Description

ACTUATOR FOR DRIVING VALVE

The present invention relates to a valve actuating actuator, and more particularly to a valve actuating actuator capable of automatically adjusting the opening amount of the valve.

Valves are installed in the fluid line and used to control the flow rate of various fluids. Although the opening amount may be manually adjusted by the user, the valve is automatically adjusted in a system that needs to automatically adjust the fluid supply amount such as hot water, such as an automatic control heating system.

The automatic control heating system includes a heating hot water supply header for supplying hot water heated by the boiler to each room, a heating hot water return header for returning hot water discharged from each room to the boiler, and a heating hot water return header installed at the heating hot water return header. With a valve. The hot water control valve is provided with an actuator for automatically adjusting the opening amount of the hot water control valve.

The actuator for the hot water control valve is controlled by a control unit connected to an indoor temperature controller, and is classified into an indoor temperature detection method and a return temperature detection method according to a temperature detection method. The indoor temperature sensing method regulates the heating hot water circulation amount by sensing the indoor temperature to control the hot water control valve, and the return temperature sensing method controls the heating hot water circulation amount by controlling the hot water control valve by detecting the return temperature.

Conventional hot water control valve actuator, the case body consisting of a ring body coupled to the upper portion of the lower body and a lower portion having a predetermined space and vertically movable a cap and a cap coupled to the upper portion of the ring body, a motor installed inside the cap, A plurality of reduction gears connected to the motor to decelerate rotation of the motor, a rotation shaft installed to decelerately rotate by the reduction gears; When the deceleration gear with magnets and magnets installed to be arranged at equal intervals in any one of the actuator and the reduction gear is moved vertically in a predetermined space of the lower body by the rotation of the vertical body to control the opening and closing operation of the valve. Check the time, rotation speed, and rotation direction between the magnets with a Hall sensor and convert it to an electronic signal.

Conventional valve actuating actuators vertically move the stem for opening and closing the valve flow path while the actuator for controlling the opening and closing operation of the valve moves vertically by the action of the screw. Excessive or less pressurized. Excessive pressurization of the stem by the actuator may result in damage to the valve, and under-pressurization of the stem by the actuator results in a problem that the flow path of the valve is not completely closed.

Therefore, conventional valve actuating actuators require precise management of manufacturing tolerances and assembly tolerances of each component, resulting in long production times and high production costs. In addition, even if such a problem does not occur in the initial stage of installation of the actuator, repeated use may be difficult to adjust the opening amount of the valve as the various parts are worn.

In addition, since the valve actuating actuator is set to the design length of the stem, when the stem is machined longer than the design length, the moving actuator may contact the inner surface of the valve by the action of the screw, and excessively pressurize the stem which completely closes the flow path. In this case, the valve actuating actuator may be damaged by the reaction force of the stem as well as the valve. Conversely, when the stem is machined shorter than the design length, the actuator may stop pressing against the stem without the stem completely closing the flow path of the valve. In this case, since the flow path of the valve is not completely closed, the reliability of the product may be degraded.

The present invention has been made in view of this point, and even if there is a length tolerance in the stem for opening and closing the flow path of the valve, by providing an appropriate pressing force to the stem without excessively or less pressing the stem, it reduces the risk of breakage and It is an object of the present invention to provide a valve actuating actuator that can increase reliability.
