[0002] In various fluid transport systems for industrial production and daily life, valves are key components for controlling fluid flow rate, pressure, and direction.

[0003] Currently, the adjustable flow valves widely used in the market have certain limitations. Existing valves often have a fixed, non-adjustable stem length after installation. In many practical applications, installation space conditions are complex and varied. When encountering narrow installation locations, if the fixed-length stem is too short, the handwheel is easily obstructed by surrounding pipes or equipment, making it difficult for operators to apply effective torque. If the stem is too long, it will occupy additional limited space and may even interfere with other components, preventing proper valve assembly and affecting normal use and maintenance. Therefore, we need to propose an adjustable flow valve. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an adjustable flow valve to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as the valve stem length being non-adjustable. If the fixed length valve stem is too short, the handwheel is easily blocked by surrounding pipes or equipment, making it difficult for the operator to apply effective torque; if the valve stem is too long, it will occupy limited space and may even interfere with other components, causing the valve to be unable to be assembled properly.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: An adjustable flow valve includes: a valve body with a valve seat fixedly connected to its upper surface, and a sealing seat fixedly installed on the top of the valve seat; an adjustable length valve stem rotatably installed within the valve seat and the sealing seat, for flexibly adjusting its length according to actual space; and a positioning mechanism installed within the valve stem for fixing the valve stem after length adjustment.

[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0019] Please see Figure 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution: An adjustable flow valve includes: a valve body 1, on the upper surface of which a valve seat 2 is fixedly connected, and a sealing seat 3 is fixedly installed on the top of the valve seat 2 by a fixing screw 9; an adjustable length valve stem 4, which is rotatably installed in the valve seat 2 and the sealing seat 3, for flexibly adjusting the length according to the actual space; and a positioning mechanism 5, installed in the valve stem 4, for fixing the valve stem 4 after the length is adjusted.

[0020] In an optional embodiment: such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the valve stem 4 includes a mounting base 41, a positioning rod 42 and a fixing post 43. The positioning rod 42 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting base 41. The fixing post 43 has an insertion groove 14. The positioning rod 42 is inserted into the insertion groove 14, and the side of the positioning rod 42 contacts the inner wall of the insertion groove 14. A handwheel 13 is fixedly mounted on the top of the mounting base 41.

[0021] It should be noted that the mounting base 41, positioning rod 42 and fixing column 43 cooperate to adjust the length of valve stem 4. The length can be flexibly adjusted according to the actual space. This avoids the problem of the handwheel being blocked by surrounding pipes and equipment due to being too short, and also prevents space occupation and component interference due to being too long. This ensures that the valve can be smoothly assembled and used in confined environments such as pipe wells and equipment interlayers.

[0022] In an optional embodiment: such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the positioning mechanism 5 includes a first push plate 51, a second push plate 52, a push rod 54, an insert block 55, an end cap 57, and a pull spring 58; Mounting base 41 has a mounting groove, and the first push plate 51 and the second push plate 52 are both located in the mounting groove. The push rod 54 is fixedly connected to both sides of the first push plate 51 and the second push plate 52. The push rod 54 is movably inserted into the mounting base 41. Multiple sets of mounting holes 53 are symmetrically provided in pairs in the mounting base 41. Pull spring 58 is located in the mounting hole 53. One end of the pull spring 58 is fixedly installed on the side of the first push plate 51 and the second push plate 52, and the other end of the pull spring 58 is fixedly installed on the inside of the end cover 57. The end cover 57 is fixedly installed on the mounting base 41. Multiple sets of insert blocks 55 are fixedly connected to the sides of the first push plate 51 and the second push plate 52. Multiple sets of slots 56 for inserting the insert blocks 55 are opened in the insertion groove 14. The insert blocks 55 are inserted into the slots 56.

[0023] It should be noted that the first push plate 51, the second push plate 52, the push rod 54, the insert block 55, the end cap 57 and the pull spring 58 work together to fix the positioning insert rod 42 and the fixing post 43, restrict the length extension and retraction of the valve rod 4, and prevent the length extension and retraction of the valve rod from affecting subsequent use. By pulling the spring 58, the first push plate 51 and the second push plate 52 are dragged, so that the first push plate 51 and the second push plate 52 can be reset, so that the insert block 55 is automatically inserted into the slot 56 after being aligned with the slot 56. After the insert block 55 is inserted into the slot 56, the positioning insert rod 42 is fixed, preventing the positioning insert rod 42 from moving within the fixed post 43.

[0024] In an optional embodiment: such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, two sets of guide rods 10 for positioning the first push plate 51 and the second push plate 52 are symmetrically fixedly connected in the mounting groove. Both the first push plate 51 and the second push plate 52 are slidably mounted on the guide rods 10.

[0025] It should be noted that the guide rod 10 serves to guide and position the first push plate 51 and the second push plate 52. When the push rod 54 pushes the first push plate 51 and the second push plate 52, the first push plate 51 and the second push plate 52 can move stably, preventing the first push plate 51 and the second push plate 52 from shifting and affecting the insertion of the plug 55 into the slot 56.

[0026] In an optional embodiment: such as Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, it also includes a control shaft 7, which is threadedly installed inside the valve body 1; The upper end of the control shaft 7 is fixedly connected to the connecting seat 11, and the lower end of the fixed column 43 is fixedly connected to the conical block 6. The top of the connecting seat 11 is provided with a conical groove 12 that matches the conical block 6, and the conical block 6 is inserted into the conical groove 12.

[0027] It should be noted that the valve stem 4 can be connected to the control shaft 7 by the cooperation of the conical block 6 and the conical groove 12. If the valve stem 4 or the valve plate 8 is damaged, the valve stem 4 or the valve plate 8 can be replaced separately. Specifically, by removing the sealing seat 3 from the top of the valve seat 2, the valve seat 2 is separated from the sealing seat 3, and the conical block 6 is moved out of the conical groove 12.

[0028] In an optional embodiment: such as Figure 2 As shown, the valve seat 2 is provided with a first sealing cavity 15, the connecting seat 11 is provided in the first sealing cavity 15, the sealing seat 3 is provided with a second sealing cavity 16, and the fixing column 43 is sealed and inserted into the sealing seat 3.

[0029] It should be noted that by cooperating with the first sealing cavity 15 and the second sealing cavity 16, the sealing effect between the control shaft 7 and the valve body 1, and between the fixed column 43 and the sealing seat 3 is improved. When the medium leaks, it enters into the first sealing cavity 15 and the second sealing cavity 16 to prevent the medium from leaking out. A sealing seat (not shown in the figure) is fixedly installed at the lower end of the control shaft 7, and the flow rate of the medium in the valve body 1 is controlled by the sealing seat; The sealing seat 3 is equipped with a sealing gasket, which serves to seal the first sealing cavity 15 when the sealing seat 3 is fixedly installed on the top of the valve seat 2.

[0030] In an optional embodiment: such as Figure 5 As shown, the sealing seat 3 has a connecting hole 8, and the first sealing cavity is connected to the second sealing cavity 16 through the connecting hole 8.

[0031] It should be noted that when the valve stem 4 is rotated, causing the valve stem 4 to rotate and move within the valve body via the conical block 6 and the connecting seat 11, the connecting seat 11 can be pushed, allowing the connecting seat 11 to enter the second sealing cavity 16 through the connecting hole 8.

[0032] The usage process of this utility model is as follows: When it is necessary to adjust the length of the valve stem 4, the push rod 54 is pressed at the same time, causing the push rod 54 to push the first push plate 51 and the second push plate 52 closer to each other. When the first push plate 51 and the second push plate 52 are close to each other, the insert block 55 moves out of the slot 56. At this time, the handwheel 13 is pushed or pulled, causing the mounting base 41 to move the positioning insert rod 42, so that the positioning insert rod 42 moves in the fixed column 43. The length of the mounting base 41 and the fixed column 43 can be flexibly adjusted according to the actual space. This avoids the problem that the handwheel 13 is blocked by surrounding pipes and equipment and cannot apply force due to being too short, and also prevents space occupation and component interference due to being too long. After adjusting the valve stem 4, release the push rod 54. Under the drag of the pull spring 58 on the first push plate 51 and the second push plate 52, the first push plate 51 and the second push plate 52 are moved and reset in the mounting groove. When the insert 55 is aligned with the slot 56, the insert 55 is directly inserted into the slot 56. If the insert 55 is not aligned with the slot 56 and is pressed against the inner wall of the insertion groove 14, the positioning rod 42 is adjusted so that the insert 55 is aligned with the slot 56 and inserted into the slot 56. The positioning rod 42 is fixed in the fixing post 43, thereby fixing the length of the valve stem 4, limiting the extension and retraction of the valve stem, and preventing the extension and retraction of the valve stem from affecting subsequent use.

[0033] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
