Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of gate valves, in particular to a low-torque high-sealing gate valve. Background Art
[0002] The gate valve is a gate plate of an opening and closing part. The movement direction of the gate plate is perpendicular to the direction of the fluid. The gate valve can only be fully opened and fully closed, and cannot be adjusted or throttled. The gate valve is sealed by the contact between the valve seat and the gate plate. Usually, the sealing surface will be welded with metal materials to increase wear resistance, such as cladding 1Cr13, STL6, stainless steel, etc. The gate plate has a rigid gate plate and an elastic gate plate. According to the difference in the gate plate, the gate valve is divided into a rigid gate valve and an elastic gate valve. The low-torque valve is a specially designed valve with a low torque value, which is usually used in occasions requiring a small torque. This valve uses special sealing materials and structural design, which can achieve good sealing effect at a low torque, while having high safety performance and service life.
[0003] For example, the Chinese patent "CN218992407U" discloses a low-torque soft-sealed gate valve, which proposes that: a hand wheel is installed on the end of the valve stem located outside the valve body, two partitions are provided on the left and right inner cavity walls of the valve body, and a guide wheel unit that can reduce torque is provided in the guide cavity between the two partitions, and the guide wheel unit is installed on the side end of the elastic valve disc. A partition and a guide wheel unit composed of a mounting shaft, a rolling ring, a baffle, a limit plate and a universal ball are provided, and the rolling friction between the two partitions is achieved by the rolling ring, and the rolling friction between the baffle and the inner cavity wall of the valve body is achieved by the universal ball, thereby reducing the friction between the elastic valve disc and the valve body, and finally reducing the torque required for the valve stem to rotate.
[0004] It can be seen from the above-mentioned device that although the above-mentioned device provides a method for reducing the friction between the valve disc and the valve body, the applicant believes that the following defects still exist:
[0005] During normal use, the existing low-torque sealing gate valve has low sealing performance when the valve is closed due to low torque and small force. After long-term use, it is easy to loosen, resulting in poor sealing and the valve cannot be closed tightly. The valve core is also easy to loosen during use, causing water to flow from the valve core into the top of the valve body and out from the valve cover or handle connection. Utility Model Content
[0006] 1. Technical issues to be solved
[0007] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the utility model provides a low-torque high-sealing gate valve, which has the advantages that the valve body can still maintain high sealing under low torque conditions, and the valve core is still firmly fixed to prevent water leakage during long-term use. This solves the problem that the existing low-torque sealing gate valve has low sealing performance when the valve is closed due to low torque and small force during normal use, and is prone to loosening after long-term use, resulting in poor sealing and the inability to close the valve tightly. The valve core is also prone to loosening during use, causing water to flow from the valve core into the top of the valve body and out from the valve cover or handle connection.

[0014] Preferably, a valve stem is movably installed inside the valve core, and a plurality of sealing strips are provided on the outer walls on both sides of the valve core, and the plurality of sealing strips are sealingly fitted to the outer wall of the isolation plate.
[0015] Preferably, a connector is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the lower end of the valve stem, a valve plate is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connector, and the valve plate is arranged in a water through hole opened by the valve core.
[0016] Preferably, a limit seat is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the valve core, a limit rod is movably mounted inside the limit seat, and the limit rod is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the valve core.

[0019] (III) Beneficial effects
[0020] Compared with the prior art, the utility model provides a low-torque high-sealing gate valve, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0021] 1. The low-torque high-sealing gate valve achieves the supporting force provided by the supporting spring through the cooperation between the sealing gasket and the supporting spring, so that the sealing gasket can fit firmly between the valve cover and the valve body. After long-term use, the elasticity of the sealing gasket decreases, and it can still maintain a tight fit without maintenance or replacement.
[0022] 2. The low-torque high-sealing gate valve achieves the goal of continuously providing force to the valve core through the elasticity of the tension spring through the cooperation between the tension spring and the valve core, so that the sealing strips on both sides of the valve core fit tightly with the isolation plate inside the valve body, preventing the water flow from below from entering the top of the valve body and causing leakage, thereby enhancing the sealing performance.
[0023] 3. The low-torque high-sealing gate valve uses a limit magnetic plate to adsorb the magnetic block on the outside of the valve plate. When the valve plate is closed, the limit magnetic plate limits the movement of the valve plate and adsorbs it magnetically, so that the valve plate and the sealing ring always maintain a sealed state to prevent water leakage, and when the valve plate is opened, the overall torque and friction are small.

Two spring bases 22 are arranged on both sides of the inner wall of the sealing gasket 21, and a supporting spring 23 is arranged on the outer wall of the spring base 22.

The sealing ring 38 is sealed and fitted with the valve plate 33 when the valve plate 33 is in a closed state.
[0035] Working principle: First, the valve body 1 is installed on the pipe to be connected through the connecting flanges 11 on both sides of the valve body 1. After the valve body 1 is installed, the connecting rod valve stem 13 can be driven to rotate through the handle 14, and the valve stem 13 drives the valve plate 33 to rotate to control the opening and closing of the valve. During the rotation of the valve stem 13, since the bearing 25 is arranged on the outer wall of the valve stem 13, the bearing 25 does not rotate with the valve stem 13. The two connecting rods 24 arranged on the outer wall of the bearing 25 are connected to the outer wall of the sealing gasket 21 through the supporting spring 23, so that the sealing gasket is always tightly fitted to the valve cover 12 and the inside of the valve body 1 to prevent the elasticity of the sealing gasket 21 from weakening due to long-term use. Leakage, and the support rod 27 is fixed by the connecting base 26 on both sides of the bearing 25. The support rod 27 is connected to the top of the valve core 31 through the tension spring 28, so that not only the stability of the bearing 25 can be guaranteed, but also the downward pressure on the valve core 31 can be provided through the tension spring 28, so that the valve core 31 is tightly fitted to the upper surface of the valve core 31 through the sealing strip 311, ensuring the overall sealing of the valve body 1.
[0036] Secondly, when rotating the handle 14 to adjust the opening and closing of the valve plate 33, due to the setting of the limiting magnetic plate 37, the valve plate 33 can only be rotated in a single direction to control the opening and closing, and when opening the valve plate 33, the overall force is only through the adsorption force of the magnetic block 36 and the limiting magnetic plate 37, and the friction force of the sealing ring 38 on the valve plate 33. The overall torque is small, and while maintaining a small torque, a two-way pressure of 25 kg can be achieved through the mutual adsorption of the magnetic block 36 and the limiting magnetic plate 37. When closing the valve, the handle 14 can be rotated in the opposite direction. When the valve plate 33 is closed, the limiting magnetic plate 37 is used to keep the valve plate 33 and the sealing ring 38 always in a sealed fit, thereby achieving the effect of overall sealing of the valve body 1.
