[0036] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present disclosure clearer, the technical solution of the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings of the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, not all of the embodiments. Based on the described embodiments of the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0037] See also Figure 1-8 A production device for a low-leakage ball valve provided by an embodiment of the invention comprises a frame 1 and a conveying platform 2, which is horizontally slidably installed at the bottom of the frame 1, a valve body mounting seat 3 is installed on the top of the conveying platform 2, a push correction mechanism 4 is installed on one side of the valve body mounting seat 3, and a lifting frame 5 is vertically slidably installed on the frame 1, and a valve stem plug-in clamp 6 and an elastic pressure frame 7 are installed at the bottom of the lifting frame 5, and a plug-in cleaning mechanism 8 connected to the lifting frame 5 by transmission is installed on the elastic pressure frame 7. When the conveying platform 2 moves to the assembly station, the push correction mechanism 4 pre-calibrates the position of the valve body 10, and then when the elastic pressure frame 7 abuts against the conveying platform 2, the lifting frame 5 drives the plug-in cleaning mechanism 8 to be inserted into the plug hole of the valve stem 11 on the calibrated valve body 10 and then pulled out during the descent of the lifting frame 5.

[0038] Specifically, the frame 1 adopts an L-shaped frame, the conveying platform 2 slides on its horizontal section, the lifting frame 5 rises and falls on its vertical section, the valve body mounting seat 3 is fixed on the upper surface of the conveying platform 2, and the top of the valve body mounting seat 3 is provided with a placement hole for inserting the ball valve body 10. During production and assembly, the valve body 10 is first inserted into the placement hole and installed on the valve body mounting seat 3 of the conveying platform 2, and the plug-in part of the valve stem 11 on the valve body 10 is placed in the pushing correction mechanism 4, and then the conveying platform 2 is translated to the assembly station. During the movement, the position of the plug-in hole of the valve stem 11 on the valve body 10 is pre-calibrated by the pushing correction mechanism 4 to ensure that the plug-in direction of the valve stem 11 is aligned with the movement axis of the plug-in cleaning mechanism 8. When the conveying platform 2 arrives at the assembly station, the lifting frame 5 When the lifting frame 5 starts to descend, the elastic pressure frame 7 first contacts with the conveying platform 2, and buffers the contact impact through elastic deformation. The plug-in cleaning mechanism 8 is inserted into the plug hole of the valve stem 11 as the lifting frame 5 descends, and is automatically pulled out after the inner wall of the plug hole is cleaned, completing the cleaning and secondary calibration of the plug hole of the valve stem 11 in the valve body 10. Finally, the valve stem 11 is clamped by the valve stem plug-in fixture 6 to assemble it into the cleaned ball valve body 10, allowing the valve stem 11 body to pass through the inside of the ball valve body 10, completing the assembly production of the valve body 10 and the valve stem 11 body. The edge of the flow-blocking structure on the valve stem 11 body is arc-shaped. After the assembly is completed, its arc-shaped surface contacts the inner wall of the valve body 10, preventing the internal gas or liquid of the ball valve from leaking from the plug-in joint of the valve stem 11, thereby improving the overall sealing performance.

[0039] Compared with the prior art, in the embodiment of the present invention, by setting a dynamic pre-calibration mechanism, the pushing and correcting mechanism 4 performs real-time angle correction on the valve body 10 during the movement of the conveying table 2, integrating the calibration process into the conveying process, enabling the valve body 10 to have a certain degree of deviation when placed, being able to meet the working environment with low placement accuracy, saving the docking time of the subsequent plugging and cleaning mechanism 8, ensuring the plugging accuracy. The plugging and cleaning mechanism 8 will synchronously complete the deep cleaning of the valve stem 11 insertion hole on the valve body 10 when the lifting frame 5 descends, and at the same time use the plugging and cleaning mechanism 8 to further correct the deviation of the valve body 10, ensuring that the valve stem plugging fixture 6 will not overly damage the integrity of the internal sealing structure of the valve body 10 during the process of clamping the valve stem 11 for plugging.

[0040] In a further embodiment of the present invention, a horizontal hydraulic push rod 201 and a vertical hydraulic push rod 501 are respectively installed on the frame 1. The end of the horizontal hydraulic push rod 201 is connected to one side of the conveying table 2, and the end of the vertical hydraulic push rod 501 is connected to the top of the lifting frame 5. Specifically, the horizontal hydraulic push rod 201 is installed on the back of the frame 1, and the end of its piston rod is rigidly connected to one side of the conveying table 2, used to drive the conveying table 2 to reciprocate horizontally on the frame 1. The vertical hydraulic push rod 501 is installed on the top of the frame 1, and the end of its piston rod is fixed to the top of the lifting frame 5, used to control the vertical lifting of the lifting frame 5. When the conveying table 2 reaches the assembly station, the horizontal hydraulic push rod 201 locks to keep the position of the conveying table 2 unchanged.

[0041] In a further embodiment of the present invention, a linear guide rail 102 adapted to the conveying table 2 is fixedly connected to the frame 1. Brake rods 203 are inserted on both sides of the conveying table 2. The pushing and correcting mechanism 4 squeezes the brake rods 203 to make them abut and cooperate with the linear guide rail 102. Specifically, the linear guide rail 102 is fixedly parallel to the frame 1 and is consistent with the moving direction of the conveying table 2. When the conveying table 2 reaches the assembly station, the pushing and correcting mechanism 4 can not only correct the position of the valve body 10, but also synchronously push the two brake rods 203 on both sides, making the brake rods 203 generate contact pressure with the side surface of the linear guide rail 102, and achieving the stability of the conveying table 2 through friction. After the position of the conveying table 2 is fixed, the vertical hydraulic push rod 501 drives the lifting frame 5 to descend, sequentially completing the hole cleaning and the stable assembly of the valve stem 11. After the assembly is completed, the conveying table 2 is then moved away from the assembly station so that the brake rods 203 are not squeezed by the pushing and correcting mechanism 4, releasing the pressing on the linear guide rail 102.

[0042] In a further embodiment of the present invention, the pushing and correcting mechanism 4 includes clamping plates 401 symmetrically installed on the valve body mounting seat 3. A top spring 402 is installed between the clamping plates 401 and the valve body mounting seat 3. Specifically, when the conveying table 2 moves, the valve body 10 contacts the clamping plates 401 due to inertial deviation. The top spring 402 is compressed to generate an adaptive clamping force, continuously correcting the position of the valve body 10. By means of elastic clamping for azimuth calibration, it can avoid the problem of wear of the valve body 10 caused by the deviation of the valve body 10 and the inability to dynamically compensate when the plugging and cleaning mechanism 8 is inserted into the valve body 10, and can have a certain buffering effect to enable the secondary guiding of the plugging and cleaning mechanism 8 to be successfully completed.

[0043] In a further embodiment of the present invention, pull rods 403 are symmetrically and slidably installed on one side of the valve body mounting seat 3. A guiding groove 101 is formed at the bottom of the frame 1. A hook 404 is installed on the back of the clamping plate 401 and is hooked to the top end of the pull rod 403. The bottom end of the pull rod 403 is inserted into the guiding groove 101. When a pair of pull rods 403 are translated along the guiding groove 101 to the assembly station, they approach each other. Specifically, the guiding groove 101 is formed at the bottom of the frame 1 and is a V-shaped tapered track symmetrically distributed. The opening direction of the hook 404 faces downward and is hooked on the top of the pull rod 403. The inside of the hook 404 has a space for the translational movement of the pull rod 403. Before the entire conveying table 2 moves to the assembly station, the guiding groove 101 forces a pair of pull rods 403 to move away from each other and be in an open state, forcing the distance between the two clamping plates 401 to become larger, thereby facilitating the rapid placement of the valve body 10 on the valve body mounting seat 3. When the conveying table 2 moves towards the assembly station, a pair of pull rods 403 will approach each other under the guidance of the guiding groove 101. Before the pull rod 403 contacts the back of the clamping plate 401, the clamping plate 401 completes the elastic calibration of the valve body 10 through the top spring 402. At this time, the rigid collision between the plugging and cleaning mechanism 8 and the valve body 10 can be avoided. Until the conveying table 2 reaches the assembly station, the pull rod 403 then contacts the back of the clamping plate 401 to apply a stable lateral pressure to firmly fix the valve body 10, thereby ensuring that the valve body 10 that has been calibrated multiple times during the plugging process of the valve stem 11 cannot be displaced.

[0044] In a further embodiment of the present invention, on one side of the top of the elastic pressing frame 7, limiting insertion rods 701 are symmetrically and fixedly connected. The top of the limiting insertion rods 701 penetrates through the lifting frame 5, and a buffer spring 702 is sleeved outside the limiting insertion rods 701, with both ends of the buffer spring 702 abutting against the elastic pressing frame 7 and the lifting frame 5 respectively. An observation port 703 is formed between a pair of limiting insertion rods 701 and the plugging and cleaning mechanism 8 on the top of the elastic pressing frame 7. The width of the observation port 703 is greater than the width of the valve body mounting seat 3. Specifically, the top end of the limiting insertion rod 701 passes through a preset through hole on the lifting frame 5 and forms a sliding fit with the lifting frame 5. When the lifting frame 5 drives the elastic pressing frame 7 to descend, the elastic pressing frame 7 will pass through the valve body mounting seat 3 and rest on the conveying table 2. At this time, the limiting insertion rod 701 can prevent the lifting frame 5 from shifting due to the pressure generated when the lifting frame 5 descends further. The vertical hydraulic push rod 501 drives the lifting frame 5 to descend, and the elastic pressing frame 7 first abuts against the conveying table 2 through the flexible contact of the buffer spring 702. The observation port 703 ensures that the valve body mounting seat 3 is completely exposed within the field of vision. The operator can first monitor the position of the valve body 10 in real time through the observation port 703 when the elastic pressing frame 7 is above the valve body mounting seat 3. At the initial stage of the contact between the elastic pressing frame 7 and the conveying table 2, the buffer spring 702 absorbs the impact energy through linear deformation, avoiding damage to precision components, and can gradually exert pressure on the conveying table 2 to further complete the fixation of the conveying table 2.

[0045] In a further embodiment of the present invention, the plugging and cleaning mechanism 8 includes a moving bracket 801 that is horizontally slidably connected to the elastic pressing frame 7. A cleaning column 802 is fixedly connected to the top of the moving bracket 801. The plugging end of the cleaning column 802 is in the shape of a frustum of a cone. A return spring 803 is installed between the bottom of the moving bracket 801 and the elastic pressing frame 7. Transmission gears 804 are rotatably installed on both sides of the elastic pressing frame 7. A pulling rope 805 connected to the end of the moving bracket 801 is wound around the outside of the transmission gears 804. Driving racks 502 meshing with the transmission gears 804 are symmetrically installed at the bottom of the lifting frame 5. Specifically, when the vertical hydraulic push rod 501 drives the lifting frame 5 to descend, the driving racks 502 drive the transmission gears 804 to rotate counterclockwise, and then the moving bracket 801 is horizontally pulled towards the center of the valve body 10 through the pulling rope 805, so that the cleaning column 802 is inserted into the socket of the valve stem 11. During the insertion process of the cleaning column 802, it contacts and rubs against the inner wall of the socket to discharge debris. When the moving bracket 801 moves to the limit position, the return spring 803 is compressed and stores energy. Then, as the lifting frame 5 descends further, the area without teeth on the driving rack 502 and the transmission gear 804 are at the same height. At this time, the return spring 803 releases energy to pull back the moving bracket 801, so that the cleaning column 802 is quickly pulled out of the socket of the valve stem 11 to prevent the cleaning column 802 from interfering with the assembly of the valve stem 11. The entire cleaning action is integrated into the descending stroke of the lifting frame 5, shortening the overall assembly production time.

[0046] In a further embodiment of the present invention, a positioning post 503 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the driving rack 502, and a positioning hole 204 matching the positioning post 503 is formed at the top of the conveying table 2. Specifically, the driving rack 502 can not only drive the moving bracket 801 equipped with the cleaning post 802 to move towards the valve body 10, but also insert the positioning post 503 into the positioning hole 204 on the conveying table 2 before the valve stem is inserted into the fixture 6 for valve stem 11 assembly. This not only further locks the position of the conveying table 2, but also can prevent the offset generated during the reciprocating lifting of the lifting frame 5 from affecting the sealing performance of the assembled ball valve. If the position of the lifting frame 5 or the conveying table 2 deviates too much, the height of the valve stem insertion fixture 6 will not be sufficient for it to enter the valve body 10 to complete the assembly of the valve stem 11, thereby improving the yield rate.

[0047] In a further embodiment of the present invention, an elastic airbag 9 is installed on the top of the elastic pressing frame 7, and an air delivery hole 301 communicating with the elastic airbag 9 is formed on the valve body mounting seat 3. The air delivery hole 301 is communicated with the internal space of the valve body 10. When the bottom of the elastic pressing frame 7 abuts against the top surface of the conveying table 2, the elastic airbag 9 is communicated with the air delivery hole 301. Specifically, the elastic airbag 9 is hollow inside, and an air nozzle 901 embedded in the elastic pressing frame 7 is provided at the bottom. The position of the air nozzle 901 is on the inner wall of the observation port 703. After the elastic abutting frame contacts the conveying table 2, the air nozzle 901 of the elastic airbag 9 and the air delivery hole 301 on the valve body mounting seat 3 are on the same horizontal line and are communicated with each other. At this time, as the lifting frame 5 further descends to squeeze the elastic airbag 9, the gas stored in the elastic airbag 9 will be blown into the valve body 10 through the air nozzle 901 and the air delivery hole 301 to clean the residual waste chips in the valve body 10 before the valve stem 11 is assembled.

[0048] A production method of a low-leakage ball valve production device includes the following steps:

[0049] S1. First, install the valve body 10 on the valve body mounting seat 3 of the conveying table 2, and make the part of the valve stem 11 inserted on the valve body 10 be in the pressing and correcting mechanism 4;

[0050] S2. Move the conveying table 2 to the assembly station, and pre-calibrate the orientation of the valve stem 11 insertion hole on the valve body 10 through the pressing and correcting mechanism 4 during the movement;

[0051] S3. When the conveying table 2 reaches the assembly station, the lifting frame 5 starts to descend until the elastic pressing frame 7 abuts against the conveying table 2;

[0052] S4. The lifting frame 2 continues to descend, driving the plugging and cleaning mechanism 8 to insert into the pre-calibrated insertion hole and then pull out, completing the cleaning and secondary calibration of the valve stem 11 insertion hole;

[0053] S5. Assemble the valve stem 11 into the cleaned jack through the valve stem insertion fixture 6 to complete the assembly production of the ball valve body 10 and the valve stem 11.

[0054] Only some exemplary embodiments of the present invention are described by way of illustration above. Undoubtedly, for those of ordinary skill in the art, the described embodiments can be modified in various different ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
