Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of steam turbine exhaust cylinders, in particular to an atmospheric valve for a steam turbine exhaust cylinder. Background Art
[0002] The exhaust cylinder atmospheric valve of the steam turbine is a safety protection facility for the vacuum system. The sudden interruption of the cooling water of the condenser of the condensing steam turbine unit will cause the absolute pressure of the exhaust steam to exceed one atmosphere. When the steam pressure is too high, the exhaust cylinder atmospheric valve opens to discharge the steam in the steam turbine and condenser to the atmosphere, which plays a role in protecting the condenser and the exhaust cylinder.
[0003] Reference Figure 1 The exhaust cylinder atmospheric valve in the prior art is mainly composed of a clamping ring 3, a first valve cover 7, a 1mm first asbestos rubber sheet 6, etc. The gray cast iron cast valve seat 9 is equipped with the first valve cover 7, the clamping ring 3 and the first asbestos rubber sheet 6 installed between the clamping ring 3 and the first valve cover 7. Under normal vacuum conditions, the first asbestos rubber sheet 6 is pressed inward on the first valve cover 7 by the external atmospheric pressure; when the steam pressure in the exhaust cylinder rises to a certain value, the steam pressure in the exhaust cylinder acts on the first valve cover 7, and the shear force formed by the first valve cover 7 and the clamping ring 3 breaks the first asbestos rubber sheet 6, thereby allowing the steam to be discharged into the atmosphere. There is a limit cover 8 on the exhaust cylinder atmospheric valve to prevent the first valve cover 7 and the first asbestos rubber sheet 6 from flying out when the atmospheric valve is actuated. The limit cover 8 is installed on the valve seat 9 through the first studs 2 and the first nut 1 on both sides, and the first studs 2 press the first asbestos rubber sheet 6 on the outer surface of the first valve cover 7. When the steam turbine manufacturer conducts cylinder hydraulic test and transportation, a temporary gasket 5 is installed above the first asbestos rubber sheet 6. The temporary gasket 5 can press the first asbestos rubber sheet 6 and the first valve cover 7, stabilize the first valve cover 7, and protect the first asbestos rubber sheet 6 from damage. An asbestos rubber sheet gasket 4 is also installed between the top of the temporary gasket 5 and the travel limit cover 8. During installation, the temporary gasket 5 must be removed, otherwise the atmospheric valve will lose its protective function.
[0004] As described above, the exhaust cylinder atmospheric valve in the above-mentioned prior art needs to be installed with a temporary gasket 5 to protect the first asbestos rubber sheet 6 when the cylinder is transported; however, during on-site installation, the temporary gasket 5 needs to be removed, otherwise the protective function of the atmospheric valve is lost, and repeated loading and unloading makes the process complicated and affects the construction period.

[0013] The above structural solution is adopted to improve the firmness of the first connecting seat and the second connecting seat.
[0014] As a preferred implementation of the atmospheric valve of a steam turbine exhaust cylinder, the side wall of the second valve cover that is connected to the valve port gradually shrinks in the direction toward the inside of the valve housing.
[0015] By adopting the above structural solution, after the second valve cover is connected to the valve port, the valve port can limit the second valve cover, making the second valve cover more firm and stable.
[0016] As a preferred implementation of a turbine exhaust cylinder atmospheric valve, a plurality of inner pressure rings are arranged in a circular pattern.
