Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of packing wear testing, and in particular to a liftable and replaceable valve packing wear testing device. Background Art

[0002] As a traditional valve stem seal, the packing seal is one of the most commonly used sealing methods due to its low cost and excellent sealing performance. To prevent environmental pollution, resource waste, and safety accidents caused by leakage, the seal structure must have excellent sealing performance and long-term stability. Therefore, packing friction and wear testing is particularly important. A well-developed packing wear test device can provide an important basis for the research and development and improvement of packing seals.

[0003] Most existing packing wear test benches are horizontal in design, which causes the packing to be partially affected by the gravity of the valve stem, which is inconsistent with actual working conditions, and the wear failure mode also deviates from the actual situation. When evaluating packings of different structures and materials, the packing needs to be frequently disassembled and reinstalled, which is a cumbersome and time-consuming process. When replacing the packing, it is often necessary to disassemble a large number of valve components, and when reassembling, the key structures must be precisely adjusted to ensure the sealing performance, which greatly increases the workload and time cost. In addition, many test devices can only simulate wear under specific conditions and fail to fully reflect the complexity of actual working conditions. Therefore, developing a new test device to more realistically simulate the wear process of the packing under actual working conditions is of great significance to improving the efficiency and accuracy of the test.

[0053] The present invention provides a liftable and replaceable valve packing wear test device. This device is a vertical liftable device that facilitates packing replacement and is used for testing valve wear and life. It relates to packing wear performance testing equipment. The device primarily comprises a support device, a valve, a drive device, a lift device, a wear test device, and a hydraulic station system. The valve comprises a valve body 24 and a valve stem 46 connected within the valve body 24. A packing 49 is sealed between the upper portion of the valve body 24 and the valve stem 46. The support device comprises a frame 1. An actuator 9 is mounted above the frame 1. The lower portion of the actuator 9 is connected to a third connecting flange 14, which is removably and coaxially connected to the upper portion of the valve body 24 via bolts 17. The lift device is connected to the valve body 24, enabling the entire valve body 24 to move up and down through its lift function. This greatly simplifies the assembly and disassembly steps for the valve packing during testing. This design significantly improves testing efficiency and reduces operational difficulty. The wear test device, comprising the actuator 9, is the primary experimental component used to conduct in-depth research on valve wear and expected service life. This wear test device can provide accurate data for evaluating valve performance and durability. The hydraulic station system is used to drive the actuator 9 and simulate the actual working conditions of the valve pipeline, providing the necessary conditions for research and testing of valve wear and life. By precisely controlling the movement of the actuator 9, the system can simulate various working conditions of the valve in actual use.

[0054] like Figure 1 The test device of the present invention mainly includes a frame 1, a first ferrule flange 2, a first connecting flange 3, a second stud 4, two first lifting plates 5, a Hirschmann pressure gauge 6, a first L-shaped plate 7, a first limit plate 8, an actuator 9, a first fixing bracket 10, a second fixing bracket 12, a rotary encoder 11, an output shaft 13, a third connecting flange 14, a second limit plate 15, a second L-shaped plate 16, bolts 17, two second lifting plates 18, a second connecting flange 19, a second ferrule flange 20, two second screw rods 21, an L-shaped fixing plate 22, a first hydraulic station 23, a valve body to be tested 24, and a third connecting flange 14. A stud 25, two first screw rods 26, a second hydraulic station 27, a data acquisition card 28, an industrial computer 29, a motor 30, a first coupling 31, a first spiral bevel gear steering gear 32, a second coupling 33, a first connecting shaft 34, a third coupling 35, a second spiral bevel gear steering gear 36, a fourth coupling 37, a second coupling 38, a fourth coupling 39, two first screw rod boxes 40, a sixth coupling 41, a third connecting shaft 42, a seventh coupling 43, two second screw rod boxes 44, a nut 45, a valve stem 46, a third stud 47, a packing gland 48, a packing 49, etc.

[0055] The specific embodiment is as follows: The first and second connecting flanges 3 and 19 are placed on an L-shaped fixing plate 22, which is mounted on the frame 1. The valve body 24 to be tested is fixedly connected to the first and second connecting flanges 3 and 19 using first studs 25. Each of the first and second connecting flanges 3 and 19 is equipped with four pressure sensing ports, and eight Hirschmann pressure gauges 6 are mounted on these ports to monitor the system's pressure in real time. When the pressure values ​​displayed by these Hirschmann pressure gauges 6 remain stable with minimal fluctuation, the valve is considered to have reached the desired operating state. The first and second lifting plates 5 and 18 are fixedly connected to the first and second connecting flanges 3 and 19, respectively, to support and move the valve body 24, enabling it to be raised and lowered. The first and second connecting flanges 3 and 19 are connected to the first and second ferrule flanges 2 and 20, respectively, via second studs 4. The first and second connecting flanges 3 and 19 are connected to two hydraulic pipelines of the first hydraulic station 23, while the first and second ferrule flanges 2 and 20 are connected to two hydraulic pipelines of the first hydraulic station 23, respectively. The first screw rod 26 and the second screw rod 21 are respectively connected to the first lifting plate 5 and the second lifting plate 18 by bolts, and the first lifting plate 5 and the second lifting plate 18 are fixed to the first connecting flange 3 and the second connecting flange 19 to drive the valve body 24 to move vertically up and down, and move the valve body 24 to be tested upward to the test position.

[0056] The position of the actuator 9 is controlled by the first and second limit plates 8 and 15, arranged front and rear on the left and right sides, which limit forward and backward movement. The first and second L-shaped plates 7 and 16, respectively, limit left and right movement. The second L-shaped plate 16 has slots to adjust the left-right distance. The first and second L-shaped plates 7 and 16 are connected to the left and right sides of the actuator 9. The first limit plate 8 is arranged on the left front and back sides of the actuator 9, and the second limit plate 15 is arranged on the right front and back sides of the actuator 9. The first fixing bracket 10 is fixed to the actuator 9 with bolts, while the second fixing bracket 12 is connected to the rotary encoder 11. The first and second fixing brackets 10 and 12 are fixedly connected, stably mounting the rotary encoder 11 on the actuator 9. The rotary encoder 11 is connected to the output shaft 13 of the actuator 9 via a snap-fit ​​connection. The output shaft 13 drives the rotary encoder 11 to rotate coaxially. The valve angle data is transmitted to the industrial computer 29 via the data acquisition card 28 for precise monitoring. The two ends of the actuator 9 are respectively connected to the hydraulic station pipeline of the second hydraulic station 27, and the actuator 9 can be rotated by 0-30°, 0-60° or 0-90° through the parameter setting of the second hydraulic station 27. The actuator 9 drives the actuator output shaft 13 to rotate, thereby simulating the opening and closing process of the valve in the actual process and simulating the actual opening and closing action of the valve. At the same time, the second hydraulic station 27 can adjust the rotation speed of the actuator 9 to adapt to the test requirements of different working conditions, thereby improving the experimental efficiency. The rotary encoder 11 rotates coaxially with the actuator output shaft 13. Through the feedback of the rotary encoder 11, the number of times the valve is opened and closed can be counted in real time. The data of the rotary encoder 11 and the Hirschmann pressure gauge 6 will be collected and transmitted to the data acquisition card 28, and the data acquisition card 28 will then integrate the data and transmit it to the industrial computer 29, thereby realizing accurate data acquisition and control.

[0057] The first hydraulic station 23 is connected to the first and second ferrule flanges 2 and 20 via hydraulic piping. It is responsible for delivering a pressured medium to the valve and uses a Hirschmann pressure gauge 6 to monitor the fluid pressure in the hydraulic piping in real time to ensure accurate pressure control. The second hydraulic station 27 is connected to both ends of the actuator 9 via hydraulic station piping, achieving precise control of the actuator through hydraulic drive.

[0058] like Figure 2The figure shows the assembly diagram of the drive unit and lifting device. The drive unit and lifting device include a motor 30 mounted on the frame 1, a first coupling 31, a second coupling 33, a third coupling 35, a fourth coupling 37, a fourth coupling 39, a sixth coupling 41, a seventh coupling 43, a first spiral bevel gear steering gear 32, a second spiral bevel gear steering gear 36, a first connecting shaft 34, a second coupling 38, a third connecting shaft 42, two first screw boxes 40, and two second screw boxes 44. The second coupling 33, first connecting shaft 34, third coupling 35, second spiral bevel gear steering gear 36, fourth coupling 37, second coupling 38, fourth coupling 39, sixth coupling 41, third coupling 42, and seventh coupling 43 constitute the transmission mechanism, which consists of two sets. The two first screw boxes 40 and two second screw boxes 44 are arranged at the four corners.

[0059] The motor 30 is connected to the first spiral bevel gear steering gear 32 via a first coupling 31. The first coupling 31 is designed with two keyways, one end of which is connected to the motor shaft; the other end cooperates with the main shaft of the first spiral bevel gear steering gear 32 to achieve a 90-degree shift in power direction. The second coupling 33 of each transmission mechanism is connected to the first spiral bevel gear steering gear 32. The side shafts on both sides of the first spiral bevel gear steering gear 32 are connected to the main shaft of the second spiral bevel gear steering gear 36 via the second coupling 33, the first connecting shaft 34, and the third coupling 35, respectively, again achieving a 90-degree shift in power direction. The side shafts of the second spiral bevel gear steering gear 36 on both sides are connected to the first screw box 40 via the fourth coupling 37, the second connecting shaft 38, and the fourth coupling 39, respectively, transmitting power to the first screw box 40. The first screw box 40 on both sides transmits power to the second screw box 44 via the sixth coupling 41, the third connecting shaft 42, and the seventh coupling 43, respectively. The two first screw boxes 40 and the two second screw boxes 44 are connected to the two first screw rods 26 and the two second screw rods 21 respectively, converting the rotational motion into the linear motion of the screw rods to achieve the lifting function. All components in the lifting device are fixed to the frame 1 by bolts.

[0060] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 The figure shows the packing replacement process. When replacing the packing, it is necessary to first loosen the bolts 17 connecting the third connecting flange 14 and the valve body 24. At this time, the third connecting flange 14 is still connected to the actuator 9, and the motor 30 drives the four screw rods to descend synchronously, driving the entire valve body to move downward to a suitable height for convenient packing replacement. Figure 4The schematic diagram of the packing installation is specifically shown. The third stud 47 and the packing gland 48 jointly apply a pre-tightening force to the packing 49 to ensure the sealing of the valve 24. When replacing the packing, it is only necessary to remove the nut 45 and the packing gland 48, and then use special tools to remove the packing after the wear test to measure key data such as the packing surface roughness and wear depth. After replacing the new packing, since other components remain in their original assembly state, only the nut 45 and the packing gland 48 need to be reinstalled to quickly complete the reassembly of the valve body. This design significantly improves the efficiency of packing replacement, saves experimental time, and thus improves the convenience and economy of the overall testing process.

[0061] The screw lift of the present invention obtains motor power through a coupling and a spiral bevel gear steering gear. The overall lifting function of the valve body can be used by simply loosening the bolts of the connecting flange at the packing, thereby avoiding the tedious steps of reassembly after replacing the packing and simplifying the operation process. Wear testing device: A hydraulically controlled actuator is used, and the actuator is connected to the valve stem to simulate the closing action of the valve, thereby accelerating the wear of the packing during actual use for testing. The first hydraulic station is connected to the first and second connecting flange pipelines through the hydraulic station pipeline to simulate actual working conditions; the second hydraulic station is connected to the actuator to control the movement of the actuator. The present invention controls the opening and closing of the valve through the actuator, and the rotary encoder continuously measures the valve angle and rotation speed, which can be used to optimize the packing wear and life experiment.

[0062] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
