[0002] With the continuous improvement of industrial automation, single-turn electric valve actuators cannot meet the needs of remote and automatic control, nor can they meet the various complex control requirements in industrial production processes. Therefore, they have been widely used in many industrial fields such as petroleum, chemical, power, and metallurgy. For example, in petrochemical production, traditional electric actuators have some shortcomings; for example, they can only rotate 90 degrees and cannot meet the requirements of multi-turn rotation; and when the connecting screw of the existing electric actuator rotates, the displacement of one end of the screw causes relative displacement between the actuator and the valve body, making it difficult to achieve transmission. Therefore, the above problems need to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0020] Example: See Figure 1-6 This utility model discloses a multi-turn electric valve actuator, comprising a lower housing 1 and an upper housing 6 mounted on the upper end of the lower housing 1. The lower housing 1 facilitates the installation of a support crossarm 2. Support crossarms 2 are mounted on both sides of the bottom surface of the lower housing 1, connecting an auxiliary mechanism and the lower housing 1. An auxiliary mechanism is mounted at the lower end of the support crossarm 2, which helps reduce the device's footprint when the valve is opened. A positioning mounting groove is provided on the top surface of the lower housing 1, and a transmission mechanism is located within the positioning mounting groove. The transmission mechanism facilitates the opening and closing of the valve. The auxiliary mechanism includes an upper movable arm 3 hinged to the inner side of the bottom end of the support crossarm 2 and a lower movable arm 4 hinged to the inner side of the bottom end of the upper movable arm 3, which facilitates height adjustment when cooperating with valve opening and closing. The transmission mechanism includes a worm gear 9 mounted on the top surface of the lower housing 1 and a motor 8 mounted on the upper end of the worm gear 9. Two bearings 13 are rotatably connected to the worm gear 9, and the bottom ends of the two bearings 13 are fixedly connected to the top surface of the lower housing 1.

[0021] In this invention, a first synchronous pulley 10 and a second synchronous pulley 11 are respectively installed on the output shaft of the motor 8 and one end of the worm 9. Two valve connectors 5 are hinged to the outer side of the bottom end of the lower movable arm 4, which facilitates the connection of the device and the valve. The valve connectors 5 are parallel to the lower housing 1, and have two mounting holes for connecting the valve. A synchronous belt 12 is sleeved on the outer side of the first synchronous pulley 10 and the second synchronous pulley 11, which facilitates the motor 8 to drive the worm 9 to rotate. The first synchronous pulley 10 and the second synchronous pulley 11 facilitate the installation of the synchronous belt 12. A worm wheel 14 is engaged with the worm 9 on one side, and a convex-shaped worm wheel center hole 15 is opened through the middle of the worm wheel 14, which facilitates the installation of the lead screw. Multiple auxiliary slots 7 are opened through the worm wheel 14 at equal intervals. The motor 8 is installed on the top surface of the upper housing 6, and a transmission slot for the transmission mechanism is opened through the upper housing 6. The worm wheel 14 is rotatably installed at the center of the top surface of the lower housing 1.

[0022] Working principle: When using this utility model, first connect the power supply and start the motor 8. The motor 8 rotates through the first synchronous pulley 10, and then drives the second synchronous pulley 11 to rotate through the synchronous belt 12, which in turn drives the worm 9 to rotate. With the cooperation of the bearing 13, the worm 9 will not affect the lower housing 1. The worm 9 drives the worm wheel 14 to rotate, and the worm wheel 14 drives the lead screw to rotate. The worm wheel center hole 15 in the center of the worm wheel 14 is conducive to the installation of the lead screw. When the lead screw rotates, the lower housing 1 is displaced due to the thread transmission of the lead screw. When the lower housing 1 is displaced, it will affect the tilt angle between the upper movable arm 3 and the lower movable arm 4. The upper movable arm 3 and the lower movable arm 4 are hinged and folded and compressed, causing the lower housing 1 to drive one end of the lead screw to move. The displacement of the lower housing 1 prevents the lead screw from moving in the opposite direction when it rotates, so that one end of the lead screw always stays in the same position.

[0023] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
