Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of expansion valve technology, and in particular to a novel electronic expansion valve body assembly. Background Technology

[0002] In refrigeration systems, the electronic expansion valve is a critical component, and its sealing performance directly affects whether refrigerant will leak, thus impacting the overall efficiency and safety of the refrigeration system. Currently, common integrated electronic expansion valve body assemblies often use a single molding or simple fixing method where the valve core sleeve, fixing sleeve, and valve body are integrally formed. The sealing structure relies on only a few sealing rings, resulting in insufficient tightness between components. This makes it difficult to meet the sealing requirements under harsh operating conditions, and refrigerant leaks frequently occur. Furthermore, because components such as the guide seat, baffle plate, and valve core sleeve inside the valve body assembly are difficult to disassemble after assembly, when the electronic expansion valve is damaged, maintenance personnel cannot easily remove internal components for maintenance and replacement. Often, the entire valve needs to be replaced, which not only wastes resources but also significantly increases operating costs and severely limits the lifespan of the electronic expansion valve. Therefore, developing an electronic expansion valve body assembly with excellent sealing performance and ease of maintenance has become an urgent problem to be solved in the industry. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to at least solve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art, and to provide a novel electronic expansion valve body assembly. The valve core sleeve and the fixed sleeve are installed on the valve body via a threaded connection. During installation, the guide plate is compressed, causing the guide seat and the sealing ring located inside the valve body to fit tightly against the valve body, thereby improving the valve body's sealing performance. Three sets of sealing rings are provided to ensure tight connection of all components installed on the valve body, further improving the device's sealing performance and preventing refrigerant leakage. Furthermore, the guide seat, guide plate, and valve core sleeve installed inside the valve body can be quickly assembled and disassembled, allowing each component in the valve body to be removed for maintenance and replacement. This avoids the difficulty in repairing existing integrated electronic expansion valves after damage, and improves the service life of the electronic expansion valve.

[0004] This utility model also provides a valve body assembly of a novel electronic expansion valve, comprising: a valve body, a guide seat fixedly connected to the lower bottom wall of the valve body, a sealing ring one fixedly connected to the side surface of the guide seat, a guide plate fixedly connected to the upper surface of the guide seat, a valve core sleeve attached to the upper surface of the guide plate, a sealing ring two fixedly connected to the side surface of the valve core sleeve, a fixed sleeve movably connected to the side surface of the valve core sleeve, and a sealing ring three fixedly connected to the side surface of the fixed sleeve;

[0009] According to the present invention, in a novel electronic expansion valve body assembly, the lower surface of the retaining ring is fitted with the valve body, and the sealing ring three is located between the retaining ring and the valve body. The retaining ring presses the sealing ring three into the valve body, thereby enhancing the sealing effect of the sealing ring three.

[0010] According to the present invention, a novel electronic expansion valve body assembly comprises a valve core rod whose side surface is threadedly connected to a valve core sleeve, and a positioning spring whose end is furthest from the valve core rod is fixedly connected to the valve core sleeve.

Furthermore, the guide seat, guide plate, and valve core sleeve installed inside the valve body can be quickly assembled and disassembled, allowing for easy removal of components for maintenance and replacement. This avoids the difficulty of repairing existing integrated electronic expansion valves after damage, thus extending the service life of the electronic expansion valve. Attached Figure Description

[0023] This section will describe in detail the specific embodiments of the present utility model. The preferred embodiments of the present utility model are shown in the accompanying drawings. The purpose of the drawings is to supplement the textual description with graphics, so that people can intuitively and vividly understand each technical feature and the overall technical solution of the present utility model, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0024] Reference Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a novel electronic expansion valve body assembly, comprising: a valve body 1, a guide seat 6 fixedly connected to the lower bottom wall of the valve body 1, a sealing ring 7 fixedly connected to the side surface of the guide seat 6, a guide plate 8 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the guide seat 6, a positioning block 9 fixedly connected to the side surface of the guide plate 8, the side surface of the positioning block 9 fixedly connected to the valve body 1, a valve core sleeve 18 attached to the upper surface of the guide plate 8, the side surface of the valve core sleeve 18 threadedly connected to the valve body 1, a sealing ring 12 fixedly connected to the side surface of the valve core sleeve 18, the sealing ring 12 being located between the valve core sleeve 18 and the valve body 1, a fixing sleeve 13 movably connected to the side surface of the valve core sleeve 18, the side surface of the fixing sleeve 13 threadedly connected to the valve body 1, and a sealing ring 14 fixedly connected to the side surface of the fixing sleeve 13.

[0025] Specifically, before use, the guide plate 8 and guide seat 6 are inserted into the valve body 1, and the positioning block 9 on the guide plate 8 is locked into the slot in the valve body 1 to fix the position and direction of the guide plate 8 and guide seat 6. Then, the fixing sleeve 13 is put on the outside of the valve core sleeve 18, and the valve core sleeve 18 is fixed to the valve body 1 by using the external thread of the valve core sleeve 18. During this process, the bottom of the valve core sleeve 18 is pressed against the upper part of the guide plate 8, and the guide plate 8 is squeezed, so that the sealing ring 1 7 is tightly locked into the connection between the guide seat 6 and the valve body 1. At the same time, the sealing ring 2 12 will also be tightly fitted with the valve body 1. Then, the fixing sleeve 13 is also installed into the valve body 1 and the valve core sleeve 18 and sealing ring 2 12 are squeezed in the same way. By setting three sets of sealing rings, the sealing performance of the electronic expansion valve is enhanced, and the various parts in the valve body assembly can be disassembled, which facilitates quick assembly and maintenance.

[0026] A stator coil 5 is provided on the side surface of the valve core sleeve 18. A valve core rod 15 is threadedly connected to the inner side wall of the valve core sleeve 18. The side surface of the valve core rod 15 is threadedly connected to the valve core sleeve 18. A positioning spring 17 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the valve core rod 15. The end of the positioning spring 17 away from the valve core rod 15 is fixedly connected to the valve core sleeve 18. A support spring 11 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the valve core rod 15. A valve core end 10 is fixedly connected to the end of the support spring 11 away from the valve core rod 15.

[0027] Specifically, during use, the stator coil 5 is activated to allow the valve core rod 15 to rotate inside the valve core sleeve 18. The threads on the valve core rod 15 allow it to move vertically along the valve core sleeve 18. The valve core rod 15 and the support spring 11 drive the valve core end 10 to rise, opening the guide seat 6 and allowing the refrigerant entering the guide plate 8 to flow out from the opening of the guide seat 6. During use, the positioning spring 17 is stretched to keep the movement of the valve core rod 15 stable. When reset is required, the support spring 11 drives the valve core rod 15 to push the valve core end 10 back to its original position, and provides a certain buffering effect for the valve core end 10 when the refrigerant flows through the guide plate 8.

[0028] A fixing ring 3 is fixedly connected to the side surface of the fixing sleeve 13. The lower surface of the fixing ring 3 is in contact with the valve body 1. The sealing ring 3 14 is located between the fixing ring 3 and the valve body 1. A plug 16 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the stator coil 5. The side surface of the plug 16 is fixedly connected to the support frame 2. The support frame 2 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the stator coil 5. The support frame 2 is fixedly connected to the valve body 1 by screws 4.

[0029] Specifically, a fixing ring 3 is provided on the fixing sleeve 13, and a sealing ring 3 14 is located below the fixing ring 3. When the fixing sleeve 13 is fixed to the valve body 1 and tightened, the fixing ring 3 will squeeze the sealing ring 3 14 from above, making the sealing ring 3 14 fit tightly with the valve body 1 and improving the sealing effect of the sealing ring 3 14. At the bottom of the stator coil 5, there is a plug 16 that can be inserted into the insertion hole in the support frame 2. When installing the stator coil 5, the stator coil 5 is clamped onto the support frame 2 by the plug 16, and then the support frame 2 is fixed to the valve body 1 by screws 4, thereby fixing the position of the stator coil 5 so that it can control the rotation of the valve core rod 15.

[0030] Working principle: Before use, the guide seat 6, valve core sleeve 18 and fixed sleeve 13 can be installed into the valve body 1 in sequence. The valve core sleeve 18 and the fixed sleeve 13 are connected by threads to press the guide seat 6 and the valve core sleeve 18 together, and the sealing ring 1 7 and the sealing ring 2 12 can fit tightly with the valve body 1. After installation, the position of the stator coil 5 is fixed by the support frame 2, and the stator coil 5 is started to drive the valve core rod 15 to move, so that the valve core end 10 is separated from the guide seat 6, so that the refrigerant can flow into the guide plate 8 and be discharged from the guide seat 6. After use, the valve body assembly can be quickly disassembled and its parts replaced and repaired.

[0031] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
