Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of machinery, in particular to valve technology, and specifically to a two-way butterfly valve with elastic hard sealing. Background Art

[0002] In the prior art, hard-seal butterfly valves can be categorized by their sealing structure into two types: pure metal-sealed and multi-layered. Pure metal-sealed butterfly valves rely on a perfect fit between the valve seat and the disc seal ring on the valve body when the valve is closed to achieve a secure seal. Their main drawbacks are: the valve seat material is susceptible to fatigue and wear during frequent opening and closing, failing to achieve a perfect seal. Under high-temperature conditions, the valve seat is prone to annealing and deformation, also failing to meet sealing requirements. The valve seal pair is a surface seal, requiring extremely high processing requirements, significantly limiting its service life and range. In contrast, the multi-layered butterfly valve's disc seal pair is constructed of alternately bonded metal and rubber asbestos. When the disc is open, the medium's flow rate erodes the rubber asbestos, degrading the valve's sealing performance over time. Consequently, both butterfly valve structures suffer from unreliable sealing performance and a short service life. Therefore, an improved technology is urgently needed to address these issues in the prior art. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a two-way butterfly valve with an elastic hard seal, which adopts an elastic butterfly plate sealing ring structure with a sealing gasket.

[0020] Assembly method and operating principle: First, put the butterfly plate sealing ring 4 and sealing gasket 17 on the corresponding side of the butterfly plate 3, with the sealing gasket 17 located between the butterfly plate sealing ring 4 and the butterfly plate 3. Then, connect the pressure ring 16 to the butterfly plate 3 with bolts, and press the butterfly plate sealing ring 4 between the butterfly plate 3 and the pressure ring 16 through the pressure ring 16. Then, insert the spring 14 into each spring insertion hole of the movable valve seat 5, and then put the O-ring 18 into the annular groove on the outer periphery of the movable valve seat 5. Then, put the movable valve seat 5 into the valve body 1 from the left flow channel 11 and move it to the right flow channel 12. Then, put the butterfly plate 3 into the valve body 1 from the left flow channel 11 and move it to the right flow channel 12. At the same time, apply pressure to press the pressure ring 16 against the movable valve seat 5. Place the packing 10 into the packing groove on the upper part of the valve body 1, then install the packing gland 6 on the top of the valve body 1 with bolts and press the packing 10, and pass the valve stem 2 connected to the turbine box 7 from top to bottom through the packing gland 6, packing 10, valve body 1 and butterfly plate 3 until the bottom of the valve stem 2 is inserted into the shaft groove 8 and matched with the split ring 19. The split ring 19 is limited to the bottom of the shaft groove 8, align the holes and connect the valve stem 2 and butterfly plate 3 with bolts, and install the end cover 9 at the same time to complete the assembly. An elastically deformable sealing gasket 17 is provided between the butterfly plate sealing ring 4 and the butterfly plate 3, and the elastic sealing gasket 17 is composed of the butterfly plate sealing ring 4 pressed onto the outer side of the butterfly plate 3 through the pressing ring 16, so the butterfly plate sealing ring 4 has a certain amount of floating in both radial and axial directions.

The movable valve seat 5 can float axially under the action of external force, and the butterfly plate sealing ring 4 can float axially and radially under the action of external force. During the valve closing process, the butterfly plate sealing ring 4 can automatically be squeezed to a position where the circumferential sealing pressure is small, automatically adjust the circumferential sealing pressure of the sealing surface to be uniform, and maintain the seal. When the valve is in the open state, under the action of the medium pressure and the elastic deformation of the sealing gasket 17, the movable valve seat 5 can automatically adjust the interference between it and the butterfly plate sealing ring 4 through the spring 14. When the sealing surface of the butterfly valve is worn, due to the elastic deformation of the sealing gasket 17, the cooperation of the sealing surface of the butterfly plate sealing ring can be adjusted to achieve a sealing fit with the sealing surface of the movable valve seat 5, thereby extending the service life of the product.
