Description

They can control the flow or stop of media (liquids, gases, powders) in pipes and equipment and can control the flow rate. Valves can be used to control the flow of air, water, steam, various corrosive media, mud, oil products, liquid metals, and radioactive media. Valves need to be turned during production. Turning is a method of cutting workpieces on a lathe by rotating the workpiece relative to the tool. Turning is the most basic and common cutting method and plays a very important role in production. Turning is suitable for machining rotary surfaces, and most workpieces with rotary surfaces can be machined by turning, such as internal and external cylindrical surfaces, internal and external conical surfaces, end surfaces, grooves, threads, and rotary formed surfaces, etc. The main tool used is a turning tool.

The blind hole is vertically arranged and cylindrical. A third spring is provided in the blind hole. The top of the third spring is fixedly connected to the top of the blind hole, and the lower end is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the ball. The part of the ball that protrudes from the blind hole is smaller than the radius of the ball. The upper surface of the second disk is circumferentially embedded with an arc-shaped groove that engages with the ball bearing.

7. A turning apparatus for valve production according to claim 1, characterized in that: The limiting mechanism includes a blind hole that is annularly embedded in the bottom surface of the first disc. The blind hole is vertically arranged and is rectangular in shape. A vertical third spring is provided inside the blind hole. The top of the third spring is fixedly connected to the top of the blind hole, and the lower end is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the insert block. The insert block is rectangular in shape, and the exposed part at the bottom is a pointed shape with a missing right corner. The upper surface of the second disk is circumferentially embedded with a wedge-shaped groove that mates with the pointed end.

8. A turning method for a valve manufacturing turning apparatus according to any one of claims 1-7, characterized in that: Includes the following steps: S1. Fix several valves to be machined in the valve clamping assembly, with the upper end of the valve protruding from the valve clamping assembly; S2. Start the turning machine, and the cutting tool is in a rotating state; S3. Control the electric hydraulic cylinder to extend the cylinder rod, push the valve clamping assembly to move outward and engage with the drive mechanism, and continue to push forward to squeeze the switch, which will drive the motor to drive the valve to rotate. Continue to push forward until the valve contacts the cutting tool, and the turning is completed when it reaches the limit block; S4. Control the electric hydraulic cylinder to retract the cylinder rod to the initial position, and the valve clamping assembly and drive mechanism are reset under the action of the tension spring and the first spring, respectively; S5. Manually rotate the first disc counterclockwise, and under the action of the limit mechanism, the first disc enters the next clamping position, and the cylinder rod of the electric hydraulic cylinder aligns with the next valve. In this way, the turning of multiple valves is completed in sequence.
