Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of gate valves, in particular to a gate valve structure with leakage prevention. Background Technique

[0002] A gate valve is a device or equipment used to control the flow of fluids (such as liquids, gases, powders, etc.). It controls the flow rate and pressure of the fluid by opening, closing or adjusting. It is usually composed of a valve body, a valve cover, a valve core and matching seals, etc., and is widely used in many industrial fields such as petrochemical, electric power, water treatment, pharmaceutical, food processing, etc.

[0003] During the use of the existing gate valve, generally, a person needs to manually rotate a turntable, and the turntable drives the valve stem below to make the plugging structure move, so as to determine the opening and closing of the valve port. However, after long-term use, due to repeated friction between the valve stem and the valve body, the valve stem is prone to wear. A gap will be generated between the worn valve stem and the valve body, resulting in the problem of leakage of the valve after long-term use.

[0004] Based on this, a gate valve structure with leakage prevention is now provided, which can eliminate the drawbacks of the existing device. Content of the Utility Model

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a gate valve structure with leakage prevention to solve the problems in the background technique.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0023] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present utility model more clear and understandable, the present utility model will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0024] In one embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, a leak-proof gate valve structure includes a valve body 100, a valve cover base 200 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the valve body 100, a valve cover 300 is bolted to the upper end of the valve cover base 200, a valve stem 400 is arranged in the valve cover 300, a plugging component 500 is arranged in the valve body 100, and a sealing component 600 is arranged in the valve cover base 200. During use, by rotating the valve stem 400, the plugging component 500 is driven to control the opening and closing of the valve body 100, and the sealing component 600 is used to prevent fluid from leaking from the valve stem 400.

[0025] In one embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, the valve body 100 is an ellipsoidal structure that is thick in the middle and thin at both ends. Connecting pipes 101 are arranged at both ends of the valve body 100, and a convex ring 102 is arranged on the inner wall of the valve body 100. During use, the valve body 100 is connected to the pipeline through the connecting pipes 101, and the plugging effect of the plugging component 500 can be improved through the convex ring 102.

[0026] In one embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, the valve stem 400 is threadedly connected to the valve cover 300. The lower end of the valve stem 400 penetrates through the valve cover base 200 and the sealing component 600 and extends into the valve body 100. During use, by rotating the valve stem 400, the valve stem 400 moves up and down, driving the plugging component 500 to control the opening and closing of the valve body 100.

[0027] In one embodiment, as Figure 4 shown, a tapered head 401 is arranged at the lower end of the valve stem 400, a handwheel 402 is arranged at the top of the valve stem 400, a first fixing ring 403 is fixedly connected to the middle of the valve stem 400, and a second fixing ring 404 is arranged below the first fixing ring 403. During use, by rotating the handwheel 402, the valve stem 400 is driven to rotate, and the valve stem 400 moves up and down, so as to drive the plugging component 500 to control the opening and closing of the valve body 100 through the tapered head 401.

[0028] In one embodiment, as Figure 3As shown in the figure, the plugging assembly 500 includes two fixed ring plates 501 symmetrically fixed inside the valve body 100. There are two fixed rods 502 symmetrically arranged between the fixed ring plates 501. Two plugging members are slidably mounted on the fixed rods 502. The plugging members are connected by a spring 506. The spring 506 is sleeved on the fixed rod 502. During use, the valve stem 400 drives the conical head 401 to move downward, driving the plugging members to move along the fixed rods 502 to both sides, so that the plugging members plug the connecting pipes 101 at both ends, realizing the closing of the gate valve. When the valve stem 400 drives the conical head 401 to move upward, under the action of the spring 506, the plugging members move along the fixed rods 502 toward the middle, releasing the plugging of the connecting pipes 101 at both ends and opening the gate valve.

[0029] In one embodiment, as Figure 3 shown, the plugging member includes a sliding seat 503 slidably mounted on the fixed rod 502. A connecting column 504 is provided on one side of the sliding seat 503. One end of the connecting column 504 is fixedly connected with a rubber sealing block 505. A conical groove 507 is provided at the upper end of the sliding seat 503. During use, the valve stem 400 drives the conical head 401 to move downward, so that the conical head 401 moves downward along the conical groove 507, squeezing the sliding seat 503, and making the sliding seat 503 move along the fixed rod 502 to both sides, so that the rubber sealing block 505 blocks the connecting pipes 101 at both ends.

[0030] In one embodiment, as Figure 4 shown, the sealing assembly 600 includes a bellows 601 provided inside the valve cover base 200. The bellows 601 is sleeved on the valve stem 400. The bellows 601 is provided between the first fixed ring 403 and the second fixed ring 404. Sealing rings 602 are respectively provided at the upper and lower ends of the bellows 601. The inside of the bellows 601 is filled with sealing packing. When the valve stem 400 moves up and down, it simultaneously drives the first fixed ring 403 and the second fixed ring 404 to move, and squeezes the bellows 601, and the bellows 601 squeezes the sealing packing inside.

[0031] In one embodiment, the sealing packing is made of flexible graphite. Flexible graphite has good high-temperature resistance, corrosion resistance and resilience. When the valve stem 400 moves up and down to control the opening and closing of the gate valve, the bellows 601 applies a squeezing force to the flexible graphite, making the flexible graphite closely adhere to the valve stem 400, thereby preventing fluid from leaking from the valve stem 400.

[0032] The above embodiment discloses a leak-proof gate valve structure. When closing the gate valve, rotate the handwheel 402 to drive the valve stem 400 to rotate, causing the valve stem 400 to move downward. The valve stem 400 drives the cone head 401 to move downward, causing the cone head 401 to move downward along the conical groove 507, squeezing the sliding seat 503, and causing the sliding seat 503 to move toward both sides along the fixed rod 502, so that the rubber sealing block 505 blocks the connecting pipes 101 at both ends. At the same time, the first fixing ring 403 squeezes the corrugated pipe 601 downward, making the flexible graphite closely attached to the valve stem 400. When opening the gate valve, rotate the handwheel 402 to move the valve stem 400 upward, driving the cone head 401 away from the sliding seat 503. Through the action of the spring 506, the sliding seat 503 moves toward the middle along the fixed rod 502, thus releasing the blockage of the connecting pipe 101 by the rubber sealing block 505. At the same time, the second fixing ring 404 squeezes the corrugated pipe 601 upward, making the flexible graphite closely attached to the valve stem 400.

[0033] As described above, the above are only specific embodiments of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present application can easily think of changes or substitutions, which should all be covered by the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
