[0002] The three-eccentric butterfly valve is a widely used industrial valve. It adopts a three-eccentric structure, so that it will not rub when it is switched, ensuring its reliability and durability. The three-eccentric butterfly valve has the advantages of simple structure, small size, light weight, strong corrosion resistance, excellent fluid control ability, and good sealing performance, making it widely used in chemical, pharmaceutical, metallurgical, electric power and other fields. However, its scope of application is relatively narrow. It cannot be used to treat high-concentration solid particle media, nor can it be used to treat media with high viscosity. In addition, it also has certain restrictions on the temperature and pressure of the medium. In addition, its reliability is still low, especially in the case of high temperature, high pressure and frequent switching, it is prone to failure, and there is a problem that it cannot achieve two-way zero leakage. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a high-performance valve that fundamentally changes the sealing structure. It is no longer a sealing pair compression seal, but a torsion seal, which mainly relies on the sealing specific pressure generated by the torsion extrusion of the sealing pair to achieve the sealing effect; in the sealing structure, it can be realized that when the medium flows forward or backward, the medium pressure can partially act on the seal, so that the valve can achieve two-way sealing during operation, high temperature and high pressure resistance, wear resistance, thereby extending the service life of the valve.

[0022] The number of the first pins 17 is plural.

[0023] The number of the second pins 31 is set to be plural.

[0024] The filler 20 is made of flexible graphite.

[0025] Among them, the materials of the first gasket 6, the second gasket 3 and the third gasket 11 are all 304 plus flexible graphite.

[0026] Four eccentric geometric shapes: 1. Axial eccentricity, the valve's rotation center deviates from the contact plane with the sealing surface, forming an eccentricity; 2. Radial eccentricity, the valve's rotation center and the pipeline center are not on the same center line; 3. Angular eccentricity, the valve sealing surface center and the pipeline center form an angle; 4. Angular eccentricity, the short side meshing line of the sealing surface and the center line of the flow channel form an angle. The fourth eccentricity is a variable arbitrary value, and its meshing angle is also a variable arbitrary value. According to the working conditions, various reasonable meshing angles can be designed in different environments to make the valve easier to open. The size of the second eccentricity can be designed to be smaller, from the previous eccentricity of more than ten millimeters to 2-3 millimeters, and the second eccentric moment is also greatly reduced, so the torque of the valve opening is also greatly reduced. The actuator equipped with the valve drive can be more energy-saving and economical. The price of the whole machine is much more economical than other eccentric butterfly valves under the same working conditions.

[0027] The sealing pair adopts metal-to-metal hard-to-hard sealing. The valve seat / sealing ring is made entirely of metal material, and the valve seat and sealing ring are hardened by heat treatment or surfacing. They have the advantages of anti-erosion, wear resistance, high temperature and high pressure resistance, and long service life. They solve the problems of the common three-eccentric butterfly valve, such as the multi-layer sealing structure is easy to erode and the service life is short, and the U-ring sealing structure butterfly valve, the elastic sealing ring is easy to fail, the sealing surface hardness is poor, and the design defects of easy wear are solved, thus avoiding the problems of butterfly valve internal leakage, short service life, and few applicable working conditions caused by this.

[0028] It implements two-way sealing and can withstand pressure in both positive and negative directions. No internal leakage occurs evenly when bearing pressure in either positive or negative directions, and meets the standard zero leakage requirements.

[0029] When the medium flows forward, the force applied by the driving device to the valve stem drives the valve plate, causing the valve plate sealing surface to generate a forced sealing force acting on the valve seat sealing surface. At the same time, the medium pressure generates an auxiliary sealing force, causing the valve plate sealing surface to press against the valve seat sealing surface to form a good seal.

[0030] When the medium flows in the opposite direction, the preload force and the piston effect of the medium push the valve seat sealing surface to the valve plate sealing surface to form a good seal.

[0031] In order to prevent the butterfly plate from deformation, valve stem dislocation and sealing surface biting caused by the influence of liquid pressure and temperature, two independent thrust rings are installed on the upper and lower sides of the butterfly plate respectively, so as to ensure the normal operation of the valve under any working conditions. In order to prevent sudden accidents caused by the valve stem breaking and flying out due to unknown reasons, independent valve stem anti-flying structures are designed at the inner and outer sides of the lower end of the valve.

[0032] During the design process, special consideration was given to the application issues in the field of regulation. The sealing principle of the four-eccentric butterfly valve was fully utilized to achieve an opening angle design with no dead zone, thus eliminating the common opening jump phenomenon when opening ordinary valves, and eliminating the unregulatory phenomenon caused by various unstable factors such as friction within the low opening range of the valve, that is, eliminating the dead zone (insensitive zone), which means that the valve can enter the adjustable area almost from 0 opening to 90 opening.

[0033] The valve adopts a detachable sealing sub-structure design. The valve plate sealing surface is independent of the valve plate, and the valve seat is independent of the valve body, so the valve plate sealing ring and the valve seat can be replaced separately. When the valve plate sealing ring or the valve seat seal is damaged, only the valve plate sealing ring or the valve seat needs to be replaced, which greatly reduces the maintenance cost, maintenance man-hours and maintenance difficulty.

[0034] The sealing pair fixing method adopts balanced distribution fixing, which not only has accurate positioning, but also makes each bolt bear force evenly, eliminating the loosening of the sealing pair caused by uneven force and avoiding valve leakage. In the problem of valve leakage, traditionally, people often focus on the leakage of the valve seat, that is, internal leakage, while ignoring the leakage of the packing part, that is, external leakage; in the packing seal and other structures to prevent external leakage, the dynamic load standard design is adopted, and the combined packing sealing system is adopted to ensure that the maximum leakage rate of the valve is ≤20PPM, so that the packing is permanently sealed and the maintenance-free time of the packing is extended. The packing is pressed with a combined elastic gasket to continuously provide the pre-tightening force required for packing pressing, avoid valve leakage, and make the valve safer to use, especially suitable for toxic and harmful media in the chemical industry.

[0035] During the opening and closing process of the butterfly plate, the butterfly valve achieves no friction or jamming between the butterfly plate sealing ring and the valve seat sealing surface. The pressure angle on the sealing surface is greater than the friction angle. The "radial dynamic balance sealing system" design is adopted to reduce the opening resistance of the butterfly plate. During the opening and closing process, the butterfly plate sealing surface can be quickly completed instantly along the 360° circumference of each point, point by point, and the sealing action of closing contact automatically matches can be achieved quickly and accurately. Since the sealing surface of the all-metal hard-sealed butterfly valve adopts an integral metal seal, the elliptical cross-section sealing ring is machined and formed into a sealing pair with the metal sealing surface of the valve seat. This sealing structure does not produce plastic deformation under high pressure, and there is no stamping stress, welding stress, elastic annealing or biting brittle cracking at high or low temperatures. It solves the leakage caused by the unreasonable structure of the sealing surface of the traditional butterfly valve and the reliability of the sealing performance. The content not described in detail in this description belongs to the existing technology known to professional and technical personnel in this field.

[0036] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and an explanation of the technical principles used. Those skilled in the art should understand that the scope of the utility model involved in the present application is not limited to the technical solution formed by a specific combination of the above technical features, but should also cover other technical solutions formed by any combination of the above technical features or their equivalent features without departing from the concept of the utility model. For example, the above features are replaced with the technical features with similar functions disclosed in the present application (but not limited to) by each other to form a technical solution.
