AI Technical Summary
Existing nitrogen recovery equipment's control valves suffer from internal leakage issues in terms of sealing performance. Impurities and particles become embedded between the valve core and valve seat, causing wear on the sealing surface and affecting nitrogen recovery efficiency and purity.
A control valve for a nitrogen recovery device was designed, comprising a filter and a valve core assembly in the pre-cavity. The filter element filters out impurity particles, reducing the amount of impurities entering the valve core structure and improving sealing performance. The airflow is regulated by a spring and an adjustment knob to maintain stable outlet pressure.
It effectively prevents nitrogen leakage when the valve is closed, improves sealing performance and the efficiency and purity of nitrogen recovery, and facilitates regular maintenance and replacement of filters and pressure gauges.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of nitrogen recovery equipment components, specifically a control valve for a nitrogen recovery equipment. Background Technology
[0002] There are various types of control valves for nitrogen recovery equipment, including pressure control valves, specifically pressure reducing valves such as the YQD-5 nitrogen pressure reducing valve. These valves can reduce and stabilize the inlet pressure of nitrogen within a certain range, ensuring stable pressure downstream of the valve. Pressure reducing valves in nitrogen recovery equipment include direct-acting and pilot-operated types. The direct-acting type primarily relies on the spring force of an adjusting spring to balance the inlet and outlet pressures.
[0003] The control valves of existing nitrogen recovery equipment still have the following problems when in use: they have a certain internal leakage problem in terms of sealing performance. That is, after impurities and particles are embedded between the valve core and the valve seat, the wear of the sealing surface is accelerated, which will lead to a small amount of nitrogen leakage even when the valve is closed, affecting the efficiency and purity of nitrogen recovery.

[0023] Please see Figures 1-5In this embodiment of the present invention, a control valve for a nitrogen recovery device includes a valve seat 1, which includes a metal seat 11. A front chamber 12 is provided at one end of the metal seat 11, and a rear chamber 13 is provided at the other end of the metal seat 11. The front chamber 12 and the rear chamber 13 are connected. The bottom end of the front chamber 12 is open, and a pre-filter 3 is threadedly installed at the opening. One side of the top end of the rear chamber 13 has an opening, and a valve core assembly 4 is threadedly installed at the opening. The pre-filter 3 includes a first threaded connector 31 threadedly connected to the bottom opening of the front chamber 12. A filter cover 32 is threadedly connected to the center of the top end of the first threaded connector 31. The top end of the filter cover 32 closes the junction between the front chamber 12 and the rear chamber 13. Multiple inlets are opened at equal angles on the periphery of the filter cover 32. The filter cover 32 has an exhaust groove 35 at its top, which is connected to the rear chamber 13. The filter cover 32 has a filter element 33 that is slidably fitted inside it. The entire structure is a pre-filter mechanism with a valve core 43. A pre-chamber 12 is set at one end of the valve seat 1. A pre-filter 3 is set in the pre-chamber 12. The nitrogen gas flow enters through the air inlet groove 34 and is filtered by the filter element 33 to remove impurities. The filtered gas flow enters the rear chamber 13 through the exhaust groove 35. The pre-filter 3 can filter the nitrogen gas flow and remove impurities, preventing impurities from falling into the valve core 43 structure with the gas flow. This reduces the wear of the sealing surface of the valve core 43 structure, improves the sealing performance, and prevents a small amount of nitrogen from leaking when the valve is closed.
[0024] Valve core assembly 4 includes a second threaded connector 41 threadedly connected to the top opening of the rear cavity 13. An adjustment knob 42 is located at the upper end of the second threaded connector 41, and a valve core 43 is located at the bottom end of the adjustment knob 42. The valve core 43 is rotatably mounted within the rear cavity 13. A spring 44 is installed between the valve core 43 and the adjustment knob 42. When the medium enters the valve cavity (rear cavity 13) from the air inlet, it exerts an upward pressure on the valve core 43. Without external force, the valve core 43 is in a closed or partially closed state under the elastic force of the spring 44. The valve core 43 is adjusted by the adjustment knob 42. Button 42 compresses spring 44, causing spring 44 to exert a downward force on valve core 43. This force and the intake pressure form a balance relationship on valve core 43. When the intake pressure increases, the upward force of valve core 43 increases, compressing spring 44 and increasing the opening of valve core 43. More medium flows through valve core 43 to the outlet. Due to the change in the opening of valve core 43, the outlet pressure is kept near the set value. Conversely, when the intake pressure decreases, spring 44 forces valve core 43 to move downward, reducing the opening of valve core 43 and reducing the medium flow, thus maintaining a stable outlet pressure.
[0025] Each of the two ends of the metal base 11 is connected to a threaded end 2. The overall pressure reducing control valve can be connected to the nitrogen delivery pipeline of the nitrogen recovery equipment through the two end connections 2.
[0026] An assembly groove 14 is provided on the other side of the top of the rear cavity 13. A pressure gauge 5 is installed in the assembly groove 14. The pressure gauge 5 includes an instrument detection seat 51 threadedly connected to the assembly groove 14. An instrument panel 52 is provided on the top of the instrument detection seat 51. The pressure gauge 5 can monitor the gas pressure data in the rear cavity 13.
[0027] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: The overall pressure reducing control valve can be connected to the nitrogen delivery pipeline of the nitrogen recovery equipment through the connecting ends 2 on both sides. It is equipped with a pre-filter mechanism with a valve core 43 structure. A pre-cavity 12 is provided at one end of the valve seat 1, and a pre-filter 3 is installed in the pre-cavity 12. The nitrogen gas flow enters through the inlet groove 34, filters impurities through the filter element 33, and finally the filtered gas flow enters the rear cavity 13 through the exhaust groove 35. When the medium enters the valve cavity (rear cavity 13) from the inlet, it exerts an upward pressure on the valve core 43. Without external force, the valve core 43 is held in place by the spring 44. Under the elastic force, the valve core 43 is in a closed or partially closed state. By adjusting the knob 42 to compress the spring 44, the spring 44 applies a downward force to the valve core 43. This force and the intake pressure form a balance relationship on the valve core 43. When the intake pressure increases, the upward force of the valve core 43 increases, compressing the spring 44 and increasing the opening of the valve core 43. More medium flows through the valve core 43 to the outlet. Due to the change in the opening of the valve core 43, the outlet pressure is kept near the set value. Conversely, when the intake pressure decreases, the spring 44 forces the valve core 43 to move downward, reducing the opening of the valve core 43 and reducing the medium flow, thus maintaining a stable outlet pressure.
[0028] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
