[0002] Pneumatic control valves have the advantages of fast response speed and easy access to clean compressed air. They have been widely used in industrial systems and occupy an increasingly important position in industrial production. At present, as one of the important equipment in nuclear power plants, pneumatic control valves have been widely used in nuclear island and conventional island related systems of nuclear power plants that have been built and are under construction. Positioners are the control core of the adjustment quality of pneumatic control valves, and their working environment is an important factor in determining the life of positioners. At present, nuclear power plants generally have the problem of relatively high failure rates of positioners in process pipelines with high temperatures and working environments. The more commonly used method is to change to a split positioner installation method, keep the mainboard and sealing components away from high-temperature environments, improve the working environment of the positioner, and extend its service life. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0024] In order to further understand the present invention, the embodiments of the present invention are described below in conjunction with examples, but it should be understood that these descriptions are only for further illustrating the features and advantages of the present invention, rather than limiting the present invention.
[0025] The embodiment of the present invention discloses a pneumatic control device for a high-temperature pipeline of industrial steam supply in a nuclear power plant, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a pneumatic valve and a heat insulation component arranged at different positions of the pneumatic valve,
[0026] The main valve body 6 and the cylinder 1 in the pneumatic valve are connected through the cylinder bracket 2, and the valve stem 7 is connected through the coupling 12. The upper end of the valve stem 7 is connected to the cylinder 1, and the other end is connected to the main valve body 6. The positioner 11 is installed on the cylinder bracket 2 through the positioner bracket 9. The positioner 11 controls the air intake and exhaust of the cylinder, thereby realizing the function of valve switching.
[0027] The two main ways of heat transfer are heat radiation and heat conduction. Heat is conducted to the positioner 11 through the air and the positioner mounting bracket 9, causing the temperature of the positioner 11 to rise. In order to effectively prevent the effects of heat radiation and heat conduction, different insulation components are installed to reduce the impact of temperature on the positioner 11.
[0028] A first heat insulation component 4 is installed at the bottom of the cylinder support 2 of the pneumatic valve 6, and the upper and lower sides of the first heat insulation component 4 are fixed by the second heat insulation component 3 and the third heat insulation component 5 respectively;
[0029] The third thermal insulation component 5 is a mounting bracket with a certain rigidity. Four of them are evenly installed in four directions at the bottom of the cylinder bracket 2 and are fixed to the cylinder bracket 2 by bolts. Its main function is to support the first thermal insulation component 4 and the second thermal insulation component 3.
[0030] The first heat insulation component 4 is a square structure with the same size as the insulation upper plane of the main valve body 6, and is installed parallel to the insulation upper plane to establish an air space to optimize the insulation effect.
[0031] One of the functions of the second insulation component 3 is to fix the first insulation component 4, which is connected and fixed to the third insulation component 5 by bolts, so that the first insulation component 4 is not affected by vibration, external force, etc. and is not offset or fallen off; the second function is heat insulation. The outer cover is made of metal, and is filled with insulation boards and thermal insulation cotton inside to enhance the insulation effect.
[0032] A fourth thermal insulation component 14 is partially filled between the cylinder support 2 and the valve body pressure plate 13 of the pneumatic valve 6; the fourth thermal insulation component 14 is made of a thermal insulation plate in proportion to the circular space between the inner wall of the cylinder support 2 and the outer wall of the valve body pressure plate 13, and the thermal insulation component does not require additional fixation after installation. The installation of the fourth thermal insulation component 14 does not affect the movement of the valve stem and the steam leakage between the valve body pressure plate 13 and the valve stem 7 can be observed.
[0033] The fifth heat insulation assembly 8 is installed between the cylinder bracket 2 and the positioner mounting bracket 9.
[0034] Without affecting the action of the positioner feedback link, the size of the fifth thermal insulation component 8 is larger than the fitting surface of the positioner mounting bracket. In addition to reducing the heat conduction effect, it also has a certain heat radiation isolation function.
[0035] The sixth heat insulation assembly 10 is installed between the positioner mounting bracket 9 and the positioner 11 .
[0036] Under the premise of not affecting the action of the feedback valve stem 7 of the positioner 22, the size of the sixth thermal insulation component 10 is larger than the fitting surface of the positioner mounting bracket 9, thereby minimizing the heat conduction effect.
[0037] The above embodiments are only used to help understand the method and core idea of the present invention. It should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made to the present invention without departing from the principles of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
[0038] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables one skilled in the art to implement or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be apparent to one skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention will not be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but rather to the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
