[0003] Valve testing equipment is used to test the strength and sealing performance of valves. Existing valve testing equipment is usually specially manufactured for a single type of valve. The valve of that type needs to be loaded onto the pressurizing equipment, and then the testing process is monitored and the results are output through the sensor equipment. However, there are many kinds of valves, some are used in liquid pipelines, and some are used in gas pipelines. The testing requirements for valves on pipelines with different fluid media are obviously different. Specialized production requires multiple testing benches. However, the properties of gas pipelines and liquid pipelines are very different. Direct combination obviously has certain difficulties.

[0028] See also Figures 1 to 5 , is a nuclear power plant valve test device in some embodiments of the utility model, which includes an operating mechanism 1, at least one loading mechanism 2, a pneumatic mechanism 3 and a hydraulic mechanism 4. The operating mechanism 1 is connected to the loading mechanism 2, the pneumatic mechanism 3 and the hydraulic mechanism 4, and the operating mechanism 1 is used to control the actions of the loading mechanism 2, the pneumatic mechanism 3 and the hydraulic mechanism 4. The loading mechanism 2 is used to fix the valve, the pneumatic mechanism 3 is used to provide pneumatic pressure for the valve, and the hydraulic mechanism 4 is used to provide hydraulic pressure for the valve. In this embodiment, the number of the loading mechanisms 2 is 5, and each loading mechanism 2 can correspond to a valve for pressure resistance test. The nuclear power plant valve test device can perform pneumatic or hydraulic pressure tests on 5 valves at the same time. In some other embodiments, the number of the loading mechanisms 2 can be set according to the actual test requirements, and is not specifically limited here.

[0029] It can be understood that the nuclear power plant valve test device fixes the valve through the loading mechanism 2, provides air pressure to the valve through the air pressure mechanism 3, and provides water pressure to the valve through the water pressure mechanism 4. It can test valves that need to be resistant to water pressure, and can also test valves that need to be resistant to air pressure. Moreover, through the setting of multiple loading mechanisms 2, it can perform pressure tests on multiple valves at the same time, thereby improving the adaptability and work efficiency of the valve pressure test, replacing the traditional manual pressure testing through a hand-cranked pump, improving the reliability of valve pressure testing, reducing human factors and reducing the risk of valve pressure testing, and improving the reliability of common valve pressure testing.

[0030] like Figure 3As shown, the loading mechanism 2 includes a frame 21, a fixed sealing disk 22, a pull rod 23, a movable plate 24, a top-pressure sealing disk 25 and a driver 26. The fixed sealing disk 22 is fixedly connected to the frame 21, the pull rod 23 is fixedly connected to the fixed sealing disk 22, the movable plate 24 is movably connected to the pull rod 23, the top-pressure sealing disk 25 is fixedly connected to the movable plate 24, and the top-pressure sealing disk 25 is fixedly connected to the output end of the driver 26, and a storage space for accommodating the valve is formed between the fixed sealing disk 22 and the movable plate 24. There are two pull rods 23, and the driver 26 can be a hydraulic drive cylinder. When the valve needs to be tested, the valve to be tested can be placed in the storage space. Through the drive of the driver 26, the fixed sealing disk 22 and the movable plate 24 cooperate to clamp the valve to be tested, and the fixed locking of the valve to be tested is completed, so that the valve can be pressurized by water pressure or air pressure.

[0031] Furthermore, the loading mechanism 2 further comprises a guide rail 27 connected to the frame 21, a cover 28 movably connected to the guide rail 27, and a water storage tank 29 connected to the frame 21 and located below the accommodation space. When the valve needs to be tested, the cover 28 can be moved along the extension direction of the guide rail 27, and after the valve to be tested is fixed between the fixed sealing disk 22 and the movable plate 24, the cover 28 can be moved along the extension direction of the guide rail 27 to cover the accommodation space. The water storage tank 29 is used to receive the test water that may leak.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, each loading mechanism 2 is connected to the operating mechanism 1 through a connecting pipeline 51, and each connecting pipeline 51 is provided with a first control valve 511 and a first pressure sensor 512. The first pressure sensor 512 senses the change of the pressure in the tested valve, and the first control valve 511 can be controlled by the operating mechanism 1 to determine the test switch state of the corresponding tested valve.

[0033] The operating mechanism 1 includes a body 11 , a controller 12 arranged on the body 11 , and an input pipeline 13 connected to the body 11 . A pressure reducing valve 131 is provided on the input pipeline 13 to adjust the pressure on the input pipeline 13 . The input pipeline 13 is specifically connected to the geometric center of the fixed sealing disk 22 .

[0034] In addition, the controller 12 is connected to the loading mechanism 2, the air pressure mechanism 3 and the hydraulic mechanism 4 in communication. The specific function of the controller 12 is to control the reasonable operation of the loading mechanism 2, the air pressure mechanism 3 and the hydraulic mechanism 4, to obtain the data of each pressure sensor, analyze and display the data, and output the test results. More specifically, the controller 12 can pre-set the pressure test process flow before the operation of the valve test device of the nuclear power plant, including relevant parameters such as pressure and pressure holding time, and preset safety measures accordingly, such as liquid level alarm, abnormal alarm, overload protection, emergency pressure relief and other safety shutdown functions. The test pressure and pressure holding time in the process of each test item are controlled by the controller 12, and are recorded in the system in the form of digital and graphic curves, respectively, and the pressure content can be sampled in real time. The test report can be exported in a document format and can be edited freely. The controller 12 can save the relevant parameters of the test, so that the test parameters can be directly extracted when the same test piece and the same standard are tested in the future, without setting them again.

[0035] Furthermore, the air pressure mechanism 3 includes an air delivery pipeline 31 connected to the input pipeline 13, and the air delivery pipeline 31 is provided with an air compressor 32, a second filter 33, a second pressure sensor 34, a high-pressure gas storage tank 35, a second control valve 36 and a first check valve 37 in sequence along its air delivery direction. Specifically, the air compressor 32 is used to provide an air source, the second filter 33 is used to filter the air source, the second pressure sensor 34 is used to measure the pressure on the air delivery pipeline 31, the high-pressure gas storage tank 35 is used to store air, the second control valve 36 is used to control the on and off of the air delivery, and the first check valve 37 is used to prevent the backflow of the air delivery. In this embodiment, the air pressure that the air pressure mechanism 3 can provide can be adjusted within the range of 1 to 5 MPa.

[0036] The hydraulic mechanism 4 includes a water delivery pipeline 41 connected to the input pipeline 13. The water delivery pipeline 41 is provided with a water storage tank 42, a third filter 43, a water pump 44, a third pressure sensor 45, an accumulator 46, a third control valve 47 and a second check valve 48 in sequence along the water delivery direction. Specifically, the water storage tank 42 is used to store water and provide a water source, the third filter 43 is used to filter the water source, the water pump 44 is used to drive the flow of water, the third pressure sensor 45 is used to measure the pressure on the water delivery pipeline 41, and the accumulator 46 can convert the energy in the system into compression energy or potential energy at an appropriate time and store it. When the system needs it, the compression energy or potential energy is converted into hydraulic or gas pressure energy and released to replenish the system. The third control valve 47 is used to control the on and off of water delivery, and the second check valve 48 is used to prevent the backflow of water delivery. In this embodiment, the water pressure provided by the hydraulic mechanism 4 can be adjusted within the range of 1 to 20 MPa.

[0037] The air pressure mechanism 3 and the water pressure mechanism 4 are connected to the input pipeline 13, so that the operating mechanism 1 can switch between water pressure test and air pressure test according to different test requirements of the valve.

[0038] The valve test device of the nuclear power plant also includes a hot air blower 6, which is connected to the input pipeline 13 through a hot air pipeline 61. Since some valve tests are to avoid the entry of moisture, after a certain type of water valve is tested, it is necessary to clean the moisture in the test pipeline when switching to another gas valve. Specifically, the hot air blower 6 is used to blow high-speed hot air into the input pipeline 13 through the hot air blower 6, which can quickly clean the residual moisture in the input pipeline 13 and the connecting pipeline 51.

[0039] It can be understood that the above embodiments only express the preferred implementation methods of the utility model, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the patent scope of the utility model. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this field, without departing from the concept of the utility model, the above-mentioned technical features can be freely combined, and several deformations and improvements can be made, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes and modifications made to the scope of the claims of the utility model should fall within the scope of the claims of the utility model.
