[0002] Currently, the gas and liquid pipelines inside machine tools are run separately and each has its own nozzle. In some particularly confined spaces, especially in intelligent equipment, where space is limited, the structure is compact, and the pipelines are orderly and not chaotic, if a separate nozzle is set for each gas pipeline and a separate nozzle is set for each liquid pipeline, the pipeline routing becomes messy and complex. Typically, a single piece of equipment has several or even a dozen gas and water pipelines. In addition, multiple electrical and signal pipelines also need to be set up, making the equipment less streamlined.

[0003] When designing and manufacturing intelligent robots, nozzles in liquid pipelines are used to spray water, such as for lubricating or cooling equipment. If gas is mixed in, the liquid will splash onto other parts. Nozzles in gas pipelines are used to spray gas to blow away debris and dry parts. If moisture is mixed in, it will affect the working effect. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a gas-liquid dual-purpose valve for intelligent production line cleaning, which solves the problem that when the nozzle of the gas pipeline is used to spray gas to blow away debris and dry parts, moisture is mixed in, affecting the working effect.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, a dual-purpose gas-liquid valve for intelligent production line cleaning is provided, comprising: a water inlet pipe and an air inlet pipe. An air inlet pipe is provided on one side of the water inlet pipe. A nozzle is fixedly connected to the output end of both the water inlet pipe and the air inlet pipe. An installation sleeve is fixedly connected to the side of both the water inlet pipe and the air inlet pipe near the nozzle. An arc-shaped groove is formed on the inner wall of the installation sleeve away from the nozzle. A sealing plug is arc-shaped against the inside of the arc-shaped groove. A support rod is fixedly connected to the rear middle of the sealing plug. A sealing plate is fixedly connected to one end of the support rod. A support spring is fixedly connected to the rear middle of the sealing plate. A rear fixing plate is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the support spring. Four support columns are fixedly connected at equal intervals to the bottom end of the rear fixing plate. A second convex ring is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the four support columns. The second convex ring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the installation sleeve.

[0006] According to the intelligent production line cleaning gas-liquid dual-purpose valve, a bellows is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the rear fixing plate, and the bellows is sleeved on the outside of the support spring.

[0007] According to the intelligent production line cleaning gas-liquid dual-purpose valve, a sealing groove is provided at the top of the sealing plate, and a sealing ring is inserted into the inside of the sealing groove, and the sealing ring and the first convex ring are fixedly connected.

[0008] According to the intelligent production line cleaning gas-liquid dual-purpose valve, the bottom two sides of the sealing plate are fixedly connected with sliding rods, and the sliding rods and the rear fixed plate are in sliding cooperation.

[0009] According to the intelligent production line cleaning gas-liquid dual-purpose valve, a water pump is fixedly connected to the end of the water inlet pipe away from the nozzle, and a water tank is provided at the input end of the water pump.

[0010] According to the intelligent production line cleaning gas-liquid dual-purpose valve, an air tank is provided at the end of the air inlet pipe away from the nozzle.

[0011] According to the intelligent production line cleaning gas-liquid dual-purpose valve, both ends of the bellows and the support spring are provided with sealing gaskets.

[0012] The above-mentioned solution has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. This utility model uses a sleeve structure to allow gas and liquid to flow through a single nozzle. One-way valves with sleeve structures are installed on both the gas and liquid lines. When using liquid, the one-way valve structure ensures that moisture in the liquid line does not enter the gas line, thus keeping the gas line dry. In this way, a nozzle can be set up in a small space for cleaning and drying products. The one-way valve structure is simple and easy to install and use.

[0014] 2. This utility model is equipped with a support spring, a sealing groove, and a sealing ring. When the water source is blocked, the support spring provides elastic support, and the spring is inserted into the sealing groove and sealing ring on the outside of the sealing plate to achieve a seal. This prevents the backflow of water and the flow of gas through one end of the air inlet pipe. This operation also prevents water or gas from entering, thus increasing the sealing performance during use.

Detailed Implementation

[0023] This section will describe in detail the specific embodiments of the present utility model. The preferred embodiments of the present utility model are shown in the accompanying drawings. The purpose of the drawings is to supplement the textual description with graphics, so that people can intuitively and vividly understand each technical feature and the overall technical solution of the present utility model, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0024] Reference Figure 1-4 This utility model embodiment describes a dual-purpose gas-liquid valve for intelligent production line cleaning, comprising: a water inlet pipe 1 and an air inlet pipe 4. An air inlet pipe 4 is located on one side of the water inlet pipe 1. Both the water inlet pipe 1 and the air inlet pipe 4 have nozzles 2 fixedly connected to their output ends. Water permeates through support columns 16 to the other side of the mounting sleeve 3 and is sprayed out through the nozzles 2. Mounting sleeves 3 are fixedly connected to the sides of both the water inlet pipe 1 and the air inlet pipe 4 near the nozzles 2. The internal structure of the mounting sleeve 3 implements a one-way valve principle, preventing cross-contamination of gas or liquid after flow. An arc-shaped groove is formed on the inner wall of the mounting sleeve 3 away from the nozzles 2. A sealing plug 8 is arc-shaped against the inside of the arc-shaped groove. Water pressure pushes the sealing plug 8, causing the support rod 11 to move towards the support spring 18. A support rod 11 is fixedly connected to the middle of the rear side of the sealing plug 8, and a sealing plate 1 is fixedly connected to one end of the support rod 11. 3. The sealing plate 13 will detach from the first convex ring 9, and then the water source will flow through the gap between the sealing plate 13 and the first convex ring 9. A support spring 18 is fixedly connected to the middle of the rear side of the sealing plate 13. The setting of the mounting sleeve 3 can spray water. When the water source is blocked, the support spring 18 provides elastic support and inserts it into the sealing groove 15 and sealing ring 12 on the outer side of the sealing plate 13 to achieve sealing. A rear fixing plate 19 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the support spring 18. Four support columns 16 are fixedly connected at equal intervals to the bottom end of the rear fixing plate 19. A second convex ring 17 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the four support columns 16. The second convex ring 17 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting sleeve 3. A water pump 7 is fixedly connected to the end of the water inlet pipe 1 away from the nozzle 2. A water tank 6 is set at the input end of the water pump 7. The water source inside the water tank 6 is drawn out by the water pump 7 at the top of the water tank 6 and flows through the water inlet pipe 1.

[0025] A bellows 14 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the rear fixing plate 19. The bellows 14 structure provides a tensile force and prevents the internal support spring 18 from being easily corroded by liquid, thus affecting its elasticity. The bellows 14 is sleeved on the outside of the support spring 18. A sealing groove 15 is opened at the top of the sealing plate 13. A sealing ring 12 is inserted into the sealing groove 15 and is fixedly connected to the first convex ring 9. Slide rods 10 are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom end of the sealing plate 13 and slide in cooperation with the rear fixing plate 19. An air tank 5 is provided at the end of the air inlet pipe 4 away from the nozzle 2. Sealing gaskets are provided at both ends of the bellows 14 and the support spring 18 to increase the sealing performance.

[0026] Working principle: In use, the water pump 7 at the top of the water tank 6 first draws water from inside the water tank 6 and circulates the water through the water inlet pipe 1. During the circulation, the water pressure pushes the sealing plug 8, and the support rod 11 moves to the side of the support spring 18. At this time, the sealing plate 13 will disengage from the first convex ring 9. Then, the water flows through the gap between the sealing plate 13 and the first convex ring 9. After circulation, the water permeates through the support column 16 to the other side of the mounting sleeve 3 and is sprayed out through the nozzle 2. The mounting sleeve 3 is designed to spray the water. When the water source is blocked, the support spring 18 provides elastic support and inserts it into the sealing groove 15 and sealing ring 12 on the outside of the sealing plate 13 to achieve a seal. This prevents the backflow of water and the air flow at one end of the air inlet pipe 4. The same operation prevents water or gas from entering.

[0027] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
