[0002] In a fluid control system, as an important control element, the ball valve is widely used in various industrial fields. The traditional design of the ball valve mainly focuses on its opening and closing performance and sealing performance to ensure the smooth flow and effective cut-off of the fluid in the pipeline. However, in some specific application scenarios, excessive pressure may be generated inside the ball valve due to the change of fluid pressure, which may not only damage the ball valve itself but also pose a safety hazard to the entire fluid control system.

However, these external devices not only increase the complexity and cost of the system but also may cause safety problems such as leakage due to improper connection or poor maintenance. In addition, the cooperation between the external device and the ball valve also requires precise debugging and regular maintenance, bringing an additional burden to the user. In view of this, we propose a high-sealing ball valve with an internal pressure reducing structure. Content of the Utility Model

[0024] Please refer to Figures 1-5 , the present invention provides a technical solution:

[0025] A high-sealing ball valve with an internal pressure reducing structure, including a valve body 1, a pressure relief component 3 is provided on the valve body 1, the pressure relief component 3 includes a pressure relief cylinder 30 integrally formed with the valve body 1, a channel 12 communicating with the inside of the pressure relief cylinder 30 is opened on the valve body 1, a piston 32 is provided in the pressure relief cylinder 30, a driving plate 31 is fixedly installed at the top of the piston 32, an adjusting screw rod 33 extending out of the top of the pressure relief cylinder 30 is rotatably installed at the top of the driving plate 31, the adjusting screw rod 33 is threadedly connected with the pressure relief cylinder 30, two guide rods 35 are symmetrically and fixedly connected to the top of the driving plate 31, the guide rods 35 extend out of the top of the pressure relief cylinder 30, and the outer wall of the piston 32 is in close fit with the inner wall of the pressure relief cylinder 30. Through the pressure relief component 3 provided on the valve body 1, effective control and adjustment of the internal pressure of the ball valve are realized. The piston 32 in the pressure relief component 3 is in close fit with the inner wall of the pressure relief cylinder 30, ensuring the sealing performance. At the same time, the position of the piston 32 can be conveniently adjusted through the adjusting screw rod 33, so as to realize the precise control of the internal pressure. This design not only improves the safety and reliability of the ball valve, but also enables the ball valve to adapt to more application scenarios with different pressure requirements.

[0026] As a preference of this embodiment, a connecting ring 310 is integrally formed coaxially at the bottom of the driving plate 31, and the connecting ring 310 is connected with the adjusting screw rod 33 through a bearing 311. Through the connection of the bearing 311, the adjusting screw rod 33 can rotate freely relative to the driving plate 31 without affecting the up and down movement of the piston 32, thereby improving the flexibility and convenience of operation. At the same time, the design of the connecting ring 310 also enhances the connection strength between the driving plate 31 and the adjusting screw rod 33, improving the stability of the overall structure.

[0027] Preferably in this embodiment, a screwing head 34 is integrally formed coaxially at the top end of the adjusting screw rod 33, and anti-slip lines are provided on the circumferential outer wall of the screwing head 34. The design of the screwing head 34 makes the adjusting screw rod 33 easier to operate manually, and the setting of the anti-slip lines increases the friction between the hand and the screwing head 34, preventing slippage during operation and improving the safety and accuracy of the operation.

[0028] Preferably in this embodiment, sealing gaskets 11 are provided at the contact positions between the valve core 10 in the valve body 1 and the inner part of the valve housing, and external connectors 2 are provided at both ends of the valve body 1. The setting of the sealing gaskets 11 further improves the sealing performance of the ball valve and prevents the leakage of internal media. The design of the external connectors 2 enables the ball valve to be conveniently connected to other pipelines or devices, improving the versatility and applicability of the ball valve.

[0029] Preferably in this embodiment, the external connector 2 includes a flange plate 20 integrally formed with the valve body 1 and an annular gasket 25 used in cooperation with the flange plate 20. An annular pressing plate 22 is provided on the flange plate 20. An annular threaded plate 23 is coaxially welded to the outer wall of the annular pressing plate 22 on the side close to the valve body 1, and four notches 230 are symmetrically formed on the annular threaded plate 23. The provided annular pressing plate 22 can further press the annular gasket 25 after the flange plate 20 is connected to the external pipeline to effectively improve the sealing performance, and the annular threaded plate 23 is used to drive the annular pressing plate 22 to move.

[0030] Preferably in this embodiment, a placement groove 200 for placing the annular pressing plate 22 and a through hole 201 for the annular threaded plate 23 to pass through are formed on the flange plate 20. When the annular pressing plate 22 is located in the placement groove 200, its outer wall is in close fit with the outer wall of the flange plate 20. The design of the placement groove 200 and the through hole 201 enables the annular pressing plate 22 to be firmly installed on the flange plate 20, and at the same time ensures the close fit between the annular pressing plate 22 and the flange plate 20, further improving the sealing performance and stability of the external connector 2.

[0031] Preferably in this embodiment, thread lines are provided on the outer wall of the annular threaded plate 23, and a driving nut 24 threadedly connected to the outer wall of the annular threaded plate 23 is rotatably installed on the outer wall of the flange plate 20 on the side close to the valve body 1. The design of the thread lines and the driving nut 24 enables the annular driving plate 31 to be conveniently moved by rotating the driving nut 24, thereby realizing the driving of the annular pressing plate 22.

[0032] Preferably, in this embodiment, a plurality of mounting holes 21 are provided on the flange 20 at equal intervals, and at least six mounting holes 21 are provided. The design of the mounting holes 21 enables the flange 20 to be more conveniently connected to external equipment or pipelines through bolts or other connecting parts. The equal interval setting ensures the uniformity and stability of the connection, and improves the overall strength and reliability of the ball valve.

[0033] When the high-sealing ball valve with an internal pressure reducing structure of the present utility model is in use:

[0034] Pressure regulation and control: When the internal pressure of the ball valve rises to the level that needs to be adjusted, the operator adjusts the position of the piston 32 by rotating the knob 34 on the adjusting screw rod 33. Since the adjusting screw rod 33 is threadedly connected to the pressure relief cylinder 30, rotating the adjusting screw rod 33 will cause the piston 32 to move up and down in the pressure relief cylinder 30. The driving plate 31 fixedly connected to the top of the piston 32 moves together with the piston 32, and the guide rod 35 on the driving plate 31 ensures the linearity and stability of the movement of the piston 32. The close fit between the outer wall of the piston 32 and the inner wall of the pressure relief cylinder 30 ensures the sealing performance during the pressure relief process and prevents pressure leakage. When the piston 32 moves upward, the space in the pressure relief cylinder 30 increases, and part of the pressure inside the ball valve enters the pressure relief cylinder 30 through the channel 12 and is released, thereby realizing the effective control and adjustment of the internal pressure of the ball valve.

[0035] High sealing performance: Sealing gaskets 11 are provided at the contact positions between the valve core 10 in the valve body 1 and the inside of the valve housing, which further improves the sealing performance of the ball valve and prevents the leakage of internal media. At the same time, the external connectors 2 at both ends of the valve body 1 are designed to enable the ball valve to be conveniently connected to other pipelines or equipment, improving the versatility and applicability of the ball valve.

[0036] High-sealing connection of the external connector 2: The external connector 2 includes a flange 20 integrally formed with the valve body 1 and an annular gasket 25 used in cooperation with the flange 20. After the flange 20 is connected to the external pipeline, the annular pressing plate 22 will further compress the annular gasket 25, effectively improving the sealing performance. The thread lines on the annular threaded plate 23 cooperate with the driving nuts 24 on the flange 20, enabling the annular pressing plate 22 to be conveniently moved by rotating the driving nuts 24, thereby realizing the tight compression of the annular gasket 25.

[0037] In summary, the high-sealing ball valve with an internal pressure reducing structure of the present utility model realizes the effective control and adjustment of the internal pressure of the ball valve through the design of the pressure relief assembly 3. At the same time, through other optimized designs, the sealing performance, operation flexibility and connection stability of the ball valve are improved, enabling the ball valve to adapt to more application scenarios with different pressure requirements.
