Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of butterfly valves, in particular to a butterfly valve sealing structure. Background Art

[0002] A butterfly valve, also known as a flap valve, is a regulating valve with a simple structure that can be used for on-off control of low-pressure pipeline media. A butterfly valve refers to a valve with a closing member as a disc that rotates around the valve axis to achieve opening and closing. The valve can be used to control the flow of various types of fluids such as air, water, steam, various corrosive media, mud, oil, liquid metal and radioactive media. It mainly plays a cutting and throttling role in the pipeline. The butterfly valve opening and closing member is a disc-shaped butterfly plate that rotates around its own axis in the valve body to achieve the purpose of opening, closing or regulation.

[0003] The butterfly valve is mainly composed of a valve body, a valve stem, a butterfly plate and a sealing ring. The valve body is cylindrical, with a short axial length and a built-in butterfly plate. The butterfly valve has the characteristics of simple structure, small size, light weight, low material consumption, small installation size, rapid switching, 90-degree reciprocating rotation, and small driving torque. It is used to cut off, connect, and regulate the medium in the pipeline. At present, most butterfly valves have a sealing ring set on the butterfly plate to form a seal between the cylinder inside the valve body. When the butterfly valve is opened and closed many times, friction is easily generated between the sealing ring and the valve body, resulting in damage to the sealing ring, thereby affecting the sealing effect of the butterfly valve. To this end, we propose a butterfly valve sealing structure to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0021] The two arc strips 19 are respectively located on both sides of the butterfly plate 15, and the sides of the two sealing gaskets 18 that are close to each other are in contact with the outer surface of the butterfly plate 15 and the outer surface of the sealing ring 16. The arc strips 19 are arranged on both sides of the butterfly plate 15, which will not affect the normal opening of the butterfly plate 15. The left and right ends of the valve body 1 are fixedly connected to the connecting disk 4, and the sides of the two connecting disks 4 that are away from each other are provided with multiple connecting holes 3. The connecting disks 4 on both sides of the valve body 1 can facilitate the installation and fixation of the butterfly valve. The outer surface of the valve body 1 is fixedly connected to the fixing ear 6, and the middle part of the fixing ear 6 is provided with a through opening 5. By arranging the fixing ear 6 at the bottom of the valve body 1, the butterfly valve can be lifted.
