Abstract

A direct-action-type electrically-operated valve comprises a valve base provided with a valve cavity, a motor disposed on the upper end the valve base, and a screw rod. The screw rod is fitted and connected to a nut by means of threads. The nut is connected to a spool. Axial positions of a rotor of the motor and the valve base are relatively fixed. The upper end of the screw rod is fixedly connected to the rotor. Driven by the nut, the spool moves along the axial direction of the valve cavity to open or close a valve opening disposed on the valve base. The spool is a tubular structure provided with a balancing channel, and a seal piece for dividing the valve cavity into two independent cavities is disposed on the periphery of the spool.

Claims (9)

1. An assembling method for a direct-acting electric valve, comprising steps:

mounting an assembled valve core assembly to an assembled lower valve seat assembly;

screwing a screw rod of an assembled upper valve seat assembly into a nut of the valve core assembly, and fixing an upper valve seat of the upper valve seat assembly to a lower valve seat of the lower valve seat assembly by welding; and

mounting a housing and a fixing rest by pressing, and assembling a coil component of a motor,

wherein the assembling of the upper valve seat assembly comprises:

mounting the screw rod, a bearing and an upper valve seat by pressing;

mounting a spacer to an upper end of the bearing, and riveting or welding the spacer to the upper valve seat;

clamping a bush between the screw rod and the spacer, which allows the bush to abut against an upper end of the bearing and be fixed to the screw rod by welding; and

sleeving a rotor of a motor on an upper end of the upper valve seat, and fixedly connecting the rotor of the motor to the screw rod.
