Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of valves, and more specifically, to a flow control structure for a regulating valve. Background Art

[0002] As a core actuating element in an industrial automation control system, a regulating valve is widely used in fluid control scenarios in fields such as petrochemical industry, electric power energy, pharmaceutical and food industries. Its core function is to accurately regulate parameters such as the flow rate and pressure of pipeline media through the mechanical movement of the internal structure of the valve body. Traditional regulating valves (such as globe valves, butterfly valves, ball valves, etc.) mostly use the linear displacement or rotational angle change between the valve core and the valve seat to adjust the flow cross-sectional area, thereby controlling the flow rate.

[0003] However, in the prior art, the flow regulation of a regulating valve mostly relies on the mechanical transmission of the lead of the valve stem thread and the rotational angle of the handwheel, and uses the displacement of the valve core to adjust the flow rate. This adjustment method is more suitable for the regulation of large flow rates and cannot adapt to the environment that requires fine flow adjustment due to the problem of thread accuracy.

[0020] A flow control structure of a regulating valve, including a valve body 1. A flow channel is formed in the valve body 1. A sleeve 2, a valve core 3 and an actuator are further arranged in the valve body 1. The actuator is connected to the valve core 3 and slides in the sleeve 2 to adjust and cut off the flow channel. A plurality of regulating plates 4 are arranged in the valve body 1. The regulating plates 4 are respectively fixed to the bottom of the sleeve 2, slide in the sleeve 2, and the regulating plates 4 are symmetrically arranged on the sleeve 2. The regulating plates 4 are fixed to the bottom of the valve core 3. An elastic member 5 for connecting the regulating plates 4 is arranged on the sleeve 2. A plurality of regulating holes 41 are arranged on the regulating plates 4. When the actuator drives the valve core 3, the valve core 3 drives a plurality of regulating plates 4 to be in close contact with each other and cut off the flow channel. Adjacent regulating plates 4 seal the regulating holes 41. Refer to Figure 1 In [reference], the left side of the valve body 1 is the inlet end. During use, the fluid enters the valve body 1 from the left end. At this time, the valve is opened, and the fluid can pass through between the regulating plates 4. When the actuator starts to cut off, the valve core 3 moves downward under the action of the actuator. The regulating plates 4 on the valve core 3 squeeze and contact the lower movable regulating plates 4. At this time, the fluid can only pass through between the separated regulating plates 4 and the regulating holes 41. This is the first step of the valve's regulation of the fluid. By setting the regulating holes 41, the regulation can be made more precise. Then the valve core 3 continues to move downward until it is sealed. During this process, the regulating plates 4 are in close contact with each other to complete the seal, and the upper and lower regulating plates 4 seal the regulating holes 41. Through the cooperation of the regulating plates 4 and the regulating holes 41, the above structure can regulate the fluid more precisely when cutting off, and the number of regulating plates 4 can be set according to the actual situation.

[0021] The elastic member 5 includes a limiting groove 51 and a reset elastic piece 52. The limiting groove 51 is provided on the sleeve 2. Sliding protrusions 65 are provided at both ends of part of the adjusting plate 4. The sliding protrusions 65 slide in the limiting groove 51, and the reset elastic piece 52 is arranged in the limiting groove 51 and drives the adjusting plate 4 to reset. By providing the reset elastic piece 52 and the sliding protrusions 65, when the valve core 3 moves downward, the adjusting plate 4 can move downward to seal, with a simple structure and convenient use.

[0022] A sealing portion is formed at the bottom of the valve core 3. The sealing portion includes a plurality of moving portions 6, and adjacent moving portions 6 are slidably connected. A sealing member is provided at one end of the moving portion 6 facing the adjusting plate 4. When the actuator controls the valve core 3 to cut off, the moving portion 6 closely adheres to the adjusting plate 4 to form a seal. The provision of the sealing portion and the sealing member enhances the sealing performance of the valve body 1, so that there will be no leakage when the valve body 1 cuts off. At the same time, the moving portions 6 can slide relative to each other, enabling the sealing portion and the adjusting plate 4 to be pressed against each other again for sealing, ensuring the sealing performance of the valve body 1 after cutting off, with better and more reliable sealing.

[0023] The sealing member includes a sealing edge 61 and a sealing ring 62. The sealing edge 61 is provided on the side of the moving portion 6 facing the adjusting plate 4, and the sealing ring 62 is clamped inside the moving portion 6. The simultaneous provision of the sealing edge 61 and the sealing ring 62 enables better sealing, with a practical structure.

[0024] One end of the moving portion 6 is recessed to form a first sliding groove 63 and a second limiting sliding groove 64, and the other end forms a sliding protrusion 65 and a limiting edge 66. The end of the second limiting sliding groove 64 facing away from the first sliding groove 63 communicates with the outside. One end of the sliding protrusion 65 forms a symmetrical driving edge. When the sliding protrusion 65 is located in the first sliding groove 63, a sliding gap 67 is formed between the sliding protrusion 65 and the first sliding groove 63. The sliding gap 67 allows a certain displacement amount between the moving portions 6, enabling better pressing for sealing. At the same time, the provision of the limiting edge 66 can drive the adjacent moving portion 6 to move upward when moving upward. A plurality of through holes are also provided on the valve core; fluid can flow out during the middle stage of cutting off, with a simple and convenient structure, and it is also convenient for the valve body to cut off and open.

[0025] This specific embodiment is only an explanation of the present invention, and it is not a limitation of the present invention. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art can make modifications to this embodiment without creative contributions as needed, but as long as it is within the scope of the claims of the present invention, it is protected by the patent law.
