DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, a multiple-seal compensated ball valve comprises a main valve body 1 and an auxiliary valve body 2 having a flow channel 3, wherein the main valve body 1 and the auxiliary valve body 2 are connected via bolts; further comprising a valve seat 4 arranged in the main valve body 1 and the auxiliary valve body 2, and a ball 5 located in the flow channel 3, wherein the upper and lower parts of the ball 5 are connected to the main valve body 1 and the auxiliary valve body 2, and the valve seat 4 is located between the outer wall of the ball 5 and the inner walls of the main valve body 1 and the auxiliary valve body 2 to seal the connection between the ball 5 and the main valve body 1 and the auxiliary valve body 2; further comprising a valve stem 6 connected to the ball 5, a shell 7 bolted to the main valve body 1 and having a channel 8, and a transmission shaft 9 fixedly connected to the valve stem 6 and passing through the channel 8, wherein a handle 10 is connected to the top of the transmission shaft 9.

[0025] When the valve is in use, the handle 10 transmits power to drive the transmission shaft 9, and the transmission shaft 9 drives the valve stem 6 and the ball 5 to rotate 90 degrees, thereby realizing the opening and closing functions of the valve.

[0026] Among them, the valve seat 4 serves as the first seal closest to the flow channel 3. The valve seat 4 is made of any polymer material among RPTFE enhanced polytetrafluoroethylene, PEEK, and PPL, and the valve seat 4 can perform preliminary sealing on the ball 5 in both the upper and lower directions to achieve bidirectional sealing and achieve zero leakage of the medium.

[0027] The multi-seal compensation ball valve also includes a lower packing 11 installed between the main valve body 1 and the valve stem 6, and an upper packing 12 installed between the housing 7 and the transmission shaft 9. A lower sealing pair is formed between the valve stem 6 and the lower packing 11, and an upper sealing pair is formed between the transmission shaft 9 and the upper packing 12. The upper sealing pair and the lower sealing pair form a multiple combined packing seal to prevent the valve from leaking out. The upper sealing pair and the lower sealing pair serve as the second seal to further improve the sealing performance of the valve.

[0028] And, if Figure 2As shown, the upper filler 12 and the lower filler 11 respectively include an upper filler 23, a middle filler 24 and a lower filler 25 from top to bottom. Figure 2 The diagram is a schematic diagram of the layer structure using the lower packing 12 as an example. The upper packing 12 and the lower packing 11 are respectively provided with an upper preload disc spring 13 and a lower preload disc spring 14 for applying preload force thereto. The upper preload disc spring 13 applies preload force to the three layers of packing on the upper packing 12, and the lower preload disc spring 14 applies preload force to the three layers of packing on the lower packing 11, to prevent the packing from leaking out due to temperature alternation and ensure the sealing of the valve stem 6. The preload disc spring, as the third seal, can further improve the sealing of the valve on the basis of the packing.

[0029] Back to Figure 1 The multi-seal compensation ball valve also includes a ball valve 15 installed on the housing 7. A cavity 16 is provided in the ball valve 15. A through hole 17 connected to the channel 8 is provided on one side of the housing 7. One end of the ball valve 15 is inserted into the through hole 17 so that the cavity 16 is connected to the through hole 17. If leakage occurs in the packing part, the ball valve 15 is opened and non-toxic inert gas such as nitrogen is forcibly pressed inward. The nitrogen enters the channel 8 in the housing 7 through the cavity 16 and the through hole 17 to achieve forced sealing, prevent the leakage of toxic media, and reduce the leakage of harmful substances. Forced nitrogen pressing is the last seal as a compensation sealing measure.

[0030] Combined with the above-mentioned multiple combined seals, the sealing performance of the valve is effectively improved as a whole.

[0031] In addition, a gasket 18 is provided between the main valve body 1 and the auxiliary valve body 2. The gasket 18 is used to ensure the tightness between the main valve body 1 and the auxiliary valve body 2 to prevent leakage of the medium.

[0032] A first positioning sleeve 19 and a second positioning sleeve 20 are provided between the valve stem 6 and the main valve body 1, and the first positioning sleeve 19 and the second positioning sleeve 20 are located at the upper and lower parts of the lower packing 11 and the lower preload disc spring 14. The first positioning sleeve 19 and the second positioning sleeve 20 cooperate to realize the double positioning of the valve stem 6, ensure the concentricity of the valve stem 6 and the valve body, and prevent the valve stem 6 from being strained. A third positioning sleeve 21 and a fourth positioning sleeve 22 are provided between the transmission shaft 9 and the housing 7, and the third positioning sleeve 21 and the fourth positioning sleeve 22 are located at the upper and lower parts of the upper packing 12 and the upper preload disc spring 13. Similarly, the third positioning sleeve 21 and the fourth positioning sleeve 22 cooperate to realize the double positioning of the transmission shaft 9, ensure the concentricity of the transmission shaft 9 and the housing 7, and prevent the transmission shaft 9 from being strained.

[0033] Furthermore, if Figure 3As shown, a limiting rod 26 is provided at the bottom of the valve stem 6, and an annular groove 27 is provided on the inner wall of the main valve body 1. The limiting rod 26 extends radially toward the main valve body 1 so that the limiting rod 26 is limited in the annular groove 27. The limiting rod 26 and the annular groove 27 cooperate with each other to prevent the valve stem 6 from flying out and avoid accidental injury.

[0034] A positioning block 28 is provided at the bottom of the limiting rod 26, and the positioning block 28 is inserted into the ball 5 for positioning. The insertion positioning structure prevents the ball 5 from being displaced too much, thereby ensuring the sealing performance of the valve.

[0035] In one possible embodiment, the valve stem 6, the limit rod 26, and the positioning block 28 are an integrated structure. The integrated structure is formed by integral injection molding, which is convenient for production. In another possible embodiment, the valve stem 6, the limit rod 26, and the positioning block 28 are a split structure, and the valve stem 6 and the limit rod 26, and the limit rod 26 and the positioning block 28 can be fixedly connected by bolts. The split structure is convenient for replacement when the components are damaged, saving costs.

[0036] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions under the concept of the present invention belong to the protection scope of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, some improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of the present invention should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
