Kachline, Norristown, Pa, assignor to Robertshaw Controls Company, a corporation of Delaware Filed Dec. 15, 1961, Ser. No. 159,644 8 Ciaims. (Ci. 137608) This invention relates generally to pressure dividers and more particularly, to devices for providing a selectively variable output pressure from a constant pressure source.
It is an object of this invention to provide a pressure divider having a minimum number of moving parts and connections.
Another object of this invention is to provide a pressure divider for providing a selectively variable pressure drop between a constant pressure input and a controlled pressure output.
Still another object of this invention is to provide a pressure divided comprising two juxatposed circular plates having one plate relatively rotatable with respect to the other, whereby the output pressure from said pressure divider is proportional to the angular displacement of the said one plate with respect to the said other plate.
Still another object of this invention is to provide a pressure divider which is adapted for use with either a pressure source or a vacuum source.
Still another object of this invention is to provide a pneumatic pressure divider wherein the air consumption of the device is constant throughout its range of operation.
Yet another object of this invention is to provide a three terminal pneumatic pressure divider having a simple, rugged and inexpensive construction which is readily adaptable to be directly driven by mechanical drive means.
These and other objects of this invention will become apparent with reference to the following specification and drawings which relate to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
FIGURE 1 is a cross sectional view in side elevation through a diameter of the present invention revealing all of the essential elements thereof; and
FIGURE 2 is a bottom plan view of FIGURE 1 with the elements thereof in a relative position different from that shown in FIGURE 1.
Referring in detail to the drawings, the rotary pneumatic pressure divider 10 is shown as comprising a first circular plate 12, having a pressure pick-oft outlet port 14 extending therethrough, rotatably connected in juxtaposition with a second circular plate 16, by means of an axially disposed shaft or pin 18 having locking flanges 20 on either end thereof, the said second circular plate including a pressure supply port 22 and a pressure exhaust port 24 extending therethrough and spaced apart and interconnected via a V-shaped arcuate restricting groove 26 in that face of the second circular plate 16 which is juxtaposed with the first circular plate 12. The juxtaposed face of the plate 12 comprises a third side for the restricting groove 26 making the said groove triangular in cross-section.
The radial position of the pressure pick-oft port 14 in the first plate 12 and the radius of the arcuate groove 26 in the inner face of the second plate, with respect to the axial shaft 18, are equal so that over the span of the arcuate restricting groove 26, the pressure pick-off port 14 will always be in registry therewith.
In operation, a regulated pressure source, not shown, is connected to the pressure divider 10 at the supply port 22. This causes a flow of air from the supply port 22, through the arcuate restricting groove 26 between the circular plates 12 and 16, and out through the exhaust port 24.
The rate of flow of air through the arcuate restricting groove 26 is a function of the cross-sectional area of the restricting groove 26 as defined between the inner faces of the plates 12 and 16. Thus, depending on the said cross-sectional area and the length of the restricting groove'26, the resistance to the flow of air therein produces a pressure gradient along the said restricting groove from the supply port 22 to the exhaust port 24.
It now a pressure receiver (not shown) is connected to the pick-off port 14 in the plate 12, the pressure transmitted from the pick-off port 14 to the said pressure receiver may be selectively varied as a function of the relative position of the said pick-off port 14, with respect to the supply port 22 and the exhaust port 24, along the length of the said restricting groove 26. The pick-01f port 14 is shown in FIGURE 2 as being intermediate the supply port 22 and the exhaust port 24 along the restricting groove 26.
The range of pressures available at the pick-off port 14 extend from the magnitude of the supply pressure, when the pick-off port 14 is moved into registry with the supply port 22 by rotating the first plate 12 about the pin 18, to the atmospheric or exhaust pressure at the said exhaust port 24 as the plate 12 is rotated to move the pick-off port 14 along the restricting groove 26 in registry therewith.
The above operation would also apply to the use of a vacuum source at the supply port 22.
As can be seen from the foregoing specification and drawings this invention provides a new and novel variable pressure divider having a rugged, simple and accurate structure.
It is to be understood that the embodiment shown and described herein is for the purpose of example only and is not intended to limit the scope of the appended claims.
