Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of valves, in particular to a metal-on-hard butterfly valve. Background Art
[0002] The butterfly valve, also known as the flap valve, is a regulating valve with a simple structure. It is a closing part that can be used for the on-off control of low-pressure pipeline media. Butterfly valves are now mostly used to control media such as water. They can cut off and throttle the water flow in the pipeline. In today's pipeline construction, valves such as butterfly valves are indispensable parts. With the rapid development of pipeline technology, the use of valves presents a better development prospect.
[0003] The utility model patent with the patent publication (announcement) number CN217003124U discloses a metal hard-to-hard butterfly valve, which includes a valve body, a valve stem and a valve plate. The valve body is provided with a flow channel for medium circulation, the valve plate is arranged on the valve stem and rotates with the valve stem, the valve body is provided with an annular groove protruding in the vertical direction, a moving block moving in the vertical direction is arranged in the annular groove, a clamping spring is arranged between the bottom of the annular groove and the moving block, and a sealing plate sealingly matched with the valve plate is arranged at the other end of the moving block relative to the clamping spring. Among them, the connection method between the valve plate and the valve stem of the butterfly valve is the same as the conventional connection method currently on the market, that is, the two are connected by a cylindrical pin. Although the structural reliability of this connection method is good, the disassembly operation of this connection method is relatively difficult when it is disassembled in the later stage because the cylindrical pin is installed with interference fit. If the cylindrical pin cannot be taken out, it is necessary to drill out the cylindrical pin, or drill a screw hole on the cylindrical pin, and then pull out the cylindrical pin after screwing. In short, this connection structure is not conducive to the disassembly operation of the valve plate in the later stage. Utility Model Content
