[0002] As a safety accessory for storage tanks, the breather valve functions to reduce the evaporation loss of volatile liquids in atmospheric and low-pressure storage tanks. The breather valve not only maintains the pressure balance within the tank, ensuring protection from damage under overpressure and negative pressure, but also utilizes the tank's own pressure-bearing capacity to reduce the evaporation and loss of the medium inside, playing a crucial role in both safety and environmental protection. However, existing breather valves suffer from poor sealing performance, leading to blockages and impaired air intake or exhaust flow. Furthermore, repairs are inconvenient after damage. Therefore, we need to propose a breather valve sealing mechanism and a breather valve itself. Utility Model Content

[0005] Preferably, the sealing mechanism includes: a mounting sleeve connected to the center position of the mounting cover plate, and a first spring fitted onto the surface of the mounting sleeve; wherein, the top end of the air outlet valve disc is connected to a first valve stem, the top end of the first valve stem is slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting sleeve, and the bottom end of the first spring is connected to the top of the air outlet valve disc.

[0006] Preferably, the bottom of the exhaust valve disc is provided with a counterweight chamber for auxiliary sealing, and the inner wall of the counterweight chamber is detachably connected with a sealing plunger, the bottom end of which is sealed to the exhaust port of the exhaust valve seat.

[0019] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides: a breathing valve sealing mechanism and a breathing valve, including a valve body 1 and a first through pipe 2 and a second through pipe 3 installed on the surface of the valve body 1. The inner cavities of the first through pipe 2 and the second through pipe 3 are respectively provided with an exhaust valve seat 4 and an intake valve seat 15. The inside of the first through pipe 2 is provided with an exhaust valve disc 8 that cooperates with the exhaust valve seat 4 for exhaust. The top of the exhaust valve disc 8 is provided with a detachable mounting cover plate 6. The top of the inner cavity of the mounting cover plate 6 is provided with a sealing mechanism that cooperates with the exhaust valve disc 8. The bottom of the exhaust valve disc 8 is provided with a sealing plunger 12 to improve the sealing effect. The bottom end of the mounting cover plate 6 is provided with a dustproof and exhaust-proof annular filter element 14. The inside of the second through pipe 3 is provided with an intake valve disc 18 that cooperates with the intake valve seat 15 for intake. The bottom of the intake valve disc 18 is provided with a protective filter disc 20 for intake protection.

[0020] It is worth noting that the coordinated arrangement of the valve body 1, the first through pipe 2, the second through pipe 3, the mounting cover plate 6, the exhaust valve disc 8, the sealing plunger 12, and the sealing mechanism can further improve the sealing effect of the breather valve, effectively ensure the smoothness of the breather valve's intake or exhaust, improve the breather valve's performance, and facilitate the repair of the valve disc structure after the breather valve is damaged, thus improving maintenance efficiency.

[0021] Specifically, the sealing mechanism includes: a mounting sleeve 7 connected to the center of the mounting cover plate 6, and a first spring 10 fitted onto the surface of the mounting sleeve 7; wherein, the top end of the exhaust valve disc 8 is connected to a first valve stem 9, the top end of the first valve stem 9 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting sleeve 7, and the bottom end of the first spring 10 is connected to the top of the exhaust valve disc 8. The bottom of the exhaust valve disc 8 is provided with a counterweight chamber 11 for auxiliary sealing, and a sealing plunger 12 is detachably connected to the inner wall of the counterweight chamber 11, the bottom end of the sealing plunger 12 being sealed to the exhaust port of the exhaust valve seat 4.

[0022] Furthermore, the mounting cover plate 6 is a structure for installing the exhaust valve disc 8, the mounting sleeve 7 cooperates with the first valve stem 9 to install the exhaust valve disc 8 and also serves as a guide and limiter, the first spring 10 cooperates with the mounting sleeve 7 to press the exhaust valve disc 8, improving the sealing effect of the bottom of the exhaust valve disc 8 in contact with the exhaust valve seat 4, the sealing plunger 12 is a structure that cooperates with the inner wall of the exhaust valve seat 4 to seal, and the counterweight cavity 11 is a connecting structure for installing the sealing plunger 12.

[0023] The bottom of the mounting cover plate 6 is connected to a connecting frame 13, and the annular filter element 14 is movably installed inside the connecting frame 13. The inner wall of the first pipe 2 is provided with an exhaust groove 5. The connecting frame 13 is a structure for installing the annular filter element 14 and is connected to the surface of the valve body 1. The exhaust groove 5 is used to discharge the gas inside the first pipe 2.

[0024] When exhaust is required, the air pressure pushes the exhaust valve disc 8 upward through the exhaust valve seat 4 of the valve body 1 to form an exhaust channel. When negative pressure intake occurs, the exhaust valve disc 8 will be subjected to gravity, negative pressure and the first spring 10 to improve the sealing effect, while the intake valve disc 18 will be affected by negative pressure and will draw the air filtered by the external protective filter disc 20 into the storage tank connected to the valve body 1 through the intake valve seat 15 to ensure the air pressure balance inside the storage tank.

[0025] A fixed cover plate 16 is detachably installed on the top of the second pipe 3 through the mounting hole 21.

[0026] In addition, the mounting hole 21 is a structure for mounting the cover plate 6 and fixing the cover plate 16 by bolt assembly. The structure principle of the intake valve disc 18 and the exhaust valve disc 8 is the same. Similarly, the structure of the fixing cover plate 16 and the mounting cover plate 6 is the same. The protective filter disc 20 filters the air intake of the intake valve seat 15 to ensure the quality of ventilation and prevent impurities from being adsorbed and blocked, which would affect the smooth flow of the breathing valve's intake and exhaust.

[0027] On the other hand, this utility model proposes a breathing valve, including the aforementioned breathing valve sealing mechanism.

[0028] By using the matching structure of the sealing plunger 12 and the counterweight chamber 11, combined with the pressure applied to the outlet valve disc 8 by the first spring 10, a double seal of plunger sealing + valve disc contact can be formed between the outlet valve disc 8 and the outlet valve seat 4, effectively preventing gas leakage and further improving the sealing and control effect of the breather valve; similarly, the structure of the intake valve disc 18 and the outlet valve disc 8 is the same, improving the stability of internal air intake and reducing the evaporation loss of volatile liquids in the storage tank;

[0029] By combining the annular filter element with the outlet groove, and the protective filter disc 20 with the inlet valve seat 15, an external exhaust dust removal channel and an inlet filtration channel can be formed, preventing external pollutants from entering the valve body and effectively reducing the occurrence of blockages. Furthermore, the detachable nature of the mounting cover 6 and the fixing cover 16 allows for convenient inspection and maintenance of the internal structure of the valve body 1, ensuring the service life of the breather valve.
