[0008] Optionally, the inflation sealing mechanism comprises a rubber inflation ring arranged at the side end of the concave push ring, a communication pipe fixedly connected in the concave push ring and communicated with the rubber inflation ring, a communication groove arranged in the valve body and the fixed valve seat, the side end of the communication pipe fixedly connected to the fixed valve seat communicated with the communication groove, an air chamber arranged in the valve body communicated with the communication groove, a second sliding plate slidingly connected in the air chamber, a piston fixedly connected to the side end of the second sliding plate, a second connecting rod fixedly connected to the other end of the second sliding plate, a fifth groove arranged in the valve body, the second connecting rod outwardly and movably penetrating into the fifth groove, an arc-shaped extrusion plate fixedly connected to the side end of the second connecting rod, a valve rod downwardly and movably penetrating into the fifth groove, a rhombic extrusion block fixedly connected to the surface of the valve rod, the surface of the rhombic extrusion block in contact with the surface of the arc-shaped extrusion plate, a second spring fixedly connected to the side end of the arc-shaped extrusion plate, and the side end of the second spring fixedly connected in the fifth groove, the second spring sleeved on the circumferential surface of the second connecting rod.

[0009] Optionally, the extrusion mechanism comprises a connecting plate fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of the valve rod, a fourth groove arranged in the connecting plate, two trapezoidal extrusion blocks slidingly connected in the fourth groove, the two trapezoidal extrusion blocks fixedly connected to the end portions close to each other of the two valve plates respectively, a third groove arranged in the connecting plate communicated with the fourth groove, an extrusion plate slidingly connected in the third groove, a drive screw rotatably connected in the third groove, the extrusion plate threadedly connected to the circumferential surface of the drive screw, the inclined surfaces of the two trapezoidal extrusion blocks in contact with the extrusion plate, and the end portions close to each other of the two trapezoidal extrusion blocks each arranged with a containing groove, and a tension spring fixedly connected in the two containing grooves.

[0012] Optionally, the top end of the circumferential surface of the valve rod is fixedly connected with a hand wheel.

[0013] A gate valve control method of a gate valve, comprising the following steps:

[0014] S1. When the valve needs to be closed, the valve stem is rotated by turning the handwheel. The rotation of the valve stem causes the connecting plate to rotate, which in turn causes the two valve plates to rotate and close. The rotation of the valve stem causes the drive gear to rotate in a circular motion. When the drive gear rotates in a circular motion, it meshes with the gear ring. The gear ring drives the drive gear to rotate, which in turn drives the driven gear and the drive screw to rotate. The drive screw rotates and causes the extrusion plate to move downward. When the extrusion plate moves downward, it enters the fourth groove. The extrusion plate extrudes the inclined surfaces of the two trapezoidal extrusion blocks. The two trapezoidal extrusion blocks move in opposite directions. The movement of the trapezoidal extrusion blocks in opposite directions stretches the tension spring. The two trapezoidal extrusion blocks drive the two valve plates to move outward and press against the two concave push rings respectively. With the elasticity of the first spring, the concave push rings and valve plates are pushed to fit tightly together to improve the sealing of the pipeline.

[0015] S2. When opening the valve, turn the handwheel 90°. When the handwheel is turned, the valve stem rotates. The valve stem rotates, which in turn rotates the connecting plate. The connecting plate rotates, which in turn rotates the two valve plates to close. The valve stem rotates, which in turn rotates the drive gear. When the drive gear rotates, it meshes with the gear ring. The gear ring drives the drive gear to rotate. The drive gear rotates, which in turn rotates the driven gear and the drive screw. The drive screw rotates again, which causes the extrusion plate to return downwards to the third groove.

[0016] S3. When closing the valve, the valve stem is rotated by turning the handwheel. At the same time, the valve stem rotates and drives the diamond-shaped extrusion block to rotate. The rotation of the diamond-shaped extrusion block will squeeze the arc-shaped extrusion plate through its two longer ends. The two arc-shaped extrusion plates move in opposite directions. The extrusion of the arc-shaped extrusion plates drives the second connecting rod to move inward. The second connecting rod drives the second slide plate and piston to squeeze the air in the air chamber. The air in the air chamber enters the rubber inflation ring through the connecting groove and connecting pipe, inflating the rubber inflation ring. The rubber inflation ring is inflated to fill the gap between the concave push ring and the valve plate, increasing the valve's sealing performance.

[0017] S4. When the valve is opened, the compression at the longer ends of the two diamond-shaped extrusion blocks is lost. The arc-shaped extrusion plate is pushed back to its original position by the elasticity of the second spring. The arc-shaped extrusion plate drives the second slide plate and piston to move in the air chamber through the second connecting rod. The piston draws air from the rubber inflation ring through the connecting groove and connecting pipe.

[0018] The embodiments of the present invention have the following beneficial effects:

[0019] The two valve plates are matched with the two concave push rings by the extrusion mechanism, the sealing property of the valve plate is improved, the water outlet is avoided after the valve is sealed, the gear driving mechanism is driven by the valve rod to move when the valve is closed, the extrusion mechanism is driven by the gear driving mechanism to match the valve plate and the concave push ring, the valve plate and the concave push ring are matched synchronously when the valve is closed, use is facilitated, the inflation sealing mechanism is driven by the valve rod to move when the valve is closed, and the sealing property of the valve is further improved.

[0020] Of course, implementing any product of the application does not necessarily require all the advantages described above. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
