Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a valve, in particular to a stop valve. Background Art
[0002] The stop valve, also known as the gate valve, is a forced sealing valve. Therefore, when the valve is closed, pressure must be applied to the valve disc to force the sealing surface to prevent leakage. When the medium enters the valve from below the valve disc, the resistance that the operating force needs to overcome is the friction between the valve stem and the packing and the thrust generated by the pressure of the medium. The force to close the valve is greater than the force to open the valve, so the diameter of the valve stem must be large, otherwise the valve stem will bend.
[0003] The application field and application conditions of the stop valve are very wide, and in many strict pipeline systems, there are strict control requirements for the control state of the valve. In order to prevent others from misoperating, the valves used in the above pipeline systems must have a locking structure, that is, when the staff adjusts the control state of the valve, the valve is locked through the locking structure on the valve to avoid misoperation caused by accidental triggering by unrelated personnel. There are many types of stop valves with locking structures on the market, and in order to avoid the existing stop valve locking structure, the present invention is born. Utility Model Content
[0004] The utility model aims to provide a stop valve, which can avoid misoperation, thereby improving the control safety of the valve and adapting to harsh working conditions.
[0005] The above technical objectives of the utility model are achieved through the following technical solutions: a stop valve, comprising: a valve body, configured to allow medium to pass through; a valve cover, configured to cover the valve body installation port; a valve stem, installed on the valve cover and one end extending into the valve body; a valve disc, arranged in the valve body and connected to the valve stem; a hand wheel, rotatably arranged on the valve cover and connected to the valve stem to drive the valve stem to reciprocate along the axis; an anti-rotation component, configured to limit the circumferential rotation of the valve stem during movement; a locking component, configured to have a first matching feature and a second matching feature, the first matching feature is arranged on the valve cover, the second matching feature is arranged on the valve stem and moves with the valve stem, and the first matching feature matches the second matching feature to limit the movement of the valve stem; a control mechanism, configured to control whether the first matching feature and the second matching feature form a match.
[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the control mechanism controls the first matching feature and the second matching feature so that they do not match, so that the hand wheel can be controlled to adjust the opening of the valve through the valve stem. After the valve is adjusted to the required opening, the control mechanism controls the first matching feature and the second matching feature to match to achieve locking of the valve stem, thereby avoiding the problem of misoperation caused by unintentional triggering of the hand wheel by unrelated personnel, and also avoiding the problem of loose opening of the valve due to vibration. In this way, the control safety of the valve is improved and it is adapted to harsh working conditions. The anti-rotation component is set to prevent the valve stem from rotating during operation, thereby ensuring the reliability of the structure.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the toggle assembly has two locking states, and the coordinated linkage assembly is used to form a linkage with the locking assembly, making the control mechanism more convenient to operate.
[0009] It is further configured as follows: it includes a locking seat fixedly arranged on the valve stem, the first matching feature is a fixed lock tooth bar fixedly arranged on the valve cover and extending along the axis of the valve stem, and the second matching feature is a movable lock tooth movably arranged on the locking seat, and the movable lock tooth reciprocates toward the fixed lock tooth bar and moves with the valve stem.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the movable locking tooth and the locking seat move along the axis of the valve stem with the valve stem. When the valve stem is adjusted to the required position, the movable locking tooth is driven to move toward the fixed locking tooth bar, and the valve is locked by the engagement of the two.
[0011] It is further configured that the toggle assembly includes a toggle block slidably arranged on the locking seat, a locking claw rotatably arranged on the toggle block and moving with the toggle block, a torsion spring arranged on the locking seat corresponding to the movement path of the locking claw and for the locking claw to be embedded in the first locking groove and the second locking groove, and driving the locking claw to rotate toward one side of the first locking groove and the second locking groove.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the shifting block is shifted so that the locking claw moving with the shifting block can be embedded in the first locking groove or the second locking groove, thereby achieving the purpose of controlling the locking.
[0013] It is further configured as follows: the linkage assembly includes a return spring that drives the movable lock tooth to move away from the fixed lock rack, a first linkage protrusion formed at one end of the movable lock tooth facing away from the fixed lock rack, and a second linkage protrusion formed on the shift block and corresponding to one side of the first linkage protrusion; when the second linkage protrusion abuts against the first linkage protrusion, the movable lock tooth engages with the fixed lock rack.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, when the first linkage protrusion and the second linkage protrusion do not abut against each other, the movable lock tooth is separated from the fixed lock tooth bar and the locking claw is embedded in the first lock groove or the second lock groove; when the first linkage protrusion abuts against the second linkage protrusion, the movable lock tooth is engaged with the fixed lock tooth bar and the locking claw is embedded in the first lock groove or the second lock groove, thereby achieving the purpose of linkage control.
[0015] It is further configured as follows: a stroke indicating plate is provided on one side of the fixed lock rack, and a stroke pointer cooperating with the stroke indicating plate is fixedly provided on the locking seat.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, this setting allows the staff to directly observe the position of the stroke pointer on the stroke indicator plate when performing the locking operation, which is convenient for real-time recording of the valve status and makes daily maintenance and recording operations more convenient without adding unnecessary actions caused by recording.
[0017] It is further configured that: the anti-rotation component includes an anti-rotation protrusion fixedly arranged on the outer peripheral wall of the valve stem and an anti-rotation travel groove arranged on the valve body and for the anti-rotation protrusion to be embedded.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the anti-rotation protrusion moves with the valve stem in the anti-rotation stroke groove, thereby achieving the purpose of preventing the valve stem from rotating.
