Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a valve, in particular to a top-mounted valve with a valve seat that is easy to disassemble and assemble, and belongs to the technical field of valves. Background Art

[0002] Valves are control components in fluid delivery systems, with functions such as shutoff, regulation, flow diversion, backflow prevention, pressure stabilization, flow diversion or overflow pressure relief. Valves used in fluid control systems come in a wide variety of varieties and specifications, from the simplest shutoff valves to the various valves used in extremely complex automatic control systems. Valves can be used to control the flow of various types of fluids, such as air, water, steam, various corrosive media, mud, oil, liquid metals, and radioactive media.

[0003] The country develops clean energy to gradually replace the more polluting traditional energy, especially liquefied natural gas (LNG) and liquefied petroleum gas as an emerging energy source. At the same time, more similar ultra-low temperature working media are derived, among which LNG, CNG, liquid oxygen, liquid nitrogen and liquid hydrogen are the most widely used. With the increase in demand for ultra-low temperature valves, the structural design and process design must also be able to meet the new working conditions.

[0004] There are two common methods for assembling the valve body and valve seat of traditional valves. The first method is welding, which involves surfacing a stainless steel layer on the sealing surface of the valve body or welding a stainless steel ring to the sealing surface to form a valve seat, and then processing it to the size and roughness required by the design. The second method is mechanical fixing, which involves fixing the stainless steel valve seat to the valve body mechanically. The valve seats of the above two methods have low installation efficiency when working online, and it is inconvenient to replace the valve seat when it is worn. Utility Model Content
