[0002] In an absorption heat pump secondary network heating system, valves are used to control the flow of the medium, regulate the flow rate / pressure, and ensure the safe and stable operation of the system.
[0003] During the use of valves, in extreme winter weather, in order to prevent valves and pipelines from cracking or jamming due to residual water freezing in low-temperature environments, valve protection devices are installed on the outside of the valves.
[0004] However, most existing valve protection devices use insulation cotton to wrap the valve or install antifreeze covers on the outside of the valve. The antifreeze covers are fixed with bolts. When maintenance personnel need to repair or replace the valve, they have to repeatedly unscrew the bolts, which takes a long time to remove the antifreeze covers and affects the maintenance efficiency. Therefore, a valve antifreeze protection device based on absorption heat pump secondary network heating is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a valve antifreeze protection device based on absorption heat pump secondary network heating. By unscrewing the locking pin bottom end of the locking block from the inside of the receiving groove, the locking pin passes through the receiving groove, the through groove and the through hole on the surface of the insert block and is in contact with the inner bottom surface of the locking groove. Then, the locking block on the outer arc surface of the locking pin is screwed into the inside of the locking groove and engaged with the locking groove to fix the two sets of antifreeze covers, thereby solving the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0007] A valve antifreeze protection device based on absorption heat pump secondary network heating.
[0008] It includes a valve body and an antifreeze cover for protecting the valve body from freezing, wherein the antifreeze cover is respectively fitted on both sides of the valve body;

The side wall of the second fixing block is provided with an insert block. The side wall of the first fixing block has a slot corresponding to the insert block. The surface of the insert block has a through hole. The bottom end of the locking pin passes through the receiving groove, the through groove and the through hole and is attached to the inner bottom surface of the slot. The locking pin is rotated to make the slot block engage inside the slot.
[0014] Preferably, a storage groove is provided above the slot inside the first fixing block for storing the locking pin when not in use, and the storage groove and the slot are connected by a through groove.
[0015] Preferably, the cross-sections of the through groove and through hole correspond to the cross-section of the bottom end of the locking pin, and the cross-sections of the receiving groove and the card slot are both fan-shaped and located on the same vertical line.

[0028] 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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0029] Please see Figures 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution:
[0030] A valve antifreeze protection device based on absorption heat pump secondary network heating.
[0031] It includes a valve body 1 and an antifreeze cover 2 for protecting the valve body 1 from freezing. The antifreeze cover 2 is respectively fitted on both sides of the valve body 1.
[0032] The first fixing block 3 and the second fixing block 4 are symmetrically installed on the top of the antifreeze cover 2 on both sides of the valve body 1, respectively;
[0033] It also includes a locking mechanism 5, which is used to lock and fix the first fixing block 3 and the second fixing block 4.
[0034] Locking mechanism 5 includes,
[0035] A locking pin 16 for inserting and locking the second fixing block 4 and a slot 15 for engaging the locking block 17 provided on the outer arc surface of the bottom end of the locking pin 16;
[0036] The top of the first fixing block 3 has a round hole 11 for the locking pin 16 to be inserted into the interior of the first fixing block 3. The side wall of the second fixing block 4 is provided with a plug 9. The side wall of the first fixing block 3 has a slot 14 corresponding to the plug 9. The surface of the plug 9 has a through hole 10. The bottom end of the locking pin 16 is inserted through the receiving groove 12, the through groove 13 and the through hole 10 and attached to the inner bottom surface of the slot 15. The locking pin 16 is rotated to make the slot 17 engage inside the slot 15.
[0037] One of the antifreeze covers 2 has a post 6 on its side wall, and the other antifreeze cover 2 has a hole 7 on its side wall corresponding to the post 6, which is used to position the two sets of antifreeze covers 2 during installation.
[0038] The interiors of the two sets of antifreeze covers 2 are insulated with materials such as rubber and plastic or rock wool to reduce heat loss from the internal valve body 1, thus providing antifreeze protection for the valve body 1. A locking pin 16 is inserted into a round hole 11 at the top of the first fixing block 3. A locking block 17 on the outer arc surface of the bottom end of the locking pin 16 engages with a slot 15 at the bottom of the first fixing block 3. A slot 14 is provided above the slot 15 for inserting a plug 9 from the side wall of the second fixing block 4. A through hole 10 corresponding to the cross-section of the bottom end of the locking pin 16 is formed on the surface of the plug 9. When installing the antifreeze cover 2, the plug 9 is inserted... After being inserted into the slot 14, the worker presses the locking pin 16 into the slot 15 inside the first fixing block 3. At this time, the locking pin 16 passes through the storage slot 12, the through slot 13 and the through hole 10 on the surface of the insert block 9 and contacts the inner bottom surface of the slot 15. When it can no longer be pressed, the worker rotates the locking pin 16 to screw the locking block 17 on the side wall of the locking pin 16 into the slot 15. After rotating it to 90 degrees, the slot 15 and the locking block 17 are engaged, so as to fix the second fixing block 4 into the slot 14 on the side wall of the first fixing block 3, and further realize the installation of the two sets of antifreeze covers 2 on the outside of the valve body 1.
[0039] When disassembling the antifreeze cover 2, the worker uses a tool to rotate the locking pin 16 in the opposite direction, unscrews the locking block 17 from the slot 15, and then pulls the locking pin 16 upwards until it can no longer be pulled out. By rotating the locking pin 16, the slot 15 on the outer arc surface of the locking pin 16 is screwed into the storage slot 12 to store the locking pin 16. At this time, the insert 9 is disengaged from the locking pin 16, and the two antifreeze covers 2 on both sides are pulled outwards respectively, thus disassembling the antifreeze cover 2 without the need for the worker to repeatedly tighten the bolts, which is more time-saving and labor-saving.
[0040] Furthermore, the side walls of the two sets of antifreeze covers 2 that are in contact with each other are respectively provided with insert posts 6 and insert holes 7 corresponding to the insert posts 6. When the workers install the antifreeze covers 2, they insert the insert posts 6 into the inside of the insert holes 7 to position the two sets of antifreeze covers 2 during installation. At the same time, after the antifreeze covers 2 are installed, they are supported by inserting the insert posts 6 into the inside of the insert holes 7.
[0041] A storage slot 12 is provided above the slot 14 inside the first fixing block 3 for storing the locking pin 16 when not in use. The storage slot 12 and the slot 14 are connected by a through slot 13.
[0042] A storage groove 12 is provided above the slot 14 and below the round hole 11 for storing the locking pin 16 when not in use. When the worker removes the antifreeze cover 2 on both sides of the valve body 1, during the disassembly process, the worker will unscrew the locking block 17 on the outer arc surface of the locking pin 16 into the groove 15 and pull it upward. At this time, the locking pin 16 will be pulled out to the position of the storage groove 12. The worker will then rotate the locking pin 16 and screw the groove 15 on the outer arc surface of the locking pin 16 into the storage groove 12, so that the storage groove 12 and the locking block 17 are engaged, thus meeting the requirement of storing and fixing the locking pin 16 and preventing the locking pin 16 from being lost after disassembly, which would affect the subsequent installation of the antifreeze cover 2.
[0043] The cross-sections of the through groove 13 and through hole 10 correspond to the bottom cross-section of the locking pin 16. The cross-sections of the receiving groove 12 and the slot 15 are both fan-shaped and located on the same vertical line. This ensures that when the locking block 17 on the outer arc surface of the locking pin 16 is screwed out from inside the receiving groove 12 and pressed down, the bottom end of the locking pin 16 passes through the through groove 13 and through hole 10 respectively, so as to insert and fix the plug 9. Then, by rotating the locking pin 16, the locking block 17 on the outer arc surface of the locking pin 16 is screwed into the inside of the slot 15, thereby locking and fixing the plug 9.
[0044] The top of the locking pin 16 has a cross groove 18, which makes it easy for workers to rotate the locking pin 16 using a Phillips screwdriver. The top of the locking pin 16 is provided with an indicator needle 19, which is located on the same vertical line as the locking block 17, and is used by workers to confirm the position of the internal locking block 17.
[0045] Furthermore, the worker uses a Phillips screwdriver to insert into the Phillips groove 18 at the top of the locking pin 16 and rotates the locking pin 16 so that the locking block 17 on the outer arc surface of the locking pin 16 can engage with the slot 15 and the storage slot 12 respectively, thereby fixing and removing the insert 9 and storing the locking pin 16.
[0046] The inner wall of the antifreeze cover 2, which is in contact with the water pipes on both sides of the valve body 1, is provided with sealing strips 8 to ensure the sealing between the valve body 1 and the antifreeze cover 2.
[0047] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described above, it is understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make changes, modifications, substitutions and variations to the above embodiments within the scope of the present invention.
