Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of valves, and more particularly to a deluge valve reset booster. Background Technology
[0002] Deluge valves can control the flow of fire-fighting water in a building's fire hydrant system unidirectionally towards the sprinkler heads, making them a timely and efficient fire-fighting valve. Deluge valves are frequently used in power plant facilities. After activation, deluge valves generally require manual reset by pressing and holding the reset button for approximately 3 minutes. During this process, if the operator becomes exhausted or accidentally releases the button, water will leak from the drain outlet. This leakage will affect the filling speed of the diaphragm chamber, potentially leading to reset failure. Furthermore, the existing deluge valves have a relatively high spring stiffness, resulting in significant resistance when pressing the reset button, making manual pressing extremely strenuous. This method of manually pressing and holding the reset button for an extended period is time-consuming, physically exhausting, and prone to failure due to exhaustion.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to develop an auxiliary device that can help the deluge valve reset. Utility Model Content

[0027] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1 to 3 The provided embodiments further illustrate the deluge valve reset booster proposed in this application.
[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, some embodiments of this application provide a deluge valve reset booster. The deluge valve reset booster includes a rod 100, at least a portion of the surface of the rod 100 is provided with an external thread 110, and one end of the rod 100 is fixedly provided with a snap-fit member 200. The snap-fit member 200 is provided with a U-shaped snap-fit interface for snapping onto a valve pipe. A valve clamping member 300 and a locking nut 400 are movably provided on the rod 100. The valve clamping member 300 is slidably disposed on the rod 100 and is disposed between the snap-fit member 200 and the locking nut 400. The valve clamping member 300 is provided with a clamping part 310 for clamping the valve. The locking nut 400 is provided with an internal thread that mates with the external thread 110 of the rod 100, and the locking nut 400 is threadedly connected to the rod 100. In use, the deluge valve reset booster of this application first engages the snap-fit component 200 onto the valve pipeline to reliably fix the deluge valve reset booster. Then, the valve clamping component 300 is moved along the rod 100, and the clamping part 310 applies pressure to the deluge valve's reset button, keeping the reset button in the pressed state. Finally, the locking nut 400 is rotated to lock the position of the valve clamping component 300. Even if the operator leaves, the clamping part 310 can continue to apply pressure, maintaining the pressed reset button for more than 3 minutes, thus reliably completing the reset task. Since the deluge valve reset process is mostly performed by the deluge valve reset booster, it frees up the operator's hands, saving the operator's time and energy. The deluge valve reset booster of this application can replace the operator in pressing the deluge valve's reset button, making the deluge valve reset stable and reliable, while saving the operator's time and energy.
[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the snap-fit component 200 includes a first connecting portion 210 and a snap-fit portion 230. The first connecting portion 210 has a first slot 211, and the rod 100 is inserted into the first slot 211. The connection between the rod 100 and the snap-fit component 200 can be realized through the above simple structure, which simplifies the overall structure of the deluge valve reset booster and reduces the difficulty of production.
[0030] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this application, the rod 100 and the first slot 211 can be fastened together by an interference fit. This interference fit reduces the number of other components required. Additionally, as... Figure 2 As shown, in some other embodiments of this application, the rod 100 and the first connecting part 210 can be fixed in other ways. Specifically, the first connecting part 210 is provided with a second through hole perpendicular to the first slot 211. The second through hole passes through the first connecting part 210 and the first slot 211. The rod 100 is provided with a third through hole corresponding to the second through hole. The first connecting part 210 also includes a fixing pin 220. The fixing pin 220 is inserted into the second through hole and the third through hole, thereby preventing the rod 100 from coming out of the first slot 211 and realizing the reliable fixation of the rod 100 and the first connecting part 210.
[0031] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the snap-fit portion 230 includes a first assembly 231 and a second assembly 232, which, when combined, form a U-shaped snap-fit interface. The snap-fit portion 230 is composed of two components, which simplifies the structure of each component, facilitates manufacturing, and allows for adjustment of the size of the snap-fit interface by adjusting the distance between the first assembly 231 and the second assembly 232 to accommodate valves and pipes of different sizes.
[0032] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, one of the first assembly 231 and the second assembly 232 is provided with a fourth slot 2311, and an adjusting nut 2312 is provided at the opening of the fourth slot 2311. The adjusting nut 2312 is rotatably disposed. The other of the first assembly 231 and the second assembly 232 is provided with a second connecting rod 2321, and the second connecting rod 2321 is provided with threads. The second connecting rod 2321 is inserted into the fourth slot 2311, and the adjusting nut 2312 is threadedly connected to the second connecting rod 2321, thereby fixing the first assembly 231 and the second assembly 232 together. Rotating the adjusting nut 2312 can adjust the depth of the second connecting rod 2321 inserted into the fourth slot 2311, thereby adjusting the distance between the first assembly 231 and the second assembly 232 and controlling the size of the card interface within a suitable range.
[0033] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the first assembly 231 is L-shaped, and the second assembly 232 is L-shaped or I-shaped. The first assembly 231 and the second assembly 232 adopt the above-described structure, and after the two are combined, it is easier to form a U-shaped card interface.
[0034] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the first assembly 231 and the first connecting part 210 are integrally formed, reducing the number of accessories and installation steps.
[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the valve clamping member 300 is provided with a handle 320, which can be held by the operator to adjust the position of the valve clamping member 300, making it convenient for the operator to operate.
[0036] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the locking nut 400 is a wing nut, and two wing plates 410 are symmetrically arranged on the locking nut 400. This design allows the operator to easily rotate the locking nut 400 and better lock the position of the valve clamping member 300.
[0037] It is understood that the above embodiments only illustrate preferred embodiments of this application, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this application. It should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, without departing from the concept of this application, the above technical features can be freely combined, and several modifications and improvements can be made, all of which fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, all equivalent transformations and modifications made within the scope of the claims of this application should fall within the coverage of the claims of this application.
