附图说明
为了便于理解本申请,在下文中基于示例性实施例并结合附图来更详细地描述本申请。在附图中使用相同或相似的附图标记来表示相同或相似的构件。应该理解的是,附图仅是示意性的,附图中的构件的尺寸和比例不一定精确。
图1是说明现有的流量控制阀的主要部分的概略结构示意图。
图2是本申请实施例提供的流量控制阀的闭阀状态的纵向剖视图。
图3是图2中的阀体的纵向剖视图。
图4是图2中的阀芯的纵向剖视图。
具体实施方式
以下参照附图对本申请的流量控制阀的实施方式进行说明,说明中的“上下”的概念与图中的上下对应。
如图1所示,现有的流量控制阀1包括阀体11和阀芯12。阀体11上设有阀座部111,并且阀座部111上形成阀口112。阀芯12设置在阀体11中,并位于导向部13内。阀芯12可沿着导向部13轴向移动以使阀芯12抵接或者远离阀座部111从而使得阀口112打 开或者关闭进而实现对流量控制阀1的开闭或者流量调节的控制。阀芯12内设有均压通路121以将阀口112处的流体引入至背压室14。
然而,本申请的发明人发现,当流体从阀口112处流入时,由于流体的流动特性,流体实际作用在阀芯12下部的底平面122上压力并不是均匀的。阀芯12的下部的中央处(图1中的A处)的流体相较于阀芯下部的中央处以外的区域(图1中的B处)的流体的密度较高压力较大。阀芯12的下部的中央处(图1中的A处)的压力通过均压通路121会流入至背压室14(图1中的C处),因此背压室14的压力与所述阀芯的下部的中央处的压力相等。但是由于阀芯下部的压力的不均匀,因此阀芯12的上部和下部的压力会产生向下的差压,这会导致流量控制阀1的阀芯12很难取得充分的平衡。
为了解决上述问题,本申请实施例提供一种流量控制阀2,该流量控制阀2为压力平衡型流量控制阀。如图2所示,该流量控制阀2可以包括阀体21、阀芯22、执行部23。
结合图3可以清晰地示出,阀体21中设置有阀座部211和阀室212。阀座部211可以位于阀体21的下端,并且阀座部形成有阀口213。阀口213的下端具有第一安装孔214,阀室212侧端可具有第二安装孔215。
继续参见图2,阀芯22可轴向移动以穿过阀室212而抵接或远离阀座部211,从而可以关闭或打开阀口213。阀芯22内设置有连通阀口213和背压室24的均压通路221。均压通路221可位于阀芯22的中心处。
执行部23可包括位于壳体231内的转子和壳体231外的定子232,壳体231与阀体21形成封闭的腔室(图中未示出),执行部23用于驱动阀芯22沿着轴向移动。当执行部23带动阀芯22抵接阀座部211时,阀口213为闭阀状态以阻断流体在阀口213与阀室212之间流动;当执行部23带动阀芯22远离阀座212时,阀口213为开阀状态以允许流体在阀口213与阀室212之间流动,并且阀芯22的开度可以控制流体的流量。
此外,在一些实施例中,如图2所示,第一安装孔214内设置有第一接头管25,第二安装孔215内设置有第二接头管26。当第一接头管25作为出口管,第二接头管26作为入口管时,流体的流动方向为第一流动方向。当第一接头管25作为入口管,第二接头管26作为出口管时,流体的流动方向为第二流动方向。
结合图4可清晰地看出,阀芯22具有呈大致圆柱形的下端部222,且阀芯22内形成有锥孔223。该锥孔223构成均压通路221的一部分且锥孔223的底端位于下端部222的底平面224上。锥孔223的底端的直径与下端部222的直径之比大于0.88,下端部222的直径指的是下端部222的呈大致圆柱形的外轮廓的直径。
本申请实施例在流量控制阀的阀芯22中设置锥孔223,该锥孔223构成均压通路221 的一部分,其底端位于阀芯的下端部的底平面224上。该锥孔223的底端的直径与阀芯的下端部222的直径之比大于0.88。通过这样的设置使得分布在阀芯22下部的阀口213处的压力尽量均匀分布,从而可以平衡背压室24与阀口213处的流体压力。这种压力的均匀化使阀芯22的上下部充分平衡的效果在上述第二流动方向的情况下最为突出。
本申请实施例对锥孔223的开口方向和具体尺寸不做具体限定。如图4所示,锥孔的223的开口朝向底平面224,锥孔223的圆锥角θ为40°~120。锥孔223的底端的直径大于锥孔的顶端的直径。锥孔223的底端的直径与下端部222的直径之比为0.89~0.97,优选地,锥孔223的底端的直径与下端部222的直径之比为0.92~0.96。特别地,本申请实施例中的锥孔223的底端的直径与下端部222的直径之比为0.95。通过将锥孔223的尺寸进行上述限定可以使得流体在背压室24和阀口213处的压力得到尽可能好的平衡。
本申请对均压通路221中锥孔223之外的部分不做具体限定。在一些实施方式中,均压通路221可以包括锥孔223和直径单一的圆柱孔,锥孔223可从此圆柱孔处起向底平面224延伸。在另一些实施方式中,如图2和图4所示,均压通路221可以包括圆柱部225、连接部226以及锥孔223,圆柱部225、连接部226以及锥孔223依次连接且直径逐渐增大。连接部226可以是圆柱状或者是圆锥状,或者还可以是圆锥状和圆柱状的结合。通过设置连接部226既可以为阀芯22减重以减轻执行部23的负载,还可以避免由于均压通路221的圆柱孔的长度太长而导致的加工难度高的问题。
如图2所示,在一些实施例中,阀体21中设置有导向孔216,阀芯22上还设置有受导向孔216引导的导向部227。在导向孔216与导向部227中的一者上设置有密封件27,导向部227通过密封件27能够滑动的套设在导向孔216中,且密封件27可以将背压室24与阀室212进行隔离。本申请对导向部227的直径不做具体的限定,例如,导向部227的直径可与阀芯的下端部222的直径相同。通过将导向部227的直径设置为与阀芯的下端部222的直径相同可以尽量减小背压室24和阀口213处的流体的作用面积之差,从而进一步的使阀芯的上下取得的平衡。
本申请实施例对导向孔216的结构不做具体的限定,只要导向孔216可以引导阀芯22沿着导向孔216的方向可以抵接或远离阀座部211即可。例如,如图3所示,导向孔216可以形成于阀体21上并与阀口213一体形成。这样的设置可以在阀体21上直接形成导向孔216,因此加工方式简单可以极大地减少加工成本。或者,导向孔216可以设置在单独的导向件上,该导向件可以安装在阀体21中。
本申请实施例对密封件27的结构和安装位置不做具体的限定。在一些实施例中密封件27可以是一种密封圈,例如O型密封圈或者Y型密封圈,或者是涂覆有特氟龙的密封 圈。另外,如图2和图3所示,密封件27可以安装在导向部227和导向孔216之间,密封件27的安装槽228可以设置在导向部227上。在另一些实施例中,密封件27的安装槽228还可以设置在导向孔216中。
通过前述内容可知,阀芯22可轴向移动以穿过阀室212而使其下端部222抵接或远离阀座部211。当下端部222接触阀座部211时,下端部222可与阀座部211密封以使阀口213关闭。本申请实施例对于下端部222的结构不做具体的限定。在一些实施例中,如图4所示,下端部222包括位于下端部的外圆柱面229以及下端部的底平面224,并且底平面224与外圆柱面229之间可设有过渡圆角230,下端部222通过过渡圆角230与阀座部211接触以关闭阀口213。通过过渡圆角230与阀座部211的配合可以使流体在阀口213处的作用面积与流体在密封件27处的作用面积尽量接近,且过渡圆角230使得阀芯22与阀座部211之间为金属与金属的硬密封,以避免使用另外的密封件,从而简化了密封结构。
本申请对于过渡圆角230的结构不做具体的限定。例如,如图4所示,过渡圆角230的一端与下端部的外圆柱面229相切,过渡圆角230的另一端与下端部的底平面224相切。也就是说过渡圆角230的结构可始终保持为整圆的1/4。
另外,在一些实施例中,如图4所示,阀芯22的侧壁上可具有环绕阀芯22的轴线设置的环形槽240,其位于导向部227与下端部222之间。环形槽240的设置可以使阀芯的重量减小,从而可以减小执行部23的负载。能够理解,也可以不设置环形槽240,而使得导向部227一直延伸到下端部222。
本申请实施例对阀座部211的结构不做具体限定,只要阀座部211和阀芯22配合能够实现对阀口213的开闭即可。例如,阀座部211可以包括圆柱部分以及圆锥部分,圆柱部分形成阀口213,圆锥部分与圆柱部分连接且形成落座面。圆锥部分可以是具有单一圆锥角度的圆锥部分,这种阀座212结构简单,加工比较方便。在另一些实施例中,如图3所示,阀座212可以由圆柱形阀口213以及从圆柱形阀口213起依次相连且直径逐渐扩大的第一圆锥部217、第二圆锥部218和第三圆锥部219共同形成的圆锥部分形成,其中第一圆锥部217形成阀芯22的落座面。将圆锥部分设置为圆锥角度各不相同的三个圆锥部可以控制阀芯22在不同的开度时提供不同的流量。例如,第二圆锥部218与阀口213的轴线所成的夹角可以小于第三圆锥部219与阀口213轴线所成的夹角,以在小开度时提供更精确的流动控制。
以上所述仅为本申请的较佳实施例而已,并不用以限制本申请,凡在本申请的精神和原则之内,所作的任何修改、等同替换等,均应包含在本申请的保护范围之内。
