Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of needle component and a kind of electric expansion valves with the needle component.
Background technique
The content of this part provides only background information related to the present invention, may not constitute the prior art.
Electric expansion valve is the important component in refrigeration system, is adjusted for the flow to working fluid.Electronics is swollen Swollen valve generally includes driving mechanism, throttle mechanism and relevant auxiliary body.Driving mechanism generally include stepper motor and Corresponding thread screw mechanism, throttle mechanism includes needle component and valve seat.In traditional electric expansion valve, usual stepping electricity Machine and thread screw mechanism directly drive needle component, to open or close electric expansion valve, to realize convection current The flow for crossing the fluid of electric expansion valve is adjusted.To guarantee the reliable efficient operation of refrigeration system, electric expansion valve needs effective Guarantee its basic performance and reliability.
Currently, needle component mainly uses two kinds of design schemes: rigid connection design scheme and flexible connection design scheme.
Rigidly connected needle component mainly uses the rigid connections such as interference by the correlated parts (example in needle component Such as valve rod and needle) be linked and packed together with.Figures 1 and 2 show that a kind of rigidly connected needle component M of prior art. Needle component M includes valve rod M1, needle M2 and sealing element M3.The upper end of valve rod M1 is provided with threaded hole M11, with connection pair The drive rod that needle component M is driven, for example, the drive shaft (not shown) of motor.The lower end of valve rod M1 is provided with recess portion M12.The upper part M21 of needle M2 is interference fitted in recess portion M12, so that needle M2 and valve rod M1 are integrally transported up and down It is dynamic.The low portion M22 of needle M2 and the valve opening (not shown) on valve seat cooperate to adjust the aperture of electric expansion valve.In addition, It is provided with sealing element M3 between the lower end and needle M2 of valve rod M1, to provide between needle component M and valve seat (not shown) Sealing.

Specific embodiment
Following description is substantially merely exemplary and is not intended to the limitation present invention, application and purposes.It should be appreciated that In all these attached drawings, similar appended drawing reference indicates identical or similar part and feature.Each attached drawing is only schematic Ground illustrates the design and principle of embodiments of the present invention, might not show the specific ruler of each embodiment of the present invention Very little and its ratio may illustrate each implementation of the present invention in the specific part in specific attached drawing or figure by the way of exaggeration The correlative detail or structure of mode.
In the description of embodiments of the present invention, it is used to "upper", the relevant directional terminology in "lower" be with attached drawing Shown in the upper and lower position of view describe, used " forward direction ", " reversed " limited according to the flow direction of fluid Fixed.In the practical application of electric expansion valve or needle component, "upper" used herein, "lower" positional relationship and The flow direction of " forward direction ", " reversed " can limit according to the actual situation, these relationships and direction can mutually overturn.
Fig. 3 shows a kind of sectional view of electric expansion valve 100 of the relevant technologies.Electric expansion valve 100 mainly includes driving Motivation structure 10, needle component 20, valve seat 30.Driving mechanism 10 includes stepper motor, and stepper motor includes stator 11 and rotor 12. Mandrel 13 is fixedly connected on rotor 12, mandrel 13 is integrally rotated with rotor 12.Needle component 20 includes valve rod 21, needle 22 And spring 23.The upper end 24 of spring 23 and needle 22 is accommodated in the inner cavity 211 of valve rod 21.The upper end of spring 23 is against valve The top of the inner cavity 211 of bar 21, against the upper end of needle 22, spring 23 exerts a force to needle 22 for the lower end of spring 23.Needle 22 Lower end from the lower end of valve rod 21 stretch out.The upper end of valve rod 21 is operatively connectable to the lower end of mandrel 13, so that The rotary motion of mandrel 13 is converted into the movement of needle component 20 (axial direction) along the vertical direction, so that the lower end of needle 22 and valve Valve opening 31 on seat 30 cooperates to adjust the flow of the fluid by electric expansion valve 100.
In needle component 20, spring 23 applies active force to needle 22, and needle 22 can be under the active force of spring 23 It is moved up and down in the inner cavity of valve rod 21 211 relative to valve rod 21, is flexible connection between needle 22 and valve rod 21.When electronics is swollen When there is position deviation caused by manufacture or build-up tolerance in swollen valve 100, needle 22 can overcome the elastic force of spring 23 and It is moved up in the inner cavity 211 of valve rod 21 relative to valve rod 21, to provide axial elasticity and radial compliance, avoids occurring stuck Phenomenon.Therefore, electric expansion valve 100 can be reduced to the accuracy of manufacture of each components and the requirement of assembly precision.
When electric expansion valve 100 is used as bidirectional electronic expansion valve, under fluid forward flow state, fluid is from pipeline 51 It flows into the first chamber C1 in the valve seat 30 of electric expansion valve 100, when needle component 20 opens the valve opening 31 on valve seat 30, Fluid flows out electric expansion valve 100 from pipeline 52.Under reverse fluid flow state, when needle component 20 is opened on valve seat 30 When valve opening 31, fluid is flowed out out of, first chamber C1 in the valve seat 30 that pipeline 52 flows into electric expansion valve 100, and from pipeline 51 Electric expansion valve.
Under reverse fluid flow state, especially in the case where large diameter valve, fluid applies the lower end of needle 22 Add upward active force, which may overcome the active force of spring 23 and needle 22 is moved up.In needle component In 20, the distance that needle 22 overcomes the active force of spring 23 to move up is limited by the rigidity of spring 23, in addition to this, to bullet Axial elasticity provided by spring 23 is not subject to other controls.However, the rigidity of spring 23 can not be arranged it is too much, it is no It will then lose and provide the meaning of axial elasticity and radial compliance by flexible connection.Therefore, it is not yet requiring to open on valve seat 30 Valve opening 31 when, needle 22 be possible to overcome under the active force of fluid the active force of spring 23 have moved up it is excessive away from From so that valve opening 31 is opened in advance, causing interior leakage, flow through electricity to can not accurately control under reverse fluid flow state The flow of the fluid of sub- expansion valve.
In view of problem above, present inventors have proposed present inventive concepts.The present invention is soft by the axial direction to electric expansion valve Property limits, and electric expansion valve is avoided to open the valve on valve seat in advance because of fluid force under reverse fluid flow state Hole and interior leakage phenomenon occurs so that electric expansion valve can be accurately controlled in forward condition and reverse state, to flow through electronics swollen The flow of the fluid of swollen valve.

Packing holder 125 is mounted on the middle section 1222 of needle 122, close to lower end 1223.The valve opening of elasticity is close Sealing S2 compression is mounted between packing holder 125 and stage portion 1225, such as may be at overcompression state.In needle 122 When closing the valve opening 134 on valve seat 130, valve opening sealing element S2 is contacted with the surface 133 of valve seat 130.As shown in figure 4, in valve seat The protrusion 135 around valve opening 134 is formed on 130 surface 133.The outer diameter of protrusion 135 is less than under packing holder 125 The internal diameter of end, so that protrusion 135 is pressed against valve opening sealing element S2 under the closed state of electric expansion valve 200.
Adjusting gasket 126 is interference fitted on the middle section 1222 of needle 122.Adjusting gasket 126, which has, to be relatively large in diameter Upper axial end portion 1261 and the lesser lower axial end portion 1262 of diameter.The upper axial end portion 1261 of adjusting gasket 126 is shelved on On flange 1243, allows to limit needle 122 and move downward excessive displacement relative to valve rod and deviate from from inner hole 1213. The upper axial end portion 1261 of adjusting gasket 126 constitutes the first anti-delinking part, and flange 1243 constitutes the second anti-delinking part.Adjusting gasket 126 Lower axial end portion 1262 be located between the inner peripheral of flange 1243 and the peripheral surface of the middle section 1222 of needle 122.In Under the closed state of electric expansion valve 200 shown in Fig. 4, the lower axial end portion 1262 of adjusting gasket 126 is connected to packing holder On 125 upper surface, so that packing holder 125 can also be with adjusting even if packing holder 125 and needle 122 are clearance fit Gasket 126 and needle 122 integrally move.
Fig. 7 shows the enlarged drawing of part shown in the circle I in Fig. 6.As shown in fig. 7, in the closing of electric expansion valve 200 Under state, first axis interval d1 is formed between the top surface of packing holder 125 and the bottom surface of valve stem coupling member 124, The second axially spaced-apart d2 is formed between the lower end of valve rod 121 and the top surface of adjusting gasket 126.First axis interval d1 There is maximum value under the opening state of electric expansion valve 200 with the second axially spaced-apart d2.In this illustrative embodiments, In First axis interval d1 and the second axially spaced-apart d2 under the closed state of electric expansion valve 200 are respectively equal in electric expansion valve First axis interval and the second axially spaced-apart under 200 opening state.
When fluid forward flow, fluid is out of, pipeline 151 flows into electric expansion valve 200 first chamber C11.Work as electronics When there is position deviation caused by manufacture or build-up tolerance in expansion valve 200, needle 122 can overcome the elastic force of spring 123 And moved up in the inner hole of valve rod 121 1213 relative to valve rod 121, to provide axial elasticity and radial compliance, avoid Stuck phenomenon occurs, electric expansion valve 200 is worked normally.Therefore, electric expansion valve 100 can be reduced to each zero The accuracy of manufacture of part and the requirement of assembly precision.
When reverse fluid flow, when needle 122 opens valve opening 134, fluid flows into electric expansion valve from pipeline 152 In 200 first chamber C11, and electric expansion valve 200 is flowed out from pipeline 151.Fluid in pipeline 152 applies needle 122 Upward active force.Under the closed state of electric expansion valve 200, when the active force that fluid is applied to needle 122 overcomes spring 123 elastic force and make needle 122 relative to valve rod 121 upwards (make valve opening 134 open direction) movement when, packing holder 125, Adjusting gasket 126 is integrally moved upwards with needle 122.
In the electric expansion valve 200 of present embodiment, when needle 122 moves upwards first axis relative to valve rod 121 Distance after, at least one of first axis interval d1 and the second axially spaced-apart d2 eliminate, needle 122 relative to valve rod 121 to On movement be blocked, needle 122 can not continue to move upwards relative to valve rod 121, at this point, valve rod 121 and needle 122 it Between connection become to be rigidly connected.
Specifically, in the case where first axis interval d1 is less than or equal to the second axially spaced-apart d2, when needle 122 is opposite After valve rod 121 moves upwards first axis distance, first axis interval d1 is eliminated first, so that the top of packing holder 125 The bottom surface of surface abutting valve stem coupling member 124.Since valve stem coupling member 124 is fixedly attached to valve rod 121, needle 122 It can not continue to move upwards relative to valve rod 121, at this point, the connection between valve rod 121 and needle 122 becomes to be rigidly connected, Valve stem coupling member 124 and packing holder 125 constitute the stop configurations for limiting axial elasticity.At this point, 124 structure of valve stem coupling member At the first stop part of stop configurations, packing holder 125 constitutes the second stop part of stop configurations.D1 etc. at first axis interval In the case where the second axially spaced-apart d2, when the bottom surface of valve stem coupling member 124 is mutually abutted with the top surface of packing holder 125 When, adjusting gasket 126 can mutually be abutted with the lower end of valve rod 121, to form additional stop configurations.Alternatively, In In the case that first axis interval d1 is less than the second axially spaced-apart d2, when the bottom surface and packing holder 125 of valve stem coupling member 124 Top surface when mutually abutting, adjusting gasket 126 can keep being spaced apart with the lower end of valve rod 121.
Alternatively, in the case where first axis interval d1 is greater than or equal to the second axially spaced-apart d2, when 122 phase of needle After moving upwards first axis distance for valve rod 121, the second axially spaced-apart d2 is eliminated first, so that adjusting gasket 126 Top surface is abutted with the lower end of valve rod 121, so that needle 122 can not continue to move upwards relative to valve rod 121, at this point, Connection between valve rod 121 and needle 122 becomes to be rigidly connected.At this point, the lower end of valve rod 121 constitutes the first of stop configurations Stop part, adjusting gasket 126 constitute the second stop part of stop configurations.It is equal to the second axially spaced-apart d2 in first axis interval d1 In the case where, when the lower end of valve rod 121 is mutually abutted with the top surface of adjusting gasket 126, the bottom table of valve stem coupling member 124 Face can mutually be abutted with the top surface of packing holder 125, to form additional stop configurations.Alternatively, in first axis In the case that interval d1 is greater than the second axially spaced-apart d2, when the lower end of valve rod 121 and the top surface of adjusting gasket 126 are mutually supported When connecing, the bottom surface of valve stem coupling member 124 can keep being spaced apart with the top surface of packing holder 125.
In addition, integrally moved upwards relative to valve rod 121 in needle 122, packing holder 126 and adjusting gasket 126 In the process, elastic valve opening sealing element S2 can stretch upwards with packing holder 126, but still be compressed in packing holder 125 and valve Between protrusion 135 on the upper surface 133 of the transverse part of seat 130, and valve opening 134 is surrounded, still is able to provide needle component 120 With the sealing between valve opening 134.Therefore, pass through the above-mentioned setting of needle component 120, under reverse fluid flow state, needle Needle 122 in component 120 can move upwards under fluid force relative to valve rod 121, but be not unlimitedly to Upper movement.After needle 122 moves upwards first axis distance relative to valve rod 121, in driving mechanism 110 to needle component Before 120 are driven to open valve opening 134, needle 122 will not continue to move upwards relative to valve rod 121 and in advance by valve Hole 134 is opened, so that valve opening 134 still keeps being closed, so that above-mentioned interior leakage phenomenon is avoided the occurrence of, so that electric expansion valve 200 It can also be worked normally under reverse fluid flow state.
Under the closed state of electric expansion valve 200 shown in Fig. 4, exist between the first stop part and the second stop part There is predetermined axially spaced-apart (the first axis interval between the top surface of packing holder 125 and the bottom surface of valve stem coupling member 124 Lesser one in d1 and the second axially spaced-apart d2 between the lower end of valve rod 121 and the top surface of adjusting gasket 126 Person), and the predetermined axially spaced-apart is equal to the first stop part and the second stop part under the opening state of electric expansion valve 200 Between axially spaced-apart.However, herein it is noted that electric expansion valve according to the present invention 200 may also be so constructed that The predetermined axially spaced-apart of first stop part and the second stop part under the closed state of electric expansion valve 200 is less than in electronic expansion Axially spaced-apart under the opening state of valve 200.
Specifically, it moves downward under driving of the needle component 120 in driving device 110 with the process of close valve orifice 134 In, when the lower end of needle 122 1223 is cooperated in valve opening 134 when close valve orifice 134, can according to need makes valve rod 121 It is moved downward relative to needle 122 to reduce first axis interval d1 and the second axially spaced-apart d2 or eliminate first axis interval At least one of d1 and the second axially spaced-apart d2.Valve rod 121 can be moved downward relative to needle 122, so that first axis D1 and the second axially spaced-apart d2 is spaced to reduce, so that under the closed state of electric expansion valve 200, the first stop part and the Axially spaced-apart between two stop parts reduces.As a result, under the closed state of electric expansion valve 200, when fluid matasomatism is in needle When active force on 122 overcomes the active force of spring 123, needle 122 subtracts relative to the axial distance that valve rod 121 moves upwards It is small.
Valve rod 121 can continue to be moved down into so that between first axis interval d1 and the second axial direction relative to needle 122 It is eliminated every at least one of d2, so that under the closed state of electric expansion valve 200, the first stop part and the second backstop Part mutually abuts, so that the first stop part is prevented from moving upwards relative to the second stop part.It is similar with above scheme, work as valve rod 121 are moved down into when being eliminated first axis interval d1 first relative to needle 122, and the top surface of packing holder 125 supports Connect the bottom surface of valve stem coupling member 124.Valve stem coupling member 124 constitutes the first stop part of stop configurations, and packing holder 125 is constituted Second stop part of stop configurations.When the bottom surface of valve stem coupling member 124 is mutually abutted with the top surface of packing holder 125, Adjusting gasket 126 can mutually be abutted with the lower end of valve rod 121, to form additional stop configurations.Alternatively, work as valve rod When the bottom surface of connector 124 is mutually abutted with the top surface of packing holder 125, adjusting gasket 126 can under valve rod 121 End keeps being spaced apart.At this point, valve rod 121 can be moved downward further relative to needle 122, so that valve stem coupling member 124 Packing holder 125 is compressed so that valve opening sealing element S2 is further compressed, so that packing holder 125 is downward relative to needle downwards Movement, so that the second axially spaced-apart d2 is further decreased and even is eliminated.
When valve rod 121 is moved down into relative to needle 122 is eliminated the second axially spaced-apart d2 first, adjusting gasket 126 top surface is abutted with the lower end of valve rod 121.The lower end of valve rod 121 constitutes the first stop part of stop configurations, adjusts Second stop part of the composition stop configurations of gasket 126.When the lower end of valve rod 121 and the top surface of adjusting gasket 126 are mutually supported When connecing, the bottom surface of valve stem coupling member 124 can mutually be abutted with the top surface of packing holder 125, to form additional backstop Structure.Alternatively, when the lower end of valve rod 121 is mutually abutted with the top surface of adjusting gasket 126, valve stem coupling member 124 Bottom surface can with the top surface of packing holder 125 keep be spaced apart.
Test data shows the maximum operating pressure differential that electric expansion valve can be improved by above-mentioned setting, this is for reversed The operting differential pressure effect of flow regime is especially apparent, and the operting differential pressure under reverse flow can be improved 1.5 times to 5 times.
In addition, compared with the electric expansion valve 100 of the relevant technologies shown in Fig. 3, electric expansion valve 200 according to the present invention Additionally provide other advantage.Since in the operating process of electric expansion valve, driving mechanism transports needle component up and down reciprocatingly It is dynamic, therefore, as shown in figure 3, there are second chamber C2 between driving mechanism and needle component.Flow into the stream in first chamber C1 Know from experience and second chamber C2 is entered by the fit clearance between the related components in electric expansion valve 100.When needle component 20 under the driving of driving mechanism 10 when being moved upwardly or downwardly, and the volume of second chamber C2 will change, to be formed Influence the back pressure cavity that needle component 20 moves.It moves upwards when under driving of the needle component 20 in driving mechanism 10 to open valve opening When 31, the volume of second chamber C2 becomes smaller.This meeting so that the fluid in second chamber C2 apply on needle component 20 it is biggish Downward active force, to need biggish driving force move upwards needle component 20 to open valve opening 31.When needle group When part 20 moves downward under the driving of driving mechanism 10 with close valve orifice 31, the volume of second chamber C2 becomes larger, second chamber Downward active force of the fluid matasomatism on needle component 20 in C2 reduces, this makes that biggish driving force is needed to make needle Component 20 is moved downward with close valve orifice 31.This usually makes driving mechanism excessive, and cost is excessively high.
Electric expansion valve 200 according to the present invention further solves the above problem, can effectively reduce required driving Power reduces cost so as to reduce the power requirement to driving mechanism.
In electric expansion valve 200, as shown in figure 4, there are the second chambers between driving mechanism 110 and needle component 120 Room C12.When being moved upwardly or downwardly under driving of the needle component 120 in driving mechanism 110, the volume of second chamber C12 will It can change.Second chamber C12, which is formed, influences the back pressure cavity that needle component 120 moves.Second chamber C12 and first chamber It is sealed between C11 by chamber seal S1.
In order to which active balance second chamber C12 is to the active force of needle component 120, electric expansion valve 200 is provided with balance Channel, the balance channel are connected to second chamber C12 and second port 132.
As it was noted above, being formed with the threaded hole 1211, inner hole 1212, inner hole 1213 to communicate with each other in valve rod 121.Screw thread Hole 1211, inner hole 1212, inner hole 1213 form the valve stem passage 1215 for passing axially through valve rod 121.As shown in figure 4, mandrel 113 It is inside formed with mandrel access 1131, mandrel access 1131 includes axial continuation and radially extending portion (not shown), mandrel Access 1131 is connected to the second chamber C12 in electric expansion valve 200.In addition, as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 6, being formed in needle 122 There is needle access 1226.Needle access 1226 passes axially through needle 122, one end of needle access 1226 and second port 132 It is connected to pipeline 152, the other end of needle access 1226 is connected to the inner hole 1213 of valve rod 121.Mandrel access 1131, valve rod are logical Road 1215, needle access 1226 communicate with each other, and constitute above-mentioned balance channel.
When moving upwards under driving of the needle component 120 in driving mechanism 110 to open valve opening 134, with the second chamber The reduction of the volume of room C12, the fluid in second chamber C12 flow to pipeline 152 by above-mentioned balance channel, effectively reduce Fluid in two cavity Cs 12 transports needle component 120 upwards so as to reduce the downward active force of needle component 120 Dynamic driving force.When moving downward under driving of the needle component 120 in driving mechanism 110 with close valve orifice 134, pipeline 152 A part of interior fluid is flowed into second chamber C12 by above-mentioned balance channel, so that the fluid matasomatism in second chamber C12 Downward active force on needle component 120 increases, so as to reduce the driving force for moving downward needle component 120. Therefore, by the setting of above-mentioned balance channel, can effectively balanced valve needle assemblies 120 actual loading, reduce valve needle Driving force needed for component 120 reduces cost so as to reduce the power of driving mechanism.
Here, it should be noted that, in present embodiment, showing can be by between first axis interval d1 and the second axial direction The relative motion between needle and valve rod is limited every the elimination of one or both of d2.It is examined from the angle convenient for measurement control Consider, the relative motion between needle and valve rod only can be limited by the elimination of first axis interval d1.
In the present embodiment, adjusting gasket 126 is shown.But the adjusting gasket 126 it is not necessary to.According to this In the other embodiments of inventive concept, adjusting gasket 126 can also be saved, and is arranged on valve rod 121 and needle 122 respectively Corresponding anti-delinking part makes chamber seal and needle to prevent needle 122 from moving downward excessive distance relative to valve rod 121 It falls off out of valve rod 121, also can be realized above-mentioned similar technical effect.It, can be in the case where being not provided with adjusting gasket 126 Packing holder is arranged to be interference fitted with needle, integrally to move with needle.
Illustrate needle component 220 according to the second embodiment of the present invention below in conjunction with Fig. 8-Figure 10.In addition to needle Other than component 220, the other structures and the basic phase of structure of electric expansion valve 200 of the electric expansion valve including needle component 220 It is same or similar, it is not repeated to describe herein.Hereafter mainly needle component 220 will be described.
It is similar with needle component 120, needle component 220 include valve rod 221, needle 222, elastic element, sealing element and Stop configurations.Elastic element is, for example, spring 223.Sealing element includes chamber seal S21 and valve opening sealing element S22.Backstop knot Structure is used to limit the relative motion between needle and valve rod.Specifically, stop configurations include being set to the first backstop of valve rod 221 Part and the second stop part for being set to needle 222.It can have predetermined axially spaced-apart between first stop part and the second stop part, Predetermined axial be spaced under the opening state of electric expansion valve 200 has maximum value.First stop part and the second stop part are suitable In mutual abut, needle 222 can be limited under the closed state of electric expansion valve (keeps electronics swollen upwards relative to valve rod 221 The direction that swollen valve is opened) it moves into and opens electric expansion valve.
The upper end of valve rod 221 is provided with threaded hole 2211, is threadedly engaged with the external screw thread of the lower end with mandrel.It is intermediate Part is provided with inner hole 2212, and low portion is provided with inner hole 2213.Inner hole 2213 is unthreaded hole.The diameter of inner hole 2212 is small In the diameter of inner hole 2213, so that the junction between inner hole 2212 and inner hole 2213 forms stage portion 2214.Spring 223 holds It sets in inner hole 2213, against stage portion 2214, the other end of spring 223 is resisted against the upper end of needle 222 for one end of spring 223 In portion 2221, active force is applied to needle 222.
Needle 222 includes upper end 2221, middle section 2222 and lower end 2223.The upper end 2221 of needle 222 It can have identical diameter with middle section 2222.Annular groove is formed between upper end 2221 and middle section 2222 2224.Needle 222 is at least partially received in inner hole 2213, and can be moved up and down in inner hole 2213.Specifically, valve At least part and upper part 2221 of the middle section 2222 of needle 222 are accommodated in inner hole 2213, and can be in inner hole It moves up and down in 2213.Chamber seal S21 is accommodated in the annular groove 2224, and be press-fitted in annular groove 2224 with Between the inner wall of inner hole 2213, to provide two way seal.The lower end 2223 of needle 222 is in section with the valve opening cooperation on valve seat Taper, taper can be set according to the discharge characteristic of electric expansion valve.The diameter of the lower end 2223 of needle 222 on to Under be gradually reduced, the maximum gauge of lower end 2223 is greater than the diameter of middle section 2222, thus in middle section 2222 under The junction of end 2223 forms stage portion 2225.
Needle component 220 has needle connector 224.As shown in Figure 9, the section of needle connector 224 is in substantially H Shape.Needle connector 224 is integrally formed with axial periphery wall portion 2241 and transverse wall portion 2242, and in transverse wall portion Through-hole 2243 is formed on 2242.Needle connector 224 is interference fitted by the middle section 2222 of through-hole 2243 and needle 222 And be fixed on needle 222, so that needle connector 224 is integrally moved with needle 222.Transverse wall portion 2242 is by periphery wall portion 2241 inside is divided into upper recess and lower concave part, and valve opening sealing element S22 is mounted in the lower concave part, is compressed in needle connector Between 224 and the lower end 2223 of needle 222, for example, may be at overcompression state.The valve on valve seat is closed in needle 222 Kong Shi, valve opening sealing element S22 are contacted with the top surface of the transverse part of valve seat, the protrusion pressure on the top surface of the transverse part of valve seat By valve opening sealing element S2, to seal valve opening.In addition, having the first anti-delinking part in the upper end of needle connector 224, and in valve rod The second anti-delinking part is provided in 221 peripheral surface, the first anti-delinking part is suitable for cooperating with the second anti-delinking part to prevent 222 phase of needle Moving downward excessive distance for valve rod 221 deviates from chamber seal S21 and needle 222 from valve rod 221.First is anti- De- portion is, for example, the barb 2243 in the inner circumferential for the upper end for being formed in needle connector 224, and the second anti-delinking part is, for example, shape At hook portion 2216 in the peripheral surface of valve rod 221, being matched with the barb 2243.Pass through barb 2243 and valve rod The cooperation of above-mentioned hook portion 2216 in 221 peripheral surface can move axially downward to avoid needle 222 relative to valve rod 221 It moves excessive distance and deviates from chamber seal S21 and needle 222 from the inner hole 2213 of valve rod 221.
Figure 10 shows the enlarged drawing of part shown in the circle II in Fig. 9.As shown in Figure 10, in needle component 220, In There are third axially spaced-apart d3 between the top surface of the transverse wall portion 2242 of needle connector 224 and the lower end of valve rod 221.The Three axially spaced-apart d3 have maximum value under the opening state of electric expansion valve.In the present embodiment, the lower end of valve rod 221 Constitute the first stop part of stop configurations, needle connector 224 (more specifically, transverse wall portion 2242 of needle connector 224) Constitute the second stop part of stop configurations.
Needle component 220 can be configured under the closed state of electric expansion valve, the transverse wall portion of needle connector 224 Third axially spaced-apart d3 between 2242 top surface and the lower end of valve rod 221 is maximum value, that is, in the pass of electric expansion valve Third axially spaced-apart d3 under closed state is equal with the third axially spaced-apart under the opening state of electric expansion valve.Alternatively Ground, similar with needle component 120, needle component 220 also can be configured to fill in needle component 220 in the driving of electric expansion valve During moving downward under the driving set with close valve orifice, when the lower end of needle 222 2223 is cooperated in valve opening and close When valve opening, make valve rod 221 relative to moving downward relative to needle 222 to reduce or eliminate third axially spaced-apart d3, thus So that being less than the under the opening state of electric expansion valve in the third axially spaced-apart d3 under the closed state of electric expansion valve Three axially spaced-aparts.When valve rod 221 is relative to moving downward relative to needle 222 and eliminating third axially spaced-apart d3, needle connects The top surface of the transverse wall portion 2242 of fitting 224 is mutually abutted with the lower end of valve rod 221, so that needle 222 is prevented from relatively It is moved upwards in valve rod 221.
Similar with electric expansion valve 200, under fluid forward flow state, fluid flows into packet from the first port on valve seat In the electric expansion valve of component containing needle 220, and electric expansion valve is flowed out from second port.It is made when existing in the electric expansion valve Make or build-up tolerance caused by position deviation when, needle 222 can overcome the elastic force of spring 223 and in the inner hole of valve rod 221 It is moved up in 2213 relative to valve rod 221, to provide axial elasticity and radial compliance, avoids that stuck phenomenon occurs, so that The electric expansion valve can work normally.Therefore, electric expansion valve can be reduced to the accuracy of manufacture and assembly of each components The requirement of precision.
Similarly, under reverse fluid flow state, when needle 222 opens valve opening, second port of the fluid from valve seat It flows into the electric expansion valve comprising needle component 220.It is configured under the closed state of electric expansion valve in needle component 220 There is third axially spaced-apart d3 between the top surface of the transverse wall portion 2242 of needle connector 224 and the lower end of valve rod 221 In the case where, it is moved upwards when needle 222 overcomes the active force of spring 223 under the active force of fluid relative to valve rod 221 When, the needle connector 224 being interference fitted on needle 222 is integrally moved upwards with needle 222.When needle 222 is transported upwards After dynamic second axial distance, third axially spaced-apart d3 is eliminated, and the top surface of the transverse wall portion 2242 of needle connector 224 is against valve The lower end of bar 221, needle 222 can not continue to move upwards relative to valve rod 221, at this point, valve rod 221 and needle 222 it Between connection become to be rigidly connected.Second axial distance can be with first axis apart from same or different.In needle 222 and valve During needle connector 224 is integrally moved upwards relative to valve rod 221, elastic valve opening sealing element S22 can be with needle Connector 224 stretches upwards, but still protrusion on the transverse part of valve seat and be compressed in needle connector 224 and valve seat Between the protrusion of transverse part, and valve opening is surrounded, still is able to provide the sealing between needle component 220 and valve opening.In needle group Part 220 is configured to the top surface and valve rod of the transverse wall portion 2242 of the needle connector 224 under the closed state of electric expansion valve In the case that 221 lower end mutually abuts, as long as the driving mechanism of electric expansion valve does not drive needle component 220 at upward Movement is to open valve opening, even if needle 222 can not in the case where the active force of fluid is greater than the active force of spring 223 It is moved upwards relative to valve rod 221.
By the above-mentioned setting of needle component 220, under reverse fluid flow state, needle 222 is prevented from relative to valve Bar 221 moves upwards, or can move upwards under fluid force relative to valve rod 221, but be not unlimitedly to Upper movement.When third axially spaced-apart d3 is eliminated, before driving mechanism drives to open valve opening needle component 220, Needle 222 will not continue to move upwards relative to valve rod and in advance open valve opening, so that valve opening still keeps being closed, thus Above-mentioned interior leakage phenomenon is avoided the occurrence of, so that electric expansion valve can also work normally under reverse fluid flow state.
