AI Technical Summary
The existing ball valve seal ring is prone to wear during repeated rotation, resulting in the gradual deterioration of the sealing effect and the durability of long-term use cannot be guaranteed.
The elastic connection between the first sealing ring and the left housing is adopted, and the first sealing ring at the inlet end is combined with the first sealing ring at the outlet end of the second sealing ring, and the sealing ring at the outlet end is made by the force-receiving portion under the action of water pressure. The ring is close to the valve core to avoid over-squeezing and extend the service life of the sealing ring.
Effectively prevent the wear of the sealing ring, improve the sealing effect and durability, and ensure that the ball valve maintains good sealing performance during long-term use.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0023] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.
[0024] Reference Figure 1-5 , a ball valve with good durability, including a valve seat composed of a left shell 1 and a right shell 2, a valve core 3 is arranged in the valve seat, a valve stem 4 is arranged on the valve core 3, a handle 5 is fixed on the top of the valve stem 4, and a rectangular block 22 at the bottom of the handle 5 is located in a slide groove 21 on the valve core 3, a first sealing groove 6 is opened in the left shell 1, a first sealing ring 7 is arranged in the first sealing groove 6, the thickness of the first sealing groove 6 is greater than the first sealing ring 7, an elastic connection is formed between the first sealing ring 7 and the left shell 1, the left shell 1 is the outlet end, and the right shell 2 is the inlet end. When the ball valve is closed, the valve core 3 is pressed against the first sealing ring 7 under the action of water pressure. Since the first sealing ring 7 is elastically connected to the left shell 1, a good seal can be formed between the valve core 3 and the first sealing ring 7 without excessively squeezing the first sealing ring 7. When the ball valve is opened, the ball valve will not be seriously worn with the first sealing ring 7, thereby improving the durability of the first sealing ring 7.
[0025] Furthermore, a positioning groove 9 communicating with the first sealing groove 6 is provided in the left housing 1, and a circular ring 8 in contact with the first sealing ring 7 is provided in the positioning groove 9. A plurality of springs 10 distributed in an annular array are fixed to the side of the circular ring 8, and the ends thereof abut against the positioning groove 9. In this way, the elastic force of the spring 10 can act on the circular ring 8 and then on the first sealing ring 7, thereby forming an elastic connection between the first sealing ring 7 and the left housing 1.
[0026] Furthermore, a plurality of correcting rods 11 distributed in a circular array are fixed on the circular ring 8, and the spring 10 is sleeved on the correcting rods 11. The correcting rods 11 can correct the elastically moving spring 10 to prevent it from twisting and deforming.
[0027] Furthermore, a second sealing groove 12 is opened in the right shell 2, and a second sealing ring 13 is arranged in the second sealing groove 12. The second sealing ring 13 forms an initial seal at the inlet end, and cooperates with the second seal formed by the first sealing ring 7 at the outlet end, thereby improving the sealing effect of the ball valve.
[0028] Furthermore, the thickness of the second sealing ring 13 is smaller than that of the second sealing groove 12. The second sealing ring 13 is provided with a force-bearing portion 14 integrally formed therewith. The inner diameter of the force-bearing portion 14 is smaller than the caliber of the right shell body 2. When the ball valve is closed, the water pressure in the right shell body 2 will act on the force-bearing portion 14, so that the second sealing ring 13 is tightly attached to the valve core 3, thereby improving the sealing effect and preventing the valve core 3 from excessively squeezing the second sealing ring 13, thereby improving the durability of the second sealing ring 13.
[0029] Furthermore, a plurality of circular holes 15 are provided on the left shell body 1 and the right shell body 2, and a first bolt assembly 16 for fixing the left shell body 1 and the right shell body 2 together is inserted between two circular holes 15 of the same group, and a fourth sealing ring 24 is commonly provided in the fourth sealing groove 23 on the left shell body 1 and the right shell body 2, so that a seal can be formed between the left shell body 1 and the right shell body 2 through the fourth sealing ring 24.
[0030] Furthermore, an end cover 19 pressed on the valve stem 4 is fixed to the right housing 2 by a second bolt assembly 20, a third sealing groove 17 is provided on the valve stem 4 and the right housing 2, and a sealing ring 18 which is sleeved on the valve stem 4 is provided between the two third sealing grooves 17, so that the gap between the valve stem 4 and the right housing 2 can be sealed by the sealing ring 18.
[0031] Working principle: the left housing 1 is the outlet end, and the right housing 2 is the inlet end. When the ball valve is closed, the valve core 3 is pressed against the first sealing ring 7 under the action of water pressure. Since the first sealing ring 7 and the left housing 1 are elastically connected, a good seal can be formed between the valve core 3 and the first sealing ring 7 without excessively squeezing the first sealing ring 7. When the ball valve is opened, the ball valve and the first sealing ring 7 will not be seriously worn.
[0032] When the ball valve is closed, the water pressure in the right housing 2 acts on the force-bearing portion 14 , so that the second sealing ring 13 is pressed tightly against the valve core 3 , thereby improving the sealing effect and preventing the valve core 3 from over-extruding the second sealing ring 13 .
