[0022] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, an explosion-proof regulating valve of the present invention comprises a regulating valve body 1 arranged between the pipelines 3, and both ends of the regulating valve cylinder are installed with end plates 2 of annular structure, and the end surfaces of the pipelines 3 are installed with connecting flanges 4, and the opposite surfaces of the end plates 2 are thickened. The inside of the end plates 2 is annular and provided with multiple chambers, and the chambers are provided with positioning holes at one end facing the connecting flange 4, and axial holes are provided at the other end of the chambers. Limit blocks 13 are provided in the chambers, and positioning columns 5 are installed at one end of the limit blocks 13. The other ends of the positioning columns 5 pass through the positioning holes and are inserted into the screw holes of the connecting flanges 4, and the other ends of the limit blocks 13 are installed with shaft rods 15. Both ends of the regulating valve cylinder are sleeved with pull rings 12, and the other ends of the shaft rods 15 pass through the axial holes and are installed on the pull rings 12. The outside of the end plates 2 are threadedly connected with locking sleeves 6, and one end of the locking sleeves 6 is movably installed with multiple positioning blocks 9 that conflict with the connecting flanges 4;

[0023] Among them, the main body of the regulating valve is an explosion-proof regulating valve, which is an industrial valve widely used in flammable and explosive environments.

[0024] In this embodiment, a plurality of mounting portions 7 are protruded on the outer ring surface of the locking sleeve 6, and a positioning groove is provided on the inner ring surface of the locking sleeve 6 opposite to the mounting portion 7. One end of the positioning block 9 is inserted into the positioning groove, and the other end is set to abut against the outer end surface of the connecting flange 4. The positioning block 9 is provided with a screw rod 10 hole passing through the positioning block 9, and a sealed bearing 11 is embedded and installed on the outer end surface of the mounting portion 7 opposite to the screw rod 10 hole. A screw rod 10 is installed in the inner ring of the sealed bearing 11, one end of the screw rod 10 is threadedly connected to the screw rod 10 hole, and the other end is installed with a grip rod 8.

[0025] In this embodiment, the outer ring surface of the end plate 2 is provided with an external thread, and the inner ring surface of the locking sleeve 6 is provided with an internal thread. The locking sleeve 6 is engaged with the external thread on the end plate 2 through the internal thread.

[0026] Among them, a rubber ring can be embedded in the middle of the inner ring of the locking sleeve, and the rubber ring can seal the gap between the end plate and the connecting flange, thereby increasing the sealing effect. The gap between the two can be blocked by the locking sleeve, thereby further increasing the sealing effect.

[0027] In this embodiment, a compression spring 14 is sleeved on a section of the shaft 15 located inside the chamber. One end of the compression spring 14 is mounted on the limit block 13, and the other end is mounted on the inner wall surface of the chamber.

[0028] In this embodiment, the diameter of the positioning column 5 matches the inner diameter of the positioning hole and the screw hole on the connecting flange 4, so that the positioning column can be accurately and stably inserted into the screw hole of the connecting flange, thereby increasing the accuracy of alignment.

[0029] In this embodiment, the inner diameter of the chamber is set to be larger than the inner diameter of the positioning hole, so that the limit block is restricted and prevented from moving out of the chamber.

[0030] In this embodiment, a retreat space is provided between the positioning block 9 and the positioning groove for the positioning block 9 to be fully retracted, so that the positioning block can be completely retracted into the positioning groove, thereby avoiding affecting the disassembly of the regulating valve body.

[0031] During installation, the shaft is pulled inward through the pull ring. The rotation of the shaft drives the limit block and the positioning column, causing the positioning column to retract into the positioning hole, and the locking sleeve rotates inward until the end face of the locking sleeve does not protrude from the outer end face of the end plate. At this time, the regulating valve body can be directly moved between the pipes. After releasing the pull ring, the elastic energy of the compression spring pushes the limit block and the positioning column outward, so that the positioning column can automatically be inserted into the screw hole of the connecting flange, thereby completing direct and precise alignment with the connecting flange.

[0032] After the above is completed, the locking sleeve is moved outward along the external thread by rotating the locking sleeve in the opposite direction of the grip rod until one end of the locking sleeve moves to the outside of the connecting flange. At this time, the screw rod can be rotated by the grip rod, and the rotation of the screw rod drives the positioning block until the positioning block is moved out of the positioning groove. After moving out, the locking sleeve can be rotated inward by the grip rod to make the locking sleeve move toward the regulating valve body again. During the consideration process, the positioning block can come into contact with the outer end face of the connecting flange, thereby pressing and sealing the connecting flange and the end plate.

[0033] On the contrary, after rotating the handle in the opposite direction, the rotation of the handle can drive the screw again, and the rotation of the screw can make the positioning block enter the positioning groove again. After losing the obstruction of the positioning block, the locking sleeve can be detached from the outside of the connecting flange, and after removing the positioning column, the regulating valve body can be directly taken out from between the pipes, which greatly facilitates disassembly.

[0034] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that do not require creative effort should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be based on the scope of protection defined in the claims.
