Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of valve technology, and in particular to a detachable rotary ball valve. Background Art

[0002] The rotary ball valve has the functions and advantages of butterfly valve, half ball valve, gate valve and stop valve, and has its own powerful functions and advantages that are completely different from others. It is small in size, light in weight, easy to transport, install, maintain and repair, and reliable in operation; the main feature of the rotary ball valve is that it can not only reliably shut off in positive pressure, but also in reverse pressure or reverse pressure much greater than positive pressure. It can automatically align the center and automatically compensate for wear by overtravel. When closing, it fully utilizes the energy of the medium in the rotary ball valve and automatically applies extremely high sealing pressure ratio, so that the high-hardness sealing pair can achieve reliable zero leakage. There is no friction between the sealing pair when closing and opening instantly. The main structure of the rotary ball valve is similar to that of the butterfly valve, and it has the characteristics of short structure and small size of the butterfly valve, so it can manufacture valves with extra-large and super-large diameters.

[0003] In the prior art, various types of rotary ball valves will produce residual dirt from the medium on the inner wall during long-term use, requiring necessary decontamination and maintenance. For example, the rotary ball valve mentioned in the utility model patent with application number CN202020620571.6 is maintained during use by removing the bottom cover and maintaining the inside of the valve body from the bottom of the valve body inward. During the disassembly process of the bottom cover, multiple fasteners need to be loosened, and the removed bottom cover needs to be properly kept, which is inconvenient to reinstall. Therefore, there is room for improvement. Summary of the invention
