Automatic water shut-off valve for low pressure

摘要

An automatic water shut-off valve for low pressure includes: a body having a nipple formed at a lower portion thereof; a rubber diaphragm inserted into a protruding threaded pipe formed at an outside portion of the body; and a pressure supporter pressurizing the rubber diaphragm, wherein the pressure supporter has a drain hole and the fixing cap has a cap drain hole, so that the fluid is drained through a fluid flow hole of the rubber diaphragm in the case of compressible air fluid or at pressure lower than set pressure and is stopped when the fluid switching face of the rubber diaphragm is grounded to a fluid stop protrusion of the pressure supporter in the case of incompressible fluid or at pressure higher than set pressure.

主权项

1. An automatic water shut-off valve comprising:
a body (2) having a fluid supply hole (24) formed in a longitudinal direction within the body (2), the body (2) having a generally tubular shape with a proximal portion for fixing to a water supply line and a distal portion including an enlarged pipe portion (22); an elastic diaphragm (3) installed within the enlarged pipe portion (22), the elastic diaphragm formed of an elastic sheet material and having an outer fixing flange portion (31) of generally annular shape, an inner switching face portion (33), an operation portion (34) connecting between the outer fixing flange portion and the inner switching face portion, and a central protrusion pipe portion (32); and a pressure supporter (4) installed within the enlarged pipe portion (22) and configured to press the outer fixing flange portion (31) of the diaphragm (3) with a fixing cap (5) coupled to enlarged pipe portion (22), wherein the central protrusion pipe portion (32) of the diaphragm has a closed front face, and a side wall portion with one or more fluid flow holes (35) formed laterally in the side wall portion thereof, wherein the pressure supporter (4) has a plurality of drain holes (45) and the fixing cap (5) has a plurality of second drain holes (51), so that a fluid is drained through the fluid flow holes (35) formed at the side wall portion of the diaphragm (3) when a compressible air flows or when a fluid flows at pressure lower than a set pressure and is automatically shut off when the inner switching face portion (33) of the diaphragm (3) abuts against a fluid stop protrusion (44) of the pressure supporter (4) when a fluid flows at pressure higher than the set pressure.
