Detailed Implementation
[0020] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0021] like Figure 1-5As shown, a temperature control combination valve for an air compressor includes a combination valve body 1. A cavity 2 is formed on one side of the combination valve body 1, and a cavity 3 is formed on the other end. An oil inlet channel 4 is provided between the cavity 3 and the cavity 2. An oil inlet hole 5 is provided at the lower end of the oil inlet channel 4, and a safety valve mounting hole 6 is provided on the upper side wall of the oil inlet channel 4. The upper end of the oil inlet channel 4 is connected to the upper end of the cavity 2. An oil separator core 7 is installed at the upper end of the cavity 2 for separating the mist-like oil-gas mixture in the compressed air. A pressure relief port 8 is provided on the lower side wall of the cavity 2, and a flow channel 9 is formed at the lower end of the cavity 2. A minimum pressure valve 10 is installed in the flow channel 9 to prevent excessively low internal pressure, thereby ensuring the oil-gas separation effect. The side wall of the flow channel 9... A pressure sensor mounting hole 11 is provided on the upper part of the cavity 9. An exhaust port 12 is provided on the other side wall of the flow channel 9. An oil filter 13 is installed at the upper end of the cavity 2 3. A retaining ring 14 is formed inside the cavity 2 3. A temperature control valve 15 is movably arranged inside the retaining ring 14. An outlet 16 is provided on the side wall of the temperature control valve 15. An oil suction port 17 is provided at one end of the cavity 2 3. The oil suction port 17 is connected to the inlet of the temperature control valve 15. An oil inlet port 18 and an oil outlet port 19 are provided on the other side wall of the cavity 2 3. The oil inlet port 18 is located on the side of the temperature control valve 15. One end of the oil outlet port 19 is connected to the oil filter 13. The oil outlet port 19 is located in front of the temperature control valve 15. The oil suction port 17 is located behind the temperature control valve 15.
[0022] This invention utilizes a temperature control valve design, where the valve core adjusts the oil passage between the valve body and the housing by extending and retracting according to the principle of thermal expansion and contraction. This controls the proportion of lubricating oil entering the oil cooler, thereby ensuring that the rotor temperature remains within a set range.
[0023] The temperature control valve 15 includes a cylinder 20, a temperature control valve spring 21, a stop block 22, and a temperature control element 23. The cylinder 20 has an outlet 16 on its side wall for oil to pass through. One end of the cylinder 20 is in contact with the second cavity 3, where the temperature control valve spring 21 is located. The other end of the second cavity 3 is equipped with a stop block 22. The temperature control element 23 is located between the stop block 22 and the cylinder 20. The temperature control element 23 is affected by temperature and will push the cylinder 20 to move, thereby connecting the outlet 16 with the radiator oil inlet 18 or the radiator oil outlet 19.
[0024] The lower end of the oil filter 13 and the combined valve body 1 are provided with an oil injection port 24.
[0025] The minimum pressure valve 10 includes a valve cap 25, a valve core 26, a valve core spring, a piston 28, and a piston spring. The valve cap 25 is installed at one end of the flow channel 9. The piston 28 is movably disposed inside the valve cap 25. The piston spring abuts against the piston 28 and the valve cap 25. The valve core 26 is connected to the piston 28. The valve core spring abuts against the valve core 26 and the piston 28. The valve core 26 abuts against the outlet end of the flow channel 9. This technical solution, through the design of the minimum pressure valve, ensures that when the pressure in the cavity 2 is lower than the set minimum value, the minimum pressure valve will close to prevent gas backflow in the system; when the pressure in the cavity 2 exceeds the set minimum value, the minimum pressure valve will open to allow gas to pass through and continue to flow to the subsequent system.
[0026] A sealing ring 30 is provided between the valve core 26 and the air outlet end of the flow channel 9 to improve the sealing performance.
[0027] The oil separator core 7 has an oil return port 31 on its side.
