Description

Thermostatic valve {THERMOSTATIC VALVE}

The present invention relates to an automatic temperature control valve, and more specifically, a rotary valve that adjusts the opening degree of the outlet port provided in the port through rotation, and an axial valve that adjusts the opening range of the inlet port provided in the port through elevation. Including, but provided with an integral axial valve that is arranged inside the port and integrally connected with the seat coupling portion to which the opening and closing seat is coupled and the pressing portion exposed to the outside of the rotary valve, to simplify the structure according to the reduction in the number of components constituting the axial valve. It relates to an automatic temperature control valve capable of improving the water tightness so as to improve the assembling property, increase the machining precision of the axial valve, thereby facilitating manufacturing, and prevent the leakage of fluid due to abrasion.

In general, in the case of a district-central heating apartment, a valve for opening and closing a flow path of a pipeline is installed in a hot water supply pipeline for heating indoors, and a valve driver is installed in the valve.

The valve driver is electrically connected to the temperature controller and driven, and the valve driver operates according to the required set temperature to control the opening and closing of the valve.

These thermostatic valves typically spend more time than when the valve is completely closed (when not using hot water) and open (when using hot water). That is, the non-heating time without hot water is longer than the heating time with hot water.

In such a thermostatic valve, it is possible to accurately recognize and control the opening/closing operation of the valve when the electric is on/off, and at the same time, electricity is supplied only when the valve is opened to save electricity, Various techniques have been proposed to extend the life span.

Conventional thermostatic valves are a method of opening and closing a low flow rate or large flow rate fluid with the concept of a ball valve, and such a ball valve method is impossible to accurately control the flow rate flowing therein, so that the user can accurately control the room temperature. There is a difficult problem.

As a conventional technique for solving the above problems, there is a registered patent No. 10-0815086.

The prior art relates to an automatic temperature control valve having a valve driver for opening and closing the valve according to the on/off drive signal of the temperature controller,

An inlet port is formed on one side and an outlet port is formed on the other side, and a valve port is formed between the body parts to flow the working fluid therein;

A valve shaft disposed inside the body part and connected to a lower end according to driving of the valve driver to open and close the valve port to open and close a flow of working fluid;

It is disposed between the body portion and the valve shaft has a rotatable structure, the lower end of the flow control portion formed an open outlet on one side of the arc wall; And

It includes a fixing nut portion fixed to the body portion by screwing from the outside of the flow control portion, and supporting the flow control portion to be rotatable therein;

It is characterized in that it is configured to achieve an adjustment of the opening degree of the open outlet with respect to the outlet through rotation of the flow rate adjusting portion with respect to the body portion, and to finely control the flow rate of the working fluid flowing inside the body portion.

Such an automatic temperature control valve enables the flow rate to be more accurately controlled by adjusting the opening degree of the flow path formed in the valve port in two stages by raising and lowering the valve shaft and rotating the flow control unit.

However, in the prior art, the valve shaft is configured to be vertically connected in a two-piece structure of the pressure pin and the body, and accordingly, the cap portion to which the pressure pin is fitted and the flow rate adjusting portion to which the body is fitted are screwed to increase the valve shaft. A shaft hole for descending is formed.

These valve shafts can be operated accurately only when the pressure pins and the body are connected vertically and accurately. Since the pressure pins and the body are fitted into the caps and the body, respectively, the straightness of the inner diameter of the shaft hole provided in the caps and the body must exactly match the pressure pins. Accurate vertical connection between the body and the body becomes possible.

However, since the cap part and the body part are manufactured through metal processing, it is very difficult to accurately match the straightness of the inner diameter of the shaft hole. In the conventional thermostatic valve, the pressure pin and the axis of the body part are twisted during assembly, causing frequent malfunctions and failures. , There is a problem in that the fluid flows backwards and leaks into the fine gap generated by the wrong axis, and wear occurs in the contact portion of the pressure pin and the body.

In addition, as the valve shaft is connected to the two-piece structure as in the prior art, the cap portion and the body portion required for their assembly are also made of a two-piece structure, and as a result of the increase in the number of parts used, not only the assembly is poor, but also the cap portion and the body. There is a problem in that the manufacturing cost increases due to the processing of metal and the productivity of the wealth decreases the price competitiveness.

Accordingly, the present invention was devised to solve the problems as described above,

Regardless of the straightness of the parts where the axial valve that opens and closes the inlet and outlet of the flow control unit by ascending and descending the opening and closing seat, the axis of the axial valve is not distorted to prevent fluid leakage, so that the axial valve is a conventional two-piece structure. Not, the sheet coupling portion and the pressing portion is formed integrally connected to one,

Furthermore, in the thermostatic valve according to the present invention,

The fixing member and the first rotating body and the second rotating body both have mounting grooves concavely formed along the outer circumferential surface,

Each mounting groove is characterized in that the O-ring is mounted.

The thermostatic valve according to the present invention,

In the conventional thermostatic valve, by making the axial valve separately manufactured and assembled in a two-piece structure of the pressure pin and the body, the integral part connected to the pressing part and the seat coupling part is integrated into the straightness of the parts to which the axial valve is assembled. Without preventing the axis line of the shaft valve from twisting, it is possible to prevent the fluid from flowing backward and leaking into the gap where the shaft valve is coupled,

The use of an integral axial valve reduces the number of components used compared to conventional thermostatic valves, simplifying the internal structure, improving assembly performance, and not requiring precision machining to match straightness. This enables injection molding of rotating valves, thereby improving productivity and reducing manufacturing costs.

The watertightness is enhanced through the multiple airtight structure that is matched to the integral axial valve structure, and the fluid leakage can be completely blocked.

In this state, since the fixing member 20 and the second rotating body 40 are all engaged with the cap member 50, the holding member 20 and the rotating valve TV are rotated when the cap member 50 is held and rotated. By rotating all, the fixing member 20 and the rotating valve TV may be simultaneously coupled to or separated from the mounting portion 13.

In this state, since only the second rotating body 40 is engaged with the cap member 50, when the cap member 50 is rotated by the valve driver, only the rotating valve TV is rotated, and the port 14 is discharged. The part 33 is opened and closed.

When explaining the flow control by the rotary valve (TV), first, when the wall portion 32 is blocking the entire outlet port 14b, the fluid is not discharged to the discharge unit 12,

In this state, when the rotation valve (TV) rotates in one direction, the outlet opening 33A overlaps the outlet 14b, and the opening range of the outlet 14b gradually increases, and the flow rate discharged to the outlet 12 gradually increases. , When the outlet hole 33A and the outlet port 14b completely overlap, the flow rate discharged to the outlet hole 33A reaches a maximum value.

Conversely, when the rotary valve TV rotates in the other direction in the closed state of the outlet 14b, the narrowing portion of the outlet groove 33B overlaps the outlet 14b, and the opening range of the outlet 14b gradually increases, and the outlet 12 When the flow rate discharged to is gradually increased, when the wide portion of the discharge groove 33B completely overlaps the discharge port 14b, the flow rate discharged to the discharge groove 33B reaches a maximum value.

The support protrusion 33a reduces the frictional area between the first rotating body 30 and the bottom portion 14A, thereby enabling smooth rotational operation of the rotating valve TV.

The axial valve 60 adjusts the flow rate by adjusting the opening range of the inlet 14a through elevation.

Specifically, the axial valve 60 has a single structure of a rod shape and has a seat engaging portion 61 to which the opening/closing seat 63 is coupled to the lower end, and the upper end is exposed to the upper portion of the second rotating body 40 and thus the valve The pressing part 62 connected to be pressed by the driver is formed.

The opening and closing sheet 63 is opened and closed in the inner space of the port 14 according to the elevation of the shaft valve 60 in a state of being in close contact with the inner circumferential surface of the wall portion 32 to open and close the inlet 14a.

Particularly, in the present invention, the axial valve 60 is made of a single structure, rather than a two-piece structure, and even if the straightness between the axial holes 31 and 41 does not coincide with each other, the entire axis of the axial valve 60 is twisted. It can not prevent fluid leakage,

Since it is not necessary to precisely process the straightness of each of the shaft holes 31 and 41, injection molding is possible with plastic synthetic resin without metal processing of the first and second rotating bodies 30 and 40, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost. Savings are possible,

The use of the integral axial valve 60 simplifies the assembly structure, making it easy to manufacture, and assembling the axial valve 60 is easy to help improve productivity.

The axial valve 60 is fitted while overlapping one or more from the upper portion of the seat coupling portion 61 up and down to the third O-ring 64 and the first washer 66 embedded in the first hermetic space portion 34. In the drawing, the two third O-rings 64 and the first washers 66 are intersected with each other to confirm the overlapping embodiment.

At this time, the number of the third O-ring 64 and the first washer 66 is not limited, but the first washer 66 is arranged at the top of the first hermetic space portion 34.

In addition, the axial valve 60 includes a second washer 67 fitted to the upper portion of the first washer 66 and fixed to the stepped portion.

The third washer 68 is fixed by the e-ring (69), while being pressed upward by the compression spring (43) to raise the axial valve (60) so that the opening/closing seat (63) opens the inlet (14a). Force it to open.

The e-ring 69 is a'C'-shaped metal ring, and is mounted on a fitting groove formed in a concave on the outer circumferential surface of the shaft valve 60 to prevent the third washer 68 from being pushed upward.

If the flow rate control by the axial valve 60 is described, first, the axial valve 60 is maintained up by the compression spring 43 and the inlet 14a as the opening/closing seat 63 is separated from the inlet 14a. Is fully opened, and in this state, the flow rate flowing into the inlet 14a reaches a maximum value.

And when the pressing part 62 is pressed by the pressurizing operation of the valve actuator, the compression spring 43 is compressed while the axial valve 60 descends, and accordingly the separation height between the opening/closing seat 63 and the inlet 14a is reduced. As the opening range of the inlet 14a gradually decreases as it narrows, the flow rate flowing into the inlet 14a gradually decreases, and when the opening/closing sheet 63 completely covers and closes the inlet 14a, the fluid is discharged 12 ).

At this time, the present design requires rotation of the rotary valve (TV) and elevating and raising of the integral axial valve (60), so between the outer diameter of the axial valve (60) and the inner diameter of each shaft hole (31, 41) to prevent wear There should be a tolerance, the third O-ring 64 embedded in the first hermetic space part 34 and the fourth O-ring 65 embedded in the second hermetic space part 44 are provided with the shaft valve 60 and the shaft hole. The gap between the (31) (41) is filled to prevent the fluid from flowing back into the interior space of the rotary valve (TV) and leaking.

In addition, the present invention is to fill the gap between the mounting portion 13 and the [fixed member 20, the first rotating body 30] with the first and second O-rings 23 and 37, the side wall portion 14B and the wall portion (32) to block the fluid leaking between, and fill the gap between the fixing member 20 and the second rotating body 40 with a fifth O-ring (47) between the first and second rotating bodies (30, 40) By blocking the leaking fluid,

Through the integral axial valve 60 and each O-ring, the water leakage is ensured more completely compared to the valve shaft of the conventional two-piece structure, so that the fluid leaks to other places except the inlet 11 and outlet 12. While completely blocked, it is possible to provide an improvement in assembling and a reduction in manufacturing cost.

In the above description, the automatic temperature control valve has been mainly described with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is capable of various modifications, changes, and replacements by those skilled in the art, and such modifications, changes, and replacements are the protection scope of the present invention.
