Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ball valves, in particular to a top-mounted ball valve structure. Background Art
[0002] At present, the commonly used top-entry pipeline ball valve structure is mostly assembled by pulling the valve seat away from the ball from both sides of the channel to achieve the ball top installation, which requires the manufacture of special tooling and is relatively cumbersome to assemble.
[0003] The existing threaded valve seat top-mounted structure has defects in its assembly method because the outer circle of the nut is a single force point when the pre-tightening nut is rotated to squeeze the spring seat. Therefore, it is laborious to assemble and the spring cannot be compressed to the designed size, resulting in insufficient pre-tightening pressure ratio and leakage of the medium. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the utility model provides a high-pressure, large-caliber, top-mounted ball valve, comprising a valve body, an inner base, a ball, a valve cover, a valve shaft, a valve seat, and a spring seat. The valve body is provided with an air inlet hole connected to the spring seat, and gas is communicated through the air inlet hole through a pipe joint. An O-ring and a graphite ring are provided on the contact surface between the valve seat and the valve body, and a rectangular through groove for installing a chain ring assembly is provided on the spring seat.
[0005] Preferably, the chain ring assembly includes an annular chain block, a connecting block, and a connecting pin.
[0006] Preferably, the O-ring is a rubber O-ring installed in the first, second and fourth annular grooves of the valve seat, and the graphite ring is a fireproof graphite ring installed in the third annular groove of the valve seat.
[0007] Preferably, the upper and lower parts of the sphere are processed into upper and lower frustums, respectively, and the upper and lower frustums are respectively abutted against the valve cover and the inner base through bearings.
[0008] Preferably, the upper circular platform is provided with evenly distributed pin holes, which are connected to the valve shaft via transmission pins.
[0009] Preferably, an anti-static device is provided on the bottom plane of the valve shaft. Beneficial Effects
[0010] The compression of the spring is adjusted by controlling the air source pressure, thereby realizing the disassembly and assembly of the chain ring components on both sides of the ball. The disassembly and assembly is more labor-saving and convenient, so that the valve has the function of online maintenance. The chain ring component supports the spring seat and compresses the spring to provide the preload pressure required by the valve, thereby improving the sealing reliability of the valve.
[0011] The upper and lower parts of the ball are processed into upper and lower cones respectively, which reduces its weight and thus reduces the torque required for valve opening and closing. The upper and lower cones are respectively connected to the valve cover and the inner base through bearings, ensuring that the axis of the ball does not deviate, so that the ball can stably contact the sealing rings on both sides, ensuring the reliability of the seal. The upper cone is provided with evenly distributed pin holes, which are connected to the valve shaft through transmission pins to achieve a seamless connection between the valve shaft and the ball, eliminating the gap of the traditional square tenon and flat key connection, thereby avoiding the phenomenon of the valve opening and closing not being in place due to the existence of gaps; at the same time, it also avoids the phenomenon of valve failure caused by wear between the matching parts due to inertia force when the valve is opened and closed quickly; BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
