Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of valves, and in particular relates to a blind plug for a flange valve. Background Art
[0002] Flange valves are common control components in industrial piping systems, widely used to shut off, regulate, and guide fluids. To temporarily shut off pipeline flow during maintenance or operational procedures, blind plugs are required. However, existing blind plugs often face technical difficulties during installation, impacting their effectiveness and safety.
[0003] For example, geothermal heat pump air conditioning systems are typically equipped with valve groups for switching between winter and summer operating conditions. Each season requires switching valves to switch the heat pump system between hot and cold operating conditions. Most valves fail to close properly after a few cycles, leading to water leakage between the terminal and the heat source. If the heat source is well water or lake water, the terminal will continuously replenish water, causing the unit to malfunction, wasting energy and water, and even damaging the unit and other equipment. If the heat source is an underground pipe, low-pressure operation on the ground source side cannot be guaranteed, increasing the risk of underground pipe rupture. Many underground pipes cannot be found after a rupture, resulting in irreparable damage. To resolve these problems, valve replacement is usually necessary, but valve groups contain multiple valves, making it difficult to determine which valve is leaking properly. This makes valve replacement costly and difficult, and the replaced valve may still not close properly.
[0004] During installation, existing blind plugs often lack a secure connection between the gasket and mounting platform. This can lead to misalignment during valve installation, resulting in reduced sealing performance and potential leakage. Furthermore, the lack of effective positioning and support mechanisms during adjustment and securing of existing blind plugs can easily cause the plug to shift during installation, compromising installation precision and sealing effectiveness.
[0005] Blind plugs offer significant advantages in these applications due to their ease of installation, time-saving, low-cost, minimal workload, and immediate effectiveness. For example, existing techniques typically use bolts and nuts to secure blind plugs directly. However, this approach fails to ensure accurate positioning and securing of the gasket, and can easily lead to seal failure due to installation errors. Furthermore, the lack of effective support and positioning during valve closing makes it difficult to maintain a stable position of the plug, adding complexity and uncertainty to installation and use.

[0011] The positioning assembly includes a positioning column that passes through the adjustment slot, a blocking piece is fixedly connected to the positioning column, and a nut is connected to the positioning column;
[0012] Support components are provided at both ends of the positioning column.
[0013] Furthermore, the number of the mounting platforms is set to be multiple, and the multiple mounting platforms have different sizes and are coaxially arranged.
[0014] Furthermore, a limiting groove is provided on the side of the mounting platform, and an embedded piece adapted to the limiting groove is fixedly connected to the side of the sealing gasket.
[0015] Furthermore, a positioning ring is fixedly connected to the side of the mounting platform.
[0016] Furthermore, one side of the baffle is fixedly connected to a limit block, and the limit block is embedded in the adjustment slot;
[0017] The outer side of the positioning column is provided with a thread.
[0018] Furthermore, the support assembly includes a vertical plate, a top side of the vertical plate is fixedly connected to a socket, and one end of the positioning column is inserted into the socket.
[0019] Furthermore, the bottom end of the vertical plate is fixedly connected with an arc-shaped seat.
[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0021] The flange valve blind plug of the present invention solves the problem of unstable connection between the sealing gasket and the mounting platform in the prior art. The sealing gasket is embedded in the limiting groove of the mounting platform through the insert on it. The cooperation between the limiting groove and the insert ensures a stable connection between the sealing gasket and the mounting platform, avoiding misalignment between the sealing gasket and the mounting platform during the process of installing the plug on the valve, thereby effectively avoiding the risk of leakage caused by sealing failure.
[0022] The utility model features multiple mounting platforms of varying sizes, coaxially arranged, allowing for selection of the appropriate mounting platform based on the size and requirements of the valve. This design improves the versatility and applicability of flange valve blind plugs, better meeting the needs of diverse application scenarios and reducing installation issues caused by valve size mismatches.
[0023] The positioning assembly, through the coordination of the positioning post, retaining plate, and nut on the adjustment slot, secures the adjusting piece to the valve. Specifically, the positioning post features threads on its outer side. By tightening the nut, the adjusting piece is securely fixed between the retaining plate and nut, providing reliable support and fixation. This structural design ensures that the blind plug remains in a stable position during installation and use, preventing it from shifting, thereby improving installation accuracy and sealing effectiveness.
[0024] The support assembly consists of a vertical plate, a socket, and a curved seat. One end of the vertical plate is inserted into the socket, supported by the curved seat on the outer side of the valve, further ensuring the precise and stable installation of the blind plug. The curved seat, through its curved structure, provides stable support, preventing the blind plug from shifting during valve closing. This improves the blind plug's installation accuracy and sealing effectiveness, ensuring the safety and reliability of the valve during use. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0037] See Figure 2 The number of mounting platforms 11 is set to be multiple, and the multiple mounting platforms 11 have different sizes and are coaxially arranged; this design allows the selection of appropriate mounting platforms 11 according to the sizes and requirements of different valves, thereby improving the versatility and applicability of the flange valve blind plug.
[0038] See Figure 2-3 A limiting groove 111 is provided on the side of the mounting platform 11, and an embedded part 21 that is compatible with the limiting groove 111 is fixedly connected to the side of the sealing gasket 2; this embedded design not only enhances the connection strength between the sealing gasket 2 and the mounting platform 11, but also ensures the accurate positioning of the sealing gasket 2 during installation and use, thereby effectively avoiding the risk of sealing failure.
[0039] See Figure 2 A positioning ring 112 is fixedly connected to the side of the mounting platform 11; the positioning ring 112 is inserted into the inner ring of the valve, ensuring the stable positioning of the regulating member 12, preventing the blocking piece 1 from shifting during the installation process, and improving the installation accuracy and sealing effect.
[0040] See Figure 2 and Figure 4 One side of the baffle 32 is fixedly connected to the limit block 321, and the limit block 321 is embedded in the adjustment groove 121; this design ensures the stable positioning of the positioning column 31 in the adjustment groove 121, thereby further ensuring the stability and reliability of the positioning assembly 3; a thread 33 is provided on the outer side of the positioning column 31, and the nut 34 is tightened by the thread 33, which can fix the adjusting member 12 between the baffle 32 and the nut 34, providing reliable fixation and support.
