[0002] A pneumatic butterfly valve consists of a pneumatic actuator and a butterfly valve. It uses a circular disc that rotates with the valve stem to open and close, achieving the desired action. Primarily used as a shut-off valve, it can also be designed to have regulating or combined shut-off and regulating functions. Butterfly valves are increasingly used in low-pressure, large- and medium-diameter pipelines. Pneumatic butterfly valves are classified as: stainless steel pneumatic butterfly valves, hard-seal pneumatic butterfly valves, soft-seal pneumatic butterfly valves, and carbon steel pneumatic butterfly valves. While pneumatic butterfly valves offer high precision, their functionality is limited, whereas pipeline systems typically have diverse functions and frequently require flow regulation, making them unsuitable for many applications.
[0003] To address this problem, this utility model was developed. Utility Model Content
[0004] Therefore, in view of the above problems, this utility model proposes a high-precision flow-regulating pneumatic butterfly valve with a simple structure and the ability to regulate flow.

[0009] A further improvement is that the filtration device includes a filter frame that matches the shape of the flow regulating channel, the filter frame contains a filter screen, and the filter frame is located at the water inlet end of the flow regulating channel.
[0010] A further improvement is that a water-resistant hammer device is provided between the filter frame and the flow regulating seat.

[0018] Figure 1 This is a cross-sectional structural diagram of the high-precision flow-regulating pneumatic butterfly valve according to an embodiment of this utility model.
[0019] Figure 2 This is an enlarged structural schematic diagram of embodiment A of this utility model. Detailed Implementation
[0020] The present invention will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0021] refer to Figure 1-2The present invention discloses a high-precision flow-regulating pneumatic butterfly valve, comprising a valve body 1, an inlet channel 2 and an outlet channel formed on the valve body 1, wherein a flow-regulating seat 3 is provided in the inlet channel 2, the flow-regulating seat 3 has a flow-regulating channel formed on it, a flow-regulating cylinder 8 is slidably provided on the flow-regulating seat 3, the flow-regulating cylinder 8 abuts against the inner wall of the flow-regulating channel, a plurality of strip-shaped water outlet grooves 9 are formed from top to bottom on the flow-regulating cylinder 8, the strip-shaped water outlet grooves 9 are evenly distributed around the flow-regulating cylinder 8, and there is a gap between each water outlet groove, a lifting rod 4 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the flow-regulating cylinder 8, a lifting seat 5 is provided on the valve body 1, the lifting seat 5 has a lifting channel 7 formed on it, the lifting rod 4 is slidably inserted in the lifting channel 7, and a sliding device is provided on the lifting seat 5 to drive the lifting rod 4 to slide.
[0022] Specifically, the sliding device includes a screw 6, which is rotatably mounted on the lifting seat 5. One end of the screw 6 is located in the lifting channel 7, and the other end of the screw 6 is equipped with a servo motor, which is mounted on the lifting seat 5. The lifting rod 4 is threaded through the screw 6 and is driven by the screw 6. The lifting rod 4 is square in shape, and the lifting channel 7 is configured to match the lifting rod 4.
[0023] When the butterfly valve is in use and flow regulation is required, the servo motor rotates, driving the screw 6 to rotate. The screw 6 and the sliding rod are driven by a thread, causing the sliding rod to slide into the lifting channel 7, thereby driving the flow regulating cylinder 8 to rise. After the flow regulating cylinder 8 rises, the water outlet tanks are gradually exposed one by one, and water flows out from the outlet. When more water outlet tanks are exposed, the water flow is greater, and vice versa, thus realizing the flow regulation function of the butterfly valve, enabling the butterfly valve to regulate flow.
[0024] To prevent clogging of the water outlet and impurities from entering the regulating cylinder 8 and valve body 1, a filter frame 11 is included, designed to match the shape of the regulating channel. The filter frame 11 contains a filter screen 10 and is located at the water inlet end of the regulating channel. The filter screen 10 filters impurities, preventing them from entering the regulating cylinder 8 or its interior, thus preventing clogging of the water outlet and facilitating long-term use. Furthermore, the absence of impurities in the regulating cylinder 8 and valve body 1 prevents wear on the regulating cylinder 8 and disc, further extending their service life.
[0025] To prevent water hammer from impacting the filter screen 10, symmetrically arranged sliding blocks 12 are included. The sliding blocks 12 are located at the outer end of the sliding frame. A sliding channel 15 is provided on the flow regulating seat 3, and the sliding blocks 12 are disposed within the sliding channel 15. A spring 14 is installed within the sliding channel 15, with one end connected to the sliding block 12 and the other end connected to the upper inner wall of the sliding channel 15. When water hammer impacts the filter screen 10, the filter screen 10 slides within the sliding channel 15, compressing the spring 14. The spring 14 buffers the impact force, thereby reducing the adverse effects of water hammer impact on the filter screen 10. Simultaneously, preventing water hammer from impacting the flow regulating cylinder 8 helps extend the service life of the flow regulating cylinder 8.
[0026] In order to further reduce the water hammer effect, a friction layer 13 is also included. The friction layer 13 is disposed on the side wall of the sliding channel 15, and the sliding block 12 abuts against the friction layer 13.
[0027] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions above are only illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications may be made to this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. All such changes and modifications fall within the scope of protection of this utility model as defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
