AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

During the frequent opening and closing of the triple-eccentric butterfly valve, the wear between the valve plate and the valve seat causes the gap to increase, resulting in fluid leakage.

Method used

An air bladder and conduit system is installed on the valve plate so that the sealing ring of the air bladder, which expands under fluid pressure, comes into close contact with the valve seat. Air from the air bladder is forced into the sealing ring through the conduit to enhance the sealing performance and seal the gap when wear increases the gap.

Benefits of technology

This improves the sealing performance between the valve plate and the valve seat, reduces fluid leakage, and ensures long-term sealing between the valve plate and the valve seat.
