 112 is located is greater than or equal to 1.5R, where R is the radius of the sealing ball 210. Through simulation and test verification, the sealing surface 112 with the above size range can better fit the sealing assembly 200, thereby further ensuring the sealing effect between the two. For example, R1 can be 1.6R, 1.7R, 1.8R, 1.9R, 2.0R, etc. Of course, the specific value of the radius R1 of the sealing surface 112 is not limited in the embodiment, and the designer can adjust the specific value of R1 according to the actual processing needs.

[0037] In other embodiments, the sealing surface 112 can also be a conical surface. Since the sealing member 220 can be elastically deformed, the sealing assembly 200 can be sealed at a position with a smaller hole diameter of the sealing port surrounded by the sealing surface 112, so that the two form an interference fit, thereby ensuring the sealing effect between the sealing assembly 200 and the sealing surface 112.

[0038] As Figure 1As shown, the valve body assembly 100 comprises a valve body 110 and a valve shell 120 connected above the valve body 110, and both of them surround to form the above-mentioned liquid inlet flow channel 1001 and liquid outlet flow channel 1002, and the sealing surface 112 is arranged in the valve body 110; the bottom of the valve body 110 is provided with a liquid inlet 111 in communication with the liquid inlet flow channel 1001, and the top of the valve shell 120 is provided with a liquid outlet 121 in communication with the liquid outlet flow channel 1002; the sealing assembly 200 is movably arranged in the valve shell 120. By arranging the valve body assembly 100 as the valve body 110 and the valve shell 120 in a split manner, the assembly between the valve body assembly 100 and the sealing assembly 200 can be facilitated.

[0039] Optionally, the sealing ball 210 is made of metal material, which has a large specific gravity and can be well attached to the sealing surface 112 under the action of its own gravity, so as to ensure the sealing effect of the sealing assembly 200 at the sealing position, and the sealing assembly 200 can be sealed and attached to the sealing surface 112 under the action of its own gravity, and the arrangement of a pressing member such as a spring can be omitted, thereby simplifying the structure of the riverbed check valve and reducing the processing cost to a certain extent. In the present embodiment, the specific gravity of the sealing ball 210 is about 1.2 kg / m 3 .

[0040] Optionally, the sealing ball 210 is a hollow ball structure, which can reduce the material of the sealing ball 210 while ensuring good sealing and attachment between the sealing assembly 200 and the sealing surface 112, thereby reducing the material cost.

[0041] Optionally, the number of liquid outlets 121 is multiple, and the multiple liquid outlets 121 are arranged in an array on the valve shell 120, so as to ensure that the river, pond, etc. can be timely replenished, and at the same time, the sealing assembly 200 can be prevented from being partially extended out of the valve shell 120 due to the excessively large liquid outlet 121, thereby affecting the sealing effect between the sealing assembly 200 and the sealing surface 112.

[0042] It should be explained that the arrangement of the multiple liquid outlets 121 on the valve shell 120 can also make the valve shell 120 have a filtering function, so as to prevent impurities in the river, pond, etc. from flowing into the valve body 110 through the liquid outlet 121, and flowing into the underground water pipeline when the sealing assembly 200 is away from the sealing surface 112, or adhering to the sealing surface 112, thereby affecting the sealing effect between the sealing assembly 200 and the sealing surface 112. Of course, in other embodiments, a filtering member can also be arranged in the valve shell 120, which can also achieve the above-mentioned effect.

[0043] As shown in the following Figure 1 , the valve shell 120 is connected with the valve body 110 through a fastener 300. The fastener 300 is a bolt and nut assembly, which has the advantages of convenient disassembly and assembly and stable connection.

[0044] The working principle of the riverbed check valve is briefly described as follows: Figure 1 The working principle of the riverbed check valve is briefly described as follows:

[0045] 1) When the riverbed water level is lower than the underground pipeline water level, the water in the underground pipeline can push the sealing assembly 200 to open under the action of water flow pressure difference, thereby supplementing water to the river and pond;

[0046] 2) When the riverbed water level is higher than the underground pipeline water level, the sealing assembly 200 is closed due to gravity to prevent water flow from flowing backward.

[0047] It should be noted that, Figure 1 The arrow direction in the riverbed check valve is the flow direction of the water flow in the riverbed check valve, and the arrow direction is the vertical direction (up and down direction) when the riverbed check valve is actually installed, and the valve shell 120 is located above the valve body 110, so that the sealing assembly 200 can be in contact with the sealing surface 112 under the action of its own gravity when it does not need to supplement water.

[0048] The basic principle, main features and advantages of the present application are shown and described above. Those skilled in the art should understand that the above examples do not limit the present application in any form, and any technical solution obtained by equivalent replacement or equivalent transformation falls within the protection scope of the present application.
