Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of linkage ball valve technology, specifically to a quick-connect coupling for linkage ball valve shut-off. Background Technology

[0002] The quick-connect ball valve stop coupling is a pipe connection device used for the quick connection of two pipes. It is mainly used to control the flow of media and achieve quick connection and disconnection. It is a type of connector that can connect or disconnect pipelines without tools. Connect the quick-connect ball valve stop coupling to the pipeline, ensuring that the sealing ring seals with the pipeline. Then connect the quick-connect ball valve stop coupling to the pipeline, open the ball valve to allow the media to flow, and close the ball valve to disconnect the connection when needed. It features simple structure, convenient use, and good sealing performance.

[0003] Currently, the common two-linkage ball valve quick-connect couplings are connected by a pre-set docking limit block and docking groove on the end face of the ball valve. During installation, the docking limit block on one ball valve is inserted into the docking groove on the other ball valve, and one ball valve is rotated 45° to complete the docking of the two-linkage ball valve quick-connect couplings. The two-linkage ball valve quick-connect couplings lack a safety locking device. After docking, if the pressure at the connection point is too high, the pipeline vibrates, or the residual pressure breaks, the two-linkage ball valve quick-connect couplings are prone to reverse disconnection, resulting in splashing of the medium in the pipeline and the coupling flying out.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0019] 1. This utility model, by setting a locking groove and a locking component, allows two identical linkage ball valve stop quick connectors to be connected and rotated 45° so that the two arrow positions on the linkage ball valve stop quick connectors coincide. Then, each of them rotates the switch wrench 90°. At this time, the ball is fully opened and successfully connected. The outer surface of the switch wrench pushes up the anti-reverse lever, and the anti-reverse lever is locked in the two corresponding locking grooves.

[0020] 2. In this utility model, by setting a wrench positioning component, after the ball valve is disconnected, the second return spring pushes the positioning column to move, and the inner wall of the second accommodating ring groove of the positioning column squeezes the positioning bead. The moving positioning bead is engaged in the first limit groove of the switch rotary wrench. At this time, the ball valve switch rotary wrench cannot be rotated, which plays a foolproof role and keeps the ball valve in a closed state, preventing liquid from flowing.

[0021] 3. This utility model, by setting a limiting component, a first positioning groove and a second positioning groove, when the quick-connect coupling of the ball valve is closed, the pressing rod abuts against the limiting bead, so that the limiting bead is locked in the first positioning groove. After the quick-connect coupling of the ball valve is connected, the pressing rod is pressed, and the first receiving ring groove moves to the position of the limiting bead. At this time, the switch rotary wrench can be rotated. After rotating the switch rotary wrench 90°, the pressing rod is released, and the first return spring pushes the pressing rod to return to its original position, pushing the limiting bead to be locked in the second positioning groove, locking the position of the switch rotary wrench, and preventing the switch rotary wrench from rotating back under the action of external forces such as excessive pressure or vibration.

Detailed Implementation

[0035] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0036] Please see Figure 1-10 A quick-connector for a linkage ball valve, comprising: two quick-connectors 1 for linkage ball valves that are mated together;

[0037] The quick-connector 1 for the ball valve includes a valve housing 2 and a ball 3 installed inside the valve housing 2. A switch rotary wrench 4 for controlling the rotation of the ball 3 is installed on the surface of the valve housing 2. Both valve housings 2 have a docking limit member 5 and a docking groove 6 on their end faces. One end of the docking limit member 5 on one valve housing 2 is inserted into the inner wall of the docking groove 6 on the other valve housing 2. Both valve housings 2 have a locking groove 7 and a locking component 8 on their end faces. One end of the locking component 8 on one valve housing 2 is inserted into the inner wall of the locking groove 7 on the other valve housing 2. The switch rotary wrench 4 has a receiving groove 40 inside. A limit component 41 is installed on the inner wall of the receiving groove 40.

[0038] The limiting assembly 41 includes a first return spring 411, a push rod 412, a limiting bead 413, and a fixing screw ring 414. The first return spring 411, push rod 412, and fixing screw ring 414 are all installed inside the receiving groove 40. One end of the first return spring 411 is connected to the inner wall of the receiving groove 40, and the other end of the first return spring 411 is connected to one end of the push rod 412. The end of the push rod 412 away from the first return spring 411 passes through the fixing screw ring 414 and extends to the outside of the switch rotary wrench. A limiting hole 42 is formed in the inner wall of the receiving groove 40, and the limiting bead 413 is connected inside the limiting hole 42. The surface of the push rod 412 is provided with a first receiving ring groove 415 for the movement of the limiting bead 413. The surface of the valve housing 2 is respectively provided with a first positioning groove 43 and a second positioning groove 44 for the limiting bead 413 to engage. When the linkage ball valve stop quick connector 1 is closed, the push rod 412 abuts against the limiting bead 413. Position bead 413 is engaged in the first positioning groove 43. After the quick-connect coupling 1 of the ball valve is connected, push the push rod 412 on the switch rotary wrench 4 to push the push rod 412 to the receiving groove 40. The push rod 412 compresses the first return spring 411. At the same time, the first receiving ring groove 415 moves to the position of the position bead 413, so that the position bead 413 engaged in the first positioning groove 43 can move into the first receiving ring groove 415. At this time, the switch rotary wrench 4 can be rotated. The rotation angle of the switch rotary wrench 4 is 90°. Release the push rod 412. The first return spring 411 pushes the push rod 412 to reset. The inner wall of the first receiving ring groove 415 squeezes the position bead 413, pushing the position bead 413 to engage in the second positioning groove 44, locking the position of the switch rotary wrench 4, and preventing the switch rotary wrench 4 from rotating back under the action of external forces such as excessive pressure or vibration.

[0039] The locking assembly 8 includes an anti-reverse lever 81 and a connecting shaft 82. The end of the valve body 2 is provided with a mounting groove 9 for mounting the connecting shaft 82. The anti-reverse lever 81 is rotatably connected to the surface of the connecting shaft 82. The inner wall of the mounting groove 9 is provided with a movable groove 10 and a connecting hole 11. The surface of the switch rotary wrench 4 is provided with a first retaining groove 12. The surface of the anti-reverse lever 81 is provided with a drive rod 13. One end of the drive rod 13 passes through the movable groove 10 and is connected to the inner wall of the first retaining groove 12. The inner wall of the connecting hole 11 is provided with a push spring 14, and one end of the push spring 14 is connected to the surface of the anti-reverse lever 81. The outer circular surface of the switch rotary wrench 4 pushes up the anti-reverse lever 81. The anti-reverse lever 81 is locked in two corresponding locking grooves 7, so that when the linkage ball valve shut-off quick connector 1 is connected and in the liquid-flow state, it prevents the two valve bodies 2 from reversing and opening each other, thus avoiding liquid leakage from the connector.

[0040] Both valve housings 2 are equipped with a wrench positioning assembly 15, which includes a positioning post 151 and a positioning bead 152. A connecting groove 16 is formed on the end face of the valve housing 2, and a through groove 17 is formed on the surface of the valve housing 2, communicating with the connecting groove 16. The positioning post 151 is installed on the inner wall of the connecting groove 16, with one end extending to the outside of the connecting groove 16. The positioning bead 152 is installed on the inner wall of the through groove 17. A first limiting groove 39 is formed on the surface of the switch rotary wrench 4 corresponding to the position of the through groove 17, and the inner wall of the first limiting groove 39 is movably connected to the surface of the positioning bead 152. A second receiving ring groove 18 for the movement of the positioning bead 152 is formed on the surface of the positioning post 151. The wrench positioning assembly 15 also includes a second return spring 153, which is installed inside the connecting groove 16 and sleeved on the surface of the positioning post 151. A limiting part 1 is formed on the surface of the positioning post 151. 54. One end of the second return spring 153 is connected to the surface of the limiting part 154. When the two linkage ball valve stop quick connectors 1 are connected, the end face of the valve body 2 pushes the positioning pin 151 into the interior of the connecting groove 16, so that the second receiving ring groove 18 of the positioning pin 151 moves to the position of the positioning bead 152. At the same time, the limiting part 154 of the positioning pin 151 compresses the second return spring 153. When the switch rotary wrench 4 is turned, the positioning bead 152 moves to the second receiving ring groove 18. After the linkage ball valve stop quick connector 1 is disconnected, the second return spring 153 extends back and pushes the positioning pin 151 to move. The inner wall of the second receiving ring groove 18 of the positioning pin 151 squeezes the positioning bead 152, and the moving positioning bead 152 is engaged in the first limiting groove 39 of the switch rotary wrench 4. At this time, the switch rotary wrench 4 of the linkage ball valve stop quick connector 1 cannot be rotated, which plays a foolproof role and prevents accidental contact with the switch rotary wrench 4, so that the linkage ball valve stop quick connector 1 is in a closed state and cannot be supplied with liquid.

[0041] The valve body 2 has a through hole 19 for mounting a switch rotary wrench 4. The switch rotary wrench 4 has a second limiting groove 20. A fixing bolt 21 is installed on the inner wall of the second limiting groove 20. The ball 3 has a second retaining groove 22. The inner wall of the second retaining groove 22 has a threaded groove 23. One end of the switch rotary wrench 4 is engaged with the inner wall of the second retaining groove 22. The inner wall of the threaded groove 23 is threadedly connected to one end of the fixing bolt 21. A first sealing ring 24 is connected to the surface of the fixing bolt 21. The inner wall of the first sealing ring 24 is connected to the inner wall of the second limiting groove 20. A second sealing ring 25 is provided on the surface of the switch rotary wrench. The surface of the second sealing ring 25 is connected to the inner wall of the through hole 19.

[0042] A support groove 26 is provided on the surface of the ball 3 away from the switch rotary wrench 4, and a fixing groove 27 is provided on the inner wall of the valve body 2 at a position corresponding to the support groove 26. A positioning spring 28 is provided on the inner wall of the fixing groove 27, and a rotating shaft 29 is provided at one end of the positioning spring 28. One end of the rotating shaft 29 is inserted into the inner wall of the fixing groove 27. The rotating shaft 29 supports the ball 3, so that the ball 3 remains stable during rotation.

[0043] A first sealing gasket 30 is installed on the end face of the valve body 2, and a second sealing gasket 31 is provided on the inner wall of the valve body 2. The second sealing gasket 31 is connected to the surface of the ball 3, and a protective ring 32 is provided on the surface of the valve body 2.

[0044] A connecting pipe 33 is installed at one end of the valve body 2. One end of the connecting pipe 33 is inserted into the interior of the valve body 2. At least one mounting hole 34 is opened on the surface of the valve body 2. A positioning hole 35 is opened on the surface of the connecting pipe 33 at the position corresponding to the mounting hole 34. A positioning pin 36 is inserted into the inner wall of the mounting hole 34. One end of the positioning pin 36 is inserted into the inner wall of the positioning hole 35. A first sealing ring 37 and a second sealing ring 38 are respectively installed on the surface of the connecting pipe 33, and the surfaces of the first sealing ring 37 and the second sealing ring 38 are both connected to the inner wall of the valve body 2.

[0045] Two identical quick-connect ball valve stop connectors 1 are used. The limiting member 5 on one valve housing 2 is inserted into the inner wall of the mating groove 6 on the other valve housing 2. Rotating one of the quick-connect ball valve stop connectors 1 by 145° aligns the two arrows on it. At this point, the limiting member 5 hooks into the inside of the mating groove 6. After the quick-connect ball valve stop connectors 1 are connected, the push lever 412 on the rotary wrench 4 is pushed to the receiving groove 40. The push lever 412 compresses the first return spring 411, and simultaneously the first receiving ring groove 415 moves to the position of the limiting bead 413, allowing the limiting bead 413, which is engaged in the first positioning groove 43, to move to the position of the first positioning groove 413. Within the receiving annular groove 415, the switch rotary wrench 4 can be rotated. The rotation angle of the switch rotary wrench 4 is 90°. Releasing the push rod 412 causes the first return spring 411 to push the push rod 412 back to its original position. The inner wall of the first receiving annular groove 415 presses against the limiting bead 413, pushing the limiting bead 413 into the second positioning groove 44, locking the position of the switch rotary wrench 4. This prevents the switch rotary wrench 4 from rotating back under excessive pressure or vibration. After rotating the switch rotary wrench 4, the ball 3 is fully opened and successfully connected. The outer surface of the switch rotary wrench 4 raises the anti-reverse lever. 81. The anti-reverse levers 81 are locked in the two corresponding locking grooves 7, preventing the two valve bodies 2 from reversing and opening each other when the quick-connect coupling 1 is in the connected and fluid-flowing state, thus avoiding fluid leakage from the joint. When the joint needs to be disconnected, the switch wrench 4 of the quick-connect coupling 1 must first be rotated to the closed position, pushing the spring 14 to push the anti-reverse levers 81 to reset and leave the locking grooves 7 before the quick-connect coupling 1 can be rotated to disconnect the connection. When the two quick-connect couplings 1 are connected, the end face of the valve body 2 pushes the positioning pin 151 into the interior of the connecting groove 16, causing the second receiving annular groove 18 of the positioning pin 151 to move to the positioning position. At the position of bead 152, the limiting part 154 of the positioning column 151 compresses the second return spring 153. When the switch rotary wrench 4 is turned, the positioning bead 152 moves to the second receiving annular groove 18. After the linkage ball valve shut-off quick connector 1 is disconnected, the second return spring 153 extends back and pushes the positioning column 151 to move. The inner wall of the second receiving annular groove 18 of the positioning column 151 squeezes the positioning bead 152, and the moving positioning bead 152 is engaged in the first limiting groove 39 of the switch rotary wrench 4. At this time, the switch rotary wrench 4 of the linkage ball valve shut-off quick connector 1 cannot be rotated, which plays a foolproof role and prevents accidental activation of the switch rotary wrench 4, so that the linkage ball valve shut-off quick connector 1 is in a closed state and cannot be supplied with liquid.
