The butterfly valve uses the closing part (valve disc or butterfly plate) as a disc and realizes opening and closing by rotating around the valve axis.
[0003] As we all know, butterfly valves are mostly in dusty and high-temperature working environments. Small debris such as dust or impurities generated during the relative operation of the butterfly valve can easily enter the gap between the valve stem and the valve body or enter the cavity and come into direct contact with the medium. Pollutants can easily enter the valve body channel and pollute the high-cleanliness environment.

The contact surface between the valve body and the sealing ring in the present invention is an oblique cone surface, and the contact angle between the sealing ring and the valve seat can produce a slight "wedge effect", which makes the sealing ring move softly and expand radially, so that the load loaded on the valve body is uniform, thereby achieving the tightest shutoff with the minimum torque. The elasticity generated by the torque can make the valve tightly shut off, regardless of the flow direction or pressure of the medium, and can ensure that the valve body achieves a zero-leakage sealing effect.

The contact angle between the sealing ring 14 and the valve body 1 can produce a slight "wedge effect", causing the sealing ring 14 to move softly and expand radially. Due to the uniform contact between the valve body 1 and the sealing ring 14 and the flexibility of the sealing ring 14, the load loaded on the valve body 1 is uniform, thereby achieving the tightest shutoff with the minimum torque. The elasticity generated by the torque enables the valve to be tightly shutoff, regardless of the flow direction or pressure of the medium.

[0044] In the present invention, a sealing surface 201 is connected to the periphery of the sealing ring 14, and the sealing surface 201 and the sealing ring 14 are integrally welded. The sealing surface 201 is made of STL6 hard alloy, and the sealing surface 201 is wear-resistant and has a long service life. A winding gasket 21 is provided between the sealing ring 14 and the valve body 1, and the winding gasket 21 and the sealing ring 14 are fixedly connected to each other.

The dust storage groove B20 is used to store excess sealing material squeezed out after the winding gasket 21 is deformed.
[0045] A packing assembly is provided between the valve stem 6 and the valve body 1 in the present invention, and the packing assembly includes a pressure plate 22, a pressure sleeve 23 and a packing 24. The pressure sleeve 23 is sleeved on the valve stem 6, and the pressure plate 22 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the pressure sleeve 23. A sleeve support ring 25 for supporting the first sleeve 16 is provided at the lower end of the pressure sleeve 23.

[0046] The valve stem 6 and the electric actuator 18 in the present invention are connected to each other through a key A7, and the valve stem 6 and the connecting sleeve 10 of the butterfly plate 2 are connected to each other through a key B11. The valve stem 6 can be rotated under the drive of the externally arranged electric actuator 18, thereby realizing the rotation of the butterfly plate 2 through the valve stem 6. The present invention has a simple structure and is mainly composed of a few parts such as the valve body 1, the butterfly plate 2, and the valve stem 6, which saves material consumption; it has a small size, light weight, small installation size, small driving torque, simple and quick operation, and only needs to rotate 90° to achieve rapid opening and closing. The present invention adopts a triple eccentric structure, which adds a third eccentricity on the basis of the double eccentricity, that is, the angle between the center line of the valve seat cone angle and the center line of the pipeline, so that the butterfly plate 2 and the sealing ring 14 can be completely separated during the entire switching process of the valve. This structure not only utilizes the cam effect, but also completely eliminates friction and removes wear.
[0047] Working principle: The valve stem 6 in the present invention can be rotated under the drive of the external electric actuator 18, thereby driving the rotation of the butterfly plate 2 through the valve stem 6, changing the channel area of the fluid passing through the valve, and achieving the purpose of flow control. Its nominal diameter is DN600, nominal pressure: PN2.5, valve opening torque is 417N.M, valve closing torque is 2023N.M, the inner surface of the valve body, valve stem, and butterfly plate are all electrochemically polished, and the surface finish is not less than Rmax0.8μm, and Ra is less than 0.2μm; the butterfly valve sealing pair disclosed in the present invention adopts a triple eccentric structure, which adds a third on the basis of the double eccentric Eccentricity, or the angle between the centerline of the valve seat cone and the centerline of the pipeline, allows the sealing surface 201 of the butterfly plate 2 to completely disengage from the sealing ring 14 throughout the valve's opening and closing process. This structure utilizes the cam effect while completely eliminating friction and wear. The contact surface between the sealing ring 14 and the valve body 1 is an oblique cone, and the contact angle between the sealing ring 14 and the valve seat creates a slight "wedge effect," causing the sealing ring 14 to move softly and expand radially. The uniform contact between the valve seat and the sealing ring 14, as well as the flexibility of the sealing ring 14, results in a uniform load on the valve seat, achieving the tightest shutoff with minimal torque. The elasticity generated by the torque ensures a tight shutoff, regardless of the flow direction or pressure of the medium, ensuring a two-way zero-leakage seal in the valve seat.
