Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of sealing butterfly plates, in particular to a double-sealing butterfly valve which can prevent a pressure ring screw from loosening. Background Art

[0002] The butterfly plate, also known as the flap valve, is a control element used to regulate or cut off the medium in the fluid pipeline system. It has good wear resistance, corrosion resistance and safety. It is widely used in metallurgy, mining, electric power, petroleum, chemical industry, light industry, environmental protection, urban construction, shipbuilding, food, medicine and national defense research.

[0003] In the existing technology, such as the Chinese patent with publication number CN103574075A, it discloses a soft-sealed telescopic butterfly valve, including a valve body, a valve stem installed in the valve body, a packing gland between the valve stem and the valve body, a valve plate connected to the valve stem, a soft sealing gasket between the valve plate and the valve body, the soft sealing gasket fixed inside the valve body, valve body flanges on both sides of the valve body, a telescopic tube movably connected to an axially movable inner cavity of one side of the valve body, a telescopic tube flange is provided on the outer side of the telescopic tube away from the valve body along the circumferential direction, a pressure ring and a rubber ring are provided at the contact point between the outer side of the telescopic tube and the valve body, the pressure ring fixes the rubber ring between the telescopic tube and the valve body by fixing screws, the telescopic tube flange and the valve body flange are fixed by bolts, and the inner wall of one end of the telescopic tube located inside the valve body is an inclined surface. The soft-sealed telescopic butterfly valve of the present invention is convenient for loading and unloading and maintenance, has high interchangeability with ordinary butterfly valves, has a simple structure, a reasonable design, and is economical and practical.

[0004] The above-mentioned prior art solutions have the following defects: when the valve is switched at high frequency or subjected to a large medium pressure, the soft sealing gasket between the valve plate and the valve body will be subjected to a large extrusion force and shear force. If the design or material selection of the soft sealing gasket is improper, these forces may be indirectly transmitted through the valve plate to the components directly or indirectly connected to the valve plate, including the fixing screws. In particular, when there are design defects or wear at the connection between the valve plate and the valve stem, the transmission of this force may be more significant. Due to the existence of the above-mentioned force transmission path, the fixing screws may be subjected to additional alternating stresses. Under high-frequency switching or long-term operation, these alternating stresses may cause the screws to loosen. In addition, if the material, preload force or installation process of the fixing screws is improper, the risk of loosening will also increase. Once the fixing screws loosen and fall off, it will not only affect the sealing performance of the valve, but also the fallen screws may fall into the pipeline, causing blockage, wear and even more serious safety accidents to the pipeline system. In particular, this effect is more significant in high-pressure and high-speed flowing media. Utility Model Content

[0026] Embodiment 1:

[0027] like Figure 1 A double-sealed butterfly valve for preventing a pressing ring screw from loosening comprises a valve body 2 and a valve stem 6, wherein the valve stem 6 is rotatably arranged in the valve body 2, and a butterfly plate 4 is detachably fixedly connected to the valve stem 6, and the butterfly plate 4 is arranged in the valve body 2 and matched with the inner wall thereof, and sealing rings 3 are detachably fixedly arranged on the edges on both sides of the butterfly plate 4, and a pressing ring 5 detachably fixedly connected to the butterfly plate 4 is arranged on the outer side of the sealing ring 3, and the pressing ring 5 is used to fix the sealing ring 3 on the butterfly plate 4, and a plurality of fasteners 51 and a plurality of supporting members 7 are detachably fixed on the circumferential side of the pressing ring 5, and the fastener 51 is used to detachably fix the pressing ring 5 on the butterfly plate 4, and the supporting member 7 is detachably fixed on the pressing ring 5 and one end of the supporting member 7 abuts against the outer side of the butterfly plate 4. The pressure ring 5 is detachably fixed to the butterfly plate 4 by the fastener 51, and one end of the support member 7 is abutted against the outer side of the butterfly plate 4. The setting of the support member 7 provides additional supporting force and forms a pair of balancing forces with the tightening force of the fastener. This double fixing method greatly enhances the stability of the pressure ring 5, effectively prevents the loosening of the pressure ring and the screw, makes the whole structure more stable, and reduces loosening or damage caused by uneven force.

[0028] like Figure 3 The support member 7 is preferably a bolt 72, which is threadedly connected to the pressure ring 5, and one end of the bolt 72 passes through the pressure ring 5 and abuts against the surface of the butterfly plate 4. Figure 4, multiple fasteners 51 and support members 7 are evenly spaced and distributed around the pressing ring 5. When the screws 53 and bolts 71 are tightened, they interact with each other, which can not only prevent the screws 53 from loosening and falling off due to the impact of the medium, but also provide additional supporting force for the pressing ring 5, preventing the pressing ring 5 from being deformed or loosened due to the pressure or vibration of the medium, and preventing the screws 53 from being easily loosened, falling off, and falling into the pipeline, affecting the performance of the double-sealing butterfly plate 4, and causing safety accidents.

[0029] like Figure 2 The fastener 51 is preferably a screw 53, one end of the screw 53 passes through the pressing ring 5 and is threadedly connected to the butterfly plate 4. The peripheral edge of the pressing ring 5 is provided with a plurality of mounting holes 52 matching the screws, and one end of the screw 53 is screwed into the butterfly plate 4 through the mounting holes 52. The pressing ring 5 is firmly fixed on the butterfly plate 4 to ensure that the sealing ring 3 can maintain stable sealing performance under extreme working conditions and prevent it from loosening under high pressure or vibration environment.

[0030] A first groove 41 is provided on the edge of the pressure ring 5 close to the sealing ring 3, and second grooves 42 opposite to the first groove 41 are provided on the edges of both sides of the butterfly plate 4. The first groove 41 and the second groove 42 form a limiting ring groove 43. A limiting block 31 matching the limiting ring groove 43 is integrally formed and fixedly connected to the sealing ring 3. When the sealing ring 3 is installed in place, the limiting block 31 is clamped by the limiting ring groove 43, thereby achieving stable fixation and sealing of the sealing ring 3, ensuring that the sealing ring 3 can be accurately positioned during the installation process to prevent leakage caused by misalignment.

[0031] The edge of the sealing ring 3 gradually shrinks toward the center to form a protrusion 32, and the protrusion 32 presses against the inner wall of the valve body 2. When the butterfly plate 4 is closed, these protrusions 32 can press more tightly against the inner wall of the valve body 2, thereby increasing the contact pressure between the sealing ring 3 and the inner wall of the valve body 2 and improving the sealing effect, reducing the risk of leakage, and forming a more effective sealing structure.

[0032] like Figure 1 , a bottom cover 1 is provided at the bottom of the valve body 2, and the bottom cover 1 and the valve body 2 are detachably fixedly connected. Good sealing needs to be ensured between the bottom cover 1 and the valve body 2 to prevent leakage of the medium. Therefore, a sealing gasket is usually provided at the connection or a sealing material such as a sealant is used to ensure the sealing effect of the connection. Fasteners such as bolts 71, nuts, screws 53 can be used to tightly connect the bottom cover 1 and the valve body 2 together through the screwing action of the thread. This connection method is simple and reliable, and is easy to disassemble and maintain.

[0033] The embodiments of this specific implementation method are all preferred embodiments of the utility model, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
