Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] A ball valve has a spherical body with a central hole. It is opened and closed by a ball held between a seat and a valve body. The JIS B0100 valve glossary defines a ball valve as "a general term for valves with a spherical body that rotates around a stem within the body. There are two types of valve bodies: full-spherical and hemispherical."

[0003] However, the existing gas pipeline safety ball valve has the following disadvantages:

[0004] (1) The existing gas pipeline safety ball valve has a weak fixing function. When in use, the existing ball valve has no self-locking function when opening or closing. The sudden closing or opening of the gas pipeline will cause adverse effects and increase the risk of gas transmission;

[0005] (2) The existing gas pipeline safety ball valve has a weak sealing function. When in use, the ball valve of the existing technology may cause wear at the joint due to long-term rotation, resulting in gas leakage. Utility Model Content

[0008] Optionally, an annular groove is formed at the bottom end of the connecting rod, and the annular groove is clamped to the top end of the first spring.

[0009] Optionally, a connecting plate is fixedly connected to one side of the pipe, and a second limiting ring is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting plate. The second limiting ring is fixed by the connecting plate. When the ball valve is opened, the rod can be inserted into the second limiting ring and the connecting rod can be fixed, thereby avoiding collision and closing the ball valve.

[0010] Optionally, the first limiting ring is consistent with the width of the insertion rod, and the first limiting ring fits the insertion rod.

[0011] Optionally, a connection groove is provided on the top of the sphere on one side of the insertion rod, and the connection groove is fixedly connected to the fixing ring.

[0012] Optionally, the width of the sphere is consistent with that of the pipe, and the sphere fits closely to the pipe.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0014] The gas pipeline safety ball valve is provided with a pipeline, a ball, a connecting rod, a plug rod, a first limiting ring, and a first spring. When in use, the connecting rod is held and rotated to drive the ball. When the interior of the pipeline needs to be sealed, the connecting rod is turned to the side of the ball, the plug rod is held and pulled upward, and when the plug rod moves to the top of the first limiting ring, the plug rod is manually released. The first spring can push the plug rod to fix it in the first limiting ring. Compared with the existing technology, there are more working steps when closing, forming a self-locking function, and increasing the safety of the ball valve, thereby preventing the valve from opening due to accidental collision and improving the safety of the device.
