Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of valves, in particular to a polytetrafluoroethylene valve seat structure. Background Art

[0002] With the use of butterfly valves in the control process, fire protection requirements have been put forward for high-performance butterfly valves that handle hydrocarbons and flammable media in the petroleum, petrochemical and chemical industries. Fire-proof high-performance butterfly valves are used in situations where reliable sealing is required in a fire environment. During normal operation, the elastic valve seat contacts the butterfly plate and maintains a seal. When a fire occurs, once the PTFE valve seat is burned or softened, the valve can still ensure the specified basic seal. However, PTFE material has cold flow properties and will undergo plastic deformation (creep) under long-term continuous loads. When the butterfly plate is pressed against the sealing surface for a long time and exceeds a specific compressive stress, the sealing valve seat will produce "cold flow" (creep) and lose elasticity, the sealing pressure ratio is reduced, and the valve sealing performance is reduced or even fails. Utility Model Content

[0003] 1. Technical issues to be resolved

[0004] The utility model aims to provide a polytetrafluoroethylene valve seat structure which can prevent fire and overcome the cold flow property of polytetrafluoroethylene.

[0005] (II) Technical solution

[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model is implemented through the following technical solutions: a fire-proof enhanced sealing type polytetrafluoroethylene valve seat structure, including a valve body, a butterfly plate, and a pressure plate. An "I"-shaped metal valve seat is arranged between the valve body and the pressure plate, a sealing member is arranged between the upper end of the metal valve seat and the valve body, a polytetrafluoroethylene valve seat with a spring on the back is embedded in the lower end of the metal valve seat, and the front of the polytetrafluoroethylene valve seat is in contact with the butterfly plate.

[0007] Preferably, both sides of the upper end of the metal valve seat abut against the valve body and the pressure plate, and there is a gap between the lower end and the valve body and the pressure plate.

[0008] Preferably, the sealing member is made of metal.

[0009] Preferably, the metal valve seat can be directly machined from the valve body.

[0010] (III) Beneficial effects

[0011] The utility model provides a fire-proof enhanced sealing type polytetrafluoroethylene valve seat structure. It has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] The utility model uses double sealing of metal valve seat and PTFE valve seat. When the PTFE valve seat is burned, the valve can still ensure basic sealing. A spring is arranged on the back of the PTFE valve seat, which can overcome the cold flow of PTFE material, so that the PTFE valve seat always maintains a long-term stable sealing pressure ratio with the butterfly plate, so that the butterfly valve can maintain a long-life two-way zero leakage performance. The gap between the "I"-shaped metal valve seat and the lower end and the valve body and the pressure plate can better conduct heat, and it is easy to expand when heated, so that the metal valve seat and the butterfly plate are easy to fit and seal. At room temperature, the metal valve seat is elastically deformed by the medium pressure, which is conducive to two-way sealing. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
