Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a swing check valve, belonging to the field of valve technology. Background Technology

[0002] A valve is a device used to control the flow of fluids (such as gases or liquids), and it is widely used in various systems in industry, construction, and daily life. The basic function of a valve is to open and close fluid passages in pipelines, or to regulate the flow rate and pressure of fluids.

[0003] In the prior art, Chinese utility model patent CN221463011U discloses a "swing check valve", which includes a valve body with a valve cover installed at the upper end. A rocker arm can drive a valve disc installed at the lower end to open or close. This device has a limit post installed at the lower end of the valve cover. When fluid flows through and opens the valve disc, the valve disc is pushed, and the rocker arm connected to it drives the valve disc to open or close. In order to control the opening limit of the valve disc and prevent it from hitting the inner wall of the valve body, the device is equipped with a limit post at the lower end of the valve cover. The function of this limit post is to limit the movement range of the valve disc by contacting it with the rocker arm when the valve disc reaches the maximum opening height. This avoids the valve disc from causing impact damage to the valve body. Over time, the rocker arm may wear out due to repeated impacts with the limit post. When the rocker arm wears out, only the rocker arm needs to be replaced, without replacing the entire valve body, thus reducing maintenance costs.

[0004] While the aforementioned patents may include a limiting post to prevent impact damage between the valve disc and the valve body, the impact on the rocker arm can cause damage, shortening its lifespan. Therefore, this invention proposes a swing check valve. Utility Model Content

[0005] Based on the above background, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a swing check valve to solve the problems in the background art.

[0006] This utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A swing check valve includes a valve body with a valve cover mounted on its upper end. The valve cover is connected to the valve body via a flange using a plurality of hexagonal bolts and a plurality of nuts. A buffer mechanism is provided on one side of the bottom of the valve cover. The buffer mechanism includes a threaded post fixedly connected to the bottom of the valve cover and a telescopic sleeve threaded onto the threaded post. The telescopic sleeve has a telescopic hole at its end away from the threaded post. A telescopic cavity is provided inside the telescopic hole. A limit post is telescopically installed inside the telescopic cavity. A piston is provided at one end of the limit post located inside the telescopic cavity. A set of sealing rings is fitted on the outer cylindrical surface of the piston. A spring is provided between the piston and the threaded post. The spring is located inside the telescopic cavity, which is also filled with damping oil.

[0008] Preferably, an annular sealing gasket is provided at the connection between the valve cover and the valve body.

[0009] Preferably, the valve body is provided with a rocker arm inside, and a valve disc is installed at the lower end of the rocker arm.

[0010] Preferably, a groove is provided on the inner wall of the valve body near the rocker arm end, and a valve seat is provided in the groove.

[0011] Preferably, the valve disc can abut against the valve seat under the influence of the counterflowing fluid and its own gravity, thereby preventing fluid backflow.

[0012] Preferably, a buffer pad is provided on the end of the limiting post away from the piston.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0014] This utility model discloses a swing check valve. By setting a buffer mechanism, when the fluid flows through and opens the valve disc, the valve disc is pushed by the rocker arm to move, causing the valve disc to either come into contact with or lose contact with the valve seat. When the rocker arm comes into contact with the limit post, the impact force between the rocker arm and the limit post can be reduced by the buffer of the spring, buffer pad and damping oil, avoiding damage to the rocker arm due to excessive impact and reducing the service life of the rocker arm.
