Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of fully welded ball valves, in particular to a welding tool for a central cavity weld of a small-caliber fully welded ball valve. Background Art
[0002] Compared with bolted ball valves, fully welded ball valves have fewer external leakage points, greatly reducing the risk of valve leakage, so they are widely used in long-distance pipelines.
[0003] However, in the actual production process, welding will generate a lot of heat, forming an instantaneous high temperature environment. Under the influence of high temperature environment, soft sealing materials face rapid aging or even damage, and metal welding deformation will be caused, further affecting the valve sealing performance. Especially for small-caliber fully welded ball valves, because of their small valve cavity, the temperature will rise rapidly, which brings great challenges to welding.
[0004] The existing small-caliber fully welded ball valve adopts the welding process of filling the middle cavity with water in the fully closed state. After a short welding time, the valve needs to be immediately immersed in water for cooling. Because the valve specifications are small and the volume of the middle cavity is relatively small, the temperature of the valve cavity will rise rapidly in a short welding time. In order to protect the soft sealing material and prevent excessive metal welding deformation, the valve must be immersed in water for cooling. After it is completely cooled, the valve is taken out and blown dry before continuing welding. In this way, the soft sealing material cannot be protected in time at the moment of temperature rise. At the same time, due to the high frequency of water cooling turnover of the whole machine, the valve welding efficiency is greatly reduced. Utility Model Content

Obviously, the described embodiment is a part of the embodiment of the utility model, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiment 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.
[0019] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection" and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0020] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 2 The utility model provides a small-caliber fully welded ball valve cavity weld welding tool, which includes a water reservoir 2, a fixture 12, a submersible pump 3 and a water pipe, and also includes a host computer, which is electrically connected to the components in the welding tool to control the use of the entire welding tool.
[0021] Specifically, the water reservoir 2 stores cooling water for circulating cooling. The water pipe includes an inlet pipe, an outlet and a drain pipe for conducting cooling water.
[0022] The submersible pump 3 is arranged in the water reservoir 2 to provide power for water circulation. The cooling water outlet of the submersible pump 3 is connected with a water inlet pipe. In the present embodiment, the water inlet pipe includes a first water inlet pipe 4, a second water inlet pipe 5 and a third water inlet pipe 6. The three water inlet pipes are interconnected through a three-way valve 15. The three-way valve 15 can adjust the conductance of the first water inlet pipe 4, the second water inlet pipe 5 and the third water inlet pipe 6.
[0023] Among them, one end of the first water inlet pipe 4 is connected to the drain port of the submersible pump 3, and the other end is connected to the three-way valve 15, one end of the second water inlet pipe 5 is connected to the water inlet of the fully welded ball valve body to be welded (hereinafter referred to as the valve body to be welded 1), and the other end is connected to the three-way valve 15, one end of the third water pipe is connected to the water inlet of the wastewater tank 13, and the other end is connected to the three-way valve 15. And when working, the ball valve to be welded is in a normally open state.
[0024] Among them, the ball valve to be welded includes a water inlet, a water outlet and a sewage outlet, wherein the water inlet is connected to one end of the second water inlet pipe 5, the water outlet is connected to one end of the water outlet pipe 7, and the other end of the water outlet pipe 7 extends into the water reservoir 2, and the sewage outlet is connected to one end of the drain pipe 8, and the other end of the drain pipe 8 extends into the water reservoir 2.
[0025] The clamp 12 is used to clamp the valve body 1 to be welded, and the clamp 12 can be fixedly placed on the ground or on a workbench.
[0026] The arrow in the figure represents the direction of cooling water flow. In specific operation, when the valve body 1 to be welded needs to be welded, the valve body 1 to be welded is first clamped by the clamp 12, and then a certain amount of cooling water is stored in the water reservoir 2. At the same time, the three-way valve 15 is set to make the first water inlet pipe 4 and the second water inlet pipe 5 conductive, so that the cooling water flows to the valve body 1 to be welded. The submersible pump 3 is arranged in the water reservoir 2 to provide power for water circulation. After the submersible pump 3 is turned on, the cooling water in the water reservoir 2 passes through the first water inlet pipe 4 and the three-way valve 15. The cooling water flows through the three-way valve 15 and the second water inlet pipe 5 into the valve body 1 to be welded, so that the valve body 1 to be welded can be cooled in real time during welding. At the same time, since the valve body 1 to be welded is in a normally open state, the cooling water flows through the sewage outlet and the drain pipe 8, the water outlet and the outlet pipe 7 and then returns to the water reservoir 2, thereby completing the circulating cooling process. When the water in the water reservoir 2 needs to be replaced, the three-way valve 15 is adjusted to make the first water inlet pipe 4 and the third water inlet pipe 6 connected, so that the water in the water reservoir 2 flows into the wastewater tank 13 for treatment.
[0027] Among them, the wastewater tank 13 includes a wastewater tank 13 water inlet and a wastewater tank 13 water outlet, wherein the wastewater tank 13 water inlet is connected to the third water inlet pipe 6, and the wastewater tank 13 water outlet is connected to one end of the wastewater pipe 14, and the wastewater in the wastewater tank 13 is discharged through the wastewater pipe 14 for subsequent treatment, which is not recorded in detail in this application.
[0028] At the same time, due to the different sizes of the valve body 1 to be welded, the water pipe may not match the valve body 1 to be welded. Therefore, the present embodiment also includes a connecting tool, which includes a left tool 9, a right tool 10 and a lower tool 11. In the present embodiment, the left tool 9, the right tool 10 and the lower tool 11 are all flanges. First, according to the sizes of the water inlet, the water outlet and the sewage outlet of the valve body 1 to be welded, a flange of a suitable size is selected, and the left tool 9 is coaxially fixedly connected to the water inlet, the right tool 10 is coaxially fixedly connected to the water outlet, and the lower tool 11 is coaxially fixedly connected to the sewage outlet. Then, the left tool 9 is connected to the water inlet pipe, the right tool 10 is connected to the water outlet pipe 7, and the lower tool 11 is connected to one end of the drain pipe 8, thereby facilitating the connection between the water pipe and the valve body 1 to be welded. At the same time, a sealing ring is arranged between the tool and the valve body 1 to be welded, which also ensures the sealing of the connection. The flange installation also ensures the quickness of installation.
[0029] In this embodiment, two clamps 12 are provided, which clamp the water inlet and the water outlet of the valve body 1 to be welded from both sides respectively. The clamps 12 can be fixedly placed on the ground or on a workbench, and can be set at a suitable position according to actual needs.
[0030] The clamp 12 includes a base 16, on which a lower pressing block 17 is arranged. The lower pressing block 17 is fixedly arranged on the base 16 by a conventional fixing method of welding or bolt connection. The upper surface of the lower pressing block 17 is connected to the upper pressing block 19 through a plurality of electric telescopic rods 18. In this embodiment, four electric telescopic rods 18 are arranged, and the four electric telescopic rods 18 are arranged at the four corners of the lower pressing block 17. The telescopic movement of the electric telescopic rods 18 can drive the upper pressing block 19 to be pressed downward to clamp the valve body 1 to be welded.
[0031] The lower surface of the upper pressing block 19 and the upper surface of the lower pressing block 17 are both provided with an arc surface 20 to stably clamp the valve body 1 to be welded. At the same time, multiple rollers 21 are rolledly arranged in the arc surface 20. In this embodiment, three rollers 21 are provided, and parts of the multiple rollers 21 protrude from the arc surface 20.
[0032] During operation, when manual welding is performed, the upper pressing block 19 is pressed downward by extending and retracting the electric telescopic rod 18 until the lower pressing block 17 and the upper pressing block 19 can clamp the two ends of the valve body 1 to be welded, and the roller 21 is abutted against the outer wall of the valve body 1 to be welded, thereby limiting the position of the valve body 1 to be welded, and the valve body 1 to be welded can be specially clamped, which is convenient for subsequent processing of the valve body 1 to be welded.
[0033] The roller 21 is provided to rotate the clamped valve body 1 to be welded, and the positions of different surfaces of the valve body 1 to be welded can be processed by rotating the valve body 1 to be welded, so that the processing area is wide.
[0034] Embodiment 2:
[0035] See also Figure 3 In this embodiment, for automatic welding, a motor 22 is arranged above the upper pressing block 19, and the output shaft of the motor 22 passes through the upper pressing block 19 and is connected to a worm 23. At the same time, the end of one of the rollers 21 on the upper pressing block 19 is connected to a worm wheel 24, and the worm 23 is meshed with the worm wheel 24. At the same time, a pressure sensor (not shown in the figure) is arranged in the upper pressing block 19 to facilitate the compression of the upper pressing block 19 into place.
[0036] During specific operation, the output end of the motor 22 drives the worm 23 to rotate, and the rotation of the worm 23 drives the worm wheel 24 and further drives the roller 21 to rotate, so that the valve body 1 to be welded can be automatically rotated, ensuring the automation of the processing and improving the processing efficiency.
