Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of valve technology, and in particular relates to a novel self-regulating recirculation valve, which is suitable for fluid transportation systems such as boiler feed pumps and chemical process pumps. It is a new type of valve that can realize the self-regulating recirculation control of the medium, and is used to prevent the pump from being damaged by overheating, cavitation and other issues under low flow conditions, thus ensuring the stable operation of the system. Background Technology
[0002] Self-operated recirculation valves offer advantages such as requiring no external power (e.g., motors, cylinders), compact structure, and low cost, making them widely used in fluid transport systems in industries like power and chemicals. However, most existing self-operated recirculation valves employ a single spring to drive the valve core adjustment, which generally suffers from the following drawbacks: the single spring has a fixed stiffness, making it difficult for the valve core to quickly adapt to changes in operating conditions when system flow or pressure suddenly changes, resulting in delayed opening / closing of the recirculation bypass and causing short-term overheating of the pump body; simultaneously, the flow area adjustment range is narrow, especially under low-flow recirculation conditions, with flow fluctuation errors exceeding ±10%, making it difficult to meet high-precision process requirements.
[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a new type of self-operated recirculation valve that has a fast response speed, high adjustment accuracy, reliable operation, and convenient maintenance. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a novel self-regulating recirculation valve to overcome the problems existing in similar valves, achieving rapid response under changing operating conditions, high-precision flow regulation, and convenient maintenance. The technical solution adopted by this invention is as follows:
[0005] A novel self-operated recirculation valve includes a main valve body assembly, a sleeve, a large valve plug, a lower valve stem, and a lower valve seat. The main valve body assembly has an upper main valve body cavity and a lower main valve body cavity, which are coaxially arranged. The bottom diameter of the upper main valve body cavity is larger than the top diameter of the lower main valve body cavity. The medium outlet at the upper end and the medium inlet at the lower end of the main valve body assembly are connected through the upper and lower main valve body cavities. A first annular protrusion is provided on the bottom surface of the upper main valve body cavity, and a second annular protrusion is provided on the large valve plug. The first and second annular protrusions form the main valve port. An upper positioning plate is provided at the upper part of the upper main valve body cavity. The upper positioning plate has several flow holes. A guide sleeve is connected to the upper positioning plate, and the guide sleeve is connected to the large valve plug through a large spring.
[0006] The sleeve is fixed in the lower cavity of the main valve body by a lower positioning plate. The lower positioning plate has several flow holes. A flow channel is formed between the outer periphery of the sleeve and the side wall of the lower cavity of the main valve body. The upper end of the sleeve is sealed by an upper end cap. The inner hole of the sleeve is a stepped hole formed by an upper hole section and a lower hole section, and the diameter of the upper hole section is smaller than the diameter of the lower hole section. The lower valve seat is a cylindrical component. The bottom of the lower valve seat has a short shoulder. The outer periphery of the lower valve seat slides with the upper hole section. A small spring is sleeved on the outer periphery of the lower valve seat. The two ends of the small spring abut against the upper end face of the short shoulder and the bottom surface of the lower hole section, respectively. The lower end of the lower hole section has a limiting pressure ring to restrict the lower valve seat from sliding out. Several first throttling grooves are machined in the inner hole of the lower valve seat. A first radial convex ring is formed between two adjacent first throttling grooves. The top of the first throttling groove at the upper end has a first valve seat sealing cone surface. The lower valve stem includes a first thin rod section and a first thick rod section connected coaxially. The top of the first thick rod section has a first valve stem sealing cone surface. The sealing cone surface, the first valve seat sealing cone surface and the first valve stem sealing cone surface constitute the lower valve port. The outer periphery of the first thick rod section is machined with several second throttling grooves. A first radial flange is formed between two adjacent second throttling grooves. When the first valve seat sealing cone surface and the first valve stem sealing cone surface abut and seal, the several first throttling grooves and several second throttling grooves are aligned at the same height. Several first radial convex rings and several first radial flanges are matched one-to-one. When the first valve seat sealing cone surface and the first valve stem sealing cone surface separate, the several first throttling grooves and several second throttling grooves are staggered in sequence, so that a throttling gap is formed between the lower valve seat and the lower valve stem. The upper end of the first thin rod section passes through the large valve plug and is connected to the limit nut. The first thin rod section is slidably sealed with the upper end cover. A bypass valve assembly is provided on one side of the main valve body assembly. One side of the sleeve is connected to the inner cavity of the bypass valve assembly through a bypass outlet pipe.

The several second radial convex rings and several second radial flanges are matched one by one. When the bypass valve plug abuts against the flange cover, the second valve seat sealing cone surface and the second valve stem sealing cone surface separate. The several third throttling grooves and several fourth throttling grooves are staggered in sequence, and a throttling gap is formed between the throttling rod section and the bypass valve seat.

[0046] This utility model relates to a novel self-operated recirculation valve, which includes two circuits: a main circuit and a recirculation circuit. The main valve port 24 of the main circuit is controlled to open and close by a large valve plug 9. The recirculation circuit includes a lower valve port 25 and a bypass valve port 26 connected in series, which are controlled to open and close by a lower valve stem 6 and a bypass valve plug 21, respectively.
[0047] This valve can automatically switch its operating status according to changes in the outlet flow rate of the water pump.
[0048] When the feedwater pump is operating normally, the flow rate at the medium inlet is higher than the set value. Under pressure, this pushes the large valve plug 9 upward, compressing the large spring 11 and opening the main valve port 24, connecting the main circuit and allowing feedwater to flow to the boiler. The lower valve stem 6, driven by the large valve plug 9, moves upward, sealing the lower valve port 25 and pulling the lower valve seat 5 upward, closing the bypass outlet pipe 15 and shutting off the upstream stage of the recirculation circuit. Simultaneously, feedwater also enters the pressure chamber 76 through the connecting pipe 17, pushing the bypass valve plug 21 upward, sealing the bypass valve port 26, and shutting off the downstream stage of the recirculation circuit. At this time, all flow passes through the main circuit.
[0049] When the feedwater pump operates at low load, the flow rate at the medium inlet is lower than the set value, and the feedwater pressure is less than the thrust of the large spring 11. The large valve plug 9 moves downward, sealing the main valve port 24, and the main valve circuit is closed. The lower valve stem 6 and the lower valve seat 5 slide downward under the elastic force of the small spring 4, opening the lower valve port 25 and connecting the upstream stage of the recirculation circuit. At the same time, the bypass valve plug 21 also falls back due to its own weight as the feedwater pressure decreases, opening the bypass valve port 26 and connecting the downstream stage of the recirculation circuit. The feedwater flows through the multi-stage throttling channels connected in series in the upstream and downstream stages to the deaerator after pressure reduction.
