Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of valve bodies and relates to a cryogenic top-mounted triple-eccentric butterfly valve. Background Art

[0002] With the implementation of the national coal-to-gas plan, liquefied natural gas (LNG) has rapidly emerged as a new type of clean and efficient energy. The country plans to increase the proportion of natural gas in the total energy consumption to 80% by 2050, which has greatly increased the demand for valves in low-temperature working conditions such as LNG, and the market scale has increased sharply. However, the design and manufacturing technologies of cryogenic valves are still basically monopolized by foreign countries. With the rapid development of the LNG industry in China, it has become more urgent to design and manufacture cryogenic valves with independent intellectual property rights.

[0003] Cryogenic butterfly valves are widely used in the LNG industry. Their key technologies include: 1. Increasing the low-temperature elasticity of the sealing pair from the aspects of materials and structures to avoid seal failure or movement jamming of components under low-temperature working conditions. 2. Allowing on-line maintenance to ensure that the valve internals can be quickly disassembled from the top of the valve and the valve stem has a function of preventing blowing out. 3. Avoiding sudden changes in the structural shape or local stress concentration that may cause elastoplastic deformation of components. 4. Meeting the requirements of fire prevention and anti-static.

[0004] At present, most cryogenic butterfly valves at home and abroad adopt a side-opening window structure, and on-line maintenance of the valve is achieved through a side inspection window. However, the maintenance space of valves with this structure is limited. When the valve internals are severely damaged or the valve diameter is small, it is difficult to carry out maintenance work, and the maintenance cycle is long, resulting in waste of user costs. Most of the sealing valve seats are integral, which is not conducive to processing and subsequent maintenance work, thus reducing the reliability and maintainability of valve operation.

A disc spring is arranged in the inner cavity of the limiting sleeve. The upper end of the disc spring abuts against the inner cavity top plate of the limiting sleeve, and the lower end of the disc spring presses on the packing pressing plate. The limiting sleeve is limited and fixed on the connecting bolt through a nut.

Detailed implementation manners

[0036] The following further explains the detailed implementation manners of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0037] As Figures 1 - 8As shown in the figure, the present invention is a low-temperature top-mounted triple-eccentric butterfly valve, including a valve body 4. When in use, both ends of the valve body 4 are connected to the pipeline by butt welding. The valve body 4 is hermetically and limit-connected to the bottom upper cover 25, and the upper end of the bottom upper cover 25 is hermetically and limit-connected to the top upper cover 21.

[0038] As Figure 2 shown in the figure, a valve seat installation boss 4-1 is constructed in the inner cavity of the valve body 4, and the valve seat assembly 3 is limit-installed in the inner hole of the valve seat installation boss 4-1. In order to effectively enhance the strength of the valve body 4, multiple reinforcing ribs 4-2 are provided on the surface of the valve body 4 to improve the stress condition and the distribution of the temperature field of the valve body 4. The cross-sectional structure of the valve plate is designed according to fluid dynamics, which not only enhances the strength of the valve plate but also effectively reduces the pressure loss of the valve. The valve body 4 is also provided with a position mark 4-3, which is convenient for preventing misplacement and positioning during the processing.

[0039] A valve shaft 6 is rotatably arranged on the valve body 4. The valve shaft 6 extends out from the upper cavity at the top of the valve body 4 and sequentially passes through the bottom upper cover 25 and the top upper cover 21. Dynamic seals are respectively formed between the valve shaft 6 and the inner holes of the top upper cover 21 and the bottom upper cover 25. A valve plate assembly 5 is installed on the valve shaft 6, and the valve plate assembly 5 cooperates with the valve seat assembly 3.

[0040] As Figure 5 shown in the figure, the valve plate assembly 5 includes a valve plate 5-2. The valve shaft 6 and the valve plate 5-2 are connected by a flat key 5-7. A guiding groove 6-2 extending along the axial direction is provided on the valve shaft 6. A positioning hole 6-3 is provided at the upper end of the bottom plate of the guiding groove 6-2. A positioning boss 5-12 of the valve plate 5-2 is provided with a limit bolt 5-8 in cooperation. The limit bolt 5-8 is threadedly connected with the positioning hole 6-3 to limit and fix the valve plate 5-2 and the valve shaft 6. As Figure 6 shown in the figure, in specific practice, a fourth winding gasket 5-6 and a sealing ring 5-5 are limit-set on the working surface of the valve plate 5-2. The sealing ring 5-5 is pressed by a retainer ring 5-1. The sealing ring 5-5 serves as a redundant seal supplement for the sealing ring 5-5, and presses one end of the sealing ring to compensate for the sealing force of the sealing ring, which is beneficial to ensuring that the valve can meet the ANSI Ⅵ class sealing grade requirements for a long time. The retainer ring 5-1 is fixed to the valve plate 5-2 by an internal hexagonal screw 5-3, and a second disc washer 5-4 is provided on the internal hexagonal screw 5-3.

[0041] In the present invention, the positioning between the valve plate 5-2 and the valve shaft 6 and the self-centering between the sealing ring 5-5 provided on the valve plate 5-2 and the split valve seat 3-1 are beneficial to the reliability of the seal. The split valve seat 3-1 and the sealing ring 5-5 can be interchanged, which greatly improves the reliability of the product, saves space, has good sealing performance and good maintainability. Two process bosses 5-10 are also provided on the valve plate 5-2.

[0042] As Figure 8As shown, the lower part of the valve shaft 6 extends into the lower shaft hole of the valve body 4 and is arranged in the first bushing 2, and the length of the guiding groove 6-2 is greater than the length of the first bushing 2. As Figure 1 shown, in practice, the lower end of the first bushing 2 is limited and fixed by the bottom flange 1 fixed on the valve body 4. A second keyway 6-1 is arranged on the valve shaft 6, and a flat key 5-7 is arranged in the second keyway 6-1. The flat key 5-7 is matched with the first keyway 5-11 arranged on the valve plate 5-2 to prevent circumferential rotation between them, so as to achieve the effect of transmitting the action torque. At the same time, a limit bolt 5-8 is arranged for positioning to prevent axial end play between the valve plate 5-2 and the valve shaft 6, and the disc washer 5-9 plays a role in preventing the limit bolt 5-8 from loosening. The sealing ring 5-5 adopts a multi-layer type and can ensure a certain elasticity even at low temperatures.

[0043] As Figure 3 , 4 shown, the valve seat assembly 3 includes a split valve seat 3-1 and a pressing ring 3-2 sleeved on the circumferential surface of the split valve seat 3-1. A plurality of internal threaded holes are evenly arranged on the circumferential surface of the pressing ring 3-2. Each internal threaded hole is threadedly connected with a first set screw 3-4 and a second set screw 3-6. A first disc washer 3-5 is arranged between the first set screw 3-4 and the second set screw 3-6. The outer end of the second set screw 3-6 abuts against the flange surface of the split valve seat 3-1. A first wire retaining ring 3-3 is arranged in cooperation with the axial outer end groove of the pressing ring 3-2. The radial outer part of the first wire retaining ring 3-3 is arranged in the groove of the inner hole of the valve seat mounting boss 4-1. That is, a part of the first wire retaining ring 3-3 is installed in the groove of the valve body 4, and a part is installed in the pressing ring 3-2 to achieve the axial positioning effect of the valve seat assembly 3.

[0044] The split valve seat 3-1 and the valve seat mounting boss 4-1 are hermetically matched through a first spiral wound gasket 8. The first spiral wound gasket 8 is arranged in the groove at one end of the split valve seat 3-1. By adjusting the second set screw 3-6 and the first set screw 3-4, the pressing force on the first spiral wound gasket 8 can be adjusted to achieve reliable sealing.

[0045] The valve seat assembly 3 and the valve body 4 adopt a detachable structure and can be maintained during use; during the production process, production can be effectively facilitated. The middle part of the valve body 4 is provided with an upper cavity with a circular or oval structure, which can be used as the installation channel and maintenance channel for the valve seat assembly 3, the valve shaft 6 and the valve plate assembly 5.

[0046] The inner hole of the top cover 21 is provided with a second bushing 19. The second bushing 19 is hermetically fitted with the valve shaft 6 and the top cover 21 respectively through balance sealing rings 14. The two balance sealing rings 14 achieve double redundant sealing to meet the micro-leakage requirement. A packing assembly 18 is arranged above the second bushing 19, and the packing assembly 18 is axially limited by a packing pressing plate 15. In practice, the packing assembly 18 uses graphite packing, which can have a fireproof function.

[0047] As Figure 7 shown, the packing pressing plate 15 is connected to the upper flange surface of the top cover 21 through connecting bolts. The connecting bolts penetrate through the packing pressing plate 15, and a limiting sleeve 16 is sleeved on the bolt body of the connecting bolt extending to the outside of the packing pressing plate 15. A disc spring 17 is arranged in the inner cavity of the limiting sleeve 16. The upper end of the disc spring 17 abuts against the inner cavity top plate of the limiting sleeve 16, and the lower end of the disc spring 17 presses against the packing pressing plate 15. The limiting sleeve 16 is limited and fixed on the connecting bolt through a nut. The pressing and fixing of the packing assembly 18 are realized. The deformation of the disc spring 17 is determined by the limiting sleeve, and the pressing force generated by its deformation continuously acts on the packing assembly. Therefore, the magnitude of the pressing force can be adjusted through the limiting sleeve 16 and can be adjusted according to actual needs to realize the live load of the packing assembly. This structure is flexible and effective.

[0048] The bottom cover 25 and the top cover 21 are mutually matched through a stepped surface and are circumferentially limited by a first anti-rotation pin 11. The top cover 21 and the bottom cover 25 are fixedly connected through a first bolt 22 and corresponding nuts; the bottom cover 25 and the valve body 4 are mutually matched through a stepped surface and are circumferentially limited by a second anti-rotation pin 26. The bottom cover 25 and the valve body 4 are fixedly connected through a second bolt 24 and corresponding nuts.

[0049] An isolation drip tray 20 is welded on the outer surface of the top cover 21.

[0050] The inner hole of the bottom cover 25 is provided with a third bushing 27. The upper end of the third bushing 27 is axially positioned by a second wire retaining ring 23 for fixing the installation of the valve shaft 6 and guiding the valve movement.

[0051] A second spiral wound gasket 9 is arranged between the bottom cover 25 and the valve body 4, and a third spiral wound gasket 10 is arranged between the bottom cover 25 and the top cover 21.

[0052] The inner hole of the top cover 21 is provided with a bearing seat 13, and the valve shaft 6 is supported on the bearing seat 13 through a bearing ring 12.

[0053] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: When the valve is opened, the valve shaft 6 drives the valve plate assembly 5 to rotate counterclockwise and gradually opens to 90° fully open. During this process, as the rotation angle changes, the flow area of the channel formed between the valve plate assembly 5 and the valve body 4 for the medium in the valve cavity changes, and thus the medium flow rate changes accordingly, thereby achieving the function of cutting off or regulating the medium. When the valve is closed, under the action of the actuator, the valve shaft 6 overcomes the medium pressure and the friction between the valve shaft and the packing assembly, drives the valve plate assembly 5 to rotate clockwise until the valve is completely closed, and the valve plate sealing surface is in close contact with the valve seat sealing surface to achieve the sealing effect.

[0054] When on-line maintenance is required, the actuator should be removed first, and then the packing assembly 18, the first stud 22 and the corresponding nuts should be loosened, and relevant components such as the top cover 21 should be removed; then the second stud 24 and the corresponding nuts should be loosened, and the bottom cover 21 and relevant components should be removed; the key step is to partially loosen the limit bolt 5-8, move it out of the positioning hole 6-3, pull out the valve shaft 6 to the bottom to separate it from the valve body 4, and then tighten the limit bolt 5-8, and the valve shaft 6 can be pulled out together with the valve plate assembly 5 from the upper cavity of the valve body. When the valve seat assembly 3 needs to be disassembled, the first set screw 3-4 should be partially loosened first, and the circlip should be taken out, and then the valve seat assembly can be disassembled. The disassembly process is simple and easy to operate. The precautions for reassembly after maintenance are basically the same as the disassembly process, and the installation steps are opposite to the disassembly process.

[0055] The present invention has the advantages of high on-line maintenance efficiency, good sealing performance, high dynamic stability, not easy to jam, long service life, etc. Its excellent comprehensive performance ensures that it can meet the requirements of cutting off or regulating the medium at low temperature (-196°C).

[0056] Obviously, the above embodiments are only examples for clear illustration and not limitations on the implementation manners. For those of ordinary skill in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all the implementation manners here, and the obvious changes or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of the present invention.
