Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of heating equipment, specifically a magnetic locking mechanism for a manual valve. Background Technology
[0002] During the process of centralized heating in the community, some residents may privately adjust the opening and closing of the valves. This is because some residents open the valves without paying their community heating fees, as the operation is quite simple. However, this behavior causes economic losses for the heating company and also results in other residents in the community not receiving adequate heating, thus affecting the heating company and other residents, and is detrimental to the company's continued operation.
[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, a magnetic locking mechanism for manual valves is proposed. This mechanism enables control over the opening and closing of manual valves, preventing residents from operating them without authorization. This, to a certain extent, restricts and ensures the heating order within the community, preventing theft of heating. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a magnetic locking mechanism for manual valves, which can control the opening and closing of manual valves, thereby preventing residents from opening and closing them without authorization, thus limiting and ensuring the heating order in the community to a certain extent and preventing theft of heat.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model employs the following technical solution:
[0006] A magnetic locking mechanism for a manual valve includes a valve body and a switching element that is configured to cooperate with the valve body; a locking mechanism is provided at the position of the switching element on the valve body, and the switching element of the valve body is locked in a timely manner by the locking mechanism.
[0007] The locking mechanism includes a locking end and a locking hole provided on the mating end face of the switch component. The locking end is equipped with a telescopic mechanism disposed in the locking hole. A locking groove and a sliding groove are provided on the lower end face of the switch component. When the locking end falls into the locking groove through the telescopic mechanism, the valve body is in a closed and locked state.
[0008] The telescopic mechanism is a spring telescopic component, the locking end is made of magnetic material, the spring telescopic component is disposed in the locking hole, and the locking end presses the spring telescopic component for setting.
[0009] A magnetic key is provided in conjunction with the switch, the magnetic key cooperates with the switch, and a switch magnet is provided on the contact end face of the magnetic key and the switch, and the lower magnetic pole of the switch magnet is opposite to the upper magnetic pole of the locking end.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0011] This device differs from traditional switches in its design. While traditional switches can be easily turned on and off by anyone, this device incorporates a locking mechanism to lock the switch in a secure position, preventing residents from unauthorized operation. Furthermore, a magnetic key is integrated into the locking mechanism, facilitating easy control by staff and ensuring optimal user control. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The present invention will be further illustrated below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Furthermore, it should be understood that after reading the teachings of this invention, those skilled in the art can make various alterations or modifications to the present invention, and these equivalent forms also fall within the scope defined in this application.
[0021] During the community's centralized heating process, some residents may privately adjust the opening and closing of valve 1. This is because some residents open the valve 1 without paying their community heating fees, as the operation is quite simple. Therefore, to address this issue, the following improvements are made to the structure of valve 1:
[0022] A magnetic locking mechanism for a manual valve includes a valve body 1 and a switch element 2 fitted to the valve body 1. A locking mechanism is positioned at the switch element 2 on the valve body 1 to lock the switch element 2 in a timely manner. The locking mechanism includes a locking end 3, and a locking hole 4 is provided on the mating end face of the switch element 2. The locking end 3 is fitted with a telescopic mechanism that is disposed within the locking hole 4. A locking groove 5 and a sliding groove 6 are provided on the lower end face of the switch element 2. When the locking end 3 falls into the locking groove 5 via the telescopic mechanism, the valve body 1 is in a closed and locked state. (See attached drawings.) Figure 2 As shown, the locking end 3 is set in conjunction with the telescopic mechanism to achieve the closing and locking requirement of the switch 2. The telescopic mechanism controls the telescopic movement of the locking end 3 relative to the locking hole 4. When the locking end 3 falls into the locking groove 5 on the lower end face of the upper switch 2 under the control of the telescopic mechanism, the valve body 1 is in a closed state. Because the locking end 3 is in the locking groove 5, the normal rotation of the switch 2 is restricted, preventing residents from rotating the switch 2 normally, thus preventing residents from opening or closing the valve body 1 without authorization. When the locking end 3 falls into the sliding groove 6 on the lower end face of the switch 2, the locking end 3 can move relative to the switch 2 when it rotates, allowing staff to easily rotate the switch 2.
[0023] To achieve the above effects, it is necessary to ensure the effective control of the telescopic mechanism. Therefore, the specific structural settings of the telescopic mechanism are as follows:
[0024] The telescopic mechanism is a spring telescopic component, and the locking end 3 is made of magnetic material. The spring telescopic component is disposed within the locking hole 4, and the locking end 3 presses against the spring telescopic component for setting. A magnetic key 7 is provided in conjunction with the switch component 2. The magnetic key 7 cooperates with the switch component 2, and a switch magnet 8 is provided on the contact surface between the magnetic key 7 and the switch component 2. The lower magnetic pole of the switch magnet 8 is opposite to the upper magnetic pole of the locking end 3. When the magnetic key 7 is attached to the switch component 2, because the switch magnet 8 of the magnetic key 7 and the contact surface of the locking end 3 have opposite magnetic poles, the locking end 3 is pushed into the locking groove 5 under the action of magnetic force, so that the switch component 2 can be rotated arbitrarily in this state. When the switch key is removed from the position of the switch component 2, the locking end 3 is pushed out of the locking hole 4 under the action of the spring telescopic component, so that the locking end 3 falls into the locking groove 5 or the fixing groove. The staff can control the locking end 3 to fall into the sliding groove 6 or locking groove 5 according to the rotation angle of the valve body 1 of the switch 2, thereby loosely controlling the opening and closing of the switch 2. Residents are also unable to open the switch 2 with tools, thus avoiding the problem of residents opening and closing the switch 2 without authorization.
[0025] Therefore, a magnetic locking mechanism for manual valves can control the opening and closing of manual valves, thereby preventing residents from operating them privately, thus limiting and ensuring the heating order in the community to a certain extent and preventing theft of heat.
