Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of valve processing equipment, and particularly to a clamping device for processing the end cover of a forged cryogenic graphite ball valve. Background Technique

[0002] A ball valve refers to a valve in which the closing member (ball) is driven by a valve stem and rotates around the axis of the ball valve. A ball valve usually consists of a valve body, a ball (valve core), a valve seat, a valve stem, a driving device and other structures. Among them, there is also an end cover of the ball valve, which is usually connected to the valve body through a flange screw cover design or a threaded tight fit method, and a gasket is installed to achieve sealing, which can effectively prevent medium leakage. At the same time, it is sleeved outside the valve stem and serves as an anti-ejection structure for the valve stem to prevent the valve stem from ejecting from the valve body under high-pressure conditions.

[0003] Currently, in the production process of common valve covers, machining steps such as turning, milling, threading, drilling and tapping are required. During these machining processes, the stable installation of the ball valve end cover needs to be ensured, which requires the use of a clamping mechanism to clamp the ball valve end cover. For example, in a rapid cutting device for processing the end cover of a forged ball valve in the prior art one (Publication No.: CN208408719U), the forged ball valve end cover is placed in a cutting groove and clamped and fixed by a compression spring and a pressing block, making it not easy to shake and improving the flatness of the cut. At the same time, in a clamping device for processing the end cover of a forged ball valve in the prior art two (Publication No.: CN108705019B), the movement of the first limit block and the second limit block is controlled by the first sliding unit and the second sliding unit respectively to adapt to the sizes of different types of end covers, and by setting two groups of limit blocks with different heights, the large end and the small end of the end cover are clamped respectively, avoiding the shaking of the workpiece during the processing and improving the working accuracy and working efficiency.

[0004] In the above-mentioned prior art one, the clamping function for the ball valve end cover is relatively single, lacking the clamping function for different types of ball valve end covers, reducing the practicability of the clamping device. In the prior art two, the ball valve end cover is clamped by setting limit blocks, and by adjusting the moving position and height of the limit blocks to adapt to different end cover clamping requirements, the effect of improving the clamping range of the clamping device is achieved. However, during the clamping process, the shape of the limit block is relatively single. Among the types of ball valve end covers, there are various end covers with different shapes and appearances, and all types cannot be clamped by the limit blocks. When different-shaped ball valve end covers need to be clamped, the limit blocks need to be replaced, reducing the working efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0016] The present invention has the following beneficial effects: (1) The present invention adopts multiple independently driven motors to drive the corresponding clamping mechanism to move and complete the clamping of the ball valve end cover, thereby being able to clamp different types of end covers, thereby improving the scope of application of the clamping device. At the same time, the present invention adopts multiple clamping plates of different shapes for the clamping mechanism to clamp the ball valve end cover, thereby further adapting to the clamping requirements of different types of end covers, further improving the scope of application of the clamping device.

The conversion is fast, which ensures the convenience of use of the clamping device.

[0017] (2) In the present invention, a connecting block and a return spring are provided to connect the clamping plate and the mounting seat, so that the clamping plate has a buffering effect. Therefore, when the ball valve end cover is clamped, a hard collision can be avoided during the initial contact process, thereby improving the safety of clamping the end cover. In addition, by providing a push airbag 1 and a push airbag 2, when the clamping plate is squeezed during the contact process with the ball valve end cover, the airflow conversion can be completed, so that the airflow in the push airbag 2 enters the push airbag 1, and then the push airbag 1 pushes the connector to move and make close contact with the inner wall of the cross-shaped slide groove on the fixed frame. During the whole process, the clamping plate, the mounting seat, the fixed seat, the sliding block, the fixed frame and the fixed frame are in an integrated whole. The vibration force in the process of processing the ball valve end cover can be better transmitted to the fixed frame, thereby reducing the influence of the vibration force on the clamping mechanism and ensuring the stability of the clamping mechanism in clamping the ball valve end cover.

In the process of pushing the airbag two being squeezed and flowing outward, part of the airflow can be moved into the pushing airbag three, and then the clamping strip is pushed to contact the outer side of the ball valve end cover. The frosted strip on the clamping strip can increase the friction between the clamping strip and the outer side of the ball valve end cover, thereby further improving the clamping stability of the ball valve end cover.

[0019] (4) The present invention provides a mounting groove on the fixed frame and a resistance member on the sliding block. Therefore, in the process of clamping the ball valve end cover, the resistance member first contacts the outer side of the ball valve end cover, and under the action of the resistance spring, the resistance tube and the resistance rod are contracted. In this process, the ball valve end cover indirectly gives the sliding block a moving reverse force, and the force acts on the threaded connection between the sliding block and the moving screw. After the ball valve end cover is clamped, the threaded connection can be ensured to be more stable, thereby indirectly ensuring the stability of the ball valve end cover clamping.

[0033] During use, place the ball valve end cover to be processed into the placement groove on the fixed frame 1. Then, select a suitable clamping plate 10 according to the shape of the ball valve end cover and install it on the fixed seat 8. Specifically, insert the positioning block on the mounting seat 9 into the corresponding positioning groove on the fixed seat 8, and then insert the concave plug 11 into the concave slots on the mounting seat 9 and the fixed seat 8 to complete the connection between the mounting seat 9 and the fixed seat 8. Subsequently, place the cover plate 12 on the fixed seat 8 and lock it with bolts to prevent the concave plug 11 from moving. Then, start the corresponding moving motor 202 to drive the moving screw 203 to move, and then drive the corresponding clamping mechanism 3 to move. Clamp the outside of the ball valve end cover through the clamping mechanism 3 to complete the clamping operation of the ball valve end cover. During the process of the clamping mechanism 3 clamping the ball valve end cover, the clamping plate 10 first contacts the outside of the ball valve end cover and is extruded to move towards the mounting seat 9. During this process, the pushing strip 18 on the clamping plate 10 will squeeze the second pushing airbag 17. The air flow in the second pushing airbag 17 flows into the first pushing airbag 5, and then pushes the connecting member 6 to move, so that the connecting member 6 is in close contact with the inner wall of the cross-shaped sliding groove on the fixed frame 201, forming a relatively tight whole among the clamping plate 10, the mounting seat 9, the fixed seat 8, the sliding block 4, the fixed frame 201 and the fixed frame 1, thereby reducing the influence of the vibration force during the processing of the ball valve end cover on the connection between the moving block 204 and the moving screw 203, ensuring the clamping stability of the ball valve end cover. At the same time, part of the air flow in the second pushing airbag 17 flows into the third pushing airbag 21, pushing the clamping strip 20 to move and contact the outside of the ball valve end cover, further increasing the friction force between the clamping plate 10 and the outside of the ball valve end cover, thereby improving the clamping stability of the ball valve end cover. In summary, the stability of the ball valve end cover after clamping can be ensured, and the safety of processing can be guaranteed.
