DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0024] Embodiment 1:
[0025] like Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, a valve stem anti-rotation mechanism for an electric gate valve includes a transmission support 1, a valve stem 2, a valve stem nut 3, a transition plate 5 and a thrust clamp. The valve stem nut 3 is rotatably arranged on the transmission support 1, and a thrust bearing 17 is arranged between the valve stem nut 3 and the transmission support 1. The upper end of the thrust bearing 17 is limited by a pressure ring fixedly connected to the transmission support 1, and the lower end of the valve stem nut 3 is limited by a retaining ring and the lower end of the thrust bearing 17. The valve stem 2 is arranged in the valve stem nut 3 and is threadedly connected to the valve stem nut 3. The upper end of the valve stem nut 3 is provided with a toothed interface 4 for connecting to a motor.
[0026] An installation cavity 7 is provided between the outer wall of the upper end of the valve stem nut 3 and the inner wall of the transmission support 1. A gasket 8 is provided at the bottom of the installation cavity 7. The gasket 8 is fixedly connected to the transmission support 1 through a countersunk screw. The transition plate 5 is fixedly provided on the gasket 8. A through hole for the valve stem nut 3 to pass through is provided in the middle of the transition plate 5. The thrust clamp is detachably provided on the transition plate 5. Preferably, the thrust clamp includes a fan ring structure 6. The fan ring structure 6 is connected to the transition plate 5 through bolts. The inner end of the fan ring structure 6 is plugged into the tooth interface 4 on the valve stem nut 3. The gasket 8 is used to ensure that the height of the upper end surface of the transition plate 5 is higher than the lower bottom surface of the tooth interface 4, so that the inner end of the fan ring structure 6 can be smoothly inserted into the groove of the tooth interface 4. The bolts are used to prevent the fan ring structure 6 and the transition plate 5 from rotating relative to each other, thereby preventing the valve stem nut 3 from rotating relative to the transmission support 1. The valve stem is prevented from rotating.
[0027] Embodiment 2:
[0028] In the first embodiment, the inner end of the fan ring structure 6 must be aligned with the groove of the toothed interface 4 to be inserted, which is a complicated operation. Therefore, based on the first embodiment, the thrust plate structure is modified in the present embodiment.
[0029] like Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the thrust clamp includes a thrust ring 9, and the inner side of the thrust ring 9 is uniformly distributed with a plurality of sliding holes 10 along the circumferential direction. A sliding rod 11 is slidably arranged in the sliding hole 10 and the sliding direction points to the axis of the thrust ring 9. The end of the sliding rod 11 away from the axis of the thrust ring 9 is connected with a position control mechanism. Preferably, the position control mechanism includes a control ring 12, a spring 13 and a push block 14. The control ring 12 is rotatably arranged on the thrust ring 9, and a planar thread 15 is arranged on the lower end surface of the control ring 912. The spring 13 and the push block 14 are both arranged in the sliding hole 10, one end of the spring 13 is fixedly connected to the end of the sliding rod 11 away from the axis of the thrust ring 9, and the other end of the spring 13 is fixedly connected to the push block 14. The upper end of the push block 14 extends out of the thrust ring 9 and cooperates with the planar thread 15 at the lower end of the control ring 912. When the control ring 912 rotates, the planar thread 15 pushes the multiple push blocks 14 to move synchronously toward or away from the center of the thrust ring 9, and then drives the corresponding sliding rods 11 to move through the spring 13. When one end of some sliding rods 11 contacts the raised portion of the toothed interface 4, the corresponding sliding rods 11 no longer move with the push blocks 14, and the remaining sliding rods 11 are inserted into the groove portion of the toothed interface 4 and limit the rotation of the valve stem nut 3.
[0030] The push block 14 and the planar thread 15 cooperate with each other in a structure similar to a three-jaw chuck, and the rotating planar thread drives the multiple push blocks to move inward or outward synchronously.
[0031] Preferably, a slot is provided on one side of the transmission support 1, and a control rod 16 is fixedly connected to one side of the control ring 12. One end of the control rod 16 extends out of the transmission support 1 through the slot, and the control ring 912 can be driven to rotate by the control rod 16 without disassembly. A locking mechanism is provided between the control rod 16 and the transmission support 1 of the transmission bracket. The locking mechanism can be locked by a nut, and a thread is provided on the outer end of the control rod 16. The nut is threadedly connected to the control rod 16, and one end of the nut is pressed against the outer wall of the transmission support 1 to achieve locking.
[0032] Only the preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of ordinary technicians in this field without departing from the purpose of the present invention, and various changes should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
