[0002] PTA is the abbreviation of purified terephthalic acid, which is an important bulk organic raw material. At present, the mainstream PTA production process in the market mainly adopts the two-step method of PX oxidation and TA refining. TA refining is to dissolve the crude TA transported from the oxidation device in water, and carry out hydrogenation reaction under high temperature and high pressure conditions, thereby converting the main impurity p-carboxybenzaldehyde (4-CBA) into p-toluic acid (Pt acid).

[0034] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the present invention is a three-way type integrated pipeline angle valve for flow separation and confluence, comprising a three-way pipe 1, with valve bodies 7 connected on both sides of the three-way pipe 1, a valve seat 4 is provided between the three-way pipe 1 and the valve body 7, and a valve stem 11 and a valve core 9 connected thereto are provided in the valve body 7.

[0035] like Figure 4 As shown, the valve body 7 is provided with a sealing cavity, a main flow channel 7-1, and a secondary flow channel 7-2 which are connected in sequence, the valve stem 11 slides in the sealing cavity and the main flow channel 7-1, the valve core 9 slides in the main flow channel 7-1, and the sealing cavity is sequentially installed with a packing pad 12, a graphite packing 13, a guide sleeve 14, a first graphite packing group 16, a packing spacer 17, and a second graphite packing group 18 from the inside to the outside. Figure 6 As shown, the multiple redundant sealing design has good packing sealing reliability and can meet the low fugitive emission requirements for a long time; and is fixed by the packing gland 19 and the packing plate 23. Specifically, the packing plate 23 is fastened to the valve body 7 by the plate stud 24 and the plate nut 25, and the packing plate 23 presses the second graphite packing group 18 through the packing gland 19.

[0036] The included angle between the main flow channel 7-1 and the secondary flow channel 7-2 is 135°, and the flow resistance is small.

[0037] A first O-ring 21 and a second O-ring 22 are respectively provided on the inner diameter and the outer diameter of the packing gland 19 . The first O-ring 21 seals the gap between the packing gland 19 and the valve stem 11 , and the second O-ring 22 seals the gap between the packing gland 19 and the valve body 7 .

[0038] A first guide band 15 is provided in the guide sleeve 14, and a second guide band 20 is provided in the packing gland 19. Both the first guide band 15 and the second guide band 20 are made of non-metallic wear-resistant materials. The first guide band 15 and the second guide band 20 can provide guidance for the valve stem 11 and prevent the valve stem 11 from getting stuck during movement; the main flow channel 7-1 and the valve core 9 are clearance-matched, which also plays a guiding role; the double guide design can improve the repeated positioning accuracy of the parts, and the valve has a high sealing grade and can meet Class VI requirements for a long time.

[0039] The valve stem 11 is driven by the electric actuator 8. Specifically, the electric actuator 8 includes a driving rod, and the driving rod is connected to the end of the valve stem 11 through a coupling.

[0040] In order to ensure the stability of the connection, a thread is provided at the outer end of the valve stem 11, and a tightening nut 26 is sleeved on the thread, and the tightening nut 26 is tightly attached to the coupling.

[0041] In order to prevent the valve stem 11 from rotating, a keyway is provided on the outer end of the valve stem 11 and the coupling, and an anti-rotation key 27 is placed in the keyway. Figure 5 shown.

[0042] The tee pipe 1 is a T-shaped structure, and is provided with a first channel, a second channel, and a third channel connected to each other, the first channel is located between the second channel and the third channel, and the second channel and the third channel are connected to the valve body 7 through the valve seat 4. The first channel, the second channel, and the third channel are the inlet or outlet of the slurry medium, and have good flow capacity, which can effectively prevent pipeline blockage.

[0043] The three-way pipe 1 is connected to the valve body 7 via a three-way pipe fastener 2 .

[0044] A first valve seat gasket 3 is provided between the valve seat 4 and the tee pipe 1 for plane sealing; a second valve seat gasket 5 is provided between the valve seat 4 and the valve body 7 for plane sealing; the valve seat 4 and the valve body 7 are connected with a valve seat fastening screw 6 to prevent loosening.

[0045] The valve core 9 and the valve stem 11 are integrated; the valve core 9 is a disc structure. Compared with the traditional plunger valve, the sealing shaft diameter of the valve stem 11 is greatly reduced, which is only 20% to 30% of the valve stem shaft diameter of the same caliber plunger valve, making it easier to achieve sealing.

[0046] The valve body 7 is provided with a first manual flushing valve 28 and a second manual flushing valve 10, which are convenient for flushing the slurry medium and preventing the valve cavity from being blocked and the valve core 9 from being stuck. The output port of the first manual flushing valve 28 is toward the secondary flow channel 7-2, and the output port of the second manual flushing valve 10 is toward the outer port of the main flow channel 7-1.

[0047] like Figures 7-8As shown, when the valve is used as a diverter valve, the valve core 9 is opened, and the slurry medium flows from the A side to the B side and the C side; when the valve is used as a converging valve, the valve core 9 is opened, and the slurry medium flows from the B side and the C side to the A side; the valve is a three-way type diverter and converging integrated structure.

[0048] like Figure 7-Figure 8 As shown, the valve body 7 and the three-way pipe 1 of the valve are of split structure, which is convenient for later disassembly and maintenance.

[0049] The working principle of the present invention is: the valve is installed on the pipeline. When the valve is used as a diverter valve, the electric actuator 8 drives the valve stem 11 and the valve core 9 to move linearly, the valve core 9 opens, and the slurry medium flows from the A side to the B side and the C side; when the valve is used as a converging valve, the electric actuator 8 drives the valve stem 11 and the valve core 9 to move linearly, the valve core 9 opens, and the slurry medium flows from the B side and the C side to the A side; the valve can realize the three-way diverter and converging functions. The three-way pipe 1 is a T-shaped structure with good flow capacity to prevent pipeline blockage. The angle of the valve body 7 is 135°, the flow resistance is small, and it is not easy to block; but when the inner cavity of the valve body 7 is blocked by slurry, the first manual flushing valve 28 and the second manual flushing valve 10 can be opened for flushing to prevent the valve from being stuck. The valve body 7 is provided with a valve core 9 and a valve stem 11, wherein the valve core 9 is a disc structure. Compared with the traditional plunger valve, the valve stem seal shaft diameter is greatly reduced, which is only 20% to 8% of the valve stem shaft diameter of the same caliber plunger valve, making it easier to achieve sealing. The valve body 7 is provided with a packing spacer 17 and a packing gland 19. The first graphite packing group 16 and the second graphite packing group 18 are installed on both sides of the packing spacer 17, and the first O-ring 21 and the second O-ring 22 are respectively provided inside and outside the packing gland 19. The multiple redundant sealing design has good packing sealing reliability, which can effectively cope with the working conditions containing solid media, ensuring that the valve can meet the low fugitive emission requirements for a long time. A guide sleeve 14 and a packing gland 19 are provided in the valve body 7. A first guide belt 15 is provided in the guide sleeve 14. A second guide belt 20 is provided in the packing gland 19. Both the first guide belt 15 and the second guide belt 20 are made of non-metallic wear-resistant materials. The first guide belt 15 and the second guide belt 20 can provide guidance for the valve stem 11 and prevent the valve stem 11 from getting stuck. A main flow channel 7-1 is provided in the valve body 7. The main flow channel 7-1 can provide guidance for the valve core 9. When the electric actuator 8 drives the valve stem 11 and the valve core 9 to perform a switch action, the double guide design can improve the repeated positioning accuracy of the parts and ensure that the valve can meet the Class VI sealing level requirements for a long time.

[0050] It is to be understood that the above embodiments are merely exemplary embodiments used to illustrate the principles of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For those of ordinary skill in the art, various modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the spirit and essence of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements are also considered to be within the scope of protection of the present invention.
