AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing electric valves generate significant noise during fluid flow, primarily due to the concentrated fluid flow and high velocity, which causes the fluid to scour the edges of the valve port or guide sleeve, resulting in noise.

Method used

The guide sleeve is designed with an annular arc surface, and by combining reasonable h and r1-r2 values, the fluid flow path is optimized, reducing flow resistance and noise. The guide surface is an arc surface that convexes from the inside out or concave from the outside in radially, combined with a rotational curved surface design to ensure smooth fluid flow. The guide sleeve includes first and second sleeve sections, providing stable support. The valve core structure seals against the inner wall of the guide sleeve, reducing friction and noise.

Benefits of technology

By optimizing the fluid flow path, noise during fluid flow was reduced, lowering the noise peak from 96.5dB to 85.4dB, improving the working environment and avoiding impacts on users' hearing and physical health.
