TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application relates to the technical field of switch valves, in particular to a switch valve for sodium persulfate production. BACKGROUND
[0002] Sodium persulfate is also called high sodium sulfate. It is white crystalline powder, odorless, and can be dissolved in water, used as bleaching agent, oxidizing agent and emulsion polymerization accelerator.
[0003] Valves are important accessories for controlling medium flow on chemical pipelines, especially for controlling objects in the reaction kettle and preventing leakage while the reaction kettle is working. At present, most of the discharge valve ports of the sodium persulfate production reaction kettle are used for continuous long-time production process. Because of the dead angle of the valve, sodium persulfate crystallizes in the dead angle, which affects the smoothness of the valve and even affects the sealing effect. Therefore, the valve needs to be manually maintained after a certain period of use. However, the operator must be specially trained, strictly follow the operating procedures, and wear a head cover type electrically powered air filter respirator, a polyethylene anti-toxic suit, and rubber gloves. The operator should stay away from fire, heat source, and avoid smoking in the workplace to avoid dust and contact with reducing agents, active metal powder, alkalis and alcohols. Manual maintenance is difficult, has many precautions, and is dangerous and time-consuming. Therefore, a switch valve for sodium persulfate production that can reduce the frequency of manual maintenance is needed. SUMMARY

A transmission channel and an airflow channel are arranged in the connecting rod, and both channels pass through the outer wall of the hollow cylinder. The butterfly plate is located in the hollow cylinder, the pneumatic actuator is arranged at the top of the connecting rod, and the valve rod is arranged in the transmission channel to drive the pneumatic actuator and the butterfly plate.

[0006] Preferably, the sealing assembly further comprises a temperature regulator, the second gas source valve is in communication with the airflow channel through the temperature regulator, and the temperature regulator adjusts the gas from the gas source and then enters the cavities.
[0007] Preferably, a temperature sensor is further arranged in the cavities of the sealing ring, the temperature sensor is electrically connected with the temperature regulator through an electric wire, and the electric wire is arranged along the airflow channel.
[0008] Preferably, the temperature sensor obtains the internal temperature of the sealing ring, if the internal temperature is higher than the working temperature range of the sealing ring, the temperature regulator lowers the temperature of the gas from the gas source and then enters the cavities; if the internal temperature is lower than the working temperature range of the sealing ring, the temperature regulator raises the temperature of the gas from the gas source and then enters the cavities.
[0009] Preferably, the sealing ring at the corresponding position of the transmission channel is in interference fit with the valve rod.
[0010] Preferably, the sealing ring is sealingly fixed on the inner wall of the hollow cylinder. When the sealing ring is sealingly fixed, the cavities are aligned and in communication with the airflow channel, and the different cavities are in communication with each other.

[0014] Preferably, the valve rod and the butterfly plate are coated with a polytetrafluoroethylene coating.
[0015] The beneficial effects of the present application are that: by adding an additional air flow channel, intermittent inflation and deflation can be performed when the medium flows at the on-off valve for sodium persulfate production in the discharge state using the air source, combined with the elastic material, so that the crystallized sodium persulfate on the surface of the sealing ring is repeatedly extruded and stretched and then broken into pieces, and then carried away by the medium flow, thereby avoiding the problem of residue or stuck butterfly plate during cleaning at other times; and by inflating the cavity when the closed state occurs and leakage occurs, the function of emergency leak stoppage can be achieved, avoiding pollution of the leakage to the product or causing other dangers; and because the temperature change of the medium in the on-off valve for sodium persulfate production causes thermal expansion and contraction of the components, resulting in sealing failure, therefore, the leakage caused by this reason can also be overcome by achieving leak stoppage after inflation; at the same time, the same air source as the valve body assembly is used, which can simplify the design and be compatible with the existing pneumatic butterfly valve; the air flow channel is arranged in the valve body, reducing the stroke of the exposed pipeline and avoiding damage due to external force acting on the exposed pipeline.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0017] In order to explain the technical content, purposes and effects of the present application in detail, the following will be described in conjunction with the embodiments and the accompanying drawings.
[0018] Please refer to Figs. 1 to 3 An on-off valve for sodium persulfate production, comprising an air source, a valve body assembly 1 and a sealing assembly 2. The valve body assembly 1 comprises a first air source valve 11, a pneumatic actuator 12, a valve body 13, a valve rod 14, and a butterfly plate 15, wherein the valve body 13 comprises a hollow cylinder 131 and a connecting rod 132, the connecting rod 132 is vertically connected to the outer wall of the hollow cylinder 131, the connecting rod 132 is provided with a transmission channel 133 and an airflow channel 134, the transmission channel 133 and the airflow channel 134 both pass through the outer wall of the hollow cylinder 131, the butterfly plate 15 is located in the hollow cylinder 131, the pneumatic actuator 12 is arranged at the top of the connecting rod 132, the valve rod 14 is located in the transmission channel 133 and is in transmission connection with the pneumatic actuator 12 and the butterfly plate 15, and the pneumatic actuator 12 is in communication with the air source through the first air source valve 11. The sealing assembly 2 comprises a second air source valve 21 and a sealing ring 22, the sealing ring 22 is made of elastic material, the sealing ring 22 is sleeved on the inner wall of the valve body 13 and is located between the valve body 13 and the butterfly plate 15, the sealing ring 22 is provided with an extension channel corresponding to the transmission channel 133 for the valve rod 14 to pass through, the sealing ring 22 is provided with a plurality of cavities 23, the cavities 23 are circumferentially distributed, the cavities 23 are in communication with the airflow channel 134, the second air source valve 21 is in communication with the air source, the outside and the airflow channel 134, the second air source valve 21 is in communication with the air source to inflate, and the second air source valve 21 is in communication with the outside to deflate. When the switch valve for sodium persulfate production is in a discharging state, the second air source valve 21 intermittently inflates and deflates the cavities 23, the intermittent inflation causes the sealing ring 22 to deform, so that the crystallized sodium persulfate in the switch valve for sodium persulfate production is separated from the fluid and discharged; if the switch valve for sodium persulfate production is in a closed state and leakage occurs, the second air source valve 21 is connected to the air source to inflate the cavities 23, and then realizes plugging after stopping inflation.
[0019] From the above description, by adding an additional air flow channel 134, the gas source can be used to produce intermittent inflation and deflation when the sodium persulfate production switch valve is in the discharge state. Combined with the elastic material, the crystallized sodium persulfate on the surface of the sealing ring 22 is repeatedly squeezed and stretched, and then the crystalline fragments are carried away by the medium flow, thereby avoiding the problem of residue or jamming of the butterfly plate 15 during cleaning at other times. And when the cavity 23 is inflated due to leakage in the closed state, it can play an emergency leak stoppage role to avoid contamination of the product or cause other dangers. And because the temperature change of the sodium persulfate production switch valve causes the parts to expand and contract, resulting in sealing failure, inflation can also overcome the leakage caused by this reason. At the same time, it uses the same gas source as the valve body assembly 1, which can simplify the design and be compatible with existing pneumatic butterfly valves. The air flow channel 134 is arranged in the valve body 13 to reduce the travel of the exposed pipeline and avoid damage due to external forces.
[0020] Further, the sealing assembly 2 further comprises a temperature regulator 24, and the second gas source valve 21 is in communication with the air flow channel 134 through the temperature regulator 24. The temperature regulator 24 adjusts the gas from the gas source and enters the cavity 23.
[0021] From the above description, by setting the temperature regulator 24, the gas from the gas source can be adjusted to a predetermined temperature, so that the sealing ring 22 always maintains a predetermined working temperature range, ensuring the sealing effect.
[0022] Further, the cavity 23 of the sealing ring 22 further comprises a temperature sensor, and the temperature sensor is electrically connected with the temperature regulator 24 through an electric wire, and the electric wire is arranged along the air flow channel 134.
[0023] From the above description, by setting the temperature sensor, the temperature inside the sealing ring 22 can be accurately obtained, ensuring the temperature regulating effect. The temperature sensor is arranged in the cavity 23, which is convenient to insert, and the electric wire is arranged along the air flow channel 134, making wiring more convenient.
[0024] Further, the temperature sensor obtains the temperature inside the sealing ring 22. If the temperature is higher than the working temperature range of the sealing ring 22, the temperature regulator 24 cools the gas from the gas source and enters the cavity 23. If the temperature is lower than the working temperature range of the sealing ring 22, the temperature regulator 24 warms the gas from the gas source and enters the cavity 23.
[0025] From the above description, by adjusting the temperature of the gas, the working temperature of the sealing ring 22 can always be at an appropriate temperature.
[0026] Further, the sealing ring 22 is in interference fit with the valve stem 14 at the corresponding position.
[0027] As can be seen from the above description, the interference fit can avoid leakage.
[0028] Further, the sealing ring 22 is fixed and sealed on the inner wall of the hollow cylinder 131. When the sealing ring 22 is fixed and sealed, the cavities 23 are aligned and communicated with the airflow channel 134, and the cavities 23 are communicated with each other.
[0029] As can be seen from the above description, the sealing ring 22 is fixed and sealed on the inner wall of the hollow cylinder 131, which can avoid gas leakage at the connection between the cavities 23 and the airflow channel 134.
[0030] Further, the inner wall of the hollow cylinder 131 is polished.
[0031] As can be seen from the above description, the polished inner wall can reduce the gap, make the connection between the sealing ring 22 and the hollow cylinder 131 more tight, and avoid gas leakage.
[0032] Further, the material of the sealing ring 22 is fluororubber or perfluoroether rubber.
[0033] As can be seen from the above description, the fluororubber or perfluoroether rubber can be more corrosion resistant.
[0034] Further, the valve stem 14 and the butterfly plate 15 are made of 316L stainless steel.
[0035] Further, the valve stem 14 and the butterfly plate 15 are coated with a polytetrafluoroethylene coating.
[0036] As can be seen from the above description, the polytetrafluoroethylene coating can reduce friction, avoid wear and tear, shorten the service life of the sealing ring 22, and also be more corrosion resistant. Embodiment one
