Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air conditioning shut-off valve technology, specifically an air conditioning shut-off valve insulation and protection sleeve. Background Technology

[0002] An air conditioning shut-off valve mainly consists of a valve body, valve stem, valve disc, valve seat, and sealing components. The valve body serves as the fluid passage, while the valve stem connects the valve disc to the drive device. By raising and lowering the valve stem, the fit between the valve disc and the valve seat is changed, thus achieving on / off switching and flow regulation. Its sealing components include O-rings, the conical surfaces of the valve core and valve seat, and the contact surface between the cap and valve body, all made of materials such as hydrogenated nitrile rubber to ensure a tight seal. This valve allows for unidirectional flow and has relatively high resistance, making it suitable for throttling and flow regulation. Applications include controlling refrigerant flow, vacuuming, and refrigerant charging in air conditioning systems, as well as regulating hot water flow in heating systems. It is a key component for the connection and operation control of air conditioning equipment.

[0003] In existing usage scenarios, air conditioner shut-off valves are often directly exposed to the outside. This condition causes the valve body to be subjected to harsh environmental conditions such as wind, sun, rain, and dust over a long period of time, which makes the metal parts prone to rust and corrosion, accelerates the aging of the sealing materials, and thus reduces the sealing performance, resulting in refrigerant leakage. This not only reduces the air conditioning cooling effect and increases energy consumption, but may also cause safety hazards. At the same time, it is more susceptible to damage and requires frequent maintenance and repair, which greatly increases the cost of use and maintenance difficulty. Therefore, in order to address the above problems, an air conditioner shut-off valve insulation and protection sleeve is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the technical problem that existing air conditioning shut-off valves, due to their direct exposure to the outside and lack of insulation protection, are prone to corrosion or damage during prolonged use, thereby reducing air conditioning cooling efficiency, increasing energy consumption, and significantly increasing usage costs and maintenance difficulties, this utility model provides an air conditioning shut-off valve insulation and protection sleeve.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the embodiments of this application to solve its technical problem is:

[0006] An air conditioner shut-off valve insulation protective sleeve includes a shut-off valve body, which is installed on the outdoor unit of the air conditioner; and an insulation sleeve body, which is fitted onto the shut-off valve body to completely cover the entire shut-off valve body; wherein, the insulation sleeve body is an integral structure made of elastic material, and the insulation sleeve body has an installation seam on one side, with the seam facing the shut-off valve body.

[0007] In one possible implementation, the shut-off valve body includes a valve cylinder for connecting to the outdoor unit of the air conditioner. The valve cylinder is mounted on the outdoor unit via a fixedly connected mounting base, and a valve stem adjustment end is provided at the end of the valve cylinder away from the mounting base. In addition, symmetrically arranged indoor unit interfaces and inspection ports are fixedly connected to the valve cylinder, and an air pipe is sealed to the indoor unit interface.

[0008] In one possible implementation, the thermal insulation sleeve body includes a sleeve with a first receiving cavity inside that matches the size of the valve cylinder. An adjusting end sleeve is connected to one end of the sleeve away from the shut-off valve body, and a fourth receiving cavity inside that matches the size of the valve stem adjusting end. An interface end sleeve and a maintenance end sleeve are connected to both sides of the sleeve, respectively. The interface end sleeve has a second receiving cavity inside that matches the size of the indoor unit interface, and the maintenance end sleeve has a third receiving cavity inside that matches the size of the maintenance port.

[0009] In one possible implementation, the end of the sleeve away from the adjusting end sleeve is connected to a seat sleeve, which has a sixth receiving cavity inside that matches the size of the mounting seat.

[0010] In one possible implementation, the end of the interface sleeve is connected to a tubing sleeve, which has a fifth receiving cavity inside that matches the size of the trachea.

[0011] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0012] By wrapping the gate valve body with an insulation sleeve, the exposed copper parts of the gate valve body can be insulated and saved energy. At the same time, it can also protect the gate valve body from oxidation and reduce the generation of condensate to a certain extent, making it more environmentally friendly and safe for the people. In summary, the insulation sleeve can provide good insulation and protection for the gate valve body, and can significantly reduce the cost of use and maintenance difficulty.

[0013] Because the main body of the insulation sleeve is a one-piece structure made of elastic material, it has good deformation ability. Therefore, when used with the installation seam, it can facilitate installation and disassembly. That is, the main body of the insulation sleeve can be directly put on the installed gate valve body through the installation seam. Then, by pulling the main body of the insulation sleeve to make it elastically deform, it can be wrapped snugly around the gate valve body to complete the installation. Disassembly is carried out by reversing the above steps. The entire disassembly and assembly process is simple and easy and does not affect the setting of the gate valve body.

[0019] The technical solution in this application embodiment is to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, and the overall idea is as follows:

[0020] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides an air conditioner shut-off valve insulation protective sleeve, including a shut-off valve body 1, which is installed on the outdoor unit of the air conditioner; and an insulation sleeve body 2, which is fitted onto the shut-off valve body 1 to completely cover the entire shut-off valve body 1. Based on the above technical solution, the insulation sleeve body 2 can provide insulation and energy saving for the exposed copper parts of the shut-off valve body 1, while also providing protection by providing anti-oxidation protection for the shut-off valve body 1. It can also reduce the generation of condensate to a certain extent, making it more environmentally friendly and safer for residents. In summary, the insulation sleeve body 2 can provide good insulation and protection for the shut-off valve body 1, and can significantly reduce the cost of use and maintenance difficulty.

[0021] The insulation sleeve body 2 is an integral structure made of elastic material. The insulation sleeve body 2 has an installation seam 3 on one side, which faces the shut-off valve body 1. The above structural design can ensure that the insulation sleeve body 2 has good deformation ability. Therefore, when it is used with the installation seam 3, it can facilitate installation and disassembly. That is, the insulation sleeve body 2 can be directly put on the installed shut-off valve body 1 through the installation seam 3, so that it fits snugly on the shut-off valve body 1 to complete the installation.

[0022] In existing technologies, such as Figure 2As shown, the shut-off valve body 1 includes a valve cylinder 11, which is used to connect to the outdoor unit of the air conditioner. The valve cylinder 11 is installed on the outdoor unit through a fixedly connected mounting base 15, and a valve stem adjustment end 14 is provided at the end of the valve cylinder 11 away from the mounting base 15. In addition, symmetrically arranged indoor unit interfaces 12 and inspection ports 13 are fixedly connected to the valve cylinder 11, and an air pipe is sealed to the indoor unit interface 12. The above contents include all the contents that the shut-off valve body 1 needs to be wrapped and protected, providing necessary reference for the targeted thermal insulation protection of the thermal insulation sleeve body 2.

[0023] To achieve a complete and tight enclosure of the gate valve body 1, the insulation sleeve body 2 needs to be specifically designed in each part. Therefore, as Figures 2-3 As shown, the following content is required:

[0024] Among them, the thermal insulation sleeve body 2 includes a sleeve 21, which has a first receiving cavity 211 that matches the size of the valve cylinder 11. Based on the above structural scheme, the valve cylinder 11 can be fully wrapped by the sleeve 21 part of the thermal insulation sleeve body 2.

[0025] The end of the sleeve 21 away from the valve body 1 is connected to the adjusting end sleeve 24, which has a fourth receiving cavity 241 inside that matches the size of the valve stem adjusting end 14. Based on the above structural scheme, the adjusting end sleeve 24 of the heat insulation sleeve body 2 can achieve all-round fitting and wrapping of the valve stem adjusting end 14.

[0026] The sleeve 21 is connected to an interface end sleeve 22 and an inspection end sleeve 23 on both sides respectively. The interface end sleeve 22 has a second receiving cavity 221 that matches the size of the indoor unit interface 12. The inspection end sleeve 23 has a third receiving cavity 231 that matches the size of the inspection port 13. Based on the above structural scheme, the interface end sleeve 22 and the inspection end sleeve 23 of the insulation sleeve body 2 can respectively achieve all-round fitting and wrapping of the indoor unit interface 12 and the inspection port 13.

[0027] The end of the sleeve 21 away from the adjustment end sleeve 24 is connected to the seat sleeve 26, which has a sixth receiving cavity 261 that matches the size of the mounting base 15. Based on the above structural scheme, the mounting base 15 can be fully wrapped by the seat sleeve 26 part of the heat insulation sleeve body 2.

[0028] The end of the interface sleeve 22 is connected to the pipe sleeve 25, which has a fifth receiving cavity 251 that matches the size of the air tube. Based on the above structural scheme, the air tube can be wrapped and fitted by the pipe sleeve 25 part of the heat insulation sleeve body 2.

[0029] Through the detailed components that constitute the main body 2 of the insulation sleeve, the shut-off valve body 1 can be fully wrapped and fitted, thereby ensuring that the main body 2 of the insulation sleeve has a good insulation and protection effect. This ensures that the integrated structure is easy to disassemble and assemble, and will not affect the performance due to large gaps caused by insufficient fit between the main body 2 and the shut-off valve body 1.

[0030] The working principle and usage process of this utility model:

[0031] During installation, the insulation sleeve body 2 can be directly fitted onto the installed shut-off valve body 1 through the installation seam 3. Then, by pulling the insulation sleeve body 2 to make it elastically deform, it can be wrapped snugly around the shut-off valve body 1 to complete the installation. When disassembling, the above steps can be reversed. The entire disassembly and assembly process is simple and easy and does not affect the setting of the shut-off valve body 1.

[0032] The thermal insulation sleeve 2 can tightly wrap around the outside of the gate valve body 1, providing insulation and energy saving for the exposed copper parts of the gate valve body 1. It also provides protection, anti-oxidation protection for the gate valve body 1, and can reduce the generation of condensate to a certain extent, making it more environmentally friendly and safer for the public. In summary, the thermal insulation sleeve 2 can provide good insulation and protection for the gate valve body 1, and can significantly reduce the cost of use and maintenance difficulty.

[0033] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
