[0075] In the third embodiment, the automatic control device is added to the technical means of operation on the basis of the second embodiment.

[0076] Key reference Figure 5 , the top of the box 11 is fixedly installed with a control box 22, a battery 23 and a control panel 24 are installed in the control box 22, the control panel 24, the battery 23, the electric telescopic rod 14 and the motor 13 are electrically connected, and a signal transmitting module and a signal receiving module are arranged on the control panel 24, which are used for receiving external control signals and sending current signals, and are used for controlling the operation of the device.

[0077] Other structures are the same as those of embodiment two.

[0078] In the production, specifically:

[0079] S1: a conical beveling method is used to process a disc plate 10, and the disc plate 10 is in the shape of a circular truncated cone, as shown in Figure 9 ;

[0080] S2: a U-shaped ring metal valve seat ring 51 is made by a cold-rolled plate or an alloy powder high-temperature sintering method;

[0081] S3: a cleaning assembly, a driving mechanism and a control box 22 are made;

[0082] S4: the disc plate rotating shaft 20 and the two first rotating columns 8 are installed on the valve body 1, and the shaft holes are filled and sealed;

[0083] S5: the U-shaped ring metal valve seat ring 51 is assembled on the valve body 1;

[0084] S6: at this time, the fifth bearing seat 25, the sixth bearing seat 31 and the fixed seat 27 of the cleaning assembly are installed on the inner wall of the valve body 1, the driving mechanism is installed on the outer wall of the valve body 1, and the driving mechanism and the cleaning assembly are structurally matched;

[0085] S7: the battery 23 in the control box 22 supplies power to the motor 13 and the electric telescopic rod 14, and the control panel 24 controls the operation of the motor 13 and the electric telescopic rod 14.

[0086] Since the disc plate 10 is processed into a circular truncated cone by a conical beveling method, when the U-shaped ring metal valve seat ring 51 contacts the disc plate 10, an oval sealing surface is formed, and a multi-position floating seal is formed near 90 degrees. The U-shaped ring metal valve seat ring 51 can be directly embedded and installed on the inner wall of the valve body 1, or a boss and a pressing ring can be arranged on the inner wall of the valve body 1 for fixation. In this way, without using a gasket, the U-shaped ring itself and the disc plate 10 can be completely relied on for sealing.

[0087] In order to form a multi-position floating seal in a larger range near 90 degrees as much as possible, ensure the sealing effect and service life of the valve, the structure and material of the U-shaped metal valve seat ring 51 need to be further improved and optimized. According to the flat plate stress theory, the force on the valve seat ring is mainly reflected in the bottom when the pressure acts on the valve seat ring; therefore, the U-shaped metal valve seat ring 51 includes a bottom and two support arms, the inner side opening angle of the support arm is greater than the outer side opening angle, so that the wall thickness of the U-shaped ring gradually increases from the end to the bottom; in this way, the bottom can withstand higher pressure; as shown in Figure 10 Fig. 6, the inner side opening angle b of the U-shaped metal valve seat ring 51 support arm is greater than the outer side opening angle a, and the thickness D is greater than the thickness d. In this way, the valve seat ring can be more closely fitted during floating, improving the sealing characteristics. Preferably, the inner side opening angle b is 0-4 degrees greater than the outer side opening angle a, and after adapting to the circular table type disc plate, the U-shaped metal valve seat ring 51 and the disc plate 10 can more reliably form a multi-position seal between 86-94 degrees.

[0088] The above-mentioned U-shaped metal valve seat ring 51 is relatively complex to process by cold rolling and difficult to accurately control the size, therefore, it is preferred to be prepared by alloy powder high temperature sintering method, and the specific powder selection and sintering process are as follows:

[0089] S21, a matching metal mold is designed for the valve seat ring in advance.

[0090] S22, the nickel-based alloy powder is mixed with the adhesive and then granulated; the nickel-based alloy powder includes nickel powder, chromium powder, copper powder, titanium powder and beryllium powder with different particle sizes; chromium not only has similar corrosion resistance and high temperature stability with nickel, but also has higher hardness and strength; the nickel-beryllium alloy has high fatigue strength and high elastic modulus, and the molecular weight of beryllium is small, which can better fill the gap between other metal powders and improve overall corrosion resistance and wear resistance. Among them, the nickel powder, chromium powder and copper powder are used as the base powder, and the particle size is distributed between 4.0-10.0 microns; the titanium powder and the beryllium powder are used as auxiliary powder, and the particle size is distributed between 0.5-2.0 microns. In this way, the auxiliary powder can be fully filled in the gap of the base powder, and various powders with different particle sizes are tightly stacked together, so that after high temperature sintering, the internal structure of the U-shaped ring is more uniform and dense, has high surface strength and corrosion resistance, and also has certain elastic performance. Preferably, the particle size of the nickel powder is 8.0-10.0 microns, the particle size of the chromium powder is 6.0-8.0 microns, and the particle size of the copper powder is 4.0-6.0 microns; the particle size of the titanium powder is 1.5-2.0 microns, the particle size of the beryllium powder is 0.5-1.0 microns, and the weight ratio of the nickel powder: chromium powder: copper powder: titanium powder: beryllium powder is 15-20: 10-15: 5-10: 2: 1. Through the double improvement of material and structure, it is further ensured that the valve can still guarantee good floating sealing effect during long-term use, and the service life of the valve is greatly improved.

[0091] S23, the granulated mixture is heated into a fluid material in the injection machine barrel, and is injected into a metal mold under a set injection pressure to form a preform.

[0092] S24, the preform is placed in an extraction liquid, and after the adhesive is removed, it is placed in a sintering furnace for high temperature sintering to obtain a valve seat ring.

[0093] In this embodiment, first, the two sides of the device are installed on the pipeline. During installation on the pipeline, soil or other impurities may be placed on the inner wall of the valve body 1, and the impurities will grow bacteria and other foreign matter for a long time on the inner wall of the pipeline, thereby polluting the medium in the pipeline and affecting the sealing performance of the valve.

[0094] Firstly, the electric telescopic rod 14 is started to make the electric telescopic rod 14 contract to the shortest state, and at this time, the first gear 19 is engaged with the sixth gear 49, and the spline strip 38 is limitedly and slidably connected in the third spline shaft sleeve 18.
