  • two valves according to the prior art are applied to a water heater as shown in Figure 1 of the accompanying drawings.
  • One of the two valves a water inlet valve 1
  • a water outlet valve 2 is connected to a water outlet of the water heater to control the output of the hot water.
  • the water inlet valve 1 and the water outlet valve 2 are respectively provided with a sewage outlet to discharge the dirt in the water heater.
  • the inlet valve 1 provides three passages 1a, 1b and 1c.
  • the passage 1a is connected to the water inlet of the water heater.
  • the passage 1b is connected to a water supply pipe. This channel 1c is provided for draining.
  • the valve 1 has a first ball 1d and a second ball 1e.
  • the first ball 1d has a cavity 1f. This cavity 1f has three openings 1g, 1h and 1i.
  • the water inlet valve 1 has a water inlet connection state and a discharge line communication state.
  • the opening 1g communicates the chamber 1f to the passage 1a, and the opening 1h communicates the chamber 1f to the passage 1b, so that water in the water supply pipe can pass through the chamber 1f flows into the water heater.
  • the opening 1i faces the passage 1c, but due to the blocking action of the second ball 1e, the water in the passage 1a and the passage 1b does not flow out from the passage 1c. As shown in Figure 2A.
  • the water inlet valve 1 further includes two valve stems 1j and 1k to control the directions of the two balls 1d and 1e, respectively.
  • the ball 1e provides a through hole 11l.
  • the consumer When there is dirt in the water heater to be discharged, the consumer must first operate the valve handle 1j to rotate the ball 1d, so that the ball 1d blocks the communication between the cavity 1f and the channel 1b, thereby ensuring the channel 1b.
  • the water inside does not enter the chamber 1f and ensures that water in the chamber 1f does not enter the passage 1b.
  • the above operations are complicated and demanding.
  • the consumer must perform two steps and the order of operations cannot be reversed. If the operation sequence of the two valves 1k and 1j is reversed, dirt in the water heater may enter the passage 1b, so that the water in the water supply pipe communicating with the passage 1b may be contaminated by dirt.
  • the water discharge valve 2 has a structure similar to that of the water inlet valve 1. Unlike the valve 1, the valve provides four channels. A fourth passage 2m is provided to be connected to a pressure reducing valve 3. Similarly, if there is dirt in the water heater that needs to be discharged from the valve 2, the consumer must first operate a valve stem 2j and then operate a valve stem 2k.
  • valve 1 or the valve 2 the structure is complicated and requires more components. For example, it is necessary to provide at least two balls and at least two valve handles. The more components of these valves cause them to take up more space. Maintenance of these valves is also difficult. Such a complicated structure results in a complicated appearance of these valves, so that the water heater is extremely messy around. This will make consumers feel uncomfortable.
  • FIG. 4 illustrates a valve 4 in accordance with the prior art.
  • the valve 4 has three passages 4a, 4b and 4c.
  • the passage 4a is arranged to communicate with a water demanding device.
  • the passage 4b is arranged to communicate with a water supply device.
  • This channel 4c is arranged for blowdown.
  • the valve 4 is provided with only one ball 4d and only one valve stem is required.
  • the ball 4d has a cavity 4f.
  • This cavity 4f has three openings 4g, 4h and 4i.
  • the opening 4g communicates the chamber 4f to the passage 4a; the opening 4h communicates the chamber 4f to the passage 4b, so that water in the water supply device can flow through the chamber 4f To the water demand device.
  • the opening 4i faces the passage 4c, but due to the arrangement of a sealing member 4j and a cover 4k, water in the passages 4a and 4b does not flow out from the passage 4c.
  • the sealing member 4j is provided to prevent water in the cavity 4f from being leaked to the surface of the ball 4d via the opening 4i.
  • the cover 4k is provided to prevent water in the cavity 4f from flowing out of the passage 4c.
  • the ball 4d In a discharge state of the valve 4, the ball 4d is rotated to block communication between the cavity 4f and the passage 4b, and the passage 4a and the passage 4c pass through the opening 4i, the cavity 4f and the opening 4h. They are connected to each other so that water from the passage 4a can be discharged.
  • the cover 4k serves as an important barrier function, wherein the cover 4k may withstand the pressure of water from the passage 4c. The pressure of water from the passage 4c may cause a risk of damaging the cover 4k. Once the cover 4k is damaged, water from the passage 4a and the passage 4b may be leaked, and the environment of one room may be destroyed. Even if the consumer finds the damage of the cover 4k in time and the water leakage is controlled, the damage of the cover 4k will cause the valve 4 to be used before the cover 4k is repaired or replaced.
  • the water inlet passage of the valve 4 is not very straight, because the water from the passage 4b to the passage 4a may pass through a portion of the passage 4c and the valve 4
  • These corners are easy to store dirt. The dirt stored in these corners may enter the water demanding device together with the water from the passage 4b. Thus, the water in the water demand device will be contaminated.

Description

阀及其阀体 技术领域
本发明涉及一阀，更详而言之涉及一具有至少三个开口的阀。
背景技术
阀被广泛应用于各行各业。具有至少三个开口的阀非常有用。例如，根据现有技术的两个阀被应用于一热水器，如说明书附图之图1所示。这两个阀的其中之一，一进水阀1被连接至该热水器的一进水口，以控制冷水的进入。这两个阀的另外一个，一出水阀2被连接至该热水器的一出水口，以控制热水的输出。
被使用一段时间后，该热水器中可能会残留一些污垢，因此该进水阀1和该出水阀2分别设置有一排污口，以将该热水器中的污垢排出。
参考说明书附图之图1至图2C，该进水阀1提供三个通道1a，1b和1c。该通道1a被连通至该热水器的该进水口。该通道1b被连通至一供水管。该通道1c被设置，以供排污。该阀1具有一第一球1d和一第二球1e。该第一球1d具有一腔1f。该腔1f具有三个开口1g，1h和1i。该进水阀1具有一进水连通状态和一排污连通状态。
在该进水阀的该进水连通状态，该开口1g将该腔1f连通至该通道1a，并且该开口1h将该腔1f连通至该通道1b，因此该供水管中的水可以通过该腔1f流至该热水器内。在该进水阀的该进水连通状态，该开口1i朝向该通道1c，但是由于受到该第二球1e的阻挡作用，该通道1a和该通道1b内的水不会从该通道1c流出，如图2A所示。
该进水阀1进一步包括两个阀柄1j和1k，以分别控制该两个球1d和1e的方向。该球1e提供一通孔1l。当该热水器中有污垢需要被排出时，消费者必须首先操作该阀柄1j，以旋转该球1d，从而使该球1d阻隔该腔1f与该通道1b之间的连通，进而保证该通道1b内的水不会进入该腔1f，并保证该腔1f内的水不会进入该通道1b。然后消费者需要操作该阀柄1k，以转动该球1e，从而该通孔11同时与该腔1f和该通道1c连通，从而该热水器中带有污垢的水可以通过该腔1f、该通孔1l和该通道1c被排出。上述操作复杂且要求严格。消费者必须进行两步操作步骤，并且操作顺序不能颠倒。如果该两个阀1k和1j的操作顺序被颠倒，该热水器内的污垢可能会进入该通道1b，从而与该通道1b相连通的该供水管中的水可能会被污垢污染。
参考说明书附图之图1、图3A、图3B和图3C，该出水阀2具有与该进水阀1相似的结构。与该阀1不同的是，该阀提供四个通道。一第四通道2m被设置，以与一减压阀3连接。同样地，如果该热水器中有需要从该阀2排出的污垢时，消费者必须先操作一阀柄2j，然后 操作一阀柄2k。
无论该阀1还是该阀2，其结构都较为复杂，需要较多的组件。例如需要设置至少两个球和至少两个阀柄。这些阀较多的组件导致其占用较多的空间。这些阀的维护也比较困难。这样复杂的结构导致这些阀具有复杂的外观，从而该热水器周围显得极为杂乱。这将令消费者感到不舒服。
图4示意了根据现有技术的一阀4。该阀4具有三个通道4a、4b和4c。该通道4a被设置为与一需水装置连通。该通道4b被设置为与一供水装置连通。该通道4c被设置为供排污。与该阀1和该阀2相比，该阀4只设置有一球4d，并且只需要一阀柄。该球4d具有一腔4f。该腔4f具有三个开口4g、4h和4i。在该阀4的一进水连通状态，该开口4g将该腔4f连通至该通道4a；该开口4h将该腔4f连通至该通道4b，从而该供水装置中的水可以经由该腔4f流动至该需水装置。在该阀4的该进水连通状态，该开口4i朝向该通道4c，但是由于一密封元件4j和一盖4k的设置，该通道4a和4b内的水不会从该通道4c流出。该密封元件4j被设置，以防止该腔4f内的水经由该开口4i被漏至该球4d的表面。该盖4k被设置，以防止该腔4f内的水从该通道4c流出。在该阀4的一排污连通状态，该球4d被转动，以阻隔该腔4f与该通道4b之间的连通，并且该通道4a和该通道4c通过该开口4i、该腔4f和该开口4h相互连通，从而来自该通道4a的水可以被排出。如上所述，在该进水连通状态，该盖4k起到一个重要的阻隔作用，其中该盖4k可能承受来自该通道4c中水的压力。来自该通道4c中的水的压力可能带来损坏该盖4k的隐患。一旦该盖4k被损坏，来自该通道4a和该通道4b中的水可能会被漏出，进而一个房间的环境都可能被破坏。即使消费者及时发现该盖4k的损坏并且漏水被控制，该盖4k的损坏将会导致该盖4k被修好或者替换前，该阀4不能被使用。
值得一提的是，在该进水连通状态，该阀4的进水通路并不是很直，因为从该通道4b至该通道4a的水可能要通过该通道4c的一部分以及该阀4的一阀体4m的内表面和该球4d的外表面之间的空隙4l，因此从该通道4b至该通道4a的水可能要经过一些角落。而这些角落容易储存污垢。储存于这些角落的污垢可能会和来自该通道4b的水一起进入该需水装置。这样，该需水装置中的水将会被污染。该阀1和该阀2也存在这种隐患。

具体实施方式
以下描述用于揭露本发明以使本领域技术人员能够实现本发明。以下描述中的优选实施例只作为举例，本领域技术人员可以想到其他显而易见的变型。在以下描述中界定的本发明的基本原理可以应用于其他实施方案、变形方案、改进方案、等同方案以及没有背离本发明的精神和范围的其他技术方案。
本领域技术人员应理解的是，在本发明的揭露中，术语“纵向”、“横向”、“上”、“下”、“前”、“后”、“左”、“右”、“竖直”、“水平”、“顶”、“底”“内”、“外”等指示的方位或位置关系是基于附图所示的方位或位置关系，其仅是为了便于描述本发明和简化描述，而不是指示或暗示所指的装置或元件必须具有特定的方位、以特定的方位构造和操作，因此上述术语不能理解为对本发明的限制。
可以理解的是，术语“一”应理解为“至少一”或“一个或多个”，即在一个实施例中，一个元件的数量可以为一个，而在另外的实施例中，该元件的数量可以为多个，术语“一”不能理解为对数量的限制。
图5～13B阐释了根据本发明的一第一个优选实施例的一阀。该阀包括一引导元件10和一阀体20。该引导元件10提供一腔104和三个通道101，102和103。在该阀体20未被设置于该腔104内时，该三个通道101，102和103各自与该腔104相连通。换言之，在该阀体20未被设置于该腔104内时，该腔104与该三个通道101，102和103。该阀体20被安装于该腔104内，以可选择地控制该三个通道101，102和103之间的连通。具体地，该阀体20安装，以控制该通道101与该通道102或者该通道103连通，以选择该阀的连通方向，进而选择流体流向，例如水的流向。换言之，该阀体20安装，以控制该通道101和该通道102之间的连通以及该同奥101和该通道103之间的连通。
根据本发明的该第一个优选实施例，该阀体20分别在两个不同的状态提供两个不同的流道，以连通不同的通道。具体地，该阀体20设置有于通孔201和一开口槽202。该通孔201与该开口槽202相互间隔。根据本发明的该第一个优选实施例，该阀体20具体实施为一球，其中该球具有球体的形状并具有该通孔201和该开口槽202。该通孔201沿该球的一轴，即该阀体20的一轴延伸。根据本发明的该第一个优选实施例，该通孔201的形状为圆柱状。该圆柱状通孔201的轴与该阀体20的该轴重合，因此该通孔201的尺寸足够大，从而能够承受更大的水量。
该开口槽202被设置于该阀体20的外侧。该阀体20的方向能够被选择和调节，从而该阀具有两个不同的状态。
在该阀的一第一状态，该通孔201与该通道101以及该通道102相连通，从而该通道101和该通道102借助该通孔201相互连通，从而流体，例如水可以从该通道101流至该通道102，或者从该通道102流至该通道101。在该阀的该第一状态，该通道101，该通孔201和该通道102形成该阀的一第一流道1000。在该阀的该第一状态，该通孔201起到连通该通道101和该通道102的作用。具体地，该通道101具有一通道开口1011。该通道102具有一通道开口1021。该通道103具有一通道开口1031。在该阀的该第一状态，流体经过该流道1000从该通道开口1021流动至该通道开口1011，或者从该通道开口1011流动至该通道开口1021。流经该流道1000的流体不会到达该通道开口1031。
在该阀的该第一状态，该通道103与该通道101之间的连通以及该通道103与该通道102之间的连通被该阀体20阻挡，从而该通道103不与该通道101和该通道102的任意之一连通，如图7A至图8B所示。也就是说，在该阀的该第一状态，该通道103与该通道101以及该通道102之间的连通被该阀体20所阻断。
换言之，在该第一状态，该通道101与该通道102之间的连通是该通道101、该通道102以及该通道103之间唯一的连通。
如图12A所示，该阀体20具有一内表面21和一外表面22。该阀体20的该内表面21环绕该通孔201。换言之，该通孔201被设置，以形成该阀体20的该内表面21。
该外表面22包括一球面221。
该操202由一周壁23和一侧壁24形成。该侧壁24与该周壁23一体连接。该通孔201和该开口槽202被该侧壁24间隔。
