SWITCHING VALVE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240044412 titled 'SWITCHING VALVE

Simplified Explanation

The switching valve described in the patent application consists of a base with a bottom wall and a side wall, a body that can be connected to the base to create a cavity between the bottom plate of the body and the bottom wall and side wall of the base. The bottom plate of the body has two through holes that are connected to the cavity. Inside the cavity, there are two sliders and two driving rods, with each driving rod being movable and connected to one of the through holes in the body. The driving rods can block or unblock the through holes by moving relative to them. The sliders can slide in response to the movement of the driving rods, allowing only one through hole to be unblocked at a time.

  • The switching valve has a base and a body that can be coupled together to create a cavity.
  • The bottom plate of the body has two through holes that are fluidly connected to the cavity.
  • Two sliders and two driving rods are present within the cavity.
  • Each driving rod is movably coupled to one of the through holes in the body.
  • The driving rods can move to block or unblock the through holes.
  • The sliders can slide in response to the movement of the driving rods.
  • Only one through hole can be unblocked at a time.

Potential Applications

  • Fluid control systems
  • Pneumatic systems
  • Hydraulic systems
  • Industrial automation

Problems Solved

  • Efficient switching between fluid flow paths
  • Precise control of fluid flow
  • Minimizing leakage and cross-contamination in fluid systems

Benefits

  • Improved efficiency in fluid control
  • Enhanced precision in fluid flow management
  • Reduced risk of leakage and contamination in fluid systems
  • Versatile and adaptable for various applications


Original Abstract Submitted

a switching valve includes a base including a bottom wall and a side wall that extends from the bottom wall of the base along a circumferential direction of the bottom wall, a body that can couple to the base to define a cavity between a bottom plate of the body and the bottom wall and the side wall of the base, in which the bottom plate includes two through holes that are each fluidly coupled to the cavity, two sliders disposed within the cavity, and two driving rods each movably coupled to one of the two through holes of the body, in which each driving rod can move relative to the two through holes to block or unblock each respective through hole. each slider can slide responsive to movement of one of the two driving rods such that only one through hole is unblocked at one time.
