Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of butterfly valves, in particular to a valve seat concave-convex groove positioning structure. Background Art

[0002] A butterfly valve, also known as a flap valve, is a simple regulating valve used for on / off control of low-pressure pipeline media. A butterfly valve features a disc-shaped closing element (disc or disc) that rotates around the valve axis to open and close. The valve can be used to control the flow of various fluids, including air, water, steam, various corrosive media, mud, oil, liquid metal, and radioactive media. It primarily serves as a shutoff and throttling mechanism in pipelines. The opening and closing element of a butterfly valve is a disc-shaped disc that rotates around its axis within the valve body, achieving opening, closing, or regulating functions.

[0003] The butterfly valve in the prior art needs to form a cut-off and sealed passage by squeezing the outer edge of the valve plate and the inner ring of the valve seat during use. Due to the large mass and outer diameter of the valve seat itself, a large extrusion force will be applied to the valve seat when closed, and the valve seat is usually fixed to the valve body by clamping. In order to facilitate installation, the number of clamping grooves needs to be minimized and the depth of the clamping grooves also needs to be reduced. However, the fewer the number of clamping grooves and the shallower the clamping grooves are due to the squeezing of the valve plate, the easier it is for the valve seat to shift. This problem is particularly prominent in the application of butterfly valves with large diameters. Utility Model Content

[0028] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with embodiments.

[0029] like Figure 1-Figure 4As shown, a valve seat concave-convex groove positioning structure includes a valve body 1, a valve seat 3 and a valve plate 4, and the valve body 1 is rotatably sleeved with a valve shaft 2, the periphery of the valve shaft 2 is fixedly sleeved with a valve plate 4, and the inner ring of the valve body 1 is provided with a valve seat 3, the periphery of the valve plate 4 can abut against the inner ring of the valve seat 3, the inner ring of the valve body 1 is axially provided with a plurality of first annular protrusions 11 and / or first annular grooves 12, and the periphery of the valve seat 3 is axially provided with a plurality of second annular grooves 32 and / or second annular protrusions 31, the first annular protrusions 11 and the second annular grooves 32 are one-to-one corresponding to each other, and the first annular protrusions 11 can be snapped into the second annular grooves 32. In the shaped groove 32, the second annular protrusion 31 corresponds to the first annular groove 12 one by one, and the second annular protrusion 31 can be snapped into the first annular groove 12. The inner ring of the butterfly valve body 1 of this embodiment is greater than 0.5m. During production and installation, the outer edge of the valve plate 4 needs to be sealed by squeezing the inner ring of the valve seat 3. By providing multiple first annular protrusions 11 and first annular grooves 12 and cooperating with the second annular protrusions 31 and the second annular grooves 32, the valve plate 4 can avoid displacement strain of the valve seat 3 when squeezing the valve seat 3, so as to improve the sealing performance and service life of the butterfly valve.
