Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model is applicable to but not limited to the technical field of hydraulic inlet and outlet of pumps such as mud pumps, oil drilling pumps, marine pumps, etc., and in particular relates to a valve disc of a mud pump. Background Art
[0002] A part of the inlet and outlet valves of the hydraulic end of the mud pump is called a valve disc. The valve disc and the valve seat are installed together in a cavity of the hydraulic end, arranged in pairs, and opened and closed under the drive of the power end piston to meet the inlet and outlet of the fluid.
[0003] The sealing effect of the valve disc and the valve seat when closed causes a high pressure difference between the inside and outside of the hydraulic end, and even has to withstand a pressure difference of up to 51.7MPa. The valve disc is installed at the hydraulic end and used in conjunction with the valve seat installed at the hydraulic end to control the fluid entering or exiting the cavity formed by the hydraulic end. The movement of the valve disc is the separation and contact between the valve seat and the valve seat to complete the control of the fluid. When the valve disc is separated from the valve seat, the fluid enters or exits, and at this time it is subjected to high-speed scouring, corrosion, abrasion, cavitation and other destructive effects of the fluid. When the valve disc is in close contact with the valve seat, it blocks the fluid from entering or exiting. At this time, the contact surface is subjected to the huge stress, corrosion and other destructive effects of the fluid pressure difference formed inside and outside the hydraulic end. The fluid that the valve disc contacts is a harsh working condition of high temperature, high pressure, high speed, strong corrosiveness, containing high-hardness particles, moisture, easy crystallization, easy bonding, easy flash evaporation and other characteristics of gas, liquid and solid coexistence. The use conditions of the valve disc are extremely harsh, and the life of maintaining the function is very short. Some existing products are only more than 100 hours. The existing product combination structure is a soft seal type, as shown in 1, a valve disc body 1, a sealing rubber ring 2, and a nut 3.
[0004] The main problems of existing products:
[0005] 1. Products made of highly flexible materials have low hardness, poor wear and erosion resistance, and short service life.
[0006] Second, the size and shape of the existing hard seal overall structure change greatly, with the axial diameter changing by 4-8 times, making it difficult to manufacture and of poor quality, resulting in a short service life.
[0007] 3. Existing products with soft sealing structures of metal and rubber combination structures have problems such as poor rubber resistance to temperature, aging, compression, erosion and wear, and short service life. Summary of the invention

[0010] More preferably, the boss structure transitions to the arc surface of the lower guide portion of the valve disc shaft 5 .

[0029] The utility model is applied to the one-way valve of the fluid suction port and discharge port of the hydraulic end of various mud pumps, oil drilling pumps, marine pumps, etc., and is used in conjunction with the valve seat as one of the opening and closing parts to complete the function of fluid transportation.
[0030] On the one hand, it meets the requirements of wear resistance, erosion resistance, high hardness and high strength performance, and on the other hand, it meets the requirements of high flexibility and high strength, improves the ability to adapt to various harsh working conditions, extends the service life of the product, and completely replaces the existing integral structure hard sealing valve disc and combined structure soft sealing valve disc.
[0031] like Figure 2 As shown, a valve disc of a mud pump. It includes a valve disc body 1, a valve disc shaft 5, and a fastening nut 4; a hole-shaped structure matching the valve disc shaft 5 is provided in the center of the valve disc body 1, and the valve disc shaft 5 passes through the hole-shaped structure of the valve disc body 1. The part where the valve disc shaft 5 is connected to the valve disc body 1 has a boss structure with a diameter larger than the valve disc shaft 5, and the boss structure is embedded in the lower part of the valve disc body 1. A fastening nut 4 is installed on the valve disc shaft 5 at the upper part of the valve disc body 1. The valve disc shaft 5 is fixedly connected to the valve disc body 1 through the boss structure embedded in the lower part of the valve disc body 1 and the fastening nut 4, so as to form a firm and reliable whole. After machining, a valve disc is formed to meet the requirements of reliable sealing, strong strength, and perfect performance. Connection methods such as threaded connection, welding, expansion connection, and bonding can be used.
[0032] The material of the valve disc body 1 can be selected from alloy steel, stainless steel, cast iron, cobalt-based alloy, ceramic and other materials, but not limited to the above materials. The molding method can be selected from casting, forging, welding, machining and other processing methods, but not limited to the above molding and processing methods. After appropriate heat treatment process, the product can achieve the required wear resistance, corrosion resistance, impact resistance, erosion resistance, cavitation resistance, high hardness, high strength and other properties.
[0033] The nut 4 serves to tighten the connection.
