[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of valves, in particular to a liquid hydrogen cryogenic stop valve. Background Art

[0002] Low temperature stop valve refers to a valve whose closing part (valve disc) moves along the center line of the valve seat. According to this movement of the valve disc, the change of the valve seat opening is proportional to the valve disc stroke. Since the valve stem opening or closing stroke of this type of valve is relatively short and has a very reliable shutoff function, and since the change of the valve seat opening is proportional to the valve disc stroke, it is very suitable for regulating flow. Therefore, this type of valve is very suitable for use as a cut-off, regulation and throttling.

[0003] With the rapid development of my country's hydrogen energy industry, the demand for hydrogen energy is showing explosive growth. The normal boiling point of liquid hydrogen at one atmosphere is 20.37K (-252.78℃), and the freezing point is 13.96K (-259.19℃). Due to the low temperature characteristics of liquid hydrogen medium, low temperature stop valves are required to ensure the safety of transportation pipelines.

[0004] However, the cryogenic stop valve in the prior art cannot stably achieve the ultra-low temperature transportation environment of liquid hydrogen, that is, it cannot reduce the heat exchange between the outer wall of the valve and the air, and still causes a large amount of heat loss. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a cryogenic stop valve that can stably and low-temperature transport liquid hydrogen. Utility Model Content

[0026] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, it is an embodiment of the utility model, a liquid hydrogen cryogenic stop valve, comprising a valve body 1, a valve disc 2 and a valve stem 3 connected to the valve disc 2, a medium channel 4 is provided inside the valve body 1, the valve disc 2 is arranged in the medium channel 4, a valve seat which seals with the valve disc 2 is also provided in the medium channel 4, the valve body 1 is connected to a valve cover 5, one end of the valve stem 3 away from the valve disc 2 passes through the valve cover 5 and is connected to a hand wheel 6, and also comprises a vacuum jacket 7 arranged on the outside of the valve body 1, a flange 8 extends from one end of the valve body 1 close to the valve cover 5, one end of the vacuum jacket 7 is connected to the flange 8 and the other end is connected to the outer wall of the valve body 1 corresponding to the medium channel 4, a vacuum chamber 9 is formed between the vacuum jacket 7 and the valve body 1, and the end of the vacuum jacket 7 close to the medium channel 4 is provided with a first screw plug 10 connected to the vacuum chamber 9.

[0027] The beneficial effects of such a configuration are as follows: the utility model has a heat-insulating structure, that is, a vacuum jacket is connected to the outside of the valve body to form a vacuum state between the vacuum jacket and the valve body, thereby minimizing the heat exchange between the outer wall of the valve and the air, substantially reducing heat loss and shortening the cooling time, and being able to stably and low-temperature transport liquid hydrogen medium; the vacuum jacket adopts a separate vacuuming form, and by removing the first screw plugs on both sides, it can be connected to the flow channel vacuum pipeline, and can be transformed into a form of vacuuming together with the pipeline, thereby meeting a variety of needs.

[0028] Further, a support frame 11 is provided in the vacuum chamber 9 , and the support frame 11 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the valve body 1 .

One end of the bellows 25 extends between the valve cover 5 and the valve body 1 to form a clamping connection, and the other end is fixedly connected to the valve stem 3.

[0039] The beneficial effects of such arrangement are as follows: good sealing between the valve stem and the valve cover is ensured by sequentially installing the second disc spring, sealing packing, packing sleeve and packing gland; the packing gland is threadedly connected to the valve cover through gland bolts; the valve stem and the valve cover are both provided with upper seals; the sealing packing can be replaced by unscrewing the gland bolts; the design for convenient maintenance enables the valve stem and valve disc to be removed from the valve body; the valve stem and valve disc can be disassembled and the sealing surface can be repaired without disturbing the vacuum environment; the sealing packing cooperates with the bellows to achieve double sealing to ensure zero leakage at the valve stem position.

[0040] It is further provided that a second screw plug 26 is provided at a position of the valve cover 5 corresponding to the valve stem 3 , communicating with the gap between the bellows 25 and the sealing packing 21 .

[0041] The beneficial effect of such arrangement is as follows: a second screw plug is arranged between the bellows and the sealing filler, and when the bellows is damaged and fails, the leakage of the bellows can be detected in time.
