[0034] Example:

[0035] Reference Figures 1-10 As shown, a miniature regulating valve for precise flow control includes a valve body 1 and a valve stem 3. The valve body 1 has a T-shaped three-way structure, with one end being the inlet 101, a symmetrical end having a positioning hole 103, and the other end being the outlet 102. The bottom surface of the positioning hole 103 has a through hole communicating with the inlet 101. A valve seat 2 is fitted inside the positioning hole 103, and packing 4 is placed above the valve seat 2. A pressure cap 5 is provided at the opening of the positioning hole 103. One end of the valve body 1 with a positioning hole 103 is provided with a valve cover 14. One end of the valve stem 3 is slidably disposed in the valve seat 2, and the valve stem 3 is provided with a valve core 6 at this end. The other end passes through the packing 4, the gland 5 and the valve cover 14 and is connected to a handwheel 12. The side wall of the valve seat 2 near the bottom surface of the positioning hole 103 is provided with a flow channel groove 9. The side wall of the flow channel groove 9 is provided with a flow hole 8, which is connected to the outlet end 102. The bottom of the valve seat 2 is provided with a flow hole 7 that cooperates with the valve core 6.

[0036] The fluid medium enters through the inlet end 101, enters the valve seat 2 through the flow hole 7, flows through the flow hole 8 on the side wall of the valve seat 2 to the flow channel groove 9, and then flows through the flow channel groove 9 to the outlet end 102.

[0037] The flow rate at the flow orifice 7 is controlled by the valve core 6 and valve seat 2, and the flow area at the flow orifice 8 is controlled by the valve stem 3, thereby controlling the flow rate at the flow orifice 8. Through two-stage flow regulation, the flow regulation is more accurate and precise.

[0038] The packing 4 improves the sealing between the valve seat 2 and the valve body 1, as well as the sealing inside the valve seat 2 when the valve stem 3 moves. The gland 5 presses the packing 4 to ensure the positional stability of the packing 4 and ensure that the packing 4 can achieve a sealing effect. The gland 5 is fixed by the valve cover 14 to ensure the positional stability of the gland 5, thereby ensuring that the gland 5 can press the packing 4.

[0039] The handwheel 12 facilitates the movement of the valve stem 3, thereby facilitating the control of the flow rate in the flow passage 7 and the flow orifice 8.

[0040] A sealing gasket 10 is provided between the bottom surface of the positioning hole 103 and the valve seat 2.

[0041] The sealing gasket 10 improves the sealing performance of the contact surface between the valve seat 2 and the valve body 1, preventing fluid medium from leaking from the contact surface and improving the safety of the control valve.

[0042] The valve stem 3 also has an annular groove 301 on its side, and an annular sealing ring 11 is inserted into the annular groove 301.

[0043] The annular sealing ring 11 improves the sealing performance between the valve stem 3 and the valve seat 2, and also improves the sealing performance of the valve stem 3 during movement, preventing fluid medium from leaking from the contact surface between the valve stem 3 and the valve seat 2, thereby improving the safety of the control valve.

[0044] The valve seat 2 has a valve cavity hole along the height direction. One end of the valve stem 3 is slidably disposed in the valve cavity hole. A flow hole 7 is provided on the bottom surface of the valve cavity hole. A valve core 6 that cooperates with the flow hole 7 is provided on the end face of the valve stem 3 located at one end of the valve cavity hole.

[0045] The flow rate at the flow hole 7 is controlled by the valve core 6 extending into the flow hole 7, and the valve seat 2 is easily positioned by the valve cavity hole.

[0046] The flow orifice 8 is an inverted teardrop shape, and the smaller diameter end of the flow orifice 8 is flush with the bottom surface of the valve cavity.

[0047] The inverted teardrop-shaped structure has the smaller diameter end of the flow orifice 8 close to the valve core 6. When the flow rate is low, the smaller diameter end of the flow orifice 8 opens, allowing the fluid medium to pass through, which facilitates more precise control of the flow rate when the flow rate is low.

[0048] The flow orifice 8 is flush with the bottom surface of the valve cavity orifice, ensuring that when the valve core 6 opens the flow orifice 7, the valve stem 3 will also open the flow orifice 8, thus ensuring the flow of the regulating valve.

[0049] The flow hole 7 has a trumpet-shaped structure, with the diameter of one end of its adjacent valve cavity hole being larger than the diameter of the other end. The valve core 6 has a conical structure, with the diameter of the end connected to the valve stem 3 being larger than the diameter of the other end.

[0050] The valve core 6 is conical, while the flow hole 7 is trumpet-shaped, which facilitates the insertion of the valve core 6 into the flow hole 7 and its cooperation with the flow hole 7, thereby regulating the flow rate at the flow hole 7.

[0051] A panel nut 13 is fitted on the outside of the valve cover 14.

[0052] The control valve is easily installed by using the panel nut 13. The valve cover 14 is inserted into the installation position and locked by the panel nut 13, thereby installing the control valve in the use position.

[0053] The valve stem 3 has an external thread 303 on its side wall and an internal thread 1401 on its inner wall. The valve stem 3 and the valve cover 14 are threaded together.

[0054] The valve cover 14 is fixed in the use position. The valve stem 3 is rotated to adjust the position of the valve stem 3 in the valve seat 2, thereby adjusting the flow rate at the valve core 6 and the flow hole 7, as well as the flow area of ​​the flow hole 8 on the valve seat 2. The flow rate can be accurately controlled by rotating and moving the valve stem 3.

[0055] The valve stem 3 has a milled surface 302 on its side wall away from the valve seat 2. The handwheel 12 is sleeved on this end of the valve stem 3. The side of the handwheel 12 has a positioning hole 1201, and a locking bolt 1202 is installed in the positioning hole 1201. The locking bolt 1202 abuts against the milled surface 302. The handwheel 12 is fixed to the valve stem 3 by the locking bolt 1202.

[0056] In use, the fluid medium flows in from the inlet 101, passes through the flow hole 7, and enters the valve cavity. It then enters the flow channel 9 through the flow hole 8 on the side wall of the valve cavity, and flows into the outlet 102 through the flow channel 9. Turning the handwheel 12 rotates the valve stem 3, causing it to move within the valve seat 2. As the valve stem 3 moves upward, it moves the valve core 6 away from the flow hole 7, opening the flow hole 7. Simultaneously, the side wall of the valve stem 3 opens the flow hole 8 on the side wall of the valve seat 2. The further the valve stem 3 moves upward, the more open the flow hole 7 and flow hole 8 become, resulting in a larger flow rate. To reduce the flow rate, the handwheel 12 is turned in the opposite direction, causing the valve stem 3 to move downward, inserting the valve core 6 into the flow hole 7. Simultaneously, the valve stem 3 closes the flow area of ​​the flow hole 8, thus reducing the flow rate.

[0057] In practical use, the inlet end 101 and outlet end 102 of the regulating valve are equipped with compression fittings to facilitate the connection of the regulating valve with external pipelines.

[0058] The handwheel 12 and valve cover 14 are equipped with scales, which can be pre-determined according to the customer's desired flow rate, so that the user can accurately adjust the flow rate at any time during use.

[0059] The above are merely specific embodiments of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
