Block and fluid control device
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing fluid control devices often experience significant pressure drops and flow resistance, which can lead to inefficiencies and potential damage to components like valve cores in electromagnetic valves.
Innovation Solution
The design incorporates a block with a first mounting cavity and a first fluid passage, featuring a progressively increasing sub-bottom wall and strategically placed valve ports to minimize pressure drop by guiding fluid flow smoothly and reducing resistance.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If a traditional well system with separate block and fluid control devices is used, then the system has simple individual components, but the overall system complexity increases and requires multiple separate devices
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the block device and fluid control device into a single integrated well system. The block device includes a block body with a fluid control device mounted on it, integrating functions that were previously separate. This merging reduces the number of individual components and simplifies the overall system architecture while maintaining the functional capabilities of both the block and fluid control mechanisms.
2Ease of operation
If conventional well systems are used, then individual components are simple, but the installation and operation require multiple separate devices and increased system complexity
Solution Approach 1:
The integration of fluid control device into the block structure reduces the number of separate devices that need to be installed and operated. The block device with integrated fluid control eliminates the need for separate fluid control equipment, simplifying operational procedures and reducing the complexity of system management.
3Area of stationary object
If separate block and fluid control devices are used, then each component can be optimized independently, but the overall system requires more space and has higher complexity
Solution Approach 1:
The fluid control device is nested within or mounted on the block device structure. The fluid control device utilizes the block body as part of its housing or mounting structure, effectively nesting one device within another. This nesting approach reduces the total space required for the well system while maintaining the functional independence of both components.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
This configuration results in a fluid control device with reduced pressure drop and flow resistance, extending the service life of valve components and ensuring normal operation by facilitating smooth fluid movement and reducing the risk of whirl-induced pressure increases.
Implementation Method 1
the passage wall portion is located at a periphery of the first fluid passage, and a periphery side portion of the passage wall portion is at least provided with a first valve port
Implementation Method 2
one end of the first sub-bottom wall is relatively closer to the first valve port than another end of the first sub-bottom wall... the height of the sub-bottom wall is progressively increased... facilitating smooth fluid movement and reducing the risk of whirl-induced pressure increases

AI summary
A block and a fluid control device are disclosed. The block comprises a first mounting cavity (4). A wall portion of a first fluid passage (6) is provided with a first valve (63). A first mounting-cavity bottom wall (43) comprises a first sub-bottom wall (431), and the height of the first sub-bottom wall (431) increases as the first sub-bottom wall (431) extends from a first end (4311) of the first sub-bottom wall (431) toward a second end (4312) of the first sub-bottom wall (431). The pressure drop across the block and the fluid control device is low.
