Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of thermal insulation ball valves, in particular to a thermal insulation ball valve with an auxiliary limiting structure. Background Art
[0002] Insulated ball valves are widely used in many industries, such as petroleum, chemical industry, electric power, metallurgy, pharmaceuticals and food. They are a kind of valve that uses a ball with a circular through hole as the opening and closing part. The ball rotates with the valve stem to realize the opening and closing action. It is mainly used to cut off or connect the medium in the pipeline, and can also be used for fluid regulation and control. At the same time, it can also close any channel and connect the other two channels.
[0003] At present, the existing insulated ball valve is mainly composed of a valve body, a ball, a valve stem, an operating handle and other components, and a jacket with an inlet and outlet for heat-insulating heating fluid is welded on the outer wall of the valve body, which is used to circulate heat-insulating media such as steam or hot oil to ensure that viscous media can flow through the valve smoothly and the valve can be opened and closed normally. When the insulated ball valve is in use, the rotation of the operating handle will drive the valve stem and the ball to rotate, thereby adjusting the opening degree of the valve and controlling the flow rate and pressure of the fluid. However, during the long-term use of the insulated ball valve, the packing between the valve body and the valve stem will wear, which is easy to affect the stability of the valve stem and the sealing of the valve. In addition, a large impact force will be generated on the ball during the flow of the fluid. The impact force acts on the ball itself and is easily transmitted to the valve stem and the operating handle through the ball. If this continues for a long time, the valve stem will easily loosen, which will easily cause the handle, valve stem and ball to rotate, thereby affecting the normal control of the valve. Utility Model Content
[0004] Based on this, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a thermal insulation ball valve with an auxiliary limiting structure to solve the technical problems raised in the above background technology.
[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: a heat-insulating ball valve with an auxiliary limiting structure, comprising a ball valve body, a heat-insulating mechanism and a sealing ring, and the ball valve body comprises a valve body, a ball, a valve stem and an operating handle, the valve stem is provided with a release mechanism extending to the outside, the release mechanism comprises a vertical plate provided on one side of the top end of the valve stem, the inner side of the vertical plate is rotatably connected with a pressing plate through a support shaft, a connecting plate penetrating the valve stem is provided below the vertical plate, and a linkage plate is rotatably connected between the pressing plate and the connecting plate through a hinge seat;
[0006] An auxiliary limiting mechanism is also provided at the top end of the valve body, which is located on the outside of the valve stem. The auxiliary limiting mechanism includes a limiting groove opened at one end of the valve body close to the operating handle, and a limiting plate is provided inside the limiting groove. An annular plate arranged around the valve stem is provided at the upper end of the limiting plate, and the annular plate is fixedly connected to the connecting plate. Support plates are provided on both sides of the valve stem, and a reset spring is welded between the annular plate and the support plate.
[0007] Furthermore, a guide hole is opened inside the support plate, and a guide rod penetrating the reset spring and the guide hole is welded to one end of the annular plate.
[0008] Furthermore, the limiting groove is a tooth groove structure, the limiting plate is a toothed disc structure, the annular plate and the valve body form a clamping structure through the limiting groove and the limiting plate, and a sealing ring is provided at one end of the annular plate close to the valve body.
[0009] Furthermore, the heat-insulating mechanism is sleeved on the outside of the valve body, and the heat-insulating mechanism consists of a jacket (201), an input port and an output port.
[0010] Furthermore, the jacket is arranged on the outer surface of the valve body, a sphere is arranged at the front end of the jacket, and a valve stem is arranged at the rear end of the jacket.
[0011] In summary, the utility model mainly has the following beneficial effects:
[0012] 1. The existing insulated ball valve is prone to loosening of the valve stem due to the wear of the packing and the impact of the fluid flow during long-term use, which easily affects the normal control of the valve. The utility model is provided with an auxiliary limiting mechanism. Since the annular plate and the support plate are elastically connected by a reset spring, when the pressing plate is released, the annular plate will be reset under the action of the reset spring, and the limit plate will be stuck in the limit groove, thereby realizing auxiliary limiting of the valve stem to prevent it from loosening and self-rotation, increasing the stability of the valve stem during use, thereby preventing the normal control and sealing of the valve from being affected;
[0013] 2. The utility model is provided with a releasing mechanism. Since the pressing plate and the vertical plate are rotatably connected through the support shaft, and the linkage plate, the pressing plate and the connecting plate are rotatably connected through the hinge seat, the pressing plate can be pressed downward to make it deflect around the support shaft, so that the connecting plate and the limit plate can be driven to move up through the linkage plate, and the limit plate can be separated from the limit groove, thereby realizing the releasing operation of the valve stem, so that the rotation of the valve stem is not affected and the operation is convenient.

[0025] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5It can be seen that since the annular plate 303 and the support plate 305 are elastically connected by the reset spring 304, when the pressing plate 402 is released, the annular plate 303 will be reset under the action of the reset spring 304, and the limiting plate 302 will be stuck in the limiting groove 301, thereby realizing auxiliary limiting of the valve stem 103 to prevent it from loosening and rotating, thereby increasing the stability of the valve stem 103 during use, thereby preventing the normal control and sealing of the valve from being affected, and the wear of the packing can be greatly reduced, thereby extending the service life of the packing.
[0026] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 It can be seen that a sealing ring 5 is provided at one end of the annular plate 303 close to the valve body 101 , which can play a sealing role and improve the sealing effect between the valve stem 103 and the valve body 101 .

[0030] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: when using the thermal insulation ball valve with an auxiliary limiting structure, the pressing plate 402 can be pressed downward to make it deflect with the support shaft 405 as the axis, so that the connecting plate 404 and the limiting plate 302 can be driven to move up through the linkage plate 403, and the limiting plate 302 can be disengaged from the limiting groove 301, thereby realizing the release operation of the valve stem 103.
