Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of butterfly valves, in particular to a flange butterfly valve with a sealing component. Background Art
[0002] A butterfly valve, also known as a flap valve, is a regulating valve with a simple structure. It can be used for switching control of low-pressure pipeline media. A butterfly valve refers to a valve in which the closing member (valve disc or butterfly plate) is a disc that rotates around the valve axis to achieve opening and closing.
[0003] Valves can be used to control the flow of various types of fluids such as air, water, steam, various corrosive media, mud, oil, liquid metal and radioactive media. They mainly play the role of cutting off and throttling in pipelines. The butterfly valve opening and closing part is a disc-shaped butterfly plate that rotates around its own axis in the valve body to achieve the purpose of opening, closing or regulating.
[0004] Since butterfly valves are usually used to cut off or throttle various types of fluids such as water, various corrosive media, mud, oil, liquid metal, etc. in pipelines, sealing performance is particularly important. Existing butterfly valves have poor sealing performance and are easily corroded after long-term use. Summary of the invention

[0014] Optionally, the soft seal is made of polytetrafluoroethylene.
[0015] Optionally, outer edges of the soft seal and the hard seal are both in contact with the inner wall of the valve body.
[0016] The present invention provides a flange butterfly valve with a sealing assembly, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0017] The flange butterfly valve with sealing assembly is mainly composed of a valve body, a butterfly plate, a valve stem and a sealing assembly, etc. It has the advantages of bidirectional pressure bearing and hard sealing, and is suitable for various corrosive media and high-pressure pipelines. It not only has a simple structure, small size, light weight, low material consumption, small installation size, small driving torque, simple and quick operation, but also has good flow regulation function and closing sealing characteristics;
[0018] The structure of D343H bidirectional hard seal butterfly valve is mainly composed of valve body, butterfly plate, valve stem, sealing assembly, etc. Among them, the valve body is the main structure of the whole valve, and there is a channel connected to the pipeline inside. The butterfly plate is the opening and closing part of the valve, which can move in the valve body channel to realize the opening and closing of the valve. The valve stem is a component connecting the butterfly plate and the drive device. The opening and closing of the butterfly plate can be controlled by rotating the valve stem. The sealing assembly is a key component to ensure the sealing performance of the valve, including soft seal and hard seal. The soft seal is made of rubber or polytetrafluoroethylene. Polytetrafluoroethylene has strong corrosion resistance, stable performance, not easy to age, low friction coefficient, easy to form, stable size, and can be improved by filling and adding appropriate materials.

[0030] In this embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, flanges are provided on both sides of the valve body 10 , and the flanges are symmetrically distributed about the center line of the valve body 10 .
[0031] In this embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the tail cover 1, the valve body 10 and the bracket 8 are coaxial.

[0033] In this embodiment, Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a butterfly plate 11 is provided in the middle of the valve stem 5, and the valve stem 5 and the butterfly plate 11 are connected by a hexagon socket bolt B4; the butterfly plate 11 is the opening and closing part of the valve, and can move in the channel of the valve body 10 to realize the opening and closing of the valve.
[0034] In this embodiment, Figure 4 As shown, the butterfly plate 11 forms a rotating structure through the valve stem 5; the valve stem 5 is a component connecting the butterfly plate 11 and the driving device, and the opening and closing of the butterfly plate 11 can be controlled by rotating the valve stem 5.
[0035] In this embodiment, Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a sealing component is provided on the outer edge of the butterfly plate 11. The sealing component is composed of a soft seal and a hard seal. The soft seal is located on one side of the hard seal.
[0036] In this embodiment, the soft seal is made of polytetrafluoroethylene; the soft seal is made of rubber or polytetrafluoroethylene, polytetrafluoroethylene has strong corrosion resistance, stable performance, not easy to age, low friction coefficient, easy to form, stable size, and can be filled and added with appropriate materials to improve its comprehensive performance to obtain a butterfly valve sealing material with better strength and lower friction coefficient, thereby further improving the performance of the butterfly valve;

[0038] The use method of the present invention: When the flange butterfly valve with a sealing component is used, the working process is as follows:
[0039] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, first, when the valve is opened, the medium flows from the pipeline into the channel of the valve body 10, pushing the butterfly plate 11 to move to one side. During the movement of the butterfly plate 11, the soft sealing surface of the sealing component contacts the valve seat to form the first seal; at the same time, the other side of the hard sealing surface contacts the valve seat to form the second seal, so that the medium is completely sealed in the valve seat under pressure. When the valve is closed, the medium pressure gradually increases, and the stress on the hard sealing surface also increases. When the stress reaches a certain value, the stress on the hard sealing surface is transferred to the soft sealing surface, causing the stress on the soft sealing surface to increase. When the stress on the soft sealing surface increases to exceed its yield limit, the soft sealing surface deforms and fits with the valve seat to form the first seal; at the same time, the hard sealing surface contacts the valve seat to form the second seal, so that the medium is completely blocked outside the valve.
