Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of valves, in particular to a multi-sealed plug valve. Background Art
[0002] As a type of valve widely used in the field of fluid control, the core structure of the plug valve realizes the opening and closing control of the flow channel through the rotational cooperation between the plug body and the valve seat. Traditional plug valves mostly adopt a conical plug structure, relying on the compression fit of a single sealing surface and the valve seat to achieve sealing. However, under conditions of high temperature, high pressure or the presence of particulate impurities in the medium, this type of design is prone to seal failure due to thermal deformation of the material, wear of the sealing surface or penetration of the medium, which in turn causes leakage problems. Especially for long-term conditions of frequent opening and closing or high-pressure shocks, the sealing components of traditional plug valves are prone to plastic deformation, resulting in a decrease in the sealing preload, requiring frequent maintenance or replacement of seals, and significantly increasing the cost of use.
[0003] In the existing technology, some improvement schemes try to improve the sealing performance by adding auxiliary sealing rings or optimizing the taper of the plug, but there are still limitations: first, a single sealing structure is difficult to cope with multi-directional stress under dynamic conditions, and local gaps are prone to appear on the sealing surface; second, there is a lack of elastic compensation design for the sealing element, which is prone to gaps under temperature fluctuations or mechanical vibrations; third, the packing seal between the valve stem and the valve body often causes medium leakage due to uneven clamping force. In addition, the conventional metal sealing material has insufficient deformation recovery ability under extreme temperatures, which further limits the reliability of the valve under complex working conditions.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide an improved technical solution to solve the above technical problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a technical effect of a ferrule plug valve that achieves multiple seals in response to the above-mentioned technical problems.
[0006] In view of this, the utility model provides a multi-sealed plug valve, comprising a valve body, a valve stem, and a plug body, characterized in that the plug body is a truncated cone structure with an upper outer diameter greater than a lower outer diameter, a ferrule is provided between the valve body and the top outer wall of the plug body, and the inner side of the ferrule contacts the surface of the plug body;
[0007] A sealing valve seat is provided between the valve body and the lower outer side wall of the plug valve, the inner wall of the sealing valve seat abuts against the surface of the plug valve, the outer surface of the sealing valve seat abuts against the groove arranged on the inner wall of the valve body, and an axially arranged elastic component is provided between the lower end surface of the sealing valve seat and the valve body; an elastic deformation layer is provided on the outer surface of the sealing valve seat.
[0008] Furthermore, it also includes:
[0009] A compression elastic member is axially arranged between the valve body and the top of the plug valve.
[0010] Furthermore, it also includes:
[0011] The plastic gasket and the memory alloy gasket are overlapped and arranged between the valve body and the top surface of the rotary plug, and are sleeved on the outer side of the valve stem.

[0013] Furthermore, it also includes:
[0014] The bracket is fixedly connected to the top of the valve body, and the valve stem is rotatably connected to the bracket.
[0015] Furthermore, it also includes:
[0016] A packing chamber, which is arranged at the top of the valve body and around the valve stem;
[0017] The packing gland is mounted on the valve stem and sealed on the top of the packing cavity and fixed to the valve body by studs.
[0018] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0019] 1. The utility model realizes self-compensation sealing, and can also realize sealing through self-compensation during vibration, so that the sealing effect of the sealing valve seat is better, the service life is longer, and the replacement cost is reduced.

[0031] Working principle:
[0032] After multiple rotations, the friction between the sealing valve seat 14 and the plug body 3 will cause wear, and the wear between the plug valve and the ferrule 4 will cause the plug body 3 to sink, or the assembly gap will become larger, resulting in a poor sealing effect. Under the action of the high-strength spring, the sealing valve seat 14 is pushed to move upward, and the displacement is obtained by compressing the elastic deformation layer 11, so that the sealing valve seat 14 is in contact with the surface of the plug body 3. The elastic deformation layer 11 can be made of a compressible sealing material, such as rubber. While sealing, the sealing valve seat 14 can be provided with a displacement to achieve self-compensating sealing, and during vibration, sealing can also be achieved through self-compensation, so that the sealing effect of the sealing valve seat 14 is better, the service life is longer, and the replacement cost is reduced.
