Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of control valves, and in particular to ultra-low temperature gate valves. Background Art

[0002] The gate valve is a gate plate of an opening and closing part. The movement direction of the gate plate is perpendicular to the direction of the fluid. The gate valve can only be fully opened and fully closed, and cannot be adjusted or throttled. The gate valve is sealed by the contact between the valve seat and the gate plate. Usually, the sealing surface will be welded with metal materials to increase wear resistance, such as 1Cr13, STL6, stainless steel, etc. The gate plate has a rigid gate plate and an elastic gate plate. According to the different gate plates, the gate valve is divided into a rigid gate valve and an elastic gate valve.

[0003] When the gate valve is used in ultra-low temperature scenarios, since the medium is ultra-low temperature, in order to facilitate the insulation of the medium, insulation materials will be wrapped on the transportation pipeline and the gate valve to achieve insulation of the medium. However, in order to adjust the gate valve, the handwheel part needs to be exposed. Due to the good thermal conductivity of steel, water in the air will condense and then flow into the insulation material, causing the insulation material to fail. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to improve the thermal insulation effect of the gate valve on the internal medium, the present application provides an ultra-low temperature gate valve.

[0005] The ultra-low temperature gate valve provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] The ultra-low temperature gate valve comprises a valve body, a gate plate slidably arranged on the valve body, a valve seat arranged on the valve body and used to cooperate with the gate plate to seal the gate valve, a valve stem rotatably arranged on the valve body and used to drive the gate plate to move, and a hand wheel arranged on the valve stem and used to drive the valve stem to rotate. The valve body is provided with a heat preservation mechanism for heat preservation of the gate valve, and the heat preservation mechanism comprises:

[0007] A thermal insulation layer, which is wrapped around the valve body and used to seal and insulate the valve body;

[0008] An isolation component is arranged on the valve body and located above the insulation layer. The isolation component is used to separate the uninsulated part from the insulation part and to isolate the condensed water generated above the isolation component.

[0009] By adopting the above technical scheme, the valve seat installed on the valve body cooperates with the gate plate, and at the same time the handwheel drives the valve stem to rotate and drives the gate plate to slide, so as to realize the opening or closing of the valve body, and the valve body is wrapped and insulated by the insulation layer, so that the valve body and the internal medium are isolated from the outside air, and the accumulated water above the isolation component is blocked and discharged in time by the isolation component, which reduces the probability of condensation water penetrating into the insulation layer, so that the insulation layer always has a good insulation effect, thereby improving the insulation effect of the gate valve on the internal medium.

[0010] Further, the isolation component comprises:

[0011] An isolation disc, which is arranged on the outer side wall of the valve body and is used to isolate condensed water generated in the upper part of the isolation;

[0012] A water guide pipe is arranged on the isolation disk and is used to discharge the accumulated water on the isolation disk out of the valve body.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the isolation disk blocks the accumulated water above the isolation disk and discharges it in time through the water pipe, reducing the probability of condensed water penetrating into the insulation layer, so that the insulation layer always has a good insulation effect, thereby improving the insulation effect of the gate valve on the internal medium.

[0014] Furthermore, a water collecting trough is provided on the isolation tray, and the water collecting trough is used to collect the accumulated water on the isolation tray. The water guide pipe is arranged at the lowest point of the water collecting trough and discharges the accumulated water in the isolation tray.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the water collection tank collects the accumulated water on the isolation tray to one place and discharges it through the water pipe, so that the accumulated water on the isolation tray is discharged in time, reducing the probability of condensed water penetrating into the insulation layer.

[0016] Furthermore, the isolation disk is made of a plastic material with poor thermal conductivity.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the probability of the isolation disk condensing the water in the control is reduced, and the probability of water accumulation at the bottom of the isolation disk dripping onto the insulation layer is reduced.

[0018] Furthermore, the thermal insulation layer is composed of a thermal insulation material with good thermal insulation performance, and a waterproof layer is arranged on the thermal insulation layer to prevent the entry of accumulated water.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, thermal insulation material with good thermal insulation performance is wrapped on the valve body to form an insulation layer, so that the valve body is isolated from the outside air, so that the temperature in the insulation layer remains relatively constant, and the waterproof layer is formed by wrapping a plastic film with waterproof function on the insulation layer, so that the accumulated water dripping on the waterproof layer cannot enter the insulation layer, reducing the probability of accumulated water entering the insulation layer.

[0020] Furthermore, the valve body is provided with a valve cover for sealing the top of the valve body, and the valve cover and the valve body are connected to each other through a connecting assembly, and the connecting assembly includes:

[0021] A sealing gasket block, wherein the sealing gasket block is arranged on the valve body;

[0022] A stud bolt, which is arranged on the valve body and passes through the valve cover;

[0023] A fixing nut is threadedly connected to the stud and presses the valve cover against the sealing gasket.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, the sealing gasket is fixedly installed on the top of the valve body, and the valve cover is fixedly installed on the end of the sealing gasket away from the valve body; the stud passes through the valve cover and fixes the valve cover to the sealing gasket through the fixing nut, so that the connection between the valve body and the valve cover is tighter.

[0025] Furthermore, the sealing gasket is made of rubber material, and is used to enhance the sealing performance of the valve body and the valve cover and reduce the temperature conduction between the valve body and the valve cover.

[0026] By adopting the above technical solution, the rubber has good compression resilience, so that the sealing between the valve body and the valve cover is good. At the same time, the rubber material has low thermal conductivity, thereby reducing the temperature conduction between the valve body and the valve cover.

[0027] Furthermore, the gate plate is rotatably connected to the valve stem, and the width of the gate plate becomes narrower as it approaches the bottom of the valve body.

[0028] By adopting the above technical solution, due to the ultra-low temperature environment, the gate plate is easy to stick and solidify on the bottom of the valve seat. The closer the gate plate is to the bottom of the valve body, the narrower the width is, making it easier for the valve body to move away from the bottom of the valve body to open the channel.

[0029] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0030] The valve body and part of the valve cover are wrapped and insulated by the insulation layer, so that the valve body and the internal medium are isolated from the outside air. The sealing gasket further prevents the temperature conduction from the valve body to the valve cover. The accumulated water above the isolation plate is blocked by the isolation plate and discharged in time through the water pipe. At the same time, the waterproof layer prevents the accumulated water from entering the insulation layer, reducing the probability of condensed water penetrating into the insulation layer, so that the insulation layer always has a good insulation effect, thereby improving the insulation effect of the gate valve on the internal medium.
