[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0017] 1. A gate valve with a lubricating function according to the present invention. In the present invention, sealing rings are respectively installed at both ends of the valve core gate plate. When the valve core gate plate slides downward, the two first inclined surfaces of the valve core gate plate are respectively close to and fit with the second inclined surfaces of the two sealing rings. When the valve core gate plate slides to the lowermost end, the first inclined surface and the second inclined surface are completely fitted and pressed, thereby completely closing the water intercepting groove of the valve body to achieve the closing of the gate valve. When the valve needs to be opened, the handwheel is rotated to drive the rotating column to rotate.

At this time, the first water passing hole is communicated with the water intercepting groove, and the gate valve is opened. The gate valve is opened and the flow rate of the gate valve is adjusted by rotating the handwheel to adjust the positions of the valve rod and the valve core gate plate, and the adjustment is convenient and fast.

[0018] 2. A gate valve with a lubricating function according to the present invention. During the up and down sliding process of the valve rod, the lubricating mechanism fully lubricates the outer circumferential surface of the valve rod. During the use of the gate valve, the valve rod slides relatively with the first oil-impregnated packing, the second oil-impregnated packing, the first graphite and the second graphite. The lubricating oil flows into the oil seepage groove through the first oil outlet hole and the second oil outlet hole. The lubricating oil slowly accumulates in the arc-shaped ring groove until the oil seepage groove is full. The bottom of the first oil-impregnated packing contacts the lubricating oil and permeates the lubricating oil to the first oil-impregnated packing, the second oil-impregnated packing, the first graphite and the second graphite in sequence. The outer circumferential surface of the valve rod is fully lubricated by the first oil-impregnated packing, the second oil-impregnated packing, the first graphite and the second graphite, reducing the wear on the surface of the valve rod and extending the service life of the valve rod.

[0049] As Figure 17 and Figure 18 shown, a swivel base 71 is provided at the lower end of the swivel column 7. The swivel base 71 is snap-fitted into the second card slot 202. A second gasket 17 is provided at the connection between the swivel base 71 and the second card slot 202. The second gasket 17 is sleeved on the swivel column 7. A second connection hole 701 is formed in the middle of the swivel column 7. An internal thread 703 is provided at the upper end of the second connection hole 701. The threaded portion 41 of the valve stem 4 is in threaded connection with the internal thread 703 for transmission. The structure of the swivel column 7 is a stepped shaft. An external thread 72 is provided at the outer edge of the upper end of the swivel column 7. Six stop cut grooves 73 are provided at the outer edge of the stepped portion of the swivel column 7. The top of the stop cut groove 73 is located below the external thread 72. The bottom of the stop cut groove 73 is located above the first through hole 201 of the upper cover 2. A handwheel 10 is sleeved on the swivel column 7. A regular hexagonal hole is formed in the middle of the handwheel 10. The regular hexagonal hole is matched with the six stop cut grooves 73 for limiting. A second nut 15 is threadedly connected to the external thread 72. A first gasket 16 is provided between the top of the handwheel 10 and the bottom of the second nut 15. The first gasket 16 is sleeved on the external thread 72. The handwheel 10 is locked on the swivel column 7 by the second nut 15.

[0050] Specifically, in the embodiment, sealing rings 9 are respectively installed at both ends of the valve core gate 8. When the valve core gate 8 slides downward, the two first inclined surfaces 82 of the valve core gate 8 are respectively close to and fit with the second inclined surfaces 94 of the two sealing rings 9. When the valve core gate 8 slides to the lowermost end, the first inclined surface 82 is completely in fit and pressed with the second inclined surface 94, thereby completely closing the water intercepting groove 106 of the valve body 1 to achieve the closing of the gate valve. When the valve needs to be opened, the handwheel 10 is rotated to drive the rotating column 7 to rotate. The internal thread 703 of the rotating column 7 is in threaded transmission with the threaded portion 41 of the valve rod 4, thereby driving the valve rod 4 to slide upward. The valve core gate 8 slides upward along the water intercepting groove 106 and the first sliding hole 1031, so that the first inclined surface 82 of the valve core gate 8 is separated from the second inclined surfaces 94 of the two sealing rings 9. At this time, the first water passing hole 104 is communicated with the water intercepting groove 106, and the gate valve is opened. The gate valve is opened and the flow rate of the gate valve is adjusted by rotating the handwheel 10 to adjust the positions of the valve rod 4 and the valve core gate 8. The adjustment is convenient and fast. During the up and down sliding process of the valve rod 4, the lubrication mechanism 6 fully lubricates the outer circumferential surface of the valve rod 4. During installation, sufficient lubricating oil is first injected into the oil storage groove 613 of the copper sleeve 61. The first oil-impregnated packing 63, the second oil-impregnated packing 64, the first graphite 65 and the second graphite 66 are fixed into the installation groove 611. The oil seal 62 is fixed on the top of the copper sleeve 61, so that the second convex block 622 is inserted into the oil storage groove 613 to seal it. The sealing rubber ring 67 in the fourth groove 623 firmly presses on the top of the second graphite 66. During the use of the gate valve, the valve rod 4 slides relatively at the contact positions with the first oil-impregnated packing 63, the second oil-impregnated packing 64, the first graphite 65 and the second graphite 66. The lubricating oil flows into the oil seepage groove 616 through the first oil outlet hole 614 and the second oil outlet hole 615. The lubricating oil slowly accumulates in the arc-shaped ring groove 617 until the oil seepage groove 616 is filled up. The bottom of the first oil-impregnated packing 63 contacts the lubricating oil and permeates the lubricating oil to the first oil-impregnated packing 63, the second oil-impregnated packing 64, the first graphite 65 and the second graphite 66 in sequence. The outer circumferential surface of the valve rod 4 is fully lubricated by the first oil-impregnated packing 63, the second oil-impregnated packing 64, the first graphite 65 and the second graphite 66, reducing the wear on the surface of the valve rod 4 and extending the service life of the valve rod 4.
