The annular boss 901 is provided in conjunction with the plurality of annular grooves 902 for adding a sealing ring, so that the sealing ring can be squeezed into the plurality of annular grooves 902 when locking, which can greatly improve the sealing performance of the connection with other pipes and other components.

[0040] Specifically, in this embodiment: a limit strip 202 is integrally provided on the inner wall of the guide groove 201, a limit slot is provided on the gate plate 12, and the limit strip 202 slides into the limit slot to further limit the moving direction of the gate plate 12 and ensure stable sliding of the gate plate 12.

[0041] In summary, the soft-sealed gate valve with a driving mechanism provided in this embodiment has the following advantages: 1. Through the coordinated action of the soft sealing structure (annular thrust plate 1 402, annular thrust plate 2 403, annular thrust sealing pad 404, O-shaped rubber ring 405), rubber pad 11, rubber ring 2 503, rubber ring 3 502, the first self-sealing component (fixing ring 1501, annular rubber sealing airbag 15) and the second self-sealing component (T-shaped rubber sealing plug 705), the sealing of the valve is fully guaranteed to prevent water leakage.

[0042] 2. The hand wheel 6 is connected to the lead screw 10 through the connecting rod 4, and cooperates with the lead screw nut 13 to drive the gate 12. The operation is simple, and the coaxial arrangement of the connecting rod 4, the lead screw 10 and other components and the cooperation of the limit bar 202 and the limit groove ensure the stability of the transmission and the accuracy of the movement of the gate 12.

[0043] 3. The reinforcing ribs 101 between the valve body 1, the flange 9 and the valve seat 2 enhance the overall structural strength and extend the service life of the valve.

[0044] 4. The driving mechanism 7 (cylinder 701, plugging bolt 702, spring 703) can realize the replacement of the soft sealing structure without stopping the water supply, thereby improving the maintenance efficiency and reducing the inconvenience caused by water supply stopping.

[0045] 5. Good connection sealing: The annular boss 901 and the annular groove 902 on the flange 9 are convenient for connection with other pipes and can improve the sealing of the connection.

[0046] When in use: Opening and closing: The operator turns the hand wheel 6 to drive the connecting rod 4 to rotate, and then the lead screw 10 rotates. The lead screw nut 13 on the lead screw 10 is connected to the gate 12 through the connecting structure (the clamping seat 1201, the fixing plate 14), and the rotation of the lead screw nut 13 is converted into the linear motion of the gate 12 along the guide groove 201, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the channel in the valve body 1 and adjusting the water flow.

[0047] Sealing principle: The soft sealing structure prevents water leakage between the assembly groove 1 301, the assembly groove 2 302 and the connecting rod 4; the rubber pad 11 between the valve seat 2 and the valve bonnet 3, the rubber ring 2 503 between the gland 5 and the valve bonnet 3, and the rubber ring 3 502 on the inner ring surface of the gland 5 enhance the sealing of the joints of the components.

[0048] When the soft sealing structure needs to be replaced, the operator turns the handwheel 6 to drive the connecting rod 4 to rotate, and then the lead screw 10 is rotated. The rotation of the lead screw nut 13 is converted into a linear motion of the gate plate 12 along the guide groove 201, and the lead screw nut 13 drives the gate plate 12 to move toward the annular plane 303 until the annular rubber sealing airbag 15 is tightly pressed against the annular plane 303. At this time, the T-shaped rubber sealing plug 705 is driven by the spring 703 to press against the annular step 1203 to block the avoidance through hole 1202. At the same time, the annular rubber sealing airbag 15 is pressed against the annular plane 303 to seal the lead screw nut 13 and the annular plane 303. At this time, the water inside the valve body 1 cannot be sprayed out through the assembly groove 2 302. Then the bolt 2 16 can be removed with a wrench, and then the pressure cover 5 is removed, and then the handwheel 6 is pulled outward, and the handwheel 6 is continued to be rotated to make the lead screw 10 and the lead screw nut 13 close to the lead screw nut 13. 1 and 10. When the rod nut 13 is disengaged, the connecting rod 4 and the lead screw 10 are then pulled out, and the O-ring 405, the annular thrust seal 404, the annular thrust plate 2 403, the annular thrust plate 1 402 and the rubber ring 3 502 can be easily replaced. After the new O-ring 405, the annular thrust seal 404, the annular thrust plate 2 403, the annular thrust plate 1 402 and the rubber ring 3 502 are installed on the connecting rod 4, the connecting rod 4 and the lead screw 10 are inserted into the assembly groove 1 301 and the assembly groove 2 302 in turn through the pressure cover 5, and then the hand wheel 6 is rotated in the opposite direction so that the lead screw 10 is threadedly inserted into the lead screw nut 13, and then the bolt 2 16 is installed and tightened with a wrench, and the pressure cover 5 is fixedly installed on the end of the valve cap 3 away from the valve seat 2, thereby achieving the purpose of replacing the soft sealing structure without stopping the water supply, improving the maintenance efficiency and reducing the inconvenience caused by water supply failure.
