[0002] With the rapid development of modern oil production, oil refining, and petrochemical industries, enterprises are gradually transitioning to continuous and large-scale operations, and production processes are also developing towards high temperature, high pressure, and multiple material reaction conditions. Continuous production requires equipment systems to operate safely, stably, and normally for a long time. In order to ensure the normal operation of the pipeline system, a large number of valves will be installed in the pipelines of the pipeline system. After long-term use, valves will malfunction. Therefore, in order to ensure the safe operation of the pipeline system, it is necessary to replace the damaged valves.

[0003] There are two existing maintenance and replacement methods. One is to cut off the flow of pipeline medium from the source and then perform maintenance and replacement, but this maintenance method is time-consuming and has a large impact range; the second is to block the position where the valve needs to be replaced. This maintenance method has a small impact range, but the existing blocking methods mostly use airbag blocking, that is, putting the airbag into the pipeline, and then using an inflation device to inflate the airbag, so that the airbag will fit tightly with the inner wall of the pipeline after expansion to block the medium in the pipeline; although this has a good sealing effect, it requires the use of an inflation device for inflation, which is more troublesome and inconvenient to carry.

For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood by specific circumstances.

[0029] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0030] Example 1: Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, a temporary plugging and pressure-changing valve structure comprises a connecting seat 1, a fixed tube 2 is arranged on the connecting seat 1, a mounting plate 4 is sleeved on the fixed tube 2, a limit rod 5 is slidably penetrated on the mounting plate 4, a mounting frame 6 is fixedly arranged at one end of the limit rod 5, a first connecting rod 7 and a second connecting rod 8 are rotatably arranged on the mounting frame 6, a connecting frame 11 is rotatably arranged at the free ends of the first connecting rod 7 and the second connecting rod 8, a sealing assembly is fixedly arranged on the connecting frame 11, a transmission assembly is also arranged between the mounting frame 6 and the connecting frame 11, the output end of the transmission assembly is connected to the sealing assembly, a sliding rod 3 is arranged in the fixed tube 2, one end of the sliding rod 3 extends from the fixed tube 2 and is inserted into the mounting frame 6, and a driving gear 18 is fixedly arranged, and the driving gear 18 is connected to the input end of the transmission assembly.

[0031] Specifically, the sealing assembly includes a push plate 14, a pressure plate 15 and a sealing rubber tube 16. The sealing rubber tube 16 is located between the push plate 14 and the pressure plate 15, and the push plate 14 is fixedly connected to the connecting frame 11. When the pressure plate 15 and the push plate 14 are relatively close to each other, the sealing rubber tube 16 will be squeezed out radially. Such an arrangement can achieve sealing by squeezing the sealing rubber tube 16 to fit against the inner wall of the pipe.

[0032] Specifically, the transmission assembly includes a driven gear 19, a transmission shaft 17, a transmission rod 9, a universal joint 10, a screw 12 and a threaded tube 13. The universal joint 10 is fixedly arranged at both ends of the transmission rod 9, and the threaded tube 13 is fixedly arranged on the pressure plate 15. One end of the screw 12 is connected to the universal joint 10 at one end of the transmission rod 9, and the other end passes through the push plate 14 and is inserted into the threaded tube 13. The transmission shaft 17 is rotatably arranged on the mounting frame 6, and one end is fixedly connected to the driven gear 19, and the other end is connected to the universal joint 10 at the other end of the transmission rod 9. Such an arrangement can realize the change of the rotation direction through the gear group, and at the same time, the transmission rod 9 can drive the sealing assembly to realize extrusion sealing.

[0033] Specifically, the other end of the slide rod 3 extends out from the other end of the fixed tube 2 and is fixedly provided with a hand wheel 21 . This arrangement facilitates controlling the rotation of the driving gear 18 through the hand wheel 21 .

[0034] Specifically, there are two slide rods 3 , which are symmetrically arranged along the fixed tube 2 . Such an arrangement can improve the strength and prevent the limiting rod 5 from being twisted.

[0035] Specifically, a tension spring 20 is further provided between the connecting frame 11 and the mounting frame 6 , and such a configuration can ensure that the sealing plug can be retracted from the extended state.

[0036] The working process of this embodiment is as follows: when in use, the sealing plug is inserted into the pipeline from the flange joint that has been welded to the pipeline, and then the connecting seat 1 is fixed to the welded flange joint by bolts, and then the hand wheel 21 is pushed downward. When the sealing plug contacts the inner wall of the pipeline, the two sealing plugs will slide toward each other. During the sliding, the first connecting rod 7 and the second connecting rod 8 will rotate, and the tension spring 20 will also be stretched.

[0037] At the same time, the limit rod 5 will slide relative to the mounting plate 4, and when the two sealing plugs move toward each other on both sides and unfold, the hand wheel 21 will be turned. After the hand wheel 21 is turned, it will drive the slide rod 3 to rotate, and after the slide rod 3 is rotated, it will drive the driving gear 18 to rotate, and after the driving gear 18 is rotated, it will drive the driven gear 19 to rotate. After the driven gear 19 rotates, the transmission shaft 17 will rotate at the same time, and the rotation will be transmitted to the threaded rod through the universal joint 10 and the transmission rod 9. After the threaded rod rotates, it will drive the pressure plate 15 to move toward the push plate 14 with the cooperation of the threaded tube 13, and the pressure plate 15 will squeeze the sealing rubber tube 16 when moving toward the push plate 14, so that the sealing rubber tube 16 begins to expand outward, and the expanded sealing rubber tube 16 will contact the inner wall of the pipeline to achieve sealing of the pipeline.

[0038] After the valve replacement is completed, the hand wheel 21 is rotated in the opposite direction. When the hand wheel 21 rotates in the opposite direction, the driving gear 18 is driven to rotate in the opposite direction through the slide rod 3. When the driving gear 18 rotates in the opposite direction, it drives the meshing driven gear 19 to rotate in the opposite direction. When the driven gear 19 rotates in the opposite direction, it pushes the pressure plate 15 to move away from the push plate 14 through the transmission rod 9. When the pressure plate 15 is away from the push plate 14, the sealing rubber tube 16 will shrink inward. The shrunk sealing rubber tube 16 will be separated from the inner wall of the sealing tube. Then, the slide rod 3 is pulled upward by the hand wheel 21. When the slide rod 3 moves upward, it will drive the mounting frame 6 to move upward, so that the two sealing plugs are relatively close. Finally, the bolts are removed and the connecting seat 1 is removed from the connecting flange.

[0039] In this embodiment, the limit rod 5 cooperates with the mounting plate 4 to ensure that the mounting frame 6 will not rotate when the driving gear 18 drives the driven gear 19 to rotate. At the same time, in order to avoid distortion when the limit rod 5 is extended too long, the mounting plate 4 can be replaced by sliding tubes welded on both sides of the fixed tube 2, so that the limit rod 5 can be inserted into the sliding tube. When the sliding rod 3 slides in the fixed tube 2, the limit rod 5 can also slide in the sliding tube. Since the limit rod 5 always remains coaxial with the limit rod 5 when sliding in the sliding tube, it can largely avoid distortion when the limit rod 5 is extended too long.

[0040] At the same time, in order to ensure that the zero sealing plug can be extended after being inserted into the pipeline, the angle between the axis of the first connecting rod 7 and the second connecting rod 8 and the horizontal plane does not exceed ninety degrees after the sealing plug is contracted, and the two sealing plugs can enhance the sealing effect.

[0041] The above is a detailed description of an embodiment of the utility model, but the content is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model and cannot be considered to limit the scope of implementation of the utility model. All equivalent changes and improvements made within the scope of application of the utility model should still fall within the scope of the patent coverage of the utility model.
