Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of semi-spherical valves, and specifically relates to a self-locking semi-spherical valve. Background Technique
[0002] The semi-spherical valve is a common type of valve, which is widely used in the fields of chemical industry, petroleum, gas and metallurgy. The semi-spherical valve has a beautiful appearance and is easy to operate. However, there are still some defects in the actual use of the semi-spherical valve.
[0003] The valve core structure inside the semi-spherical valve is prone to looseness under the scouring action of the medium introduced into the valve shell, which results in poor plugging and protection effects of the device. Moreover, it does not have a self-lubricating structure, and the valve core is prone to large wear during repeated movements. Based on this, we propose a new type of self-locking semi-spherical valve, which has a double self-locking protection structure and a lubrication protection structure, improving the use effect. Content of the Utility Model
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a self-locking semi-spherical valve to solve the problems raised in the above background technique.
[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solution: A self-locking semi-spherical valve, including a lower semi-spherical valve shell and a machine shell. The top of the lower semi-spherical valve shell is provided with an upper valve shell. The inside of the upper valve shell is movably connected with a valve core matching the lower semi-spherical valve shell. The machine shell is welded to one side of the top of the upper valve shell. The inside of the machine shell is movably connected with a worm gear welded to the valve core. One end of the worm gear inside the machine shell is movably connected with a worm. One side of the worm is provided with an operating handle. A composite rubber spring is fixed inside the machine shell. One side of the composite rubber spring is connected with a self-locking plug matching the operating handle. A pressing piece is welded to the side of the self-locking plug close to the composite rubber spring. Flange plates are welded to both ends of the lower semi-spherical valve shell. A lubricating oil storage box communicated with the valve core is fixed to the top of the machine shell. Oil discharge holes are evenly arranged on the outer side wall of the valve core. A ball is movably connected inside the oil discharge hole.
[0006] Preferably, assembly plates are welded to the bottom of the upper valve shell and the top of the lower semi-spherical valve shell. Screws are evenly screwed on the assembly plates, making it convenient to disassemble, assemble and maintain between the upper valve shell and the lower semi-spherical valve shell by using the assembly plates.
[0007] Preferably, a rubber sealing layer is vulcanized and connected to the assembly plate, improving the sealing effect when the upper valve shell and the lower semi-spherical valve shell are assembled.
[0008] Preferably, a silicone rubber sealing ring is inlaid on the side of the flange plate away from the lower semi-spherical valve shell, improving the sealing performance when the flange plate is installed.
[0009] Preferably, a threaded mounting groove is provided inside the flange, and a stainless steel filter screen is threadedly connected to the threaded mounting groove, so that the flange can provide filtering and anti-blocking protection for the inside of the lower hemispherical valve housing.
[0010] Preferably, nano-ceramic anti-adhesion layers are provided on the outer side wall of the stainless steel filter screen and the inner side walls of the upper valve housing and the lower hemispherical valve housing, which improves the wear-resistant and anti-adhesion properties of the stainless steel filter screen, the upper valve housing and the lower hemispherical valve housing.
[0011] Preferably, the valve core has a hollow structure, and the bottom of the lubricating oil storage box is communicated with the inside of the valve core.
[0012] Preferably, the worm longitudinally penetrates through one side of the machine housing, and a dismountable installation structure is formed between the operating handle and the worm through screws.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:
[0014] (1) By installing a self-locking insert block and the like, the self-locking semi-spherical valve optimizes its own structure. On the one hand, the user can rotate the operating handle, drive the worm to move, and then drive the valve core to move to realize the opening and closing operation based on the transmission action formed by the worm and the worm gear. Moreover, by using the self-locking function of the worm gear and the worm, it is ensured that the valve core will not drive the worm to move in the direction of the worm gear due to the action of medium scouring, which enables the device to achieve good self-locking and anti-loosening protection. On the other hand, the user can press the pressing piece, so that the self-locking insert block compresses the composite rubber spring. At this time, the self-locking insert block will disengage from the inner groove of the operating handle. Then, the user can rotate the operating handle to control the opening and closing of the device. Subsequently, when the pressing piece is released, the self-locking insert block can be embedded in the rotating operating handle and pressed tightly under the elastic action of the composite rubber spring for self-locking limit protection, which enables the device to achieve two-stage self-locking protection and effectively avoids the loosening problem caused by the valve core being scoured by the medium.
[0015] (2) By installing an upper valve housing and the like, the self-locking semi-spherical valve optimizes its own performance. When the valve core rotates inside the upper valve housing and the lower hemispherical valve housing to realize opening and closing control, the balls on the upper surface of the valve core will roll accordingly, thereby bringing out the oil liquid in the oil discharge hole communicated with the lubricating oil storage box, realizing the lubrication protection for the moving surfaces between the valve core and the upper valve housing and the lower hemispherical valve housing. This is beneficial to protecting the valve core, reducing the wear influence, and extending the service life of the valve core.
[0016] (3) The self-locking hemispherical valve is equipped with a flange plate, etc. When the device is actually used, on the one hand, a silicone rubber sealing ring is inlaid on the side of the flange plate away from the lower hemispherical valve housing, which improves the sealing performance during the installation of the flange plate. On the other hand, a threaded installation groove is provided inside the flange plate, and a stainless steel filter screen is threadedly connected to the threaded installation groove, so that the flange plate can provide filtering and anti-blocking protection for the inside of the lower hemispherical valve housing.

During actual operation, the user can rotate the operating handle 6 to drive the worm 11 to move, and then based on the transmission action formed by the worm 11 and the worm gear 12, drive the valve core 9 to move to realize the opening and closing operation. And by using the self-locking function of the worm gear 12 and the worm 11, it is ensured that the valve core 9 will not drive the worm gear 12 to push the worm 11 to move due to the action of medium erosion. This enables the device to achieve good self-locking and anti-loosening protection.
