Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gas pressure reduction technology, and more specifically, to a pressure reducing valve body structure. Background Technology
[0002] A pressure reducing valve is a type of valve that reduces the inlet pressure to a desired outlet pressure by adjusting the pressure, and automatically maintains a stable outlet pressure by relying on the energy of the medium itself. It is widely used in many fields such as energy, chemical industry, and gas supply, and is an important piece of equipment to ensure the safe and stable operation of the system. The working principle of the pressure reducing valve is based on the throttling principle in fluid mechanics. By changing the throttling area, the flow velocity and fluid kinetic energy are changed, resulting in pressure loss and thus pressure reduction. At the same time, the pressure fluctuation after the valve is balanced by the control and regulation system, so that it remains constant within the error range.
[0003] The pressure reducing valve has a high-pressure port, a low-pressure port, an adjusting screw, an adjusting spring, a diaphragm, and an adjusting block. During use, loosening the adjusting screw reduces the force exerted by the adjusting spring on the diaphragm, allowing gas to enter the pressure reducing valve through the high-pressure port. This increases the internal pressure, causing the diaphragm to bulge. The diaphragm is fixedly connected to the adjusting block. The bulging of the diaphragm causes the regulating valve to seal the high-pressure port. When the internal pressure decreases, the pressure at the high-pressure port pushes up the adjusting block, causing the diaphragm to sag, allowing high pressure to re-enter the pressure reducing valve. However, since there is no connection between the adjusting spring and the diaphragm, a certain degree of misalignment may occur between them during the long-term bulging and sag process. This can prevent the adjusting screw from effectively regulating the pressure in the pressure reducing valve.
[0004] Therefore, a new solution is needed to address this problem. Utility Model Content

[0020] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] In one possible embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, a pressure reducing valve body structure includes an upper valve body 1 and a lower valve body 2 threadedly connected to the upper valve body 1. The lower valve body 2 is provided with a low-pressure port 4, a high-pressure port 5, and an adjusting block 7. The adjusting block 7 is rotatably engaged with the lower valve body 2. High pressure enters from the high-pressure port 5, is reduced in pressure by the pressure reducing valve body, and then outputs through the low-pressure port 4. A diaphragm is installed between the upper valve body 1 and the lower valve body 2. One end of the adjusting block 7 is fixedly connected to the diaphragm 6, and the end of the adjusting block 7 away from the diaphragm 6 abuts against the high-pressure port 5. An adjusting screw 8 is threadedly connected to the upper end of the upper valve body 1 above the diaphragm 6. The lower end of the adjusting screw 8 abuts against an adjusting spring 9, and the lower end of the adjusting spring 9 abuts against the diaphragm 6, thereby reducing pressure. When using the pressure reducing valve, loosening the adjusting screw 8 reduces the force exerted by the adjusting spring 9 on the diaphragm 6, allowing the high pressure to cause the diaphragm 6 to bulge. Adjusting the adjusting screw 8 changes the pressure reduction of the pressure reducing valve. The diaphragm 6 is made of rubber and has a certain deformation capacity, making it easy to bulge and concave under air pressure. The lower valve body 2 has protrusions 17 on both sides, and the two ends of the diaphragm 6 have through holes 20 that engage with the protrusions 17. The engagement between the protrusions 17 and the through holes 20 allows the lower valve body 2 to limit the diaphragm 6, preventing it from falling off during repeated bulging and ensuring the seal between the diaphragm 6 and the lower valve body 2.
[0022] For further details, please refer to Figure 1As shown, the lower end of the adjusting screw 8 is fixedly connected to an abutment block 19 that abuts against the adjusting spring 9. The upper valve body 1 is provided with a slot 3 that slides with the abutment block 19. By providing the slot 3, the contact area between the adjusting screw 8 and the adjusting spring 9 can be increased, causing the adjusting spring 9 to compress. The depth of the slot 3 is greater than the length of the adjusting screw 8, thereby ensuring that the adjusting spring 9 will not separate from the slot 3 when the adjusting screw 8 compresses the adjusting spring 9.
[0023] For further details, please refer to Figure 1 As shown, a support base 15 is fixedly connected inside the valve body 1. The adjusting block 7 is hinged to the support base 15. A connector 18 is hinged to the end of the adjusting block 7 away from the high-pressure port 5. The upper end of the connector 18 is fixedly connected to the diaphragm 6. A sealing plug 16 is provided at the end of the adjusting block 7 that abuts against the high-pressure port 5. The sealing plug 16 abuts against the high-pressure port 5, thus forming a lever principle inside the valve body 1. When the air pressure inside the valve body 1 is too high, the diaphragm 6 bulges up, causing the end connected to it to rise, so that the sealing plug 16 abuts against the high-pressure port 5, preventing high pressure from entering. When the air pressure inside the valve body 1 decreases, the diaphragm 6 becomes concave, causing the end connected to it to fall, causing the sealing plug 16 to disengage from the high-pressure port 5, so that high pressure can continue to enter the valve body 1. The sealing plug 16 can ensure the sealing of the adjusting block 7 against the high-pressure port 5, effectively preventing the continuous inflow of high pressure.
[0024] For further details, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the lower end of the adjusting spring 9 is engaged with the diaphragm 6. By engaging the lower end of the adjusting spring 9 with the diaphragm 6, the diaphragm 6 will not misalign with the adjusting spring 9 during repeated bulging and deflection. This allows the operator to precisely adjust the pressure reducing valve using the adjusting screw 8. The adjusting spring 9 includes horizontal spring coils 10 on both sides and an inclined spring coil 11 in the middle. The upper horizontal spring coil 10 is engaged with the slot 3, thereby limiting the upper end of the adjusting spring 9. The upper end of the diaphragm 6 is fixedly connected with four annularly distributed limiting members 12. The inner side of each limiting member 12 has... A limiting groove 13 is provided to engage with the horizontal spring coil 10. The limiting member 12 is also made of rubber, so it can also deform without affecting the normal bulging and denting of the diaphragm 6. The limiting groove 13 and the horizontal spring coil 10 can be engaged by prying it outward, making the engagement of the adjusting spring 9 and the diaphragm 6 simple and convenient. An arc-shaped baffle 14 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the limiting member 12 located in the limiting groove 13. The baffle 14 can further limit the horizontal spring coil 10, making it difficult for the horizontal spring coil 10 to separate from the limiting member 12. Moreover, the arc shape ensures that the baffle 14 will not affect the horizontal spring coil 10 during the engagement process.
