[0026] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present application are used to distinguish similar objects, and do not necessarily describe a specific order or sequence.

[0027] The terms “comprising” and “having”, and any variations thereof, in the specification and claims of this application are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, for example, a process, method, system, product, or device that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units that are explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not explicitly listed or that are inherent to such process, method, product, or device.

[0028] like Figures 1-8 The self-locking, sealed automotive throttle valve body shown includes a housing 2 and an actuator 1. The housing 2 is generally cylindrical, with most of the actuator 1 located outside the housing 2. The main body of the housing 2 is a valve seat 210 with both ends extending through it. The outer side of the valve seat 210 also has a mounting plate 220 with connecting holes 221 for bolts and other connecting parts to pass through, thus fixing the entire throttle valve to the frame. Both ends of the valve seat 210 have connecting ends for insertion and connection with the intake and exhaust pipes. In other words, the valve seat 21... The two ends of the 0 are the intake connection end 230 and the exhaust connection end 240, respectively. The intake connection end 230 is inserted into the intake pipe, and the exhaust connection end 240 is inserted into the exhaust pipe. The outer side of the intake connection end 230 is provided with a coaxial first retaining ring 231, which is used to increase the contact friction with the inner wall of the intake pipe. Under the constraint of the outer clamp of the inner intake pipe, the probability of loosening can be effectively reduced. The outer side of the exhaust connection end 240 is provided with a coaxial second retaining ring 241, which is also used to reduce the probability of the exhaust pipe loosening.

[0029] The inner wall of the valve seat 210 has a pair of parallel inner planes 215. The portion of the inner wall of the valve seat 210 located between the two inner planes 215 is an inner arc surface 216, forming a non-cylindrical cavity structure inside the valve seat 210. The inner arc surface 216 of the valve seat 210 has a baffle. The cross-section of the baffle along the direction perpendicular to the axis of the valve seat 210 is arc-shaped. The valve seat 210 has coaxial through shaft holes 212 in the two inner planes 215. The axis of the through shaft hole 212 is perpendicular to the axis of the valve seat 210. That is to say, the axis of the through shaft hole 212 cannot be in the same plane as the axis of the valve seat 210. This is the key to realizing the self-locking sealing function.

[0030] The actuator 1 includes a valve handle 120 located outside the housing 2. One end of the valve handle 120 is fixedly connected to a snap-fit ​​shaft 130. The actuator 1 has two valve handles 120. The ends of the two valve handles 120 away from the snap-fit ​​shaft 130 are connected to a bridging rod 101. The end of the bridging rod 101 can be connected to the valve handle 120 through a connecting rod. The valve handle 120 is also provided with a connecting shaft hole 121 for cooperating with the output end of the drive mechanism, thereby applying external force to the actuator 1 to change the working state of the throttle valve.

[0031] The end of the clamping shaft 130 is connected with the valve disc 3 through the through shaft hole 212, the clamping shaft 130 and the through shaft hole 212 form a rotary pair, the outer side surface of the valve disc 3 has a pair of parallel smooth surfaces 301, the rest of the outer side surface of the valve disc 3 is a circular arc surface, the smooth surfaces 301 are in contact with the inner flat surface 215 to form a sliding pair, the circular arc surface can be in contact with the inner arc surface 216, the valve disc 3 is provided with a pin hole 302 in the smooth surface 301, the axis of the pin hole 302 is also vertical to the axis of the valve disc 3, the end of the clamping shaft 130 is provided with a clamping groove 131, which is clamped with the side of the smooth surface 301 of the valve disc 3, and the inner wall of the clamping groove 131 is also provided with a latch 132, which is inserted into the pin hole 302, so that the valve disc 3 and the clamping shaft 130 are clamped, and the valve disc 3 will not move up and down relative to the clamping shaft 130, and has good stability.

[0032] The baffle in the valve seat 210 is divided into a first baffle 213 and a second baffle 214, the projections of the first baffle 213 and the second baffle 214 on the plane perpendicular to the inner flat surface 215 do not coincide, and the axis of the through shaft hole 212 is located between the first baffle 213 and the second baffle 214, that is, the first baffle 213 and the second baffle 214 are located in the two inner arc surfaces 216 in the valve seat 210 respectively, the end surfaces of the first baffle 213 and the second baffle 214 are both perpendicular to the axis of the valve seat 210, the valve disc 3 can be in contact with the end surfaces of the first baffle 213 and the second baffle 214 at the same time, so when the valve disc 3 is in contact with the end surfaces of the baffles, the flat valve disc 3 is also perpendicular to the axis of the valve seat 210, at this time the throttle valve is in a closed state.

[0033] The inner wall of the valve seat 210 is provided with an embedded groove 211 between the end surfaces of the first baffle 213 and the second baffle 214, the plane of the embedded groove 211 is perpendicular to the axis of the valve seat 210, the embedded groove 211 is provided with a sealing ring 4, which is used to tightly fit with the edge of the valve disc 3, and the clamping shaft 130 passes through the sealing ring 4, so as to ensure the blocking effect of the two ends when the throttle valve is completely closed.

[0034] Working principle: when the external driving mechanism does not apply external force to the valve handle 120 through the connection shaft hole 121, the pressure difference between the expanded inner cavity caused by the piston movement and the atmosphere will force the gas to enter the valve seat 210 from the air inlet connecting end 230 after the exhaust of the engine cylinder, the gas flow generated by the gas flow acts on the valve disc 3, the upper part of the valve disc 3 is subjected to a large gas flow force and the lower part is subjected to a small gas flow force, the valve disc 3 is turned over due to the unbalanced force, and the valve disc 3 is blocked by the baffle in the valve seat 210 when it is rotated to be perpendicular to the axis of the shell 2, the unbalanced pressure difference of the valve disc 3 acts on the baffle, and the baffle keeps the valve disc 3 in a completely sealed state in the shell 2, thereby realizing the self-locking function and making the engine quickly stop rotating.

[0035] The foregoing describes the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present application. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present application is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and the above-described embodiments and descriptions in the specification are only the principles of the present application. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application, various changes and improvements can be made to the present application, and these changes and improvements all fall within the scope of the claimed present application. The scope of protection of the present application is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
