[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of throttle valves, in particular to a pressure-adjustable throttle valve. Background Art

[0002] A throttle valve is a valve that controls fluid flow by changing the throttle section or throttle length.

[0003] In the prior art, in the process of oil and gas exploitation and transportation, in order to reduce the pressure of the high-pressure oil and gas in the well to the safe pressure of the ground transportation pipeline, it is often necessary to install a throttle valve on the ground for throttling and pressure reduction. However, the opening of the throttle port of the conventional throttle valve is certain during normal operation, and the wellhead pressure of the oil and gas well is unstable, which will cause the fluctuation of the throttle valve outlet pressure, affecting the safety of the ground transportation pipeline and related equipment; moreover, in the process of throttling and pressure reduction of the throttle valve, the temperature will be reduced, and hydrates will be easily generated, and the generated hydrates will block the throttle valve and the transportation pipeline. To this end, the utility model proposes a pressure-adjustable throttle valve to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a pressure-adjustable throttle valve to solve the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: a pressure-adjustable throttle valve, comprising: a lower valve body, a valve seat is fixedly installed in the lower valve body, a partition is arranged on one side of the valve seat, and a spring is arranged on the upper surface of the partition.

[0006] An upper valve body is installed on one side of the spring, a limit seat is provided on the top fixed sleeve of the upper valve body, an adjusting rod is provided inside the limit seat, an electric heating ring is provided on the lower side of the adjusting rod, and a valve core is installed on the lower side of the electric heating ring.

[0007] Preferably, an inlet sleeve is fixedly provided on the lower surface of the lower valve body, one side of the valve seat is fixedly connected to the support plate, and the other side of the valve seat is fixedly connected to the fixing plate.

[0008] Preferably, the support plate and the fixing plate are both fixedly connected to the inner wall of the lower valve body, a limiting strip is provided on one side of the fixing plate, and the limiting strip is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the lower valve body.

[0009] Preferably, a limiting groove is provided on one side of the partition, the limiting groove is slidably connected to the limiting strip, the other side of the partition is fixedly connected to the fixed plate, a limiting rod is provided on one side of the spring, and the top of the limiting rod is fixedly connected to the upper valve body.

[0010] Preferably, sealing strips are fixedly connected to the outer walls of the lower valve body and the upper valve body, and connecting plates are fixedly connected to the four outer corners of the lower valve body and the upper valve body. Bolts are sleeved between the two connecting plates, and nuts are threadedly connected to one end of the bolts.

[0011] Preferably, one end of the spring is fixedly connected to the partition, and the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to the top inner wall of the upper valve body. An oil outlet pipe is provided on one side of the spring, one end of the oil outlet pipe is fixedly sleeved on one side of the upper valve body, and the other end of the oil outlet pipe is fixedly sleeved with an outlet sleeve.

[0012] Preferably, the adjusting rod is threadedly connected to the limit seat, one end of the adjusting rod is fixedly connected to a handwheel, the other end of the adjusting rod is fixedly connected to one end of the insulation sleeve, the other end of the insulation sleeve is fixedly connected to the valve core, and the electric heating ring fixing sleeve is arranged on the outer ring surface of the insulation sleeve.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0014] 1. When oil and gas enter the lower valve body from the inlet sleeve of the lower valve body, the lower part of the entire lower valve body is filled with oil and gas. Because the oil and gas have a certain pressure, the oil and gas will press the partition plate to move upward and block part of the oil outlet pipe, reducing the area through which the oil and gas pass. At this time, the spring is in a compressed state: rotate the handwheel, the valve core moves upward and away from the valve seat, and the oil and gas will flow into the upper part of the valve body through the through hole on the valve seat and flow to the oil outlet pipe on one side of the upper valve body: when the pressure of the oil and gas changes, the pressure inside the lower valve body and the upper valve body changes accordingly, and the partition plate slides between the limit strip and the fixed plate to adjust the area of ​​the oil outlet pipe blocked by the block, thereby adjusting the pressure of the oil and gas passing through the upper valve body and the lower valve body. Because the flow rate is related to the area and flow rate, no matter whether the oil and gas pressure increases or decreases, the flow rate remains basically unchanged, so the pressure of the oil and gas flowing out of the oil outlet pipe can be kept basically unchanged, thereby reducing the pressure fluctuation of the valve body outlet.

[0015] 2. If the oil and gas pressure increases, the partition will move upward, increasing the area of ​​the partition blocking the oil outlet pipe. At this time, the flow rate of oil and gas through the valve body increases, and the flow rate through the oil outlet pipe of the valve body remains basically unchanged. When the oil and gas pressure continues to increase, the partition continues to move upward until the partition contacts the limit rod. The limit rod ensures that the partition will not completely block the oil outlet pipe, avoiding the problem of pressure buildup inside the valve body and ensuring the normal circulation of gas.

[0016] 3. The electric heating ring can heat the area near the valve core to maintain a certain temperature range near the valve core, avoiding excessive pressure drop at the throttle port and the formation of hydrates. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The support plate 11 and the fixed plate 12 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the lower valve body 1. A limiting strip 13 is provided on one side of the fixed plate 12, and the limiting strip 13 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the lower valve body 1. One side of the inner wall of the fixed plate 12 is fixedly connected to the limiting strip 13. A limiting groove 14 is provided on one side of the partition 3, and the limiting groove 14 is slidably connected to the limiting strip 13. The other side of the partition 3 is fixedly connected to the fixed plate 12. A limiting rod 23 is provided on one side of the spring 4, and the top of the limiting rod 23 is fixedly connected to the upper valve body 5. The partition 3 is limited by the limiting strip 13, so that the partition 3 can slide on the limiting strip 13 through the limiting groove 14.

[0027] It is fixedly connected to the output end of the oil and gas pipeline through the inlet sleeve 10. When the oil and gas enter the lower valve body 1 through the inlet sleeve 10, the bottom of the valve seat 2, the support plate 11 and the fixed plate 12 of the lower valve body 1 are filled with oil and gas. Because the oil and gas have a certain pressure, the oil and gas will move upward through the pushing partition 3. The partition 3 moves into the upper valve body 5 under the sliding connection between the limit groove 14 and the limit strip 13, and the partition 3 blocks part of the outlet pipe 19, thereby reducing the area of ​​the oil and gas passing through the oil outlet pipe 19. At this time, the spring 4 is compressed between the partition 3 and the upper valve body 5.

[0028] An upper valve body 5 is installed on one side of the spring 4, and a limit seat 6 is fixedly sleeved on the top of the upper valve body 5, and an adjusting rod 7 is sleeved inside the limit seat 6. An electric heating ring 8 is arranged on the lower side of the adjusting rod 7, and a valve core 9 is installed on the lower side of the electric heating ring 8. The limit seat 6 fixedly installed on the top of the upper valve body 5 limits the adjusting rod 7, and the adjusting rod 7 sleeved inside the limit seat 6 is convenient for driving the valve core 9 to move. The outer walls of the lower valve body 1 and the upper valve body 5 are fixedly connected with sealing strips 15 all around, and the four outer corners of the lower valve body 1 and the upper valve body 5 are fixedly connected with connecting plates 1 6. Bolts 17 are sleeved between the two connecting plates 16, and one end of the bolts 17 is threadedly connected with a nut 18. The four corners of the lower valve body 1 and the upper valve body 5 are fixedly connected with connecting plates 16. The two connecting plates 16 are fixedly connected by the cooperation of the bolts 17 and the nuts 18. A sealing strip 15 is installed at the joint between the upper valve body 5 and the lower valve body 1. The sealing strip 15 seals the lower valve body 1 and the upper valve body 5 to prevent leakage of oil. One end of the spring 4 is fixedly connected to the partition 3, and the other end of the spring 4 is fixedly connected to the upper valve body 5 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the top of the spring 4, an oil outlet pipe 19 is arranged on one side of the spring 4, one end of the oil outlet pipe 19 is fixedly sleeved on one side of the upper valve body 5, and the other end of the oil outlet pipe 19 is fixedly sleeved with an outlet sleeve 20, the spring 4 is fixedly connected between the partition plate 3 and the inner wall of the upper valve body 5, the oil outlet pipe 19 is fixedly sleeved on one side of the upper valve body 5, so as to facilitate the transportation of oil and gas, and the outlet sleeve 20 is arranged to facilitate docking with the ground pipeline, the adjusting rod 7 is threadedly connected to the limit seat 6, and one end of the adjusting rod 7 is fixedly connected with a hand wheel 21, The other end of the adjusting rod 7 is connected to one end of the heat-insulating sleeve 22, and the other end of the heat-insulating sleeve 22 is fixedly connected to the valve core 9. The electric heating ring 8 is fixedly sleeved on the outer ring surface of the heat-insulating sleeve 22. The adjusting rod 7 is installed in the limit seat 6 by a threaded connection. The hand wheel 21 fixedly installed at one end of the adjusting rod 7 is convenient for driving the rotation of the adjusting rod 7. The heat-insulating sleeve 22 fixedly installed at the other end of the adjusting rod 7 is convenient for insulating the electric heating ring 8. The bottom of the heat-insulating sleeve 22 is fixedly connected to the valve core 9, and the valve core 9 can be slidably plugged on the valve seat 2.

[0029] When oil and gas enter the lower valve body 1 from the inlet sleeve 10 and lift the partition 3 to compress the spring 4, the hand wheel 21 is twisted to drive the adjusting rod 7 to rotate. The adjusting rod 7 is threadedly connected to the limit seat 6, thereby indirectly driving the valve core 9 to move away from the support plate 11 and the fixed plate 12 by driving the insulation sleeve 22, so that the valve core 9 slides out of the valve seat 2, and the oil and gas will flow into the interior of the upper valve body 5 through the through hole opened on the valve seat 2, and flow in the direction of the oil outlet pipe 19, and then flow into the ground pipeline through the outlet sleeve 20.

[0030] In actual use, the lower valve body 1 is butted against the upper valve body 5 so that the connecting plates 16 installed on the side walls thereof are butted against each other, bolts 17 are sleeved between the two connecting plates 16, and then nuts 18 are used to tighten one end of the bolts 17, so that the lower valve body 1 is fixedly installed against the upper valve body 5. The lower valve body 1 is butted against the upper valve body 5 and a sealing strip 15 is installed, so that the sealing strip 15 is used to seal to prevent leakage of oil, and the inlet sleeve 10 is fixedly connected to the oil pipe in the well, and the outlet sleeve 20 is fixedly connected to the ground transmission pipe. When oil and gas enter the lower valve body 1 through the inlet sleeve 10, the valve seat 2, the support plate 11, and the bottom of the fixing plate 12 of the lower valve body 1 are filled with oil and gas. Because the oil and gas have a certain pressure, the oil and gas will move upward through the top movable partition plate 3. , the partition 3 moves toward the upper valve body 5 under the sliding connection between the limit groove 14 and the limit strip 13, and the partition 3 blocks part of the outlet of the oil outlet pipe 19, so that the area of ​​oil and gas passing through the oil outlet pipe 19 is reduced. At this time, the spring 4 is compressed between the partition 3 and the upper valve body 5. At this time, by twisting the hand wheel 21, the hand wheel 21 drives the adjusting rod 7 to rotate. The adjusting rod 7 is threadedly connected with the limit seat 6, thereby indirectly driving the valve core 9 to move away from the support plate 11 and the fixed plate 12 by driving the insulation sleeve 22, so that the valve core 9 slides out of the valve seat 2, and the oil and gas will flow into the interior of the upper valve body 5 through the through hole opened on the valve seat 2, and flow in the direction of the oil outlet pipe 19, and then flow into the ground pipeline through the outlet sleeve 20.

[0031] If the pressure of the oil and gas increases, the oil and gas will increase the thrust on the partition 3, so that the partition 3 continues to move upward, and then the partition 3 increases the blocking area of ​​the oil outlet pipe 19. Since the outlet area is reduced, the flow rate of the oil and gas increases, and then the flow through the oil outlet pipe 19 remains basically unchanged. When the oil and gas continue to increase, the partition 3 continues to rise until the partition 3 abuts against the limit rod 23. The limit rod 23 holds the partition 3 to ensure that the oil outlet pipe 19 will not be completely blocked by the partition 3, thereby avoiding the generation of pressure in the lower valve body 1 and the upper valve body 5, and ensuring the normal circulation of oil and gas.

[0032] If the pressure of the oil and gas decreases, due to the elastic force of the spring 4, the spring 4 will press the partition 3 to move downward, reducing the blocked area of ​​the oil outlet pipe 19. At this time, the flow speed of the oil and gas is reduced, so that the flow rate through the oil outlet pipe 19 remains basically unchanged.

[0033] The electric heating ring 8 is electrically connected to the external terminal control device. The electric heating ring 8 can heat the vicinity of the valve core 9 to maintain a certain temperature range near the valve core 9 to avoid excessive pressure drop at the throttle port and the formation of hydrates.

[0034] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
