[0002] Surfactants are a class of chemicals widely used in industry and daily life. During their production process, the flow rates of various reactants and products need to be strictly controlled. The butterfly valve controls the fluid flow by rotating the valve stem to open or close the valve plate.
[0003] Currently, the existing butterfly valves for surfactants on the market generally have poor external sealing effect of the valve stem. Since the valve stem needs to rotate frequently during operation, its external sealing structure is prone to wear and aging, resulting in seal failure. Seal failure will cause leakage problems, not only causing waste of surfactants, but also possibly leading to pollution of the production environment and damage to equipment. In addition, poor sealing will also affect the operation flexibility of the butterfly valve, increase the operation difficulty, and reduce the production efficiency.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a butterfly valve with a multi - seal structure to solve the above - mentioned technical defects. Content of the Utility Model
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a butterfly valve for surfactants with a multi - seal structure to solve the problem of leakage caused by seal failure mentioned in the above background technique.

Specific embodiments
[0023] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] Embodiment 1: Please refer to Figures 1-4 , a butterfly valve for surfactants with a multiple sealing structure, including a valve body 4 and an upper bearing 3. A valve stem 14 is arranged inside the valve body 4. A threaded seal seat 2 is installed at the top of the valve body 4. The valve stem 14 extends upward and is sleeved inside the threaded seal seat 2. A screw 16 is processed on the sleeved part of the valve stem 14 inside the threaded seal seat 2. A throttle grip 1 is installed at the top of the screw 16. Outer sealing structures are arranged on both sides of the screw 16; the outer sealing structures include two groups of fixing brackets 15 respectively arranged on both sides of the screw 16. Movable grooves 19 are opened inside the fixing brackets 15. Spring rods 22 are movably sleeved inside the movable grooves 19. Limit nuts 18 are installed between the spring rods 22 and the movable grooves 19. One end of the spring rod 22 is inserted into a collar 21. A movable cavity 20 is opened inside the collar 21. The spring rod 22 is embedded and movable inside the movable cavity 20. The collar 21 abuts against the screw 16. The bottom end of the valve stem 14 is installed with a lower bearing 9 outside the valve body 4. A base 8 is arranged at the bottom end of the valve body 4. The collar 21 is two semi-circular sleeves made of hard rubber. The two groups of collars 21 surround the outside of the screw 16;
[0025] Specifically, as shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown in the figure, the butterfly valve is provided with an external sealing structure on both sides of the screw rod 16. When turning the handle 1, since a screwing force will be generated on the screw rod 16, two semi-circular ring sleeves 21 are provided and combined to wrap around the outside of the screw rod 16. When the screw rod 16 is subjected to an unstable squeezing and rotating force, it will drive the ring sleeve 21 to expand out a slight distance, which can effectively prevent the sealing failure problem caused by the screwing force.
[0026] Embodiment 2: One end of the valve stem 14 is fixedly connected to a valve plate 10, and a flange ring 7 is fixedly connected to the outer circle of the valve plate 10. Inner sealing structures are provided on both sides of the flange ring 7; the inner sealing structure includes a stop edge 6 machined on the inner wall of the valve body 4, and a set of stop blocks 5 are welded on each of the left and right sides of the stop edge 6. Top blocks 12 are respectively welded on both sides of the valve plate 10, and the top blocks 12 are fitted and abutted against the stop blocks 5. The cross-section of the stop block 5 is "Z"-shaped;
[0027] Specifically, as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4 shown, when the butterfly valve is closed, the flange ring 7 abuts against the stop edge 6. By increasing the abutment of the stop block 5 and the top block 12, and through the abutment of the flange ring 7 and the stop edge 6, the double abutment of the stop block 5 and the top block 12 is increased, further improving the sealing performance of the internal flow channel, and the surfactant will not leak in the closed state.
[0028] Embodiment 3: An installation bolt 13 is fixedly connected between the valve stem 14 and the valve plate 10, a fixing screw 11 is fixedly connected between the valve plate 10 and the flange ring 7, and a thick wall 17 is provided on the inner wall of the valve body 4. The thick wall 17 is machined on the inner wall between the input and output ports. The valve plate 10 is a circular plate-shaped member made of ceramic material;
[0029] Specifically, as Figure 1 and Figure 4 shown, the valve plate 10 is made of ceramic material, reducing the adhesion of impurities and ensuring the purity of the surfactant. The outer circle of the valve plate 10 is a flange ring 7 made of metal material. The valve plate 10 and the flange ring 7 are fixed by fixing screws 11, and the valve stem 14 is fixed to the valve plate 10 by installation bolts 13.
[0030] Working principle: The surfactant enters from the inlet of the valve body 4. When the butterfly valve is closed, the flange ring 7 abuts against the stop edge 6. By increasing the abutment between the stop block 5 and the top block 12, and through the abutment between the flange ring 7 and the stop edge 6, the double abutment between the stop block 5 and the top block 12 is increased, further improving the sealing performance of the internal flow channel. In the closed state, the surfactant will not leak. When the butterfly valve is opened, the valve plate 10 rotates counterclockwise, and the stop block 5 and the top block 12 gradually separate, and the flow rate can gradually increase as the opening angle increases. The butterfly valve is provided with an external sealing structure on both sides of the screw 16. When turning the handle 1, since a screwing force will be generated on the screw 16, two semi-circular ring sleeves 21 are provided and combined to cover the outside of the screw 16. When the screw 16 is subjected to an unstable extrusion and rotational force, it will drive the ring sleeve 21 to expand out a slight distance, which can effectively prevent the sealing failure problem caused by the screwing force. The combined use of the ring sleeve 21 and the spring rod 22 enables the screw 16 to have a certain moving space when being extruded. Through the rebounding action of the spring rod 22, it is ensured that after the screwing is completed, the ring sleeve 21 can closely adhere to the screw 16, further improving the sealing effect and effectively preventing the possible leakage problem between the threaded seal seat 2 and the screw 16.
