AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing valves in fields such as nuclear energy and nuclear fusion suffer from problems such as high flow resistance, slow opening and closing, and high external leakage rate, making it difficult to simultaneously meet the requirements of low flow resistance, fast opening and closing, and extremely low external leakage.

Method used

Combining the rotary opening and closing structure of a butterfly valve or ball valve with a bellows-type valve stem sealing assembly, it adopts a fully welded sealing structure, is equipped with a linear actuator and gear and rack drive, and is equipped with auxiliary sealing and leakage detection holes. It uses a disc spring to provide preload.

Benefits of technology

It achieves a balance between extremely low external leakage rate and low flow resistance, features rapid opening and closing and precise adjustment functions, provides dual sealing redundancy and online monitoring, and is suitable for high-risk occasions such as nuclear energy and nuclear fusion.

Abstract

本发明公开了一种低泄漏波纹管阀,属于阀门技术领域。该阀门包括阀体单元、波纹管式阀杆组件及直线执行器,阀体单元内的旋转式启闭件阀杆末端设有齿轮;波纹管式阀杆组件包括阀杆、波纹管和压套,波纹管两端分别与阀杆和压套密封焊接形成全密封屏障,阀杆一端设有齿条并与齿轮啮合;直线执行器驱动阀杆做直线运动,通过齿条齿轮传动驱动旋转式启闭件旋转以调节开度。本发明还设置有填料辅助密封及泄漏检测孔,在波纹管意外破裂时提供双重冗余保护并可在线监测。本发明将蝶阀或球阀的低流阻、快速启闭特性与波纹管密封的极低外泄漏性能相结合,具有流阻小、泄漏率低、调节精确、安全可靠的特点,适用于核能、核聚变等对泄漏控制要求严苛的场景。
