Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of valves in the chemical smelting industry, in particular to a flap valve for a large filtering tower. Background Art

[0002] The flap valve (also called a rotary valve) is a common type of valve used to control the flow of fluid in a piping system. It consists of a rotating disc (flap) that can rotate around the valve seat to control the flow of fluid. The flap valve is usually manually operated by rotating a handle or handwheel to control the position of the valve disc. When the valve disc is fully aligned with the valve seat, the valve is in the open state, allowing the fluid to pass freely. When the valve disc is rotated to a position perpendicular to the valve seat, the valve is closed, blocking the passage of fluid. One of the advantages of flap valves is that they are simple to operate and easy to maintain and repair. They are generally suitable for low-pressure and medium-pressure applications, such as domestic water supply systems, industrial pipelines, and some fluid processing systems. However, flap valves also have some limitations. Because the valve disc needs to rotate, they may have problems with liquid hammer (water hammer) when closing or opening quickly. In addition, they may not be suitable for high-pressure or high-temperature applications, because these conditions require more complex and high-pressure / high-temperature resistant valve designs. In general, flap valves are a common and practical type of valve that is suitable for some specific piping systems and fluid control needs. When selecting and using valves, the appropriate valve type should be considered based on specific application requirements and system conditions.

[0003] Prior art example 1, referring to patent document CN210196478U, discloses a heavy hammer flap valve, including a casing with upper and lower openings, a downward sealing cone bucket is installed at the upper opening of the casing, two opposite side walls of the casing are located outside the mouth of the sealing cone bucket, each is equipped with a seat bearing, a flip shaft is arranged between the seat bearings, a sealing flap that can completely cover the mouth of the sealing cone bucket is installed on the flip shaft, a flap swing arm is also fixed between the seat bearings, a counterweight block is mounted on the flap swing arm, a groove is opened at the valve body inlet of the sealing cone bucket, and rubber is filled in the groove to form a sealing strip; when the sealing flap is closed, the sealing flap can be tightly matched with the sealing strip at the joint surface. Through the utility model, in the case where substances such as tar and dust are bonded to the valve body inlet of the sealing cone bucket, the sealing strip can fit tightly with the sealing cone bucket, solving the problems of loose sealing, air leakage and vacuum caused by the hardened materials at the joint of the sealing surface in the prior art.

[0004] Prior art example 2, referring to patent document CN108775427B, discloses a micro-motion gravity flap valve assembly, a gravity flap valve and a feed pipe. It includes a rotating shaft, a counterweight structure and a valve plate assembly. The counterweight structure and the valve plate assembly are distributed on both radial sides of the rotating shaft. The valve plate assembly includes a valve plate frame and a valve plate. One end of the valve plate frame is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft. The valve plate is hinged to the valve plate frame, and its hinge position is located in the lower half of the valve plate. When the valve plate is in a closed state, its upper part fits the valve plate frame, and a distance is set between its lower part and the valve plate frame. The counterweight structure is fixedly connected to both ends of the rotating shaft. The present invention adopts a double lever structure, which can effectively eliminate the inertia of the material, thereby accurately controlling the opening of the valve plate and avoiding the valve plate from opening too large. The position of the counterweight block is adjustable. When the installation angle and material density are different, the sensitivity of the counterweight block can be adjusted by adjusting the position of the counterweight block on the counterweight rod. The valve plate frame and the rotating shaft are reliably connected by arranging grooves and protrusions on the valve plate frame and the rotating shaft.

[0005] The structures of Example 1 and Example 2 have many similarities, for example: 1. The rotating shafts of the flap valves are both located at the outermost ends, so during the flipping process, the pressure on the rotating shafts is very large, making the rotating shafts more susceptible to damage and breakage; 2. The opening position and direction of the flip valves are single, that is, the end away from the rotating shaft is opened first, but when the fluid in the channel flows irregularly, especially when its flow path is closer to the rotating shaft, it will lead to uneven flow and low flow efficiency; 3. There is a lack of effective sealing structure. Summary of the invention
