Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of check valves, and more specifically, to an axial flow check valve. Background Technology

[0002] Axial flow check valves are a specially designed type of check valve. Their core feature is that fluid flows axially (in the same direction as the pipeline) through the valve, rather than along the right-angle or bend path of traditional check valves. This design significantly reduces flow resistance and pressure loss, making it suitable for high-velocity, high-flow-rate systems or systems sensitive to pressure drop. However, because the fluid in the pipeline typically flows at high speeds, when an axial flow check valve is in operation, the fluid is prone to severe water hammer, which can shorten the service life of the pipeline under long-term water hammer effects.

[0021] This embodiment discloses an axial flow check valve, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, it may include:

[0025] Waterproof hammer assembly 04 is fixedly connected to the valve body assembly 01; waterproof hammer assembly 04 is movably connected to the support assembly 02.

[0026] In this embodiment, by setting up a water hammer prevention assembly 04, when the axial flow check valve closes the pipeline, the water hammer prevention assembly 04 can reduce water hammer, thereby preventing the pipeline from being subjected to excessive impact and thus extending the service life of the pipeline.

[0027] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 , Figure 4 As shown, the valve body assembly 01 includes a valve body 11, a first connecting part 12, and a second connecting part 13; the valve body 11 has an internal hollow cavity structure with openings at both ends; the first connecting part 12 is fixedly connected to one open end of the valve body, and the second connecting part 13 is fixedly connected to the other open end of the valve body 11; the first connecting part 12 and the second connecting part 13 are located outside the hollow cavity of the valve body 11; the support assembly 02 is detachably fixedly connected to the inner circumferential surface of the valve body 11 near the first connecting part 12; the valve assembly 03 is movably connected to the inner circumferential surface of the valve body 11 near the second connecting part 13.

[0028] In this embodiment, the first connecting part 12 and the second connecting part 13 can be flanges, and the first connecting part 12 and the second connecting part 13 can be used to connect with a pipeline.

[0029] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 , Figure 4 As shown, the support assembly 02 includes a support shell 21, a third connecting part 22, a water hammer pipe 23, and a baffle ring 24; one end of the support shell 21 is fixedly connected to the third connecting part 22; one end of the water hammer pipe 23 is fixedly connected to the inner circumferential surface of the support shell 21 near the third connecting part 22; the outer circumferential surface of the baffle ring 24 is fixedly connected to the inner circumferential surface of the water hammer pipe 23 near the third connecting part 22; the third connecting part 22 is detachably fixedly connected to the valve body 11; the support shell 21 is detachably fixedly connected to the valve assembly 03; and the water hammer pipe 23 is movably connected to the water hammer prevention assembly 04.

[0030] In this embodiment, the third connecting part 22 is detachably fixed to the valve body 11 by means of a threaded connection, and the support shell 21 is located inside the valve body 11.

[0031] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 , Figure 4As shown, the valve assembly 03 includes a valve disc 31, a first connecting rod 32, a connecting pipe 33, a first spring 34, a baffle plate 35, a threaded tube 36, and a fourth connecting part 37. One end of the first connecting rod 32 is fixedly connected to the valve disc 31. The first connecting rod 32 passes through the connecting pipe 33. The connecting rod is threadedly connected to the threaded tube 36. The baffle plate 35 is fixedly connected to the outer circumferential surface of the connecting pipe 33. The first spring 34 is sleeved on the first connecting rod 32, with one end abutting against the valve disc 31 and the other end abutting against the baffle plate 35. One end of the threaded tube 36 is fixedly connected to one end face of the fourth connecting part 37. The other end face of the fourth connecting part 37 is fixedly connected to the waterproof hammer assembly 04. The outer circumferential surface of the fourth connecting part 37 is detachably fixedly connected to the inner circumferential surface of the support shell 21. The valve disc 31 is movably connected to the inner circumferential surface of the valve body 11 near the end of the second connecting part 13.

[0032] In this embodiment, when the high-speed fluid in the pipeline impacts the valve disc 31 and squeezes the first spring 34, the valve disc 31 disengages from the valve body 11 and abuts against one end of the support shell 21. The fluid flows in the space between the valve body 11 and the support shell 21. When the fluid velocity decreases, the first spring 34 applies a spring force to the valve disc 31, causing the valve disc 31 to abut against the valve body 11, thereby cutting off the fluid flow in the pipeline.

[0033] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 , Figure 4 As shown, the water hammer assembly 04 includes a damping tube 41, damping fluid (not shown in the figure), a second spring (not shown in the figure), a second connecting rod 42, and a pressure plate 43; the damping tube 41 is fixedly connected to the end of the fourth connecting part 37 away from the valve disc 31; the second spring is disposed inside the damping tube 41; one end of the second spring is fixedly connected to the fourth connecting part 37; the damping fluid is disposed inside the damping tube 41; one end of the second connecting rod 42 is fixedly connected to one end of the pressure plate 43, and the outer peripheral surface of the other end abuts against the inner peripheral surface of the damping tube 41; the outer peripheral surface of the pressure plate 43 abuts against the inner peripheral surface of the water hammer pipe 23.

[0034] In this embodiment, the damping fluid is a fluid with a certain viscosity known to those skilled in the art, which can be applied to the scenario in which this utility model is located and can slow down the extension and retraction speed of the second spring; and the amount of damping fluid can be selected as needed, so that the second spring can slowly release its elastic potential energy.

[0035] The detachable connection method mentioned above can be a threaded connection.

[0036] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0037] When the fluid velocity in the pipeline decreases, under the action of the first spring 34, the valve disc 31 abuts against the valve body 11, thereby cutting off the fluid in the pipeline, which causes water hammer. When the fluid impacts the pressure plate 43, the second connecting rod 42 squeezes the second spring. The second spring and the damping fluid are compressed quickly. When the second spring releases its elastic potential energy, due to the action of the damping fluid, the elastic potential energy of the second spring is released slowly, thereby preventing water hammer from damaging the pipeline.

[0038] Those skilled in the art will understand that the above embodiments are specific examples of implementing this disclosure, and in practical applications, various changes can be made in form and detail without departing from the spirit and scope of this disclosure.
