It typically consists of a valve body, seals, and a drive mechanism. Depending on the application, it can be classified into shut-off valves, regulating valves, and solenoid valves, and is suitable for different vacuum levels. This valve has excellent sealing performance, corrosion resistance, and rapid response capabilities, and is widely used in fields that require precise vacuum control, such as semiconductor manufacturing, vacuum coating, medical equipment, and aerospace experiments.

Detailed Implementation

[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0021] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 5This utility model provides an embodiment of a vacuum valve device with a cleaning function, comprising a vacuum valve body 1, the vacuum valve body 1 including an air passage pipe 11, an air inlet 111 on the rear side of the air passage pipe 11, a threaded surface 1111 on the inner diameter of the air inlet 111, a cleaning component that can be installed on the threaded surface 1111, the cleaning component including a filter element 6 that blocks the air inlet 111, a brush plate 32 on the rear side of the filter element 6 for wiping the rear surface of the filter element 6, and a drive brush plate 32 for rotating the brush plate 32 on the rear side. The drive unit includes a rotating impeller 31, which is fixed relative to the brush plate 32. The impeller 31 is driven to rotate by the flow of gas inside the vacuum valve body 1, thereby achieving the effect of wiping the surface of the filter element 6 by the brush plate 32. This cleans the surface of the filter element 6 and maintains the cleanliness of the internal structure of the vacuum valve body 1. The cleaning component ensures that the filter element 6 can be kept clear for a long time. A second round tube 22 is provided at the threaded surface 1111, and the outer diameter of the second round tube 22 is provided with a threaded surface 22 that engages with the threaded surface 1111. 1. The distance between the front and rear sides of the second circular tube 22 is less than the length of the front and rear sides of the first threaded surface 1111. The second threaded surface 221 can engage with the front area of ​​the first threaded surface 1111. By avoiding the rear area of ​​the first threaded surface 1111, after the second circular tube 22 is installed on the first threaded surface 1111, a tube can still be installed, so that the air passage where the vacuum valve body 1 is located is connected. The front side of the second circular tube 22 is provided with a first circular tube 2. The outer diameter of the first circular tube 2 is smaller than the outer diameter of the second circular tube 22. The filter element 6 is bonded to the right side of the first circular tube 2. The diameter is smaller than the outer diameter of the second round tube 22, so that the first round tube 2 can avoid the tube connected to the air inlet 111, avoiding interference and installation problems. The brush plate 32 includes brush bristles 321 on the front side. The filter element 6 includes a ring 62. A filter cloth 61 is attached to the back side of the ring 62. The filter cloth 61 covers the inner diameter of the ring 62. The brush bristles 321 can slide against the surface of the filter element 6 and wipe the filter cloth 61 to remove dust, reducing the dust adhesion on the surface of the filter cloth 61 and affecting the working efficiency of the vacuum valve body 1.

[0022] Please see Figure 2 - Figure 5In this embodiment, a support plate 21 is provided on the rear side of the circular tube 2. The bottom of the support plate 21 is attached to the surface where the outer diameter of the circular tube 2 is located, and the top of the support plate 21 is attached to the surface where the inner diameter of the circular tube 2 is located. A bracket 7 can be installed on the rear side of the support plate 21. The impeller 31 is rotatably connected to the rear side of the bracket 7. The support plate 21 facilitates the installation of the bracket 7, allowing the bracket 7 to limit the position of the impeller 31. The outer diameter of the filter element 6 is smaller than the outer diameter of the circular tube 2. The top of the support plate 21 is provided with a radially outward-facing surface that can be attached to the filter element 6. The mounting groove 211 on the wall limits the filter element 6, increasing the firmness of the filter element 6 installation. A dust leakage hole 212 is provided on the top of the support plate 21 corresponding to the rear side of the mounting groove 211. This allows dust particles wiped from the surface of the filter element 6 to fall through the hole, preventing them from accumulating at the lower rear edge of the filter element 6 and affecting the working efficiency of the vacuum valve body 1. The bracket 7 includes a mounting plate 72 that fits against the rear side of the support plate 21. The rear side of the mounting plate 72 is provided with... Mounting screws 721 engage with the mounting plate 21. A vertical rod 71 is located on the rear side of the mounting plate 72. A rotating shaft 4 made of polyoxymethylene passes through the upper rear side of the vertical rod 71. The axis of the rotating shaft 4 coincides with the axis of the circular tube 2. An integrally formed retaining ring 41 is located at the outer diameter of the rotating shaft 4. The front side of the retaining ring 41 can fit against the rear side of the vertical rod 71. The impeller 31 includes a sleeve 311. Blades 312 are arranged in a ring at the outer diameter of the sleeve 311. A through hole 3 is located at the axis of the sleeve 311. 111, the sleeve hole 3111 is interference-fitted with the outer diameter of the rotating shaft 4. The front side of the rotating shaft 4 is fitted with a brush plate 32. The front side of the brush plate 32 is provided with a fixing screw 322. The fixing screw 322 can pass through the brush plate 32 and mesh with the rotating shaft 4. The threads of the fixing screw 322 are coated with thread glue. The rotating shaft 4, which is made of polyoxymethylene, makes it self-lubricating, reducing the use of bearings in confined spaces. The interference fit between the sleeve hole 3111 and the rotating shaft 4 facilitates the installation of the impeller 31.

[0023] During operation, the vacuum valve body 1 is connected to the air circuit system as a working component. When gas flows in the air circuit pipe 11, the gas drives the impeller 31 to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating shaft 4 to rotate. The rotating shaft 4 then drives the brush plate 32 to rotate. The bristles 321 on the front side of the brush plate 32 wipe the dust and particles adhering to the rear surface of the filter element 6, causing the dust and particles to fall off. Thanks to the arc-shaped structure of the support plate 21, the dust and particles will gather in one direction, and this gathering direction is located above the dust leakage hole 212, so the dust and particles will fall through the dust leakage hole 212. Reduce obstruction of filter element 6 to enable it to work for a long time. When filter element 6 reaches the end of its service life, remove vacuum valve body 1 from the air circuit system. Use pliers to clamp the tray 21 and rotate the cleaning component around the axis of the round tube 22. This allows it to be removed from the threaded surface 1111 of vacuum valve body 1. The rotation here refers to removal by rotation. The method of removal by rotation is common knowledge for those skilled in the art. Then replace it with a new one and reconnect vacuum valve body 1 to the air circuit system. It is recommended to replace it every six months. The old cleaning component can be sent to the manufacturer for repair and maintenance. The repair and maintenance methods here are known to those skilled in the art.

[0024] Through the above steps, the flow of gas inside the vacuum valve body 1 drives the impeller 31 to rotate, thereby achieving the effect of brush plate 32 wiping the surface of filter element 6, cleaning the surface of filter element 6, maintaining the cleanliness of the internal structure of vacuum valve body 1, and the cleaning component ensures that filter element 6 can remain unobstructed for a long time. This solves the problem that vacuum valve devices in the prior art are prone to clogging when faced with dust and particulate matter entrained in the gas, and that filter media need to be replaced frequently.
