Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of vacuum ball valves, in particular to a vacuum ball valve with positive and negative pressure bidirectional sealing. Background Art

[0002] The main difference between vacuum ball valves and ordinary ball valves lies in the design structure, purpose, performance and scope of application. Its essence is still a pipeline structure that controls the flow of fluid, and its main structure is composed of valve stem, valve core and outer shell. It should be noted that the sealing performance of vacuum ball valve is one of the key factors affecting the use effect.

[0003] Conventional sealing methods in vacuum ball valves are mainly based on sealing rings, but it needs to be further explained that: especially in the process of regulating flow, the fluid in the channels on both sides of the valve core will generate obvious pressure in a short period of time, and the direction of the pressure difference will be different. For example, the pressure on the left side is greater than the pressure on the right side, resulting in a positive pressure difference; the pressure on the left side is less than the pressure on the right side, resulting in a negative pressure difference. If a traditional sealing ring structure is used, it is difficult to apply the above pressure difference.

[0004] This application proposes a solution to this problem. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model aims to provide a vacuum ball valve with positive and negative pressure bidirectional sealing, aiming at the current vacuum ball valve having opposite directions or different pressure differences during use, and the corresponding valve core sealing structure is difficult to meet the above use requirements.

[0006] The purpose of the utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions: a positive and negative pressure bidirectional sealed vacuum ball valve, comprising a valve body and a valve ball, the valve ball is located in a ball cavity inside the valve body, side directional sleeves are installed at both ends of the ball cavity inside the valve body corresponding to the valve ball, directional sealing rings are installed at the positions of the side directional sleeves corresponding to the valve ball, and a hollow opening cavity is opened in the side directional sleeve;

[0007] A swivel and a return ring are respectively provided at two ends of the valve body corresponding to the valve ball. The swivel is rotatably connected in the valve body, the return ring is installed in the side directional sleeve, and a slip ring is installed in the return ring. A left pressure ring corresponding to the directional sealing ring is installed at one end of the swivel corresponding to the valve ball.

[0008] It is further configured as follows: the left pressure ring and the return ring are arranged along the direction from the water inlet end to the water outlet end of the valve body.

[0009] It is further configured as follows: a blade turbine is installed at the center point of the inner part of the rotating ring.

[0010] It is further configured as follows: a plurality of pressurizing protrusions are installed on the inner wall of the left pressure ring close to the return ring sheet, and the inner wall curvature of the left pressure ring is equal to the outer wall curvature of the directional sealing ring sheet at the corresponding position.

[0011] It is further configured as follows: the return ring is in a downwardly inclined arc shape from the water inlet end to the water outlet end of the valve body, the slip flow ring is installed at the lower side of the return ring, and one end of the slip flow ring extends to the open cavity at the corresponding position.

[0012] It is further configured that: the slipstream ring sheet is in an upwardly curved arc shape along the direction from the water outlet end to the water inlet end of the valve body.

[0013] The utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. The overall structure is based on the sealing structure adopted in the current ball valve and the directional sealing ring. The left pressure ring and the return ring are respectively arranged at the two directional positions in the corresponding fluid flow process. On the basis of the directional sealing ring completing the sealing operation of the valve ball, the pressure difference generated instantly when the fluid switches the flow state is used to perform secondary reinforcement and pressurization on the directional sealing ring. Taking the left pressure ring as an example, the fluid is driven to convert through the blade turbine to perform variable speed rotation, so as to cooperate with the left pressure ring to perform variable speed rotation, and the directional sealing ring at the corresponding position is multi-directionally extruded and reinforced by itself and the pressurized protrusion, so as to improve the sealing performance at the moment of fluid switching;

[0015] 2. The explanation using the reflux ring is that the reflux ring will not actively interfere with the flow state of the fluid. Instead, when the fluid switches its flow state, the fluid in this area will form a reverse pressure. Based on the reverse pressure, the reverse pressure is transmitted to the slip flow ring through the reflux ring, further improving the sealing performance of the directional sealing ring at the corresponding position.

[0023] The technical solution of the utility model will be described clearly and completely in conjunction with the embodiments below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0024] Embodiment 1

[0025] At the moment when the fluid in the vacuum ball valve switches its flow state, the fluid in the channels on both sides of the valve core generates obvious pressure in a short time, and the direction of the pressure difference is different. For example, the pressure on the left side is greater than the pressure on the right side, resulting in a positive pressure difference; the pressure on the left side is less than the pressure on the right side, resulting in a negative pressure difference. If the traditional sealing ring structure is used, it is difficult to apply the above pressure difference. The following technical solutions are proposed:

[0026] Reference Figures 1 to 5 In this embodiment, a positive and negative pressure bidirectional sealed vacuum ball valve comprises a valve body 1 and a valve ball 2. The valve ball 2 is located in a ball cavity inside the valve body 1. Side directional sleeves 3 are installed at both ends of the ball cavity inside the valve body 1 corresponding to the valve ball 2. A directional sealing ring sheet 10 is installed at the position of the side directional sleeve 3 corresponding to the valve ball 2. A hollow opening cavity 8 is opened in the side directional sleeve 3.

[0027] A swivel 4 and a return ring piece 9 are respectively provided at the two ends of the valve body 1 corresponding to the valve ball 2. The swivel 4 is rotatably connected in the valve body 1. The return ring piece 9 is installed in the side directional sleeve 3, and a slip ring piece 7 is installed in the return ring piece 9. A left pressure ring 6 corresponding to the directional sealing ring piece 10 is installed at one end of the swivel 4 corresponding to the valve ball 2. The left pressure ring 6 and the return ring piece 9 are arranged along the direction from the water inlet end to the water outlet end of the valve body 1. A blade turbine 5 is installed at the center point of the inner part of the swivel 4. A plurality of pressurizing protrusions 11 are installed on the inner wall of the left pressure ring 6 close to the return ring piece 9, and the inner wall curvature of the left pressure ring 6 is equal to the outer wall curvature of the directional sealing ring piece 10 at the corresponding position.

[0028] Technical principle: First, explain the pressure difference generated during the use of the vacuum ball valve: refer to Figure 4 When the fluid flows from left to right and the valve ball 2 switches its angle, the flow rate / flow velocity of the fluid changes instantly. For example, when the flow rate is adjusted from a small flow rate to a large flow rate, a large pressure is instantly generated at the left side of the valve ball 2; conversely, when the flow rate is adjusted from a large flow rate to a small flow rate, a reverse pressure is instantly generated at the right side of the valve ball 2.

[0029] Refer to this Figure 5 To explain, during the stable operation of the valve body 1, the swivel ring 4 therein maintains continuous rotation. During this process, the left pressure ring 6 applies stable pressure on the directional sealing ring piece 10, thereby preliminarily reinforcing and encrypting the directional sealing ring piece 10 on this basis. However, when the fluid flow rate increases, the instantaneous pressure directly acts on the blade turbine 5, accelerating the rotation speed of the left pressure ring 6. During this process, the left pressure ring 6 performs secondary reinforcement and encryption on the directional sealing ring piece 10; and on an indirect basis, the fluid always fills the open cavity 8 in the left position, so that the pressure of the fluid itself can also be used to reinforce and pressurize the directional sealing ring piece 10, thereby completing the sealing performance of the valve ball 2 in the left position.

[0030] Embodiment 2

[0031] This embodiment is to explain the reflux ring in the first embodiment:

[0032] The return ring piece 9 is in a downward inclined arc shape along the direction from the water inlet end to the water outlet end of the valve body 1, and the slip flow ring piece 7 is installed at the lower side of the return ring piece 9, and one end of the slip flow ring piece 7 extends to the open cavity 8 at the corresponding position, and the slip flow ring piece 7 is in an upward curved arc shape along the direction from the water outlet end to the water inlet end of the valve body 1.

[0033] Technical principle: In the first embodiment, when the fluid always flows from left to right, refer to Figure 4For example, the return ring piece 9 is always bent upward by the action of the fluid, and the slip ring piece 7 is opened to continue to fill the open cavity 8 to the right with the fluid;

[0034] However, in the process of adjusting from a large flow rate to a small flow rate, the fluid will rebound to the right. During this process, the fluid forces the return ring 9 to deform from top to bottom. During this process, the return ring 9 will also indirectly force the slipstream ring 7 to continue to deform, thereby performing secondary reinforcement and encryption on the directional sealing ring 10 in the opening cavity 8 on the right side.

[0035] In summary: based on the conventional sealing structure, a two-way pressure-encrypted reinforcement sealing method is adopted. At the moment of switching the fluid flow state, the pressure change generated instantly by the fluid is used to perform secondary reinforcement on the directional sealing ring in the corresponding position. In this way, the pressure changes under different usage conditions are met and the overall sealing performance is improved.
