Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ball valves, in particular to a pressure-balanced self-adaptive sealing ball valve. Background Art

[0002] A ball valve is a valve installed on a pipeline. It is driven by a valve stem and rotates around the axis of the ball valve. The ball valve is mainly used to cut off, distribute and change the flow direction of fluids. There is a through hole in the middle of the ball of the ball valve. When the ball rotates 90°, the through hole coincides with or is perpendicular to the axis of the pipeline, thereby opening or closing the fluid.

[0003] The utility model patent with authorization announcement number CN217130389U discloses a pressure-balanced fully welded ball valve, which includes a valve body and a driving device, a driving device is arranged at the top of the valve body, a water inlet flange interface is installed at one end of the valve body, a water outlet flange interface is installed at the other end of the valve body, a pressure relief device is installed on one side of the valve body, a first connecting pipe is embedded and installed at one end of the pressure relief device, the other end of the first connecting pipe is communicated with the water inlet flange interface, a second connecting pipe is embedded and installed at the other end of the pressure relief device, one end of the second connecting pipe is communicated with the water outlet flange interface, a valve core is movably inserted inside the valve body, a valve stem is fixedly installed at the top of the valve core, and the top end of the valve stem passes through the valve body and is sleeved inside the driving device. This pressure-balanced fully welded ball valve is installed with a pressure relief device, and the pressure relief device is connected to the water inlet and water outlet of the valve body by using the first connecting pipe and the second connecting pipe, so that when the internal pressure of the water inlet pipe is too high, the pressure enters the interior of the pressure relief device through the first connecting pipe, and through the coordinated use of the spring, the first mounting seat, the second mounting seat, the sealing gasket and the piston, when the internal pressure value of the pressure relief device is large, the piston is lifted up, so that the first mounting seat overcomes the elastic force of the spring and rises together, when the height of the piston is higher than the height of the second connecting pipe, the pressure enters the water outlet of the valve body through the second connecting pipe, and the pressure value is released, when the pressure value is less than the elastic force of the spring, the piston is reset by the elasticity of the spring, so that the medium will not enter the second connecting pipe, and the pressure is released, so that the user can turn the valve core to control the opening and closing of the ball valve.

[0004] Although the pressure-balanced fully welded ball valve has the effect of improving the internal pressure balance of the ball valve, the device still has the following problems in actual use: the top of the valve core in the device is directly fixedly connected to the valve stem, and the common structure between the valve core and the valve stem is plug-in fixation, that is, a slot is provided at the top of the valve core, and a plug-in block plugged into the slot is provided at the bottom of the valve stem. Although this design is convenient for assembling the valve core, when the pressure at both ends of the valve core is inconsistent, the plug-in structure of the plug-in block and the slot will cause relative displacement between the plug-in block and the slot, that is, under the push of pressure, the valve core will generate more extrusion force on the seal on the other side in the low-pressure zone, and under this extrusion force, the seal in the low-pressure zone on the other side will be more severely worn, thereby affecting the overall sealing of the ball valve. Therefore, the installation method of the valve core has certain limitations. In view of this, we propose a pressure-balanced adaptive sealing ball valve. Utility Model Content
