Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of valves, in particular to a sealing ball valve. Background Art

[0002] Valves are control components in fluid transportation systems, performing functions such as shutoff, regulation, flow diversion, backflow prevention, pressure stabilization, flow diversion, and overflow / pressure relief. Depending on the shape of the valve core, valves can be categorized as ball valves, butterfly valves, and cone valves. Ball valves utilize a sphere as the opening and closing element, which is driven by a valve stem and rotates around its axis. They are primarily used to shut off or connect media in pipelines and can also be used for fluid regulation and control. Ball valves are widely used in industries such as petroleum refining, long-distance pipelines, chemicals, papermaking, pharmaceuticals, water conservancy, electric power, municipal engineering, and steel, playing a vital role in the national economy.

[0003] The sealing between the valve seat and the ball is an important criterion for determining the sealing performance of the ball valve. The valve seat in the existing technology rubs against the ball during use and is exposed to medium pressure shock for a long time. Over time, the seal is easily damaged. Once the seal is damaged, the valve cannot continue to work. Due to the delay in monitoring and maintenance, the pipeline where the valve is located often suffers huge losses. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides the following solutions:

[0005] A sealed ball valve comprises a valve body, a valve cavity is arranged in the valve body, a valve core is arranged in the valve cavity, a valve stem passes through the top end of the valve body and is connected to the valve core, a valve cover is provided on the outside of the valve stem at the top of the valve body, and a handle is connected to the top end of the valve stem; a sealing ring is provided near the liquid inlet and the liquid outlet of the valve cavity, and the inner side of the sealing ring is tightly fitted with the valve core; an inner sealing bracket is also numerically arranged in the valve cavity, the inner sealing bracket is sleeved on the outside of the valve core, the inner sealing bracket comprises an outer sealing ring and an inner sealing ring, and a leak-proof channel is provided on the bottom end of the outer sealing ring on the end face facing the liquid inlet, a liquid touch switch is provided at the bottom end of the leak-proof channel, and the liquid touch switch is electrically connected to the alarm.

[0006] Furthermore, the alarm is a warning light or a buzzer.

[0007] Furthermore, the inner sealing ring and the outer sealing ring are both welded to the valve cavity by metal, and sealing gaskets are provided between the inner sealing ring, the outer sealing ring and the valve core.

[0008] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0009] The valve core and the valve cavity form a double seal through the sealing ring and the inner sealing bracket. When the sealing ring leaks, the liquid enters the leak-proof channel on the inner sealing bracket. A liquid touch switch is set in the leak-proof channel. When it comes into contact with the liquid, the external alarm is activated to give a prompt, which has double sealing protection and is convenient for leak detection.
