Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of dual-way valve technology, specifically to a dual-way valve with a stroke-free housing. Background Technology
[0002] A dual-way valve is a device in a pneumatic conveying system that functions as a transfer and reversing mechanism. It uses a cylinder to rotate an internal valve core, allowing for both direct and bypass connections. Existing dual-way valves typically have the cylinder fixed to a stroke housing, which in turn is fixed to an end cover.
[0003] Because the stroke housing is fixedly connected to the cylinder, the stroke housing is relatively large and bulky, making it inconvenient to install and disassemble. Moreover, in most cases, it involves working at height, posing safety hazards for disassembly and maintenance. Utility Model Content

[0031] See attached document Figure 1As shown, this application embodiment provides a stroke-free housing dual-way valve, including a valve body, a cylinder 3, a transmission system, and a thin-walled protective cover 7. The valve body includes a valve shell 1 and a valve core 2. The valve core 2 is rotatably disposed inside the valve shell 1. The rotation of the valve core 2 realizes the straight-through and side-through adjustment of the valve body. The cylinder 3 is fixedly mounted on a cylinder seat 4, which is fixed on the valve shell 1. The transmission system is driven by the cylinder 3 to drive the valve core 2 to rotate inside the valve shell 1. The thin-walled protective cover 7 is detachably disposed outside the valve shell 1 and covers the transmission system. The side of the thin-walled protective cover 7 facing the cylinder 3 is provided with a cylinder rod inlet. The cylinder rod of the cylinder 3 extends into the thin-walled protective cover 7 from the cylinder rod inlet and connects to the transmission system. This new design adopts a split design of thin-walled cover 7 and cylinder 3, abandoning the traditional method of fixing cylinder 3 to the stroke housing, thus avoiding the defects of the stroke housing being large and heavy. Since the thin-walled cover 7 is lightweight and is installed separately on the valve housing 1, it is very convenient to disassemble and install the thin-walled cover 7 during inspection and maintenance.
[0032] Specifically:
[0033] To enable the cylinder 3 to be mounted on the valve housing 1, as shown in Figure 1, the cylinder seat 4 includes a seat plate 401 and a connecting plate 402. The connecting plate 402 is integrally formed on both ends of the seat plate 401. Bolt holes are provided on the connecting plate 402. After aligning the bolt holes on the connecting plate 402 with the bolt holes on the end caps at both ends of the valve housing 1, the cylinder 3 is fixedly mounted on the seat plate 401 by bolts, thus the cylinder seat 4 is fixed on the valve housing 1.
[0034] In one embodiment, to achieve rotation of the valve core 2, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the transmission system includes a gear 6 and a rack 5. The gear 6 is located outside the valve housing 1, and the valve core 2 is rotatably mounted inside the valve housing 1 via a rotating shaft. The gear 6 and the valve core 2 are coaxially arranged. The rack 5 is fixed to the output end of the cylinder 3 and meshes with the gear 6. It is conceivable that... Figure 3 As shown, when cylinder 3 extends, it drives gear 6 to rotate via rack 5. Gear 6 then drives the rotating shaft carrying valve core 2 from straight-through to side-through. Conversely, when cylinder 3 retracts, it drives gear 6 to rotate via rack 5. Gear 6 then drives the rotating shaft carrying valve core 2 from side-through to straight-through. Since the resistance encountered when switching from straight-through to side-through is greater than that when switching from side-through to straight-through, and the thrust of cylinder 3 is greater than its pulling force, this new design adjusts the switching from straight-through to side-through to the pushing force of cylinder 3, and the switching from side-through to straight-through to the pulling force of cylinder 3, making the rotation of the equipment more efficient.
[0035] Of course, in order to ensure that the rack 5 and gear 6 remain in contact and do not slip during the extension and retraction of cylinder 3, as described above, Figure 2As shown, a limiting seat 9 is also provided on the outside of the valve body 1 to keep the rack 5 meshing with the gear 6. Specifically, the limiting seat 9 includes a mounting plate 401 and an inclined rib. The mounting plate 401 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the valve body 1 by bolts. The inclined rib is integrally formed vertically in the middle of the mounting plate 401, and a PTFE limiting pad 10 is provided on the side of the inclined rib facing the rack 5. The PTFE limiting pad 10 fits against the rack 5 and limits the movement of the rack 5, ensuring that the rack 5 always meshes with the gear 6.
[0036] In this embodiment, to achieve the detachable installation of the thin-walled protective cover 7 on the valve housing 1, as follows: Figure 2 As shown, multiple perforated lugs 8 for mounting thin-walled covers 7 are provided on the outer wall of the valve body 1. The thin-walled cover 7 has threaded holes corresponding to the perforated lugs 8, and bolts for fixing to the perforated lugs 8 are installed in the threaded holes. The thin-walled cover 7 is mounted on the valve body 1 by these bolts. To remove the thin-walled cover 7, simply unscrew the bolts.
[0037] In summary, the stroke-free shell-less dual-way valve provided in this application has the following advantages:
[0038] Advantage 1: Compared with the traditional travel housing installation method, the equipment is lighter and saves costs.
[0039] Advantage 2: Traditional dual-way valves require disassembling the stroke housing during maintenance and disassembly. The stroke housing is also fixed with a cylinder, which is very troublesome and often involves working at height, posing a safety hazard. The thin-walled protective cover of this new stroke housing-free dual-way valve is very lightweight and is set independently of the cylinder, making it easy to remove.
[0040] Advantage 3: Since the resistance encountered when switching from a straight passage to a side passage is greater than that when switching from a side passage to a straight passage, and the cylinder thrust is greater than the pulling force, this new model adjusts the switching from a straight passage to a side passage to a cylinder push, and the switching from a side passage to a straight passage to a cylinder pull, making the rotation of the equipment more reasonable.
[0041] Advantage 4: Traditional dual-way valves control the cylinder stroke through the limit bolts on the stroke housing. This can cause the bolts to be bent by the cylinder, leading to valve core misalignment and material leakage into another passage. In contrast, the stroke-free dual-way valve calculates the gear size through the cylinder stroke to achieve the exact rotation angle, and uses the cylinder itself for limiting, thus eliminating the limit bolts and avoiding valve core misalignment.
[0042] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
