Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of valves, and in particular relates to a low-resistance light butterfly valve. Background Art

[0002] A butterfly valve, also known as a flap valve, is a regulating valve with a simple structure. It can be used for the on-off control of low-pressure pipeline media. A butterfly valve refers to a valve whose closing part (valve disc or butterfly plate) is a disc, which rotates around the valve shaft to achieve opening and closing. It can be used to control the flow of various types of fluids such as air, water, steam, various corrosive media, mud, oil, liquid metal and radioactive media. It mainly plays a cutting and throttling role on the pipeline. The butterfly valve opening and closing part is a disc-shaped butterfly plate, which rotates around its own axis in the valve body to achieve the purpose of opening and closing or regulation. For example, a low-resistance and lightweight butterfly valve disclosed in the patent with application number CN202321168219.3 includes a valve body, a valve stem is installed on the top of the valve plate inside the valve body, a sealing packing and a sealing gasket are provided between the valve stem and the valve body, and a valve cover is installed on the top of the valve body;

[0003] During the use of existing butterfly valves, the valve stem will be subject to a certain resistance during rotation, causing inconvenience in opening. When the valve plate is opened, the valve plate will cause a certain resistance to the fluid, affecting the transmission of the fluid, and will also affect the valve plate, reducing the service life of the valve plate. At the same time, during the use of the butterfly valve, the valve plate is also easily affected by impurities, resulting in reduced sealing of the valve plate, so it is necessary to make improvements. Utility Model Content

[0025] 2. The setting of the extension arm can effectively increase the length of the force arm when the valve plate rotates, thereby reducing the difficulty of rotating the valve stem and making it easier for users to control the valve stem;

[0026] 3. The shuttle-shaped valve plate can effectively reduce the impact of the fluid on the valve plate after the butterfly valve is opened, and reduce the resistance of the valve plate to the fluid. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0038] Embodiment 1:

[0039] The embodiment of the present application provides a low-resistance lightweight butterfly valve, comprising: a valve body 1, a fluid channel 100 is arranged in the valve body 1, connecting flanges 101 are arranged on both sides of the valve body 1, and a valve plate 3 driven by a valve stem 2 is arranged in the valve body 1;

[0040] The valve body 1 also includes: a filter section 4, which is arranged at one end of the valve body 1 and located at the inlet side of the fluid channel 100, and is used to filter impurities in the fluid; a hand wheel 5, which is arranged at the top of the valve stem 2; and an extension arm 6, which is arranged on the hand wheel 5 and is used to increase the length of the force arm when the valve stem 2 rotates.

[0041] The cross section of the valve plate 3 is shuttle-shaped.

[0042] In this embodiment, during the use of the butterfly valve, the filter section 4 can effectively filter impurities in the fluid, thereby preventing the impurities contained in the fluid from affecting the valve plate 3 and ensuring the sealing performance of the valve plate 3. The valve plate 3 with a shuttle-shaped cross-section can effectively reduce the impact of the fluid on the valve plate 3 after opening, and reduce the resistance caused by the valve plate 3 to the fluid. At the same time, when the valve plate 3 is controlled by the valve stem 2, the extension arm 6 can effectively increase the length of the force arm when the valve plate 3 rotates, thereby reducing the difficulty of rotating the valve stem 2 and facilitating the user to control the valve stem 2.

[0043] Embodiment 2:

[0044] The present embodiment provides a low-resistance lightweight butterfly valve, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above-mentioned embodiments, also has the following technical features: the extension arm 6 also includes: a receiving groove 60, which is arranged on the hand wheel 5; a first arm body 61, which is movably arranged in the receiving groove 60, and the tail end of the first arm body 61 is connected to the receiving groove 60 through a first limiting rope 62; a second arm body 63, which is movably arranged in the first arm body 61, and the tail end of the second arm body 63 is connected to the first arm body 61 through a second limiting rope 64; a third arm body 65, which is movably arranged in the second arm body 63, and the tail end of the third arm body 65 is connected to the second arm body 63 through a third limiting rope 66.

[0045] After being unfolded, the first arm 61, the second arm 63 and the third arm 65 are supported by each other through buckling friction.

[0046] The handwheel 5 is of conventional structure, the receiving groove 60 can be a cylindrical groove, the receiving groove 60 is arranged on the inner rod of the handwheel 5, the receiving groove 60 can be cylindrical, the first arm body 61 and the second arm body 63 can both be hollow cylindrical, the first arm body 61, the second arm body 63 and the third arm body 65 are all made of metal and preferably steel.

[0047] In this embodiment, when it is difficult to rotate the valve stem 2 by the hand wheel 5, the third arm body 65 is pulled to move it toward the outside of the hand wheel 5. As the third arm body 65 is pulled open, the second arm body 63 and the first arm body 61 are also pulled open. The first limiting rope 62, the second limiting rope 64 and the third limiting rope 66 can prevent the first arm body 61, the second arm body 63 and the third arm body 65 from separating during the unfolding process. After the extension arm 6 is unfolded, when the user applies force to the extension arm 6, a bending friction support can be formed between the second arm body 63 and the third arm body 65, thereby preventing the extension arm 6 from retracting when the hand wheel 5 is rotated by the extension arm 6. After the extension arm 6 is unfolded, the force arm length when the valve plate 3 is rotated can be effectively increased, thereby reducing the difficulty of rotating the valve stem 2 and facilitating the user to control the valve stem 2. The extension arm 6 has a simple structure and is easy to use, which effectively improves work efficiency.
